Spicy chicken (w/no salad)
Michael M.

Love the food but the inconsistency of spice and amount of food while ordering TO-GO is frustrating. Ordered Spicy Chicken with no salad again and the amount of meat (6 pieces of chicken) is sad. They filled the to go box with rice to fill the gaps which was nice but put LESS chicken then ever done before. Eating in is never the problem with service and food, but 9/10 always have a problem with To-Go orders.

Burrito with rice need sauce on the rice
Taylor A.

I tried the beef kebab burrito. The burrito was pretty good. The rice was horrible was dry. I wish I would have some of that white sauce stuff on it. I don't know, though. It was pretty good. The tortillas was grilled a little too much on the burrito but other than that it's good.

We were promptly greeted and given the Orion to pick our seating. They actually have three seating areas and we selected the back room. While it was a slow night there were lots of take out orders that kept our server busy. However she kept up with checking on us and filling our water. No wine or beer is served. The bar is an artifact left over and kept for historical reasons. The appetizers are more American than Mediterranean. However the table enjoyed them. The election of entrees are a mix of Mediterranean and American infusion. The portions are larger. I recommend the garlic sauce on side as it I generously smothered over the food. Everyone enjoyed the meals.

Hummus Shawerma with chicken. It was spectacular. But fair warning, the garlic in the hummus could break your whole AND date!

To start, this suite is much larger than I anticipated. They essentially have 3 dining rooms. The main entrance leads you to the barroom (room 1). They allowed us to sit where we would like, so we selected the room towards the rear, modest dining hall with decorations (room 2). I would say one problem about this room is that the ceiling fans catch the ambient light (both artificial and natural) and reflects it back at the patrons, which could be headache inducing. And the room that was off-limits at opening is more a classical style room, most likely intended for packed houses and dinner time. The lasses at the front were both very nice. They served us immediately and the water tastes filtered (yay!) my wife and I shared a plate. The Hummus Shawerma with chicken. It was spectacular. The chicken was well-seasoned and rich in herbs. It sat atop the hummus, which lent the juice flavors to the olive oil and tomatoes. And the pita bread did its part in supplementing the dish. But fair warning, the garlic in the hummus could break your whole AND date! The restroom was very clean and well stocked. And again, great positive customer service! If ever we return to this town, this'd be the spot!

Birthday lunch for my son. He loves this place. My 2nd time. Excellent service. Delicious food. Couldn't finish. Large portions. Quiet because we went middle afternoon before dinner crowd.

Spicy Chicken
Michael L.

Favorite of ours when visiting Hanford! Let's be honest, this town lacks an abundance of good places to eat; However, this is one of the few! This place offers a sit down, relaxed atmosphere with attentive service and tasty food. Best part? It's all very affordable for what you get! If you are looking for dinner in Hanford this is your best bet.

Back dining area
Victoria B.

Ambiance: Very nice! 3 separate indoor dining spaces--1 next to bar, another in back & 3rd is banquet room (where we were. Note: Banquet room isn't accessible. 2 steps on both front & back of room). Otherwise, rest seems accessible. Service was very good. They had the Yelp Elite offerings printed as a menu. Order: Greek Salad w/Beef: So so good! Lots of beef that was tender, well-seasoned & cooked beautifully medium-rare. Nice size salad overall. Gyro & Fries: Gyro meat nicely moist, well-seasoned & tasty. TONS of fries...so many fries! My tiny critique is more veggies & tzatziki sauce would be great. I asked for extra sauce & no problem. Great value for the price. Hummus & Falafel Platter (substitute hummus for baba ganoush): Baba ganoush was tasty w/chopped tomato garnish. Falafel were nicely crispy outside & light & fluffy inside. Good seasoning! Overall, I see why they're so highly rated. First time to Hanford, came here from Fresno (50 min away) for a Yelp Elite event. Cute, busy Main Street area. Food was good enough that we'll come back here again. Also, got free plastic wine glasses from Yelp.

Excellent service. A lot of food. Big menu. Delicious. Perfect ambience. Everyone was really happy with their meals. Several leftovers even.

Good Grief !! Where do I start?! At the beginning, Jim…read more.. OK, so I'm in Hanford, California doing a favor for a friend after a long day working in Los Angeles then driving 3 hours! My options??? Grabbing some snacks at the hotel or taking the spectacular advice of April and Naesha at the front desk of the Fairfield Marriott, my hotel for the night. They also said that the Steak Bites were fantastic. After a quick shower, I took the 5 minute ride to the restaurant. Independent building, fairly nondescript but classy enough. Easy access with plenty of parking. You enter in to a dark, classy Italian restaurant. A large , open dining room straight ahead, and a small (but really cute) bar to the left. I chose eating at the bar, and I'm happy I did. Raquel, the Bartender took care of me with humor, seriousness, smiles, and incredible recommendations. Ordered a nice Zin and started perusing the menu. The nightly "specials" menu looked great, but the regular menu nailed me. Before I could even begin to make decisions, their bread arrived at the table with a small bowl of marinara sauce. Maybe the best I've had... EVER! Raquel was literally describing the recipe after I raved. Should have asked for a copy! Guess I knew then that I was about to be thrilled! I ordered some of the steak bites for the ladies at the hotel, then proceeded, knowing I was about to overeat AND take a feast back with me. Always a Caesar Salad as a starter, asking for it not to be overly saturated and they nailed it. Just a personal preference and this is massively nit picky, but just a hint more anchovy paste. Raquel then steered me to Shrimp Avocado Crostini as an appetizer. It truly left me speechless, and that's virtually impossible (just ask my kids). The perfectly toasted Crostini's, thinly sliced, a smear of the avocado, then a spoonful of heaven! I mean the warm shrimp goulash, salsa, soup... heck, whatever it was, was pure perfection. Limited myself to 3 pieces, about 9 bites, and only consumed about 1/3. For my main course I opted for a chicken dish as I often do. I chose the Spicy Chicken Chipotle with Penne Pasta, Blackened Chicken, bell peppers,edamame, mango... Now as I'm already achieving some pressure on my belt, all just have a couple bites. OOPS!!! Yup, it was THAT good! And it came out hot, as it should, a thing many restaurants miss on. I was confused after my first bite because it was unnaturally sublime! I devoured it!!! Just left enough to add it to the bounty traveling back to the hotel. Truly some of the very best pasta I've had anywhere. So now I'm stuffed and she comes over and says a naughty word, DESSERT! Crème Brûlée Cheesecake sound ok? Sure, I reply. Light, fluffy, not overly sweet, luscious caramel sauce... two perfect bites and into a to go package. The food, 10/10 The Service, 10/10 (Thanks Raquel!) The Atmosphere 9/10 Don't know if I will ever get the opportunity to return, but if I do it would be my honor to have a chance at trying more of the beautiful menu. Bon A-petite' Cheers

