Rancho Steak House in Fareham

We used their takeaway option for us and our two guests. We had two steaks and two burgers. The food was hot, delicious and well packed. The service was also friendly and efficient. We will eat with Rancho again soon.

Tuesday night out for dinner with my sister's . Lovely relaxed atmosphere service was great and the food was superb. Steak cooked to perfection .

Went here for my mums birthday and was not disappointed fantastic place. Great atmosphere. Staff were lovely and the food was amazing. Highly recommend to anyone. We all have a great time. Definitely be visiting again soon.

On Feb 8th 2024 I bought a take out meal costing £46.27. The meal arrived and the driver took £50.00 from my carer. I was not made aware that my card details had been kept on a database and would be used automatically the next time I ordered roughly a year after my previous order. I contacted the restaurant later the same evening informing them of what took place. I was told the driver had gone home but the manager would speak to them and phone me the following evening. No such call was made and despite trying to contact them through Paypal I have not had any response from them at all. These people have taken £96.24 from me for a meal that was also far from value for money. What a rip off!

What a disaster! We pre-booked a table for 15 people and were the only customers upon arrival. Drinks were slow to arrive, and the food service was atrocious. Our table could view the service/kitchen are and it seems like they were prioritising delivery orders over those in the restaurant. To add insult to injury, another table entered the restaurant and appeared to be friends of the staff working there. We waited 1.5 hours for any starters to arrive. They mixed up chicken and meat dishes, and served the side orders of garlic bread with the starters. We ended up eating in 3 separate groups on our table due to the terrible service. The main courses were equally confused by the staff - so the same result where we ate separately. I have given a rating of 2 instead of 1 as my steak was pretty good when it eventually arrived. The final insult was upon the group checking accounts the next day; one of the group was charged twice on their card. They even had the audacity to add the advertised service charge to the meal. We will not be back!

Birthday celebration, food was good however service charge was added to the bill. We discussed this with the waiting staff and was told that the management kept all service charge and that any tips left on the table we’re also taken by management!

With Renchos being our goto steak restaurant a 10 years ago, we decided to go here for anniversary meal as family. Was a bit of a shock. Only 2 waiters in the restaurant and were slow to get drinks. We used meerkat meals for discount and it took a while to be assured they accepted it. English did not seem to be first language but managed. Food was ok but portions did not seem great as they used to be.. overall it was ok but not like it used to be

Late booking for a Saturday in August. Never been here before so was cautious. Steak was tender and perfectly cooked. Sauce was tasty. Staff prompt & polite. What more can you ask for? Maybe stock alcohol free lager?

My wife and i have visited on more than one occasion. Whilst they also provide limited vegetarian meals that suit my wife, I am not enamoured with their steaks which of course is the raison d'etra of their business. Both the texture and taste is not the best which I put down to wet curing perhaps also over too short of period. I usually buy steaks from a butcher that are dry cured for a period of six weeks which melt in the mouth. It's a shame but it's not what I expect.

The steak was of such low quality braising may be its only use. The alcohol free cocktails were ok but I was glad they were 2 for 1. My chorizo sausage I ordered for a starter was a breakfast sausage with paprika sprinkled on the plate. See picture for reference. Overall I felt embarrassed, hungry and ripped off.

We booked online for a 6pm dinner and got a 25% discount straight away. A few cocktails, nice bottle of wine and three lovely steaks. Service was courteous and attentive and it was all quite faultless. It's local to us, so we will be there again. Thank you.

Supposed to Be family celebration Thank you for ruining a 75th birthday YOU Didn’t even let us know you were SHUT even though we’d personally come in and made the booking and even left our number ABSOLUTELY !!!!! No customer service at all !!!!!!!!

had a family party of 8. we all had a lovely meal with 2 bottles of wine included. everyone was happy with no complaints. the 2 course lunch menu was very nice and reasonably priced. very tasty steaks. maybe some mustard would have been nice.

