    Enjoyed a dinner at Braised for the first time while celebrating a family member's birthday. Ambiance was 10/10! Such a cute place to relax and enjoy a meal. Our server was very attentive and provided good recommendations. The salmon was delicious, and the bread pudding is my new favorite dessert!

    Braised short ribs on hatch chili polenta
    Crista G.

    What a phenomenal restaurant. The service was great!! Our waitress and bus girl were both very sweet and helpful. The drinks tasted great and the food was amazing. I got the short ribs on hatch chili polenta and all I can say is "Wow!!" It was very tender and flavorful. My hubby got the salmon and it was moist and seasoned to perfection. We will definitely be back ....soon!!

    Surf and turf
    Kathy N.

    Nice ambience, attentive staff, and excellent food. It wasn't noisy on a not-busy Thursday night, thought it could be if full, with the polished concrete floors. We had the wedge salad, surf and turf (sirloin, shrimp, and quinoa) and risotto (seasonal toppings - ours was mushrooms). All were well prepared. Portions are small, but that's fine with quality food, as well as a little friendlier to the waistline. For dessert, we shared a fresh-baked and crusty bread pudding with chocolate woven in and a delicious sauce with a scoop of ice cream, a coffee, and a mocha coffee. All were very good. We offered two menu suggestions at the server's encouragement. One was a fish dish - the only seafood on the menu was shrimp, and my fish-loving husband is allergic. She said they have a a fish special every week but had run out. The other suggestion was a chocolate dessert - it's very surprising to have none except the little bit of chocolate in the bread pudding In its absence, I settled for a few bites of my husband's bread pudding. My 5-star rating is for Tulare, where this is definitely one of the nicer options. In an area with many of them, I'd probably give 4, but still a positive review. A worthwhile spot for a nice meal.

    The pork chop with Yukon mash
    Joey V.

    The food is delicious. Love the pork chop and their chicken and waffles. The place itself looks very nice and homely. The staff is always greeting everyone with a smile and a great attitude. The owner or I think she is the owner is so nice and welcoming. This is great place to have a lovely dinner for two. They do have a small kid selection incase you have the kids with you. But overall, the food is excellent, good service, and a great attitude. Highly recommend for dinner. Just recently found out they now serve lunch. So I have to try it soon.

    Gluten-free calamari and gluten-free fries!
    Nina L.

    So happy we stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant located in Tulare that happens to be very gluten-free friendly! We ended up sitting at the bar and Jeremiah took care of us and he was absolutely amazing! Gave great recommendations and was very attentive. I am so happy that this place exists here in Tulare since they also have gluten-free fried calamari, and a lot of the dishes could be modified to be gluten-free, including their fries and their dessert! Jeremiah's drinks were also ON POINT! He also went completely above and beyond and make sure all of our drinks were to our liking and food came out great. 10/10 experience, would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

    Braised was absolutely delicious and the service was phenomenal. When you walk in you are greeted by a beautiful ambiance. We decided to celebrate our anniversary dinner here and it was a wonderful experience. Our server was very attentive and genuinely friendly. The food was well made and thoughtfully prepared. The flavor that each dish offered was exquisite, with a perfect balance of seasoning and freshness. From the appetizers to the dessert, everything was executed with care and precision. The portions were just right, and the presentation was elegant. It's clear that the staff and chefs take pride in what they do, and it truly elevated our anniversary celebration. We left feeling satisfied, cherished, and eager to return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience!

    Braised Bar has quickly become one of my favorite spots. We love sitting at the bar, the atmosphere is always relaxed and welcoming. The fig pizza is amazing, and the crab cakes are always on point. They also have a great variety of beers on tap, and I like that they're constantly rotating and trying new ones. Always a great experience here!

    My first time visiting, I had a delicious burger, no issues with my request to skip the bun. I loved the look and feel of the location.

    The food, ambience and service were a 10/10. Will definitely be back! We were able to secure a reservation late notice on a Friday and were treated with the most welcoming hospitality.

    First time on a busy Friday night. Shout out to our server who was doubling as a back up bar tender. We had a reservation but ended up eating at the bar as the restaurant was insanely busy. Food was decent however, I'm not sure when we will return. For the price point I wish the atmosphere was a little more posh.

    I have wanted to dine here for quite sometime and I will say I was so happy we finally were able to make it out and have a wonderful dinner. We did arrive early, and only the bar was open. My husband and I had our baby with us and were about to leave but they kindly let us sit in the dining area. The food was delicious! The surf and turf was a great starter I'd say this a must for anyone coming it! Everything else that followed was just as amazing! My stuffed chicken was so yummy very juicy and flavorful. My husband's beef short rib was also cooked to perfection. Desserts were great! I had the marshmallow flourless cake and my husband had a lemon cheesecake with meringue both were delicious. We definitely did not finish dessert we were so stuffed from dinner, but wanted to try out two different desserts. I also had an old fashioned which was delightful! I really enjoyed it. The service was outstanding! Water glasses were always filled, and food was served to perfection. There is also a small event banquet room for private dinners which is a plus. I will definitely be back!

    Brandt Ribeye
    Janell M.

