I've been on an extended stay in Williston while working on building a gas plant, and let me tell…read moreyou, the Tavern at the Grand has become my go-to spot for unwinding after long days on the job. This place is a unique little oasis in the heart of oil country, with a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a welcome escape from the hustle. The diverse menu, featuring expertly grilled steaks, burgers, pasta dishes, and award-winning appetizers like their excellent tavern wings, keeps things exciting - no two visits feel the same! The food here is absolutely top-notch. So far, I've tried the cedar plank salmon, which was perfectly cooked with a smoky flavor that paired beautifully with the sides; the bread pudding, rich and indulgent with just the right amount of sweetness; the prime rib burger, juicy and packed with bold flavors reminiscent of their standout prime rib French dip that other guests rave about; and the penne vodka, creamy and comforting with a kick that hits the spot. Every dish has been executed flawlessly, using fresh ingredients that elevate even the simplest meals. It's clear the kitchen, led by the amiable chef Gerald, puts real care into their constantly evolving menu. But what elevates this place to 5-star status is the incredible service from the entire staff. All the bartenders and bar managers are wildly attractive and bring such vibrant energy to the bar - they're attentive, fun, and always quick with a recommendation or a perfectly mixed drink, making you feel like a regular from day one. Kaylee is fantastic, and Bree is an absolute rockstar, handling the crowd with effortless charm and skill. Their energy matches the friendly vibe of the whole team, from the front desk to the servers, who go out of their way to ensure everything is just right. It's the kind of hospitality that turns a good meal into a memorable experience, especially when you're far from home. Pictured here are some of their new seasonal drinks that I highly recommend trying: the Pumpkin Spice Old Fashioned, with its warm, autumnal twist on a classic, and the Grinch Goes Hard, a festive, potent concoction that's perfect for the holidays and packs a delightful punch. If you're in Williston for work or passing through, do yourself a favor and stop by the Tavern at the Grand. Great food, outstanding service, and that cozy bar/lounge setup make it the best spot in town. Highly recommend - I'll be back for more!

That said, the hostess experience has consistently been the weak point for me. On my most recent visit, there were open seats in the bar area and I politely requested to sit there because it felt warmer and more intimate for our group. The request was denied in a way that came across unnecessarily dismissive and unfriendly, which unfortunately set the tone for the evening. I also think the restaurant could improve how the back dining room is managed during colder months. That area tends to be very cold when it first opens in the evening, and guests are often seated there before the room has had time to warm up. It would make a big difference if the area was opened and heated before seating guests, since most people naturally prefer to sit somewhere warm when it's freezing outside. Unfortunately, when customers ask to move to a warmer area, it can feel like the request is treated more as an annoyance than an effort to make guests comfortable. At a restaurant of this caliber, hospitality starts at the front door. The food and servers are excellent, but the front-of-house experience could definitely use improvement.

Being locally owned and operated only adds to the appeal. Highly recommended!

H&M's Steakhouse -- A True Five-Star Experience in Watford City…read more Living in Watford City, North Dakota, you sometimes come to expect restaurants to be inconsistent -- service can be inexperienced, food overpriced or overcooked, and timing hit or miss. H&M's Steakhouse is the complete opposite. From the moment you walk in, the service is warm, attentive, and professional. Glasses stay full, staff are welcoming, and your food arrives quickly without sacrificing quality. I've eaten here since they first opened, and to this day I have never left disappointed. The steaks are exceptional -- true top-quality cuts, hand selected, perfectly seasoned, and flame grilled exactly the way a steak should be. In my opinion, these are the best steaks in North Dakota, and I would confidently put them up against Ruth's Chris Steak House any day of the week. The rest of the menu is just as impressive. The HM Pasta will feed a grown man for two days, the sides are generous, and if the baby carrots are on the menu, order them. The desserts are homemade and outstanding -- the crème brûlée is one of my favorites. What truly separates H&M from other restaurants is the ownership. The owners are heavily involved, often cooking the steaks themselves because they genuinely care about quality and consistency. In a town where restaurants sometimes run out of basics, H&M somehow always has the full menu available and ready to go. Another rare quality is how much they value customer feedback. The owners personally address concerns and truly care about the customer experience. And I would be remiss not to mention BJ -- hands down the best waitress in McKenzie County. If you're lucky enough to get her as your server, your evening will be warm, fun, and incredibly attentive. Whether it's a client dinner, large gathering, date night, or takeout, H&M consistently delivers excellent food that is professionally prepared and beautifully plated. My recommendation: Start with the huge shrimp cocktail, order your favorite cut of steak -- the filets, bone-in ribeyes, and New York strips are all outstanding -- add mushrooms, grilled jalapeños, and definitely the baby carrots. Pair it with a glass of wine or cocktail and finish with one of the homemade desserts. Watford City is fortunate to have a restaurant like H&M's Steakhouse. Once you eat here, there's a good chance you won't want to go anywhere else for steak again.

Plenty of table and booth seating inside. Their pizza is amazing. Williston lacks amazing pizza and this place changes that. Prior to discovering Hula now does pizza we would go to Dabinos, rivers edge or the sports den for pizza. Pizza Hut and Damion's make pizza but those are like classic comforts. Hula has great options for toppings. Tastes great. The original crust is great. They have a sourdough which the flavor is there but a little tough. Soft serve ice cream also available for when McDonald's shake machine doesn't work.

Came in to the Ranchman's 23 today for lunch with a few coworkers…read more.. It was seat yourself, we snagged a table and a few minutes later a waitress was there taking our drink order. Pretty solid start. We were also the only table in the dining area. Drinks come, we start to ask about food. On the entree portion it says to ask for a Steak Menu, if you're interested in that. So we did, and were told they don't have a steak menu. All of their entrees are listed on the menu. So after finding them as a steakhouse and not seeing any steaks on the menu i had to ask, "So do you sell steaks?".. which they did, just their menu must have been outdated. She mentioned the surf and turf which made my ears perk up. My interest was piqued. I get soup or salad, caesar salad it is. Grilled or breaded shrimp (wanted to skip the grease) grill em. How do i want my steak cooked? Rare. Side to go with it? Loaded baked potato...........they dont serve them until after 5, fine make it mac and cheese. I also ordered the ruben bites for the table to snack on. Appetizers come and there is only one complaint so far from my peer. She ordered the soup of the day "Veggie Beef" and received "Chicken Noodle", which made it seem like the waitress we had was misinformed. The board at the front also said veggie beef, so there was a missing link in communication somewhere. Onto the entree.... My shrimp were cooked, and seasoned with a small amount of pepper. My steak was sat upon a single leaf of lettuce (i could've done without) and was cooked to a perfect medium (remember i wanted rare), and the mac and cheese was fresh out of a Kraft blue box with a bit of shredded cheese melted on top. Now, i am not one to send food back, and its not my first time eating blue box nor a steak thats cooked more than i like. But the waitress didnt ask me how anything was or how my steak was cooked after she served it. I ate it all anyhow. The bill comes, my surf and turf was $33, and i had a $2 up charge for mac and cheese. When i say that i laughed out loud, i cant exaggerate how silly i felt for not sending any part of this back. Super lack luster visit, wouldn't be high on my recommendation list to anyone. Unfortunate.