Lovely night with family. Did and Service very good. Welcome very good. Only one issue churros were a tad too crispy for my liking

We had really good meal here ,I had surf & turf & partner fillet steak .Both were cooked to our asking . I had ribs to start which were very tasty with lots of meat . The service was good & friendly & restaurant had a nice vibe . We found it good value for money too , we even got a free shot of our choosing at the end . All in all a very pleasant meal out , we will return!!

The serving staff were very pleasant, and our food was well cooked and presented. When the bill arrived, it was much larger than we thought it would be. We expected a discount as advertised on line and outside the restaurant, as it was a Tuesday. We questioned the bill, and they recalculated it, giving discount on the meat, not the whole bill as we expected. On checking the bill, we had been charged for service, but there was no mention of this by the staff or on the menus. There were only two of us anyway. When we went to pay, we expressed our displeasure at the mistakes made, and the bill was recalculated again. We then paid, and we were offered a free drink, but we would have preferred to have not had to question our bill, twice. We will not be returning. This was not a good end to my husbands birthday.

Dined on a Wednesday evening and each of us opted for the all you can eat ribs. For the most part these were dry, overcooked and lacking flavour. The waitress was friendly but the rest of the staff less so. When the bill arrived it was clear that the prices in the menu were incorrect and we were directed to a notice on another table indicating the price rise, this was not visible prior to ordering nor had this been communicated to us by the waiter. The increase was small but felt deliberately deceptive. To add further insult a service charge was added to the bill for a party of 3. Would not recommend.

I placed an online order and the system stated delivery would be between 1830 and 1850. It turned up at 1930 and was stone cold

2 of us ate here. Were given an out of date menu with incorrect prices on. Once given new menu, we ordered. Waitress was lovely. Food was not! Starter was cold and undercooked. Main fillet steaks were not fillet steak. Questionable if it was even...

Ordered food on Deliveroo, prawns were undercooked and inedible, garlic bread soggy and calamari over cooked with soggy batter. For the price of the food it couldn’t have got much worse. I’d recommend sticking to the steaks and eating at the restaurant where you can...

This is now my favourite place to eat out, the staff are so friendly, and the food is amazing - the steaks especially are one of the best I’ve had. They beat the high street restaurants so if you normally go to fareham high street...

Booked Rancho for a special day, arrive at restaurant and greeted by a man with the no interest or personality fine start ,I gave my name and said I have booked for 1.30,he told me to help myself to a table.,promptly handed me a menu...

The food here was excellent, we all had steak but some with ribs and prawns. Beautifully cooked and great value. Would definitely visit again.

4 of us ate here, we had rump, rib eye, surf & turf and steak & ribs combo, the food was outstanding, best steak I've eaten, perfectly cooked and well presented. Great choice on the menu and wine was lovely and very reasonably priced. We...

I booked a table on a Friday night for my parents and I to have some dinner. My dad is one of the fussiest eaters going so this menu was perfect for him. All the meals were fresh to order, and so full of flavour....

Absolutely Delicious. Our first try of delivery. We ordered steak & ribs & Caribbean ribs. Steak cooked to perfection. Ribs perfect & the chips were amazing. The whole meal was absolutely delicious. Delivery on time. Great service by all.

Our meal was delivered to the door very quickly and my burger was the best I've ever had. Excellent chips and ribs too. Highly recommend this restaurant and you don't even have to leave home to enjoy their food.

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED !!!!!! Entered the restaurant at around 1530 today (11/06/2022). We were given olives and we ordered quite quickly. After around 50 minutes I was approached and informed that the grill / burner was not working and that was the reason for the delay....

