I've been coming here since I was a kid, & being in my 30's now coming here it still holds the same outstanding flavorful food quality. My go to order is their grilled chicken breast, or their tri tip 7 oz with the side of sweet mash & Mac n cheese -- it hits every time! I am obsessed with their sweet mash it's a must have for me. I highly advise you to ask for the garlic bread rolls with bbq sauce on the side 10/10 !!! The service at this location was very pleasant. From the host, to our server, everything was top tier each time we visited. The location is extremely well up kept, clean, & everyone works & moves very organized. I love that. I work in restaurant management so seeing this when I go out is a green flag for me. Will definitely be back soon! Parking tip: located next door there is a parking garage for the restaurant, I believe its 90 minutes, or just restricted to only wood ranch grill customers, either way its FREEEEE:) read more

Came here after the movies and overall I'll rate my experience 4/5. I had a really good time sitting at the bar. The service was cool, however they did mess up my order and I was already starting to eat. They said I had to give up the other plate even though the salmon was cooked wrong it still was looking satisfying!!! The potatoes were better though than my new salmon plate. It was pretty busy for a Sunday but the service was pretty fast at the bar. It's clean inside and modern. Right next to the fun stuff in Burbank. I will come back here again. ! -Marshay D. read more

Showed up on a Friday night during the World Cup, and the place was packed. There was no seating available without a long wait, so we ended up eating at the bar. The bartender "Myra" was great and the people around us were pleasant, which helped the experience. The food itself was just OK, and one of the dishes came with a burnt corn on the cob. For the prices they charge, the quality didn't match. I'm not sure how this place has four stars -- it feels more like a 2.5 to 3-star experience.It's disappointing because the employees were genuinely nice, but the food didn't live up to the hype. read more

Chain restaurants always get a bad rap- but been here a few times and always leave satisfied. The food is consistent and service is always nice and attentive. The complimentary bread is delicious. Good quality meats and solid sides. Pretty good Mac n cheese side (only thing missing are some breadcrumbs and a hot skillet). Good prices for large portions. Located in downtown Burbank and always busy on a weekend night. read more

Wood Ranch Burbank - Ribs and tri tip plates - American Near Me - Burbank, California

Consistently good BBQ! The ribs here fall off the bone and the tritip is so good. The mac and cheese is super gooey and pretty yum and the peanut coleslaw is also very good. I really enjoy the bread here I hate to admit but it's just so good fresh out of the oven. It can get busy on weekends with up to an hour wait but usually it's no more than 15-20 min. There's a parking structure directly behind the restaurant and also another across the street. They have a full bar with TVs if you want to catch the game and patio seating as well. Service is usually pretty attentive and they are good with beverage refills. read more

After doing some shopping in Burbank, we stopped by Wood Ranch for lunch. We weren't terribly excited about being seated in the bar area, but it appeared that there weren't any tables open in the main part of the restaurant. The service was excellent. Our server was professional, polite, and attentive, and the busser and the runner. Our meals arrived hot and as ordered. The only reason for -1 star is the tri-tip in the salad was primarily fat and gristle - almost no edible meat. read more

We came here as a large party to celebrate a birthday. We could not have had worse service. Our server was incredibly rude, dismissive, and acted like he hated his life. He never asked if anyone wanted additional drinks, never checked in with us on our meals, and ignored our birthday guest, failing to bring a small dessert and candle despite it being a standard to do so. We will NOT return here. So incredibly disappointing. Mind you there was an automatic 18% gratuity charge as well. Shame on this server and this restaurant for hiring such rude and uncaring servers. read more

Had a great experience at Wood Ranch! The food was delicious, and our waiter Josh was fantastic. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Great service really made the experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend asking for Josh if you visit. Jenny the manager also came by to check on us making sure our food was great. Greatly appreciated her hospitality. read more

Wood Ranch for dinner during the week means less wait time. They are always super busy on Fri-Sun , so if you can, come during the week. We sat outside this time which had some nice ceiling heating lamps that did the job. The free garlic rolls were warm , soft, and buttery: never fails. We ordered the killer wings for our appetizer- QTY 10 and it came with some carrots and celery. They were drenched in a tangy buffalo sauce. For our entrees we ordered the classic burger and the BBQ combo - 2 items. We went with the BBQ ribs and tri tip. This also comes with two sides. It's a pretty good deal for the amount of food you get. Btw you can order your burger "protein style" with no bun. I like their coleslaw here too- it has peanuts and is more of a vinegar base than mayo base. It was my sisters bday and they brought out a sundae with chocolate sauce, whipped cream and sprinkles! read more

I went here on December 21, 2022 on my dad's b-day .I ordered the beef ribs if I remember correctly. They looked kinda burnt. Tasted a little burnt too but that's because they're pecan wood-smoked. It came with two signature sides. The sides were original peanut coleslaw and Idaho baked potato. The peanut coleslaw was unlike other coleslaw I've had, the peanut made it crunchy. The Idaho baked potato was soft and the butter made it even better. Service was fine, pretty average. Lighting was great because of the warm yellow fixtures. It was warm inside. read more

