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.

    Ordered bb ribs and the meat was so dry, really not tasty at all. Very disappointing. We ordered several appetizers including ahi tower, crispy sushi bites and the grilled octopus. Ahi tower was salty, crispy sushi bites were meh and we didn’t like the very thick rice cake (?) under the fish, and grilled octopus could have been more tender. Won’t be returning.

    Our wine arrived a little slowly, likely due to the separation of the bar from our dining room. Otherwise, our experience was outstanding. Very friendly and service-oriented staff, excellent food, great atmosphere, and extraordinary value for the wines.

    This is normally our favorite Bay Area restaurant and last night we brought 2 couples, one from Daly City and one from Palo Alto. We usually sit in the same table and enjoy the fabulous servers that help us. Last night there were 2 tables that were extremely noisy close to us. We understand there's no way a restaurant can control a loud patron but it definitely affects the enjoyment. The appetizer's were excellent as they always are, But 3 of the enteree's were dry and not as I had promised our guests. Jasmine our server was excellent and offered to comp the 3 meals, one of our guests is an investor in several restaurants and refused the kind offer and just asked to inform the chef. We'll definitely be back but probably with lower expectations.

    The server was amazing with her light purple Hair. She was so informative and delightful! She made the experience what it was. The wine and food were also great, as well as the drinks!
