The Ranch House Grill

My husband was in town for business, and I accompanied him on this trip. He freqents this restaurant when he is in town. We stopped in on our way to our hotel the first night. I enjoyed it so much, I asked him to take me back on our last night. EVERYTHING is delicious, and perfectly prepared. The wait staff is one of the best I have experienced! Prices, quality, portions, and service — all excellent! Be sure to visit from 4 – 7 pm as it is happy hour! I ordered a glass of wine, and was delighted when the waiter brought me two!

We have been coming here for over 10 years and are never disappointed with our meals. Great selection, great prices, great service, huge portions… no complaints. Several favorites… cheeseburger, chopped sirloin w/​onions and mushrooms, spinach salad w/​chicken, grilled chicken — love when they have the Greek specials including moussaka or the pastichio… Will be back… next week… lol.

Their turkey special around thanksgiving time is amazing. Cheap beer and great food at this gandy blvd staple.

The Ranch House is a great casual neighborhood restaurant. Went there for dinner on St. Patrick’s Day, and I had the corned beef and cabbage, it was excellent. The corned beef was tender and tasty, served with cabbage potatoes and carrots, and a salad too. Our server was Dennis, he did a great job. We specifically came for corned beef and cabbage, and there were going to be six of us but 3 were running late. Dennis was thoughtful enough to let us know that they were almost out of the corned beef and cabbage so we were able to go ahead and place the orders quickly to be sure we got ours. My son had the Spanakopita, it looked absolutely delicious, was served with rice and a greek salad. The portions are always very generous. I have never been disappointed with an experience at the Ranch House.

This place was awful. I ordered the ribeye. It had no flavor and was over cooked. My baked potato was dried out too. The bread they serve before your meal is just as bland so they give you garlic butter to make it seem tasty. The food is over priced too. If you want a good steak don’t waste your money here. Service is friendly.

Best American/​Greek fare in South Tampa. Great staff, tasty food. Lunch portions are enough for two.

My husband and I are new to the South Tampa area and we live right down the road and we always pass by here finally we had the opportunity to enjoy a delicious meal here. Lots to choose from Steaks, Seafood, Chicken, Pastas and many more! The gulf fried shrimp was so fresh and filling! The hot sourdough bread was a plus too! Wine was tasty and well worth the glass price. Not sure what was up with are server. She was just all over the place, kind of rude. Tried to get her attention for several things such as napkins, bread, refills, the usual and she acted as if she heard me but kept on walking. Had to grab another server after I tried getting her attention as she continued to walk away to take back my husbands steak back the kitchen to be cooked a little longer. I will be returning I just hope I’m not stuck with her again.

I love this place. Good home cooking and traditional favorites with Greek food added in. The wings are huge and delicious. The French onion soup is yummy. I have been here a few times with my husband and we like the food and are never disappointed. The servers are all very nice and attentive as well. We live close by and plan to come back soon.

The owner is cheap and loves to cut corners! Food tasted like it was about to turn, bread was one molecule short of plastic, all of the dressing had more mayo than flavor. Not to mention their website advertises that they give 15% military discount to support our active military and they gave us a hard time about it and ended up only giving us 6% off without letting us know (in hopes that we wouldn’t notice) I am not one to fight for discounts, but don’t advertise it and then pull one over your guests.

I’m new to the area and was in the mood for seafood. I checked out a couple of different places nearby but this place had some really good reviews. The ambiance was kind of cool. Kind of reminded me of where I grew up in Georgia. The kids loved the deer antlers on the walls and all of the different cowboy guns. The place was kind of dead, not much going on. Our waitress Riley was very nice and checked on us often. We started with cheese sticks and the stuffed portabella… The boys loved the cheese sticks but I really didn’t care for the portabella. Too creamy for me. I ordered the three little ones kids meals and they were very large portions. They could barely eat all of it, but probably bc they loved the bread and ate so much before their plates came out… My oldest son and I ordered the captain broil. It was very good and seasoned well. This will Definitely be a place that I will come back to with the boys. I did read Mondays and Tuesdays that kids eat free…

This is an old favorite of mine. I’ve never had a bad meal or bad service here. What else is there to say? The food is great, the service is great, go and enjoy yourself!

