THE RANCH Restaurant & Saloon is the brainchild and dream of Southern-born and bred Andrew Edwards, owner of Orange County's Extron Electronics. The Restaurant and Saloon are next door to each other but are two separate sister venues that operate independently of one another. The Restaurant has an understated elegance with beautiful touches of dark wood, stunning light fixtures and decor like old leather belts on the floor. Produce used in their seasonally-focused menu is grown at their farm located in the foothills of the Santa Ana mountains.
