    Chicken & Shrimp Carbonara (added mushrooms) topped with cheese
    Christina F.

    Our party of 4 preferred and opted for a table in the bar area with our favorite server. We enjoyed our drinks, breadsticks, salads, soups, and pasta. Always delighted with the music selection. Hopes to return soon.

    Never Ending Soup, Salad & Breadsticks

    Came to Olive Garden in Clovis with my family for the Never-Ending Pasta Bowl ($16), and it was such a good experience. We did the online check-in, and even though the restaurant was packed, our wait was only about 10 minutes for a party of six. Huge perk! We were seated in a booth, and our server Erick B. took care of us. From the start, you could tell he was hustling--this guy was everywhere at once--but he still managed to stay on top of everything. He asked about drinks, tried to upsell appetizers (which I get, that's part of the job), but more importantly, he was attentive. He brought waters right away, checked in multiple times, kept the soups and pastas coming, and made sure we had cheese on everything. He may not have been the most smiley or chatty server, but honestly, I respect servers who focus on making sure guests are taken care of. He worked hard and did an amazing job--seriously, shout out to Erick B., he deserves a raise. As for the food: everything was hot, tasty, and came out quickly. The soups were flavorful, the pastas hit the spot, and the portions were huge--two of us ate for about $32, and we still had leftovers to take home. Great value, great service, and a solid family dinner spot.

    This was a great experience. We don't go to Olive Garden often because I can make pasta at home, but today was a special occasion and Olive Garden was chosen. Based on pictures we took in 2016, they had updated the interior decor. The atmosphere was nice. Our server was Jason and he was so accommodating and friendly. He made us feel welcomed and taken well care of. He made sure to fill our cups as soon as he noticed without us even having to ask. He made our experience great. The food was a good value for the price. I got the Tour of Italy which comes with lasagna, chicken parm, pasta Alfredo, and the never ending soup/salad. Their salad is always delicious, but I really liked the chicken gnocchi soup. Too full to even take advantage of the free refill of the never-ending soup! We had a coupon for a free appetizer for making an account so we got the toasted ravioli. Omg that was so good! My husband ordered the Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo. The steak was soft and delicious, but the Gorgonzola Alfredo was not yummy at all. That's the only reason I took off 1 star. It kind of tasted like vomit. Otherwise, a fantastic experience with lots of food (I would even say it could stretch to an additional 2 more meals) and a great server. Will definitely return.

    Come here again. Food was good, the cheese with noddles are amazing, but the place have a little strange smell.

    Chicken and dumpling soup with NO chicken and dumpling
    Connor C.

    Came here on a Saturday afternoon with my family after a movie. We showed up around 3:45-4pm with a party of nine. The place was pretty much empty besides a few small parties here and there. The hostess said it would be a 45 minute wait with our party size. That was a bit of a shock to us as there were plenty of tables available that could accommodate our group size. We waited about a half hour and they finally seated us at one of the open tables. Weird experience as no large parties left or came during that time. We asked if they took reservations ahead of time and they did not answer back. Once we were seated, the service was good. Our servers were quick, kind, and personable. The food was alright. The food came out quick and was decent. My one complaint was I ordered soup with my entree. I was excited for the chicken and dumpling soup as it is one of my favorites. To my surprise, I got a bowl of it with no dumplings and one small piece of chicken. Most of the bowl was just broth which was disappointing. I let the server know and they got me a 2nd bowl that had both ingredients in it. Overall, I would say it was a standard dining experience at Olive Garden. It is consistent and pretty average. Nothing great but nothing too bad.

    Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo

    Food was great, service was okay. Restaurant was dirty but it was the end of the night.

    Pasta e Fagioli- used curbside bc I'm sick and my soup is  barely filled halfway.

    i wasn't feeling well so I used curbside to pick up my order. Get home and the bowl is barely filled halfway . Super disappointed. I really like the soup here.

    Breadsticks
    Laurie S.

