“The best place to party ,friendly atmosphere and quality of service.”
“I’ve been following Jojo’s social media for over a year, eagerly waiting to try their food, but my work hours always made it tough to stop by. Tonight, I finally made it about 30 minutes before closing, and I’m so glad I did! Rushelle and Savannah made my wife’s and my first visit unforgettable. They gave us amazing recommendations and let us try the mojo sauce (which was so good!). The food was delicious, but the exceptional customer service from Rushelle and Savannah truly elevated the experience. Thank you both for making our first visit so special—we’ll definitely be back!”

“This was a tiny bit hard to find, but the door is on the right side of Starbucks on Main Street. The inside is a little uneventful, but that's not a reason to stay away from this magical place. They have a beautiful display of pastry offerings in their tiny showcase. And their bread shelves are all the way to the back of the room behind the counter, so its a bit hard to see what they offer on those. I came for a proper French croissant and cinnamon roll but left with a sack full of pastries! Trust me when I say you will not be disappointed in these excellent laminated buttery delights. We will definitely be back for true artisan bread and pastry!”
“Highly recommended! We love the customer service and variety of flavors!”

“We found this place on the way back from Yosemite. The food is UNBELIEVABLE! We tried as many things as we could. Tacos, Empalmaditas, Chalupas were all great. Birria, Asada, and Pollo all had awesome flavor and were cooked perfectly. Loved the tortillas. Juan was super cool. He gave all the info we needed on what to try and made sure we had a good experience. Will definitely make this a regular stop every time we pass through. Don’t forget to try the Agua Fresca too!”

Our server was friendly and attentive and she made sure we had a great dining experience ( which I found very refreshing since so many places don’t even bother asking) Plan on taking my friend my neighbor there this Thursday for her belated birthday lunch! Keep up the good work Bistro Di Bufala! Menu is so inviting! You will want to taste everything!”

“Absolutely love Left of Center! Always the best service, food, drinks and atmosphere. We celebrated a birthday tonight and Sarah was our server. She went above and beyond for us! Highly recommend the Jalapeño Burger with sweet potato fries, but ultimately everything has great flavor and delicious. Do not hesitate to have lunch or dinner at Left of Center! I only wish they were open on Sundays.”

“Amazing food! Everything tasted so FRESH!!! Best Mexican food I’ve had in a long time!! The owner makes everything fresh, service was FANTASTIC, waitress/cashier we had was so friendly, and just the right amount of attentive. The owner came out to ask how we liked the food- he was VERY personable, humble, and makes things with heart! Many of the recipes are family recipes! Our favorite new place! ( don’t be fooled by the location, this place is a true gem!)”
“The food isn't amazing but it's a chain restaurant so I wasn't expecting anything amazing. The wait times are insane. Download the app and reserve a spot before hand or else you're gonna be waiting at least an hour for a table”
“Shoutout to Lucy who answered all of our questions and was attentive to us all evening despite how busy it was. The food was delicious. I took my brother who had never been there before and he absolutely can’t wait to go back again. Excellent team and service! I love that we can join the waitlist from the app.”
“Best tasting chow mein I've had. I could tell the shrimp and vegetables were very fresh. The noodles weren't as crispy as I'm used to, but maybe you have to ask for it to be that way. Great service, very attentive.”
“I ordered a chicken Naan. was given the wrong order by mistake. called the store and Jaime was super friendly to correct the mistake. I couldn't come in same day but rather 2 days later. they made me a fresh Naan and even added in chicken Tikka Masala. it was amazing. service is amazing and they are super friendly. I'm rating this place a 5 star! love it ❤️”

“Today, the food just doesn't taste like it used to. The burger didn't smell like the grill which usually smells like it's been off the grill. Like it's been microwave. The fries weren't heated up either. Losing the touch.
Parking: Plenty of parking available on site.”
“Honestly only go when I get the coupons because its expensive otherwise and unfortunately you can't use the coupons in the app, so that sucks. But the food is great and the staff is always very friendly.”
“Good great! Staff were so kind! I haven't had JIB for 8 years!!! It hit the spot!!”
“My grandson's love the place, especially the playground, I like the staff that bring us the food on our table,he is exceptionally courteos,I hope the rest of the staff are on the same page....”
“Cleanest and nicest jack in the box I’ve ever seen. Stopped by on the way to Yosemite. All I got was an Oreo shake but A+ experience. The place looks like a canes inside.”
“Excellent seafood! My favorite is the camerones el mojo de ajo (shrimp with garlic & butter). You get a lot of shrimp and it is well prepared.”
“I go to get my Chicharrón in the morning. This spot does not miss Prices are questionable but if you’re looking for an authentic Mexican Carniceria. This is your spot.!”

