6. Jocko's Restaurant

NIPOMO.   Since back in the 1950s, this quintessential California roadhouse has been serving barbecued meat with that distinctive Santa Maria flavor. Jocko's is known far and wide for savory oak-pit pork chops, which, rumor has it, go surprisingly well with a number of Santa Barbara County wines. Accompanying the main dishes is a bevy of tasty sides, like home fries and pinquito beans. Speaking of flavor, the restaurant's interior boasts a little of its own, with knotty pine paneling, the occasional cinder block, and rustic tables thrown in for good measure.   (© 10Best)

One of the best steak houses on the Central Coast. Locally popular - I think dinner only. Long lines, very noisy - but worth the wait [not for a romantic dinner for two].. Wait staff has fun. I recommend the sweetbreads if you like that. If you are a steak fan this is the place.

Always excellent, sometimes long wait, if you are in a rush, call ahead for takeout. A full meal when you order takeout.

Big portions but not big prices. Totally recommend the pork chops, ribs and enough the crab legs.
