I was lucky enough to be offered a buy one get one free entree. I wanted to take someone but ended up going alone. The restaurant is so cute inside and rid well maintained and cleaned. The service was amazing while I was here and the chef (Mona I think she said) even came out and talked with me. I got the Alfredo which was so thick and cheesy And I got the stuffed chicken with mashed potatoes and asparagus. The only thing is I would have loved a gravy with this but everything was so flavorful and yummy. I will for sure come back especially since they said the patio is dog friendly. read more

There are reasons that this restaurant is empty. Easy parking, & no wait EVER because of low quality, high prices and poor concept. "Dosan" is Punjabi for "disappointment." And you will be disappointed if you ever foolishly decide to eat there. It's in the name. read more

This place is excellent. It used to be buffet style but Manny was telling us they recently switched to menus. I had the pan fried cod & charred vegetables. I've been eating cod since the 70s & who knew cod could be so good. It was a quality piece of fish & had a slight sear on the bottom but it was the chamoy sauce that brought it home. When combined, the cod, grape tomatoes, & basmati rice were incredibly flavorful & fresh. They have a full bar at one end & a patio at the other. It is deceptively large on the inside. Low back chairs & lacquered wooden tables subvert your expectations. This place has the best City Punch ( read, water) this side of Tampa. Smooth Sade-inspired music also helps to get you in the mood for good company & even better food. Our waiter, Manny, was great is his suggestions & in telling us how this family business was doing. This place has been open about 18 months & is a secret gem. 5-stars read more

Dosan A Social Eatery - Pan Seared Cod with basmati rice & charred vegetables - New American Near Me - Clovis, California

I recently had the chance to visit Dosan, and I really enjoyed my experience! I actually hadn't heard of this place until recently, so it was interesting learning that it originally opened as more of a buffet-style restaurant before transitioning to its current concept. I personally think the change really fits the space and the aesthetic. It feels a little more elevated while still being approachable for a casual lunch, dinner, date night, or group gathering. I ordered the Tropical Ceviche, the Strawberry Blush cocktail, and the Cinnamon Apple Bliss dessert. The ceviche was a little different from what I'm personally used to--it had a lighter, more refreshing flavor profile instead of the bolder citrus flavors I typically gravitate toward. If that's your style of ceviche, I think you'll really enjoy it. The Strawberry Blush was my favorite drink of the night. It was refreshing, lightly sweet, and not overly strong, which is exactly how I like my cocktails. The Cinnamon Apple Bliss dessert was another favorite. It reminded me of a lighter, flakier apple pie that wasn't overly sweet, and I would absolutely order it again. What stood out most to me was the hospitality. The owner, Junior, and his son were incredibly friendly and made a point to check in throughout the evening. I appreciated that they genuinely wanted feedback and were asking guests what they liked and what they could continue improving. You can tell they're passionate about creating a great experience. The restaurant has plenty of parking since it's in a large shopping center, it's easy to find, and it had a nice relaxed atmosphere when we visited during the afternoon. They also have a private event space, and I think this would be a great place for company events, birthdays, celebrations, or larger gatherings. I could definitely see myself coming back with a bigger group, especially if they continue hosting fun community events. Overall, I had a really enjoyable experience. The food was fresh, the prices felt very reasonable, and the welcoming hospitality made the visit even better. I'm looking forward to coming back for dinner next time! read more

They had a buffet here which was really good. Last time I had their tri tip sandwich with french fries, and ketchup. I thought it was really good. Their design of the restaurant is nice. It is cozy, full of light. It is easy to chill and relax in here. The meat tastes nice and cheesy. Bread is soft. I wish they'd bring the buffet back, though. Maybe one day. read more

I came here for the first time during lunch and was sad to hear they recently got rid of their salad bar. I mourn Sweet Tomatoes regularly because where can you find a good salad bar these days? We were told they discontinued the buffet because they weren't getting enough business to sustain it and had to throw away a lot of food. The inside is beautifully decorated, but it was empty when we arrived at 1pm on a Saturday so it felt a little weird. A few more groups did come in after us though so we weren't completely alone. One party left upon hearing there was no salad bar. There was only one worker acting as host, waiter and busser, which I assume is due to lack of business. It took us an hour to get our entrees due to the added wait time of only one worker taking orders. His handheld machine used to taking orders also stopped working halfway through and he had to write done the rest of the orders. Then he came back and found out none of the digital orders went through and had to retake half of our orders. He told us they hired a new chef from out of town and are putting the finishing touches on a new menu with a grand opening soon. This building has been home to several different restaurants over the years and despite what I think is a good location, I fear it could be cursed. The food was good and I enjoyed my meal. I hope their future plans work out and they are able to stay open. read more

