Everything was great specially my Prime Rib was cooked to perfection. We will be back for more cocktails.

Good atmosphere, food was good and service was great. Especially since how late it was and how packed Red Deer was for the week. The potato service was a first and wish more places would do it like that. read more

Went today for a birthday lunch with my grandchildren. My daughter and the children arrived about 11:50 am and waited in the lobby for at least 10 minutes to be seated. When asked for how many she said 8 people and the server rolled her eyes in disgust. I arrived at 12:00 noon and by 12:27pm they still had not taken our order. I had to be back to work by 1pm which they knew as my husband had told them. If they were busy I could understand but there wasn't more than 6 tables filled. We walked out and won't go back. read more

Terrible, terrible food. Service is great! But, unfortunately we come for the food. Prime rib was ordered medium rare, and served well done. I decided at that point I was done with the food here. And just gave it back. My mother also had prime rib, she did get her piece replaced. The new piece came out medium rare - which means the kitchen just didn't care to actually read the order. New piece came out, it wasn't able to be cut. My caesar salad we were up charged for was smaller than the rest also super gross. Our meals (the two prime ribs) were made free, so they really did try. The manager tried to lecture me on how they make prime rib? lol Ty I know. You explaining to me why it's bad isn't helpful Honestly service was fantastic, but you kind of need food to save a restaurant. read more

The food was excellent! I had the steak and lobster special and my wife had a steak option. The meat was excellent and the sides were amazing. Baked potatoes, and mixed veggies. What wasn't to love? Then add in a great server in Megan and we were really happy. It's made our visit to Red Deer even better than we hoped. We loved it so much, we're going back tonight! read more

Lots of parking in front of the restaurant. We were seated immediately for a Friday at 6:30PM. Booths are nice and cozy. Great atmosphere - very ranch - my farmer dad would have been very happy here. Waitress was very kind but forgot about us (and admitted it to us saying she got distracted folding napkins and apologized). Place was 60% full. Specials were all surf and turf and quite pricey. Bathroom is stalls, was clean and well stocked. I got the Baby Backs. Boyfriend got the 6oz New York Strip. Friend 1 got the Chicken n' Ribs. Friend 2 got the Prime Rib Burger. We all got a slice of watermelon on our plates as well (not sure if this was seasonal or standard). Ribs, Ribs + chicken, and steak entrees came with soup AND salad with house dressing - so everyone but Friend 2 who got the burger got this. Cream of mushroom soup was very nice and home-made. Salad had too much dressing for me. Slice of bread or very white and I would have preferred to see a nice fresh bun. Baby Backs were very saucy which was nice and very tender. Maybe a bit cold though. Did come with a warm cup of ?lemon water for hand dunking which was fun! Cinnamon corn ball was cool. Like a corn fritter with real corn but dessert-like because of the cinnamon topping. Stuffed baked potatoes was 11/10 delicious and waitress came with toppings (sour cream, bacon bits, whipped butter, chives) and was very generous. Cooked mixed vegetables was as expected. Boyfriend got the 6oz New York Strip. He was Very happy with it. Asked for medium but it was closer to medium-rare (still bleeding a touch in the middle) which was completely acceptable. Very little fat he had to cut off/waste. Friend 1 got the Chicken n' Ribs. He was happy with this. Fries were a bit undercooked for his liking. Also comes with hand-dunking water. Friend 2 got the Prime Rib Burger. She said it was not to her liking aka not the best she has ever had. We definitely did not have room for dessert but were very happy with the watermelon slice. Overall great place for some good grub! read more

See all

This restaurant is exceptionally outdated in how it looks. It's cold and uninviting. Unfortunately that is also the best part. The food is bad. So so bad and the staff and manager especially do not care. read more

I have ate there a few times pre Covid, and it was quite good IMHO. The last time I ate there I had an excellent hot hamburger sandwich. My wife ordered a soup and sandwich and found the soup very unpleasant and couldn't eat it , when notifying the the waitress she was quite rude and never offered exchange the soup or discount it from the bill. I would like to return for the hot hamburger, but my wife won't return there again read more

Years ago the Ranch House was one of my favorite places in Red Deer. Recently the quality has went way down. I've been there twice in 6 months and everything has been bad both times. The first time was for lunch I was the only one in the bar and there was only one waitress for the bar and the restaurant. My food came cold and I never got a second drink. The steak sandwich was full of grisle and had a layer of silver skin. It was clearly a very cheap cut but it was a steak sandwich so that's what I get. The second time I went for a late lunch and sat in the dining room. I ordered the 12 oz filet this time because I wanted a good cut. It took 45 minutes even though everyone in the restaurant was already eating. I also ordered 4 black tiger prawns with the steak ( for 8 dollars!!). I did not get tiger prawns I got small shrimp similar to what I get at the grocery store in the frozen food section for $ 9.99 a bag. The steak itself was blue rare when I ordered medium rare. The waitress was very upset and had the whole meal replaced within 20 minutes. The 2nd time the steak was medium but I didn't mind. They offered me free desert but by the time I finished I had been there well over an hour and a half and had to decline. They didn't discount the bill at all so needless to say I won't be back. If I owned a steakhouse I would hire someone that can cook a steak correctly in one try. read more

