From our beginnings in the Central Valley, The Painted Table’s sumptuous cuisine and elevated service grew out of family connections. We have enjoyed being located within the heart of Fresno’s Tower District for over a decade. And now, we’re taking our family to a new home, bringing our high standards of award-winning cuisine and service to a new location!
We’re moving into the finest of all banquet venues in the Central Valley—Tornino’s Banquets, located at 5080 North Blackstone Avenue in Fresno.

Here at The Painted Table, we’re proud of our local roots. For over a decade, chefs Rodney and Jeromie Hansen and our talented staff showcased the very best foods grown and produced right here in the Central Valley, creating one-of-a-kind culinary creations to fulfill your delectable dreams. We’re honored that you’ve turned to us to help celebrate your favorite times. Now, we’re giving back to our dear community by providing meals to Creek Fire evacuees, first responders, and firefighters.
We can’t do this on our own. We still need volunteers. Join us as we actively prepare and deliver meals to evacuation centers across the Central Valley for The Red Cross. Call (559) 443-7199 to sign up and learn more.
We couldn't accomplish this feat without the numerous partnerships, donations, and volunteers throughout our community:
Our goal is to support our community in need in the only way we know how—To offer delicious meals to look forward to. We’re not just filling stomachs. We are acutely aware that we are serving flavorful meals to brighten some mighty difficult days. That’s why we put the same care and attention into the meals we are creating for our local emergency personnel and evacuees as we serve to our catering clients.
John Maylone, a Creek Fire evacuee, warmed our hearts with his kind comment:
“The uncertainties, the stress, the high drama, all faded away at dinner time. Every evening, we looked forward to the unique, elegant and tasty surprises offered to us by the Red Cross. Every meal was a pleasant surprise, and we were never disappointed. In fact, we were astounded by how great the meals were…Thank you and the Red Cross for helping us through these difficult times. My wife and I will never forget your kindness and support.”
The closeness of our Central Valley community makes us so thankful to be your neighbors. Please help us to continue to deliver delectably wholesome meals to those working on the front lines and those most affected by the fires. Call us at (559) 443-7199.

We’re going the extra mile to cover our smiles, just for the time being. We’re washing our hands every 20 minutes for 20 seconds, we’re sanitizing and disinfecting frequently-touched surfaces, and we’re doing the 6+ feet of social distancing thing as we artfully bow and wave hands to greet you, instead of shaking your hand. All the while, we are donning smiles behind our masks. You can see it in our eyes!
We're supplying our valued vendors with PPE kits.
That's right. We want to be certain that everyone we partner & collaborate with remains safe.
