Opened in July 2015, Twisted Ranch is a small restaurant on South 8th Street in downtown Saint Louis. All of the food is made in house, including all ranch flavors. They serve items from buffalo chicken dip to chicken ranch gyros. Twisted Ranch serves ranch inspired meals to guests of all ages. Everything on the menu incorporates ranch in some way, and they have more than 20 flavors of ranch for enjoying. Ranch flavors include Twisted Ranch, Buffalo Ranch, Avocado Ranch, Kemowasabi (Honey and Wasabi), Srirancha, Sunny in Fetadelphia, Caesar Ranch, Cajun Ranch and much more.

“Each flavor of ranch I tried blew my mind, and I liked the rustic theme of the restaurant,” junior Jared Strickland said.

They open for lunch everyday at 11 a.m. and close their doors at 3 p.m. to start preparing for the dinner rush. Then they open again at 5:30 p.m. and close at 9 p.m. for dinner. They are closed on Mondays and open only for lunch on Sundays. Wait times for the restaurant during a dinner rush are, on average, 45 minutes to an hour.

“It was a really cozy place,” senior Skyeler Knuuttila said. “I only tried two things but even so, I would definitely drive down there again to eat.”