    Came here because my friend has a severe glutton allergy and from last time we came we had a great experience and a lot of options for her to choose from. This time, their menu had gotten smaller and the options were not as good as before. The waitress was extremely nice though and the service was good. We got the antipasto board, my husband got the ribeye since they no longer have the fillet anymore due to cost from what we were told. The ribeye was just not it he said. It was very tough. Another friend got the chicken soup which he said was really good, but the portion was extremely small for a dinner size. The remaining of us opted for the margarita pizza which was good. Our drinks were good as we got raspberry lemon drops. Overall not sure if we would come back again because the options were not worth the drive as we don't live in Tulare.

    We had a dinner reservation and were greeted quickly upon arrival. There were a few tables with other customers and the service was good and the food even better. The accompanying brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes were the perfect pairing. I wish I would have took a picture of our food but only got a quick video. We got two ribeye plates, a pork chop plate and a lasagna for dinner. To drink I had a raspberry lemon drop which was delicious. We also had a lemon crème brûlée and a piece of their carrot cake. Both were good and not overly sweet. The ambiance was quiet and yet inviting. Once we finished our meal and were about to leave we were approached by Julie who stated her son was the chef and asked how our experience was. We told her we had a good time and enjoyed the food. Which then turned into an impromptu tour of the different areas of the restaurant close to closing time. So I took a few pictures. She was friendly, informative and took pride in the restaurant. It was a great interaction with her. Through that I learned that not only the Women's restroom but the men's restroom also had changing tables for the babies. On the plus side for moms and dads they provide extra supplies in case you forget some. Appears they are family/kid friendly. Definitely check them out and support your local businesses.

    I recently tried the arancini and the house-made rigatoni with chicken cutlet at La Piazza, and…read moreboth dishes were phenomenal. The arancini were perfectly crispy on the outside with a warm, creamy center. They were topped generously with fresh parmesan and paired with a rich pink sauce that really elevated the flavor--definitely a standout appetizer. The rigatoni with chicken cutlet was just as impressive. The pasta tasted fresh and perfectly cooked, and the chicken cutlet was tender, crispy, and full of flavor. The pink sauce (labeled as spicy vodka) was absolutely delicious--more savory and creamy than spicy, which made it super enjoyable and well-balanced. Overall, everything was cooked beautifully and full of flavor. I would absolutely come back and highly recommend trying both dishes.

    I wish I had read El J.'s note before coming here on Mother's Day. La Piazza added a 20% surcharge…read moreto the bill, which felt like a blatant cash grab rather than a reasonable holiday policy. If a restaurant is going to add that kind of charge, it should be clearly disclosed upfront before customers order or make reservations. Unfortunately, the experience did not come close to justifying the extra cost. The steaks were badly overcooked, the food was mediocre at best, and there were large flies throughout the restaurant, which made the meal even more unpleasant. I understand that Mother's Day is a busy day for restaurants, but being busy does not give a business a free pass to surprise customers with excessive charges or deliver poor food and service. The 20% surcharge felt unfair and left a very bad impression. I willnot return, and I would strongly recommend that customers check their bill carefully before paying. SHAME ON YOU FOR SCAMMING CUSTOMERS

    For the last year or so, my buddy and I get together every Friday night for dinner/drinks. We used…read moreto go different places each week, but after a couple of months, we'd decided this is our spot. Why? The food is always good, the service is always great, wait times are minimal, prices are very reasonable, and the atmosphere is much better than anywhere else we'd gone. In the dozens of times we've been here, we had a minor issue one time with the way something was prepared. Our server was apologetic and eager to make it right. The manager came out, apologized, discounted the meal and offered us complimentary dessert. They went above and beyond in this case, and it was a minor issue. We have gotten to know our servers in this time. They always address us by name and offer to get our usual drinks started as soon as we are seated. To be honest, I was shocked to see the amount of negative reviews on here. Our experiences here have always been great - far better than elsewhere in Visalia. We will continue to be regulars here and highly recommend Tahoe Joe's to friends, family, and strangers here on Yelp.

    I'm not understating why there's Low Ratings for this spot!?…read more Tahoe Joe's has been great Every time we went?? FOOD: --We got the 2/$78 special they have going on! Appetizers, 2 Meal/ A side & Soup or salad, &Dessert! --Bread rolls at seating...

The chowder could have been heated a little more.. I like Mine like it just came out the pot , so preference. Husband got, Joes Steak with Mountain Mashers (potatoes ) + Green Beans + side Cesar salad.. All so good together. BOTH STEAKS WERE SO FLAVORFUL! Dessert (Get the Lemon Supreme) yummm And my husband also got a Free cheesecake for his BIRTHDAY.. that also came with a candle & an amazing quote from a Great Server! We got the cheesecake 2GO, but it didn't make it in our 2GO bag. yummm All was great for us folks! We had no complaints about the food. **if I had any complaint at all.. it would be that it was a little chilly I forgot a jacket, so *Ladies.. Bring a light sweater /jacket!** -- & If you don't like something folks, SPEAK UP.. it's a Steak House.. you're paying $$ for a good meal.. most places will be happy to fix it if they can!-- Big Thank You to our sweet waitress (Ashley G) for another great experience at Tahoe Joes! Can't wait to come back!
