Food very good hot not busy early around 5 pretty much self service buffet chicken was really crispy and not greasy

From the reviews i read i Arrived excited to have some good pizza. However i was skeptical after i saw pizza hut scoring higher on the reviews. But nonetheless, i went in with an open mind. Not many people there. Was promptly seated but was unaware that it was serve yourself drinks so i sat there waiting until i saw someone else come back with a drink. I went and got my salad which was almost equivalent to a ruby tuesdays salad bar. Which is good for me. I then got my plate for pizza, which were cut into small pieces and also got some fried chicken. The atmosphere was friendly and bubbly. Pizza was not at all to my liking. I would prefer totinos frozen. However, the fried (broasted) chicken was amazing. I did go back up for seconds of the chicken. There was a ice cream machine and dessert pizzas but i was full on the chicken. Definitely worth the price. $15.99 for dinner buffet that is served 5-8pm. read more

Hostess/Server was SUPER sweet and the food was amazing! Honestly there is nothing special about the items they are serving BUT, they all tasted awesome! Just like the other reviews... for sure try the fried chicken. Just like grandma used to make! read more

We drive through often on our way to Iowa and have always wanted to try this place. It was disappointing, as there was little food nothing was refreshed while we were there, the warm food was crusted and drying what little there was and there was not much selection for pizza. The two stars I gave it was the chicken and the sweet wait staff girl. I wouldn't waste your money. Maybe this would be a different review if we arrived at 11am read more

This unassuming restaurant was across the street from the truck stop in which we got gas. It's in the middle of nowhere. We had no idea what to expect when we walked in and sat down. We were pleasantly surprised. The place is clean, the single waitress on duty treated us like we were famous and the food was fantastic. Far from the "greasy spoon" we were expecting. Of this was in our area of town, we'd visit it quite often. We find some of the coolest places to eat off the beaten path. read more

We're from Colorado, but We always stop when we're in the area. Love the salad bar and the fried chicken is great! Very good buffet.

Doesn't look like much from outside, but what counts is what's on the inside!! It's all your dreams come true if you love Italian Foods. We had lasagna and spaghetti and meatballs. The sauce is amazing. So very yummy, served hot with a garlic breadstick. A very fresh salad bar, cold and crisp. If your traveling Rt 80 through Nebraska, jump off at exit 126. It's directly behind Arbys. You will not be disappointed!! read more

Valentino's Pizza - Best pizza ever - Pizza Near Me - Ogallala, Nebraska

We were driving through and decided to stop. There was no wait and the restaurant had a number of patrons when we arrived. The waitress asked what we wanted for s beverage and then disappeared. Meanwhile I used their restroom, not impressed; wasn't disgusting but wasn't exactly spotless either. After waiting what for me is too long the waitress returned and apologized for forgetting us. I asked for a menu. Glanced through it, asked if they had anchovies to which she replied "no." We decided to just have the buffet. It was edible. Domino's makes better pizza. Although we arrived about two hours before their closing time they were out of mashed potatoes. Most of the rest of the buffet looked to have been there too long. I had a trip through the salad bar. It was okay but poorly arranged. Some items had good flavor. Many were a disappointment. Then I tried the soft serve ice cream. Yuk! It seemed like 1%milk was added to the mix to make it stretch. No chocolate syrup in sight. Two bites and I was all about getting back on the highway. Seriously avoid this place. read more

The marinara with the mosticolli was delicious. Service and food was great! Carryout was fast and efficient.

This is less of a review and more of a warning. it's Italian like the movie Goodfellas, and by that i mean when they made dinner in prison. The front door has no window. Even the front door at Goodwill has a window. The price of this place is similar to what a person would pay for fresh food. Do you like frozen milk? it's what's for dessert. Seriously, the only reason i gave this place two stars is because people work here. At one point Valentino's got a new sign and never replaced the old one, so now both are on the building. Technically, shouldn't it be called Valentino's Valentino's? read more

This is probably my favorite place to eat when I am in Ogallala. The staff are awesome and the pizza is to die for! I have been tempted to make a special trip to Ogallala just for the pizza. I have never tried the buffet, but have heard several comments on how good it is. I just like to get a pizza big enough that I have left over pizza for a couple meals. I always get their pepperoni and pineapple pizza! read more

Ordered pasta for delivery while passing through town and staying at the Holiday Inn. Our meals were quite good and delivery very quick. Highly recommend. read more

We recently came to stay for our first vacation at Lake Mcconaughy and were looking for a decent place to get some takeout food. The time it took them to make the pizza and the quality of the pizza did not match up. It took 20 ish minutes for the pizza and it tasted no better than pizza you get at the grocery store. The pizza was $20 as well which definitely didn't help. Th buffet could be better (we didn't try it), but I do not recommend getting takeout pizza. read more

In selecting a place I WANT to ever eat again, this place gets one star. However, accepting it for what it is, a 3 is more fair. It's a midwestern all-you-can-eat buffet with warm (occasionally hot) American-Italian eats: edible but bland marinara, cold garlic bread, overly sweet desserts, and wilted iceberg lettuce. The floors look like they are 50 years old and more grease spots then carpet. The chairs are classic solid wood. The tables are clean. The one server was very kind and efficient. It's good if that's the kind of place you are looking to be. read more

I've been to many Valentino's buffets over the years and this was the worst one. The buffet was $14.99 (!) for cold pizza, ice milk posing as ice cream, and wilted salad. And then while checking out I was told that I had to pay for the sodas as they weren't included in the price. $15 and you don't get a soda? Incredible. I would highly recommend not stopping here. read more

This is the cutest Italian buffet! The food is so delicious. I love the cheeseburger pizza. There is also American food like chicken tenders and fried chicken. They also have dessert pizzas and ice cream. We went here twice over the weekend! So good and I highly recommend! read more

