Most of you know that we have a little cabin up above Sonora, so we drive up that way every couple of weeks--it's also the main road to Yosemite from the Bay Area. And we have been eating at Garcia's between Ripon and Escalon pretty regularly now. It's far and above our favorite along this road. If you need help finding it, it's behind the convenience store right where French Camp Road meets Highway 120/108.

Great home-cooked Mexican food, with amazing prices and really friendly people. We always stop here if it's open...and then grab some fruit from the nice kids at the produce stand at Wagner Road just a hundred yards later, for $0.90 a pound. A perfect lunch on the road...and the nicest people you'll ever meet.

Thanks for sharing the info, will check it out in 2 weeks.

I usually stop by at the Mexican place next to Raley's in oakdale and Nature's Country Corner in Manteca for fruits. Is the product stand on the Wagner Rd on the north or south of 120?

Thanks, that's a good point. Will check out the mexican joint for sure

It's on the south side...but in two weeks they'll be closed--they only sell what they actually grow...and the season is winding down.

Thanks. I drove by last Sunday on my way back to bay area. It's at a convenient location. Unfortunately, they close on Sunday and also in the afternoon, so it is more of a lunch place for travelers. Maybe next time.
