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

Generally, I am NOT a breakfast person, but I LOVE this place. Pros: Good Service, seating quickly, good time, always taken care of . They definitely do know the meaning of Customer Service! Always greeted right away, not too long of a wait, etc... Cons: my husband is not a fan of the biscuits here. He thinks that they are more like dinner rolls than biscuits. The juice leaves a weird after taste in my mouth, I don't know what that is, it's almost kind of 'soapy' The chicken fried steak is better than good! read more

If my neighbors, Joe and Craig (like you care what their names are) hadn't discussed this place in my presence, I wouldn't be here today. I ordered the huevos rancheros, and my husband ordered the steak and eggs. He loved his breakfast so much that he barely spoke. I loved my breakfast. And I mean, loved it. Out of a sense of duty, i offered the hubby a bite, and luckily, he was too busy devouring his steak and eggs, thus declining.. My huevos rancheros had perfectly cooked (over well) eggs on top of corn tortillas. On top? A delicious pork green chili that was to-die-for delish. In addition, you get rice and beans, AND hash browns! Yummy, yummy, yummy! The place is darling, very comfortable and has very nice personnel that are will to please. We've already been back, and it was just as good the second time as it was the first! This place is a winner!!! read more

In an odd situation were I had to be up all night, but had four hours to kill before a 10:00am flight, and had no desire to drive from downtown Phoenix to Desert Ridge then back south to the airport, I decided one of the best ways to kill some time was to sit down and have breakfast. Since I didn't want to spend any more money than I had to, I decided to hit up local dines (https://www.localdines.com/phoenix?ref=19485) and found a $20 for $10 gift certificate to Ranch House Grille, a breakfast spot pretty close to Sky Harbor that starts service at 6:00am. It's open. I have a coupon. Why not? The food is good for what it is. I had a Denver Omelet. The eggs were cooked well, and the fillings were fine. The hash browns were awful. The portion is massive, but bland is too kind of a word to describe the taste. There wasn't enough salt, ketchup, or hot sauce on the table to give these potatoes any flavor. I would definitely recommend subbing with any of the other sides. The coffee was good and refilled often. A large orange juice was not worth the $4.59 price. If it was fresh squeezed, it certainly didn't taste like it. If isn't, then I could've bought a gallon of Tropicana down the street at Fry's for less. Not that I was looking for anything fancy, but the restaurant is nothing special in terms of ambiance and decor. It looks a lot like an old office that's been gutted into one big room. There's some stuff hanging from the walls, but nothing all that pleasant to look at. Service was great. There was just one woman handling the handful of tables and cashiering duties. She was as pleasant and efficient as could be. She also was one of the first servers that I have ever handed a local dine certificate (https://www.localdines.com/phoenix?ref=19485) who knew exactly how it worked. The total was a little less than my local dine. I gave her a few bucks in cash for a tip and made my way to the airport. read more

Two or three times a year, when my dad comes to town, we have to go eat a chicken fried steak at the Ranch House. We heard about this place from our old roommate who is a chef, and my dad couldn't wait to go try it. Typically a healthy eater, my dad loves to splurge on something artery-clogging from time to time. I'm just glad I get to go along for the ride. The first time we went, my dad noticed a not-so-svelte man sitting at a table in front of the window. My dad looked toward him and said "Ooohh. This is gonna be GOOD!" He was right. The chicken fried steak is tender and juicy, the eggs have always been perfectly fine and the gravy is so thick and creamy I can feel it taking years off my life. Pancakes are an easy kid-pleaser, so everyone comes out full and content. I'm glad I get to go here once or twice a year and that's enough for me. read more

Driven by this place for years and it is always too busy to stop . . . today . . . not many cars, so I thought I would take a chance . . . I thought to myself before I got out of the car . . . either this place has gotten really bad . . . due the lack of cars . . . OR . . . It is my lucky day. IT WAS MY LUCKY DAY Service was great . . . my waitress recommended the meatloaf sandwich special . . . and I was skeptical . . . meatloaf with grilled onions and barbeque sauce on grilled sour dough . . . I died and went to heaven . . . Fries were hot crispy and great with the barbeque sauce that oozed out of the sandwich. Not only was this place a strong 5 stars . . . but it was a 7 napkin sandwich . . . I will definitely be back . . . read more

GF TOAST AVAILABLE. I have never been disappointed with a meal from here. The chorizo omelette is my favorite. They also have gluten free toast: Udi's and Ezekiel. The waiters and waitresses are friendly but sometimes they seem to be short staffed. We always go in on the weekends and our poor servers are scrambling around because there doesn't seem to be enough helping hands. Overall great meals!! read more

