"...I'd try to eat at the Rowena Steak House,"

Yeah, that is a good one.
You can also make the short drive into San Angelo and eat at Zenter's Daughter.
They have great chicken fried steaks.

And that reminds me of the origin of chicken fried steaks:

During the days of long cattle drives, the only meat the chuck wagon cooks had was the tough, stringy longhorns they were driving.
One enterprising cook took his knife and beat the steaks until he thought they would be chewable, then coated them in flour like he did fried chicken.
Voila! Chicken fried steaks - a Texas tradition!

Well, of course, Zentner's Daughter is the ONLY steak place in Angelo.
