Still pretty good alright after all of these years! For solid diner food in this part of town, you can't go too wrong. I usually order huevos rancheros, as it's usually "brunch" when I'm here, and sometimes I'm not feeling at the top of my game... Chicken fried steak and the biscuits are great. My dining companion is right in his assessment that this place is "just OK." It's not gourmet, and it's not necessarily the "bestest" diner food. And for some, the pork-based green chili sauce is bland. (I'ts NOT New Mexico). But the staff are AMAZING. And it's predictable, prompt, and the outdoor patio is very, very nice (in Spring and Fall). When in the area, it's on my "will eat breakfast here once" list. read more

Four years ago my husband and I visited this restaurant, even though it was 30 miles away from where we were staying, we went, I was so impressed with the food that I gave a great review on yelp. Guess what? We went back 4 days ago and the food was exceptional, like it was 4 years,, this time I'll add how exceptional our service was.. from the moment we walked in, til we left.. we felt like a welcomed family member. My only sad part is that I didn't take a jar of their exceptional green chili verde salsa/ gravy home with me.. this restaurant is definitely going into my "notes" for our next visit. read more

This place is the best ever! I always feel welcome the the service and food is great...the chicken fried steak is the bomb!!!! It's nice to go to a local place and not to a chain. Check it out... read more

$16 for an omelette, $14 for pancakes .... average food...IHOP has better food for half the price

I love little diners like this! I come from the east coast where these are everywhere. You don't come across them too often in Scottsdale! Food was really good but it's pricey for breakfast food. I will definitely be back though! I had a basic breakfast, sub egg whites and it was $9. My boyfriend had an omelet and it was $13. read more

Ranch House Grille - Basic breakfast, sub egg whites. Heinz ketchup holds a special place in my heart - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Horrible experience. Waited 2 house she forgot to put in our order. Had to ask for coffee repeatedly. Egg white omelet had yokes, the one part I'm allergic to. Never set it back afraid I would never see food again. Are he toast. Thank you fair warning. read more

Best place ever love mom and pop like places and this is like that but Oh.. My ... Goodness.. they have an amazing green chili .. that is the best to put on everything and anything you get Lol read more

I went to this CRAPSHOOT for my roommates birthday brunch with family members. When walking into a restaurant I should never feel uncomfortable for the color of my skin and this is exactly what happened. Everyone was white. I was not. This was obvious. And even more so when EVERYONE WHO WALKED IN AFTER US (who were also white I should note) was served delicious looking meals before us. Then when simply asking for a check so we could just take the food home once it was ready and not waste more time they finally served us. The birthday girls country fried steak had no steak it was all batter, and all other food at the table was cold. This is unacceptable and I almost laughed when they offered me a voucher for a free meal because I will never step foot in this restaurant again and I will do my best to make sure others don't either. read more

Food is great, service is great. The Sunday morning wait and the seating hosts are the worst. For the past two Sundays we have been screwed over by the front seating host, who pokes her head out and in the lowest voice possible says the next person's name, and then fails to cross their name off the list. Another time, we arrived to find seating at the bar, we tell the host we are going to sit at the bar, she says let me check with the next persons on the list, and at that same time other people just go and take the bar seating. read more

This place is the epitome of down home cooking. They have the best chicken fried steak I've ever had and I have tried my fair share. They also have really good burgers and I love their fish and chips. Great spot for a filling breakfast and lunch! read more

We stopped here on a whim on the way to the airport. I am so very happy we did! We came on a Friday morning and there was actually a good amount of people inside. We were sat immediately. The waitress was the only one but she was very attentive. The menu is huge! I had a lot of trouble deciding. I ordered the corned beef hash, now this is the worst thing our table ordered. It was okay, you can tell it came from a can. I had a side of biscuit and gravy. The gravy was so good! You could've convinced me we were in the south. My boyfriend ordered the chicken and waffle. It was a ginormous portion, definitely enough to share. The chicken was tenders not whole pieces of chicken. But the tenders were good! Nice and crispy. The waffle was very fluffy, tasted nice with butter and syrup. My boyfriends brother got the country fried chicken. I was most skeptical about this dish as instead of the typical white gravy, it was served with green chili gravy. This ended up being my favorite dish! The gravy went perfectly with the crispy chicken. I will mention, every meal was a huge portion. Everything could be split. read more

I love that this restaurant is no frills, laid back old style coffee shop. The food is good, and the portions are huge. They even offer a mini menu that allows you to scale back your breakfast portion and save money that may have been wasted. The coffee is high quality for a coffee shop and the waitresses are always friendly. My favorite perk is that they listen to oldies from the 60's constantly and I never feel rushed to leave. Just wonderful experience overall. read more

