    Food was not bad but not authentic of course. Service was a miss but it was calm and quiet inside.

    Our party of 4 preferred and opted for a table in the bar area with our favorite server. We enjoyed our drinks, breadsticks, salads, soups, and pasta. Always delighted with the music selection. Hopes to return soon.

    Came to Olive Garden in Clovis with my family for the Never-Ending Pasta Bowl ($16), and it was such a good experience. We did the online check-in, and even though the restaurant was packed, our wait was only about 10 minutes for a party of six. Huge perk! We were seated in a booth, and our server Erick B. took care of us. From the start, you could tell he was hustling--this guy was everywhere at once--but he still managed to stay on top of everything. He asked about drinks, tried to upsell appetizers (which I get, that's part of the job), but more importantly, he was attentive. He brought waters right away, checked in multiple times, kept the soups and pastas coming, and made sure we had cheese on everything. He may not have been the most smiley or chatty server, but honestly, I respect servers who focus on making sure guests are taken care of. He worked hard and did an amazing job--seriously, shout out to Erick B., he deserves a raise. As for the food: everything was hot, tasty, and came out quickly. The soups were flavorful, the pastas hit the spot, and the portions were huge--two of us ate for about $32, and we still had leftovers to take home. Great value, great service, and a solid family dinner spot.

    This was a great experience. We don't go to Olive Garden often because I can make pasta at home, but today was a special occasion and Olive Garden was chosen. Based on pictures we took in 2016, they had updated the interior decor. The atmosphere was nice. Our server was Jason and he was so accommodating and friendly. He made us feel welcomed and taken well care of. He made sure to fill our cups as soon as he noticed without us even having to ask. He made our experience great. The food was a good value for the price. I got the Tour of Italy which comes with lasagna, chicken parm, pasta Alfredo, and the never ending soup/salad. Their salad is always delicious, but I really liked the chicken gnocchi soup. Too full to even take advantage of the free refill of the never-ending soup! We had a coupon for a free appetizer for making an account so we got the toasted ravioli. Omg that was so good! My husband ordered the Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo. The steak was soft and delicious, but the Gorgonzola Alfredo was not yummy at all. That's the only reason I took off 1 star. It kind of tasted like vomit. Otherwise, a fantastic experience with lots of food (I would even say it could stretch to an additional 2 more meals) and a great server. Will definitely return.

    Everything was amazing!!! The food and customer service are top notch First of all we came in 1 hour before they closed with a party of 7 and they accommodated to us with a great smile Darlene the server was amazing! Amazing customer service, a smile on her face at all times, checked in on us constantly always refilling our drinks and soups, she was so patient and made a connection with us with her customer service The manager should be proud of her and all her staff by focusing on customer service (:

    The food is always delicious here! The staff were helpful and really kind! The vibes are always good here especially with good friends!

    I ordered a different type of pasta and got this

    Don't order online unless you want a completely screwed up order!! Even if it gives you a dropdown section where you can state exactly what you want, they don't do it. Wasted $30 on 1 meal that I won't eat. I'm never going to Olive Garden again. No onions, look there's onions. Wanted a different pasta, nope you'll get what you get

    Great service, everyone was so nice and helpful, we felt really comfortable here. Our food was delicious, came out hot and tasty! The booths were comfortable and the restaurant had really nice pictures, was clean and welcoming. Would recommend and will be back

    Honest Review The…read morefood was honestly pretty mid. The pasta tasted mid and was a little disgusting, and it didn't really have much flavor. The burger was okay but definitely overcooked and not very juicy. It was missing some flavor. The garlic fries were probably the best thing we ordered. The hibiscus lemonade was decent, and the mocktail we got was actually really good. As for the service, some of the staff were really nice and welcoming, but I did feel a little uncomfortable toward the end. When I asked if I could pay with cash instead of card, I got the impression that the person seating us assumed I was going to leave a tip and seemed disappointed when I clarified that I was just paying cash. I also felt like some of the servers were giving us an attitude afterward because we didn't tip. Overall, tipping is a personal choice, and I don't think customers should feel judged or pressured because of it. Some of the staff were genuinely kind, but unfortunately the food and the experience weren't enough for me to want to come back.

This was the rough equivalent, more Mediterranean style - and they serve cocktails and froyo. You would think there was a happenin' club here - massive line curved around the building. I was so glad that I placed the order online and there was a dedicated window from which to pick up orders. I ordered the tri-tip with sides of sautéed veggies and sweet potato mash and a baklava froyo. Yummmmmm! Beef was very tender , sides were delicious and the froyo was a great dessert (tons of baklava on top and in the middle of tart froyo). I don't think I would ever torture myself by standing in the line to eat here - but apparently Fresno peeps think this place is bourgie lol (according to my daughter). Think maybe a slightly elevated Mendocino Farms.

