This spot used to be Corby's, but in my opinion, it's a huge improvement. The food, service, and…read moreoverall experience were all outstanding. We stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and grabbed seats at the bar. Sam was our server and was fantastic, friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations were spot on. The food absolutely did not disappoint. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Taco Salad, and it was enormous! The tortilla shell was so crispy and well-made that it actually held up for leftovers the next day. The jalapeño ranch had the perfect amount of heat and flavor. We also tried the Drunken Chicken Sandwich. Sam recommended getting it breaded, and I'm glad we listened. The homemade breadcrumb coating was light, crispy, and flavorful without being overly thick or salty. For appetizers, we shared the Fried Pork Belly Bites, which were paired with a delicious coleslaw and a sweet Korean-style BBQ sauce, and the Deviled Eggs, which were AMAZING. They came prepared three different ways, making it fun to try each variation. Honestly, I couldn't pick a favorite. Their beer selection was impressive, and I was especially excited to find Crow & Wolf's Dark Wolf Seltzer on tap, one of my favorites and not something you see everywhere. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and had plenty of character. Even the ladies' restroom had quirky, fun artwork that added a unique touch to the atmosphere. The size and amount of tv's was impressive. If you're looking for a relaxed vibe, great drinks, exceptional service, and food that delivers, I highly recommend checking this place out. We'll definitely be back.

We each had a beer/seltzer on tap. To start, we shared the soft pretzel sticks appetizer. The pretzels were a bit overcooked but tasted good, and the cheese and mustard they came with were tasty. To eat I had the sweet and savory flatbread. This was a very unique flatbread, I have never seen pears on a flatbread before! It was very tasty. My husband had the hot honey flatbread and he enjoyed it a lot as well. Overall a decent but average meal.

The upstairs feels like a classic restaurant, while the downstairs has a cool speakeasy vibe that makes the experience even more unique. We ordered an appetizer, pizza, pasta, and the pistachio cake, and every single dish was outstanding. The pizza had the perfect amount of cheese for that satisfying cheese pull. The pasta wasn't just one-dimensional. Everything was perfectly seasoned, tasted fresh, and the quality really stood out. The pistachio cake was the perfect ending to the meal. It had just the right amount of sweetness, allowing the distinct pistachio flavor to shine through, complemented by a subtle hint of coconut that made it even more delicious. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcome throughout the meal. I'll definitely be coming back the next time I'm in town. Highly recommend!

Okay, look. First of all, they serve your soda in actual, full-sized mason jars. Which I am…read morepersonally obsessed with, because nothing gives me a baseline level of panic quite like having to make awkward eye contact with a server every four minutes just to beg for a refill. So having a massive jar of soda already right in front of me? Huge win. Now, moving on to the slightly traumatizing part: they did not bring out bread to the table. Excuse me? I'm sorry, but if I am sitting down for Italian, table bread is not an optional courtesy--it is a fundamental human right. And it became an even bigger issue when my fettuccine arrived, because the portion size was... let's just say aggressively small for a dinner entree. I was expecting a meal, not a decorative sample. However... it was infuriatingly good. They make their own pasta fresh in-house, and the texture was honestly undeniable. My husband ordered the Margherita pizza, and he literally declared--with complete, uncharacteristic enthusiasm--that it was hands-down the best Margherita pizza he has ever gotten. So, massive points there. What was not a massive point, however, was the subterranean seating situation. We were escorted downstairs into the basement, which was pitch black. But more importantly: the stairs are completely unlit. I'm sorry, but they are actively asking to get sued. It is a litigious nightmare waiting to happen. Someone is going to take one wrong step in the dark, tumble down that staircase, and own the entire restaurant by next Tuesday. They are practically begging for a lawsuit. That being said... despite the pitch-black staircase of death and the tragic lack of dinner rolls, overall? I really liked it. The food completely won me over, and I would definitely go back. I will just be bringing a flashlight and my own emergency focaccia next time.

You can see the chef prepare your food in the open kitchen. The food is vibrant, flavorful, and came out hot. The lamb is tender and didn't have a gamey taste. The chicken was citrusy and juicy. The beef kebab was cooked to perfection as well. The baklava was sweet, crisp, flaky and fresh. I'll try the gyro and falafel next time!

I didn't expect a Mediterranean fast-food restaurant to have such high-quality food, but this place…read morereally impressed me! I ordered the Beef Shawarma Lunch Plate, and I was immediately impressed by the presentation. Everything looked fresh, colorful, and appetizing. The beef was fresh, tender, and perfectly cooked, while the rice was soft and flavorful. The creamy sauce added another layer of flavor and complemented the beef beautifully. The fattoush salad was fresh, and its dressing tied the entire meal together nicely. Since it's a fast-food restaurant, you order at the counter, receive a receipt, and they bring the food to your table. The restaurant itself was spacious and clean, with plenty of parking outside. The staff was also friendly and helpful. Overall, this is a great spot for a quality Mediterranean lunch without the wait of a traditional sit-down restaurant. Definitely a place I'd come back to!