Sorry, I can never get over the "I don't care if you eat here" philosophy from the host, wait staff and anyone else who's brought my food to the table during the 6-8 x's I ate here as I'm all about supporting the 'hood'. I grew up in the business and completely understand how it operates, runs, and what service means. But come on, when a table is open and I don't have the appropriate amount of people, wait for 15 minutes, get served by someone who wished they were at home and that I would mail them a grat for doing nothing, all the while staring at that one empty table....it was the last straw. I guess I'll have to go to one of the 10 other breakfast spots within a 5 mile radius. BP read more

Ranch House Grill gets a big fat "Meh" from me. I love breakfast joints and am always looking for new places to try. When I got a Groupon for Ranch House Grill I was hoping I would find a new place to add to our rotating list of breakfast hot spots. Not so much. The boyfriend and I went there on a Sunday morning, there was a wait but nothing too long. I ordered the special - cinnamon raisin french toast, eggs and bacon. Boyfriend got a ham and cheese omelet which he did say was pretty good. My food was okay but nothing special. The french toast was kinda small and didn't have a ton of flavor. Eggs were fine, bacon was okay. There was nothing bad about the food but there just wasn't anything great about it either. At least nothing to make me want to go back. Except maybe the Savers down the street - I found some great clothes there! read more

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

This is a great mom and pop type restaurant. They have good food and good service. You walk in and it feels like home. I have ate there a few times now and have had good food every time. The hot burger is unique. The green onion burger was awesome. Nothing you can get is bad. I am trying the chicken fried steak there next! read more

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

this is a seat yourself place, you walk in, find a table and wait. Now, sometimes you'll get a nice, smart server, and other times you'll get a server who serves up attitude, and doesn't refill your lemonade and tells you that you don't get refills but that's another story. The menu is extensive, lots of different breakfast options, there's also plenty of lunch options too, and don't forget to check out the large specials board. Servings are substantial, eats are tasty, and price is fair. This is one of my rotation breakfast places after a morning hike. 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

Excellent old fashioned breakfast/lunch spot. The inside looks like a remodeled house, floors are carpets. Food is always delicious with daily specials. For lunch, try the spicy chicken wrap, delicious. Staff are very friendly and courteous. read more

My boyfriend and I went there for breakfast one weekend and were unimpressed. The parking was terrible and service just OK. I ordered the eggs benedict which had the sweetest hollandise sauce and my boyfriend said IHOPs chicken fried steak was better. The server never came back to fill up our drinks and just dropped off the check to never be seen again (pay upfront). Wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. 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

Gotta admit...I am normally an OHSO brunch fan...it is our tried and true..however these days, if you aren't there by 9 on the dot, then its a huge wait which sometimes we will endure and others, not so much. A friend suggested this place and said it was like a classic diner. It is...it reminded me of being back east and going to the diners there. I guess I just don't know about as many out here, but I didn't think they had them. It was a great choice! It is your standard diner feel with the massive delicious portions. I had the crepes with strawberries. My only issue with it was that it was the pre-macerated strawberries and they didn't look good - they came on the side so no harm done, but now I know! It came with hash and a choice of meat. Pretty awesome. Hubs and our friend got big plates and ate nearly everything and loved it! This place is really cute. 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

Service is good and friendly also. Each of us got a personal greeting when we walked in the door. We went with a 4-person lunch crew, and we ALL liked EVERYTHING we ordered. The fried fish was crispy and flaky-tender. Onion rings, we could smell the beer batter. Potato salad made in house. Pastrami and cheese sammich was a winner. Green chili burro was good, but the "red chile" bowl that came with it was even better. Portion sizes are a good value and taste is even better. If you are in the area, you should stop by and give these nice ladies some business - we need more places like this to stick around !! P.S. Corrected info. read more

My food was a five. I rate a four, the restaurant was 25% full, the service was a bit slow. This place has very good breakfast food, this is the third time I've been here. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Ranch House Grille - "Philly cheesesteak sandwich" with Homemade potato chips - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I've lived within walking distance for almost seven years but yesterday morning was my first visit to the Ranch House. I had received a $5 off coupon in the mail so I decided to check it out. I was expecting it to smell of smoke from the recent building fire next door, but there wasn't even a trace of it. (The RH was closed for about 6 months after the fire.) I found a seat by a window, sat down and was greated by the waitress. I ordered an orange juice, one egg over medium (the waitress helped me order my eggs cooked just the way I like them) with buttered toast. I substituted the hash browns for a fruit cup. Everything was great and almost free after my coupon! Next time I'll bring my Kindle to read while I dine. I might even bring Peekaboo when it cools off outside because I noticed a couple with a Great Dane sit down at a table on the outside patio. Dog friendly? It must be. read more

