Noah's Ark Restaurant & Bakery

One of the best beef gyro wrap I've had in forever! Super fresh and the flavor was amazing! The garlic sauce they used- ah-mazing! And I judge all Mediterranean restaurants by their tzatziki and this is pretty damn great. Definitely coming back. I'd take a photo of the food but I ate it too fast.

The falafel was a religious experience. It’s literally the best falafel plate I have ever had. The server was very nice and portions were large, I will be eating well all week. The yogurt tea is sour and salty it’s great if you like milk but wish it was more like yogurt.

Food is delicious.. I ordered tbe chicken plate with vegetables and they were deeeelicious. Everything was but I will say id never had veggies taste so good. So imagine everything else. Service was awesome, atmosphere relaxing. My new go to Mediterranean restaurant.

First time here. My review is only based on my single order of the Chicken Wrap. It was not flavorful like a lot of the other Mediterranean places. With this order, it really did make our decision not to order something else. From the looks of their dessert display I am not sure if the pastries were homemade or store bought. There were cheesecakes and baklava. I really did want to love this place but from this single visit I will not come back. I do wish I was floored with the chicken wrap but the chicken was very plain and lacked flavor.

This place is amazing, great food great service great price and portion will return for sure.

I was really impressed, I think Noah’s ark is one of the best middle eastern restaurants in town!! It was clean, the music was relaxing, the food was good ( it can always be better) but good so far, specially the rice. The salad was refreshing!!! I didn’t like the hummus. If you are looking for a clean family owned middle eastern restaurant, try that spot!!!

The food is delicious. The staff are very friendly. The dining area is good, with plenty of space between tables.

Decor true to the theme/name. Service was great. Came here for lunch with the bestie. We both finished everything on our plates! Really great serving portions great prices. Will return! (Tzatziki, spicy chicken salad, and spicy chicken wrap. )

The best Mediterranean food we've had. Family run and very friendly. The restaurant is cute with a Noah's ark theme.

Today I am highly disappointed. No baklava and no chocolate cake. The two things I come for, along with an Armenian coffee. So, I'm rethinking my rating. Still a lovely restaurant.

Wow. It amazes me how Noah Ark has stayed consistent over all these years from being in a little drive -thru hut to a nice dine-in restaurant and the quality has not wavered. It's an open space and it's quiet. No music and it was dead at the time, which was around 4pm on a Friday. The young waiter was polite and professional. I'm pretty basic with Mediterranean cuisine. Appetizer is always hummus and the entree is always chicken kabab. The chicken pieces were gargantuan but not dry. Flavored and juicy how one would want it. I usually don't care for pilaf but theirs was buttery and flavorful so I dug in on it. Garlic sauce is very strong and powerful - I'm def. More of a subtle sauce gal so it was untouched. Portions were hefty which equated to lots of leftovers. Hummus was great too! The food does take a little while to come out but that's always an indicator that food is being prepared freshly upon order.

The food is decent, it's fresh. Rice slightly bland but good still. My only complaint is, every time I call for a simple order of a chicken kebab plate, the wait is ALWAYS 45 minute to one hour wait. When literally every other Mediterranean place is 10-15 minute wait for the same meal. Makes no sense. I'll be going elsewhere unless they fix that.

This place was definitely a gem. It was recommended to me by one of my coworkers by far very good food and the best service. The food was so fresh the sizes of the chicken and the portions they give are very large well worth the money. Their garlic paste is delicious And the cleanliness of the place is outstanding. It's a family run business and they definitely treat you like family when you're there the sun that's a waiter is extremely sweet and helpful with suggestions and keeping everything clean and full drinks at all times.

I ordered the chicken wrap. It was a generous portion. Very delicious & flavorful. The young man that served us was great! We loved the restaurant decor. Kudos to the designer of the restaurant. Thank you Noah's Ark !

First time trying this restaurant and it was excellent. Very nice inside with attentive service. I had the salmon with mushroom bulgar (instead of rice pilaf) and my friend had the chicken bowl. The portions were very generous. We will definitely come back next time we are in Fresno.

