Crema's Take

This downtown Fresno spot serves up generous, house-made Italian pasta dishes in a warm atmosphere where regulars clearly feel at home—the kind of place where staff know your name and you're already planning your next visit. The generous portions and fresh-tasting pasta at fair prices make it easy to linger over lunch or coffee with friends, though fair warning: they don't hold back on the spice. It's the sort of neighborhood gem that rewards you for wandering off the beaten path.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.
