Central Valley Restaurant Reviews
Fast-food places and chain restaurants dominate valley highways, but away from the main drag, home-grown bistros and fine restaurants take advantage of the local produce and locally raised meats that are the cornerstone of California cuisine. Superb Mexican restaurants can be found here, and Chinese, Italian, Armenian, and Basque cuisines are amply represented.
