    Pita with garlic sauce
    Jozel R.

    Arrived with my little family of 4 just around 3:30pm for an early dinner. There was a bit of traffic getting through Old Town Clovis but there was plenty of parking. We were greeted upon entry and we were the only ones there. They have plenty of indoor, outdoor seating and a bar. This place is clean. We were provided with menus as we seat and given a high chair for my 1yo and they gave my 3yo paper and crayons. My husband and I both ordered a plate. I got the chicken kabob plate which comes with hummus, a choice of salad and rice. My choices were fatoush salad with rice pilaf and hummus. My husband ordered combo kabob (2 proteins of choice) he chose lamb and beef. As we waited they brought out pita bread with garlic sauce. Both were very delicious, the pita soft and the garlic sauce was very garlicky with a hit of spice. Our order arrived about 10mins later. Plated beautifully. Noticed the large amount of salad that was provided. The rice pilaf was perfect. My chicken kabob was okay alittle on the dry side. My husband's lamb and beef was delicious. Both tender and flavorful. My fatoush salad was yum, fresh ingredients and perfect zesty dressing. Didn't realize the pita bread that was provided way before our meal was given was the pita bread that was meant for our hummus. We ended up eating it all and sharing it with the kids prior to reviving our entree. Wish they gave more on the side with our main dishes. The hummus was okay it also has a little spice to it. Overall felt it was all okay nothing really special. Our server was really nice and attentive.

    Love the location and service was so nice. Food was really tasty and really appreciate the salad being packed separate so it doesn't get all soggy in the main container. Restaurant is simple with a relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely be back.

    Tete's Kitchen is the newest family run restaurant in Old Town Clovis and as of July 2025, they will have been open for over a month. They still haven't done much decorating, but the food and service is great! I ordered the chicken kebab plate with a Greek salad and the falafel fries. The chicken was flavorful and very juicy. I'd inhaled the saffron rice that came with his plate. The rice was perfectly cooked and the saffron flavor was upfront, but did not overpower the plate. This plate came with an option of fries or two types of salad. One being a Greek salad and the other a classic Arabic salad with chucks of tomato, cucumber, onion, with other herbs. Their hummus was on point and I don't know what the sauce was called that came with my chicken, but I could've drank it, it was that good! Solid food and friendly service. Come give Tete's a try!

    We decided to try Tete's after learning of the Mediterranean cuisine. We went on the Friday b4 V Day, got there at 5:15pm & had our choice of table or booth. My wife chose the lamb kebab ($20) & I chose the Combo kebabs ($25) I had 4 choices of protein, I went w/the beef n chicken. They brought out warm pita bread w/ garlic hummus while we waited. After a short wait, our dishes arrived & the smell was fantastic. My wife loved her lamb & said the pilaf was perfect. My beef & chicken were grilled perfectly. We will try a dessert on our next visit. Our waiter was professional & attentive. Yalla...

    Chicken skewers, rice pilaf, garlic sauce, hummus.

    Saw this new restaurant in downtown Clovis so I had to try. The grilled chicken wasn't rubbery as typical chicken skewers can be. It's definitely charred which I personally like. The rice is perfectly fluffy and not overpowering which is how I expect rice to be. The hummus was a bit too lemon-tangy for me. I did find a piece of foil in my rice which these things happen, so I'm not too mad about that. They also forgot to put my baklava in my bag which is also my fault I should have checked.

    Lamb, hummus, tabbouleh salad and fatoush salad. Pita bread with garlic sauce.

    It was my first time here. I was impressed with the reasonable prices. I appreciated the kindness and professionalism the staff expressed. The food was exceptional. Everything was seasoned well. I'm a huge fan of garlic! I look forward to trying another dish maybe outdoors to view the beautiful buildings.

    Baklava to go
    Alexandra B.

    This place is very good! I got the kids chicken & rice pilaf meal. The chicken was cooked perfectly juicy with great flavors. The rice was cooked perfectly. Their garlic sauce is the best I've ever had; garlicky but not overpowering. I also recommend their baklava; it's clearly homemade & they give you a huge piece of baklava. In addition, the people are very friendly and kind.

    Garlic Fries
    Cierra C.

    First things first walking into this restaurant felt like being welcomed into someone's home. The upmost friendly and welcoming wait staff helped with the menu and serving us our food. Vegetarian food review- I ordered the garlic fries, vegetable kabob plate, and habibi cookie. The veggies had a nice smoky taste and perfect texture. The rice pilaf was the standout to me as is was rich is buttery flavor. The fattoush salad was okay. And unfortunately the hummus was a bust for me as it was way too lemony. Our appetizer, the garlic fries, were some of the best I've ever had. Thin and crispy fries where every fry was perfectly coated in garlic, Parmesan cheese, and parsley. I would definitely recommend those as a starter or substitute for regular fries. Our desert was divine as well a crispy and rich chocolate chip cookie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top will satisfy your sweet tooth. The restaurant was clean and booths are spacious. Our food was brought out to us in a timely manner as well. The menu is on the smaller side but they allow you different options for the sides there's 3 rice options and 2 salad options as well as fries or garlic fries. I will definitely be coming back to try their other menu options.

