Ram Restaurant & Brewery

Went there for lunch. Got seated quickly. Requested to sit in Lisa’s section; she is the best server. She has a great personality, quick with any needs I may have, knows what I like to eat. The food was delicious. The manager came over to check in my experience. Not sure why it is getting such a low rating (3.5 stars). This is my go-​to place. Took my mom with me: she had the ribs and said they were awesome. I had a veggie burger and sweet potato fries. We both left feeling full and satisfied; she still had lots of leftovers. I will be going back sooner than later.

Waited at the front to be seated for five minutes. Sat in a corner that had a filthy floor, clearly had not be cleaned in hours. Viewed several servers socializing while people waited to be sat. The food was good but sitting at a table with filth on the ground was awful and a number of tables were dirty. Overall I think that they need a strong manager that reinforces the fundamental necessities of the restaurant culture. When people see dirty tables, a filthy floor and have to wait for a long period of time to be sat it leads to a less than desirable experience.
It could be such a treasure but it just doesn’t hit the mark.

Went to the ram one time so far and I can’t wait to go back. The food was excellent and our server was super friendly and informative. I am not easily wowed by places but I would definitely give the ram an A+

I really want to like The Ram more than I do. I love specialty crafted brews and it seems to have the right atmosphere. But, well, each time it just seems like a little bit of a let down. Like the last time, we had heard it had brunch and so showed up for Bloody Marys. They were decent, but there was no breakfast food. Something about a Bloody Mary with no egg dish is just… Disappointing

The 3 stars are for the beer only. I give 0 stars for food. So, the beer is amazing! Good choices for your taste and they do have growlers. The Buttface is my personal favorite! They also have a good happy hour on Friday and Saturday nights. The service is average, but the food is hot garbage. Had ribs about a week ago and they were over cooked. I could barely pull them apart to eat them. Went to a party there today and had the chicken wings. Well have you ever seen Christmas vacation? Yup those puppies were as dry as the Grizzwald Turkey. I recommend going there for a good beer, but eat anywhere else beforehand. Or just use your money to buy more beer and not eat ANY food!

Great service, been a few times now and never had to wait. To start us off we got the vampire (garlic) fries and it was delicious. Then I got a bowl of tomato basil bisque soup with flat bread and my sister got a burger and clam chowder. Neither of us had anything but positive things to say about the taste and quality of the food. Their portions are generous too.
Our server, I wish we could remember her name, she has a cute bob haircut and glasses. Anyways, she’s fantastic. We didn’t have to ask for refills once. She was on top of it. She even split our check when there was 3 of us no problems. Really good food and service, if you’re in the area id give this location a try :)

Blah, not good, not really bad just a chain restaurant.

Love the beers but they seem to have altered the menu and the selection is lack luster for food. No worries though just drink the beer.

I haven’t been to this place before and I don’t think I would ever eat elsewhere again! Awesome atmosphere, great service, and fantastic food!

The Ram has been a regular spot for me, whether it’s for happy hour drinks after a mundane work day, New Year’s Eve pre-​gaming, or a family dinner out (my son loves this place). The waiting area has a children’s picnic table and a movie playing, which comes in handy since the wait on Friday and Saturday nights can get lengthy.
Speaking of lengthy wait times, let’s get down to why my usual haunt is getting less than 5 stars. The Ram does not take reservations, but will put your name on their waiting list if it’s close to your arrival time. We called to put our name on the list as we left home, ten minutes away. We arrived, and had to wait, which I also expected. But as we are waiting, more people are arriving, and being seated. Wait a minute… we were here first, but the waiting lobby is now empty. We asked about it, and the hostesses (there were two) gave a limp, «oh sorry we skipped you, who are you again?» They cleaned a table after another five minutes and we were seated. Again, I don’t mind waiting at all for good food on a Saturday night. I mind when the staff is so blasé when they mess up.
Fast-​forward, our server was really nice and cheery which made me immediately feel better after the waiting snafu. It was super busy though, and I had to get my drink refilled by the person who brought our food out. The wait time for our meals was also pretty long, but I’ve come to expect that here.
Our food was awesome (as usual). The menu was recently revamped and their mac ‘n’ cheese is KILLER. The sauce is somewhere between alfredo and white cheddar. It’s basically perfect. My burger was fabulous (I usually get the Faburge but this time I opted for a BYO Burger with bacon and avocado). My fries were all the tiny end pieces, but I managed to eat them… because they were still super tasty. I wish I had room for dessert, because their colossal bread pudding looked unreal and smelled even better.
We will probably keep coming here. Just probably not on the weekends.

