“The best place to party ,friendly atmosphere and quality of service.”
“I wish there was one in Fresno!
Eryn, the owner is very knowledgeable about all things wine. She's always ready to answer any questions you may have. All of the staff are friendly. They also have amazing charcuterie boards! I definitely recommend stopping by the next time you're in Downtown Visalia!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Not sure what's worse, the food or the service. Overpriced mediocre food. Our party was almost done with dinner before I got my beer. Asked for napkins, ended up getting up and getting my own from another table.”
“Great atmosphere And the food was Awesome The people who work there are on top of it … great service!!”

“This was a tiny bit hard to find, but the door is on the right side of Starbucks on Main Street. The inside is a little uneventful, but that's not a reason to stay away from this magical place. They have a beautiful display of pastry offerings in their tiny showcase. And their bread shelves are all the way to the back of the room behind the counter, so its a bit hard to see what they offer on those. I came for a proper French croissant and cinnamon roll but left with a sack full of pastries! Trust me when I say you will not be disappointed in these excellent laminated buttery delights. We will definitely be back for true artisan bread and pastry!”
“We decided on Thai Basil based on other reviews being mainly positive and we were not disappointed! The Kee Mao was very good and the chicken in garlic sauce was very flavorful and tasted so fresh! You get a spring roll and rice with the lunch portion and the spring roll was super delicious as well! The green tea was also delicious!”
“This is hands down the best tacos in visalia!!! Juan is an amazing chef and we have had him for our Christmas party several times and its always been amazing and all the guests loved it! I would highly recommend him for lunch, dinner or your parties/events. He will come to you and make you the best tacos fresh to order!!!! Amazing guy and amazing food.”
“Weekday-Lunchtime: party of 4 for a birthday lunch. All staff were very, very nice! The food was very tasty and the Crème Brûlée was excellent!! Great experience! Will return.”
Outdoor Dining
“Absolutely love Left of Center! Always the best service, food, drinks and atmosphere. We celebrated a birthday tonight and Sarah was our server. She went above and beyond for us! Highly recommend the Jalapeño Burger with sweet potato fries, but ultimately everything has great flavor and delicious. Do not hesitate to have lunch or dinner at Left of Center! I only wish they were open on Sundays.”
“The food is excellent the pesto SoCal all of it is good you need to come down here to Modesto Turlock, Stanislas, County, San, Joaquin County build them and they will come. The food is excellent, but we need it closer to home. The nearest one is Visalia. I actually ate there today. It was great.”
“better service at barrel house its more welcoming than stacked you go there and you atleast feel welcome”
“We absolutely love eating at JoJo’s! The food is consistently delicious. The team is always so friendly and welcoming. The portions are large. My favorite menu item is the funnel fries - there are so many different ways to customize them. If you haven’t tried JoJo’s Grill-A-Dog I’m not sure what you’re waiting for.”
“Ever since I first had California Fish Grill’s fried Swai, I’ve enjoyed eating here. Since finding that they have grilled mahi mahi on the menu, I am loving the place even more. If you have never had mahi mahi, I HIGHLY recommend it. Mahi Mahi is a mild, flaky, white meat fish. It’s from the tropics and, to date, is only wild caught. If you like halibut, you’ll like mahi mahi. I prefer it with the garlic butter as I really want to taste the delicate flavor of the fish. Don’t miss this local Visalia, CA eatery. If you like fish, it’s a must!”
“I have a very low grade gluten allergy - no celiac or anything but boy did this make my meal experience miserable. I don't know how many times I told them not to worry too much as I wasn't going to die from a little bit of gluten, I had a supervisor warn the kitchen, a manager come to my table twice to argue my choice of meal(chicken and potatoes) and my meal came 15 minutes after my husbands did. You would think that they would have the decency to comp a drink or something but we received the bill with everything on it and full price. And to add fuel to the fire - it was my birthday.
update: Olive Garden did well in making this right. We revisited the restaurant and had a wonderful experience with an excellent waiter and had a delicious meal. The difference was to just let the waiter know that the gluten issue was a "preference" rather than an allergy. To those the redeemed the restaurant, Thank you!”

“Amazing food! Everything tasted so FRESH!!! Best Mexican food I’ve had in a long time!! The owner makes everything fresh, service was FANTASTIC, waitress/cashier we had was so friendly, and just the right amount of attentive. The owner came out to ask how we liked the food- he was VERY personable, humble, and makes things with heart! Many of the recipes are family recipes! Our favorite new place! ( don’t be fooled by the location, this place is a true gem!)”

I took my brother who had never been there before and he absolutely can’t wait to go back again. Excellent team and service! I love that we can join the waitlist from the app.”
“The food was fantastic!!!! If you like spicy hot or mild creamy this is the place to go. You decide the heat level. Full bar, sports on TV even has video games you can play at the bar. Family friendly relaxed. the seating area is a little low key. Nothing fancy but very inviting. My new favorite spot.”
“The food was very good and tasty. The Singapore Noodles, Salt and Pepper Fish, Jade Fried Rice, Pork Bun, Shrimp Dumplings and Sesame Ball all tasted wonderful and filled my Asian palate craving. My wife and I will surely return to try other items on their menu. Service was also excellent.”
“Excellent seafood! My favorite is the camerones el mojo de ajo (shrimp with garlic & butter). You get a lot of shrimp and it is well prepared.”

