Another great restaurant in the middle of nowhere:

Johnny McNally's Fairview Lodge, Riverkern, CA
Home of the 40 oz. porterhouse and the 24-oz filet mignon, cut from flavorful butter-tender local beef....that will make that piece of meat you paid big a$$ dollars at Ruth Chris's or even Morton's or Peter Luger seem like 2nd rate shoe leather. Sure, the place is rural cafe casual... But you are not here for overpriced "atmosphere" and snooty waiters but good food...especially the MEAT. (although local rainbow trout is darn fine too!)
