favorite restaurant in okc? maybe!. i have been to the ranch steakhouse a total of about 5x. a few times i have gone with my husband and a few with friends, and i have never gotten bad food or service here.
recently, last wednesday my husband and i went on a double date with our friends (another couple) and had a wonderful evening. i made reservations at 8:30pm and requested a booth and that's what we got!
anyways.. onto the food! i had the 7oz filet mignon cooked medium rare and a baked sweet potato with brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter. my filet was cooked perfectly! make sure to order one level down from what your liking is, because the steaks come on a 360 degree hot plate. mines was cooked rare when i first got it, but it kept cooking on the plate and then became medium rare which was perfectly fine with me. the baked sweet potato was huge! but, i loved it so much that i was happy to get a large portion. the sides average around 8 dollars a la carte, but they give you family sized portions. i honestly think i liked the sweet potato more than my filet even though the filet was the best steak i had ever had! if you order the filet mignon you won't need a steak knife, just a butter knife! it's that melt in your mouth tender! but, enough with my food..
my husband had the 14oz ribeye as usual medium rare and a side of sauteed mushrooms. his ribeye was amazing but the mushrooms were nothing special just salted button mushrooms thrown around in a pan, that's all.. our friends had the beef medallions and the duck also cooked medium rare, and they seemed to love their entrees as well since everyone pretty much finished their plates if not cleaned it completely.
for dessert we all shared the dulce dulce de leche ice cream pie which was caramel ice cream, chocolate ganache, toasted marshmallows, on a graham cracker crust, it was heaven! we also had the carnegie deli cheesecake from ny with lemon curd and blueberry compote. the lemon curd was absolutely divine!
the service was extremely friendly as usual and our server was very knowledgeable and polite, but ridiculously slow. it wasn't a big deal though since our food came out tasting more than delicious. however, he did manage to accidently put one of my friends food items on our tab, but it wasn't anything to cry about, just wouldn't expect any mistakes happening at a restaurant of this caliber. i'd expect simple mistakes like this at a cheesecake factory, but not at the ranch but then again.. we all make mistakes, lol!
overall, everyone had a great evening and we will definitely come back! the ranch steakhouse is the best steakhouse in okc!
