I had seen a lot of great reviews for this place, so I was excited to try Ranchers Sports Bar &…read moreGrill -- but unfortunately, it ended up being a little underwhelming. On the positive side, the staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the decor definitely delivered on the "ranch" vibe. The old-style wooden chairs and overall atmosphere gave it a cozy, rustic feel that I really liked. The food, however, was a bit hit or miss. We ordered the chicken strips, which honestly felt a little disappointing. They were cooked properly, but the chicken itself had an odd taste that threw me off. I had onion rings on the side -- they were good, but nothing particularly memorable. We also ordered two 1-lb orders of wings (hot honey and salt & pepper), and these were definitely the highlight of the meal. The wings were cooked really well, juicy without being dry, and both flavours were delicious. Overall, great service and atmosphere, but the food quality felt inconsistent. I'd come back for the wings, but probably skip the chicken strips next time. They also have a 7.99$ for 1LB of wings, which was definitely a bonus.

Great spot for classic pub food. My partner and I came here twice while we were in Hinton for work…read moreand both times we were very pleased. Reasonable prices for the potions and quality of the food and the service is pretty decent. The first time we went in our bartender/ server was great, wasn't super busy so we chatted a little bit and she gave us recommendations and was very quick to put our food in and get our drinks. The second time a different bartender/ server was not as good. It was less busy than the first time but she would go to the kitchen (which we can see from the bar) and be talking and laughing and we would have to waive her down a few times. But the food was great! Highly recommend the peirogies, they are crispy and have lots of filling and don't seem to be frozen ones from the grocery store they seem home made!

The Bacon Mushroom Swiss burger is by far the best burger I've had in Hinton, and the French fries are always perfectly golden and fresh-tasting, like they use fresh oil every time. Delicious! The kids love the Supercheese 3 cheese pizza here, which doesn't go overboard on the cheese but is flavourful enough not to need to. Their sauce is tangy and uncomplicated, and the crust is gently crispy on the outside, fluffy and soft on the inside. Really great, comforting food here for a good price, and the staff are very competent and courteous. The manager is a sweet woman who makes table-side visits, calls everyone "Sweetheart," and is always very happy to see her guests. If there was free wifi I might never leave.

Anyways, we stopped into Milos for a bite to eat after a fun day of snowboarding. We came on a Saturday evening and the place was somewhat busy. Our waitress was very sweet and quick to bring us our drinks (teas, coffee and water) right away. After that, not that it was her fault, they took forever to bring out our food. Kitchen was SO slow. Didn't know it was that hard too make salads... For food, this is what we ordered although I only tried two of them: - Chicken caesar salad ($13.50) - 2x Cajun caesar salad ($13.50) - the cajun chicken was good. Not much cajun or spice too it but it was cooked well. The caesar salad had too much dressing on it for my tastes. - Chicken fettucini alfredo ($18.50) - shared this with my buddy and it was probably the blandest fettucini alfredo I've ever had. No flavour at all. Almost reminded me of Michelino's...you know the ones you get out of the box. Yikes. - Lasagna ($16) - Cheeseburger ($12) - somehow my buddy's burger came without any cheese on it... Menu had a ton of greek options but they were super expensive ($20-30 price range). Definitely overpriced and based on the food that we ate, I would not want to spend that much on their food. I like how they had all the sports games on (watched some Raonic/Bouchard doubles tennis) but they need to condense the menu and focus on doing a couple of dishes well. Or figure out their identity. Is it Greek? Bar? Why is there pizza on the menu?

