Top of the Heap--Crestline Steak House
Crestline Steak House is the only true steak house and among the nicest restaurants in town, so at just about any visit you'll find locals celebrating proms, birthdays and wedding anniversaries. Fortunately, Crestline does not disappoint. Great steaks, stiff cocktails and homemade ice cream (the oatmeal flavored is to die for) are served, and prices are quite reasonable compared to the big city steak houses.

Sopranos-Style Steak--De Marco's Italian Restaurant
Though most go to De Marco's Italian Restaurant for the pastas, pizzas and other Italian dishes, very good 12-ounce rib-eye and New York steaks are also on the menu. And they are less than $20 each (2010 prices).

A Delightful Side--Jerry's Restaurant
The streak dinner served at Jerry's Restaurant is fairly pedestrian. Not bad, but not special either. However, the cornbread will have you coming back for more.
