I'm not too sure where to start with this one. Let's start from the beginning, the hostess's were very nice and friendly. We had about a 20 minute wait to be seated and they gave my daughter a menu and crayons to color on while we waited. Upon being seated our waitress walked by saying she would right with us. This happened several times before we finally placed drink orders. Then it got to the point I thought we were forgotten before drinks came. As soon as she came with drinks she was off to tend to a 9 person party she was also serving. I don't need to be tended too every 5 minutes but I hate feeling ignored or not a priority because we are a party of 3. I heard a table next to us that had something comped from a long wait but not sure one the whole story there just that they had the same server. We never were offered drink refills, it's a big drink but still. When I got the check I was ready with my card as I wasn't interested in waiting for our server to decide to come back to us after 10 minutes again. As she set it down and said to pay when ready I was in the middle of say "here you go I have my card ready" she was already turning around to walk away. I could go on but the point is that this server was interested in where she thought the big tip was coming from. The food was alright. The rolls and beans were fantastic and the soup and salad were good as well. I had the cool hand combo with steak and ribs with garlic red mashers. Not bad just ok, the steak was a little under the medium rare I ordered so it was chewy, ribs were tender but mushy and the potatoes were cool and crusty, obviously sitting on the hot plate a bit too long. My wife's tri-tip was very tender. Her shrimp was blah, that's hard to do with shrimp, just tiny and bland. I'm not one to take menu pics when they are already on Yelp but the prices on those pictures are not current prices. Prices are higher by $8-11 and their website conveniently doesn't have prices listed. That was a fun surprise seeing the menu! All in all I may return during some of their cheaper dinner promo times but that's about it. read more

I hate giving you guys a two star because the food is good, it's your service that deserves a one... but I didn't want to be horrible. Who ever is answering phones need to be trained on at least what's going on and what's on the menu. It started with being put on hold (5 min) and no one returning until I called back. I thought okay they're busy. Call back... It's Sunday... prime rib special... the girl answers sounds annoyed I'm putting in a pick up order. Put on hold for a sec and then returned. I order the special... put me on hold to ask if there was a special... came back... placed the order ready in 20 min. Okay. Cool I get there... 30 min later, food not ready. Not busy at all. You have 3 girl employee standing around complaining they wish they were home. Had to ask them to check on my order. When they came back they said they were waiting on the bread. So you guys bake it fresh? Waited an additional 10 min for my bread. Prime rib just sitting. No other orders coming out, so they weren't busy. A couple even came in and the girl was like...we close at nine but I guess you sit at the bar. Annoyed. Get my food... No napkins or No fork, spoon or knife. I ordered a prime rib... I kind of need those things to enjoy my food. What if I was on my work lunch? My food was good... I did however get a wrong item but it was still good. Anyways your service is lacking. Sloths would have been faster... and I'm not even trying to be funny. I've had good experiences here... so get better people who care at least a little bit. Enough to make you want to come back. Bad service and no leadership really matter. read more

Food is normally decent with great service. But the air isn't working properly and hasn't been for some time. Hot as heck, I don't want to sit there eating with sweat rolling. Can't imagine it as an employee. Ridiculously hot. read more

Waited 30 minutes and was still not seated. There were also about three other parties of two before me and left. After waiting 30 minutes I realized I wasn't going to be seated anytime sooner and left. read more

First time coming here was honestly pretty excited, but as soon as I got the calamari and saw that it looked like a big ass fish stick I knew I fucked up. Filet mignon steak had zero flavor, rib eye looked like a steak they would serve in a Russian prison. WAYYYY to over priced. Mojito was straight up syrup and and had no no limes!! Also who the fuck serves calamari with ketchup??? read more

I was searching for a new steakhouse that had good food and appetizers but for some reason Fresno/Clovis they all seemed to miss the marked. I had the following for Tuesday night mediocre dinner. Steak Fries 3/5 tasted ok nothing special Buffalo Wings 2/5 tasted horrible because you can tell it wasn't homemade it was probably from a frozen batch Potatoes Skin 1/5 so horrible took one bite and that's it 2 Chicken Street Tacos 2/5 the chicken was hard and the rest was dry Luke's Western Ribeye 3/5 looks good but it was kinda chewy Bone in Ribeye 2/5 it look no where like the picture it was a low quality bone in ribeye Arnold Palmer 2/5 watered down drink Service 3/5 service was ok nothing special I was craving steak and a couple of things too so I decided to give Cool Hand Luke Clovis a try. It was a big let down to let you guys know most of their food was below subpar and low quality. The only thing that stood out was their salad croutons which i enjoyed very much. Now for steak and other food i now know where not to go. read more