Giving Dosan a 3-stars because the space itself is honestly beautiful. The outside is what first caught our attention, and the inside is just as nice--very clean, stylish, and it definitely looks like it should be a popular spot. But every time we drive by, there's barely anyone there, and after visiting, I understand why. They really need better marketing and more of a clear identity. We didn't even know what kind of food they served until we walked in. It feels like they're trying to be high-end, but the restaurant has a bit of an identity crisis. We later found out it used to be a buffet, and now it seems like they're trying to rebrand without really creating enough buzz around it. They need promotions, events, maybe even live music--something to bring people in. The menu is extremely limited, and there's no kids' menu at all, which was frustrating for a family dinner. They ended up handing us the lunch menu just to compensate. My daughter ordered the Alfredo pasta, and it honestly didn't taste like Alfredo--it mostly tasted like oil. Adding Parmesan helped a little, but it was still disappointing. The bread was decent enough. I ordered the cod with rice and asparagus, and it was okay--probably the best part of the meal--but nothing that made me feel like I'd come back for it. The waiter was kind and doing their best to answer questions, so no complaints there. Overall, it just felt like a restaurant with potential but no real direction. Nice atmosphere, decent service, but the food and overall experience didn't match the high-end vibe they seem to be aiming for. Unfortunately, I wouldn't return. read more

***Warning***I really wanted to support a local business. They had sent out free entrees when you signed up thru their social media page. We even called to verify if this free entree was real and if there was stipulations. They said none, "come on in". We got there and to our shock, it's buy one get one free entrees. So we're forced to make a purchase! Fine. They were out of a lot of things. So when they first opened they had this immaculate salad bar, that's gone. We got a mediocre burger and a pastrami sandwich which was supposed to be on focaccia bread. We were told they were out of it. So they served the pastrami on a hoagie roll and it made the amount of pastrami microscopic. This experience right out of the gate made me believe they are struggling and will not last long. I don't want any business to end but this practice showed me that they don't even care. Good luck to them. You've been warned. I'll be reporting this to the Better Business Bureau. read more

Came during my hour lunch because I wanted something healthy and found reviews online about their salad bar. Took some time to be greeted but once I paid $15 for the salad and soup bar things went quick! They have lots of options for salads, a wide variety and lots of dressings as well. They had 2 soups at the time and I went with the pozole they had! It was pretty good for a place in clovis like this. The waitress came back and told me all about the happy hour and other things they offer since I didn't have time for the full experience! I'd love to try to meat station and other side they have. I'll definitely be coming back here when I have more time to sit and eat! (Nice vibe inside and a good replacement for sweet Tomatoes) read more

First off I want to express that this was my first time here at Dosan. Apparently I missed it but they had a different menu just a month ago before I came. They had pizza and all you can eat salad bar, sort of like a buffet setting. Today they had a high end restaurant menu. NO MORE BUFFET. I had the salmon and pesto pasta and it was literally the best salmon I've ever had!! Cooked perfectly, juicy and not dry at all. The pesto sauce had put the Italian into Italian! This chef was born and made for this!! That pasta sauce was not missing a single thing!! I rate that 10 stars! My husband had the ribeye and that was cooked to perfection. Nicely grilled on the outside with the perfect crisp and moist and tender on the inside, seasoning was on point, however the ribeye was very thin and a bit small in size but still was very good. ! Appetizer spicy shrimp was the best thing ever. Flavors were spicy, powerful, very distinct... I'll never forget those flavors... never had it anywhere before, Must Have! The bread stuffed with cream cheese was so addicting, you gotta try that, although it could have used more filling!! Overall this restaurant did a 180 degree turn around on the whole Menu, the vibes, the ambience, and the service. Definitely better than Colton social house who offers similar diverse food in their menu... Dosan just has better flavors and menu. I'm definitely going back. ***Honest Review** read more

