Great spot for barbecue in Santa Fe! Pretty busy though, and they don't take reservations but have a waitlist you can join. We checked in around 8 pm and only waited about 10-15 minutes for our table. I liked the decor and vibe of the place, with both indoor and outdoor seating options. Our server was very chipper and everything came out quickly. Unfortunately, they were all out of ribs by the time we dined so instead I opted for the pulled pork plate. It came with a corn muffin, which was really delicious and I also opted for the baked beans (which were A-ok) and sweet potato fries (could have been a little crispier). The pulled pork was pretty good as well but not the best I've had by a stretch. Prices were incredibly reasonable, especially for the portions. I think they also have a happy hour 3-6 pm everyday, which would definitely be worth checking out! read more

Reviews looked good so we had to check it out. Came here on a Wednesday night. Quite busy for mid week, but we had a reservation and were seated right away. We had two large parties sitting on both sides of us, so it was a bit noisy but not too loud to where we could still hear each other. I did notice one couple asked to be reseated onto the patio. Started off with their apple - walnut salad - delicious. Then the flat iron steak which had to be one of the most flavorful and tender flat iron steaks I've ever tasted. We also had the ranch salad with a skewer of the brown butter bbq shrimp. Would love to know how they made the brown butter bbq sauce, so good I could drink it. Our food was delicious. The service could have been better. We were never checked on and we had to track down our server to get out check. Literally did not see her for about 15 minutes. Truly thought she may have been on break. I do remember her name, but she could have been super busy. There are so many great restaurants in Santa Fe, but if you're looking for a casual dinner this is the place. read more

Awesome chicken and avocado on sourdough sandwich with waffle fries. Bartender was awesome. There was a local who was a little annoying too noisy but my guess is he's here a lot. Many of the staff were kind to him. read more

A friend and I ate here last week. We sat at the bar. The bar top is nice and wide with plenty of space and seating. I ordered the two brisket enchiladas with a cornbread with green chile in it. Amazing! My friend ordered the two turkey sliders off the happy hour menu, with a side salad. She enjoyed her sliders. The bartender was quite busy as the restaurant was packed! But she was friendly and attentive. This restaurant was fairly close to my hotel as well, so that was nice. read more

We were heading home from a camping trip and looking for something in Cerrillos. This one was the choice. Unfortunately we didn't realize it was a BBQ place until inside. I'm good with it, but not my hubby. He ended up getting a burger which he said was ok. I got the half chicken with white BBQ sauce. Mine was great. Chicken well done, sides were excellent (I chose the BBQ beans and potato salad). The green chile cheese muffin was good, too. All in all it was a good meal and the price was good too. Our dinner was under $40! Actually closer to $30! read more

A party of 12 from the Santa Fe Foodies ate at the Ranch House (again), and everyone loved the food and service. One person raved about the burger, another loved the huge chicken salad--most ordered BBQ, including me. I've lived here long enough to recall Josh's BBQ up the street before the chef opened The Ranch House, so I know where to go in the city for the BEST BBQ. I ordered the Brisket Plate and asked for 'moist' rather than 'lean' (my take: moist is the Point, lean the Flat). I loved the moist and yes, lean brisket, which came shredded rather than sliced, meaning you don't get fat, you get flavor! OK, go lean if you must, but I really suggest you try moist brisket. For the two sides, I ordered the Green Chile Slaw, which folks rave about. I'm not a big coleslaw eater, but I did like this version even if I didn't really get the green chile. On the 2nd side, our waitress told us we could order a Caesar salad for a mere $1 extra, and let me tell you, this is the best deal around! The salad was pretty big, but the Caesar dressing is just outstanding! Most Restaurants call romaine with a white dressing that might be ranch a Caesar. The Caesar at the Ranch House is a real Caesar with big, bold flavors from a chef that isn't afraid to use anchovies and other ingredients to make it delicious. So unusual and delicious are the House-made Cornbread Croutons. A little sweet, very crunchy, they pair so nicely with this outstanding Caesar dressing. One of the best Caesars in town. With the brisket came a very tasty cornbread muffin. I ordered 2 BBQ ribs on the side for my wife and me to split. These are Babyback; I usually prefer the meaty St. Louis cut, but these ribs were outstanding. Almost fall off the bone (as they should be), they were tender and moist, and had great smoke. Next time I may go for the ribs; they are amazing. My wife had the Salmon Taco plate; I tried a bite and approved. It came with very creamy Refried Beans and excellent Calabacitas. I think BBQ is the name of the game here, but the tacos can be recommended as well. On the recommendation of someone in our party, we tried the homemade Coffee Toffee Pinon Crunch ice cream. Very good! I'm super spoiled about ice cream since Hello Sweet Cream came to our neighborhood in Eldo, but I have to say, Chef Josh impressed me with his ice cream. We had 12, and everyone got served at once. The kitchen has its act together. Our server, Tyana, was a delight! We didn't order drinks, but with the salad upgrade, extra ribs, two entrees, and dessert, the bill was $42, which is an amazing value for the quality of the food. read more

