Ponderosa Bar

What a fun «small town» bar and restaurant! It is actually in Elk City (I would think) but not far off the West Omaha/​Maple beaten path.
Last night (Saturday) was prime rib night and I had been craving some so we ventured out and braved the «snow». I was warned that this would probably be the standard small town «prime rib, baked potato, salad and dinner roll» bar This was correct but there is NOTHING wrong with that when the salad is cold and fresh, the potato gets the butter and sour cream and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, the prime rib is cooked to perfection.
I have been to «5-​star» local steak restaurants that didn’t do prime rib this well. PERFECTLY cooked to my «rare» liking and an au jous that was plentiful and well flavored. Definitely a hit and a fun time.
Fun observations — everyone seemed to know everyone (always fun) the waitresses were awesome despite being packed and running everywhere, the juke box had a nice mix going on and the Golden Tee game was the center of attention.
I am looking forward to the next visit and for my Unilocal friends (especially those of you out west with me), I hope you throw them some business. As an aside — Tuesday night is taco night and they have the standard fried bar food (including gizzards) all week.
