I have visited this restaurant a couple of times. Today, was exceptional! Dani & Savana were our servers. The food (Asian Chicken Salad, Cobb Salad & Gilroy Garlic Fries) Absolutely delicious!! The service was spot on. I also believe the pricing is a nod of acceptance as well. I recently returned to Fresno/Clovis after living in Phoenix. Happy to be living near this friendly establishment. Oh, the Central Valley is home to this senior. I'll be back!! Thank you Mad Duck!!!

BEST MAD DUCK EVER. I've being coming here for a long time. The consistency is amazing and the customer service is always great! The food is top notch as well as the ambiance.

Good food, always a pleasant environment and the waiters/waitresses are very attentive with checking in on things and refilling drinks!

Came here after two cities marathon. Service and food were fantastic. Loved the ambiance and the waitress let our kids sit at their own kids table! 10/10 recommend.

We went to the Mad Duck for a late lunch and this place was amazing: great ambiance, great food, stellar service from our multi-tasking server Carissa. As soon as we walked into the door, we were greeted by Carissa. She took our order, delivered our food and drink, came by to check after us more than once, always with a radiant smile on her face while multi-tasking. Yes, Carissa was multitasking and handling it wonderfully. I wondered how Carissa could do all that and more. As a matter of fact she was the only person on the floor tending to all 7 parties there at the time, not to mention she also mixed drink (bartending) and answered the phone, even bussed the table for the next party . I observed her while eating my food and was amazed by her efficiency and her professionalism! She never stopped working! Only after we finished our food that another person joined Carissa on the floor, and the bartender came on his shift, probably back from his lunch break. We will certainly be back to the Mad Duck when we are back in Clovis again on our next business trip which is every two weeks! I would like for the Mad Duck manager or owner to take note of my comment and value Carissa as their "must-have" employee! For me the good food and great service come hand in hand. Good food alone is far from being enough if there's a lack of great service.

Excellent beer and food. We loved everything on the taster flight, almond brown was extra good and unique. I wish we could have taken a can home. Garlic fries and veggie burger were delicious too.

I always love coming to Mad Duck. I have been a patron for years now! I just saw there's a second location, which is awesome. I highly recommend everything on the menu. You can't go wrong!

One of my favorite places to enjoy some very tasty food and beverage, living close by is a convenient bonus ;-) This day I treated myself to a fantastic lunch because of a healthy update from the doctor sooo I ordered something special, the tacos were very delicious and the Pub Ale was and is my current favorite, service was quick (I sat at the bar) and being familiar with the menu aided in my ordering, they had sports and movies rolling and the decor is reflective of the diversity of those who regular this business...I like it here