Monday. March 2, 2026. Lunch. This restaurant is right by the Texas Roadhouse. So a Ranch House and a Roadhouse get together and have a... Nevermind. I visited here with my mom, sisters and wife after attending a funeral. My middle sister said the food was good here. The place had lots of full tables and the parking lot stood packed. They had a lunch menu, which we ordered from. Lunch menu valid Monday through Friday, 11 am until 2:30 pm. Our waitress looked very busy, but she refilled our drinks a few times. I ordered the baby back rib plate for $15. This included 4 bones, a cornbread, and waffle fries. I used there spicy bbq sauce, which wasn't too sugary and just the right amount of fire. They served a healthy amount of large waffle fries and the cornbread wasn't too dense and tasted great. Ribs were moist and meaty. My wife ordered the smaller plate ($10) with 1/4 pound of brisket, cornbread and sautéed spinach. The black iced tea, $4, tasted super fresh and strong. The plates here were large and fresh. Service fast and friendly. Lunch prices were very fair for the amount of food they offered. I will be back again. read more

My band. RELAAY, is in Santa Fe for a show, and a local friend recommended The Ranch House. We sat on the patio, which was nice. (I'm a sucker for twinkly lights.) Our server was friendly, helpful, and attentive. I ordered the grilled chicken and avocado sandwich with a baked potato and Calabacitas. Everyone at the table also ordered a green chili cornbread muffin. Portion sizes were big and everything tasted great. read more

The Ranch House offered a top tier experience! The food, the service, the vibe, everything was great! We got there on time for Happy Hour which meant $8 strawberry margaritas and some super yummy $7 potato skins served with bacon, cheddar, chives, sour cream, and their delicious BBQ ranch. I did a build your own buffalo burger as my dinner. For my toppings I did Swiss cheese, grilled onions, and the smoked crimini mushrooms. It definitely fulfilled my burger craving and the fries it came with were good as well. My boyfriend got the Ranch House platter and it came with sooo much food! There was Brisket, pork, sausage, and 2 baby back ribs for the meats. The sides consisted of green chile slaw, BBQ beans, and my favorite the green chile cornbread muffin. They provided us with their special BBQ sauces in mild and hot. I personally preferred the mild one better, but I liked both. As for the service the only complaint is that we had about a 15 minute wait to be seated, but they did have a nice waiting area so it wasn't a big deal, especially since they had everything decorated for Christmas. We definitely walked out of The Ranch House very full and with very happy bellies. I highly recommend coming here when in Santa Fe! read more

Wow didn't think I'd find a note worthy bbq spot when visiting Santa Fe but yelp steered me here. Almost came here my first night in two but had Italian, tried this for night 2 and WOW. Came for happy hour and enjoyed drinks and an appetizer on a reduced price. Gf had the Buffalo sandwich and I had the ranch platter. The bbq was flavorful and we had so much food that we left with leftovers and enjoyed everything we got. I wasn't crazy for the Cole slaw but that was my only negative mark but plenty of parking great price and service and great portions and flavor! A MUST TRY SPOT read more

Service here was very good! We were immediately greeted. There were a lot of people waiting to be seated and it was about 20-30min wait. The restaurant was clean and service was very quick! Food came out fast and they also had the football game on the TV. The food: I was not very impressed with their BBQ. The ribs were overdone, hardly any meat on them and very dry. Like they had been cooked hours ago and left under a heating lamp. Brisket and pulled pork were ok, bbq sauce too sweet for me. The potato salad and cornbread were really good! Overall it was ok, will probably not be back. read more

