Rattler's has been an SCV favorite for a long time. It fell off my list of places to go after several bad experiences (with the service mostly). It's back though and delicious. I had a party catered by Rattler's earlier this year. The food was delivered on time and the portions were gigantic; I couldn't have cooked for the price of the delivered food.
Pros: Tri-Tip, Salad Bar, Burgundy Wine Coolers
Cons: It Can Get Noisy
