The thing about being too tired to cook is that you’re often too tired to drive, too. And while the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali, with its versatile four-wheel drive and outstanding fuel economy, can go just about anywhere and keep going, you might need an occasional rest from driving… even though your car doesn’t! So put your feet up, relax, and order some great delivery food from one of our five favorite restaurants in Tulare, CA.

1. Flying Taco

If you’re in the mood for tacos, we have two words for you: Flying Taco. This authentic taste of Mexico is conjured using only the freshest ingredients sourced from local farmers’ markets. The tacos–with your choice of chicken, al pastor, carnitas, shrimp, Asada, or barbacoa–are a must-have, of course, but Flying Taco makes a truly epic burrito as well.

2. Don Chepe

If you’re feeling a bit more adventurous, Don Chepe is an excellent eatery to experience something a little different. Try the birriamen (tangy ramen noodle soup with smoky barbacoa) for an inspired Mexican-Japanese fusion dish, or indulge your seafood cravings with Don Chepe’s exquisite take on the traditional Mexican seven-fish stew, caldo de siete mares. The menu here is enormous, so there really is something for everyone to enjoy.

3. Mikey V’s Cafe

For the best chile verde in town, order from Mikey V’s. This family-owned foodery, run by married couple Mike and Sofia, specializes in serving up the most flavorful traditional Mexican stews we’ve ever tasted. You’ll want to know their secret recipe… but they’ll never tell!

4. Drunk Donkey Bar & Grill

The Drunk Donkey is another family-run establishment, but its specialty is burritos. The Romo family who owns the restaurant aren’t just burrito cooks; they’re burrito artists. Be sure to order their Burro Borracho, named for its secret ingredient, the Romos’ signature Salsa Borracha, and–if you’re really hungry–a side order of Drunk Donkey fries, topped with carne asada, mozzarella cheese, pico de gallo, sour cream, and (in our opinion) the county’s finest guac.

5. Fugazzis

The last (but not least!) restaurant on our list is Fugazzis, the go-to pizza place for many in Tulare. Fugazzis is a small chain of Italian fine dining eateries with five other locations in California’s Central Valley, but each bistro has a slightly different menu and specials list, which gives it a local feel. Fugazzis’ ever-popular gourmet pizzas are to die for, but their pasta dishes and signature steaks are not to be ignored!


We all need a break from driving every now and then, and when you’re too busy or tired to cook, having dinner delivered to your door is a welcome option after a long day. But if getting behind the wheel often feels like a chore, you’re in the wrong car! Visit Stone Chevrolet Buick GMC to rediscover the joy of driving today.