My only quibble would be the amount of food for the price is inconsistent. If you get the bowl, especially the kids bowl, the amount of chicken is solid. If you upgrade the price to get the plate instead though, the amount of chicken is almost the same. You get the other sides and stuff true, but it isn't as good of a value in my opinion.

They have their meats rotating on the spit. Today I tried their lamb plate. The plate comes with salad, rice, garlic sauce, hummus, and pita bread. I also got a side of falafel. The lamb was very tender. However, I am not a huge fan of the gamey taste of lamb, but my friend loves it. We split the plate, and she was in heaven. The falafel was good with the sauce. I would try one of their other meats if I go back again. The salad that comes with the plate is delicious. I love the flavor of the dressing. It has the sumac taste to it with tomatoes, cucumber and onion. The service was great. Even though it's not full service, we were checked on several times and we felt well taken care of.

QUICK TAKE Get: Build Your Own Bowl/Salad, any of the signature bowls Skip: Soups Know: Fresh ingredients, tons of customization, and they provide the macros, which makes ordering much easier if you're paying attention to nutrition. The biggest win here is how easy it is to build exactly what you want. You can start with romaine, white or brown rice, black beans or roasted garlic potatoes, then add chicken, steak, ceviche, tofu or vegetables and choose from a huge list of toppings and sauces. Build Your Own Salad/Bowl: My favorite way to order. Everything we had tasted fresh, especially the produce, and there are enough toppings and proteins that you can make it as healthy or indulgent as you want. Signature Bowls: There are a lot of good options if you don't want to build your own, including the Skinny Buddha Bowl, Mexcellent Bowl, Teriyaki Bowl, Vegan Bowl and Perfecto Protein Bowl. Soups: The current menu features their Chicken Pozole Verde, but the soups were the one part of the menu we wouldn't bother with again. Nothing felt like sad "health food," and the vegetables were fresh and crisp both times we visited. All of the produce was super fresh and the protein was delicious.

    The Local has a ton of potential. My family and I were excited to try a new restaurant in Clovis ,…read moreand ran across positive reviews of this place. We headed in at an odd time yesterday around 230pm. It was late for lunch and too early for dinner. Nevertheless, we were seated in the front dining area, and ordered some entrees. The menu offers a lot of familiar favorites that you would expect to see at a a bar/ restaurant. Burgers, sandwiches, salads, and a few specialty plates. For my meal, I ordered The Local burger (no pickles of course) which was absolutely fantastic. Piled high with cheese, bacon, lettuce and tomatoes - this burger was executed to perfection. I ordered it medium, and it came out medium (imagine that). The best part was the sunny side egg that was placed on top. That first bite was heavenly. The yolk breaks, and all the goodness adds a little extra flavor to the already delicious burger. The shoe string fries were seasoned perfectly- I highly recommend this entree. The only thing I would add next time is an element of spice to take things up to another level. My wife ordered the BLTA sandwich , with sweet potato fries. I didn't try a bite because I had enough bacon on my burger , but I did sneak a sweet potato fry , and it was fantastic. My son order the chimichurri steak , he seemed to enjoy it although it may have had too much sauce on it for his liking. Perhaps it would been better if he ordered the sauce on the side. My picky daughter ordered the pesto chicken sandwich ,and she said it was pretty good. My family and I were full , but weren't going to let the dessert options pass us by. My family has a sweet tooth. We all shared the chocolate cake and bread pudding . Both are nice options if you need something sweet to top off your meal. The food and vibe of this place deserves 5 stars. I will deduct one star for the mediocre service and inconsistent food prep. Our meals were coming out one by one which made it awkward when trying to eat together. Our server didn't offer refills on our drinks , and didn't bring us utensils -until we asked for them. I will be back to try more menu items , and enjoy a cold beer while watching the game.

    Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The restaurant was not busy when we arrived, but…read morethe service was extremely slow. We waited a long time to place our order, another long wait for our food, and then an especially long time just for our server to return and run our credit card. The timing of the food was also frustrating. My husband and I received our short ribs and mac and cheese and were nearly finished eating before our son finally received his burger. The food itself was okay, but nothing particularly memorable or worth the long waits. We really enjoy supporting local businesses and always hope to find new places to return to, but based on this experience, we will not be coming back.

We were promptly seated on the patio, but after 15-20 minutes we left without ever being served. Not one staff member acknowledged us. We still had all our menus on the table, no water, and even had a highchair brought to our table after we asked our server to bring it to us when we were seated--so it was obvious we were there and had not been helped. What made it worse was that the tables around us were seated after us and received water, drinks, and even an appetizer from the same server, while we were completely ignored. When I spoke to the manager on the way out, instead taking ownership, her first response was an apology followed by, "The host must not have told the server." That may explain it, but it doesn't excuse it. The manager had a great opportunity to own the mistake and try to make things right. Instead, she offered an excuse. Very disappointing experience.
