   I liked the restaurant before, good food, nice atmosphere, for my Birthday celebration we had very nice waitress last year. This time I am disappointed. I reserved a table a long time in advance with notes saying “To have window seats with view on the front entrance” for a special occasion. We came to the restaurant, we didn’t have a table as requested and reason being that the restaurant is too busy. During the length of our dinner the table we asked the waitress to sit us at, was empty the whole time. The restaurant in general was not full at all. For future bookings hopefully someone read the notes.

   We love Bow Valley Ranche. Our lunch was excellent and we had lovely service. The main room in the restaurant was busy so we were put in a side room which was perfect. My husband has some hearing issues so this was much quieter and we are seated by a window so it was fantastic .

   We went to The Ranche on Boxing Day for a late lunch. We have always had a good experience with both quality of food & service. And although the food was very good today, the service was extremely slow. And it was not busy. We were all disappointed to the degree I'm not sure I'd return.

   Great food with great ambience, can't ask for more. We had the surf n turf, which allowed us to sample a bit of the foods available on the menu. It was delicious and more than enough for two people. The service was nice and friendly, overall a great birthday dinner experience.

   Every part of what we ordered on the set Lunch Menu was wonderful. From the presentation to the taste...it was all amazing. Sarah, our server, was lovely! Can't wait to visit again.

   Overall good. The soup was very tasty but only luke warm! Soup she be served quite hot. We had to ask for the wine list. It was taken away when the cocktails were served. Nice choice of wines. We were a party of seven and starters did not all come at the same time. For overall was excellent.

   We were there for our daughter in law’s birthday and we’re pretty excited to go. There were 6 of us there for lunch and only notified us 90 minutes prior to our reservation they left message that lunch was no longer being served after 2pm and prior to 4pm even though it was not mentioned on the website at the time I made the reservation. I would have thought that I would have been notified 24 hours prior to when they emailed me to see if I was still coming. Snack menu was incredibly limited. Then when I sat down I thought the lid from the table was going to come off. I mentioned this to our server and she didn’t seem to be too concerned. Didn’t see her too much, water/drink glasses were not refilled during our “lunch”. Drink service was very slow, dishes from the snack menu were not cleared even when the, (again) limited dessert menu was being served. They only had one very old tasting Baked Alaska, and not sure how fresh was the charcuterie board because that wasn’t great either. Like I say, very disappointed because my wife and her friends meet there quite often.
