“O-iza is a treat from beginning to end, with a gorgeous ambiance, fabulous food with beautiful presentation, and caring service. All the details are thoughtful, from the rose water hand towels to the chopstick holders to the candles and light fixtures... You feel special just being in this beautiful space and being presented with such lovely plated dishes!
Our server, Alice, was fantastic! She guided us through the menu and made several suggestions, which were fabulous. We ended up ordering the waygu gyoza appetizer, which has such a nice texture and savory flavor. We also got the sea bass entree, which is served over a bed of risotto and oh man! This was so fantastic! Comfort food and cooked to perfection! We also got the salmon spoons from the sushi menu, also the servers recommendation, and these were a party in your mouth! Bright and fresh! Also, complimentary edemame is provided with your meal and it is the best! There's sugar and a little spice on it so its just so addinctingly yummy! Finally, we had to try the chocolate sesame desert, which had a great combination of flavors and textures!
Overall, we had the best experience and loved the service, food, and ambiance of O-IZA and can't wait to come back to try more!”

“I believe we’ve found our new favorite place for pizza! We ordered two pizzas: Tandoori chicken & chicken bacon ranch pizza. These pizzas were amazingly delicious. I don’t typically like pizza crust, but it was just the right thickness, with the crispiness of a pan pizza. Seasoning was perfect and not overly salty. The deal came with 12 wings and they were delicious as well. Looking forward to trying the other Cali Specialties.”

Mediterranean • $
“The food was amazing! Probably the best Mediterranean food I've ever eaten. The only downside to this place is the location and the small size. We stopped for lunch and the inside dining area was packed. We were directed to the covered patio area, and while I would normally love dining outside, it was quite cold. The patio had portable heaters, but none of those were on or working. We were eventually able to move inside, but it wasn't an optimal dining experience. Amazing food, but I would stick to takeout.”

Left at 6 pm and restaurant was maybe 1/3 full. If we hadn’t come you would have lost a $200 + tab. When you were not booked at all. Maybe hostess needs to be re trained so you won’t lose business. Food was excellent as always.”

The spices and flavors of everything were good. The garlic Naan was perfect because it didn't overpower the food with the garlic. Customer service from Baram and the others was great!

“I love the outdoor patio seating. There is a huge fountain in the center of the patio, large plants all around, and it has a ‘Paris Cafe’ feel. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, and the food arrives quickly and hot. The food presentation looks like it came from a travel magazine. The food is reasonably priced, for the amount of food that you get. The food is delicious every time. Everything on the menu is delicious! I would highly recommend the Breakfast House. They make the best Belgian waffles in town and they use fresh strawberries, whipped cream and cinnamon sugar dust! The bacon is crispy and savory and the eggs are fluffy and rich. The crepe eggs Florentine were delicious as well! They also have a full bar, so you can enjoy a mimosa with your brunch!”

“My husband, mother-in-law & myself came here for the first time because it was recommended by my sister-in-law and the waitress is super friendly. My mom and me got the Pho1 and my husband had menudo. He rated it an 8 and I give the Pho a 8 as well. Next time I’ll order it without some of the meats but I wanted to try them to see if I liked them or not. The Thai tea was really good. The guy that works there is also super nice and took pictures of us because he saw my MIL trying to get us all in the shot. They just go above and beyond here and we’ll definitely be back. It’s a 20 min drive for us but well worth it. I would recommend this place to friends and family. Thank you for everything today. We really appreciate it.”

“Food is always fresh and the line goes quick even during busy hours. Most of the staff are friendly although some can sound a little rude but that’s because they’re busy all the time. Most of the time my order comes out correct but there was one time where they made a mistake, make sure to confirm they got your order correctly when they repeat your order to you. Overall still better than some other In-N-Outs; any In-N-Out you go to though will be an excellent experience 99.9% of the time!
Vegetarian options: Ask them for a “Grilled Cheese”, basically a cheeseburger without the meat patty (cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions of your choice, spread sauce, toasted buns). Like any other burger and their fries, you can get it “Animal Style”, with pickles, grilled onions, and extra spread sauce. Their Fries are fried in 100% sunflower oil. Remember to ask for a side of banana peppers if you like a little heat/tanginess with your meal!
Kid-friendliness: They have paper hats for kids to wear.
Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking spots in front of entrance as well as indoor seats dedicated for wheelchair users.”

