aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaTHE WOOD RANCH STORY

aaaaaaaaIn 1992, Ofer Shemtov and Eric Anders were each working more than 75 hours a week at a Los Angeles restaurant. At that time, relaxationaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaawas seeing a movie only to fall asleep right after the opening credits. Despite the long work hours they both knew if they got the opportunity,aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaathey would open their own restaurant company.

aaaaaaaIn 1992 Ofer found the first location in Moorpark and the two best friends renovated what was a failed barbecue restaurant. With only a $5,000aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ssssssssbudget, they created the first Wood Ranch BBQ and Grill.

aaaaaaThe restaurant, relatively small by today’s standards, became a great success in serving a community creaving a relaxing environment with great food.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaToday, there are fifteen Wood Ranch locations and one WR Kitchen & Bar serving Southern California.
