Saizon

The service was extremely high quality, and very engaging. We had a reservation, and it took some time for us to be seated. The staff apologized and explained the situation to us, and decided to give us an appetizer on the house. Interestingly enough, high quality is a common thing at this restaurant. Saizon has a very exotic and simple menu, I never would've imagined breakfast served on a bao bun. I was fortunate to try their "bananas foster" which I honestly was not expecting such flavors. I wish I had way more. I can say the same for the other food I tasted. Again, extremely high quality here. For an exotic name, it does live up to the aura it produces when you say "saizon."The ambience does feel high stakes.

The food here never disappoints in flavor or quality, the service is always top tier and very polite, and the environment there always feels like a place at twice the price. Soft light and upscale decor, great for an upscale date night or a business meeting.The only downside side is that it appears they bring on certain dishes temporarily (I'm looking at you bone marrow and elk steak!) which is a bit disappointing.

OK, round two. Went back today for brunch, had a wonderful experience. The food came out super fast and was wonderfully made. I love, love the view of the kitchen and y hat you can see everything that's going and being prepared for the customers.Everyone that works there is working super hard to provide great service. Everyone from the hostesses in the front, the cooks, the waiters, the people helping keep the tables clutter free. Everything we ordered and received today was spot on. The food was excellent, I would not have changed a single thing on anything that we ordered.The bathrooms were clean the floor was spotless. I really had a truly wonderful experience at Saizon.

Came on a weekend night and luckily we had a reservation because they were packed! The two of us obviously got more than we could finish, but everything was delicious. Service was okay, but nothing memorable.Cocktails were yummy and steak was cooked well. I probably wouldn't order the seafood tower again, but it wasn't terrible for Fresno seafood.Would come back for a birthday dinner or date night!

WOW!! We decided to have date night at Saizon and we left so impressed. Our waitress was extremely attentive and kind and the interior was dim and romantic, albeit a little loud. To start, we ordered the chicken taquitos which paired extremely well with the bright salsa verde. Absolutely delicious. The charcoal oysters can be skipped. We found them greasy and not as tasty as the rest of the meal. For our entrees, we ordered Mary's Brick Chicken whose mushroom risotto, roasted chicken, and seasonal greens were flavorful and harmonious. My only critique would have to be the texture. Although it was absolutely delightful, the softness of the chicken, risotto, greens and carrots left the dish almost "mushy." We also ordered the prime spiced sirloin, they couldn't go less than a medium due to the prior sous vide but it was tender and wonderfully cooked. However, we thought the 3x cooked potatoes was not a very good compliment to the steak as the flavors were not very cohesive. Overall, delicious food, beautiful interior and kind staff. The only thing was that it took super long to receive our entrees, our waitress said that the kitchen got behind a huge order so we were left waiting for quite a while. I also recommend making a reservation well in advance, it gets VERY busy so just try and help yourself out!

I love the vibe and food. Went for valentines day. I do like how the outside heaters really do keep you warm. Some places have them so low or far away it doesn't warm you up. The staff was great. Good drinks . Only downside was the bathroom. It's really small

Been here a couple of times and the experiences were great! Ambiance here is trendy and modern. Its dark lighting combined with its Mexican-inspired decal really is stunning. The choice of inside vs outside seating doesn't even matter because it is just as impressive. What I love about this place is that they have a rotating menu so the flavors and cuts they had in spring will be different from what you have in the fall! Most other times I've come here the service is exceptional. Everybody is extremely positive, willing to answer questions and explain dishes, and over-the-top attentive. The most recent time our server was indifferent. Very quick to get our orders out of the way and not attentive at all. However, this was just one experience out of many other extremely positive ones. Not Quite a Mule (5/5): One thing you for sure come here for is the mixed drinks. They have their own twists on traditional drinks that you are used to. It is just enough of a change to be both familiar and unique to create a new experience. I love moscow mules, and the not quite a mule had a perfect blend of lime, ginger, sweetness, and alcohol. Only downside is that it did not come in the copper mug! Highly reccomend. Oysters (4/5): Saizon's menu has a plethora of seafood options, and if you are not allergic I think that's definitely a sign that you should order one. We decided to get oysters as an appetizer and it is clear that seafood is their specialty because they tasted insanely fresh. You get a choice of east coast or west coast style, both were good but out server never clarified which one is which. Pork Belly Baos (5/5): EVERYBODY has to at least try this once. I never imagined a restuarant being masters of pork belly but somehow this place got it. The pork belly is so tender and flavorful, and it is complemented well with the soft bao and marinate. I only wish that it came in a plate with more than two, because I can wolf down at least 20. Prime Spiced Serloin (4/5): Sounded so good on paper: wet aged and slow roasted sirloin with their grilled onion chimichurri. I will say that the chimichurri was not as strong and flavorful as I was hoping, and the sirloin lacked my preference of seasoning. Comes with grilled onions and brussel sprouts that were pretty darn good. You get an additional side of your choice and I went with the potatoes and these had the perfect texture and flavor.Overall a great experience and will be one of my go-to choices for any special occasion!

I finally got to try Saizon after having it on my list-try list for a few years. I was in town for the Holidays and met up with some previous coworkers for a Christmas dinner. We had a reservation and our party was for 9 people. Yelp didn't disappoint me with the chicken Taquitos recommendation. They were amazing. We also got the queso dip as our appetizer and it was also really delicious with a nice hint of jalopeno but it wasn't spicy. We have great service from start to finish. They were also kind to let us split up the bill in pairs. Also friendly wait staff to take our group photos!

Brunch was very yummy everything was tasty. My favorite bite was definitely the spicy crab tostada. The restaurant is very nicely designed with an open layout concept with both indoor and outdoor dining spaces. Service was nice and food came out surprisingly quickly. Definitely a good option to have in the Fresno/Clovis area.
