Pick Up Stix

5 star for what it is, Chinese fast food. This place is hands down better than most of the other fast food shops around. Their lunch specials are the best deal they got. The regular orange chicken and bourbon chicken are great, fried rice is better than the chow mien (IMO). Cream cheese wontons are on point too !!!

Great food with healthy options & good service. I eat here often since I work nearby. The reward system is nice to earn free items after multiple visits.

Walked in and ordered food to go. One shrimp and one chicken entrée. Got home and found out I paid for shrimp but they packed some chicken with vage tables instead. On top of that food was tasteless, rice container was overpacked and main items under packed. No desire to go back.

I’ve never really been blown away by the service or food quality here. Not sure if it’s better or not at other locations. I don’t think of Pick up Stix much when I’m looking for a fast casual spot. But occasionally my partner comes up with a good coupon and we grab some take out here.
On the last visit a few days ago we witnessed the cashier being really bitchy to what seems to be a very nice older Indian lady that was trying to get some take out. There was some communication gap with the fact that her ATM card wasn’t working and the cashier was just no help at all. The lady was showing her ID and just seemed to not understand what the problem was. I really felt the cashier could have been more helpful.
Coupled with the fact it ain’t all that good here anyway, coupon or not, I’m not really interested in returning here.

Our lunch was fantastic! We ordered the family special… Chicken chow me in, Kung Pao chicken, House chicken and cream cheese wontons. Everything was perfect and Alfonso was awesome! He was very friendly and helpful taking our order, served it, took an order to go and took our plates away when we were done with a big smile. Sooooo nice to have such good service!!! Thank– you!

Got lunch to go today, husband had orange peal shrimp (prepared mild) and I had Buddhas Feast. We also got spring rolls and cream cheese won tons. We’ve been frequenting this place for over a decade. It’s always good. The food is always fresh. My order is always customized and prepared correctly.

We had pick up stix cater our graduation party for over a hundred guests. Karen in the catering department was fantastic. Food was great, it was packed well and they gave us plenty of condiments. So nice that all the paper goods didn’t have the store name printed on everything which made it even nicer. I would highly recommend pick up stix for your next party.

I love this place most of the time. :)
They have a great Manager named Armondo who is great at customer service not to mention he’s been working there for about 6 years I think.
Good Stuff

When you are looking for the store front, it’s at the end of Vons. The store is very clear, organized and the customer service is amazing. The food is good and it might take a bit to make, but is because they cook the food right. Also there is a restroom in the store.

been coming here a few times for lunch and its been great. until ¹²⁄₁. I got food poisoning after eating their teriyaki chicken for lunch. BLAH!!!

Been eating take out here for year.
I suggest anything to do with their house special sauce.
I usually get the house tofu extra crispy and extra spicy.
For the people complaining about it being Americanized, yes it slightly is but guess what then go somewhere else.

I dont come to pick up stix often probably because when they first opened in the late 90’s I ate it way too much. but I like their food alot. their soup is my favorite and the combo rice. won ton appetizers are good too. This store is always clean. friendly people work here its a smaller store they have a few seats inside and some outside which is nice when it’s sunny. I take my food to go and order by phone and they never screw up the order. Im a happy customer.

A quick dinner before going to Disneyland.
Ordered house special chicken and orange chicken.
House special chicken ($ 8.29): chicken in a sweet sauce. The sauce is similar to teriyaki sauce and I always get this dish at Pick-​Up Stix.
Orange chicken: not as good as orange chicken from Panda Express but you can really taste the orange peel.
Fried rice: you can upgrade the steam rice to fried rice but I prefer steam rice. The fried rice tastes very Americanized maybe because they use long grain rice?
Soda ($ 1.79): refillable fountain soda.
3 stars!
Pick Up Stix is almost yummylicious!

I came here the other day to pick up two chicken dinner entrees. I was so disappointed to get home and open the containers and find they were only 75 percent full! I couldn’t believe it. I did not have enough chicken to feed my family that night because of this. I’d advise this restaurant to be more aware of making sure containers are full. That’s what we are paying for!

Love the orange peel chicken! The brown rice is good too.
Since this is one of the menu items offered at the Honda Center as well, now stopping here to pick up Chinese food reminds me of hockey lol. Maybe that’s part of why I like it so much ;)
If you have time to stop for lunch they have a good combo with one item plus rice and a little salad.
The cashiers are friendly, the place is clean, and they’re pretty quick. Usually only have to wait about 12 minutes for take out.

Do not go here. We just ordered $ 170 worth of food today for a work lunch. As we set it all up it smelled so good… As a coworker was getting ready to look down at her plate… and expected to find house special chicken. Instead found a beetle! Which is fine if your into eating bugs, but we are not. You may think we need to be a little more adventurous and try out the bug, but no we wanted chicken. There for our $ 170 lunch was thrown away and everyone had lost their appetite. Will not go here again will buy lunch for the office else where… Total bummer because we eat there very frequently for lunch! Will not be going back… disgusting!

I’ve lived in this area for a really long time, and I think the food and service has become much better at this location in the last year or two.
When we want good Chinese food in a hurry, we always pick up food here. The Cream Cheese wontons are good, and I’m a huge fan of the Sesame Chicken. My son and hubby both like the House Chicken a lot.
What has really improved about this location is the customer service. I usually pick up food to-​go here during the week, and the new manager is friendly and helpful. She calls me «Miss Tami» and always asks how I’m doing. She really seems to go the extra mile with the customers.
This might be an older location, but it’s always really clean, and there are also plenty of tables both inside and outside to grab a quick meal at lunchtime.
For good food and great service, this Pick Up Stix location is good spot to get food to-​go!

House Special Chicken with white rice is the best!!!
Dine in and you get fried noodle to snack on while you wait.

It was past lunch time and I was hungry. Seeing as AH doesn’t have a great Chinese food selection, I decided why not Pick Up Stix. I decided to go for old times sake, a trip down memory lane… in HS, my friends and I use to come here all the time. I think I had a surprise sweet 16 birthday here. (it’s really not a place for birthdays, my friends are weird). We were immature, actually, no, I think we’re probably still immature. we use to add «in bed» to the end of our fortune cookie fortunes. I did that today. and it was pretty funny. «Your imagination is important in the next month. Act on your good ideas. (in bed).» Do you do that?
Anyway, moving on to the actual food review. I ordered a lunch combo, with shrimp and vegetables entrée, chow mien, and egg roll. Everything besides the egg roll was salty. The shrimp and veggie stir-​fry was a bit too saucy for me. The chow mien was literally just noodles and pieces of chopped garlic. (I prefer the Panda Express chow mien). Anyway, all this was $ 6.70, which was pricey considering it’s too salty and I could have gotten a better deal at Panda Express. The portion is a small (enough for a meal, but not enough to split it into 2, which I would have done with a Panda Express meal), so I guess it’s a good portion for those on a diet. Oooh, and on the menus, it tells you the calorie for the different dishes, which helps for those who are watching their intake. :o)
So, probably not going to come back any time soon… only for old memories sake.

Great Service and Whatevers Food
House Special Chicken stole the show. Chicken was pretty yummy. If you are eating here. this is a must try-​4 Stars.
Cheese Wanton– Nasty. Grose. This is not my type of food. 1 star.
Lunch Special Orange Chicken– Price is right, but not yummy at all.
Ambiance
This particular location has a real cool outside area where you can hangout.-4 Stars. Too bad there were many smoking on my visit.
This is a great place to bring kids for a snack. with the exception that they do not sell milk or any drinking selections for kids other than soda and water.
2.8 and rounding up.
