I waited for 20 minutes for some more chicken while 6 staff members were just talking away in the front lobby. Extreme slackage in my opinion. While they were talking away and cracking jokes they could've been preparing the chicken that everybody wanted, because let's be honest, who even comes here for the pizza? It's all about the chicken and they as staff members should know that and should have a consistent rotation with the chicken. Very unpleased. Also the Dr Pepper was out. read more

Pizza Ranch - A piece of chicken I waited so very long for. - Pizza Near Me - Mitchell, South Dakota

If I could rate this 0 stars, I would. My boyfriend and I have ate at this pizza ranch 3 times now and each time they have either no food out or old food out. For the price you pay they should be putting out fresh everything. My boyfriend ordered a specialty pizza and it took them 45 min to bring it out, even then it did NOT look fresh. This was around 12:30pm when we went to go eat. It's just a disappointment at this point. We will never be going back to the Mitchell location unless they change management there. How can you come out and look at the buffet and not change out pizzas that look like they've been out from the day before. How can you have 6 people working and none of them are doing their jobs. The only time we seen the workers is when we left and they were all standing by the front talking and laughing. Well I didn't think it was very funny spending over $30 on food that looked nasty. At lunch time is crazy. GET NEW MANAGEMENT. read more

This Pizza Ranch is near Dakota Wesleyan University. It's smaller in seating than other Pizza Ranches and the variety provided during the lunch hour buffet was limited. Prices are high for a buffet lunch, but service was good at this location. Bathrooms were clean, and the Fun Zone looked well maintained. Overall, it was a decent stop in Mitchell for a lunch break. read more

Pizza Ranch - my plates - Pizza Near Me - Mitchell, South Dakota

My family goes here weekly. We were in town visiting. The food is reasonably good and priced for a buffet. I asked for a gluten free pizza in the buffet due to a medical condition. But, they make you buy it separately. At that point, it becomes pricy. With so many people trying to avoid gluten, it would seem reasonable to at least make it upon request. read more

First and last time to Pizza Ranch. This is a mediocre pizza and chicken buffet. Tons of kids touching everything, bus people can't keep up with table turnover so dirty dishes and napkins laying on tables. We felt like we were at an elementary school cafeteria. Will never return! read more

one of the worst restaurants I've been to in a very long time. Food was so disgusting and can tell it wasn't made properly also the service was even worse. They were mean they had an attitude for no reason. and I asked for my receipt, many times which they did not give me. read more

They food was good and the people were ni e I just feel it don't deserve a 5 stares though

Ok so the variety of the buffet was pretty cool. They had a ton of different stuff and good soda selection plus it was fun and had an arcade. The pasta with red sauce was better than i expected and i really liked the sauce. The chicken was also better than i expected and i liked it. The salad bar was ok but could be better if they had soup. The pizza was not very good tho and probably the worst thing about it which was disappointing considering the name. I will say the dough was way better suited to the dessert pizza than the normal one. The dessert pizza was fire but they didnt have the cactus bread so i couldnt try that. The dessert selection overall was solid and i likes that they have an arcade. I would give it a 7 overall. Pizza 5/10 variety 8/10 and other food 7/10 read more

I have eaten at several Pizza Ranch and this one had a lacking menu compared to the others. They had no chicken strips and no Mac and cheese. Pizza was under cooked. It was clean and the staff was nice. read more

Pizza Ranch - the front of the restaurant at night - Pizza Near Me - Mitchell, South Dakota

Dine in | Dinner Pizza Ranch in Mitchell, SD was the first time we'd ever eaten at a Pizza Ranch. We had been driving all day and arrived at 7:00. I was worried the food wouldn't be fresh since their closing time was 8:00. I'm glad I was wrong. The food was fresh and delicious and the buffet was replenished right up until closing time. I was impressed with the variety of food available- various pizzas, a well-stocked salad bar, fried chicken, multiple sides, pasta, dessert pizzas, and ice cream. The young man at the register was very friendly and made sure we knew what to do since it was our first visit. I'm sad we don't have a Pizza Ranch where we're from. I would definitely recommend Pizza Ranch, especially the one in Mitchell, S.D., to anyone. read more

This place doesn't deserve even the lowest rating. It was dirty. The carpet was littered with food, the salad bar was empty and was filthy. The buffet bar was dirty with food all over. They don't keep up with keep the chicken or pizza trays filled. The worst. read more

By far worst pizza ranch I have been to, they were extremely slow and the pizza was barely cooked and was super low quality. Not to mention literal bullets sitting on the ground in the parking lot. read more

literally the best buffet i've had in a LONG TIME!!!! the pizza was sooooo good. service was great.

I was surprised to have such a good experience here. It was so clean and the staff was very very friendly. The food is out of this world. There are so many option that there is something for everyone. The food was so good I had to be held back. read more

Pizza Ranch - Pizza Baffet - Pizza Near Me - Mitchell, South Dakota

It was a good price for the buffet, and the staff were nice. Unfortunately, that's where Pizza Ranch's good points end. The salad was kinda disgusting. The pizza was mediocre. Otherwise, just nothing spectacular about this place. It's fun for a meeting with friends, as a last resort. Kinda reminds me of CiCi's, but not even as good. read more

Been to Pizza Ranch only a couple times before, and this location has really excellent service. The others were good, but my son and I agree this place really puts in extra effort to make our visit A+. As always, reflected in a tip in the table (don't get cheap because you have to get yourself vertical to get food!) but this PR deserves a thumbs up in Yelp. read more

The restaurant gave us food poisoning. Do NOT go! They make special pizza for people when they do buffet, it sits at their table and if they only eat half they put it on the buffet. Who knows what happens to it at peoples table! read more

Place smelled like rotten tomatoes, the food didn't come out fast at all, there was ants crawling around on the table and the wall. Food wasn't cooked all the way. read more

Stopped for takeout chicken. The chicken was overdone and dry. The biscuits were burned black and hard. And someone needs to empty the outside trash. It was an overflowing mess. So very disappointed. Won't be back to this store. read more

Staff was great and we enjoyed eating here twice during our stay in Mitchell. Restaurant was clean and I would like to eat here again!