I ordered the chicken kebab plate and it was great. The plate comes with salad, pilaf, garlic sauce, and six large pieces of chicken. Prices are reasonable and portions are generous. Although the service is a little slow, the staff is kind and appreciative. Highly recommend Noah's Ark.

Excellent food with a very attentive waitress! Great atmosphere with a great attitude! What else can you ask for?

One word DELICIOUS!! Tasty, fresh, and savory!! Loved the Armenian beer! This is our new go to Mediterranean Restaurant. Thank you!!

Saturday night walk in at 730pm door posts they close at 8pm. A near full dining room waitress checks her watch turns us away says dining room closed at 730?

Everything I've had here has been delicious. Ive been coming here for years now. Its all fresh and the employees are always nice.

I'm a big fan of chicken kabobs and have had them at many restaurants. I've also eaten at Noah's Ark a lot. Noah's Ark has by far the best chicken kabobs and they are always excellent! The kabobs are large and always perfectly cooked meaning they are always juicy and never dry. They also come with a delicious garlic dipping sauce. If you think I'm exaggerating, give them a try. You won't be disappointed! It's also worth mentioning that the portions are huge and at a very reasonable price.

I love this restaurant!! Every time I come back to the area and want Mediterranean food this is where I want to go!! We had rack of lamb, salad and a combo of chicken and beef kabobs. Everything was fresh and delicious!! We'll be back again no doubt!

So good. Food is perfect. You feel so good after eating there. Service is great- sweetest people. Very clean.

Tucked in a strip mall, this unassuming place doesn't seem like much from the outside. But the food is worth trying. It is pretty much no-nonsense Mediterranean food. I went there with my family and we ordered lulu kabob, shish kabob and beef kabob. It was all delicious and well cooked. It wasn't particularly cheap, but the portions were pretty big.

Great little Armenian restaurant with a Noah's Ark theme. The decor inside is beautiful, clean, and well thought out. It gives you the feeling of being inside the Ark with wood paneling on the ceiling and walls. We tried the #2 kebab combo with an extra skewer of chicken. The beef kebabs were excellent, seasoned well and came out tender. The rice is a deliciously fluffy buttery basmati style pilaf with garlic sauce, salad, and pita. Our waitress Marietta was very helpful and informed us that they also do family style catering for large parties. Inquire within for more information. Will definitely come back to try the borscht and lamb chops.

This is my go to place when I am at work! The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the food is amazingly fresh and delicious. I've even sat inside where it has a beautiful ambience to it. I love the vibes and it's so calming and you're able to just enjoy your food and the staff does very well at checking up on you and making sure everything is OK.

Food was amazing . Fresh and delicious! We used DoorDash to get it at home. There was an item that we ordered that was not available... they called me and we got a great substitution! Tasty!!

So great. Spicy chicken wrap was yummy. Cute and cozy atmosphere and great service. They serve Armenian wine. I tried their dry white and it was nice. I will definitely be back.

Family owned restaurants. The staff is very professional and always go out of their way to great you. Their food is always prepared in a timely manner yet not rushed to give it the utmost flavor.

Ok so this was my first time coming to this restaurant, now the service was good and the lady that helped me was very polite and greeted me as soon I as I walked in. However I was craving something sweet and got two cheese cake slices and a Turismo The cheese cake was hard and tasted stale so I was very disappointed at that, but the Turismo was good thankfully Hopefully I'll have a better experience next time, don't want to rate food on just that one fault ‍

Probably the best food in all Fresno. I got the beef, chicken, and lamb and it was all cooked perfectly and seasoned very well. The server was very attentive, always checking in and providing great service. The tiramisu was great, the chocolate cake is good, and the baklava is great too. The setting is very nice and clean. You really can't ask for more.

5 stars for the food. It was SO GOOD. Perfect cooked, all tasted fresh. 5 for the service. The people were so kind and welcoming, even with a wild 2 year old in tow (they brought him crayons and food a little earlier so he was happy). 3 for the space. We we went in, most of the tables were dirty and it was mid summer and they don't have a running AC it seems. They have a mobile unit in the corner. So we were a bit hot. Overall I would go back and recommend because the food was THAT good.