Very delicious food cannot compare to anywhere else, gambas al parilla is one of the best there would highly recommend if you love seafood, steak yummy as well, service was quick. overall great

Best steak I've ever had...❤️❤️ Friendly environment,🌸❤️ Service and food is also good... Will back soon❤️❤️❤️ And the 2 for 1 cocktail 🥰👀

Extremely disappointed. For 3 people there was a service charge added to our bill that we were not made aware of, after they waited for us to leave them a cash tip we then received the receipt for a further service charge tip!! For 3...

The welcome and service we got was really poor, and it was a Thursday night... not very busy at all. Our meals, when they came out, we’re pretty tasty so a good job done in the kitchen

Been looking to go here for a while. We tried an early evening dinner here. It was a Wednesday so we both had the unlimited ribs. Olives were served which were quite tasty whilst we waited and we had drinks which were quite reasonably priced....

I have never experienced such horrible dinner service and underwhelming food all in one location . Our main male waiter in particular was VERY rude , discourteous and simply obnoxious. Imagine a waiter just dropping, I mean literally dropping the dessert spoons on the bare...

The gambas & empanadas starters great. The fillet steak I had was amazingly tender, perfectly cooked. Husband had the all you can eat ribs - again beautifully cooked & tender. No room for dessert but maybe next time. A lovely birthday treat.

Awful. My chateaubriand steak came out chewy twice. There was no apology from the staff when my husbands steak was raw in the middle despite ordering medium . Terrible restaurant, terrible service and with a £90 bill at the end we were gutted we went...

The best steak ever! 2 of our group had the steak trio, 2 of us had steak and rib combo. All our meals were amazing. The service was excellent. The best place to eat in Fareham by far.

First time here, had a table for a group of five. Great food, had the rump steak, very flavoursome, cooked to perfection. Everyone in our group said the same, perfect. Friendly staff who are polite and attentive and not pushy. Combined price for 5 main...

Lovely food. Attentive & friendly staff. Quick service. Went for an early bird Valentine’ day meal, took our young daughter along (no baby sitter!) and had a really enjoyable experience. This is a favourite restaurant of ours and I am so glad that it always...

First ever visit. Very good service and food was lovely. Shame we were the only ones there!! Will be returning on a wednesday evening to eat as many spare ribs that you can!

Had a prawn starter, cooked in their shells. The meat was a little mushy around the edges which could be a number of things but it's not a good thing (probably freezer burn or been in the freezer too long). Got a rare fillet as...

The best I could describe this restaurant is “expensive ok”. Dining room is clean but kind of doesn’t know what it is? Cowboys on one wall and a French bistro painting in the other! Food is looking to be “premium” but quality doesn’t quite get...

I love Ranchos in general. I’ve normally gone to the Southsea one. This time I went to Fareham. Error! I ordered my steak medium rare. It was definitely well done. I ordered a blue cheese sauce. It was grainy and slightly curdled. Overall, ok but...

After friends and family both highly recommending the restaurant we were excited to go. However was a very poor night all round. Drinks were slow, and poorly made. Food was okay, had to send one steak back as was cold in middle. Felt ignored by...

Met friends fur lunch, and the food was great. However, online, advertise a two course lunch menu at £10.95. This wasn't available, so it's the main menu, order your main, and sides are extra, double the price - why advertise a lunch menu? Cocktails, nope,...

My steak was not cooked how I asked for it, which I sent back (something no customer wants to do!) I had the pleasure of watching the kitchen staff shouting about it and it made my evening very uncomfortable. The only redeeming quality was one...

Nice steak but I can’t have any respect for an owner/manager who steals the staffs cash tips! Abhorrent exploitative behaviour and illegal. Cash tips belong to staff. Credit card tips are taken wholly by the restaurant too and not split between staff.

First trip to this steakhouse, great start lovely friendly staff who promptly took our order. After waiting approx 40 mins our starter hadn’t arrived which prompted the waitress to repeat back our order to us which made it obvious it was forgotten about in the...

I have reviewed the restaurant previously and since lockdown we have ordered a few takeaways. The latest delivery was last night for our anniversary. It was all exceptional. I always go for the trio of steaks, rare, and all arrive spot on. One delivery I...