My husband and I wanted to try the upstairs dining area, The Hayloft, at Bravo Farms. We already…read moreknow Bravo Farms for its fresh food, so we were excited to experience the more elevated menu and enjoy drinks at the bar. The upstairs has an open seating concept, with only a few tables reserved ahead of time. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between upscale and casual, with low lighting, large comfortable chairs, and an intimate feel that's perfect for a date night or relaxed dinner. Keep in mind that the prices are higher than downstairs, but so is the menu. We started with a White Linen cocktail, which was incredibly refreshing on a hot summer afternoon and the perfect way to kick off our visit. We originally planned to order the Burrata Caprese with Fresh Basil, but they were sold out--which must mean it's a popular choice! Instead, we opted for the Maple Glazed Brussels Sprouts, and they were absolutely delicious. The dish featured thinly sliced Serrano chilis that added just the right amount of heat. The crunch from the walnuts paired perfectly with the feta cheese and balsamic reduction. Best of all, the Brussels sprouts were cooked perfectly--crispy and tender without being soggy in the slightest. We loved this unique take on Brussels sprouts and can't wait to return to try more of the menu. Mia was our server and was both friendly and helpful, making our experience even better.

I took some stars off due to poor service, this time around, food preparation and restaurant hours of operation. The restaurant closes promptly at 9:00 pm, so typical of Visalia dining. We got there at 8:00 pm and it took a good 15-20 mins for waitstaff to take our order. We ordered two appetizers and cocktails and the food came before our cocktails. So, unbeknownst to us, we literally had about 25-30 minutes to eat and drink...ridiculous and unacceptable to not be informed of our short dining time. The restaurant lights came on promptly at 9ish, pretty much informing dining customers that it was time to wrap it up. But prior to that, while still clearly eating and drinking, waitstaff kept coming by trying to pickup our appetizer plates (they still had plenty of food left & our drinks were still full)..like I said rushing us out. It was definitely a poor experience. The appetizer of fried calamari was a miss, not crispy and clumps of calamari stuck together. The sweet potato fries were limp and not hot. Our cocktails were delicious. I'm so disappointed that I had such a poor experience at the Hayloft.

The walls of the restaurant are decorated with all types of funny signs and retro pieces. I absolutely loved it. This is the perfect casual lunch or dinner. The fact that these burgers are so affordable is just the cherry on top. Food consensus: The Smashburgers were amazing, everyone in my group loved them. I went with the Mushroom Smashburger and it had all the elements of a perfect burger. It had plenty of mushrooms and I added raw and grilled jalopenos. It was delicious. Juicy, flavorful, and filling. The fries were the perfect texture, they had a great bite to them. I was given their aioli, house sauce, and ranch and I was in heaven trying all the different combinations. I think this is the best smash burger I've had so far. I ordered a biscoff shake and it was also good. They even top the shake with a generous amount of crushed biscoff. I highly highly highly recommend trying Zee's Smash. You won't regret it.

I ordered the…read moresliders, which let you pick three of their signature burgers in smaller portions--such a great way to sample a few options. I went with the Juju Bleu, Calamity Jane, and Betsy Ross. I'll admit, I'm usually not a fan of bleu cheese, so I'm not sure why I picked the Juju Bleu--but I'm glad I did. It was surprisingly delicious. The Betsy Ross was solid and classic, with Thousand Island sauce--tasty, though nothing particularly standout. The Calamity Jane was the clear winner for me; the combination of sautéed onions, barbecue sauce, and mushrooms was absolutely spot-on. We also upgraded our side to clam chowder. It had great flavor, though it was a bit thicker than I prefer--not a dealbreaker by any means. Service really made the experience shine. Paula was phenomenal--attentive, friendly, and quick to check in on us and keep everything running smoothly. Overall, this is a great spot for lunch with friends or coworkers. Since it's right on Main Street, parking can be a bit tricky, so I'd recommend using a nearby public lot and taking a short walk over.

I went with her suggestion, and it did not disappoint. I chose the beef/lamb gyro option, and everything came together perfectly--the tzatziki sauce, Greek rice, veggies, and meat were all flavorful and well-balanced. The pita bread slices on the side were a nice bonus. The ordering style is counter service--you order, grab a seat, and wait for your food. My order was ready quickly, and the staff were friendly and attentive. The restaurant itself is clean and well-maintained. The only downside is parking: the lot is tiny and usually full, and street parking is limited. Luckily, I was able to find a spot. Overall, it's a solid choice for a tasty and satisfying lunch.