Stopped in for a burger and fries. Only have two things I noticed about this eatery:
Over-​priced, and Under-​fed.

What is up with this location???
The Ram is typically a safe bet no matter the location. You can count on good burgers, drinks and great service. I’ve been to at least half a dozen Rams and I just can’t with this location.
The food and service are just not up to par here, not at all. I gave it a couple of chances. I won’t we back. Given this is a few blocks from me, this location has no idea how many happy hours and quick meals they lost here.

Well this was a dissapointing lunch. Sorry to say you have gone downhill Ram! I had the portobello burger. I asked for no kale & got no lettuce at all. Then asked for lettuce & she brought out a small plate of arugula that looked like 2 weeks old… discolored and slimy! So I waited longer to eat my sad little burger. She finally brought me a decent piece of lettuce. Flavor was good but too salty. My parner had the Cubano sandwhich. He did not like the pickle juice all over the bbq pork. It tasted weird. It will be a long time before we come back here again. Wake up managers and owners!

Surprised me, as this establishment had generally been average. Sliding downhill maybe, but average.
We rolled around 8pm, and it was barely occupied by customers. Plenty of staff! Sat at the bar. It took several minutes to even get a hello. Apparently wiping down the fixtures was more important.
Order food, she makes a comment about a lettuce wrap being «cute.» Then has to come back to clarify the order. That she had written down. Yes, we both said medium. No one said medium well.
35 minutes later, our two very simple burgers show up. Except my cheese is on his burger. How do you mess that up?!
Eat the (now lukewarm) burgers off the hot plates (food warmers anyone?). The broccoli was acceptable.
She ended up discounting us 20%, which was nice. But I would recommend just making a burger at home. It will taste better and be done faster.
So, yea. Enjoy The Ram.

Stopped in for lunch and my wife, kid, and I all had a really nice meal. Our waitress was extremely nice and very attentive. I ordered the spicy caesar salad with blackened salmon filet cooked medium. The fish was cooked perfect, and tasted wonderful. The spicy caesar dressing was not overly spicy. I didn’t care for the cornbread croutons, and next time will ask for regular ones. My wife had the lunch special with half salad/​sandwich. The warm club sandwich was really good as well, definitely a repeat.

The worst restaurant I’ve been to in really long time. Very slow service, and the table we were sat at was directly in front of the door. Every time it opened a blast of freezing cold air would rush in and hit our table directly… awful…burger was over cooked, apps arrived with out main course. I could go on, but I don’t want to waste any more time on such an abysmal restaurant.
Taco time is a better place to eat right up the street, beware!

I stopped by here on my way across state because I wanted to get through the Seattle area before rush hour. I happened to hit this place at happy hour and I’m glad I did because I would never want to pay full price for the food they give you here. The crab and artichoke dip was serviceable, but the bratwurst should be banned by the FDA. I don’t know what they served me but it resembled a pepperoni stick sandwiched between charcoal briquettes with some Dijon mustard to dip it in. At least the beer at this place was ok.

We frequent this establishment more for the convenient location and nearly always default to the bar area for its casual dining and immediate seating access versus the typical long waits for restaurant seating. Lots of big screen T.V.s and plenty of sports to watch.
Unique to the Ram is their own lineup of beers. Also I have noticed the Ram has made a concerted effort to offer healthier choices on their menu. So yes you can get gluten free bread with your wheat beer…

Went around 6 pm with eight people. Had a reservation. Seated promptly. I believe everyone ordered something different. I ordered one of the special hamburgers with bacon. It was actually really good. Everyone commented they like their food.
Place was a bit loud.
Service was actually excellent. Very attentive wait staff as my water was always full.
Would go again.

I went with the sampler in regards with the beer, I like that idea, and have gotten it before at other Ram restaurants, The food was ok, I went with the chicken strips and wife went with the mac and cheese, the speed though, will make me think twice about coming back here, they were very slow at getting our food to us, took about a hour to get just the Chicken strips and mac and cheese to our table– really? Really? Thats not acceptable IMO, and we should of had the food in a half hour IMO, specially something simple like that! Needless to say, the Manager here should be ashamed if themselves! I would expect better service!
So overall, like I said with all the options available here in Lacey, I would have second thoughts about coming back here, And at this point, I dont think I would recommend them. The selection of beer is good though, just the service sucked.
