Poor experience and food prep quality Augratin potatoes had absolutely no taste. Ordered a blackened steak I guess the chef thought blackened seasoning meant burn it on both sides NO SEASONING and mushrooms with it were both cold. Others in our group said they were never coming back and neither will iWheelchair accessibility: Could not make it upstairs to dining room with 2 handicapped persons in our group so had to sit in bar areaExtremely noisy

The best prime rib I have ever had. The steak was cooked to perfection. Nestled in Au jus sauce with optional mushrooms and onions on top. The plate of mashed potatoes then put in the Au jus sauce. Even the tap water in Devils Lake is amazing! Highly recommended The Ranch Steak House.

Though it is a little pricey, it is definitely worth it. We started with the popovers (something many know as Yorkshire pudding), which were done perfectly. My ribeye was perfect. The burgundy mushrooms were very flavorful as well as the au gratin potatoes. We finished with the truffle cheesecake. My only disappointment was the jagger schnitzel. This is something I truly loved while living in Germany, and it was something I was looking forward to while visiting The Ranch. Unfortunately, it wasn't anything like what we had in Germany. It should just be called schnitzel as it doesn't have a mushroom gravy that was customary in our area of Germany. Otherwise, the Ranch is outstanding.

Always a good meal. I have had prime rib and it is very good but a little high priced for the type of restaurant it is but everything else is priced perfect. Delicious apps and decent drinks. Costa a little more but you get what you pay for.

My boyfriend and I went here for our date. The food was really good. I ordered the 10oz Sirloin with mushrooms and onions on top. It came with a salad and fries. I was not able to finish the fries due to the amount of food. My boyfriend got the Pot Roast with mushrooms and onions on top. It came with a salad and fries. He was not able to finish his fries as well. We both shared an order of BBQ Wings. He had a beer and I had a sherly temple.Parking: A couple vehicles were taking up 4 spots(parking in the middle). The rows weren't even which I don't expect it to be.

My friends and I stopped here on our hunting trip. We got the steak, pasta, and pan fried walleye.The steak was not worth the $35 price range, pasta was also not the best either, and the pan fried walleye was also nothing special nor worth the price.We ordered two appetizers prior to our dinner which was forgot about. Then when we asked about them they only got us one with the second being forgot about a second time.Also ordered a old fashion which tasted like water.The place was also not busy as well to reflect some of our order being forgotten.All in all we won’t go back and the selection of food was not the greatest nor was the selection the best.I would recommend to spend your money somewhere else in the community as there is better food around for a better price.

We showed up with a party of 6 and was told it would be 20 minutes and we could wait down stairs in the bar. We had 5 adults and a minor. We went down stairs and ordered a drink and the minor had a root beer. After we ordered and were sitting and patiently waiting, a waitress told us that my nephew couldn't be in the bar even though he was having root beer. She said he could wait on the stairs. About 5 minutes later the owner told him he couldn't be there. Didn't talk to his parent but to my nephew directly. It's was a very low class move. We've been going to the ranch since 1996. We won't be back.

This place has been going since 40s, Joel Elvrum (owner) is keeping the tradition going and has in my opinion even stepped it up a notch!! He now has a nice selection of wines to enhance your dining experience along with a nice selection of tap beers and infused vodkas in their entry level . You can dine on two different levels and room enough to bring large parties to join youHe and his most friendly staff will accommodate you however you please. Goose Hunters, Fishmen, and friends and family will enjoy this renowned establishment. Keep up the Great Tradition. My kudos to all . Having been in the restaurant business for over 45 years I found this to excel! 5 ⭐✨Parking: Has plenty of room and needs it as the Ranch keeps packing them in!
This place is great! Best restaurant in town.