Been to both this branch and the Osbourne Road (Southsea) branch many times and it was previously one of my favourite places to eat. On this occasion they had "just changed the menu" (which was repeated to us a number of times after each mistake)....

The waitress at this chaotic place pointed to a box on the table that responded to an app on your mobile phone. The look on her face when we had no mobile app was one of utter shock. This poor untrained young lady did not...

Second time in 3 months we have had a takeaway and I seemed to be the unlucky one, the meals were great still warm to hot well cooked accept of course mine, last time had a TBone well done and it was more medium to...

Just ordered two burger and chips from Rancho's via just eat - first time I have had food from here. Really quick delivery and great food, much better than other high street restaurants, and reasonably priced. We will definitely visit again.

Every time I’ve tried to order a takeaway from ranchos they’ve cancelled as it said it was about to be delivered, happened more than once and the delivery company have assured me ranchos arrange their own delivery service so have given up with them and...

My family and I ordered a meal through Ranchos and it’s came swiftly, and everything was still warm. We have eaten at Ranchos before and it was cooked at the same standard that it would have been if we ate in. Cannot wait to be...

What a wonderful evening. Three of us been at Rancho Steak House in Fareham on Xmas Eve. We are Rancho Lovers, we been all the ranchos, they all are good, but rancho in Fareham is superb this time. Mouth watering Trio rancho and lomo the...

Delightful evening, customer service and the food was amazing. Very hygienic and perfect environment considering the fact that we are in a global pandemic. Absolutely love the fact that the food comes fast, well cooked especially the stake - unbelievable! Perfect waiting time considering the...

Me and my family went to this restaurant and it was one of our best Christmas Eve’s in our life! The food there was amazing and promising, The service was unexpectedly fast, And overall was a lovely place to visit, Definitely will come here again!...

We booked a table for 2 on Saturday 17 October. Our first impression was a lack of social distancing. My partner was very uncomfortable and we should have left. After a wait our drinks order was taken and from then on it went down hill....

Were to start...... if your a fan of a microwave then this is a place for you! On arrival we were the second customer in the restaurant which was quite suspicious for a Sunday afternoon around 2:30ish. No menus were available due to covid. Nachos...

Excellent, in fact the best in this area. The food is exquisite, service absolutely fine. You think you are in a little bit of Argentina.

I came here to celebrate an anniversary with my girlfriend. I ordered the BBQ ribs while she opted for the fillet steak. Even though there was a small delay with the food, it was cooked to perfection. Kevin was an excellent waiter, he took his...

I visited with my friends on Thursday. And as usual service was top notch, warmly welcomed with olives on table, great selection of cocktails, can't resist when you have it on 2-4-1. I ordered a 600g fillet and it was buttery texture and so tender. Freshly fried calamari is to die for. I must say it is one of my favourite restaurants in the world.

Me and my other half went to rancho in fareham, we both had Sea bass and steak and ribs combo.Steak was so delicious and the best sea bass I ever have after such a long time.Service was very attentive and friendly.we had dessert Churros and Chocolate Fudge cake.We will definitely come back and recommend to everyone.

All-around terrible experience: an unenthusiastic wait staff, the worst cooked steak I’ve ever been served, and an uninspiring menu.

Just been to Rancho steakhouse in Fareham the other day with my mates. I had an awesome time. Great food, generous portion and high quality service. We ordered 8 steaks and every steak came out perfectly according to our need. Food was served on a reasonable considering how busy the restaurant was. Hats off to the chef! This could be one of my favourite dinner places in UK. I definitely recommend you to have a steak here and feel that experience as I did.

