Farnesi's Steakhouse

I have been here many times now. I will never go back. I live in Chowchilla and the quality of food is deplorable, from the breakfast to the appetizers, lunch and dinner. The main server is rude and easily flustered and very very rude. The one plus is sometimes the soup is good, never great but good. The owner is greatly lacking the ideals of owning a restaurant and what quality food is. Please eat at great caution and to the owner..Step up to the plate and see if you will eat it

We stopped here on our way home cause we were hungry and didnt was fast food. This place was clean and organized, but very old decore! Our server was nice and friendly. She knew the menu well. She quickly answered our questions. We both ordered a burger, one with onion rings and one with the garlic fries, cause we like to share. The food came quickly. The burgers were cooked to med rare like we asked. Which is hard to get like that, cause most places dont even ask what temp u want on a burger. The burgers were juicy and freshly made patties!! The onion rings we large and in charge. Yum!!! The garlic fries were just not good. When i order garlic fries, i expect to see some fresh garlic and parsley , tossed with some seasoning salt. NOT HERE! They were of the frozen type, with no garlic at all!!! Not good what so ever!!! We also ordered a dinner salad to share, and u could tell is was of a bagged variety. Nothing fresh about the salad at all. The dressing was out of a bottle. Nothing good or bad about the salad.

There is a fancy steakhouse dining room also, but that wasnt open. I guess its open for dinner. They also have a full service bar/lounge in the back. I did check out the dinner menu and they have some high priced steaks for dinner. I dont think i would come here for dinner, but hey, u never know!!!

Overall, this is a nice little diner to stop on a road trip.

Excellent.  5 Star for the Biscuits and Gravy.