Run away! Run away quickly! For your own sake! Do not eat here! How does a place like this exist? If anyone has seen restaurant impossible, this place is the worst of the worst. First things first, they have pizza. Not fresh pizza, but pizza. It was cold, sitting on the hot heater thingy. At best I'd call it "room temperature". Food is supposed to be hot at a buffet if it's hot food. And cold if it's cold food! Supposedly they change it fast based on other reviews, but what the hell? This is like the dirtiest looking country bumpkin shack I have ever seen. I don't mean that as an insult to country folk, but I mean that as an insult to any concept of following any concept of food safety. I don't think they even pay attention to the food they are making - they have labels, but the food does not match. They have cheese pizza labeled (important for you know, vegetarians), but put other pizzas there. Do they have any idea what would happen if someone was allergic to pepperoni which they put there instead? How are you going to tell the difference if all you can see on top is a layer of cheese? Sure I can eat meat, it doesn't bother me, but I could see people not being happy with the result here. If you're not going to make another of (pizza labeled on the buffet), leave it empty. At least you know what's there. Also, we went at like 630, and there were a grand total of 3 groups there. Not exactly a vote of confidence for a decent sized town, is it? Nobody should eat here, and the health inspectors would shut this place down in 5 seconds if they saw the stuff I saw when I unfortunately happened to eat here. Are you supposed to put out 2-3 day old labeled bulk food? Doesn't exactly sound like quality to me. At least it wasn't bulk mayonnaise or I would have walked out the door. I took a pepto just to make sure that I didn't get food poisoning. I feel really sorry for the cute married girl who is the cashier, because I don't know if there are other jobs available in a region like this. Yes they have lasagna, pizza, salad, etc. No it doesn't look anything like the picture. If the picture is way too good to be true, that should give you an idea of what this place is like on the inside. If you value your stomach, do not ever eat here. Starve if you must. Are other valentino's this bad? I have no idea. This is the only one I've ever been to. So maybe it's an exception? read more

Food was not worth the price. Almost all of the food (pizza, salad, pasta) was almost, if not completely, out. They also charged us for our drinks, which is not customary for other Valentinos I have been to. The service was okay, but the food and atmosphere was very poor. read more

We were on a cross country trip and we stopped here overnight and called this restaurant to place a order..the man who answer identified his self as a employee at the restaurant took our order and told us 30mins it will be ready we show up at the restaurant and the white lady tell us we didn't place a order and they are closed and we needed to leave we did leave but she rushed to lock that door like we was trying to rubbing her...mind you we have 5 kids to feed so disappointed read more

Pizza was good. Building is a little run down. Kids enjoyed all the pizza and ice cream. Wait staff was good also.

Valentino's was recommended by someone at the RV park where we were staying as we traveled along I-80. I hate to say anything bad about it because it's obviously a very popular eatery for local families (lots of kids in tow) but I found it all very mediocre and priced rather high. We ate the pizza buffet and while many of the pizzas were cooled off, the pizzas I DID try were good with a crust that reminded me of Bisquick and pie crust combined. Not bad, just different tasting. The staff was very friendly and there was certainly a big selection of veggies and salads and different pizzas. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for pizza. My friend, however, enjoyed her meal and thought everything was tasty. I think I would try to find another place if I were visiting this area again. read more

Maybe it's the nostalgic feeling I get since I've been coming here as a kid for the past 15years, but this place is always dependable and good This place is a must stop after being at the lake and eating hotdogs and burgers for days on end- perfect carb fix. Get there little after 11am when the first pizzas start rolling out. You have your choice of everything from taco pizza to meat lovers and vegetarian (all good) and all have a unique buttery, flaky crust. Hot lasagna and assorted pastas are perfect on a cold day, there is also a salad bar and deserts, all for around $9/lunch. Place is clean, service is very friendly. Excellent place to bring the kids or grab a quick bite while passing through town. read more

I went here with my son and a friend and the pizza was great. Lots of options, the only change I would like to see is, making sure the breadsticks were warmed. Other than that, I enjoyed coming here and if in the area I would definitely come here again. read more

This is my 1st ever Yelp review, but this place is so bad i couldn't not warn others. Ordered the baked manicotti with "meat sauce" and a "pepperoni" pizza. The portion sizes are very small. The marinara sauce on the manicotti was no more than tomato paste mixed with water ... a far cry from any home made authentic recipe. I think I found 2 or 3 pebbles of hamburger in the meat sauce. Then to top it off the pizza was only a cheese pizza - the bill and receipt verified they got my order right and they charged me for the pepperoni topping but not a single pepperoni on the pizza. Bill was $30. I am so So regretting "going local" trying to support a local business - not to mention the 15% tip I threw in on my carry-out (because of vivid). read more

We were camped nearby at the KOA Tri-Trails and decided to have pizza delivered to our campsite. The word DELICIOUS best describes their pizza! We also ordered a mini apple fruit pizza for dessert.... I only wish we had ordered a larger one! It was scrumptious! If passing through this area again, we'd definitely order food from Valentino's. It's no wonder they've been in business for over 60 years. read more

Not sure about the low reviews, but we had a great time at Valentino's. I brought with me 13 boy scouts and 6 adults. We were looking for a reasonable cost pizza buffet on our way back to Dallas, TX, from summer camp in SD. While the cost was a little higher than we originally budgeted, the pizza was great with a wonderful variety and nice salad bar. The manager immediately dropped by upon our arrival; he was friendly and accommodating. We called an hour ahead and they kept up with demand of our hungry boys. You guys rocked it! Wonderful serving staff and remained attentive til the end. Also met up with a fellow Wood Badger while we were there. Only downside was the single stall in the men's bathroom. Pull one urinal and replace with a stall please. read more
