Discovering a new restaurant that you love is a unique kind of joy.

So with that in mind, we want to know your favorite new restaurant of 2022.

Specifically, what’s the best independently owned new restaurant that opened this past year in the Fresno/Clovis area?

We’re skipping the chains and franchises for now to focus on the locally owned mom-and-pops. They’re the ones that are bringing something truly new to the market.

If you need a refresher, check out our story about the more than 50 restaurants (chains included) that opened in the Fresno area in 2022.

Scroll down to vote in our poll.

First though, type “YES” in the box to prove you’re a human. And feel free to vote as many times as you want, since this is more about fun than science. (Hit refresh to vote again.)

We’ll share the results sometime next week.
