We brought our school kids here on a field trip. They were awesome! They had everything organized for our group of over 100. We were a lot, but I can't say enough about how well they managed the experience and served us, from the first phone call to make arrangements to the last dirty dish! Food, as always, was great. read more

Not enough people working at a busy time and we have been waiting for while just to pay to get sat

This place is better than the reviews indicate. Is it great pizza?- ok, no. But the fried chicken is pretty darn good. Has a certain fried but light crunch coating. It seasoned well. And the chicken is always cooked great....plenty of good moist meat....even on a white meat breast. Their sides aren't too bad...for the ones I tried. And, should you be looking for a catering option - I've used them a couple of times....and they did a great job both times I used this place. read more

Was a little disappointed. I guess if you go there around 2pm they do not restock. I asked for white chicken meat was ignored. Chicken noodle soup was cold. No ice cream cones. Pizza was old. Now the person clean the table did an outstanding job. read more

We were greeted promptly. The food was good and there was decent variety. The salad bar was well stocked and there was fresh fried chicken! Nice variety of pizza and dessert! We will return! It's a pizza buffet so lots of foot traffic, children. read more

for a buffet, food is deliciously fresh. pizza dough is very good and toppings are fresh. their fried chicken is phenomenal. Great value.

You can argue the merits of New York versus Chicago all you want, real connoisseurs know the best pizza is in the middle.

Ok...I'm going to admit right from the start that I was on the fence between 3 and 4 stars as I'm typically not a big fan of all-you-can eat buffets, especially pizza buffets. However, the staff was awesome, the place was clean, the food was well stocked (even when a big basketball tournament was in the area!), and the food was...good! Here's what I had: - Caprese pizza ... This was was my favorite of the two kinds of pizza I tried. Very good. - Chicken pizza ... Not extraordinary but better than average buffet pizza. -Salad bar ... Very well stocked with a variety of options in addition to standard salad fixings including macaroni salad, potato wedges, and Saratoga chips. This is one of those places that you will enjoy and appreciate if you have the right expectations. If you want a posh place with dry aged steaks and truffles you may want to go somewhere else. If you're looking for a good pizza buffet, Pizza Ranch will satisfy! Thumbs up from Tony Snacks! read more

We took a team here after calling ahead to let them know. The employees were super nice but they had very little food on the buffet. So the boys had to wait for more food all the time. The chicken was really good. They said they didn't know we were coming even though we called hours before to let them know we had about 40 people. It's typical buffet style food. read more

Fired a disabled person that has a contact with them I did nothing wrong and they said you fired! This will be news because what new gm did! WILL NOT Survive another winter this is why you guys never get people in your restaurant or employees this is why people left after you fired me is because they don't treat people like dirt they don't like that and they liked how I was treated is because I was well respected I was a heart and soul person and not just not you fired a person that actually had a skeleton crew well manage due to a dishwasher due to you you screwed them over! You'll hear more from this later on yelp and GrubHub and more read more

After a sporting event, found ourselves at Pizza Ranch due to a larger group and ability to find something for everyone. Employees don't seem happy to be working here. They were irritated that we asked for pizzas, they weren't even busy!!! The bar was empty most of the time we were here, dirty tables, and everything out of order... location of plates, cups, pop etc. Not somewhere that I would want to go back to. read more

what a ripoff $14.95 per person for midocre food rigged arcade games that are 1.00 per play and tickets for prizes are stupid expensive. it cost us $70 for a family of 4 and left with a 2 tootsie rolls and pixie stick. I'd rather go to a steakhouse for that kind of money. read more

