French Dip & Fries (it was so good I almost didn't get the picture in time)
Chuck M.

Visited some friends in Chowchilla. The restaurant of choice was the Orchard Bar & Grill. It was a quality experience, providing fantastic food as expected. I had the Stampede Smash with a side salad. It was excellent. My wife and a friend had the French Dip sandwich with fries which was Awesome. I snagged a bite and can confirm, It Was Awesome! Another friend had the chicken sandwich, the Redskin, which she enjoyed. The restaurants ambiance is amazing. We had such a great time. Our waitress, Caila was Fantastic! She took the extra time to be sure our drinks stayed full and our meal experience was successful. She had a great attitude and represented the restaurant well. I'm looking forward to returning with my brother in law for the Prime Rib special on Friday nights. That is also a FANTASTIC MEAL! Again, Great Food, Great Service and a Great Time Orchard Bar & Grill!

Orchard breakfast with bacon

Locally owned neighborhood bar and grill. The food is simple and tasty. The waitress was friendly and chatty. The only setback was the long wait for some hot water after everyone else had their drinks.

Philly Cheesesteak

We stopped here on our way through town and was surprised to find that it was super cute on the patio. The food was good but the service was extremely slow. We walked in and there were two servers in the kitchen who kept looking at us but took over 5min for one of them to come out and greet us. Once we received service it was nice but it was very very slow.

French dip with sidewinder fries
Mari P.

In spite of my server being extremely busy, she did acknowledge me. I sat at the bar and watched the food passing by.....it all looked scrumptious. My French Dip sandwich did not disappoint BUT, the sidewinder fries were the star of the meal. Ambiance was friendly and I definitely will return. I highly recommend!

Ford Bologna sandwich

Disappointed the last 2 times I've been there the 1st time they where out of ingredients for what I wanted and then today I get out in the rain and at 1131 not serving lunch yet so I'll go else where to see if can get a nice hamburger and fries

A and each opened to see how Fresh & Delicious it is!!!

12/31/24 Getting lunch!! Such a great bar & grill! Really nice wood bar. Country music playing. Greeted by many and the worker was happy to take my order to-go. I ended up getting the California Chicken Sandwich with no mayo, 1/2 onion rings, 1/2 sidewinder fries. The worker had no problem setting that up. Paid for it and waited at the bar for it to be ready. Great, key, calm atmosphere. Received order shortly later & left. Lunchtime! California Chicken sandwich was LARGE! Very tasty!! Fresh and delicious!! Chicken cooked perfectly! Even better with the pepper jack to spice it and hot sauces included! Avocado and bacon added to it making it REALLY DELICIOUS!! Sidewinder Fries were Really GREAT too!! Definitely a nice change from the original. Onion rings were crunchy & GREAT also!! FANTASTIC, GREAT lunch with lots of leftovers!! GREAT service too!! They deserve every star!!! Highly recommended!!!

Chicken fried steak, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans with tomato.
Michele N.

The chef at this restaurant truly knows their craft. They offer fantastic happy hour prices from Monday to Friday, available until 6 PM! Chicken wings (rubbed) were awesome. With great value, excellent service, and amazing food, it's hard to beat. We enjoyed the chicken fried steak tonight, and it was delightful. The drinks are expertly made as well. Don't miss the prime rib served on Fridays and Saturdays!

Stampede Smash burger
Luis H.

Stopped for lunch and had to wait as it was a packed house. Waitress was friendly and attentive always checked in on us. Smash burger was good. Portobello burger had good flavor to it just a bit messy to eat. The place is small but definitely worth trying out.

Prime rib
Philip J.

Great restaurant off the 99 perfect stop off between Merced and Fresno. Great food, great service, clean place. I highly recommend the pulled pork fries, they give a hefty searing of them and the pork is juicy. The prime rib was excellent. I wasn't expecting it to be so large! Server here was really attentive and did a great job. Unfortunately they were out of Salmon that night, so we didn't get to try it. Restroom was stocked and clean. Nice job, we'll be back again!

Monie M.

The ambiance was nice. I had the smash burger and my husband had the sliders. The food was great and so was the service. Amber was our server and was very nice and efficient. Thank you

Extremely extremely disappointed looked online looking for a place that had steak sandwiches or…read moreribs found this place online it said steak sandwiches were $11. I called and ordered two and an order of jalapeño poppers. I get there to pick it up. The young lady behind the bar says it's $48 that's excuse me $48. How does two sandwiches for $11 and an order of jalapeño poppers come up to 50 bucks and I showed her online what but it said on your guises online thing $11 for the sandwiches because all that's an old man she was $48 so the service was terrible. She was rude. I already posted on Facebook for people to be aware. I will never come back and to top it off. The food wasn't all that good solid. If your prices have changed, you should change them online. Also, there is a law against price gouging like this I don't expect a response, but just let everybody know beware.

Winner! Ordered it with no mayo, and a side salad with Italian dressing on the side. She said it would be ready in 15 minutes. I went on to get it shortly later. Greeted by a kind worker and order was ready. Abs brought to me. Paid for thw order and wished a good day! Very nice bar! Hidden little gem. Seriously though. It took a bit to find. You wouldn't know it's back there. Right, very end corner of the lot. Lunchtime! The sandwich is large. Already split in half. I had half and it was really good! Nice, spicy kick from the pepper jack cheese. Fresh bread, tomato and tasty Philly steak. The side salad was good. Fresh tomatoes, cheese and lettuce. Definitely missing something crunchy, like croutons, but still good! Good service and lunch! Recommended!

We were heading toward Yosemite and decided to stop here on a whim and I am so glad we did…read more The location was easy to find, and there was plenty of seating, so we were able to sit down right away. As soon as we looked over the menu, my mouth was already watering. We ordered the aguachiles verdes, the molcajete supreme, and I added a side of fries. When I say the food came out fast, I mean FAST, especially for food this fresh. The wait staff was attentive, friendly, and checked in just enough without being overbearing. The aguachile was honestly one of the best I've had. The green sauce was incredibly flavorful, perfectly balanced, and everything tasted fresh and vibrant. The molcajete supreme did not disappoint. The sauce was rich and delicious, and the portion of carne and shrimp was generous and very satisfying. You can tell care goes into the food here. And somehow, even the fries were amazing .... crispy, hot, and the perfect side. If you're passing through on your way to Yosemite, this place is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back.

I always thought this place was just a butcher shop, but they cater as well. We hired them to cook…read morethe meat for our family reunion of about 50 people this past weekend and everyone at the party was so impressed with their cooking. The tri tip we ordered was cooked to perfection. We also had them make chicken quarters, which they cut into thighs and drum sticks for us. Their customer service was very friendly and made you feel as if you were family to them. We will 100% be using them in the future for any catering we need.

Chases Chop Shop has the best meat and side dishes. It's so much better than any meat you will ever…read moreget in a grocery store. It is so fresh and of such great quality. Yes it cost a little more than the grocery store but the quality of meat that you receive is worth so much more than what you pay. Just placed an order for 10 pounds of hamburger meat, the apple sausage, Honey cured bacon, the ultimate meatloaf, blue cheeseburgers and the scallop potatoes. I love how everything is individually wrapped/sealed especially the hamburger meat. When you order the hamburger meat it is vacuum sealed in 1 pound packages. The ultimate meatloaf........ how can you not love an old-fashioned meatloaf wrapped in bacon? Even though it's from a store, you can totally tell it's made with love. I would 100% recommend Chases Chop Shop to all of my friends and family for the freshest, best quality meat you could ever want. Yes everything is delivered to your home frozen but once you thaw it out you would never know anything that you ordered was frozen. They are definitely a must try.
