New American Restaurants near Clovis, CA

“Took a little while, but food was great! The only issue was the server did not tell me that the chili was an add on, she said "Sub". She also did not mention that it was going to cost $6.00 more. I would not have gotten for that price. Clear communication is important. She was nice though in her favor. Otherwise, extra star would have been given.“

“Where do I begin!? I have been wanting to try just Jo’s since I moved to Fresno but their cinnamon rolls are so popular sometimes they sell out because they make the dough early in the morning themselves! But today I got to try it and I can see why it’s sold out. This place gets a 1000000/10 me and my kids lovedddd the cinnamon roll French toast. Just Jo’s understood the assignment. Ima French toast connoisseur and I never before tried any French toast that came close to just Jo’s. It was absolutely amazing and I’m oh so picky and never leave good reviews. Not only was the food amazing but the service was stellar! Darlene was so sweet and kind she looked out for me since I brought my kids without help. She’s a true gem! Seriously this is the best food spot in Fresno based off that cinnamon roll alone :) Cinnabon could never hunny !“

“My girlfriends and I like to do monthly dinners. Sometimes we get to try places we haven't been to before. One of the gals chose Trelio to venture to this particular evening. All I have to say is this experience was fun! I loved it. It is definitely a different dining experience than what I am used to. Trelio is located on Clovis Avenue in Old Town Clovis. Parking is available behind the restaurant or in front. We found the parking to be easily available. Reservations are required. They have four options for seating when you make your reservation. You can choose from their main dining area, library, garden patio or bar. Their website gives a detailed description of each. We chose the dining room when making our reservation. When you arrive at the restaurant, you will be immediately greeted. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Once you get to your table, take a peak at your menu. It has the last name of person who made the reservation on it. We thought was that pretty cool and a great personal touch to make us all feel welcomed. The menu is a prix fixe menu, but the dishes will change seasonally. There are two options to choose from. The option is their full menu which is a delicious 9 course meal. The second option is their abbreviated menu which is a choice of an entree or dessert. We decided to go with the 9 course option. This was a great experience as you got to experience various dishes. The staff who served us would describe each dish to us as they brought it out . Each dish definitely stood out on their own. I definitely recommend that you try out Trelio if you are looking for a very unique dining experience.“

“I've been here twice so far. Great spot to hangout out and watch sports with a large number of TVs all over. The Avo Smash burger was flavorful, grilled with a nice crispy on the outer edge. Tater tots were crunchy. I've also enjoyed the turkey melt with house salad too. Always a good portion size.“

“It was St Patty's day and of course I had to have an Irsh car bomb ? added two orders of bone in Buffalo Wings delicious ?. Our waitress was very pleasant and although it was extremely busy she provided excellent service. Cheers ?“

“We came at their busy lunch hour around 1 PM. The line was long, and the line moved pretty quickly. I had to wipe the tables and chairs/bench because there were some food crumbs on them. The seafood was pretty good. The white rice in my bowl was a bit dry today (maybe from the bottom of the rice cooker). Other than that, their poke bowls are delicious.“

“Went with a group of family and had to wait for the food so we started with drinks. Our host was very friendly, and had a good knowledge of the wine and the mixed drinks, and recommended a few things which we were pleasantly surprised.We went with the cheese and meat board first and it was pretty good. Different plates and the skirt steak with green sauce was well made.Overall a really nice place with a great vibe and decent tasteful food.Recommend“

“The moment we walked in, the rustic charm of the place, coupled with its pristine cleanliness, immediately caught my eye. We were seated promptly, which was a pleasant surprise, especially considering how popular this spot is known to be. The staff at Old Town Waffles added to the welcoming atmosphere. Our waitress was not just friendly, but also incredibly helpful, guiding us through the menu with genuine enthusiasm. For our breakfast, we decided on the waffle sandwich, a vegetarian omelet, and, of course, coffee. When the food arrived, I was taken aback by the generous portion sizes. It was a delightful sight - the bacon thick and sizzling, the avocados fresh and creamy, and the potatoes cooked to absolute perfection. What really makes Old Town Waffles stand out is its status as an independently owned establishment. It's a refreshing change from the typical chain restaurants, with each dish reflecting a commitment to quality and a passion for great taste. The attention to detail in their cooking was evident in every bite. The eggs in the vegetarian omelet were cooked just right, complementing the perfectly crisp and non-oily country potatoes. A special mention must go to their salsa - it's a must-try, striking the right balance between flavor and spice, enhancing the meal without overpowering it. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her dish of veggies, eggs, and potatoes, which was prepared with the same care and attention to detail.“