Cool Hand Luke's knows how to serve it up! My husband and I ordered the "Stage Coach Combo". The filet mignon was cooked to perfection, the baked potato was filled to the brim with sour cream, cheese, chive, and bacon bits, and the shrimp was fresh and crunchy! It was so good I almost ate the entire plate! I paired it with the Joseph Carr, Napa Valley Merlot. This Merlot became more complex with each sip. It has a smooth finish with a bold body. read more

This is not an $18 salad. It was supposed to be a chopped chicken salad with strawberries. It is not chopped obviously. The staff was in a very hurry. I did not arrive at closing time. Sorely disappointed I do not recommend that you order anything to go from there. read more

Cool Hand Luke's - Hello, I ordered a chop chicken salad to go. This is what I got. This is an $18 salad. I think not. - Steakhouses Near Me - Clovis, California

We love the steak but the real reason we keep coming back is because of Stu and Mary Kay. We come to the Clovis restaurant with some frequency; Stu and Mary Kay remember us and treat us like neighbors while still providing excellent service. We love our Clovis community. read more

Just OK...Fairly limited beer selection for craft brews. Ordered appetizers and they were disappointing. After we got a replacement order, the apps were better. But, on the bright side, the patio was open and several indoor bar seats were open too. With the limited choices now days, I would dine here again. read more

The service was pretty good (nice staff, fairly quick, responsive) and the food was good. Lots of food, generally, but was expecting the rib portion to be a little bigger. read more

The food is good. They have early dinner specials before 6pm. Service is excellent. Nice comfortable seating.

I've been here before. So today was definitely a surprise. Not very busy for a Monday but the wait for food was ridiculous. But we patiently waited. The food was horrible. Ribs were hard . Way over cooked as well as the chicken. The pilaf had zero flavor . The only thing they made right were the fries. I wouldn't recommend this place to a starving person. The restaurant was also very messy . read more

Horrible service! Orders mixed up, sides on wrong plates or wrong dishes given. Waitress suggested we just all swap plates which people began eating on but our party couldn't all sit together do to Covid. Food wasn't very good, especially for the price!!! 500 Club has far better food and better service for a lower price. Since the new owners took over nothing has been the same. Could have gotten better food and service at Denny's!!!! read more

My husband & I ordered rib eye steaks. They served prime rib & it wasn't even hot. As we were leaving, the people next to us were also leaving & they didn't eat their food, very disappointing. Won't be going back there, ever. read more

Came to dinner here for my wife's birthday. The waitress was very nice and the drink glasses were large which was a nice touch. Then it all went down hill. The prices for steak or fish are very high so I figured it would be a very good Ribeye so I went with the 14oz for $38 thinking it's gotta be good. I ordered it medium rare and then it came out looking like it was cooked over an open flame for 2 hours and probably weighed 4 ounces. I told the very nice waitress that I don't normally complain but for that price I had to bring up how over cooked my medium rare stake was. She was very apologetic and had another one made for me. It came out a proper size and I was excited to cut into it but then found it so raw that the cook might as well had walked and spit in my face and said this is what you get for complaining. You will get a way better steak for way cheaper at Applebees which is tough for me to say. Do yourself a favor and never go to Luke's. read more

Used to be my favorite steakhouse. 3 times ordering takeout. 3 times missing items. From missing desert, to no salads, to missing an entire dish for one of my kids. Gotta say this place has major gone down the tubes. I'm done with Cool hand lukes. This is ridiculous! Like I'm going to drive 15 minutes back to get my replacement missing item/s with a flippin coupon for a deep fried onion. Please! Gtfo! Horrible customer service. Worthless effort to make things right. 3 times the charm. You guys had to work at it to piss me off. We won't be wasting our time or money again. Just speechless and the lack of effort and care for our food. You're not exactly a cheap dinner either. So do the math now a family of 4 out there spending someplace else and sharing their miserable experience with their friends and family. We get the hint. Don't come back. read more

Waiting here at the bar for 20 minutes bartenders to busy talking to each other to take my order

we've been regulars for years , our normal go to place when we go out. The last several months the Ribeye steaks have been so tough we couldn't eat them, the waitress said they've been getting their meat somewhere different, obvious cheaper, we decided to give them another chance tonight, ordered the 18oz outlaw Ribeye, it was so tough and so much gristle we couldn't get a knife through it, the price went up to $42. So disappointed. The service was great as usual. I will probably go back but won't order a steak, We'll go to Texas Roadhouse for that. Sorry read more