What a great breakfast spot right near the Zoo and the Hole in the Rock. You get sooooo much food for your money. It's all delicious. The kids breakfast comes with bacon or sausage and a huge pancake. And great coffee and Hot Chocolate too. read more

I went here for breakfast a few days ago with my mom and sister. My mom had been wanting to try it for some time. It's a nice place, very open floor plan, with Native American art pieces hanging on the wall. It's a seat your self kind of place. The food was good. They serve the usual breakfast items. Our waitress was really nice. But the service was slow. The place was about half full, so maybe that had something to do with it. I believe I just saw the one waitress going around to everyone. I liked it! I'll come back for sure! read more

Truely Satisfying! I had been intending to have breakfast here for months, and today I finally did. I was totally pleased with every aspect of my visit. The restaurant itself is inviting, and I loved the table I chose in the corner by the window. It was bright and sunny. Almost immediately after I seated myself one of the servers brought me a menu and let me know that Anne would be my server, and that she would be right with me. Anne came to my table with a smile on her face, and I ordered coffee and asked for a few minutes to study the menu. I really didn't need much time since I had studied the menu online, and so when she returned with my coffee I went ahead and ordered the Original Chicken Fried Steak and substituted a biscuit for the toast.. The coffee was actually good, not the usual afterthought that many restaurants serve. When my meal came, there was so much food that I literally didn't know where to start, so I took my time buttering my biscuit which I figured was as good a place to begin as any. Of all of the biscuits I've had in restaurants over the years, this was far and away THE BEST. It was like a really good home made biscuit, and begged to be followed by a mouth full of chicken fried steak with sausage gravy. The chicken fried steak was crisp on the outside and perfectly cooked (not dry) on the inside. The gravy was to die for and the whole dish was nicely seasoned. My eggs were cooked exactly the way I ordered them, and everything was piping hot. Every mouthful was delicious, but the portion was so large that I soon realized that I wouldn't be able to finish the meal. My decision? I didn't want to leave any of the biscuit behind, it was just too good, so I focused on that and ate almost all of it. My experience - large helpings of really delicious food, great service, and a really nice friendly environment. Next time I'll order something smaller so that I have room to try the cobbler. read more

Amazing ranch!! They make it on their own, the workers gave me a full box of it because it was so tasty!

Food and service were outstanding. We ordered pancakes and omelets. The portions were huge. More food than we could eat. Definitely will return. read more

We come just about every weekend! We know the staff and owner as if they were family! The food is amazing. And for me, my orders are always very complicated (vegan) and they just don't mind and happy to accommodate! This is the place we all like to get our sat or sun breakfast, brunch, or lunch on!! Coffee and belly's always full! Thanks guys! Craig and angel read more

Ranch House Grille - We are regulars & I'm vegan. It's embarrassingly complicated when ordering out! NOT here! Their like family. Ranch house rocks! - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

My husband and I went there about a month ago and he loved (and since craves) the green chili chicken fried steak. I had the fried fish which was great...had a few issues with the rest of my order. Main reason I chose it was for the fried okra and cole slaw. I got mashed potatoes and veggies. Apologized to the new waitress and asked for the correct sides. Got my okra which was wonderful but with cottage cheese. It was actually funny and I felt bad for the waitress (who was brand new) and felt badly but said the kitchen was confused. :-) Took a friend there for dinner about a week ago and the dinners were great-I had the regular chicken fried steak and will again! We were full but wanted to treat ourselves with peach and cherry cobbler...mmm-not much flavor, too much batter and it was ice cold. Sorry, just did not care for it. Might try it again and ask for it heated with ice cream. We like the place and will be back. read more

I cannot recommend this place enough! This is my husband's and I favorite breakfast spot. They have awesome Chile Verde and the classic American feel food that we love. Highly recommend! read more

Terrible service. Took waitress forever to take our order. Then while taking our order walks to another customer because something was wrong with his order. Then walks to bar and gives customers who just sat menus. Then spends time at the register. Finally comes back to our table and told her she was rude for not excusing herself. After taking our order she asks if we wanted another waiter and I told her NO as she has taken our orders already. Food finally arrives. My Mary Jane sandwich was alright but the hash browns had a taste that I could describe as soapy. Maybe they were frozen. The gravy was very salty. The servings were massive but will not compensate for mediocre flavor. Coupled with bad service - Not coming back. Disappointed. read more

