Arrived for supper at 7 on a Saturday evening. Restaurant was packed. Prompt and attentive service - anticipating our every need. I had pork chops. Tender, moist, delicious. Rice pudding for desert was just like I remember Mom made it.

We had a birthday dinner here. They were very helpful and attentive. Our appetizer was mixed up and 1 meal came out late though. Other than that a great evening!!

Ordered a 16 oz T-Bone (34.95), it turned out to be 1/4 inch to 1/2 an inch thick (honestly looked like a sale steak from a discount grocery) and over cooked. I spoke to the manager, he explained that was the correct weight and it was the best he could do, he said he would take it off the bill then asked what what I would like instead. The second steak (NY Strip) was well cooked and 2 inches thick and not bad - it took 15 to 20 mins to arrive. By this time my guest had finished eating and I ate alone while they watched. At the end of the meal when the bill arrived I was a little shocked to find the second steak on the bill at full price - no discounts given for my experience. Overall I will stick to restaurants that believe when you spend 40 dollars on a steak the service should be above average and the steak something that you can't buy at a discount grocery

We went there for a steak. They had a great selection of steaks; cuts, sizes, flavours. I had the teriyaki New York. It was delicious! The plate size was huge, the waitress was wonderful. They even gave me a side of Yorkshire pudding! I was so excited! Definitely going back for steak.

The one star on this review applies solely to the server we had on our outing at the Ranch House last night. I arrived shortly after 4:30 p.m., and there was not a single vehicle in the parking lot. This should have been my first clue. The server was attentive enough, and the drinks were cold. Beyond that, I was sorely disappointed. I opted for the Chicken Cordon Bleu, as it's not a dish I regularly make at home. It was bedded on a tablespoon of mushroom sauce (with literally 3 shriveled dry mushroom slices in it), overcooked, and quite hard to cut into. There was no cheese left to be found within the main course, as normally prepared. The chicken was accompanied by a handful of severely freezer burnt green and yellow beans, and baby carrots. The stuffed potato, once you broke through the crust, was the only edible item on the plate. Needless to say, I sent my meal back, after maybe 3 bites of trying to find the cheesey goodness I sought in the main dish, which never did appear. My other half, ordered the New York Strip, and splurged to add the Neptune to his meal. To this point, I'm still not sure what he received for meat, as it appeared to be boiled, leaving a filmy, murky, grey liquid to flood his plate. His "steak" was also accompanied by the same array of freezer burnt vegetables. Let me tell you, this guy never complains. He eats everything. So you can imagine my shock when he threw in the towel on this meal. Our collective bill neared $70.00. When we approached the front to see what the outcome of the damage would be, after only consuming the starter soup and salad, and a few bite of each dish, we were, for lack of a better word, "attacked" by a woman, who raised her voice at us, and rudely said " Nothing was wrong with your meal! There was butter, and cheese, and nothing was wrong! So you pay for it!" I said "Well yes, something was wrong, and also the vegetables were freezer burnt". To which she replied "Those just come in this morning! You pay for everything!" The server, bless her heart, looked to this woman and asked if she could comp our drinks. To which this woman replied "NO! NOTHING! THEY PAY FOR EVERYTHING." Then she waved her hands in our faces and disappeared into the kitchen. Clearly, we will not return. And I will be sure to pass this unfortunate story onto others. Save your money. You'll receive better food at the adjacent McDonalds, I'm sure of it. Not to mention a little more respect from management. And to our server, thanks for trying, and best of luck to you.