“Lucy's Gorditas is a cute and unassuming hole-in-the-wall place, but don't let that dissuade you from trying out their delicious food. It was my first visit today, and it will definitely not be my last. I ordered the 2 Gorditas Combo and selected the Tinga de Pollo and Rajas gorditas with a side of refried beans. I ordered online and the food was ready and waiting when I arrived. Quick friendly service out the door. I really like the Rajas gordita and the beans were SO flavorful! The Tinga de Pollo was pretty good as well, but the Rajas was definitely star of the show today. The meal included a small side of shredded green cabbage and some pickled red onions with both a red and green sauce. Both were very flavorful and had just enough kick to them. Not only was the price incredibly reasonable for today's economy (just over $10 with tax & tip), the food was delicious and filling. I am so happy with them that I will likely make this a weekly lunch spot since I work just down the street. Thank you Lucy!!”

We got the chicken plate and loved it so we went back for the beef plate. They come with rice, hummus, salad and some vegetables. The sauces that were drizzled over the meat were delicious as well. I have to say this was the best tasting middle eastern food I’ve ever had at a Freano business. Can’t wait to try the quesadilla and fries.”
Hamburger • $
“For how small it appears on the outside, the inside feels welcoming and spacious. There are two full booths inside for dine in; I sat inside while I waited for the to-go order. All the employees were kind and welcoming. The interior was clean and well maintained. There were about five parking spaces outside (with outdoor and indoor seating if you wish to dine in) and small but recently paved parking lot. Parking lot has entrances and exits onto both Broadway and Divisadero.
As a One Piece fan, I'd give bonus points for the One Piece wanted posters on the far wall. These guys are the real ones.
The food was good. Burgers were a solid 8/10, fries were hot, seasoned, and crispy, the milkshakes were on point, and the "large" drinks were massive enough to justify the "no free refills" sign behind the counter. Two large double cheeseburger combos (including a mountain of fries and Sierra mists), plus two medium shakes came out to only $40, which was less than I was expecting, making this a good value-for-quality sort of meal. I have been here about five times, and the quality and service so far has been very consistent. Will definitely be returning, and I definitely recommend.”

You would never know everything is gluten-free because it is tasty and has a great texture. Their passion fruit tart is one of my absolute favorites. Their focaccia cheesy breads are one of my new favorite thing ever. I've tried both the squash and pepper one. And they are both just so delicious.

My friend has dietary restrictions due to his health issues and this dinner almost didn't happen if it wasn't for Chris. Give this man a raise! We both had filets and baked potatoes, which were excellent, done to perfection, and the steaks were deserving of the term "melt in your mouth."”

“Fine dining does not get any better. This was close to absolute perfection.
We arrived with reservations at their opening, and were promptly seated at my favorite location, a table in the back corner. A young man filled our water glasses without spilling a drop. Our server, Conner, recommended a wonderful Italian-produced Pino Grigio, which was light and fruity with a nice finish. There is not much better than a server who is like a sommelier. The wine list is quite diverse, and certainly adequate in reds, whites, and sparkles.
We got warm, fresh bread, and breadsticks, while we contemplated the menu. The cuisine is strictly meat and pasta, no seafood, but there are many great choices. My wife got the outstanding Minestrone and the Lasagna Parmigian, our niece got the Ravioli de Radiccio, and I got the Escargot, and the Rack of Lamb. Pardon my lack of Italian language here.
The escargot were large, in a tremendous traditional butter and garlic sauce, where the bread came in very handy. The lamb was perfectly cooked to order. I have never seen a lasagna presented like this before. All presentations were meticulous, as I am sure Chef Rafael demands. Dinner was nicely paced. While we were too stuffed to order off the homemade dessert menu, Conner did bring out some complimentary, lemony, wonderful Italian cookies.
We were also greeted at our table by an elegant, gracious lady, Signora Mastro, who reminded me very much of Chef Andrea, former owner of the great New Orleans restaurant the bore his name for over 30 years.
There is something about the Italian people, no matter where we go, that drives them to respect their tradition, and that seems to always make a difference. Signora Mastro is truly a culinary Maestro.”