No Masks!! No Thank you! Walked in and left immediately. Many staff and guests in groups around the buffet with no social distancing and not a mask in sight. I realize this is South Dakota so protocols may be a bit different but no way would we eat here. read more

This is the worst Pizza Ranch I have ever been to. I have been to 3 of them across the state and am a fan, in general. This one, the selection was terrible. Maybe 6 pizzas, all of which looked old. There were about 10 people there on a Sunday night and they were SLOW to replace the pizza. This place is about half the size of a normal Pizza Ranch, and a lot older. read more

This was my first time at a Pizza Ranch, and my last. It was slow, the food mediocre, but the worst part was seeing the food on the floor...which much of it seemed to be there for a long time. My pizza took 31 minutes to come out. Not a super complicated task. Yeah, I don't see the draw. read more

Ordered pizza, chicken strips, and coleslaw. Pizza and chicken was delivered, but no coleslaw. Called the store and talked to a woman who acted like it was no big deal, but she said she would have the driver bring it to me. I waited 45 minutes before calling back, to find out that she never told the manager about my missing coleslaw. The manager then told me that if I didn't want my coleslaw, over 2 hours after ordering, that she would give me a $10 credit. So, because they messed my order up, I have to order from them again to get my money back. I asked her to just take it off my total, and she said their computer system doesn't work that way. This is the third time this store has messed up my order. Will not be ordering from them again. read more

Customer service was TERRIBLE. Manager was rude. Had a group of 7 so we moved tables together, and 15 minutes into our meal, they came over and rudely told us to move them back. We calmly apologized and said we would move them back when we were finished, and they rudely told us we had to move them instantly. Avoid at all costs. read more

The wait for online orders is ridiculous. The last two times I've ordered, it's been close to an hour wait. No explanations or even coupons.

My family rolled into town late just as they were about to close up. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating - they took our order and even offered to let us dine in past closing time. The pizza was great, especially for the price. read more

Placed an order online. Nearly an hour later, an employee called to verify the order since -- according to her -- they just received it. I asked for some kind of compensation for the long wait -- thinking maybe a discount, coupon, free dessert pizza -- something to keep our business. Was told we were entitled to no compensation because of a computer glitch. Needless to say, we will not order online from them again! read more

Service was very slow. Pizza was picked over and not replenish after 30 mins. So I ate the buffalo pizza they had then I left. I would not go back read more

Great pizza, great fried chicken, great cactus bread... It was really a pleasure having lunch today at this joint in Mitchell, South Dakota!

The parking lot was packed so already we were suspicious, hee. We associate packed parking lots with fast food restaurants. Pizza Ranch is a chain so expect lots of what we would consider to be mediocre pizza, fried chicken, simple salad bar, dessert pizza, for about $10 each. Yes, sounds like an okay deal and there was nothing bad at all about the food. However, the crust is very much not like the kind of chewy, hand-thrown pizza crust you would love to get. It is more like what you would get out of the freezer. Their service is admirable and they will prepare any kind of pizza you wish if it already is not at the feeding trough. But there still is the crust. So if you want to shovel so-so pizza into your gob in a reasonably comfortable fast-food chain restaurant, this is the place for you. You will not be alone. read more

We ate here after visiting the Corn Palace. Better than average pizza buffet. I'm a vegetarian, but my husband and brother loved the chicken. read more

Just ordered the Tuscan Pizza and a desert pizza! They were both excellent. The food arrived hot. The delivery man was courteous. Will be ordering from them in the future! read more

no salt-and-pepper shakers on the table, no dessert pizza after the lunch rush left very small buffet selection and the upholstery was all ripped his owner needs to get this place updated to snuff with the other pizza Ranches stop in Hartford before you stop in mitchell read more

Good food and best value in the past 1300 miles we've traveled. Family friendly and GREAT service!!!

This is the worst pizza ranch I have ever eating at. I came with my tennis team they had no pizzas out and when they did they tasted like they were old. They also have nothing other the salad out most of the time we were there. Also there ice cream was broken. Overall worst experience ever. read more

Very busy on a Tuesday night. The food on the buffet was hot and replaced often. The front cashier was not friendly (didn't hand me my receipt and ran off before I left the counter thankyouverymuch) and the staff looked overwhelmed and run ragged. But, it was very family friendly, the pizza, fried chicken, dessert pizza were all fresh and hot. read more

Having moved away from my beloved Mitchell I have come to appreciate this oasis of awesomeness on the high prairies. As far as Pizza Buffets go, this is by far the best I have ever had. The pizza is always fresh, the fried chicken crispy and hot, sides sublime, and the cactus bread might require a 12 step program to stop eating. If you are hungry and passing Mitchell, do stop and see for yourself. read more

We were a group of 7. We pulled in at 8:40 pm. We were told as soon as we walked in that whatever was left on the buffet was it. There were slim pickings left so we went to Ruby Tuesdays. read more