Came in here with my mom. Jill was our server and she was absolutely incredible, she made the whole experience. Had the biscuits w/ gravy and I highly recommend. read more

We were contacted by owners of the restaurant and this issue we saw with a server not wearing a mask yet serving food has been resolved. We have been eating here for several years. Always happy with the food and staff, who work so hard. read more

Food never disappoints....pricing is above average & yes the food is above average. However portions are large & we have been there countless times & NEVER HAD TO SEND ANYTHING BACK! So with that said I do recommend but if your on a budget maybe once a month...... read more

First time here. It's a little place and very clean. Service was friendly and attentive. The server was on top of the coffee refills our cups never went empty. The food all came out fast and exactly as ordered. I had the Huevos Rancheros.... OMG was it great the green chili sauce was for sure the best I've ever had. The Rancheros comes with three eggs, rice, beans, and hash browns. Beans and rice both homemade and delicious. Portions size is giant, the price is a little more, but it's definitely worth it. A must try if you are looking for local home cooking!! read more

Talk about great steak and eggs. I opted for the 16oz sirloin, med. rare and was not disappointed. We told Jill, our server that it was our first visit. She promptly brought out a sample of their award winning green chile. It was so tasty, we ordered a pint to bring home. My wife really liked it also. We drove 36 miles across the valley to try this place and will be going back that's for sure. read more

If you enjoy Philly cheese steak sandwich and if you enjoy really good customer service a decent cup of coffee and a fair price and you need to put this place on your list. Awesome read more

Out dated breakfast joint with big prices. $14.00 for Corn beef hash burnt and salty. Asked for rye toast instead got dry toast. Hotel prices in a old setting. Go to Butterfields read more

First time coming to this place and the vibe was the greatest! The girl in the front she never said hi and after a few minutes she said she will get us a table and we stand there for so long and then she comes back ohh she said your table is ready and we seat and the table was not clean and she never offer a menu , second we seat there for a while and ask for the menu and she said ooh yea so we walk out of the place! read more

Stopped here for the first time and was so pleasantly surprised. What a great spot for some really, really, good comfort food! We came for breakfast and I had the veggie omelette...YUM! It was packed full of fresh vegetables (and no cheese so it felt pretty healthy)! My husband had the Heuvos Rancheros ... YUM! I had several bites of his breakfast and have to say it was one of the best chili verde I have ever had! It came with rice and beans which were also great! Be ware however....the portions are HUGE (so bring you appetite)! Seriously, this is a great spot and I highly recommend it. Great food and great service! read more

I have visited this location twice now and am getting hooked! The first time I visited we sat outside which gives you a cool view of Camelback Mountain. I ordered some type of sandwich and also one of their famous bowls of soup. I recall the soup being amazing and we had leftovers for a second meal later. My second visit was Friday morning. I took a co-worker out after work and we both decided to try breakfast. I ordered the Pork Chili Verde (topped with cheddar, smothered in pork chili verde) and my friend ordered some meat omelet and added veggies. We also had biscuits and gravy for our sides. My food was amazing. Words cannot explain how tasty it was. The gravy for the biscuits was like crack! It was so addicting I want more just thinking about it right now. The service was good as well. I will return in the future and bring more guests. This hidden gem deserves to be discovered! read more

The Ranch House Grille is a great spot for breakfasts and lunches. I'm sure the dinner offerings are good but have not tried any. They also serve green and red chile which I love. Today I have the veggie salad with cilantro lime vinaigrette. It was served in a large tostada shell, much like a taco salad. The salad was huge and all of the ingredients were fresh and delicious. The dressing was very good and I would get it again. My friend had the berry & blue cheese salad which included strawberries and pecans ( they were out of blueberries so they just added additional strawberries) with grilled chicken. The salad was also delicious and the grilled chicken looked amazing. Our server also Offered us ice teas to go which was very nice given that it is extremely hot today. read more

Cute atmosphere. Good menu choices. However, wayyyyyy over priced. Neighbors often say they would go more often if it wasn't so expensive. The food is good but not fantastic or at least not worth $14 for a burger. Prob won't go again read more

Service was fantastic, food for delicious, and the price was affordable!! Come hungry and leave happy! I love the complimentary to go drink too!!! read more

My husband is always in search of a great chicken fried steak and he found it here! The green chili sauce is so amazing we bought a pint to take home! read more

Crepes were excellent. Big portions. Service was fantastic. Our waitress was very sweet

Visiting Phoenix and came for breakfast. Based on past reviews regarding portion sizes husband and I shared the chicken fried steak and kids got strawberry crepes with fresh sweet creme. Definitely glad we shared--they are very generous with portions! The food was fantastic. Their pork chile verde sauce is perfection and the steak was nicely breaded and tender. Children claimed it was the best breakfast ever. Wonderful coffee as well. And the service is second to none. So happy we found this gem. Will definitely be back! read more

Came here with the family before a Cubs game. All five of us enjoyed our breakfasts. We came again a 2nd day.

