We had a great experience at The Ranch 1849 Restaurant! We enjoyed the breakfast buffet, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. Based on our visit, the 2.5-star overall rating seems much too low. We’re glad we gave it a chance and would happily return for breakfast!
It was a decent place with lots of food for a good price in the middle of Death Valley.
Great value, tasty food. Love the mushrooms with spinach and tomatoes. Potatoes were great! Greek yogurt with macerated berries!

The Ranch 1849 Restaurant offers a buffet with a variety of options, including a salad bar with greens and toppings, warm food sections featuring BBQ chicken, carved turkey, and salmon, as well as hotdogs and hamburgers. Vegan and vegetarian options are also available, such as tofu curry and cheesy broccoli. The buffet changes daily and is available for $25 all-you-can-eat. Recent visitors found the lunch buffet to be decent with limited options but tasty, including tomato soup, lasagna, and dessert. Some guests were surprised by the quality despite the restaurant's remote location, and the prices were reasonable at around $23 per person. Breakfast options are considered great and worth trying, while dinner offers a standard mid-tier buffet. The staff is described as very nice, and it’s recommended to go right at opening hour to enjoy the freshest food, as items may not be replaced throughout the day.