“Great holiday weekend in Fresno. Hosting friends at Heirloom is a must when in town. Fernando and Team never disappoint with great and fun service. The food quality sets the standard for Farm to Table Cuisine. Great value and always memorable!“

“First timer here for my sister's birthday celebration and the experience was phenomenal! Food portion was smaller than expected but they were beautifully presented and delicious. Cudos to the server and other members who catered to our needs. They were very friendly and customer service orientated. I am definitely returning for round two!“

“I do not like seafood at all. Pismo changed my mind completely. Fantastic food and service! The manger sat us and down and made me feel welcomed. Incredibly kind and thoughtful. Bonded about Austin and then had amazing food that he suggested we get. Couldn’t have asked for a better 1st time experience. Thank y’all“

“Wait staff was wonderful! She was helpful but not hovering. Water glasses refilled as needed! The food is always great. The menu built to please anyone. We were welcomed warmly and seated right away. We've been going to Max's for decades and are never disappointed!!“

“It was my first time at Viva Be Bowl'd and oh my goodness the good was great??! I would describe it as a Mexican poke with a twist, you can pick from many different bases( rice, salad potatoes etc) proteins and toppings, you can definitely mix and match as many flavors as you'd like and I promise you will be full. It is such a great and healthy alternative I'm definitely rating this one as a top five⭐ I forgot to mention that the aguas frescas was the bomb, it's a little bit sweeter than street Aguas frescas but man that balance of sweetness did NOT disappoint, more people need to know about this place????“

“Plenty of options to keep your adventurous side interesting. Approachable choices for the non-adventurous eater. You can keep it simple or mix it up. The staff is always friendly. For what you get, the price is just right. I strongly recommend making multiple trips to find the perfect bowl that suits your palate.“

“Terrific inventive food. Arguably the most imaginative menu in the greater Central Valley area. Unassuming, small bistro in an historic theater building…. You definitely don’t wanna judge this book by the cover. It is one of my favorites. And now they have a bakery too!“

“It was hot outside that my friend and I came in for some drinks until the weather cooled off a bit. It was happy hour.The customer service was great. The bartenders check up on you from time to time. And the place is pretty busy. There is plenty of parking outside.“

“Its been years since we have been here. The atmosphere is fabulous. Old school charm with a warm and friendly vibe coming from thr staff. Food is good, very solid in the quality but not evolved to a more updated menu in what appears a while. Very tasty though.“

“Campagnia's is always an experience. Good drinks, good food, good service. My sorority loves to frequent here for brunch. This time we went for happy hour to celebrate departure of 2 of our sisters leaving in the military. Filled the table up with appetizers and drinks. We had a ball laughing and sharing stories. Life is always good when you share it with people you care about.“

“The food was good. Went on a weekday around lunch and it was empty. The customer service felt a little off. Felt slightly rushed to order food, even though I'd never been there and was looking over the menu. At one point the cashier took a break outside, totally fine. But I guess no one was there to take her spot, so when we went in to ask for a box, it took a while before someone from the kitchen came out, confused as to where the cashier went, and there were other folks waiting to order. But, food was good and the outdoor seating is nice and covered. Will probably try again!“

“We were there to celebrate March birthdays with my kiddos. Good was excellent, service wonderful! Our waiter was so accommodating and even had the kitchen make my daughter teriyaki chicken off menu. Going above and beyond for customers every time we come “

“My son is hooked!! Came in to try about a month ago and he's been back at least 4 times since. Even brought his friends to check it out. I love that he can enjoy his spicy fried chicken and I can feel good about it being a better (healthier) choice overall.“

