    Toffee nut Latte
    Bryan A.

    Took a quick stop on Tesoro Vallejo (spelling) on the way up to Bass Lake. Love Axis coffee shop. Staff is friendly and made small conversations regarding local live events on Thursdays. Staff also recommended the Toffee Nut latte and it was so good. The place has that small coffee shop feel to it with its modern brick look. Will make it a point to stop in when out of town

    Fine dining arrangement

    We love Axis. We come here frequently for an easy dinner or a bit of live music and a drink. The kitchen has had some turnover and they've got a new chef, who has recently started to try a prix fixe menu. We really enjoyed the Italian dinner with wine pairing from Solitary Cellars. The rosemary focaccia had a great body and a good crisp, it dipped well in the olive oil and balsamic glaze that accompanied it. The squid ink aranchini were showstoppers. Wow! They came with a beautiful sauce as an accompaniment and I hope that these make a return one day. The tomato sorbet that followed as a palate cleanser featured a bit of fresh mozzarella, a splash of olive oil and a bit of basil to make a refreshing surprise. The gnocchi was delicious and clearly hand made, fresh and delightful the sausage and broccoli and just a bit of heat blended together into a dish that exceeded expectations. I'll start by saying I'm not typically a fan of polenta. I find it tends to be a bit dry and bland, but the chefs did a fantastic job in creating a very palatable, rich, and creamy polenta that had my wife and I both surprised. The porchetta was rich, crispy on the outside and decadent when paired with the polenta. The broccolini was not overcooked and was well seasoned, lending to a fantastic trio for a main course. The tiramisu was light and delightful, coffee forward and flavored just the way that we enjoy it. For what I believe was a first stab at a finer dining experience, they did a great job. The service was smooth and attentive and the food was great. It was very interesting to see the space transform from what is usually a fairly lively coffee shop into a black linen Dining room. We hope to be able to come back again for future tasting menus!

    Sunrise Sammie

    Came here for brunch and wanted to give this place another shot as it has had a change in chefs and the reviews in the community are mixed. We honestly were surprised how lively and busy it was for a late Sunday morning. The service was great. The food did take a bit to come out but they were reasonably busy. Coffees tasted great. The alfalfa sprouts were a nice, fresh, addition to both the avocado toast and the breakfast sandwich. The avocado toast slightly missed the mark for me as the poached egg was not runny. The breakfast sandwich was delicious. I would definitely come again and try out their other menu items.

    Cinnamon Roll iced soy latte & Dasher's Mocha oatmilk (salted caramel). They are both really good.

    We have found the customer service lacking the last 3 times we've visited. So 1 out of four positive experiences is a terrible average. I ordered a Dasher's Mocha, they entered it into their POS, then they started to ask each other ¿What is that? Then they pulled out their phones. I'm thinking to figure out how to make it. It was a good salted caramel mocha. My wife ordered a soy Cinnamon Roll latte. It was good, but wished they had asked if we wanted the milk cold foam that came on it, as that would be a natural no. The crowd that tends to gather here are just as unkind as the staff/baristas. The only good experience I had with another human was an older couple. Thank goodness they balanced the scales a bit.

    On a road trip and made a quick stop here. I got the Sunrise Sammie and it was good. I got an Iced Chai Tea Latte with Almond milk. The staff was really nice and the location itself is quiet and clean. I would definitely stop by again.

    I came here to try their breakfast burritos. This establishment is located in Tesoro Viejo in Madera. The staff is very nice and so are the customers. It's a cute little coffee shop that serves beer and food. The food was really flavorful and fresh. They serve Peet's Coffee as well. Definitely check them out .

    Such a cute coffee shop to enjoy a nice brew or pastry. Yes Axis is indeed smack in the middle of a developing neighborhood but it is worth the visit if you're in the area. Serves as a great place to visit with friends as there's coffee, a bar, food items and plenty of space to hang. It reminds me of a mini-brewery honestly. Service was great and there's plenty to choose from.

    This is a perfect pit stop coffee shop to grab a bite and get some work done on your laptop. This place is attached to a home sales office and is smack dab in the middle of a brand new community in Madera. I popped in for a quick bite and some coffee and was pleasantly surprised at how cozy and clean it was inside. There were plenty of places to sit and a good mix of older and younger people here along with a few business type folks getting some laptop worked done. I ordered a breakfast burrito with sausage and a cold brew with oat milk. The burrito was basic but tasty. The cold brew with the oat milk was delicious! I was surprised at how velvety smooth this coffee was and with no bitter aftertaste. The Wi-Fi here was stellar. I was surprised at how fast it was with the amount of people here working. I think if I bought a home in this neighborhood, I'd probably be at this coffee shop at least 3-times a week!