“Lived in Visalia for 20+ years and I've always seen this place but never gone. It's easily the best Chinese food in the city in my opinion. A sweet older Asian couple are the only people working and they are very friendly and accommodating. The food is absolutely DELICIOUS. And the price is cheaper than most if not all the other Chinese places in the city. We got broccoli chicken, broccoli beef, and orange chicken with fried rice and chow mein and I will absolutely come back and try the whole menu.
The flavor of each dish was so POP WOW AMAZING. Definitely recommend to anyone craving delicious food. Me and my fiance cam back and ordered ONE lunch special plate for the both of us and it was plenty of food. Good portions.”
“Everything I order was phenomenal! Fast & friendly service! The waitress staff are very attentive and has excellent customer service. All the staff are friendly. If you are looking for the best & freshest sushi, this is definitely the spot in Visalia! So many selections to choose from and not over priced for quality food. This is my new favorite spot. Nice & quiet atmosphere.”
“So, so, so good! The sauce is perfect, not too sweet and very tomatoey. Ranch is perfect and I loooooved the garlic cheese bread. The owners and employees are always kind and super friendly. I also love that they take EBT 🥰. I had to order a separate sweet and spicy for my husband because it’s so good he doesn’t want to share with the kids🤣. I tried the garlic chicken tonight for the first time and I think I have a new favorite😍.”
“Great food and huge selection of vitamins and herbs! Definitely recommend this place!”
“The food was, as usual, perfect. The service was great! Super friendly. Bar tenders 🙌🏼 are always fun.”

“They actually make the food made to order and more importantly they get your order right come on like other fast food chains which oftentimes will put whipped cream on your milkshake even though you specifically asked them not to and they repeated it back to but I still do it anyway. The staff is very kind and always offers a pup cup to my dogs. Day care about the value and quality of the food that put out and it shows.
Kid-friendliness: They have great kids meals that are very affordable and are only about $10 which these days you cannot even get a Happy Meal for and it is quite a bit of food even enough for me as an adult”
“Very cool outdoor food truck. The food is delicious. Had the burrito, street tacos looked good, but was too full to try them. Not a lot of sitting space but shade provided with clean picnic tables. Highly recommend if you like more authentic street style Mexican food. Will go again.”

“We walked here from our hotel not expecting much but really impressed by the service and food! The atmosphere is clean and simple, with a few tvs playing Hispanic sports and news. Booths line the walls and banquet tables down the middle. Beer service only; no liquor, fyi.
The food portions are very large, and incredibly fresh and hot. The server was super sweet and made conversation while going above and beyond. Will likely return here several times on this trip.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free”
“La Fiesta Burger has been a favorite for our family for years, getting close to a decade. Their make one of the best burgers since Mearls on Mooney Blvd. They make a great Milkshake just wish they were bigger! I just try and keep telling myself, our American portions lg, bigger, jumbo and super jumbo (I have no idea what sizes are in order) this had to be helpful obese problems!
So I don't recommend changing anything!”
“Love this place a lot, their food always taste so fresh and delicious. I prefer going here than Dave’s chicken in my opinion it’s better quality and taste! My favorite is the retro sandwich and the spicy mac n cheese chicken fries! The wait is a little long but I suggest you call in before and pull up when it’s ready”
“Wonderful experience. Staff very attentive and the White Devil pizza was excellent and friends raved about the pasta. Looking forward to stopping in again on my next visit”
“A fun place for billiards and to see familiar and new faces. They have a smoking area. New people come in all the time. It's got a good vibe. The staff is great. Tip like you mean it, they work hard. The people are diverse. That's for sure! But that's how I like it.THURSDAYS they do karaoke and Ashlee rocks the house every week!Drinks are $6 on average. They remodeled the bathrooms lately (early 2022 probably). They have one large pool table and 4 regular sized tables. A juke box, 2 dart boards, a change machine, and free water. It's cool. I'll be back.”
“Great food great service and newly renovated with a beautiful outdoor patio! After you’ve taken your dog for a walk in the dog park enjoy lunch or dinner. Dogs welcome on patio!!”
“This is a delightful little wine bar downtown! They have small bites and a wonderful wine and beer selection. The bartender was really nice. I had a great time here and will definitely be coming back.
Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free flatbread options”
“Best food ever but they need to answer their phone every once in awhile it’s impossible to get through😂😭”
“The employees are knowledgeable about their business on pizza ? and the establishment is clean ? it's just a little small ! Having the atmosphere geared to eat and leave quickly ! not having very pleasant seating ! Chairs are hard and packed like a sardine which doesn't make you want to sit and enjoy but stuff and grub and go ! But the food is good ?”
“We usually go in on Tuesday for the taco special however the tacos are good here on the other days of the week as well ? Good food and service every time I go in 5 stars”
“We had the best time at Taco Tuesday at Que Pasa in Visalia on Mooney. We stayed way longer than we anticipate. The DJ was SO entertaining. The tacos were really good! We’ll definitely be back”

Love coming in here for lunch or early dinner. Wife loves coming here too, friendly staff good music. Definitely recommend
Wheelchair accessibility: Big doors and ramp to get to table seating very comfortable.”

“The best Sushi!! You know what’s not spread throughout Visalia with all the vast places to eat? Consistency!!!!! This place has it!! I have the same experience Every. Single. Time. PERIOD!!
