    Celebrating milestones- free
    Lin F.

    Full menu at Saloon tables and booths. Waitress and food runners really top notch. Full menu from Restaurant and also a bar menu too. Arrived at 6 pm for line dancing lessons on 3 step cha cha cha 6:30 and 7:15 another dance lesson. 8 pm live band played excellent tunes. Dance floor lively with female youngsters and older gentlemen guiding them during two step dances. Majority of the ladies knew the complicated steps. I should have paid more attention to footloose dance steps, my last dance lesson adventure. Even though I didn't make it out to the floor that often, I very much enjoyed watching and vibing with the other voyeurs. Food- excellent- 150$ minimum for our two top table. Beers on tap cold and crisp. Scarlet O Hara's with juicy limes. Parking lot free and large unless you want valet 8$. Next time, I will order a heavier dish, since I did not realize we get to keep the table the whole night! Felt safe and secure from walking from the parking lot, in the saloon, & leaving- no crazy hands or remarks- all gentlemen inside there. Maybe because it's an older crowd and people seemed to know each other- the booths, tables, stuck to themselves and their own guests. That being said- bring your own possé and enjoy the views. If you want a more aggressive crowd, head to stampede by Temecula- my other spot after the wineries' delights are partaken. I will be back, maybe I'll even get rhinestone cowboy boots. Attire- boots, jeans, corset tops, Tatoo, long hair if female. Some ladies had flutter sleeve v neck tops with flirty swinging skirts. All ages of females- from 20's to 70's and all very agile and mobile. Males: jeans, boots, button down shirts. Some had t shirts and gym shoes. Some looked like ranchers w belt buckles, Stetson hats, lived in but nice clean boots. Older souls, meaning not too many people had their cell phones out and staring downward. All eyes were up and enjoying the band, line dancers, and each other. I need some more friends to bring with me, but I will definitely come back for round 3. This was my second time here, first time as the primary instigator. Last time, someone else planned it and we had a booth. Both times 5 stars. You can walk in and reserve a table or advance reservation.

    Dance lesson

    4 star for the dancing and 2 stars for the food. We made reservations for a 40th birthday. We've eaten at the restaurant side and have always had a good experience. Our server was great and we had no issues there. We participated in the 6:30 dance lesson which was lots of fun but very crowded. The food was very disappointing. Everything we ordered from the bar menu was so bad and very overpriced for the quality. The chicken wings were tiny, the nachos were lacking toppings and the steak was more like ground beef, the grilled yellowtail tacos were lacking flavor. Anything we ordered off the restaurant menu was the quality we expected, except the lobster Mac and cheese only had flake of lobster. When we have ordered it in the past it had large chucks. Next time I think we will skip out on the ranch for special occasions and find somewhere with better quality food.

    Let me preface this review by first stating I've never heard of "The Ranch", didn't know it existed, and obviously have never been there before. We were in the area and some friends invited us to "The Ranch". My husband was concerned because he was in shorts and we were informed there were "a lot of rules". We decided to give it a try anyway to catch up with our friends. Getting in was no problem. You're asked if you want to go to the saloon or the restaurant. We wanted the saloon. Security checked my bag, let us in, paid the $15 each cover charge and we found our friends. Unbeknownst to me, there was a group of 30 of us in rows of bar tables with 3 seats at each. It looked kinda weird to have only 3 stools at each table but I didn't try to think too much about it even though my husband and I couldn't sit together. Not long after I sat down, I found out the tables have to be reserved with a $100 minimum per table. You are not allowed to move the bar stools around and must keep only 3 at each table. Since there were so many of us, we were standing at some of the tables to meet some of the people we didn't know in the group when we were asked by security to "sit down". How old are we? I paid to come in here to be told like a child to sit down? I was over it. Don't get me wrong, the place is well done. But don't plan on relaxing and enjoying yourself because you will be told where to sit, how much to spend, and probably when to use the bathroom. To boot, the service was terrible. I will never step foot in here again unless there is a full restructuring. After returning home, I read the other reviews and realized I'm not the only one. Do not patronize this place! They don't deserve your hard earned money.

    A fun place for Line Dancing. They give 2 free lessons at 6:30pm and 7:30pm which are quick but fun (basic knowledge of dance steps help). Limited areas to sit without a reservation. 2 full bars. Security and staff throughout. Most people know every dance just by knowing the song title. That's amazing! Live bands on certain nights so check the event page of their website. They have family day on Sunday to bring your kids. Cover charge - $10

    This place is great. I love line dancing and didn't know such a club exists. It was my first time here. We got in for free cause we ate at the Ranch Restaurant next door. Regular coverage fee is $10/person. The sound walls are great cause you can't hear any of the loud music at the restaurant next door. They had tables and bar seating. You can't sit at the tables unless you order food and might have a minimum spending but not sure, since we didn't inquire. We sat at the bar seats along the walls. Apparently, their burgers are great but we didn't' get a chance to try since we just finished dinner. Will definitely come back to try the burgers. It was packed on a Saturday night. They had a live band playing country music and almost everyone knew all the dance moves on the dance floor. It was a bit intimidating but fun to watch. We were asking around and apparently they offer dance lessons at 6:30pm every Thursday to Sunday. So I plan on coming back for some dance lessons. You can probably also youtube for the dance moves and practice at home. LOL After the band finished for the night, they had a DJ playing dance music. Some were also choreographed. We stayed for about an hour. At the end, they played a few songs that I knew the dance moves for so I joined in! I will definitely be back. We didn't receive any service but security was nice and so was the check in staff up front. Valet parking or free self parking.

    The Ranch Saloon is my favorite place to dance in Orange County!! I've been going here for the last three years and last weekend was my second birthday I celebrated there. The staff were so kind, courteous, and helpful with set up and also throughout the evening. Michael, our waiter, was awesome and made sure everyone had everything they needed. My friends were able to dance the night away and enjoy themselves! Donny made our drinks and they were stellar! Food was great, music was Brad Johnson and the Killin Time Band (the best country band!) - just an incredible time! I highly recommend making this your spot for any night you want to dance, have great drinks, and enjoy some great music!

The tuna and toppings were okay but the crispy rice tasted like fried fair food almost with the texture of a rice cake. Hopefully, their other dishes are better.

When making reservations a $25 deposit is required per person but will be applied to your bill day of visit. The hostess was very kind upon check in and took us to the back where the 46 door is. She provided us a code and explained the time limit along with house rules. We were then told to knock on the door and proceed with the experience. Kudos to the owner as this is the only speakeasy in the OC that has a true speakeasy feel entrance. They had a gentleman open the peephole and ask for the entry code. Once we said the code we entered a really cool mine shaft area. The attention to detail was on point and I was impressed! We were then taken upstairs to a private bar where there are four tables of four so a max of 16. This makes sense as to why reservations are hard to come by. The only ding about seating is you are sat with strangers it is not a private table. Luckily we had a fun older couple at our table so it made the conversation more lively. Otherwise don't go here with an expectation of an intimate/ private date night. They also offer a limited food menu but looked very promising. However, we were here for a night cap so just dabbled in drinks. The bartender had a seasonal menu of 4 cocktails he created. He explained the drinks and then had us try each one with a straw. We then placed our order based on what we liked. He did say if we were not a fan he could create us our own personal cocktail as well. The old fashion he created was phenomenal! Overall, a cool little spot in the OC. Do wish they were open later as they do close at 11pm on Friday and Saturday.