The food was amazing, I never ate lamb before but it was delicious, The service was excellent I would highly recommend this place

This is one of my favorite must pick up food when I'm working in Fresno. The chicken meatball soup is so fresh, hint of lemon and reminds me of home when I'm on the road. I also order the beef lulu plate with rice and salad. The tiramisu is the best part of my meal. They don't make it everyday so you'll have to call first. The gal who works at the counter is so sweet. I love this family owned and run restaurant. Clean restaurant, clean restroom, great customer service, delicious & fresh food! Definitely recommend and will return!

Delicious Beef Lula Noah's Wrap made from kebab shaped patty inside pita bread. Served with delicious white garlic sauce on the side. No ingredients details on menu. So if you don't like something such as bell peppers, ask. Spacious dining room and waiting areas. Animal theme throughout restaurant.

I have been going to this restaurant for a while. However, I will be finding a new Mediterranean type restaurant to go to. Every time we go, they are out of Baklava. When we first went, we were told we get a second garlic sauce if we need one at no charge. Well, when we ask for it, they say they are out! The last time we were there, it was 25 min to closing, we were almost finished eating and we asked for some more garlic sauce. They said they were out, again! At 8:00 sharp the owners, the husband and wife walked out and started closing the curtains and turning off the thermostat. We were almost finished, but not quite. They didn't say a word. Not hi, or I hope your meal was good, etc. Closing time is 8:00. Normally that means closed to customers. We figured out, it wasn't that they didn't have garlic sauce, they didn't want to get it out, since they had put it away. They were actually rude. They left their son to close up. They were not friendly at all. We felt like they were put out because we were still there. We got there an hour before closing. We won't be back any time soon, if at all. They are always "out" of items from the menu. Sad. The food is very good. Not only that, when you order to go, you don't get near the food like when you dine in. Not right. Barely any salad and rice. Sad.

I absolutely adore this place and I'm happy we decided to come here for dinner! It's in a shopping center I don't frequent often BUT I will come back just for Noah's Ark. The woman who served us was so authentically friendly and lovely, she answered all of our questions and made our experience that much better. We ordered the Armenian salad, Noah's choice 2, and the beef shawarma plate. Everything was delicious and so filling. We ended up taking some of our plates to go because the portions were plentiful. We also got some desserts to bring home as well which were also yummy. Inside the restaurant is very pleasant for evening time--the music is calm and not too packed. I enjoyed looking at all the decor. The only thing that was a little bothersome was the lights on the cameras kept coming on and off above us but not that big of a deal.

So if you have not tried this place you are seriously missing out. Had the chicken wrap. Came with a garlic sauce that was mouth watering. Also had combo number 2. Was enough yummy food to feed both of us and take home lunch for tomorrow. Service was impeccable. On top of everything the entire meal. Have a new local favorite for Mediterranean cuisine.

First off I've eaten at this restaurant over 50 times and every time the food is fabulous portions are large. The meat is tender. It's hard to find anything bad with this place. They've even stepped up the quality of the service the LAMBSHISH was absolutely cooked the perfection and delicious, tender, succulent pieces of meat. The other members of the group order the combination plates. There were so much food on the plates that they had to go containers. The other people ordered the wraps which were over the top. They were so filled that the food was falling out of the bottom. There's nothing bad to say about this place. You won't quality food you want to eat good meat this is the place to come

Amazing food, the chicken plate is amazing, the rice is fluffy and the people are super nice, the price is not too bad, and it is a very relaxing place!

The food was incredible at this awesome hole in the wall! SO yummy and a great price for how much food you're served. What really did it, was the personability of the workers (local and family owned at its finest)! They were so friendly and accommodating with my crazy toddler and turned a night that could have been very stressful into a fun experience for her so us adults could eat in peace. I recommend ×100000

Second visit on 7/2/24: I have to say the person making the food today did it without love. Maybe he didn't want to be at work as it appears he might have been in his workout clothes or pajamas. My lettuce was very wilted the few pieces I saw. I hope I didn't eat any bad lettuce. The customer service is still very good from the waitress.

The food was incredible. I got the chicken kabob plate. The chicken was juicy and perfectly seasoned and the rice was fluffy and flavorful. I also loved the garlic sauce and salad. The customer service was also great. I will be returning!