    This establishment is spacious, airy, and modern. It was packed on a Sunday due to a car event, but the line move swiftly. We had no problem finding a table to sit at so we could enjoy our food. Speaking of food, everything was delicious -the charcuterie board at only $12 was plentiful and great quality. The burrito and the avo toast was also a big portion and worth the money. They serve Pete's coffee here, I didn't get to try the coffee, but definitely want to go back for that. They have a wine menu as well, which would pair nicely with their charcuterie offering! After enjoying our food, It was nice to walk around the area, the ambience is nice here and will for sure come back soon!

    They don't care

    Just over a year ago, this was one of my favorite coffee spots, but something must have changed in management because now it's a disaster. The service is terrible--I just bought a coffee, and the entire transaction was cold and impersonal. No eye contact, no smile, no greeting, no thank you. The place itself is a mess. I was the only customer, yet the space looked neglected. The outdoor furniture is stained and falling apart, the inside tables are sticky, and the furniture is haphazardly placed. It's clear they don't care--they're just here for the money. I wouldn't even consider buying a house in this so-called community. If this is how they run a simple coffee shop, I can only imagine how bad the new homes must be. I won't be back, and I'll be sure to let everyone I know how far downhill this place has gone. It used to be great, but now it's just awful. I asked what kind of soup they were going to have today. The cook had no idea what the soup of the day was going to be. I wonder what the kitchen is like. Does the health department do on site inspections?

    BLTA and Burger were great. Large. They also serve wine and beer. Service was fast and the place was very clean. Today they had a nationally known singer, home for the holidays, Valerie Salcedo. I will return.

    Hands down the BEST quality breakfast I've had in Fresno! Far exceeds Red Apple and even, despite…read moremenu differences, Yolked. Loved: 1) Before 9AM, NOT busy. Easy to get a table. Weekends may be different... 2) LOTS of parking and big spaces, unlike at other breakfast spots. Wide parking... 3) Food comes out HOT! Unlike red apple with their lukewarm potatoes/gravy. 4) Music is low volume background. You CAN actually have a conversation and enjoy folks if eating with others. 5) NO TVS!!! 6) Limited menu help ensures QUALITY and attention to detail. 7) Subtle complexity of flavors that REALLY differentiates from the crowd. 8) NOTHING is over salted. They let YOU season and determine YOUR level of preference/tolerance. 9) Service is excellent. 10) Friendly clientele.... I held a couple conversations with others in the restaurant. Very casual and laidback. 11) Humble decor that isn't overdone, busy or crowed. Not loved: 1) NOTHING stood out! They had a '2 for 1 special.' IF you've read my reviews you know that means that I sometimes order TWO entrees and I--ONE PERSON--polish them both off! GB3 AHOY! Ordered: 1) Water, no ice, no straw. 2) Biscuits/gravy ala carte. 3) Beni bowl, extra hollandaise sauce. Detail: 1) Food comes out HOT. With REAL steam coming off! Something overlooked and under appreciated at other restaurants. 2) Textures were intact and varied, even noticed with something like the a humble potato! 3) The beni bowl had both chorizo and bacon in it. Each was cooked perfectly and they didn't include all the GREASE from cooking both of those up! The poached eggs were fantastic and... 4) Both the hollandaise sauce and the country gravy had deep complexity and subtle interesting differences. Again, something missing from most breakfast places in Fresno. 5) Today, I ATE the actual biscuits that came with the gravy. Something I don't think I've done for YEARS! They tasted fresh, textured and were NOT SALTY like lessor quality options. 6) Pricing is so reasonable! Honestly, I've had this un-scratched breakfast ITCH for the longest time that never gets scratched. That all changed today! I'm refreshed getting plugged in with a restaurant that gets subtle differences, quality, textures and flavors with staff that IS actually connected to what comes out of a kitchen, what competes and stands out among similar options, how it TASTES! Thank you always Lord for both the resources and the opportunity to enjoy even a lessor meal in Fresno. But man, I appreciated this end of the spectrum. Keep up the good work, Branch! I notice everything! -G

    4/10/26 Time for an…read moreupdate! Especially since seeing they have a special on carrot cake pancakes! Yummy! Called & ordered that & a ham veggie egg white omelette with salsa and hash browns. The worker was great. Happy to get it set up. Said it would be ready in 15 minutes. Arrived!! Greeted, very kind worker, paid for it and waited....definitely, very busy, but that's a good thing! Probably about 30 min total, but still received it with good day wishes!! Happy Sunday everyone!! Order split! Carrot Cake pancakes are WOW!! DELICIOUS!! Flavorful and the frosting topping makes it even better!! Egg white ham veggie omelette 1/2 is OUTSTANDING!! Definitely the best I've had!! Good amount of ham, fresh veggies & salsa adds spice to top it off!! GREAT!! Hash browns were tasty & GREAT too!! I'm sure mother will enjoy hers & feel the same when she gets up to have it. Good service & GREAT breakfast! They deserve every star!! Highly recommended!! Oh and very much worth the wait to get!!
