When we visited, the restaurant seating was closed. Based on the conversations around me, they had not opened it. It seemed like the location was recently opened (or reopened?) and working with limited staff. All in all, we really enjoyed the food. The dough was surprisingly fluffy!

I would order it again. Our server was also super kind, super young, and super social. Really enjoyed the small town feel, arcades in the back for my son to play and redeem in ice cream!! I definitely will return and try other things. Oh yeah the wings were what you would expect, average price...those Broasted chicken though was just spectacular.

Inside is old school wood panelling, a long bar, and a good sized dining area. The staff was super friendly and we were seated quickly despite the dinner rush. We all ordered the Fried Chicken which was apparently named best in Minnesota a few years ago by WCCO. Between us we got fries,, baked potato, and 2 different kinds of coleslaw for sides. Everything was delicious and the chicken was perfectly crispy. If you're in New Ulm this is definitely worth the short drive over. Note that they only take cash or checks but they do have an ATM on-site.

I had the Chicken Stir Fry Salad which came warm on top of a nice bed of Romaine. It was great to avoid Carbs but I get tired of Cold salads. Mushrooms & Onions were plentiful with Red Peppers all warm and tasty. Could have had a bit more chicken in it but when your looking to go Keto this works. My sister had the Chicken Parmigiana and my wife had the Chicken & Asparagus Stir Fry on top of Quinone and they were very satisfied with it - NO DOGGIE BAGS were used after this meal!! Great modern atmosphere, restrooms close by and exceptionally clean i hated to leave after our meal was over. This was a home-run place for us and we are looking to coming back for more meals during our stay in New Ulm.

Our German Platters were good as well as the Chicken Asparagus Bowl, but the Shrimp Loganstino wasn't even fair (cold, not much shrimp for cost of dish, no flavor). So I split the difference (5 for other dishes, 0 for shrimp) to make it a 4. We loved the New Ulm Narren (masked, costumed characters) that paraded through the restaurant. They were gracious about stopping for photographs! Thank you New Ulm Narren!

Nice park with great concessions and cool seating! After they won their game our team of hungry ballplayers and assorted family members descended on this quaint bar and grill nearby to support the local businesses. The bar and grill had lots of space! They had a typical bar area when you first walked in. Then further back they had two good sized additional rooms for private parties. We took up the smaller space with the ladies retreating back to the bar area for lunch. I was impressed with their variety on their drink menu. So much to choose from! Most of the Moms enjoyed Bloody Mary's and a few other pink drinks. The Dads mostly had beers. The players enjoyed some local 1919 root beer from Schell's brewery. A few of us chose ice water and fountain sodas to drink which was served well water. So the young teens from the Twin Cities were not enjoying the flavor much! So just be forewarned that this is an unincorporated community and stick to bottled drinks if you can't appreciate that extra flavor! We overwhelmed them with a huge group and our waitress did amazing taking care of us! Looking back we should have ordered all of the player's food first and then the parents, but it was probably easier separate ticket-wise. Thankfully we had time before our next game. And was it worth it? Most definitely! I had the best mushroom Swiss burger I've ever tasted with the freshest bun! The crinkle cut fries and ranch dressing we're perfect! Crispy crinkles on the outside with soft potato goodness on the inside. My ballplayer had the club, which he had to smoosh down to fit in his mouth! The others around us enjoyed their fried fish sandwich with onion rings, bacon burgers, and everything else in between! The food here was excellent quality with great flavor! By the looks of their menu they had fun events and happenings going on too. Plus attached to the back rooms we were in they had a spacious covered patio and good sized uncovered patio. For a delicious diner style burger or sandwich this is the small town spot to stop at! If you're even luckier hopefully you can catch a ball game down at the other end of Main Street! It's like you were transported back in time.

While we were waiting for our food, I looked at the buffet and had wonderful flashbacks about my childhood at Cici's and Barnhills and places like that, and I couldn't resist. I asked the cashier how much for one slice of pizza from the buffet, she told me it was like $2, and I gladly forked over the money. I went, got my plate, got my slice, and mentally and emotionally delved back into my childhood. The pizza was absolutely fine, but at the same time, it was perfect. Now, for the food we took to go, fried chicken and biscuits are quintessentially a Southern thing, and I think they should remain a Southern thing. Nice try, Minnesota, but stay in your lane. Four stars for a lovely meal with a lovely family! Thanks, Pizza Ranch.

My husband debated between the chicken pot pie and Mac and cheese and ended up with the pasta. We all thought it was delicious but he felt it was a small portion size.