Springfield's answer to the trashpit of Cici's that was our only pizza buffet since Pizza Inn shut down...and I like it. It's at the mall, but it's an outside entrance so you don't deal with the mall crowd. They are still new and it's pretty obvious that everyone is still learning. A little patience will do you well here. There is pizza. There is also pretty dope fried chicken with all the sides, a salad bar, soup, and ice cream. The dining room seems very large for a buffet that has less than ten pizzas at all time, so there will be a lot of people clustered around the fresh pizzas (and little kids clustering around the dessert pizza and making all the toppings fall off). It would be nice if the pizzas were labeled on the buffet somehow. You have no idea what you are getting with most of them. You can just see red sauce or white sauce (is it cheese? is it chicken alfredo? is it cheesesticks sliced like a pizza to fool you? I've had all three). You can order whatever pizza you'd like on whatever crust you'd like, but they don't explain the process. There is a little monitor at the start of the buffet and a sticker on the sneezeguard that lists the calorie count--pick your pizza from there. They definitely don't serve those pizzas on the buffet so you won't know they exist (looking at you, breakfast pizza...mac and cheese pizza...pretzel crust anything). The employee at the monitor will fumble with the order, call someone over to help, and you'll finally get a buzzer to take back to your table. When it buzzes, go back to where you ordered...maybe bring a plate, or maybe they will have one up there for you so you're stuck with a second plate. The staff is also very nice--if not TOO nice, where they ask to take your plate when you are eating off of it and have your mouth full. I've literally had to put my piece of pizza on a napkin so they could take my plate--I'm hoping that's an adjustment/experience issue, but you can't fault someone for being overly ambitious at their job. read more

I was skeptical when someone recommended a pizza buffet for fried chicken, but we decided to give it a go and ordered carry out this evening. Simply put, I should have trusted my instincts. As I sat waiting for the order to be prepared, people were complaining about the buffet, too. My order came out, and I made the 10-minute drive home. Bar none, the nastiest food I have ever seen. Despite paying an up charge for all white meat, we got drum sticks as our second piece of chicken, and all of it was undercooked and so greasy it was inedible anyway. The mashed potatoes were just as bad, and the side of coleslaw was packaged in a ONE-ounce condiment cup like some places put ketchup or other sauces in. Rounding things out was a hard, burned biscuit. When I called to talk with a manager (around 7pm on the same Friday night), there wasn't one working; I was asked to call back the next morning. In summation, Pizza Ranch should hit the trail and mosey on out of town. read more

See all

Eleven of use went for a birthday party and we had a ball. The manager was very friendly and put us in a party room. All of the food was first rate. Plenty of fresh Pizza, Chicken and salad. We left happy and full. We will be back. read more

This restaurant continues to disappoint. The food quality so good....when there is any. I was there from 12:30-1:00 on Wed, November 17. The place was about 30% full. There was no fried chicken in the pan, the dressing was room temperature, and the entire buffet had two slices of thick crust pizza, nothing else. Your only option was salad and dessert chocolate chip cookies (which were delicious!) this restaurant could be a hit, but it continues to be poorly managed. read more

I've eaten here several times for dinner and really like it, so when they started having a brunch buffet on the weekends I decided to try it. First off, it is the same price as dinner but with very little to choose from. The breakfast pizza had Italian sausage which was strange. The eggs had an odd taste. The biscuits and gravy were pretty good and they did have their fried chicken out, as well as full salad bar, because everyone loves a good salad at 9am. I know they call it a brunch buffet but for the price, and lack of selection I'll go a few blocks down the street to Golden Corral for breakfast buffet. Pizza ranch is good for lunch and dinner, but for breakfast foods, not so much. read more

Before I state my opinion I want to make it very clear: I understand they are short staffed, I deal with the same issue. We had a party of 16 that had reserved the party room for in advance. When we got there at 6:00pm on Friday evening (our reserved time), the entire buffet was empty. Only options that were left were the side veggies, one pizza, salad options and a few pieces of dessert pizza. The restaurant was some what busy, but yet again even with shorter staff I think that especially on a Friday that an establishment would better prepare for a crowd. Including the reserved 16 person party they agreed to. There was basically the entire restaurant standing at the buffet when we were told it would be 15-20 mins before any food would be available. If it were a seated and served restaurant that would be understandable and expected. But it's ridiculous to have literally no food on a buffet and still have people being seated. The cups that were given to us were dirty and had pieces of dried food on them. At that time, I took my receipt up to the register where the GM Sarah was taking a complaint from another person. When I finally talked to her, I gave her my cups and receipt then expressed in an understanding manner that I get it, you're understaffed. But we had reserved a room with children and they were only able to have one piece of food each at an establishment that we had to pay $13 per kid, ASKING FOR A REFUND ON THE CHILDRENS' MEALS. She was extremely condescending and very rude, but refunded the entire ticket. I went back to the party room and sat with my children, she came into the room announced that more food is ready then said "said oh you stayed to eat". I said "well yea we reserved for this party, all I did was given you a complaint of the long weight for the food and the dirty cups but you resolved it". Her comment in front of the entire party was "a $81 refund for dirty cups?" I told her "my total was only $41, not $81. And I asked you for a discount on the kids prices for them waiting. It was your choice to refund the entire amount. Not mine." Then she continued to be disrespectful to my mother to try to get corporates number and who to contact for the regional. All the aggression was coming from her side, and was completely unprofessional. So no I do not recommend this establishment and will continue to contact corporate. This is ridiculous. read more

