Think of a hearty American meal and you’ll likely think of a juicy, fresh-cut steak. Whether you like it well-done or so rare it’s almost still mooing, one thing is for sure: $5 half-pound sirloin steaks (cooked the way you like ‘em, cowboy) at Ironwood Café are a sure crowd (and wallet) pleaser. Served with fresh-cut fries, it’s a complete dinner for the cost of a kid’s fast food meal.  Just stop in on Monday and ask for the steak special!