I was excited to try this restaurant since there aren't many upscale dining options in our area…read more The food was good and I enjoyed my meal, which is why I'm giving it a few stars. Unfortunately, the service was very slow. I sat in the bar area during happy hour and waited over an hour for my food. While I understand happy hour can be busy, the restaurant didn't appear overly crowded, so the wait felt excessive. Communication from the staff about the delay would have made the experience much better. The food quality was the highlight of my visit, but the long wait and slow service made the overall experience disappointing. I hope they can improve their timing because our community could really use a great local dining option.

I took both of my daughters here for lunch and ordered the Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp…read more Since it was a weekday and there were plenty of open tables, I expected the service to be fairly quick. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. It took nearly 45 minutes for our food to arrive, and when it finally did, it was only lukewarm. Since the Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp is served on a skillet, I was expecting it to arrive sizzling hot, but it wasn't. That said, the food itself was good. The chicken and shrimp were cooked well, the seasoning was flavorful, and we enjoyed the taste. I also waited quite a while for drink refills but eventually gave up. Even the tabletop ordering system didn't have our drinks available to reorder, which made things a little more frustrating. Our server, Briana, was friendly, attentive whenever she was able to help, and had a great attitude. My only real disappointment was how slow the overall service was and how long it took for our food to come out. Despite the delays, we still had an okay experience. We'd be willing to come back and give them another chance, though we'll keep our expectations a bit lower next time.

I can't speak for the restaurant if you're dining at a table, but if you decide to grab a drink and…read morea bite to eat while sitting at the bar, my experience has always been fantastic on a the weekend.. Marrisa and Brie, the two bartenders who work on Friday and Saturday night, are fabulous. Both are very experienced at mixing drinks, and not afraid give you what you paid for. My food has always been very good for a restaurant at this price point, and the service on point. I had the 12 ounce rib eye cooked medium rare with two sides for $26. I usually pay $50 for just the steak in most restaurants in the South Bay and the sides are extra. If you're looking for an $80 meal, go somewhere else, but don't complain when you get the same meal for $30 and the meat is prepared a fraction off.

Staying at The Irwin Street Inn and Restaurant was a wonderful experience. We stayed at the Inn…read morefor the first time in March 2024. We were met by Ricky, the Manager, and a very friendly and accommodating person with many interesting stories to tell about the Inn. He does an excellent job managing the Inn and he made our stay that much more enjoyable. The Restaurant and main part of the Inn is a historical landmark, built in 1886. The interior of the Inn and Restaurant are beautiful, with antique furnishings, stain glassed windows, tables overlooking the expansive courtyard, lined with trees and a stately Camphor tree that is over 100 years old. The restaurant offers a wonderful dining experience, with polished antique wood including the full-service bar, stained glass windows and lovely artwork. The menu offers many choices, the chef is excellent and the prices are more than reasonable, Our room overlooked the courtyard. The Inn is very quiet with the only sound being the soothing sound of a train in the distance. We couldn't have been happier with the room, high ceilings, adorned with antique furnishings, a large stained glass window, lovely artwork, and a very comfortable bed. The room was very clean. The highlight of the room was the large Victorian tub. We were to learn that someone quite famous recently stayed in our room. If you are a cat lover, there are a couple of friendly resident cats that like to interact with the guests, one lovely little cat named "Keno" who made our stay all that much more enjoyable. The Inn is just a few minutes' walk from the beautiful Civic Center Park and the historic Hanford Fox Theater, one of the few remaining theaters built in the 20s, which is fully restored to its 1929 elegance. The Park also has many restaurants, cafes and shops. Hanford was declared one of the 12 "Hidden Gems" in America Better Homes and Garden magazine and Architecture Magazine. The Irwin Street Inn location is perfect for exploring Hanford. Whether it is for planning a business convention, planning a Wedding, or just for a weekend getaway, The Irwin Street Inn is the perfect place. If you are planning on exploring the Sequoia National Park, the Inn is less than an hour's drive to the Park. We could not have been happier with the Irwin Street Inn and cannot recommend it highly enough. You are guaranteed to have a wonderful experience staying there. We hope to be back soon