They find not know I was coming, thevlast time I was there you order a steak and tomatoes and mushroom was on the plate also the steak came with chips, I used to ask for the tomato and mushroom not to be put on the plate. One of my party ask if he could have small chipsin stead of large, when the plate arrived there was no tomato or mushroom. Apparently now you have to ask for them both and the chips which now comes as side orders and can cost between 2-50 & 3-50 a bowl. In stead of getting steak and chips for £18 you end up getting it for £20 +2-50 +-3-50 which ends up as £26 for a meal, that's an extra £8 more than the last time I went a rip off. The steak was cook as I wanted it but was so dry. Did not complain because it was a birthday meal for my wife and I didn't want to unset her.

White it is not cheap, the quality was good and plenty of it, most of our group had large steaks with no complaints.

Wanted a post cinema meal but pre-booked as it was a Saturday. Good job we did as quite a few people were filing in to the restaurant in front of and behind us. We were shown to a cosy table in a corner fairly near the door but it wasn't too chilly as we were sheltered from it by a low wall. The place looked completely full, with people waiting at the bar for tables to become available. The service was a little on the slow side but hardly surprising as they were so busy. Anyway it wasn't a problem and when ever someone passed our table or brought something to us they made a point of apologising for the speed of service so they still managed to be very attentive even when busy, We both had prawns for starters but different dishes: I had prawn cocktail and he had fried large prawns in their shells. These were nice but he felt he could have done with one or two more (big appetite). I felt my prawn cocktail was actually a bit too big (smaller appetite) leaving me feeling I might struggle to finish the main course: Loads and loads of prawns but they were the very tiny ones and slightly chewy. Would have been better with fewer prawns but better quality ones. We both had steak - I had the fillet and he had the ribeye. both were cooked to our liking and tasty. And yes I did struggle a bit to finish it! We had skinny fries and green beans with it and a good bottle of red wine. No room for dessert for either of us. It came to around £75.00 with the wine. We also had water which I think was complementary. Would recommend.

We booked a table on a saturday and told us that we must leave the table at a certain time.

Initially this place took my eye with the advert outside for “all you can eat” bbq ribs, unfortunately the off is for Wednesday’s only.

Went on my own for a meal whilst staying for a work meeting. Had prawns for starters followed by a brilliant Rancho triple steak (tenderloin, rump and sirloin) it was top notch food. 10% military discount as well. Will definitely return in Apr on my next visit.

The restaurant was larger than I expected. We had a lunchtime special menu, I think it was 2 courses for about £10. A real good quality meal. I had a prawn cocktail and chicken , salad and chips. All of which was very good. The others had ribs and steak, salad and chips, they said theirs meals were excellent too.

Visited Ranchos in Fareham with friends & we were all very surprised. From the pavement looking in you can't see a lot to see if it's busy or not , a quick walk around the corner & we were greeted with a full house. A lively & busy restaurant with a greet menu choice. Steaks , Chicken & die for ribs. If your looking for a great local steak on a Saturday night look no fewer than Ranchos. BZ We will be back .

We have visited this restaurant a number of times in the past and had lunch there today. Lunch was lovely good food well served by a staff member, we later found out was called Kerry.

All you can eat ribs, great value for money, would really need to be pre booked as the place was packed all evening, we tried to book it on a previous trip and couldn’t get a table, an endless supply of tasty succulent ribs, first class definitely one to go back to

5 of us went for the steaks and whilst 3 were happy enough 2 definitely were not.

Had an amazing time this evening at Rancho Steakhouse -- Was fantastic food and service. The steak was the best steak by far I have had in England! If you are looking for a fantastic service with unbelievable food then get yourself down to this Resturant!

Just ate here and the food and service is amazing, can't imagine enjoying steak tasting this good anywhere else, complete satisfaction from start to finish. Thank You Giash and team for a truly memorable meal.