This place is like a secret little gem I almost don't want to review because I don't want others knowing about it. ;) Amazing delicious food every time I go and being there my friend and I totally feel like we're away camping up north or something in a tiny town. Just the wholesome family home cooked food feeling. Highly recommend!!! read more

I wish it was closer to home. The best breakfast I've had in a long time. I ordered the southwest chicken fried steak. Instead of gravy they smother it in pork green chile it was delicious. My wife ordered juevos rancheros it looked great. Highly recommend. read more

Ranch House Grille - Southwest chicken fried steak. - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The server's did not know much about their menu. This place is not vegetarian friendly. I asked if the black bean burger was made on site or if i was a frozen pre-made burger and I was told it was made on site however when I got my meal it was more than obvious that the burger was just a regular veggie burger I could have easily bought at the grocery store and made at home in my own microwave. I also asked for the low-carb tortilla option and it was brought out on a bun, when I asked for a tortilla the waitress was rude and acted like it was my fault for not being more specific. When I finally got the tortilla it was not even low-carb, just a regular flour tortilla. I will never go back to this restaurant. However if you want big portions of breakfast food and are not a vegetarian you might like it. My mom got the green pork chili verde and she said it was very good as well. read more

Best chicken fried steak! I come here all the time and it it never fails to amaze. Best breakfast!

Good neighborhood restaurant with homestyle food. I particularly love the fish and chips. It's hard to get that anywhere these days. Love the giant cups of soda the give you with the crushed ice. Servers and staff are friendly (but see below). The time between ordering and getting your food is good. I would have given it 5 stars except for the fact that they need to work on the attentiveness of their servers. It's hit or miss and the servers don't always come back to check on you enough. I know it's a fine line between not enough service and too much. I think Ranch House is tipping toward the not enough side. I want to emphasize though that servers are very friendly with a great attitude. Overall, great neighborhood feel. Glad to support a local business. I'll be going back! read more

I like to try new places out every now and then. I was in search of a breakfast place and stumbled upon this hidden gem. I discovered coming in early afternoon is the best time to come by. You get seated right away and can find good parking. I had the Southwest Country Fried steak it was delicious. I love eating country fried steak and I love green chili and this plate brought the two together. We also found the place with the best and most amazing biscuits and gravy. read more

Ranch House Grille - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Very trendy place, as this was once a drive-through liquor store back in the day. I like what they've done with the place. I came in for brunch with my siblings and they weren't too busy on a Thursday at around 11am. They had a nice menu, and we sat outside, which was nicely shaded. The food took a bit longer than I had hoped to get out, and the waitress was a bit slow. The food was decent for the price, and I'd probably be back. One thing to note is that they're only open for breakfast and lunch. read more

Ranch House Grille - Bacon Smoked Cheddar Burger with Sweet Potato Waffle Fries. AMAZING!!! - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

May I suggest teamwork? Working as one unit for the same cause? When you see your co-worker multi tasking and overloaded and all you are doing is cleaning a table that doesn't need to be cleaned that particular second with no customers waiting to be seated.....Stop, Think, & Assess. Little Miss Waitress, when our waiter was multi tasking and overloaded and we had waited quite a while for our order to be taken and we asked you for assistance, we were looking for more than "He'll be with you in a second. He is busy." You were cleaning a table next to us. No one waiting for that table and no one else beckoning for you. What would have been 90 seconds of your time to take an order for 2 to help your co worker out and make a customer happy? And your eye roll didn't help the matter. If you had taken our order for him and gave it to him, saying, "Buddy, I saw you were busy. I took the initiative and took their order to help you out. And here it is.... You would have made us happy and also him. Another option is asking for help. Our waiter could have asked for assistance from his coworkers that were not busy to please pack TO GO orders, ring the cash register, or to take our order. Wondering if there was a supervisor or manager monitoring the floor at this time that could have identified the breakdown of coordination. Our meals were tasty. Portions were filling. However, I do question my mashed potatoes because there was a side that had a hard crusty spot and a little discolored. The Texas Toast was actually toast. Quite different from what I am accustomed. I am used to the bread being grilled instead of going through a toaster. The toaster makes for a dried out center. The sausage gravy was "spot on" good. read more