Takeout Restaurants
“Everything I order was phenomenal! Fast & friendly service! The waitress staff are very attentive and has excellent customer service. All the staff are friendly. If you are looking for the best & freshest sushi, this is definitely the spot in Visalia! So many selections to choose from and not over priced for quality food. This is my new favorite spot. Nice & quiet atmosphere.”
“Been seeing this place for a while. Stopped in to try it out. It was so good. Will definitely be coming back”
“Lived in Visalia for 20+ years and I've always seen this place but never gone. It's easily the best Chinese food in the city in my opinion. A sweet older Asian couple are the only people working and they are very friendly and accommodating. The food is absolutely DELICIOUS. And the price is cheaper than most if not all the other Chinese places in the city. We got broccoli chicken, broccoli beef, and orange chicken with fried rice and chow mein and I will absolutely come back and try the whole menu.
The flavor of each dish was so POP WOW AMAZING. Definitely recommend to anyone craving delicious food. Me and my fiance cam back and ordered ONE lunch special plate for the both of us and it was plenty of food. Good portions.”
“I had take out dinner twice and also ordered the california burrito for lunch the next day ( visiting the National Parks) . The food was consistently flavorful and fresh. I made it around 8:30ish each night and had quick and friendly service.”
“awesome pizza place! ordered some pizza on football sunday, decided to try this place and it was amazing, quality ingredients, cool atmosphere and the ranch was fire!!”
“The food here is not only delicious but also prepared cleanly. I like the white rice with chips, adding a variety of proteins like chicken, octopus, and tofu, along with the unique spicy sauce and medium sauce. The meal feels so strange!”
“We got the Beef Bulgogi and egg rolls tonight and everything was so delicious.”
“It’s the best homemade food around. Also not outrageously priced. The waitresses are very nice. If you haven’t already, I highly recommend The Corner Cafe.”
“Delicious cookies. Crunchy on the rim but soft in the middle. I admit I also go in for the experience. They have fun and make you happy you went in.”
“Great food and huge selection of vitamins and herbs! Definitely recommend this place!”
“I had to retract my review from my previous review of this place because I have been back here a few more times as of recent. The pho is pho-nomenol. Pun intended there. The banh mi sandwiches is one of the best in the area. Make sure that the lady is there, who makes these sandwiches. I will recommend this place to anyone who love pho and banh mi. The price is on point and the atmosphere, well you're sitting in the middle of a mall walkway area, so if you're not into people walking by you, the seating is not for you constantly, but the food is worth it.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“We like A&W. Especially since they have the "Zero" option for the root beer. The one thing that's baffling is the price of the cheese curds has just sky-rocketed. We all know - everything has. We like cheese curds. We order them when we go to the local baseball games too. But what's weird is they're actually more expensive for less of them then you get at the stadium. And stadium concessions are not known for being cheap.”
“My husband and I love this place! We go every week just to beat this heat and to eat their delicious soft shaved ice! The workers here are very friendly as well and fast. Great prices. The only thing I recommend is more shade or water sprayers cause it’s so hot where the sit down area is.. other than that, perfect business. ♥️”
“It’s a great little drive-in, food is great, and they even have protein shakes.”
“love going to the human bean, super fast and friendly service”
“Very helpful. Delicious coffee. I had a hot decaf espresso with Irish cream and HWC. Yummy!!”

“Great food great service and newly renovated with a beautiful outdoor patio! After you’ve taken your dog for a walk in the dog park enjoy lunch or dinner. Dogs welcome on patio!!”
“Shoutout to Lucy who answered all of our questions and was attentive to us all evening despite how busy it was. The food was delicious. I took my brother who had never been there before and he absolutely can’t wait to go back again. Excellent team and service! I love that we can join the waitlist from the app.”