Down during the week and got seated right away. The food was delicious and tasty. The rolls are delicious. The restaurant soon filled up and was a little noisy. We received the bill and the server came back with that lovely tablet. She processes my card and hard coded 20% to the bill. The server held that tablet tight and it was hard to enter any information. She mentioned that she can't leave it on the table. I u sweat and not leaving it on the table but I felt like a kid that I couldn't even touch it just press the buttons. I was a little awkward. But love the food. read more

I've been coming to Woodranch for well over 10 years and it's continued to be one of my favorite chain restaurants. You can't go wrong with anything you choose but my go to order is the fire roasted half chicken with the French fries and mac&cheese. The fries are perfectly crispy, the Mac has just the right amount of cheese and the chicken is always so juicy. The bbq chopped salad is also great if you're looking for something lighter. The dining room is big and an adjacent bar which is pretty sizable and a great outdoor patio so you have a ton of options for seating. The service is excellent and the staff are friendly and on top of things. I'd recommend this for anything with family or casual outings. Don't forget to ask for the garlic rolls! read more

We have really soured on this pace over the last few visits. It used to be a go-to, but quality has really slipped and management is completely worthless. Not sure what's happened with the kitchen, but our food has been inconsistent, and items are not prepared to requested temps. Last visit, we watched the store manager have personal conversations with 5 employees at the hostess stand while the place was an absolute mess. Not sure we will be returning. read more

Well this really makes me sad to review this low on a place I had been wanting to try for a while now. I had been craving a ribeye steak this week and we finally went and I chose Wood Ranch. We went to an early dinner after a movie around 4:30ish so the wait was not bad at all. The restaurant was nice and quiet which I liked. We had already seen the menu so we knew what we wanted to order. We decided to share the ribeye with loaded mashed potatoes and a beef rib with a side of mac and cheese. We first started with the artichoke and spinach dip and that was really tasty. Not too long after we finished the appetizer we got our plates. The steak looked really delicious. We ordered it medium. Which was cooked perfectly. The steak was very delicious but could have used a bit more salt and pepper for my taste and didn't seem to be as juicy of a steak as I'm used too. The mashed potatoes were a little too dry for me, not enough butter or cream. They were supposed to be loaded and all it had was cheese and bacon. The beef rib was delicious but I forgot to order with no barbecue sauce and I felt like it had way too much much sauce also for my liking. But it was cooked perfectly and the meat would just fall off the bone. I'm glad I came in to try but it wasn't what I expected. read more

We have been here many times and it's so much better now that they take reservations! We had stopped going there due to the long wait times and mixed seating results now it's a pleasure. We had excellent service when we came a couple months ago and I wish I could remember the server's name, because he was excellent. This time we had Gitari, and he was also excellent. Hope I spelled his name correctly. Since we had extraordinarily bad service the night before at a similar type of restaurant, it was a pleasure to come here the next day and have everything go really well. Further proof that the service makes all the difference in the world for how you experience any restaurant. We started with fried onions, which are always amazing. We each ordered something completely different for the main course and both were delicious. We shared a dessert and I asked for a modification and Gitari said "I got you" and indeed he did! The peach crisp was so much better after that modification. Anything we asked, Gitari made it happen and his enthusiastic professionalism truly enhanced the meal and elevated it. Thanks for the extraordinary service and can-do approach. It was the perfect antidote to the family dinner the previous night at a restaurant that has gone too downhill to mention. read more

Stopped by for a takeout order and wanted to give a shout out to 2 employees who made the 15 min wait so pleasant. Luke, who took my phone order, was courteous and accommodating. I had a custom order and without missing a beat, he made sure everything was delivered. Paul, who took my drink order at the bar while waiting for my takeout, was also kind and pleasant. There was a miscommunication when ordering my drink. Paul immediately corrected and served my drink order, all with a smile the entire time. Incredible service from both gentlemen. I mean, the food is already great, but the service just takes the dining or take out experience to another level. read more

BBQ was dry. Food not worth the high price. Came with a small group and they would not split bill for all the parties.

I always come to this place with my family it's kinda the perfect spot for when you want some bbq food. I always get the same order which is the chicken breast which is always perfectly cooked and delicious with the Mac n cheese so good and the coleslaw with no peanut it's not even like a coleslaw which makes it so good it's like but shredded up greens with an amazing dressing it's like a salad I love it and the service is always great everyone who serves me goes above and beyond and is really nice keep doing you wood ranch read more

I always enjoy their garlic rolls! Service is always friendly and food is always hot. We were sat in the bar area, but it wasn't loud or rowdy. They had the games on the TV and not many people were shouting like they would in a sports bar, so I really enjoyed that aspect. Their tri-tip was a little too cooked, but it was flavorful. The chicken sandwich was spicy from what my friend told me, delicious, but had a big punch afterwards. I will frequent again! read more

Was able to make a reservation days ahead and table was ready, once we arrived. Food was well proportion. Service was great.