I would give Dosan FIVE STARS for ambience! The open dining area has comfortable booths surrounding the periphery of the room. The ONLY place in FRESNO/CLOVIS area, that plays low volume, instrumental jazz in the background. It's a pleasant and peaceful environment. Truly a unique and peaceful atmosphere. They also have a patio, that could be enjoyable in the evenings. We were here two days after the opening, so one must give them time to get up and running. They had various pickled items on the salad bar (yellow cauliflower, cucumbers, and large radish slices) and a good variety of greens. The potato salad was delicious! The pasta items and wedge potatoes were VERY tasty, however, they were not 'hot' . . . They will have to experiment on tweaking their heating elements, as those items were just lukewarm, as well as my carved turkey. At the carving station, you can ask them to 'assemble' a sandwich for you! My husband came back with a pastrami sandwich that he enjoyed. Dessert consisted of a variety of; cookies, brownies, muffins, and rice crispy bars. It was $25 each for all you can eat, and drinks are separate. Service is friendly. read more

Went on opening day expecting first day hiccups. $25 for the all you can eat buffet and another $9 for one trip to the carving station. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was nice. The gentleman at the carving station was very polite and agreeable. Everything at the salad bar was fresh and delicious. Dressings were good. Besides the salad bar, the best items were the house made pickles, mustard, pepperoni pizza, and Italian wedding soup. There were many things that could be improved. Overall, almost everything needed more seasoning, including salt. The meats were a disappointment. The pastrami was juicy and tender, but barely had a hint of pastrami spice. The turkey and beef were dry and mealy. The au jus had a layer of oil on the top. The sauerkraut and grilled onions were kind of flavorless too. The mac and cheese looked amazing, but tasted like nothing. Corn bread was dry and crumbly and biscuits were rock hard. The red sauce for the pasta tasted like tomato paste. The desserts were just ok, nothing special. All in all, $9 for the carving station option would be a great deal if the meats were better, and $25 for just the salad bar is not a great value. We may go back again, but not for at least a few months. read more

Unfortunately dinner at Dosan was the Worst restaurant experience I have ever had. Food was expensive and completely sub par. There is a reason this place reinvents itself often. read more

I'm not sure if it's because this beautiful establishment has changed hands four times since I've been in Fresno. I don't know why people can't get their traction here. I'm thinking it's because of the lack of restaurant experience because it's a large space and I have tried each establishment. Out of all the experiences that I paid in this establishment, this was the weakest demonstration of food experience. They could put more into learning the local preferences, and quality for a beautiful place like this. I feel if they put it together, they could get out of the red lines and be successful. read more

The restaurant itself is nice, comfortable, nice atmosphere. Staff extremely attentive! The food is ok. Not bad, but not great. I won't go there again due to the cost. $24.99 for the buffet and $4.00 for a soda. If it was $20 including a drink, yes, I'd say it's worth it.... Maybe. read more

This place was very clean, open and airy. The service was excellent. You can see in my photos what we had - of course, we had to trade small slices with each other of our food: it was all very good, especially the chicken panini. They also have a soup and salad bar. They had a special going on for $5 margaritas. I plan on going back. read more

Came here for the first time tonight and dinner was great! I had the Garlic Herb stuffed chicken and it was something that I instantly said I would come back for! Wife had ribeye and MIL had the cod. Every plate was worth having again...Service was very attentive, we will be back!!! read more

Came back for a 2nd time and brought the husband for Father's Day. He loved the food! The restaurant is large and clean. We sat in the lounge/bar area. The seats are comfy. Everything we ate was delicious. It's different from typical restaurants and the service was great. We were seated right away. We ordered the stuffed bread for the appetizer and they baked it on the spot. The beet salad was so fresh and yummy! It came out warm and so flavorful. The only downside is that the machine to pay and checkout was glitchy and I couldn't tip on it so I had to use cash, which I rarely carry. read more

The service was amazing, food was delicious & the ambiance of the restaurant is so relaxing and lively all in one. Will definitely return!

I tried this place a few days before thanksgiving, they have a small carving station with small selection of meats, the beef was super dry and stringy, the turkey was delicious, they also had some German sausage that was tasty, the soups were not good IMO, tasted like canned goods, they also have a small salad station, I really liked it and wished they provided an option of salad only because sometimes you don't feel like eating meats, but I guess Fresno has better places for just salads. They also have a pasta and pizza section, all very basic and not appetizing at all. Brought my BF to try it with me for the first time and he agreed that this was a one time thing. read more

