A farewell letter from The Ranch Steakhouse & Tavern at The Ranch
Dear valued family, friends, employees, and guests of The Ranch.
It is with humble gratitude and a heavy heart that we announce the closing of The Ranch Steakhouse and The Tavern at The Ranch Restaurant. This has been a very difficult and emotional decision, and we are saddened to say goodbye, and after 2 ½ years, we’ll be closing our doors on Wednesday, May 14th, as we have decided it’s necessary to move on to the next chapter of our life, even though a part of us will yearn for what The Ranch represented to us. We hope you felt joy as we shared our stories on the wall of our past and present, intertwined with our love of food while trying to be charitable to our community.
We would like to thank our Wonderful staff, past and present, for being such an integral part of our business and for helping us to provide so many wonderful experiences to our guests over the years. Restaurant work is not easy. It takes commitment, thick skin, and at times, a sense of humor. Your love for The Ranch and your efforts haven’t gone unnoticed, you’ve shown humility, grace, love, and dedication. There are no words that can begin to express the love and gratitude we feel for our staff that worked so hard to keep the vision alive. It is so rare to find such a committed, hardworking, and friendly staff anywhere. We became a family. We are so grateful for the love and tremendous effort and you are all amazing.
And of course, we give immeasurable thanks to everyone who has dined with us, whether you've been dining with us for years or just now found us. We are grateful for your continued support and loyalty; you are the reason we are truly humbled and honored to have served you. You trusted us with your most significant and treasured life events: birthday celebrations, graduations, weddings, receptions, community events, and many other completely wonderful memories.
The Ranch gave us all a place to feel at home and share our genuine love for our community.
However, as much as we love seeing you walk through our doors, this is a bittersweet choice and a most difficult needed decision, to say the least.
Our Tri–community is so special to us. With welcoming neighbors, support from other businesses in town, support from our local schools and community organizations and a place to nurture one’s dreams, it has truly been an honor to live and serve here.
Though our Dream for the Ranch is ending, we hope and pray for the future and what is to come. A Big Thank you to our community and the many individuals that always stood up for us, not only as a business but as two owners that are only human, making mistakes along the way. You stood by us and that means more than the world to us, truly and deeply humbled.
Once again, our deepest gratitude with our very best and sincerest wishes,
Yours Sincerely and with so much love,
Brian & Kimberly
