Papa's Place - Clovis

I love this place!!! The food is excellent and the staff treats you like they have known you before...the atmosphere is great...Food: 5/5

Pros: great location, friendly staff, decently timed service. Cons: our server seemed like they hadn’t tried anything, when asked if they enjoyed a certain drink or dish we got a lot of “I haven’t tried that one yet but it looks good and others seem to enjoy it” to everything we inquired about. Our drinks definitely had cheeeap liquor in them. I got their tequila sangria and was extremely disappointed in the taste. Tequila had that cheap bite to it, and it basically had a wine floater so it wasn’t really a sangria at all more like a juicy cocktail with a wine floater. My husbands drink wasn’t any better. We ordered the pretzel and cheese dip for an app and the cheese was good but not spectacular. The pretzel wasn’t bad but the texture of it was like it was heated up in a microwave very chewy. We had the intention of having dinner and everything there, but ended up leaving and going elsewhere because we felt like any other food and drink wouldn’t be good and worth the cost. Each drink and app was at or above $15 and if we would’ve know our drinks were priced that high, we would’ve sent them back. But staff was attentive and friendly. The vibe isn’t bad but definitely not what we were expecting. The restaurant feels dated and oddly laid out too, but it is clean.

Just tried going, something seemed a little off. We went in to be seated and, even though there was a table available to our left as we entered, having no reserved table sign, the hostess said there were no tables available. Plus, there were tables available outside. When my wife asked how long of a wait to be seated at a table, the hostess said she didn't know. Very odd. We left, since it seemed they were OK without our business. The hostess was not apologetic at all.

Staff was very accommodating. I primarily went to hear friends performing. The place was packed and there were no tables available. I explained why I was there and, since I was planning to stay for friends' entire gig, I was willing to wait in the breezeway until a table became available. My wait was short and was exactly where I was hoping to sit. I only ordered a couple of glasses of wine during my time there but the waitress was very attentive and friendly. I truly do enjoy going to Papa's Place when my friends, Fire and Rain, perform there.

Papa’s Place was alright. The wife and I piped in for dinner tonight. I was a little out off because it’s a small place and they had live music and it was a little loud and the band wasn’t that great lol. We started out with the fried green beans which were ok, I had the pork belly and it was just ok to, the wife had the cob salad and she enjoyed it. Service was good, parking was good and ambiance was ok too. I’d go back again if I had to haha. Go check them out and have your own experience