We came here for the first time over the weekend on Saturday and enjoyed the service/atmosphere. The ribeye was extremely fatty and half of it was inedible. The fish and drinks were good. With that being said, we returned on Sunday to enjoy drinks and food again. Our server, Mark told us that it was happy our throughout the week due to it being a new establishment. We ordered accordingly and even asked for "one more drink before happy hour ends" and the server brought us our drink. Our check at the end of dinner did not reflect happy hour. Happy hour states $4 for well drinks. We asked for an extra well vodka shot in our signature drinks which costs us $8, the bartender stated that "even during happy hour the extra shots are $8 because of the drinks they are going into so order it on the side and add it in yourself." As a bartender myself, this logic does not make sense. We very much enjoyed the restaurant and spent around $400 this weekend alone but did not appreciate the misinformation and poor explanation on the staffs end. read more

Nice American style buffet! Amazing price at $25!I appreciated the carving station but the prime rib had too much of a fat cap. The meat was tender though! I wish the food was hotter temperature wise, but overall an okay selection of food. Definitely doesn't have as large of a selection as a typical Chinese buffet but I had a good experience. It was clean and the service was very attentive. read more

I have to say, I am disappointed in the consistency of this place. We tried it the day after Thanksgiving and it was pretty good! Good enough to go again. It wasn't amazing, however it was still good. I took my husband and the carving stating meats were so dry. The brownies were hard. Cake was dry. A few things were good and other stations were dried up and scary. My son went with his girlfriend on his birthday and was let down. They said nothing was fresh, the cake was dry and found paper in the pudding cup. There were no other diners and the service was lacking. I'm disappointed as I recommended it. So without consistency, I won't be spending $25 plus per person to hope the food is fresh. read more

Great experience on a Saturday: food and staff. My favorites: veggies, salad bar, bread, corn bread, chicken, soups, pasta, cheese potatoes. Just like we loved it at Sweet Tomatoes! If you want some healthy dinner options, this is the place to go. $25 per person Great for a date: modern decor & lighting They even have a party room Carving station would be extra. Trip tips, roast and sandwiches We will be back! read more

I have missed Sweet Tomatoes since Covid killed it. Dosan is the closet thing to Sweet Tomatoes I have found. It's only been open 3 weeks and undoubtedly they will have growing pains but my husband and I and another couple really enjoyed our meal. My salad was delicious and exactly what I was looking for. The carving station was tasty as well and the server was accommodating. Overall the staff was very friendly and attentive and open to suggestions and the meal was as good as Sweet Tomatoes (which I loved). I do recommend giving Dosan a try and a chance. I really hope they stick around. We need healthy restaurant choices!! Oh, and did I mention that they have a full bar! Oh yeah!! That's a Sweet Tomatoes upgrade!! Give Dosan a try!! read more

Although our server was quite new on the job, she stayed on top of assuring we were given the appropriate attention and it was refreshing to see someone not attempting to "wing it" and if she didn't know, she immediately returned with the answer. It was our first time here so we weren't sure what to expect nor in any hurry. I had previously read that the rib-eye french dip sandwich was very good so that's what I ordered and my guest ordered the pastrami. Both sandwiches were delicious and well prepared accompanied with a refreshing spring salad with dressing of our choice! A classic Margarita that was just perfect was our choice of cocktail. Overall, this place is a repeater in my book! I'm very picky so I'm not exaggerating that I was impressed with the food, presentation, low-key ambience and friendliness of staff. I only wish I had taken a picture to share but next time! Since this place is a re-invention of a prior business, I suggest to try it now before it gets too popular; because if they stay on target with what I enjoyed, they will take off in a great way! read more

Lazette was an amazing waitress! Very kind and friendly and did everything possible to make sure we were taken care of.

This place just opened and I was very curious about it. They describe it as Sweet Tomatoes meets Silver Dollar Hofbrau. I think it has inspiration from those places but I want to see it have its own identity. There is a salad bar. It was very good. Would like to see a bit more topping options and maybe some more pre-made salad options for those who like them already made. They had corn bread and rolls. They had a hot food section with roasted vegetables, pastas, potatoes, enchiladas, pizza and bread sticks. They also have a meat carving station where you can get different types of meat and pilaf and mashed potatoes. The price is $24.99 per person. Drinks are not included. A little pricey. I think the drink should be included with that price. But I'll go again. They were very attentive. Even though it's buffet style, they were always checking in to make sure we were doing well, clearing plates and offering refills on our drinks. Also, whenever they brought out a fresh pizza, they walked it around to the tables in the room and served you table-side before putting it back at the buffet. I'm very happy to have a restaurant like this in Clovis again. The only other salad bar is at Sizzler's and that is across town. read more
