About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for scenic views
  • Charming
The TA Ranch offers farm to table, locally sourced, made from scratch dining. Honoring Johnson County Wyoming's ranching tradition, the TA specializes in steak and lamb entrees. The TA also offers chicken, seafood and burgers in a relaxed atmosphere. The TA menu offers something for everyone at every price point. Located on the historic site of the Johnson County Cattle War, the TA continues this tradition as a working cattle ranch today. At the TA, dine in an authentic ranch environment surrounded by the TA Grove of century old cotton wood trees. The TA Ranch was established in 1882 just south of Buffalo Wyoming and is the historic site of the Johnson County Cattle War. Today the TA is a working cattle ranch and a guest ranch (rooms available) with visitors from around the world. Dine in the historic cookhouse built in 1906 from hand hewn logs while looking on the stunning views that haven't changed since 1892.

    The entire Brunch was very good! The entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was outstanding! The price was somewhat higher than I felt was reasonable.

    The restaurant called and canceled my reservation when I was 10 minutes away. Because they were hosting a wedding. Why was I allowed to maybe a reservation half a day earlier???

    We made reservations only to get treated like crap - told we were trespassing and to get off their land right now. They asked what the f were we even doing there. WE HAD RESERVATIONS made online by this open table BS. Yes, they were having a private wedding. WE DID NOT KNOW THAT. We were treated with no respect like we were some kind of criminal. She yelled at us and was very verbally abusive. I will never ever eat there. The way we were treated was despicable.

    Was excited to have a nice dinner. My husband ordered the ribeye, which was $52, medium rare. His steak came out medium to well done. The waitress had it remade. The next steak came out medium at best. My husband only ate half of the steak when normally he would eat it all. Very disappointing experience.

    Absolutely Fantastic. Every time we eat here, we are not let down. Prices have increased some, but the food and atmosphere makes up for it.

    Dining at the TA Ranch is more than just dinner...it is an experience. The folks serving you don't just work at the restaurant, they live on the ranch. They take care of the ranch during the day, then serve guests dinner at night. What an amazing experience in a picturesque and historic place!

    The ambience and setting of The Cook House at TA Ranch was exceptional. Food was outstanding and the waitstaff very professional and courteous including the ability and willingness to provide great insights into the history of the region, ranch and present owners. The owner and family were on hand and couldn’t be more engaging, kind and friendly - we felt extremely welcomed which all in all made for a wonderful customer experience! So glad we now live in Buffalo in order to both readily attend and recommend to anyone seeking a top notch and quality dining experience.