Food is amazing and the service is amazing!!! Cozy litte place to relax while waiting for the food!!

We came here for our weekly date night this week after wanting to try out Noah's for a while. We walked in and were transformed from a random strip mall into a warm and comforting family environment. The menu immediately sounded wonderful and we chose the falafel side, I had the salmon plate, and my husband had the Noah #2 (which was a combo of lamb, chicken, and beef). The falafel was fantastic- not too dry and very flavorful. The salmon plate was fantastic. You had a huge serving of tasty salmon, rice, and salad. I was not a huge fan of the salad dressing but that was not my priority. The rice was pretty good, I think for me I would have liked the option of choosing bulgar rather than it being a pricy side (about 9 dollars for a bowl). My husband enjoyed his meal and it was a lot of food- both of us definitely had left overs. Overall Noah's was a great experience and the food was tasty. We will definitely be back!

We stumbled upon this place on a work visit to Fresno. We enjoyed our lunch. I tried the lentil soup which tasted very homemade. We tried the steak and chicken dish with the rice and Armenian salad. The dishes are appropriately priced since you're getting a lot of food, big portions. Service was good. I would recommend this spot for good Mediterranean food.

Went in on a Thurs morning specifically for pastries and was told they had not made any that day. Went in another day and all they had was cheesecake, baklava, and (I think!) tiramisu. I tried the baklava, which seemed average to me, though I'm not an expert. Can't comment on the food, as I didn't try it. Felt slightly disappointed that they didn't have more pastry selection as I'd heard it recommended as a good place for pastries.

Great service and amazing food! My party had made a reservation for all 6 of us to be there at 5 for our Galentine's dinner, and despite having made that reservation, most of us were fashionably late. Regardless of the time we showed up, though, they still seated and served us with the utmost care. There was a single waitress for the restaurant, but it wasn't very busy and it's a small location so it is easier to keep track of customers. The walls and decor of the restaurant are decorated in "Noah's ark" theme, making the inside feel like the interior of an ark with classic ark "windows" as well. It was a nice touch. The drinks are served in a glass goblet or smaller wine glass with stem, not sure the name exactly, but it's cute. The cups held quite a bit of water, but the waitress never met it run empty. The food portions are quite large, and I ended up having to take half my salad to go. The food was so delicious, we all couldn't stop talking about how good everything was. The grilled chicken with the creamy garlic sauce is divine. Top tier combination. The prices are also something to rave about. Everything is priced decently, especially for the portion sizes you get. For dessert, half of us opted for cake while the other half opted for Baklava. I got the Baklava, and it was perfect. Perfect crispness with every bite and packed full of flavor. If you love Mediterranean food or want to try it for the first time, I couldn't recommend Noah's ark restaurant more. It's totally worth the visit!

Delicious. A lot bigger than I thought. Could only finish about half. Will definitely be back!

Food, service, atmosphere, it's all great. Highly recommended. Yelp wants me to say more but I think I already said it all.

I enjoyed a great lunch here with my friends. Food and service are both excellent. Look forward to coming again.

Noah's is a great place to stop for that Mediterranean fix. Reasonable in price, very good food, family atmosphere, and friendly service.

Excellent service Excellent food Huge portions Super clean Didn't have any of their desserts but they looked delicious.

I'm appalled that some horrible racist targeted this wonderful business. Just want to add that we will frequent it more and my family also goes here now and it's everyone's favorite now. Everything is consistently delicious!

This place is delicious! Ive tried the chicken wrap & chicken kebab plate. Both entrees are so flavorful. I love the portions they give, one plate can feed 2 people. The chicken is always tender and juicy. Great service with Great food is what you'll get here. I've been a customer for quite some time and never been disappointed. Check this place out if your craving mediterranean food :)

Noah's Ark is a gem of a Mediterranean restaurant! It has to be one of the best kept secrets in Fresno. The food is that good and reasonably priced. The restaurant is only open Mon-Thurs and closes at 7:30pm. If you like Mediterranean food and haven't already tried this place -- make it a point of having lunch or dinner at the restaurant soon. You will not be disappointed!