“This is the first time I’ve ever stepped foot in this place and I’m glad I did! Food was yummy, service was quick and staff was informative, welcoming, and friendly. Price was good. The only thing for me was, the scallops. I don’t know if it was the heat that day, but when I got home, it didn’t taste all that fresh. Everything else was delicious. I tried the 3 protein bowl which was around $15 as of 8/2024.
Ambiance is family friendly and chill. Would definitely come back for seconds!
Come check them out :)”
“Our wedding cake by Shelley was absolutely stunning, but more than that, she conquered making a gluten free, sugar free, dairy free cake perfectly. It was honestly the best I have ever had and I would order from her again anytime!”
“So excited for them to come to Visalia! Love visiting Strathmore location”
“Great food and great service. But just a heads up to the owner or manger this week while i was waiting for my food i saw a cockroach on the floor in front of the register and it went under the soda machine.”
“La Fiesta Burger has been a favorite for our family for years, getting close to a decade. Their make one of the best burgers since Mearls on Mooney Blvd. They make a great Milkshake just wish they were bigger! I just try and keep telling myself, our American portions lg, bigger, jumbo and super jumbo (I have no idea what sizes are in order) this had to be helpful obese problems!
So I don't recommend changing anything!”
“Had this absolutely incredible wrap today and I cannot recommend it highly enough, absolutely delicious. Staff were so friendly and helpful too!
Oh and the cucumber and jalapeño lemonade... game changer!! So good.”
“Better service this time around, didn’t have to wait as long, but wished we were greeted when we walked into the store. Always feel ignored when we go to this store lol”
“Ever since I first had California Fish Grill’s fried Swai, I’ve enjoyed eating here. Since finding that they have grilled mahi mahi on the menu, I am loving the place even more. If you have never had mahi mahi, I HIGHLY recommend it. Mahi Mahi is a mild, flaky, white meat fish. It’s from the tropics and, to date, is only wild caught. If you like halibut, you’ll like mahi mahi. I prefer it with the garlic butter as I really want to taste the delicate flavor of the fish. Don’t miss this local Visalia, CA eatery. If you like fish, it’s a must!”
“The Best Sandwich Shop Hands Down Great Service Treat U Like Family The Pastrami Roast Beef Avocado ? The Best ? The Crab ? Sandwich The Turkey Club The Best My All Time ”

“A fun place for billiards and to see familiar and new faces. They have a smoking area. New people come in all the time. It's got a good vibe. The staff is great. Tip like you mean it, they work hard. The people are diverse. That's for sure! But that's how I like it.THURSDAYS they do karaoke and Ashlee rocks the house every week!Drinks are $6 on average. They remodeled the bathrooms lately (early 2022 probably). They have one large pool table and 4 regular sized tables. A juke box, 2 dart boards, a change machine, and free water. It's cool. I'll be back.”
“Food is good and the servers and staffs have a great customer service. i give it a 4.5 ⭐️!”
“Everything!! Lots of fun and good food and drinks.”
“This is a delightful little wine bar downtown! They have small bites and a wonderful wine and beer selection. The bartender was really nice. I had a great time here and will definitely be coming back.
Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free flatbread options”
“My cousin took us here on Halloween day while we were visiting. I had never tried the spring rolls with the clear wrap but, glad we did! They were very good along with the main dishes. My wife tried their Pho and I had the chicken broccoli. We also ordered a roll, wish I could remember the name or have gotten pics of the menu.
Overall it was a great experience, I would definitely return next time I visit.”
“The employees are knowledgeable about their business on pizza ? and the establishment is clean ? it's just a little small ! Having the atmosphere geared to eat and leave quickly ! not having very pleasant seating ! Chairs are hard and packed like a sardine which doesn't make you want to sit and enjoy but stuff and grub and go ! But the food is good ?”
“We usually go in on Tuesday for the taco special however the tacos are good here on the other days of the week as well ? Good food and service every time I go in 5 stars”
“Great service and attention to detail the seasoning was different than I expected but not bad. Shrimp a little overcooked. Seafood is tough to get perfect. You'll always better off pull it out a bit early. Breaded fishes and shrimp continues to cook once removed from heat.”
“I was on town today and found this place by luck as it is a place that I will go out of my way to say hi to the good people that work and sit on my favorite side of a bar.”
