The menu features thick, juicy steaks, fresh seafood, unique starters, bountiful salads and sides, and oversized desserts. When you’re looking for a special occasion spot or a great meal any night of the week, check out The Range Steakhouse. Executive Chef Colin Ribble challenges his team to be creative, bringing in different products and ideas to try which is then presented every night as the “feature” dinner. The staff includes Chef Ribble, a sous chef, a room chef, and six cooks, all of whom have been with Ribble for some years. For Cowboy Lifestyle Network fans, Chef Ribble suggests the 16-ounce ribeye steak, grilled medium rare. “I prefer the fattier cut of meat,” Ribble says of the ribeye. “It has two different muscles one of which is my favorite the rib cap, which is as tender as a filet but it’s got the marbling of the ribeye and the two together is perfect.” Ribble uses a kosherflake salt, coarser than regular salt, and coarse ground pepper to encrust the steak. Ribble encourages fans to try out the good, simple tastes of The Range Steakhouse. Specialty sides to accompany the ribeye steak are grilled asparagus, sautéed mushrooms and onions, cavatappi macaroni and cheese, house parmesan garlic steak fries, roasted garlic mashed potatoes, vanilla-sweet mashed potatoes, sautéed spinach, or a baked potato. The appetizers include delicacies like shrimp cocktail martini and seared scallops. For dessert, you can choose among crème brûlée; cast iron s’mores; sugar-free key lime cheesecake; a six-layer chocolate cake served with vanilla bean gelato, scoops of raspberry sorbet, or signature gelato; or a regularly changing, seasonal chef’s choice dessert. Their after-dinner drinks offer the perfect nightcap to your meal. The Range Steakhouse is open Sundays through Thursdays from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Call 480-802-5000 for reservations, or book your table online. Make The Range Steakhouse part of your next evening out—you won’t be disappointed!