“We went to this place for the first time, not expecting much. It just looks likes a generic place in a shopping strip from the outside. When we entered, we immediately saw how clean it was and how friendly everyone was there. They were very attentive throughout the course of our meal as well! They have a little robot that brings your food out to you but the server is right there ready to get the food off of the robot waiter. The food was absolutely divine! We got the fish and a shrimp dinner instead of the combination plates. The salads were great as well! Overall, our experience was extremely satisfactory and I would recommend this place to anyone. It was a delightful surprise!”

Seafood • $$
“The food here is DELICIOUS. All the fish dishes are cooked and seasoned well, especially the battered fish, salmon and fish & chips dishes. Even their sides, like the roasted Brussel sprouts, taste amazing! The prices are fair too.
I had first tried their food when a vendor catered to my workplace, and I just had to have it again with my family. Definitely my new favorite place for seafood.
(Photos from 9/8/2024)
Update from 10/13/2024: They changed the Brussel sprouts recipe. This last time I ordered them, they didn't have any of the sweet sauce on it, which was disappointing.
Vegetarian options: There are meat- and fish- free options, but they are limited to sides mostly.
Parking: Parking is difficult to find during weekends and peak hours on week days.
Kid-friendliness: High chairs and a diaper changing table (in women's restroom) are available.

The neighborhood is great (and this is probably the first time i’ve ever paid Fresno a sincere compliment). This place goes on my map of great California brewpubs. Also, dogs welcome on the patio.

“I was in Clovis for business and found Tandoori Night by Googling Indian cuisine near me. It had good reviews so my and my colleague gave it a try. The food was without a doubt the best Indian food I have ever had! The flavors were outstanding and it is clear they are very proud of their meals that they create! I would recommend Tandoori Night to anyone within the greater Fresno area. The service is also outstanding - very kind and willing to accommodate any requests. A+”

“I think the name is actually different now (Los Mariscos) but still amazing food at ridiculously low prices. I felt bad because the quality and care they put into the food was not reflected in the price. They even plated it nicely! I was here on a Tuesday and they have a Taco Tuesday and I'm like there is no way they are even covering their food costs. Had to tip extra to feel ok.”

“Place was great! Cool relaxing vibe with good music and food was great! We stopped in for pick up passing through and Michael was kind enough to whip up a sauce for us for no charge.

“Denny's got us through the Covid pandemic, so get it through the new inflation Depression because you'll miss it if it's gone. The restaurant is pleasant, the atmosphere and music are soothing, the food is enjoyable with variety for everyone, the service is spot on, and the prices are as reasonable as possible--especially the AARP discount. So go and support your local Denny's restaurant this week. Cheers!”

“I haven't been in the Red lantern since 1967 when Virgil owned it with his boyfriend Rick, I remember when they tore down the wall that was connected to the liquor store and put in dance floor, I help them set up the first sound system I was the very first DJ there. I really miss that place I had a lot of good times there if you know what I mean!!! Inside outside haha on the patio. I was looking to see if the express still existed but I didn't see it but I heard there's a new bar called the splash, I don't know if that's where Express used to be or not but it looks like Fresno's really growing up for our gay community I was the first cook in the restaurant at Express, yeah Fresno has some good times for me I hope to come back and visit again soon anyway president love you miss you dance on party like it's 1999 LOL oh yes the last song I used to play at the lantern when I was DJing was we are family and that will never change God bless Fresno!!!”

“The food and service was excellent, The wine list is unnecessarily over priced good selection but at least $50 higher than same wine in similar quality restaurants , the restaurant was very quiet for a Friday night mostly corporate and business tables, I would go more often for the food but lacks atmosphere created by couples having a fun night out .”
