The Branding Iron

Months later, still two stars. Every time I think of going back I remember the waitresses who act as though waiting tables is something they do only in their spare time and which they don't really have time for, and I also remember the raucous, ear-splitting local yuppies. Just won't risk another really unpleasant experience. Even if someone else were paying I'd try to suggest someplace else. Sorry Branding Iron, you have literally driven me away and you've done so so well that my sentiment apparently isn't going to change.

This place was decent.  The food was OK.  Nothing to write home about.  Lawry's still has the best prime rib so far.  Great for the Merced area.

Food took awhile to get to the table but it was well worth the wait. Started up with some fabulous BBQ skewers that just played with your taste buds. Ordered an amazing prime rib and half rack of ribs for my daughter. Baked potato with all the fixins was delicious.
I would only recommend faster refills or bigger glasses for people who only want water. I will definitely go again.
