Spare decor and colorful artwork add presence to this gourmet deli, which is ideal for upscale food and an unpretentious but classy atmosphere. The aroma of baked goods and incredible food provides a hint of what's to come. Salads, sandwiches, and appetizers (like sweet potato fries) make tasty, light fare. Complete meals feature meat and vegetables in satisfying portions, and wines are also available. Don't forget to try their luscious desserts and, maybe, take a little something home for later. |

Santa Fe Basque Restaurant |

Description:
For more than 75 years, this long-lived restaurant has been serving the people of Fresno. Interior surroundings are comfortable, although not elaborate, but they're not the reason folks visit anyway. The food is a bonanza of satisfaction, from lamb loin chops to fried chicken, orange roughy, and calamari almandine. Steaks, pork chops, prime rib, and spareribs also elicit moans of pleasure. Family-style lunches and complete dinners guarantee that no one goes away unfulfilled. A local tradition. |

Description:
After passing through large blue doors ornamented with metal zig-zags and glass, visitors to VVV are immersed in a decor of metallic patinas – coppers, blues, and greens. Overhead, sculptural wire pendants provide illumination, and brick walls contribute texture of another sort. The fashionable place boasts an electic cooking style, boosted by Asian and tropical accents. Fresh seafood is popular and ranges from Chilean sea bass to shrimp. You'll also find pork, chicken, and the like, dressed with fruit glazes, accompanied by lush sauces, spiked with pungent herbs. Wonderful desserts, a great bar scene, and a fabulous outdoor terrace magnify the appeal. |