I've been here several times. I usually get ribs. I was especially impressed with the tender brisket on our last visit. I love the garlic rolls. I'm writing today because we ordered food for a World Cup viewing party and I was especially impressed with their takeout setup. The hostess was friendly and helpful and efficient. They went through every item in our order as they packed it up. Best of all, the food was delicious at home. read more

This place is popular for a reason! It's a good 'ole family restaurant. Food is decent, large venue, bustling with families, servers, guests. It honestly just feels like an extremely big family gathering - big-ish portions, lots of meat and greasy food, extremely bustling and somewhat chaotic in a homey sense. Lol. It's not one of those high end dining spots but, again, has its charm. The tri tip is good. The bbq brisket is on the dry side so I wouldn't get those again. Mac and cheese are great. Mashed potatoes are ok and roasted broccoli was on the saltier side. The garlic bread is amazing. read more

GOOD FOOD AND SERVICE ====================== I am not sure why I always forget about Wood Ranch, but they have pretty good food. My husband and I popped on May 10th, the day before Mother's Day, to beat the Mother's Day rush. It seemed like everyone else had the same idea, but luckily we were the first ones there when they opened at 11:30 a.m.. I thought I was going to order a salad, but I broke down and ordered five baby back ribs with corn on the cobb. It was great. My husband loved his bbq tri tip sandwich and au jus. read more

Great food (especially for sharing) and spacious indoor and outdoor dining space. Definitely a popular spot for all ages. I came for dinner on a Saturday night around 7pm in a group of 4; we were told to wait 45 minutes to an hour so we went to walk around the area. Then we got a text after 30 minutes that our table was already ready. They use an internal waitlist system (not Yelp or other waitlist services) so you can't really see how many parties are ahead of you. Needless to say, they do a fast job seating, so don't let the wait time discourage you. We were thrilled by the refillable (?) garlic bread buns (?)! They were very tasty and garlicky. We ordered salads to share and a combo meat plate (comes with two meats and two sides). The ribs were delicious, with a great BBQ sauce - would recommend it. We also had brisket which was also very tasty. They gave us only a few ounces of the brisket for the combo plate, so if you want a larger portion of meat then the full servings would probably be best. Finally, drinks were delish!! We had a spicy marg and peach sour cocktail. VERY concentrated and tart flavors, which is how I like it. Great service too. read more

I've been coming here since they opened up. Back then the staff was professional. Now, WTF, you make a reservation and they don't have a table reserved. Then they're stingy with the fucking bread, there's 4 people at the table and you're gonna bring a basket with 3 rolls? I don't think customers need to be fighting over the bread rolls. Then when you go to mention that's there's 4 of you, the server, like a ninja, is gone. When they finally appear again, they offer one person a refill, but not the other two people that clearly need refills as well. What the fuck is going on in this place? Are there budget cuts? Is the food good? It use to be. Their side portions have always been skimpy, but the food was at least good. These days, depending on which crew is working, the food could be mediocre to mediocre. The half chicken is dry, the burger patties are huge, but has no flavor. What is that about? Why are all the desserts vegan and gluten free? The Oreo cookie crunch ball thingy was good, but not amazing. Buttercake had a weird after-taste, but I can see some people liking it. I think I'll be taking a break from this place for a while. Hopefully they turn it around. read more

2 1/2 stars- "One and Done for Me" We came here on a recommendation from someone in our group. The good news -- this place does accommodate larger parties (six or more), which made things convenient. Our waitress Kendra was assigned to us and she was an absolute rock star -- friendly, patient, and really worked hard to take care of our table. Now for the not-so-great part: the food. I ordered the burger with bacon, medium. There was a noticeable wait time, but I was fine with that if the food came out right. Unfortunately, it didn't. My burger arrived without any condiments -- no mayo, no ketchup, nothing. Just plain dry. The fries were borderline cold, which didn't help. Then came the real disappointment: the burger itself. I asked for medium, but it came out well done -- so overcooked that it fell apart with every bite. Completely dry, no flavor left. Would I come back? Nope. This was a one and done for me. Kendra was the highlight of the experience, but the food quality just didn't deliver for me. read more

Just placed an order through Door Dash. There were few things I needed that weren't in the app. Sugar for the tea, butter, etc. So I called and was so happy someone actually answered. Most places don't. I spoke to Jasmine and she was so sweet. Told me she'd take care of it for me. Once I sent the order, I called again and spoke with Ally. She was also very sweet. Said it was all sitting out waiting for the order to come in. So, I'd like to thank them for their kindness and understanding. Can't wait for the food to get here. These 2 young ladies definitely made the experience wonderful and are a great representation for your company. read more