Stopped by to have breakfast after a short day at work went in with my husband sign said seat yourself so we did didn't see any wait staff waited a few minutes then 2 other couples came in and sat down a waitress finally came out of the back and proceeded to attend to the other 2 tables never once looking or acknowledging us. Other tables got menus and drinks we still don't have menus then a man walks in for a to go order she waits on him still not acknowledging us so we left. Never again. read more

Only the best for the Beautiful Carin...that's what I tell her constantly...that's why she chose me...that's why I take her only the best places...Like Ranch House Grille:) Surprisingly, she hadn't been to RHG with me before now, so off we went for Saturday "Lunfast" after our workout...(I was going to call it brunch, but it was Saturday and about 1:00 pm so it kind of felt like a retox lunch time thingy, but I had breakfast, so...:-) Carin was charmed by the rustic decor and the family atmosphere at RHG (these folks are from up around Page, Arizona...this is the southern outpost of the family restaurant empire:) She was more charmed by the food:) I ordered up a Chili Verde Omelet (I need to digress for minute...I've always been a red chili "snob" when it comes to chili omelets...I mean who thinks Green Pork Chili on an Omelet?...well, I do...now:-)...this is really the adult version of "Green Eggs and Ham" (BTW, RHG can steal that for their menu if they want...I don't mind:) I am astonished at how well the flavors of the rich and meaty green pork chili work with the fresh fluffy eggs in the omelet...this is what the word "sublime" was invented to describe:) Carin continued her very healthy ways with a veggie omelet made with egg whites...although I did notice that about 20% of my omelet was "missing" when I returned from a brief visit to the clean and shiny restrooms:) She said there was a commotion in the restaurant while I was gone, and when she turned back from gawking, part of my Lunfast omelet was missing...but I don't know...there were unexplained Chili Verde traces on her plate:-) She said next time we go, I can get the Chicken Fried Steak and eggs and she will get the Chili Verde Omelet...maybe she'll let me share:-) read more

I think I found my new favorite breakfast spot! Annette steered me to the Breakfast Biscuits. 2 Biscuits with Gravy topped with 2 sausage patties and sausage gravy. On top of this 3 eggs any way you want them accompanied with delightful hashbrowns. Delicious!!! We'll be back soon. read more

Huge portions, great service, clean, confortable surroundings all welcomed me today to the Ranch House Grille. I ordered the chicken fried steak with Homemade Pork Chili Verde $10. Normally I would never in a million years order this, as I have stopped ordering chicken fried steak years ago because nobody makes it right. After being talked into trying it, it arrived on my table and OMG, it is the BEST! Tender, crispy steak with a perfect Chili Verde. The breakfast also came with 2 eggs and a huge portion of hash browns. Definately recomended. read more

This spot has been previous host to Anna's Cafe (RIP), BYOBistro (RIP), Nix (RIP). But finally, I think someone put the right thing in here. A casual, daytime breakfast and lunch spot that caters to a slightly older crowd. We can literally walk here, so we hit it from time-to-time. But it doesn't have the same charm or unique menu favorites (Eggs Maximillian, Parisienne, etc) that a place like Harlow's in Tempe does. You need that to pull people from outside the hood. DECOR I would call it kitchsy country cafe, but they mean it. So it's not kitschy. It seriously looks like a midwestern diner, in 1974. No nonsense. FOOD Pretty good. Wish it were better. Good, hearty breakfast. Eggs cooked nicely, as ordered. Meats and sides prepared competently. Standard, reliable comfort food. It's straight-up midgrade foodservice stuff. Ultimately, frozen Shamrock/Sysco everything. Some things are better than others: the green chile poured over greasy fries is an excellent gutbomb. But the burgers are overcooked - maybe the meat necessitates that. Seems like a kickass burger should be a staple at a place like this. I still have some menu exploration to do, so I'll update. All in all, they seem to be doing well and serving their demographic what they want. I just wish Matt's was across the street instead. read more