Been here twice now and I'm going to agree with most people here and say the food is inconsistent. On my first visit, my steak was cooked to perfection. I like it well-done, but NOT DRY. Somehow I think when the cook hears that, they automatically think this is an opportunity to take their 15 min break after dropping the steak on the grill. Well, the first time my rib eye was cooked to perfection.: no blood, but juicy. This time, my steak is a different story. The standard issue "Luke's Western Rib Eye" is smothered with mushrooms but I dont dig fungus. I just asked them to cook it medium-well and make it like the "Whiskey Peppercorn Sirloin" style. It came out kinda charred and not an ounce of moisture. When you bite into it, it was like dessicant--immediately wicks any moisture out of your mouth. Thank God their beverages are served in a big Ball jar. Still, I had to ask for refills since it immediately robbed my body of all digestive juices. For my selection of side, I chose "Fancy Greenbean". Not sure what was fancy about it though. It wasn't spectacular. Service was very good. We asked for a booth and they were able to accomodate us after a small wait. I couldn't help but notice that we were the only non-caucasian species in here. The western decor made me feel like I was playing Jackie Chan in Shanghai Noon and everyone was Owen Wilson. If you order your steak medium-well, you'll be saying more "wataaaaaaaaaaah" like me! First visit: 5 stars Second visit: 3 stars Final rating: 4 stars. read more

The last 2 times I ordered my steak was cooked wrong. And the quality is so bad, it's tough and chewy. Also they were supposed to come with rolls but failed to mention they were out when I placed my order. Overall bad experience if you're ordering to go read more

The food is great, especially the Jim Bean Bourbon Salmon! Service is wonderful. It doesn't get any better then this!!!

My husband and I went to eat here for the first time last night and we had an excellent experience. Rick was our server and he recommended we try their new appetizer, the Sundance shrimp and I must say it was absolutely delicious. It was an excellent way to begin our meal. We each order steaks, which were also good but I must say the Sundance Shrimp was the the highlight of our meal. A must try if you go in! Overall, it was a great experience all the food was good, the service was great, we will definitely be back! read more

My steak was tough! Overall though I've had good experiences there with the food! Steak was just not up to par this last time!

Went here twice during my week work trip. I enjoyed both times. Food was good, drinks were great, service on point. We had a Moscow mule, some blue drink, the ahi appetizer, bacon wrapped jalapeños, and the prime rib dip. Loooooooves the dip . I enjoyed the jalapeños but husband thought they needed more flavor. We came post covid opening. All the staff was wearing some sort of face covering and it looks like the removed some bar tables and no one sitting at the bar. We sat in the bar area both times. I'll be back for work in a couple weeks and will likes frequent here for my 5 week stay. Just down the street from my hotel with plenty of menu and drink options. read more

Food was amazing Restaurant was very dirty Nice to join bar Side Great for family gatherings Service are ok Prices are ok Great hours of operation read more

Some of the food was ok but some was terrible. I was excited to eat here but it was like so many restaurants that I've eaten at post Covid.

Disclaimer: I am young and have lived in La, SF, and SD, so I am quite a food snob and have very particular taste. My fiance's grandfather loves this place and the portions are huge, but I am not a fan. It's typical diner type food with very little taste. My fiance loves the baked beans with tri tip, which are good, but not go-out-of-your-way to come here and eat them. Last time I came here I got the shrimp platter which was okay but again, not super flavorful or special. The previous time I think I got a cut of meat which I did not enjoy that much. If you eat to live (not live to eat like I do), then sure, come here. If you have any sort of high end palette, then do not. read more

I think they are taking advantage of the poor consumer during this crisis. They advertised a rack of ribs with beans for $14.99. Then I could only find a full rack of ribs, with a $6 surcharge. The ribs were just ok, compared to most bbq rib places. To top it off, the portion of beans was so small, and even smaller was the rice pilaf. So, I paid $30 for a rack of mediocre ribs, and sides too small for two people!!! And I made the mistake of tipping them $5!!!! Some extra bbq sauce would also have been nice! read more

While in town for work, this place was recommended to me by my hotel. The beans are amazing, the rolls were great, and my steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare. And the icing on the cake was the wait staff; oylutstanding. If you're in the area and in the mood for a good steak, I highly recommend Cool Hand Luke's. read more