We went as a group of about eight of us, despite booking well in advance, we were all crammed into a circular booth which was a little annoying as constantly having to move to let people out and no room for side plates for rib bones etc, but it still worked. Most of us went for the all you can eat ribs. The first round that came out were awesome, but subsequent servings didn't quite match the first. We had to wait quite a while between servings but not too long, and there were quite a few occasions where drinks we ordered just didn't come and required reminding - made me frustrating by the compulsary tip added to the bill - morph this probably worked to the waitresses' disadvantage as they probably would have got a lot more from people leaving their change!

We visited on a busy Friday evening and there a lot of large parties in the area to the rear of the restaurant, where we were seated. It was quite noisy so conversation was difficult, another time we would ask for a table at the front, where it seemed to be quieter. Even so we had a very enjoyable meal, the food was delicious, although one of our party of four had to return his steak as it hadn't been cooked the way he'd requested, the waiting staff were very apologetic and a replacement was quickly provided and that was fine. There was plenty of choice on the menu and it was of a reasonable price. We usually would have had a couple of bottles of red wine with our meal but with the cheapest starting at £22 we just had some beer. All the staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Popped in for Lunch and had the most excellent service and food I've ever experienced and that's saying something.

Food was amazing, the staff were very helpful had a few meals in this steak house over the last few weeks all were good and tasty.

Some of the best food I’ve had! Staff was really friendly and enthusiastic and so helpful, can definitely recommend to others.

Popped in for lunch, great atmosphere, fantastic service and awesome food, Very well priced, huge selection on the menu

Beautiful food, great service, absolutely 5 star plus, couldn’t ask for a better place to come and treat my misses

Been coming here regularly since living in Fareham and am never disappointed. Great food, generous portions and staff that look after you. My favourite thing about this place is that the staff do not rush you, they let you enjoy your meal without trying to get rid of you ready for the next table. The ribs are particularly great.

Rancho's in Fareham is a really great place to enjoy a good meal. The staff are all really attentive and not too in your face. When I visit Fareham I make sure I book in for a meal. Not for vegetarians though

Service and food is Excellent. It was very busy on a Saturday evening but was service still perfect.

Really nice local restaurant with a great atmosphere. The staff are always making sure you're happy, the nice touches like hand towels and chocolates which make it feel that bit more special than the big chains. Food was presented and cooked very well. I had ribs which were so filling and plentiful whilst my partner had a great trio of steak perfectly cooked. Our daughter had a child's menu and for a change it was great to see something other than chicken nuggets on a menu. It was nice to know she had a proper chicken breast and not processed frozen bites.

I had been told this place was great by colleagues. Sadly did not live up to the billing. My ribs were dry and tough and did not appear to have been marinated. Definitely not melt in the mouth. Sadly I have never had ribs in the uk as good as those in the US. Chicken was agin dry and fibrous. The garlic fries ok. The bit of salad was swimming in dressing masking the flavour of the leaves. The spinach was a triumph nicely wilted, Well seasoned, Very tasty. Staff were attentive but being told "no worries" time and time again gets a bit wearing. I won't rush back.

Another great meal at Ranchos last night. The staff are friendly, service faultless and food outstanding. Will be back.

Been coming to Rancho Steakhouse Fareham since it opened and never had a bad experience. It just gets better and better!! The steak is to die for!!

Ate here with a friend and food was very average, service the same. Only eat here if you have to-nothing amazing but not too bad either.

Went here with a group of friends last minute.

Ok it has been a while since i reviewed this place.

If you like your steak this is the place to visit in Fareham. Delicious food and great service. No where competes locally for steaks.

Stopped going here for a while due to variations in standards but noticed a big improvement in food and service on our return. Steak was the best I've had anywhere and service was first class. Happy to return again.

This place knows how to make you welcome, staff are really friendly and very chatty. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Food is freshly cooked, and really well cooked. This is a good night out for a meal and a drink

Had set lunch today. The staff very helpful. Sat on table by window watched the rain come and go. The starter ribs were lovely other starter Was garlic bread and olives were yummy. Steaks best we had and cooked perfectly.
