Several misting fans brought relief to customers waiting in line to order at Heirloom<\/a> restaurant despite the sweltering August-in-Fresno heat.<\/p>\n

The farm-to-table restaurant, which opened in Park Crossing Shopping Center in 2019, frequently sees long lines for people who are ordering food at its counter. Repeat customers have reported waiting as long as 45 minutes or more, but said the quality of the food and the service Heirloom provides keeps them coming back.<\/p>\n

Heirloom doesn\u2019t take reservations, which means the only ways to get a plate are to order ahead or wait in line.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe quality of everything here is 10 out of 10,\u201d said Karina Granados, one of the customers waiting in line.<\/p>\n

Many people waiting in line said they were with a group, or were introducing the restaurant to people who weren\u2019t from the area. A second Heirloom restaurant is coming to Clovis, with plans to open in late 2027 or 2028.<\/a><\/p>\n
