Visalia Restaurants

One of California's oldest communities outside of San Francisco and Los Angeles, Visalia's lifestyle reflects its agricultural heritage as well as its status as a quiet little beach town. Traditional Italian baked pasta, spaghetti and pizza can be found along with lighter contemporary specialties, including gluten-free pasta and pizza. Italian establishments are plentiful, ranging from casual, family-owned lunch counters to formal dining establishments complete with leather booths and candle-lit tables. Downtown, try traditional American cafes with early-bird dinner specials, or sample more global cuisines like Thai and Japanese. Pubs with pizza, burgers and beer please hungry appetites along with Danish- and European-inspired chalets that serve sausages with eggs and potatoes for breakfast and spaetzle with butter for dinner.
