I used to live nearby, back in the early 80's. Not sure I ever dined here though. I learned the…read moreresort is a more casual version of the higher end restaurant. I was seated in the bar area (no choice offered), which was odd as this was mid-week and the place was far from crowded. I was attended quickly and placed an order for a Tanqueray martini. It arrived well mixed. I decided on a porterhouse after confirming with my waiter that the filet would not resemble a t-bone, but be a full filet as a porterhouse should. The steak was cooked properly, salad and sides fresh and delicious. I took off a star because my waiter gave up on me. He had checked in several times (I eat really slow these days and it was a lot of food) and the last time offered to bring me a box. I was ready to order dessert, but after a full ten minutes of an invisible waiter, I went to the hostess and offered to pay. She said she would send my waiter to my table. So, back to my table I went and waited some more. By the time he arrived, I was very unhappy. I had planned on coffee and dessert. But ended up going to the gas station next door and picking up some canned espresso and cream. Walking to my car, was an olfactory assault. If you've ever driven past Harris Ranch and the miles of cows standing under the shade structures in their own feces, you have a mild sense of what I experienced. But this was so much worse. My eyes began to water as I imagined I was walking through the feed lots. The stench of urine and cow crap was obnoxious. Some way to end an otherwise good meal. Between the service and the outdoor aroma, I doubt I'll return.

We had read that they accommodated a lot of RVs and people with U-Haul's, etc., so felt safe staying there for the night. Checked in about 9 PM. Everybody was super helpful. We have our cats with us so we were a little stressed out about how it was going to be, but they made sure that we were comfortable and we were in a really nice, large and clean room. I did think that the property is a little bit dated. They've done a good job with upkeep. The only issue I really had was that when I got out of my car there was a very strong animal smell. I asked at the front desk with that smell was, and they said that it was fertilizer that they applied to the fields that night. It was intense. We got up and we're back on the road by 5 AM. Unfortunately we did not get to try the restaurant although I heard that their steakhouse is excellent. Also, the pool looked really beautiful and clean.

The Ranch Kitchen at Harris Ranch is a solid stop if you're traveling through the area. The food…read morewas good, the portions were satisfying, and the whole place has a laid-back ranch atmosphere that fits the location perfectly. One of the coolest parts was seeing meats being smoked outside. It adds to the experience and lets you know they're serious about their meat. If you're passing through and aren't staying at the resort, it's definitely worth pulling off the freeway for a meal. It's a nice pit stop with good food, welcoming service, and authentic ranch-style vibes.

Restaurant Review:…read more Service is not great. It took us about 15 mins to get water from another person (not our waitress) and a total of 20 mins to get our order taken. We were not in a hurry but our section we saw others seated after in a different section and they got their food more smoothly. The section had larger tables but more communication from the person handling our table would have gone a long wait. From the point being seated, it took an hour to get our meal. We got no dinners rolls and our soup came with our meal. At the point of ordering we asked if the soup could be up-charged from cup to bowl and we were told yes. They instead charge us full price of a bowl instead of it being an up-charge (4 dollars vs 10). This should have been upfront and communicated. Disappointing experience and lot of the staffers were just chit chatting by the coffee station. Food for two adults and kids over 100 dollars was not worth it. We will not be returning. This is not the first time this experience has happened.

I called about 20 minutes before we arrived and was able to skip the ordering line and go straight to the cashier. Our food was ready in less than 5 minutes. Definitely a good tip if you're stopping here. We each got a half-pound of brisket with mac and cheese for $18.99. The brisket was okay, but honestly, I expected more from Harris. I actually prefer Armadillo Willy's. Remember to ask for BBQ sauce as they don't give it to you automatically. The mac and cheese was worse than the blue box kind It tasted more like survival food. But the other sides didn't look very good either, and I need some kind of carb with my meat, so I guess you pick your poison. The biggest issue for us was the heat. It was like sitting in an oven. Even with the shade and misters going, it was still so hot that we only managed about eight bites before calling it quits. For about $20 a person, it's not a bad deal for brisket, especially from a gas station. But would I stop here again? Probably not. I just want to be able to enjoy my lunch without being slow-cooked too.

It's pretty small with maybe 10 or so seats and some little cultural decorations. The guy at the counter is nice and walks you through the what you're ordering. They have a pretty wide menu and we got the pollo supreme burrito which comes with rice, beans, onions, sour cream, and cheese. The chicken is a chipotle chicken that is tender and flavorful. They toast the tortilla which gives it some depth of flavor. We got it spicy which gives it some but not a lot of heat. Overall, a great spot to get some food on a long ride between NorCal and SoCal.

He answered all our questions & had great recommendations. As I've already said, this was one of the best steaks I've ever eaten. Every bite of the filet mignon was delicious & I got it with the scalloped potatoes to accompany. My boyfriend got the prime rib & loaded potato. He loved it. At the end they brought me out a piece of chocolate mousse cake which was amazing. I made my boyfriend sing happy birthday to me. This place is so completely adorable.