    Came in for a bite for lunch after shopping in old town Clovis. Did not regret it. The Shawarma's were fresh and delicious. Plenty of meat with red onion and a garlic sauce. My boy jad the fries which i think were from frozen but still were hat and tasted great with a light seasoning on them. We also tried the sabanekh pies which we thought might be like a spanakipita but ended up even better. The wait staff were polite and attentive. Two of us for lunch with an appetizer and three drinks for just over $40.

    Outside seating too!

    6/27/26 Hot & New! Must try! Getting lunch! I called and ordered the chicken Kebab plate with no rice, an extra salad instead. I also asked If she could do regular Falafel instead of fries. That wasnt a problem. The worker taking the order was very kind. Said it would be ready in 15 minutes. I went to pick it up. Arrived. Nice restaurant. Clean and safe. Bar, booths and tables with chairs. Order was ready! Paid for it and left. The person that took my order was much kinder and welcoming than the person I picked the order up from. Oh well! Hopefully the lunch is good. Lunchtime! Order split! Plenty! Chicken kebab was good. Seasoned & tasty. Salad was fresh & tasty. Even better with pita chips in it. Hummus was pretty good. Pretty plain. Falafel was Really Good! Garlic sauce was really good too! Mother said hers was "Good! " Lots of salad leftovers! Good , better service calling in & Good lunch! Recommended!

    Chicken kebab plate

    Well.... We were looking for a good Mediterranean restaurant that was closer to home. We live out by Clovis East. It seems like all the good restaurants are on the west side of town in River Park area. We thought we would give this new restaurant a try. I think they may have been open for quite a while, but I never had tried it nor had. I had any friends that had tried it as of yet. I was very, very impressed with this restaurant. The staff was very polite from the minute. We walked in the door.! We ordered the hummus appetizer, which was absolutely fabulous. Probably the best hummus I've ever had.! I ordered the chicken kabob plate. Sometimes chicken can be dry at these Mediterranean restaurants. I can tell you firsthand that the chicken was probably the most moist chicken kabob I've ever had!! we got the sangria, which was amazing as well! I highly recommend you try this restaurant. It is a great addition to our Clovis restaurants! I definitely will be back!!

    Amazing Lamb kabob
    nick h.

    The owner was very attentive and staff were friendly. Had great suggestions as it was first time there. I have a new favorite place for lamb (apparently sourced from Australia) the rice pilaf was great along with the house salad. The meat thingy I'll call it because I can't pronounce it was a delicious appetizer. It's ground beef, you'll enjoy.... The place was clean and overall I'd definitely come back and try something new.

Super spacious with plenty of tables, outdoor games, or board games to keep you and your company entertained. Everyone here is super friendly from the staff, to the guests, and even their backyard mascot TURKEY! (cat) They have plenty of beer on tap, with some you can request to make beer float. Don't skip out on the pizza here, it's worth it! I got a chance to try their special dill pickle pizza and it was phenomenal. Flat bread with dill pickle and a type of goat cheese.

This is just a beer bar, so beers and seltzers only. I went with the Crow and Wolf Ocean Blast seltzer; a blue coconut, mango, pineapple, and lime beverage. Insanely good and refreshing on a hot afternoon. My wife went a peach seltzer that was just as tasty. We sat in the backyard area, that offers plenty of seating, a few TVs, and a ordering window so you don't need to head to the inside bar to order more drinks. The out area has smoking and non-smoking sections and is dog friendly, but they must be leashed. For food, we went the tri-tip BBQ pizza and a soft pretzel. The pizza was delicious and the perfect size for two people. Huge chunks of tri-tip, spicy BBQ sauce, and very cheesy. I asked for jalapenos on the side for an extra kick of heat. Right now is the perfect time to hit up this place since the weather has been so beautiful. Make sure to check their Instagram page for live music and keep supporting local!

    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.

The Local gets the job done if you need a quick bite during the work day. I tried the BBQ Bleu Burger, which comes loaded with bleu cheese crumbles, BBQ sauce, bacon jam, fried onions, and the usual burger fixings. The burger itself was generously sized, but the patty was underseasoned, and the dominant flavors were mainly the bleu cheese and BBQ sauce. My wife ordered the pesto chicken sandwich and felt it lacked flavor. Our kids split the mac & cheese and a grilled cheese sandwich, but neither was a hit. Even the grilled cheese went mostly untouched, by my kids which was unexpected. On the plus side, the outdoor patio is cozy and looks like a great spot for fall dining with a drink in hand. They also offer brunch, though it's available by reservation only.
