    Pot of beans and House Baked Rolls
    Mary F.

    We were seated right away. LED down a very dark hallway, into a very dark dining area, had to ask to sit where there was more light! Iced tea and coffee served up quickly. After some difficulty with menu we decided on the Tri tip sandwich with chicken pot pie soup and fries. I ordered the prime rib French dip also with chicken pot pie soup and fries. We also got a pot of delicious beans, and hot rolls with butter. Very good! Then our soup came within minutes, and our meal shortly after, seeming like we got it all together. Backing up, the soup was amazing, the spices perfect! It was steaming hot and very creamy, I would say it was the best I have had!. My sandwich looked beautiful, but I was already full. So I came home. I would love to go back and just have soup, rolls and beans! It would be perfect! MY sandwich is picture perfect so I am sure it will be good. We will have to go back, hoping for better service. We were never offered more drinks, we had to ask for take home containers 3 times, and we noticed the people next to us had asked for dressing and gravy on the side and they had to send three item back because they didn't do as asked. Their only job is to listen carefully and deliver meals as preferred. If not then service is not good, sadly.

    The manager

    The manager treated me horrible and was rude and very unprofessional. All because I wanted the blue cheese topper I ordered wasn't on my 40 something Dollar steak and I asked to get it melted on there. She said she would bring me some blue cheese, I said I'd like it to be melted on my steak. She told me she'd bring me some melted blue cheese in a plastic ramekin, I again said that I'd really like it to be melted on my steak the way I ordered it please. She reluctantly took my plate walked out of her way to the bar and told the bartender to charge me for a blue cheese topper. To which the bartender replied that she did when she put in the order. The manager didn't like that, she took my plate to the back smeared some blue cheese on my steak did not melt it and came right back and almost threw my plate down. It looked like shit and I said hay but was didn't stop on her way to the back. I called the bartender over and told her the the lady was extremely rude and I wasn't going to eat my steak she said she still had to charge me for my salad and tea. She also informed me that was her manager and her name was Cathy. I paid my tab and still tipped. I don't suggest this place to anyone.

    Pasta dish

    Food was good, not great. A little pricey for the amount you get. I hadn't been in years, but we were given a gift card at Christmas so thought we'd try it again. Our waiter was great! We were a party of 12, it was a Saturday night so it was busy. Our waiter hustled. Not sure if they were short on bartenders, but the drink service was bad! Took forever, even in the not crowded bar we visited after dinner for a night cap! I think I'd be willing to try it again. The side salad I got with my chicken sandwich was pretty basic. Literally chopped iceberg lettuce. Hubby said his steak and baked potato are better at home and half the price!

    The food has always been good. The service is a little hit or miss. We usually go in between lunch and dinner to miss the crowd. We do like to eat in the bar. The environment is low key and with the TVs, we can watch the different sports games that might be playing.

    Extremely underwhelming for $38.

    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.

Both Trevor (the sommelier) and Kelsey go out of their way to make you feel comfortable, and they happily explain all of the dishes you can't pronounce. Our celebratory birthday dinner last night was amazing, from the individual Enzo olive oil focaccia rounds to the spectacular pistachio Basque cheesecake with coconut pandam whipped cream There were many tastebud tickling and delectable combinations of spices and flavors, bursting through at different moments to brighten your culinary experience, and my first course selection of the watermelon, pickled beets, cucumber, goat cheese cream, pistachio dukkah, with cilantro lime vinaigrette was a perfect example of that. The trumpet shaped pasta (trombe) sweet corn, and Gouda was a surprisingly delightful sweet/spicy dish and the risotto of mung beans, kale, beech mushrooms, shrimp and exquisitely slender crisps of onion (the delicious is in the details!) dish was tantalizingly and especially memorable. There was so much attention paid to the little details that make meals exceptional. The palate cleansing watermelon sorbet surprise served in the middle of their prix fixe menu was perfect. Last night was one of the finest of the many times we've been there throughout the years. Trelio is for you if you enjoy amazingly delicious and creative dishes served with down to earth graciousness and elegance.

Anyways, with regards to the food, my partner and I got some spicy baked mussels to share, with a ribeye steak and lamb chops for entrees. The mussels were pretty underwhelming - I felt that it was just spicy for the sake of being spicy and didn't offer much in terms of flavor. With the entrees, we asked for the lamb chops to be cooked medium but they came rare, whereas the steak did come in medium rare as ordered. The lamb chops were okay but the steak was extremely salty and a bit too charred; I had to wash down my bites with water. With both entrees we were given a choice of either rice pilaf or garlic baked potatoes. The rice pilaf legit tasted like elementary school lunch rice (the ones with the teriyaki meat patties if you recall the 2000s, iykyk). The potatoes were alright, not bad but not great. Also wanted to note that both dishes came with like 2-3 tiny cherry tomatoes which is barely anything and would last you at most a couple of bites. Last thing I wanted to note is pricing. The lamb chops were in the upper $30s and the steak was $59, which pretty overpriced imo for whay is presented. Of course, that's also on me for trying to go for a "16 oz" steak (which I kinda doubt it was) vs. their pastas or other popular dishes but I think it's worth pointing out. All in all, I really think you can get much better bang for your buck at other semi-fancy/fancy places such as LimeLite or Willow Osteria to name a couple of examples. I would give this a 1 but the service was admittedly quite solid. Sadly, I don't think we'll come back.
