Hero Ranch Kitchen was created by two friends that had a very simple idea. “Lets create a space and a place that we would want to go to.” “Lets serve our favorite dishes…whether it's the finest Wagyu steaks, or a 1lb burger…lets create a menu that we can all enjoy. Let's use the best ingredients and sell the best wines in the industry at prices that are always fair and approachable.” Let's build our restaurants in a neighborhood community where we can all enjoy each other’s company. HRK is a reflection of our life's greatest hits!” We hope you will enjoy.

We believe wine is better with food & food is better with wine. A perfect pairing is an experience everyone should enjoy..often. Our unique approach to food and wine means we are "wine first". We first curate the wine list which includes 65+ wines by the glass and then design a food menu that specifically complements the wine. The kitchen is led by Executive Chef Julian Silvera who spent his early culinary career in restaurants in his native NYC. He then took his talents to Florida's Knife and Spoon, where he helped garner a coveted Michelin star. Chef Julian is passionate about sourcing hyperlocal ingredients & has a strong focus on sustainability. Our service team includes ten sommeliers and is proud to offer guests more than 700 wines by the bottle. We are a casually elegant wine bistro open Tues-Sat 5PM to 10PM. The Champagne Bar is open daily noon-10PM. Children are welcome on the patio. The Wine Bistro and Champagne Bar seats adults only. Live Music Nightly.

    Very adorable, historical and cozy place. Loved the interior decoration and atmosphere here. Food is pretty good. We ordered the starter Tako “Escargot” and two entrees Loco moco and omelet. But our entrees arrived before the starter, which is weird, because we’d expect to have starter first. Overall loved the vibes here.

    We love eating at Hero Ranch! Our server was Brianna and she was wonderful with us. Although it was busy, she checked in on us as much as she could. The food was excellent and came out quickly. We love sitting outside because they keep on the heaters and I love the ambiance.

    We were early for our reservation and as soon as we walked in we were helped by the staff, I do appreciate the time they take to check on their guests, and if they need anything else. The crab cakes were off the hook! And our lasagna dish as well as the fettuccine we had was delicious. Not to mention their bread! Super fresh, soft and yummy!!! Thank you

    It was a pleasure to have Christmas Eve dinner at La Mere Michelle. We appreciated the warm, friendly, welcome when we arrived. The French Onion Soup was delicious, complete with a thick layer of cheese. The Chicken Tarragon entree was the best I've ever had with a Tarragon reduction that was divine. My family member ordered the Chicken Forestiere with wild mushroom cream, also delicious. Both entrees had plenty of sauce unlike some restaurants that only provide a few tablespoons, were served with green beans and scalloped potatoes, and were pleasantly filling. We didn't leave hungry. A slice of chocolate hazelnut cake with excellent flavor finished the meal.