The pizza they had out on the buffet looked and tasted old. They later brought of some fresh stuff that was just okay. There wasn't many desert options for a buffet, but there is icecream you can put on your dessert pizzas. They do a good job on cleanliness and keeping food safe during the pandemic. read more

From the dirty plates to nothing on the buffet, just save your money. We waited for 30 min for either cheese breadsticks or cheese pizza. Neither came out while we were there. Original dessert pizza must be pretty hard to make also. 1 dried out piece was there the entire 45 min stay. read more

The food is horrible and the service sucks and there ambiance they don't even try. I can microwave a pizza and do better the food is horrible read more

The experience was okay. The staff was friendly, and the food was okay. There were three buffet tables. One table was for salads, one table had fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and some sides, and the third table had about 4 or 5 different types of pizza along with a couple more as dessert options. I had a plate with salad, chicken, and 3 slices of pizza, but didn't have the desire to go back up for more. It seemed like I had the full experience from that one or two plates. It was difficult to find a fork, but I'm sure Reasonably priced since the drinks are included. The chicken is good but the pizza sucks. The chicken, is, phenomenal. I hope I will have a better experience. read more

We decided to pop into the PR for something quick on Saturday afternoon. Huge shopping day at the mall. The service was terrible. One worker helping customers at the register while others are waiting to be served by the same( and only ) employee up front. She also had an attitude that we were an inconvenience to her being. There were three pizzas to choose from, chicken was cold, gravy had a skin on it, and the dressing with consistency of cottage cheese. YUK. The floors were sticky and tables filthy. I know there is a crunch, but for a $27 lunch, I was robbed. Never will return. Also, I know a lot of people and I talk a lot. Here's your loyalty card back. TheoL read more

They have really good pizza on the buffet and you can even special order pizza with your buffet purchase. They also have ice cream and some of the best fried chicken ever. It's also on the buffet. read more

Came here to check out the chicken was told it was good the piece I got was cold the pizza combinations were intriguing. The gal behind the hot bar was less the customer friendly. No greeting at the door.the girl busser had to be asked to take our dishes while James came around several times and unobtrusively took dishes. Not impressed. read more

3 stars for the Fried Chicken. Everything else wasn't very good. Skip the dessert pizza all together. This place has similar in clientele to Golden Corral. I had a lady jump in front of me and grab a slice of pizza with her hand and then proceed to shove the whole thing in her mouth. read more

Not only is pizza delicious, but the staff was awesome also. I appreciate the fact this is a Christian owned business that has a wonderful mission statement. Doug the Manager was very professional and courteous. This is a place our family will definitely frequent. read more

We just returned from eating at the new pizza (and best) buffet at the mall. Everything was GREAT! Especially their chicken! The service was amazing! We have found our go to place. read more

2 for the rating of food. 5 for the friendliness of the staff. The staff does a great job and service with a smile. The pizza is blah.... similar to your jacks frozen pizza at home. With all the choices of pizza in this town I would say they will have a hard time surviving. Like the other review stated, Golden Corral type atmosphere. read more

Paid 40+ dollars for 3 adult buffets. The veggie pizza was tasteless and what little salad bar option they have was a joke.

Excellent food all around. Pizza is very good but the chicken and all the fixings were fantastic. Location is very convenient for the south side of town and the price was reasonable. We will definitely be back. read more