    Went for an early dinner on a weekday with the family, and we were all pretty content. I'm a big fan of consistency, & I love that when you get seated, & order...you're getting breadsticks! Now the first basket of breaksticks, you could tell had been there a bit, a little hard in the outside and not piping hot, but they're breadsticks- we ate 'em. When another round was brought out... super hot and fresh! We opted for soup and salad, and though we tried multiple soups, Minestrone is still my favorite. Also, a tip salad wise, get the dressing on the side- you can control the amount, and especially if you have leftovers, no soggy lettuce. Kids really took down their massive plates of pasta- buttered spaghetti and Mac n' Cheese. They even got grapes and a drink too included. We got seated upon walking in, for a requested booth, were able to order in minutes, and drinks were chilled and in huge glasses too! You may need to wait a bit for fresh coffee depending upon the time, it was ordered at our table and the refills were not as rapid as the soft drinks and water. This place is a great go-to for consistent, massive amounts of food, good service, and always leftovers! Chocolate Mints at the end are a nice touch too. And- you can totally just pay your bill when you're ready at the table with a card. Had a great visit and will definitely return again.

    Great tasting ramen!…read more My family and I made this place a pit-stop for dinner on a Sacramento to Los Angeles trip. Our original target was the Fresno location, but due to a GPS entry error, we ended up at their Clovis location! It was a little longer drive than usual, but still well-worth the drive. And besides, we were on a family long weekend break so who cares about distance... Our orders were quickly taken on the counter and we were off to find our table. A lot of places to choose from inside and outside seating was also available. And the place was nicely decorated and well-lit! Feels comfortable to dine inside! The menu was quite expansive. And you even have the choice of minor changes to the regular menu. I ordered an Oxtail Ramen...a first of this kind for me, so I just had to have it. And it passed with flying colors! Weird ingredient...but absolutely tasty! And at a really affordable price range! You just have to try our this place when you're in the area! You will love it!

    I came back to Ramen Hayashi for a second try after my first visit left me a bit underwhelmed, and…read moreI'll say right away, this visit was a noticeable improvement. The first time I tried the tonkotsu ramen as takeout and gave it 2 stars. The noodles were soggy from the start and the broth just didn't hit the depth of flavor I was expecting. It felt like something was missing. This time, I dined in and ordered both the spicy miso ramen and tonkotsu ramen, plus a side of chicken karaage. Eating onsite made a difference right away, the noodles held up and the overall taste of the ramen was significantly better. The spicy miso ramen was good, but I was honestly hoping for a stronger miso punch and a bit more heat. It leaned a little milder than expected, though still enjoyable. The tonkotsu this time was better balanced than my first visit. The chicken karaage was good as well. Crispy, light batter, juicy inside really solid fried chicken. I personally would've liked a squeeze of lemon and maybe some Japanese mayo on the side to elevate it even more, but that's just preference. Overall, I feel like this place redeemed itself on a second visit, especially dining in. I'll need to come back to try more of their specialty ramens.

Located in the Barnyard shopping center this Vietnamese restaurant is a little dated, but don't let the decor deter you. The food is in incredible! I ordered a large bowl with thin sliced meat balls along with spring rolls for the table. First off, I should've gotten a small bowl of pho, the large bowls here are massive. I had plenty of leftover for the next day and the day after! The broth was delicious with deep rich flavors and the noodles were slightly al dente, which I loved. I couldn't help myself and active point picked up my bowl and just started sipping the broth. My wife ordered the same thing as I, minus the meatballs and she too, could not get over how much flavor the broth had, almost like they had been slow cooking this for the past three days straight. The spring rolls were 100% handmade and the filling inside was delicious. We did bring our kids with us and we're definitely nervous because they are very picky eaters. They do offer a kids menu, but there isn't much to it. It's basically rice broth and your choice of meat. We ordered my 4-year-old daughter a small bowl of rice with broth and chicken; she loved this and kept asking for more! My son (7) went big and ordered pho with squid... he inhaled everything! Even asking if we could order more squid on the side to which we did and he ate that as well. This was huge win for mom and dad, now we can do pho to the family dining out rotation. This is a family own restaurant and the staff here is incredibly friendly and helpful. Branden, our server, help to answer any questions and was very attentive to make sure we had everything we needed!