Unsuspectingly amazing. Waitstaff is happy (good sign). Was immediately told the owners are Greek and that there’s many Greek specials, but I went with a burger when I heard they grind their own beef. My burger was so good and fresh. My friends had a catfish dinner, and potato cheese soup, both loved theirs. I will definitely go back.

This place was quite tasty! Very casual spot with a pretty good selection on their menu that’s good for the whole family. Cowboy like décor on the inside and no white tablecloths or suits. The dinner started with good, warm, soft bread that came with a garlic butter and a cinnamon butter. The wife and I ordered prime rib, and it was good! I ordered the bigger cut, and her the smaller. They gave her the bigger cut for the same price, since they brought her an end piece that had more meat on it or something they told us. It was sitting on a plate all alone in its own juices and seasoned quite well. I was pleased with the small amount of fat on mine. She was also very happy with hers. We both had the garlic smashed potatoes which were also good, and I had a salad and she the zucchini. While the salad was nothing special (it didn’t suck, it was just a salad), she was raving about her zucchini. My oldest had spaghetti which she liked, though there were several better selections from the kids menu in my opinion. Her meal was free, as kids eat free Tues & Mon I believe, so our bill came to around $ 50 total to include the tip. The menu also had various steaks, chicken, sandwiches/​burgers, and seafood. Some of the seafood entrees going to other tables actually looked really good. Our server was very good and on top of everything, and the place was clean and in order. I recommend this place for everyone, but especially families with small kids who aren’t getting dressed up for a fine dining experience that still want steak and other such «fine» foods.

Pretty good food — exactly what you’d expect from a mid-​range steak place. Good service, nice salads, the steak was great! The bread was fantastic — BUT, note to owner: your little butter packets are so frozen hard that they’re useless, and can’t be spread onto the bread. Have you ever tried it? I think there’s no reason that sealed butter can’t be kept at room temperature. And not GARLIC butter, just regular butter!!! C’mon!

The meal began with a basket of fresh rolls and each meal portion is huge so plan accordingly. We shared the French Dip sandwich and each of us had a bowl of soup. Plenty of food. The kids shared the tenders meal, again plenty for the two boys– ages 7 & 9. Spanakopita and lobster bisque was also on special so that was also a choice for one of our party. Thoroughly enjoyed everything. Only bad part is we don’t live near here so we will have to visit again when we are in Tampa.
The person having the Lobster Bisque says it is the best she has ever had. I have to agree that my Tomato Basil soup was was creamy and not acidic at all. Loved every bit of it.

Best steak and salad combo ever! This place beats Outback, Texas Roadhouse and Longhorns by far. The steak was cooked to perfection, most steak house cook to your request but they understand that a steak continues to cook after it comes off the grill. I ordered rare and I got rare. The salad wasn’t just some lettuce in a bowl, it came with a finely chopped olives with fresh tomatoes, bell pepper and cucumbers. If your ever in Tampa and just tired of having seafood and hotwings, the Ranch House Grill is the place to go.

I like this place! It’s a simple place nothing fancy but good. They have quite a variety on the menu and daily specials as well as a good happy hour. I really enjoy the Greek chicken kabobs. The staff is very friendly. I ordered a take out dinner and the person on the phone was friendly. When I came in to pick it up I got good service and when the hostess went to the kitchen to get it a manager came by and made sure I was being helped. Nice place.

Just had a great dinner with the family. Stuffed flounder was delicious. Husband had country fried steak, he also loved it! Can’t say anything bad. Service was fast and friendly, Debbie was great!

Service is prompt, courteous, friendly and fast. I love pretty much everything on the menu. The Greek dishes are very good (considering its a Ranch House!) so perhaps one of the owners or chefs is from the Mediterranean or is simply its cuisine enthusiast. The half chicken is a homestyle recipe thats very tasty. The pasta dishes are rich in flavor and the portions are HUGE. Salads are fresh and crisp. Bathrooms are clean. Décor is dated but somehow that works for the place. Some of the booths, tables and chairs could use a little refreshing but thats nitpicking. We live down the road so when the mood strikes its a go to place. Good food, good prices. Dont need much more than that! :)

Good food. Good prices. We go every Friday night. Highly recommend. Just like home cooking.
The eggplant parmigian is one of our favorites. Give it a try you will definitely come back.
