| - Let me start out by saying me giving this place 4-stars means it's good....because it's at Westgate and I'm not a huge fan of that scene.
First off, I do think they have a few too many hostesses (never seen a man host), which is fine by me but it's almost a congregation at the entrance. It's a big bar/restaurant so even on busy days you can usually get a table or a seat at one of the bars.
There's two bars outside which are easily accessible, a lot of tables on the patio that wraps around the front and side of the restaurant, and a couple fire pits that are burning the midnight oil (till 4am on weekends, I do believe).
The food is great. Get the wings, ribs, or BBQ burger and you won't be disappointed. Eat at the bar because this place, hands down, has the best looking bartenders at Westgate. At least the times that I've been here, they have been S-M-O-K-I-N-G HOT!
There's also a bull, which makes this place even better. For $3 you can sign your life away, the can avoid a lawsuit if you get bucked into the pond, and you can try hold on while they throw you around. It's fun to watch because you can see a 300 pound man fall off in 4-seconds but a 90-pound woman hold on for a minute....they know what they're doing.
I'd recommend trying it out on the weekdays for lunch if you're going for food, night time if you're going to try and "work your game" or Saturday nights if you're into the whole "TAP OUT and AFFLICTION" scene....which I am definately NOT A FAN OF. Saturdays can get real annoying if you're not trying to be somebody and don't eat creatine and protein powder for your pre-dinner appetizer.
But, that's not just Saddle Ranch, that's all of Westgate on the weekends so don't hold it against them. I'd definately check it out if you're in the area.