This place is just down the street from my house, so we finally made our way over here to check it out, as my partner and I both love a good brunch. I don't think either of us will be back. The wait was only a couple in front of us, but took almost 25 minutes to be seated, and the way the restaurant was laid out, we had to basically stand in front of the door while waiting. Also, I had to chase down the waiter to even get on the wait list. Once seated, I opened the menu, ready to get the black bean burger I'd seen online...their only non-egg vegetarian item. I had purposely scouted the menu online before coming in, since they didn't seem super veg friendly. Yeah. Apparently, they no longer serve veggie burgers. Nope. So when I asked our server, as a vegetarian, what I could get, she told me there was some sort of dish that one of the servers made with cottage cheese, mushrooms and avocado. I had no option but to ask for that. When it came out, after a good deal of time, it was a small cup of oily mushrooms, a plate with half an avocado on it, and a small cup of cottage cheese. Um. Gross. I stole a piece of my partner's toast, mixed in ketchup with the mushrooms, and put it on the toast with a little avocado on top. It was ok, but I could have made it better myself, and for less than the almost $7 they charged me for my "meal." Add to that the homophobia and transphobia we felt, plus the coffee refill guy walking past my partner's empty cup not once, not twice, but three times, and we'll not be back. Which is too bad, because my partner love love loved her Denver omlette and hashbrowns. Folks, it takes more than good food to make a good restaurant. read more

This morning, I was on a date with 'self'. I was in between clients and had a good 2.5 hours to spare and I was starving after my 3 hour massage session. The Ranch House Grille is a homey place and the waiters are very attentive even before you are seated! This morning was no different. The waiter was so friendly, I thought he was going to ask me out, which was not an issue. Friendliness over moodiness any day! I have been about a dozen or so times with my clients to this country bit of a cafe in the Arcadia/Biltmore area. The eggs are always fresh yet the coffee isn't worth a bean ~ AND I LOVE COFFEE! I adore steak and eggs and the steak is less than moovelous ; -( SOOO, I'll try the pancakes next time. I like to stay in my neighborhood when I go out to eat, it will be worth another shot! read more

If your looking for a traditional, down home, country breakfast, then Ranch House Grille is your destination. From the moment you walk in, you are taken back to a small town eatery, where everyone would have to know each others names. Located just East of 56th Street and North of Thomas Road, Ranch House is within walking/beach cruiser distance for anyone in the Arcadia and South Scottsdale neighborhoods. From traditional favorites such as biscuits and gravy, pancakes, scrambled eggs, thick cut bacon, waffles and baked goods, Ranch House has the stick to your insides good breakfast that is much needed on a relaxing Saturday or Sunday morning. Although during the work week, they open at 6am, and you can start off a boring Tuesday with a Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs, what could be better? If you want good comfort breakfast, with no frills other than great flavors, check out the Ranch. read more

My family and I have been going to Ranch House Grille since they opened 10 years ago - btw, a huge congratulations is in order to them for making it this far!! Their food is incredible, the staff is always friendly and fast, and did I mention their Southwest Chicken Fried Steak? Do yourself the biggest favor, go order the Southwest chicken fried steak, and fall in love. I now live in Colorado but everytime I come back into town, I order that exact same dish, and it's always as delicious as I remember. Thank you Ranch house, and congrats on 10 year!!!! P.S. If you're like me and can't finish their amazingly large portions, ask for the Lite version of your order, for example my lite southwest chicken fried steak comes with less hash browns, one less egg, and half the toast (but all of the meat), for a couple bucks less. Love this option. read more

I've only been here one time, but a friend insisted I try the chicken fried steak with the green chili sauce. I'm not usually a fan of chicken fried steak, but I have to say, this was the best I ever had...I'll be back soon and I'm bringing friends from California! read more

In my suicidal quest to find a chicken fried steak equal to the one I had outside of Houston, I insisted to Hubby that we try the Ranch House Grille today, on the NE corner of Thomas and 56th street, across from the Walgreens. It's open from 6am-3pm only, and when we arrived at 2:00, there were few other customers. It's pretty homey (if home is Oklahoma) and casual, with around 15 tables inside and several outside. I ordered the CFS, and it was quite good, very tender with a white sausage gravy on top. The rest of the meal ranged from mediocre (mashed boxed taters and Texas toast) to awful (the vegetable mix that was just this side of baby food soft). Hubby had a better meal overall- an egg burrito with some truly delicious homemade pork chili verde sauce, paired with crispy but not greasy shredded hash browns. They needed some seasoning, but were nowhere near the disaster that was the biscuits. Something was just wrong with them, besides being pale and puckish- too much baking powder, maybe? I think there are some tasty gems on the menu, but you may have to wade through a few sub-par items to suss them out. read more