“Ashley and Maddie are top-notch servers. They are personal, professional, and delightful. We thoroughly enjoy the ambience and the variety of talented artist that we have in our community. I’ve ordered a variety of mocktails that are always amazing, delicious, and attractive! I highly recommend the small salad. With its caramelized walnuts and variety of greens, it hits the spot every time! The servings are always more than enough for the two of us to share. Don’t forget to order dessert. The chocolate chip cookie and ice cream is my first choice, followed by the berry pie.“

“We came to Lazy Dog tonight to celebrate my son’s 21st Birthday we had such a great experience! The staff was great, the manager came out and greeted us and made us feel welcomed, and the food was awesome! We will definitely be coming back!“

“Went on a Very Busy Saturday night and was told 40 minute wait. We only waited 20. The Service was Good for such a busy night. Our Server Greg was Friendly Attentive and suggested a tasty beer to complement my Ahi Nachos and Baja Fish Tacos. Food was really tasty and large portions.“

“Food is delicious (fried chicken sliders, steak tacos, mac n cheese balls, fig burger...I could keep going) and have always had great service. Fun atmosphere & music. Apparently the change in management has been a good thing for this place :)“

“Set in the heart of Tower District, I am used to coming here for drinks so it was fun to come for dinner for my friend's birthday. It's a low lit industrialish vibe inside and the bartender/server was attentive. Their menu offerings are clearly thought out and higher end. I got a sausage ravioli that was outstanding. The sauce was rich and the dish filled me up easily with eating only half of it. I would love to go back and try a couple other things, everything people got looked so good!“

“I was talking to my sister on the phone and she said one of her friends recommended this place for lunch. It was this past Saturday and they had a sign up they were closing at 1:30pm. It was a little past 1pm when we arrived but they assured us it was not a problem. My girlfriend and I split the Libelula Burger because we had been appetizer hopping around the city prior to coming in for lunch. The burger was HUGE! It was perfectley cooked medium which I appreciated oh so much! Everything on the burger tasted so fresh even down to the roll. The ambiance and decor that this place had was so freaking unique. I loved it!! I wanted to purchase some off the wall but didn't think that was a thing haha. Oh, and when your done eating, go next door! They have a little bakery connected!!“

“I enjoyed a medium cook Wagyu Hamburger with fries. Havarti Chees, Bacon and an Aioli spread. A little basic, but flavorful and juicy. Fries were thin cut. They tasted okay. Bartender and servers were prompt and courteous. It could get loud at times.“

“Eat there. Seriously. I loved it. Fun drinks. The food was excellent. I live on the coast but was visiting friends, and this was the perfect place for the girls to get together for dinner and drink. I will go back when I'm in town. Really good.“

“We went here yesterday to eat pizza and watch football. I ate a salad and had pizza, too. The salad was good but I really loved the pizza! The crust was extra specially good. My daughter liked it there, too, because there were lots of quarter machines- lol!“

“This was my first time going to a brunch and let me tell you, I was very pleased! The music, the staff, and the guests showed exactly why the place is called Vibez! the food was so delicious too I would love to experience that again. The mimosas were amazing, just make sure to drink lots of water cause I felt it the next day for sure.“

“Well they have a good menu to choose from. This last visit I ordered pork chops eggs and hash browns the portions was correct the only complaint I have was with the hash browns and that was taken care of by their helpful waitperson. So give this place a try you might find a favorite meal and have a beer, glass of wine, or soda they have it covered“

“Worth the wait. Worth the wait. Did I say worth the wait? If there's a wait, and you have the time...stay, eat and be merry. If not, come back when you have time. Our server was attentative. We shared the lemon pancake with the blackberry sauce-it's so big it's shareable. I can't think of the actual name of the items we ate, but enjoy the pictures below. She had the biscuits and country gravy, with bacon, eggs and breakfast potatoes. I had the fried chicken sandwich with French fries.Parking: There's outdoor seating available.“

“The food was really good. I ordered green chili omelet with wild potatoes. It has the right seasoning for my taste. The coffee was good, the service perfect. I loved the small pancakes they serve very tasty and smart idea you can eat them like in two bites.“
