01
Best overall pick
Trelio Food & Wine
Old Town Clovis Dining Strip • Seasonal New American Fine-Dining Room • Best Overall Pick For Special Occasions
An intimate, chef-driven spot where seasonal tasting-style plates and a deep wine list make dinner feel like an event.
Trelio is where Clovis locals go when they want Fresno-level dining without leaving Old Town. The small space keeps the focus on precise cooking, with a menu that shifts around what’s fresh and interesting rather than sticking to greatest hits. Expect thoughtful wine pairings, polished but unpretentious service, and a pace that encourages lingering over dessert.
02
Best burger patio
House of JuJu - Old Town Clovis
Old Town Clovis Centennial Plaza Side • Laid-Back Gourmet Burger And Craft Beer Spot • Best Patio For Burgers And Wine
Creative burgers, loaded tater tots, and local brews come together on a lively patio that feels built for long afternoons.
House of JuJu packs a lot of personality into a compact Old Town footprint, from customizable burgers to playful sides that are practically a meal on their own. The shaded patio is prime people-watching territory on market and event nights, with a steady hum of conversation and live music nearby. It’s the kind of place where you can show up in flip-flops or a sundress and feel equally at home.
03
Best steakhouse splurge
13 Prime Steak
North Clovis At Willow And Nees • Modern Classic Steakhouse • Top Choice For Steak Lovers
A polished steakhouse with serious cuts, strong cocktails, and a dining room that feels special without being stuffy.
13 Prime Steak brings big-city steakhouse energy to a busy Clovis shopping corner, complete with white tablecloths and dim, flattering lighting. The menu leans into well-marbled steaks, robust sides, and a bar program that takes martinis and old fashioneds seriously. It’s a natural pick for anniversaries, business dinners, or any night when only a perfectly cooked ribeye will do.
04
Best for beer and bites
The Mad Duck
Herndon Corridor Near Clovis Community • Lively Brewpub And Kitchen • Go-To For Groups And Game Nights
A bustling brewpub pouring house beers alongside upgraded bar food that works just as well for lunch as it does for late games.
The Mad Duck is built for hanging out: big TVs, energetic servers, and a menu that makes it easy to share everything from wings to flatbreads. The house and guest beers rotate often enough that regulars rarely get bored, and there are plenty of non-beer options for mixed groups. It’s a reliable meet-up spot after work, post-game, or any time you want a casual table that can handle a crowd.
05
Best comfort Italian
Luna Pizzeria & Italian Restaurant
Shaw Avenue East Of Clovis Avenue • Old-School Family Italian Restaurant • Best For Big Family Dinners
Red-sauce classics, cheesy baked pastas, and shareable pizzas anchor a dining room that feels like it has hosted generations of Clovis families.
Luna leans into everything people secretly want from a neighborhood Italian joint: generous portions, familiar flavors, and servers who remember regulars. The menu covers the bases from thin-crust pies to hearty lasagna and chicken Parm, with baskets of bread that keep disappearing and getting refilled. It’s the sort of place where kids, grandparents, and everyone in between can agree on dinner without much debate.
