WR Kitchen & Bar Laguna Niguel

Good: inside atmosphere & serviceNot so good: food & price for the quality. I got the ribs w/ the corn & coleslaw, my husband got the burger w/ fries. I got the old fashioned and he got the berry smash. Ribs: 3.5/5- not very tender, a little small for the cost and over all meh. Corn: 5/5 I got without feta but the corn was still really great Coleslaw: 4/5 didn't seem super fresh, was pretty good thoughThe is fashioned was interesting they used cherry bitters, it wasn't my favorite left a strange taste in my mouth that lasted all night. Husband said the burger was fine, the fries were also fine

Really tasty filet & premium sides! Love the outdoor tables to catch up with friends while still eating a home cooked meal. The mac & cheese was hot throughout, definitely could have ate more. Thank you tons Tiffany for the great service even when we came pretty late. We will be back to try more on the menu!

Wood Ranch's smaller restaurant & streamlined menu. We had a great burger & salad for lunch on a weekday. Service was good & ambiance is nice. Big bar & great large patio too.

I've been here a handful of times the past few months and I had no clue how good this location was! I like it even better than the original wood ranch?! The service has always been top notch, the food always comes out fresh and cooked to perfection. The restaurant is very clean and newly renovated. The outdoor patio is dog friendly, heated, and nicely covered. They have a great happy hour as well! I prefer this location out of all the others! Definitely my favorite spot at the moment

Tonight, we enjoyed a meal at the WR bar instead of the dining area. The bartender was friendly and kept our drinks filled and got our food orders timely. We started with our drinks (nice IPA selection) and some of the complimentary garlic rolls - soft, hot and yummy. Then for our mains we had the double cheeseburger with the mac and cheese on the side. This is a good burger - nothing fancy but good flavors (especially with the grilled onions). The bartender suggested a little sauce, so on one half I used some of their house BBQ sauce and the other half with some Thousand Island. The TI was less sweet and paired better with the burger. That was a helpful suggestion from the bartender. The side of mac was great. We also tried the two meat plate with the ribs (good) and the tri tip (very good) and for the sides: the mashed potatoes (terrific) and the roasted cauliflower (I'm not a huge cauliflower fan, but I liked this). Overall good experience and we will be back.

Tatum recommended the ribs and it did not disappoint. No words can describe it. Just try for yourselves. Excellent food along with excellent service.

I have been going to Wood Ranch for years. They can be a little inconsistent but generally it is one of my favorite restaurants. Unfortunately, my first visit to WR Kitchen was a disappointment. The garlic rolls were not fresh, the Tri tip was dry and overcooked, and the baby back ribs were average at best. The only item we enjoyed was the side salad. It was fresh and plentiful. Service was fine but definitely did not make up for the disappointing food.

I am writing this review because, my people received awesome service by our Waitress/Bartender?Emily(i hope that's her name because that what was on my receipt) and by Tatum. Now normally I skip this place because the two times we came here before it was a underwhelming experience. Service was slow, food coming out cold, after our server disappeared and having to ask the nearest server can you check on either our food or server also sides missing. But my people wanted BBQ and it's been about 2years since those experiences. So we sit at the bar order 2 drinks and food. The menu has totally slim down, I wish the had sliders, but the recommendations we got from Tatum and Emily were spot on. College Basketball was on the TV. The Food was hot and Emily was very attentive to us.My people were happy and so was IThis was a very different experience and I hope it becomes the norm. Sidenote* this was during the week so weekend might be much different. The western sandwich toss with BBQ sauce and get the mashed potatoes skip the fries. Also Emily makes a NICE Vodka Cranberry! See yall in two weeks when I get paid. I would love a coupon to come back sooner. But if not payday it is.

i always sit at the bar & get great service & delicious food. but i must say i can't help but have a big smile when Serra is my bartender; she takes such great care of me, remembering my order to a t & making sure i have everything i need.the difference between having Serra there vs. not is just that i have to ask for the item or two i might need vs. Serra literally remembering every exact thing i want. it's not a lot, habanero bbq & some bread to go but when she's there, everything is just so easy.she's sweet & competent & i've overheard her remember other guests orders as well. thank you WR & thank you Serra for being outstanding!i always get the bbq baby back ribs w roasted broccoli & a side of habanero bbq & it's SO. GOOD. house garlic bread is addictive & stellar.

Started with a half order of Caesar salad with "eggless" Caesar dressing. Very large portion, probably over dressed but just too tart for me. Carolina Pulled Pork Menu says certified sustainably farmed, antibiotic and hormone free! That's probably true because the pork is definitely on the dry side and unless mixed with the pepper sauce, is quite difficult to put down. Entrees come with two sides - I chose skillet baked beans (sweet) and somewhat plain mashed potatoes. Portions are also large and it's a lot to eat so come here hungry. They have a nice long drink menu with micro craft and beers on tap. That's all.
