“ Yesterday we celebrated our son’s graduation at the ranch and everything was amazing. I was able to make the reservation for 12 with no issues. They also sent a text message the day before as a reminder. Last year we had the same experience with my 1st son’s graduation and we had a great experience as well. Both time we were able to take a cake and they gave us plates and forks. All the staff is always friendly and the food is amazing! I highly recommend the cowboy feast. ”
“ This is a fantastic restaurant, perfect for both office and family gatherings. The food is always fresh and delicious, with the onion rings and chicken tenders being standout favorites. We've celebrated my birthday here as well as several office events, and the restaurant has consistently exceeded our expectations. It's definitely one of our family's top choices in Irving. ”
“ I just had to update my review: A while back, I stopped in on a hard day. I needed a break more than a meal. I didn’t realize it at the time, but the server who helped me that day — a joyful, larger-than-life presence — made that hour feel like a gift. I left recharged and grateful, and even wrote a review. What I didn’t expect was to walk back in months later with my son — on a much better day — and be greeted by the same person: Barrett, now known to us as “50 Cal.” This time, he and his wife Jennifer were our hosts. What started as a quick bite turned into a three-hour memory. We shared the blackened chicken Cobb salad and one of the best burgers I’ve had in ages. Then came the cocktails: a frozen Long Island iced tea with a sangria float, a frozen margarita with strawberry liqueur, and a green tea cocktail that was out of this world. It wasn’t just the food or drinks that made the afternoon — it was the experience. The way Barrett and Jennifer elevated a good day into a great one. The way they brought warmth, joy, and a sense of connection you don’t often find at a restaurant. So once again, I tip my hat to The Ranch — and to Barrett and Jennifer — for making great food even more meaningful. ”
“ Hands down one of the best meals we've had in a long time! The Ranch at Las Colinas didn’t disappoint — from the crispy chicken fried chicken smothered in gravy to the buttery mashed potatoes and sauteed veggies, everything was on point. Service was great, the vibe was warm and welcoming, and we left with happy bellies and clean plates. Highly recommend if you’re in the area! ”
“ I had an incredible dining experience at this restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the cozy and inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone. The food was absolutely exquisite each bite was a burst of rich, mouthwatering flavors that left me wanting more. It genuinely felt like a flavor explosion in the best possible way. The service was just as impressive; the waitresses were extremely attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. I can’t wait to return to this place is a true gem! ”

“ My family and I recently had brunch here and it was a great experience. It had a rustic but modern feel to it. The staff was very accommodating for our large party (20). There were so many different food options to choose from setup in different rooms served buffet styles. They definitely had something for everyone palette even the smaller kids. I will definitely visit again soon. ”
“ Perfect for lunch on the patio! Quick and friendly service and I see why it’s so popular. We enjoyed the Chefs Fav 4 appetizer with elk tacos, queso, onion rings and fried green tomatoes. Everything was crispy and flavorful. We shared the Texas Hot Chicken Sandwich which didn’t have much heat but still tasted great. Would come again if we visit Dallas in the future! ”