I ordered the 6-inch tuna with lettuce, tomato, pickles, jalapeno, and banana peppers, along with a drink. By the time I had filled my drink and walked back to the pickup counter, my sandwich was already done! Apparently, online orders have to be made close to the pick-up time so they sit for too long. So, if five or more people order a sandwich for pickup at 12:30pm, your ass is waiting and walk-ins get taken care of first! They gave me a large tuna portion for my sandwich. It was very fresh and not too heavy on the mayo either, which can create a drippy sando. Loved all the toppings except that they put pickle spears on their sandwiches and not pickle chips... why? The sandwich came on dutch crunch bread, which I normally love, but it was hard a little hard to bite through. The crust was more chewy than crunchy, but still soft on the inside. Decent prices, a huge menu, and they offer most of their sandwiches in wrap form as well.

My memory is shot. I don't want to be handing out 5 stars so easily but I think they deserve it. The restaurant is very clean, and I love the little Asian lanterns they have, all different, above each table. Plenty of seating. When we got there (a little after 5), there was only one other table occupied... by the time we left (6:30), every table was nearly taken. Our waitress, as well as the other on the floor, were both very welcoming and friendly. They handled the service remarkably as a team. The fact that they were a packed house and still were very attentive with us, checking how we're doing, checking on our water refills... these are the little things I appreciate most (and, of course, good food). I got the Pho with the Fatty Brisket, my friend got just the Steak Pho. They have a bar against the wall with all garnishes you may need to grab what you'd like. This is pretty smart... It saves them from waste. Instead of giving people items they may not use-- they would just grab what they'd like themselves. My friend grabbed her goodies, I prefer mine as is. To me, if your broth is good and doesn't require me to flavor it... I'll eat it just like that (unless I feel like adding spice). I've only ever been to a few other Pho places where I had to season up the broth myself...definite no no for them. All my friends who have gone out to eat Pho with me know I eat it just how I get it. Pho from my Mama is a different story though... I put the works (not because it's not flavorful) but, it's just different. Moving on... They also have a Teazona in their establishment. I've tried a few different drinks in the past but came to regularly deciding on the Tiramisu Milk Tea (no flan for me, light boba). Make sure to shake it well. You can also let them know your preference on the level of sweetness. We both got this tonight and it nearly tipped me over on the full scale. Couldn't finish it. Everything was really good though. Pho was the perfect choice for this weird, gloomy weather we've been having. The price is a bit up there but that seems to be the norm everywhere nowadays. But-- for the portion, the quality, and the service? Worth it.

After reviewing the menu selection, it felt like I was waiting for a while just for a staff member to acknowledge us. Instead, the workers were standing with their backs to us , and left us standing there for a while. In fact , I was so confused I was looking around for a kiosk to order my food. The next thing that I didn't like was the price of our lunch. 45.00 for one sandwich , two small cups of soup , two fountain drinks , and a dessert. Seems pricey for a sandwich spot. I get it - this is a step up from Subway. However, for what I spent - I expected more. Finally, the dining room tables were grimy. I had to clean off our own table before the food arrived. I felt like this was inexcusable considering the amount of staff standing around not doing much. Here is what I did like. The menu has a nice variety of hot or cold sandwiches, sides , and desserts. Everything sounded so good. Today, I opted for the Monterey chicken sandwich. While the flavor was good, it ate a little messy. I had chicken pieces falling out and cheese oozing out of the bottom. I don't think I would order this again- there appears to be better options to choose from. The baked potato soup was really good ( salty but delicious)! Hands down , the best thing we tried was Gary's chocolate cake. That cream cheese frosting was heavenly! Heads up- this cake is super sweet ,and a little goes a long way. Feel free to share this dessert. I am coming back to try more menu items- I may have just ordered the wrong sandwich today.
