The restaurant is in the historic Hotel El Paisano and is named after James Dean's character in the film Giant. The cast stayed at this hotel during filming. The signature is pistachio-crusted fried steak topped with Mexican chile gravy and served with mashed potatoes, in very generous portions. Other dishes include fried artichoke hearts and bacon-wrapped chile shrimp. The dining area connects to the bar and can be noisy when busy, and you can also sit in the hotel's fountain courtyard. Reviews are mixed, but it is valued for its historic atmosphere and evening service. It is downtown on N Highland Ave, within walking distance.