Ambiance is great! I like the decor and for the most part the noise level. They are very group and family friendly. Their bathrooms are nice and well kept. The servers are pretty darn good and the food is excellent. I had the creme brûlée and it was so good! The Mac and cheese was excellent! The nachos were a big serving, probably enough for at least 2, maybe 3! They have excellent sorbe!! The only debby downer is there is a wait. A very long wait during peak hours for dinner for sure. So use the get in line app so you won't have to wait during peak hours. read more

I'm so confused about the reviews of this place. The BBQ was pretty terrible. The brisket was super dry and chopped into tiny pieces. The sausage was dry and slightly burned. The potato salad had enormous chunks of potato and was runny. The cole slaw had absolutely zero flavor. Service was fine. We tried it because it had great reviews. I have never felt so misled by Yelp reviews in my life. I'm assuming the people leaving these reviews have never had decent BBQ in their lives. Waste of a meal on our trip. read more

I'd say I went with four people three out of four were very happy with a meal. Unfortunately, I ordered the baked naked gluten-free wings. Need I say they came out burnt beyond. I like the sauce on the side. I don't like them smothered. So they had to remake them, but by the time they served it, everyone finished their meals so I ate alone. We're gluten-free on the menu. They are not that celiac friendly. Of course contamination is a problem here. I think Josh is a great and a lot of his barbecue is very very good so I still recommend this place. read more

I always like to try new restaurants when I travel back home to northern NM (& also frequent my favorites). Located near my (now closed) favorite Italian spot Rustica, this place was pretty darn good! We started off with chips, salsa, and queso (ended up getting two orders). They have happy hour 7 days a week and I ordered the house cab and they ended up charging me for a totally different one at 10.00/glass. As for our food, I ordered the sirloin steak NM style which included rice, beans, and an enchilada. Portion size was decent but I was disappointed that it was not bigger. Mom ordered the sausage plate and she enjoyed it but it was a bit too much sausage for her (greasy). My friends ordered a baked potato, salad, and the other the same identical plate as mine. Overall, great place with a full service bar and the service was excellent. It was busy and a little bit of a wait but not bad. I will definitely be back but the only con about this place is the food is pricey for the portion size (prices aren't bad on paper). Also, make sure if you are ordering from the happy hour menu (did not have to sit at the bar) that they charge you for happy hour pricing. read more

Spent two nights in Santa Fe and ate here both nights. On the first night we split a half rack rib dinner, adding an extra side and two extra ribs. The ribs were perfect, tender with a little cheese. Just wished we ordered an extra muffin because they're cheap and delicious. Second night I had a salad with salmon. Loved that they asked how I wanted the salmon cooked. It was prepared perfectly. Our server, Marissa, was amazing, frequently checking in on us, and even arranging a free dessert. If I lived in Santa Fe I'd need to buy a new wardrobe. The vibe was bustling, I liked that the booth tables were slightly elevated; solid bbq joint atmosphere. read more

This time was in-house. the half chicken. Not bad, actually for the price too. Good smoke on the bird, skin wa intact and good. The BBQ beans are a little under seasoned.

The atmosphere was soft , food was fresh and my waitress Vanessa was amazing! so glad to see her back !!

We were seated quickly and the server was over to us promptly also. Drink order found out they do not serve Diet Coke OR Pepsi. Zero is not a substitute. Ok, no biggie. Tea it is. We asked at the same time as the drink order to bring an appetizer. "No problem." The server returned with drinks and took our order for build your own burgers. Both were ordered "Medium". 10 minutes we waited until I got the server's attention. "The appetizer?" "I'll go check on it." 6-7 minutes after that our server returned with our burgers and NO appetizer. "It hadn't come out yet." "I can bring it when it comes out and speak to my manager to remove it from the bill?" "No, thanks anyway. We'll pass." Ok, On to the burgers........ well done, Both, no pink at all.... And dry...Great. We also asked for Ketchup...... it came when I was half way through my burger. So I finished the well done burger and my wife only got through half. Back comes the server with the check. "Can I bring you desert? There won't be a charge for it?" "Well, ok. How about a slice of this cheesecake?" "Sure, no problem." Off went the server with payment and was back in 2 minutes. 7 minutes later........... No Cheesecake. We left. Worst service ever. read more

