It's been seven years since I last visited San Angelo, so please excuse me if the comments are at all dated (on the other hand, change comes slowly to West Texas :).  It was/is something of a holy war, but the "other" good steakhouse in town -- and better, in my opinion -- was/is Twin Mountain (for those familiar with the terrain the play on words should be obvious).  To this date, the best cut of meat I've *ever* had was "scraps" at Twin Mountain -- filets of tenderloin, grilled to perfection;  the rest of the food was quite ordinary

I also recall a casual Mexican place called Rosa's, close to the mall;  I've been told by a friend of mine whose family still lives there that Rosa's was still there as of a couple of years ago.
