In Short – The Southwestern-hued interior plays off the restaurant's name: horses, hats and lassos decorate the comfortable space. A well-stocked bar surrounded with leather barstools sits near the front while a quaint patio offers a secluded place to dine out back. The restaurant's traditional tables, set with sophisticated Western charm, set a pleasant tone. The menu explores the breadth of Western cuisine: crispy cactus spears fried in Shiner Bock, a 22-ounce bone-in ribeye and spice-rubbed pork tenderloin. –
Editor's Tips
- Look Good:
- This restaurant attracts the date crowd, so attire tends to be dressy casual, with some comfortably sporting jeans.
- What To Drink:
- In keeping with the style of the restaurant, the majority of the wine selection comes from Texas vineyards.
Love this place

Some of the best food in austin and some of the friendliest folkz
Horrible Place
by WilliamCarol at Citysearch
Food has too much grease, and too much seasoning. When i went there last I almost fell because the stairs had a piece of rubber that i tripped on. Bar staff is extreamly slow, and so is the wait staff. Menus are always greasy and table have crumbs on them.
- Pros: Example: best croissants in town
- Cons: Bad Service.
Great food Great Fun Great Place to take your UT students to when visiting
by saintbernardlover at Citysearch
We recently took a weekend to visit our daughter who is a UT student and we took her and 3 of her friends to Mesa Ranch South. Incredible food and service! We all ordered different entrees and shared bites so we could sample a variety of dishes and they were all fabulous. But the best part was the Filet of Mignon which I ordered - truly melt in your mouth, tender, well seasoned, beef. The Live Music was a plus and not over-powering which allowed us to visit with our daughter and her friends. I know my daughter will no longer object to our visits when she knows that a dinner at Mesa Ranch is thrown in with the deal :)
- Pros: Perfect ambience, Fabulous Food, Ample Parking and great Service
- Cons: None
POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE
by mjwross at Citysearch
After several years of patronage, one night in June, I left my cell phone at the restaurant. The help stole the phone - which was confirmed. When I was unable to retrieve my phone, I would have at least expected the manager to offer some gratuitous token. None was made and I have not been back since. In Impact this week, the names of the owners were mentioned. I was impressed with the owner's father being prior owner of the Barn. We used to visit there all the time, (yes, I am an Austenite). So, I called Ray and spoke to him and let him know that I no longer was a patron and why. He indicated he wished he had known about the situation earlier and failed to offer anything in order to have my patronage returned. I was floored. Yes, I left my phone. And, no I am not out for a free drink. Yet, a glass of wine on the house would have me back. Things happen in the service oriented business, you must make the customer happy if you want return business. It is sad that they will never see me or my friend circle again.
- Cons: Lack of customer service
mesa south
by cacophony123 at Citysearch
mesa ranch just moved into my neighborhood a couple months ago. at first i was a little sad to find out that one of my favorite asian restaurants had closed to make way for this new place, but since mesa ranch has opened, ive found myself frequenting the same building even more than before. my favorite thing ive had on the menu so far is the ancho pork tenderloin, its wrapped in bacon and comes with some slightly spicy mashed potatoes, really good. it does seem somewhat empty the times that ive been there, but i hope its just because its new and still getting a footing because its a nice addition to the area.
