Why go

A big Western dinner at a fair price

Cattlemens is a small California steakhouse chain that started in 1968, and the family behind it began as Arizona ranchers in 1937, according to KTVU and the Daily Republic.

The Redding restaurant is #2 of 280 Redding restaurants on Tripadvisor (4.1 from 560 reviews) and 4.4 on Google from 2,675 reviews. Diners like the value of the included fixings; some report uneven steak doneness.

Every entrée comes with the fixings, so even the small sirloin makes a full dinner. Kids have their own Buckaroo menu.