I was very happy with yesterday service at Cool Hand Lukes. Sunday is all day happy hour so we decided to sit in the bar area. Our server/bartender Brandee did an amazing job. I believe Lukes is has been under new management for a close to a year now so the menu has changed and some of the old drinks are not longer on the menu. But Brandee was able to recreate the drink I wanted. She was very sweet. We only did appitezers but they were delicious. The mushrooms are really good when they are hot, they get a little less amazing when they get cold only because they are deep-fried so the batter isn't as good cold. The street taco's for happy hour only come with 2 but dang whatever the sauce they put on it was great. We also did the wings (comes with 4) and the potato skins (also came with 4), plus the cowboy cookie. Can't complain! They have free wifi, you do have to provide your email but then you receive a free onion blossom if you print the coupon. read more

Madison, our server, made it a wonderful evening! Yes.. there were hiccups.. but she came with a smile and made everything fabulous! It was a nice relaxing night and she made it perfect! read more

The prime rib was a little on the cool to warm side, where the butter did not even melt when I rubbed it on. The meat did not taste fresh and as I cut it, it was shredded as if it's corn beef. This had to have been the worst prime rib I've ever had!!! read more

Upon entering the hostess suggested we seat ourselves in the bar area rather than taking her time to seat us. First off, I love the complimentary unlimited bread and beans, and that they can box up fresh bread and beans to go, at no cost! Yay! Food is always good and fresh but this place isn't really baby friendly. There was no ramp for strollers at the entry, and they never offered us a high chair so my son stayed in his stroller. The waitress was very nice but forgot our waters but kept asking us if we wanted more beer. She also forgot my boyfriends side of Mac and cheese but we were still charged for it on the bill. However, once I mentioned this to her she was nice and took it off. On a positive note, the restrooms are always clean, and they play the new hit country songs if you like country music. The service is a hit or miss, but the food is always a hit so I will continue to return. read more

Food was worse than Applebee's. I would have rather had a moon over my hammies. The service.....where do I start? Server had no knowledge of the menu and did know the difference between chicken fried steak and chicken. I ordered it and it was steak clearly frozen from Schwann's. I remember back in the day like 20 years ago they were hand battered. Now they are thin as paper and no flavor. The server was smart as a box of hair and very inattentive. She made sure to not clear the dirty dishes piling up and her team member gave me a dirty side look when we politely asked for him to please take the pile of dishes crowding our small table neither smiling or a word from him. We waited for extra place settings and had to share silverware and our fingers. The bartender was horrible and didn't know how to make a Tokyo tea and mostly kept his back to the customers. We would have received better service at Fresno County jail. And the food is probably better. Yes and the bread was nasty. Tasted like yesterday's bread reheated. Definitely not coming back here and recommend not wasting your money. read more

Really like the steak, chili beans, baked potato and dinner roll. The price is very reasonable. I usually order the takeout.

First time trying this place out tonight and the last... Wish I would have taken pics of our food buy I didn't. Anyhow, we started off with the bacon wrapped shrimp and the jalapeño popper. The bacon wrapped shrimp were about the only good thing we ate... the poppers were wrapped in super thin sliced bacon and were very sad looking I had a blue cheese salad and didn't finish it it was not very good at all... for my meal I ordered the steak nugget things and had a few bights and asked for my check... so basically everything I tried was junk. My wife ordered a drink and the waitress forgot about it lol but it wasn't a big deal because she took it off our check. If you want good bbq this isn't the place to go. read more

Food was dry and flavorless. They basically just smother everything in bbq sauce to add flavor. Not going back ever.

Less than stellar. Don't ask me how I want my steak cooked and then cook it the opposite. It was unedible. Didn't go out to eat to have to go home and cook myself dinner. read more

I've been to cool hand looks probably 5 or 6 times now. I've always had great service and great food each time I go. The price of the food is what you would expect to pay for at a steakhouse. I have to point out the biggest reason for 5 stars. The first time myself and husband and daughter went to eat there we had to check for food allergies because my daughter is allergic to peanuts and soy. I was blown away at the response we received. My daughter was able to eat everything on the menu except for the garlic butter that came with the bread. The entire menu! For anyone who is familiar with a soy allergy that's almost unheard of. It tells me that the quality of their food is top notch. Because soy is a filler and preservative. So I know I'm eating quality. But what I couldn't believe is what our waiter did next. After he verified that my daughter could eat there, he took our order and brought our drinks and left. Some time later he arrives at our table with a grocery bag that contained a stick of butter he bought for my daughter! So that she wouldn't feel left out. I was blown away. It was so thoughtful and maybe a little crazy. But he actually ran across the street and picked it up and came back. He got a generous tip. And for that reason, it will always be our go-to place with my daughter for special occasions. read more
