    I arrived 20 minutes late for my pick up order. When I arrived at the window, an employee informed me there was a problem with the fryer, and could I wait in the parking lot for 10-15 minutes until my chicken order was done. I agreed, parked, and waited for 15 minutes. I then drove up to the window, and the manager had my order in hand. He apologized for the wait, and explained that the fryer had an issue, he was training a new hire, and missed my order and apologized again and said he was sorry, and refunded the amount of my order, and said I hope you come back. The Manager went above and beyond by the refund and asking me to come back. Of course, we will return, we love Pizza Ranch! God bless!

    Everyone was friendly and helpful. Food and service was great. Atmosphere was good and the music wasn't to loud. It was up enough to where you can hear it but still have conversations with others.

    We’re from the east coast and had never been to a Pizza Ranch. I’d been to Cici’s pizza back in the day, so long ago that the buffet was $3! Times sure have changed, as a buffet for 2 here was nearly $35. What a waste of money and calories. Why? Let’s do niceties and discuss some history first. Pizza ranch has a dedicated following in the Midwest. It has its roots in Iowa and it seems as if the locals love it. God bless ‘em. On to the review: We made the mistake of coming through the doors of Pizza Ranch on Valentine’s Day and were very disappointed. The food was stale. Many salad bar containers were completely empty, including the lettuce! The marinara sauce that I guess you dip the pizza in (since the pizza has no sauce on it) was very dark, dried out and sad looking. The Mac and cheese looked like it sat out 6 hours, I was too scared and disgusted to try any. The pizza was also pretty old and never replenished. The crust had holes in it reminiscent of those Boboli pre-made crusts you could buy at the grocery store in the 90’s. Do they still make those? Let’s be positive a little bit: Pizza ranch also has fried chicken on the bone, and chicken tenders. The tenders were in fact decent. I’d say it’s on par with what you could get at a chain grocery store, perhaps even a little better, and it was actually hot! I had 3 tenders with honey mustard and that was pretty satisfying. They also have a dessert area with what looked like apple pie pizza, some other product I missed, soft serve ice cream, and cookies baked round like their pizza. The cookies were surprisingly good. Better than the ones I’ve had from dominos or papa John’s. Sweet and flavorful, not just notes of cardboard. My dining partner reported that the soft serve was very good. If you have a sweet tooth and they put out dessert stuff, grab it fast because it’s pigs at the trough otherwise. Friendly advice to the store: -please stop putting away food at 7:30 when you close at 8. We arrived at 7 and felt we had no time to eat. -please replenish the food that runs out or has sat out for too long. -Don’t you also have bread? We didn’t see it. -do you always charge for drinks when people may not want them? I know it’s a buffet, we aren’t going for our health. But I just wanted water and was charged for soda. Why is it mandatory to pay you to get even more diabetic and corpulent? -finally, Would it be hard to have seasonings aside from salt and pepper? For $35 to feed 2 people, you could spend half as much at dominos using a coupon. Pick it up, bring it home and .have a better experience than pizza ranch. I truly expected better out of such an esteemed regional pizza purveyor. If you do go, stick to the chicken, the cookie pizza, and soft serve.

    I always am treated with kindness and respect when I come to this Pizza Ranch location. They always serve you fresh food and if it’s not fresh and you ask for fresh food, they are more than happy to give it to you. I believe coming here is a way better deal than going to Golden Corral. I believe Pizza Ranch has a better menu and a more affordable menu for everybody in your family.
