El Grande Chicharron - (Near Madera, CA)

Adeel Pervez Food was top notch and flavorful. We appreciated the service as well being very efficient and checking in during our meal. Appreciate this being halal and bringing a new cuisine for us Muslims in the area to try. Would recommend checking out! We got the beef bulgogi and Jalapeño fried chicken.

Denise Rooke We started with French onion soup. Absolutely delicious! My husband had duck confit and I had the bacon wrapped pork tenderloin. Both were incredibly tasty. The service was warm and friendly. Chef Ronan regularly stopped to visit with guests and even sat with us for a bit and we chatted about making humble, beautiful ingredients shine. Truly, he and the staff are excellent at making patrons comfortable! Finally, a table side firing of créme bruleé and a generous and rustic chocolate mousse topped our meal off and I have to say, we loved it! We loved it and will definitely return! Merçi beaucoup, Chef and staff! Çest magnifique!

Ke Cao The restaurant has a very cozy space with atmosphere of art, which makes me surprised. Seafood is very fresh and steak is tender and delicious. The green vegetables which recommended by the staff is also amazing. Even the dessert, nice and warm staff told us that it is popular because of not so sweet. Really know the taste of dessert for Asian people

Geo W Absolutely banging barbecue! I randomly came by here for a late lunch and was pleasantly surprised. I always try to eat at local small businesses whenever I have a chance, and I found this place nearby on Google Maps. I ordered the brisket sandwich with sides of macaroni n cheese and beans. The brisket was so darn good. I havent had this good of a brisket since I visited Texas a few years ago. The meat was so tender and cooked perfectly. The flavor was incredibly good. They could have used a slightly better bread for the bun, but it works just the way it is. The mild barbecue sauce was a good compliment The Macaroni n cheese was really good as well. The beans werent my favorite. Ive had better, but it was okay. Just a bit overcooked. If you are looking for good barbecue come here. 4/17/2025 update: the place got a refresh in branding. Still really great barbecue! 6/5 stars for sure.

Hyunseok Gil It has a cozy vibe and friendly service. The Eggs Benedict variants were impressive and delicious, and the orange juice was exceptionally fresh. Highly recommend for a comfortable dining experience

Geetanjali Chugh Almost my first time trying udon, and I absolutely loved it! We ordered the nabeyaki udon, and it was excellent. the broth was light yet full of flavor, and the udon noodles were cooked to perfection. The shrimp tempura that came with it was crispy and satisfying and not greasy at all. Would recommend this udon. We also tried the seiro mushi, which is a complete meal featuring steamed vegetables, unagi, tempura, and a mini udon. If you’re hungry, definitely go for this. The unagi is served with a sweet and umami sauce. While I usually don’t enjoy sweet flavors in savory dishes, I still found the overall dish to be worth trying. The service was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, making for a really pleasant dining experience. The portion size is generous. The only downside is the wait: be sure to sign up on Yelp to join the queue, as it can get busy. That said, for this level of quality, the wait is absolutely worth it.