Mr. Mike's, I…read moredecided this evening to give your restaurant a try again... and once again I was super disappointed. Wednesday at 6:30ish PM, you should be having your dinner rush like most restaurants. I walk in, no one at the front. I look left then right, it isn't very busy. No more than 15 people. I see the ladies standing in back talking, we make eye contact.. they're busy.. so I patiently wait... and wait.. 13 minutes go by, my bladders about to pop, so I walk to the washroom... walking by the girls, smiling.. they're still talking about whatever.. finish in the bathroom walk back to the front... still no one there, I wait... and wait.. finally having a seat. They're busy they know I'm here.. at least I think...I don't know why I didn't walk to McDonald's.. almost 30 Minutes of waiting... Finally I get seated... at a Booth.. furthest from the entrance, but not before walking past 2 dirty tables.. just to be sat at another dirty table. I get drink, I look at the menu, I order a appy. Came out looking delicious, it was put on the table and the waitress said enjoy walking away...I didn't have any utensils, no napkins.. just me my drink and my appy. Again I did that thinking thing... figured she'd be right back with some chop sticks at least... I was so Hungry a tooth pick would have worked..nope.. I got nothing... she was gone, I finished my drink and waited.. She brings me my dinner, and asks if I needed anything else.. I look at the table.. and ask for a fork.. she apologizes and brings me a fork lol but yet no napkin? Haha Let's talk about her body odour... and I know I'm not the only one who noticed.. I'm not sure if she's new or what the deal was.. but if she's new.. your management really dropped the ball on training. Food wasn't horrible, steak tasted a bit funny, but I haven't had a steak in a while.. so maybe it me.

We weren't sure where to go our first night in Hinton. After doing a quick search on Yelp and…read moreGoogle, we decided to try Smitty's. The menu was interesting. In addition to the normal diner food, they also had what looked like Asian food including butter chicken. I called in on my burner cellphone and ordered a fettucine alfredo for my wife, and a steak and eggs breakfast for myself. After arriving, I waited a few minutes and was given my food after paying. After receiving my food, I immediately drove back to the hotel. To my surprise, when I got back to the hotel, not only did I get my steak and eggs, the fettucine alfredo, but, I also had a bonus box of ginger beef. The food was okay. It was diner food. Service was okay. They did try to contact me on my burner cellphone to let me know that I received a bonus, but, I left the phone in the car. It's an okay place.

No wait for us, but everyone who came after us without a reservation would have needed to wait until ~8:45PM. The menu isn't too extensive, but has a wide variety. I started with a Black Cherry Lemonade. For a party of four, we ordered Alberta Antipasto Skewers, Stuffed Porto, and Chef's Soup. The chef's soup of the day was a Salmon Chowder. We also ordered Basil Bliss Penne, Truffled Elk Tagliatelle, Orchard Duck, and Old Fashioned Bison Short Ribs to share as our mains. The Salmon Chowder was hearty and belly-warming. Lots of salmon bits in there and mixed vegetables. I liked that the chowder wasn't too thick and heavy. I absolutely loved the Stuffed Portos. They're soft, meaty, and juicy and the sauce it comes with mixes so well with the cashew and tofu crumble. As for the Alberta Antipasto Skewers, I can't say I've had Elk and Bison much, but the Elk pepperoni was pretty good! Can't go wrong with the prosciutto either since they just go so well with slices of toasted bread. Both of the sauce it came with was great, but I think I liked the green, herby sauce more than the thicker, creamy one. Onto our mains! The Old Fashioned Bison Short Ribs was a favorite amongst all. It's super tender and falls off the bone so easily. The sauce it comes with doesn't overpower the flavor of the bison either, but it does make it subtly sweet. I loved the veggies the sauce got all mixed in with as well, especially the broccolini. Of the two pastas, I liked the Basil Bliss Penne because it's vegan-friendly and absolutely delicious. I wish the pasta was a little more al dente, but it was still really good. More subtle flavor wise than the other pasta, and not too heavy. I can't say much about the Truffled Elk Tagliatelle since I only sampled a bit. It's on the flavorful and rich side, but my party absolutely loved this too. Lastly, for the Orchard Duck, the sauce was the delicious. I think the duck could be made a little more tender, but it did pair well with the sauce. I also liked the contrast of the crispy rice cake. There was a thin layer of outer crispy layer and the rice in the inside was more soft and mushy. All the dishes had a lot of texture variety which was amazing. My partner and I shared the Chocolate Pecan Tart which was an absolutely amazing way to end the night. Our friends shared their Baklava Cheesecake which seemed to be a popular choice given that a lot of other tables ordered it. The pecan tart was not too sweet and had a rich chocolatey taste. Service was absolutely stellar as well. Our server checked in on us periodically to make sure we were doing fine and also gave us ample time to enjoy our dishes. We were also checked in and situated quickly thanks to the lady at the check-in counter. Everyone we interacted with was really friendly. I can see why our accomodation host recommended Raven Bistro to us. Thanks for the wonderful experience! We all enjoyed our meal here!