Update. I returned. This time, the hostess sat me at a table in the (middle of) the dining room. It's always awkward when dining alone, to sit in the center of a dining room. Here, the booths are elevated. So it's as though you're on display. You are. The food: cheeseburger was remarkable. Onion strings, pungent barbecue sauce, high quality meat, and fresh bun made it an outstanding choice. Most notable is the cornbread here. While the staff forgets to heat it up often, when it is served properly (warm), it's truly breathtaking. The service: odd, odd, odd. I know they're in the city bizarre (Santa Fe), but it's still (barely) America. The waitress stands intentionally 8' away from me, speaks in a faint mumble, almost hoping that I'll go away. Im asking myself, why. My teeth are brushed. I'm wearing ordinary clothes, no maga cap or fur coat. I have to cup my ears to hear her and after receiving the food, she disappears for 25 minutes. I think that this' a great example of an outstanding menu, talented chefs, but servers maybe 2 weeks out of high school or? I'd recommend ordering exactly what I did, but coming in a large group, demanding a booth, and being assertive. read more

We recommend not only to stop in at this consistently good restaurant, but also get the salad with these mouthwatering croutons. Bon Appetit...! read more

Santa Fe, New Mexico Came here on a Monday night at 6:20 as we are staying one night in Santa Fe. The wait is 45 minutes they told me. They have a bar off to the right of the front entrance to the restaurant, but you can only sit at the bar top to order. The booths along the wall are for the restaurant to seat. The menu is pretty impressive. Everything from salmon for $20 to pasta, burgers, salads, and more. It's 6:40 pm and we order our food and ask for a cup of the soup of the day which is corn chowder. We are informed they are out of it. A restaurant that runs out of the soup of the day at dinner time? Very odd. No problem, I'll order a loaded baked potato. Oh wait, they are out of that too. Time for the chef to review his ordering of food to accommodate his guests. I ordered the macaroni and cheese with smoked chicken on the side. The chicken was served warm and was so incredibly tough. I just had to ask for a new side of chicken. They brought it out and what a difference. The chicken was much more tender and hot. Having this new plate of chicken allowed me to give it a much better review. Mac & cheese Was relatively bland. The noodles are cavatappi, and it comes with a seasoned crumb top. The topping was inconsistent with texture. Some of it was very good and flavorful and the other was a very hard, dry breadcrumb. I needed to add salt, pepper and barbecue sauce to the mac & cheese to give it flavor. My husband ordered the same thing and said it was fine. He also ordered the cornbread and said that was absolutely delicious. I did save room for dessert and ordered the apple crisp. It was served in a dish the size of a crème brûlée bowl. It is an oat covered apple crisp with dices of apple and a scoop of Häagen-Dazs ice cream on top. No nuts on this dessert. It could've used a bit more apple, but the flavor overall was very good. I am glad I made this my choice to end the meal. The service was below average. Our waitress was kind. However, she was so quiet we could barely hear her and asked her to often repeat herself. She never came to the table and asked us what we wanted. But more so just stood there and waited for us to talk first. We had to ask for water refills as did the table next to us. If a table asked her for something as she was bringing something to us, she would take our item back to the kitchen to get what the other table asked for, then bring our item back out. It was very odd. She was only able to handle one thing at a time. With all of this said about the restaurant, I will come back. I would like to try different things on the menu. It is a nice environment, that is cozy, and welcoming. The patio looks wonderful and I'd like to try it warmer night. read more

The Ranch House offers a an extensive menu, a large and accommodating dining area with great staff. We have visited the restaurant on a couple of occasions and had good experiences overall. Some things to consider: the bar and adjacent booths/tables have multiple televisions with games for sports fans; the dining area feels comfortable for families, and parking is plentiful. Staff work hard and we've visited at times when we were left to fend for ourselves... it wasn't hard to flag team members for help. Good overall! read more