It's was great. I tried the blackened chicken sandwich and was blown away. Staff was really nice

This used to be my go to place for a nice meal. Last time we went there were 6 of us. We ordered our meals. 2 of them included steak and they were cold. Ordered 3 desserts we were charged for but never received. Waitress was giving us the bums rush towards the end. We had made a reservation and were told no time limit. Waitress said an hour was long enough. Ha. Took 45 min just to get our meals. When we arrived there was no one else there. After we ordered the dessert she came and asked us to pay and I gVe her a 20 percent tip. And we never got the desserts. Felt like asking for my tip back but I was raised to always tip. We had to flag down staff to get water's and to get drink refills. Will never go back again. read more

Great little mom and pop cowboy steakhouse. Alberta is the new Wild West and the Ranch House fits right in. Canada has better quality food than America because Monsantos GMO influence isn't as prevalent. Lots of grass fed Organic free range cattle. Beautiful Canada!! read more

THE RanchHouse restaurant & bar - entrance - Seafood Near Me - Red Deer, Alberta

We had eaten here over a year ago and had a fantastic experience. Great food and service. so we went back for an early Father's Day meal and was very disappointed. Every time the waitress came to the table it was as if a black cloud descended and we felt like we were definitely a huge annoyance to serve even while trying to be polite and understanding of the obviously busy situation. The order was mistaken numerous times and everything seemed to be a huge inconvenience to the waitress who couldn't even muster the most basic level of care or politeness. Every time she came by she dumped the food or drink on the table and left without a word, not giving us a chance to request anything further. Neither steak was cooked to the requested state and even though we explained the need for gluten free plates, bread was tossed on the mains and the salad. We understand having a bad day but we will not be back. read more

Food was excellent but the waiters Covid mask was loose and under his nose for most of the meal. At the end he wasn't wearing it. Food 4 Stars Covid prep 0 read more

Go here at least once a week or supper. Food is sooo good. So sorry that Dave had passed as I have known him for over 40 years. Have still been going and the food is still top quality read more

This place was empty and no surprise why. The food is bad. Everything. Prime rib was rubbery. NY was flavorless. French Onion soup was the worst I have had in my life - a 10 year old could have done better. Escargot was horrible. Just a major disappointment all around. They get 2 stars for excellent service. read more

Was there recently with my niece and her husband for lunch. My niece had the corn beef san and he had his favorite, veal cutlets, while I had the steak san. We were all very satisfied with the food and the service was friendly and very good. Wish they were on the south end of the city, closer to where I live. This place should be full at lunch time, was also very satisfied on previous visits. read more

Ate here a few times and both times have been very good. The service was fast, friendly and efficient. They give a lot of food at very reasonable prices. The steaks have been cooked to the way we asked. I have had some better steaks, but these are very good. The best thing about this place is the apple pie! If you go here, you need to save room for apple pie or even if you are full, get this! Better than my Baba's and you won't be disappointed. read more

First of all, you will never have an empty drink in your hand. I was about half way done both my water and ice tea when our amazing foreign waiter comes around every few minutes filling both mine and my girlfriends drinks and asking how our meal was. I order one of the specials which was an 8oz Sirloin which came with prawns, chose of many kinds of potatoes, veggies, and you can get a soup and salad to start. It all came very quickly and was absolutely delicious. My girlfriend and I were planning on ordering deserts but our main course was an absolute feast. Would highly recommend this establishment for any young kids looking to take their girl out on a fancy date on a budget. The food was totally worth the price and very reasonable. This restaurant will not dissapoint whatsover as they have a massive selection of both food and drinks. read more

Excellent meals (4 of us) and the service was incredible! Full with a waiting line after 6 but don't leave without trying the food. Will enjoy many more meals here, keep ip the great work. read more

Very good food and appropriate portions. Outstanding service. I'm very impressed with this place.

Absolutely horrible customer service. I ordered a steak (medium), and it came well done. Not the biggest deal, so I sent it back. I got the SAME steak back, cooked more. Yes, more. When I finally flagged down a server (any server by this point, because mine disappeared) and told them what happened, it was too late for them to try again as the rest of my party were all finished their dinners. The server said he'd give us a 'discount'. I got $5 off my $22 steak dinner. When I complained, the manager/owner came out and angrily asked me "So, you don't think you should pay for your dinner? You still ate the salad and fries!!" I was surprised he was so rude and confrontational. He also never apologized for the mix-up. I explained what happened and that I didn't think I should pay for a steak I never got to eat, and that steaks don't cost $5. He offered $10 off, and then only took $6 so we had to complain again. While we were waiting at the front, I overheard another table tell their server that their steaks were over-done. I hope they had better luck than I did. Quite obviously we're never, ever going back. read more
