    Chicken from the meals they offer with bun, Jo Jo's, and salad.

    They have great pizza's and we grew up with Nick's as one of the best Owatonna pizza options. Tonight we were in the mood for broasted chicken so we thought, why not try Nick's? It was horrible but not just the chicken. The chicken was over done--the photo shows that. In addition it was extremely salty, we couldn't even eat it. It was a $45+ loss. Because Nick's has a reputation in Owatonna, I wanted to share with them how we couldn't even eat the chicken and they should check it themselves before serving more of it tonight...so I called to let them know.... The phone was handed to someone to take my statement--this lady was short with me, cut me off, said they have already served a lot tonight with no complaints, and I was hung up on. It will be a long time before we go back to support Nick's as a small town business, if ever. Worse than the chicken was the customer service. I was asking for nothing but to be heard and that was too much to ask it seems.

    Recommended to go here by a local person, not super impressed. Pizza was good, nothing unique or big flavors. Pizza was very sloppily thrown together, no care (see photo). Guy raging my order repeated everything I said as a question, and got a lot wrong even after I repeated myself numerous times. A nickel-and-dime-ya kinda place too--upcharge for a little extra sauce, no substituting spinach for olives, etc... Good, not great, prices not bad. Better pizza at Taste of the Big Apple and much friendlier.

    Pizza was good. A little doughy in the middle. Wings were bleh. A little pricy for what you get. Service was friendly.

    The buffet was hopping during the lunchtime rush! The staff was kinda. The tables were…read moreefficiently bussed. The buffet options were constantly replenished. I really enjoyed the sesame chicken. That was my first time seeing it at a Pizza Ranch buffet. The caramel apple pecan dessert pizza was tasty! I like that they do seasonal dessert pizzas. I always request a Buffalo chicken pizza upon my arrival at the buffet. The worker brought me the fresh pie to my table to grab a few slices! Then I went back to the buffet to grab more of their best pizza! The chocolate chip cookie was great. I do miss their buffet have butterscotch pudding!

    I didn't think I'd care for this place, as I am pretty picky with my pizza…read more As expected, I didn't care for the pizza much. That's okay, because the piping-hot fried chicken more than made up for it while allowing my two pizzaholic diners to pig out on pizza to their hearts' content. I tried several pizza options as well as side dishes at the chicken buffet bar, but the offerings were fairly mediocre, which was understandable given it is after all a pizza buffet setup so quantity was definitely more name of the game than quality. Even so, pizzas on the menu that currently aren't at the bar could be ordered and made fresh, with slices being delivered to the table and the rest added to the pizza bar rotation - an awesome service and a pizza lover's dream, I'm sure. That chicken, though. Succulent, moist. Crackling-crisp skin that's not overwhelmingly salty. My plates started coming back loaded with nothing but bird, and I was completely happy about it. To end the finger-licking meal, I moseyed on over to the bar of dessert pizzas topped with apple, chocolate, blueberry, and plain icing. Every one of them looked quite appetizing. I'm a chocoholic and was alerted to fact that the chocolate pizza was unusual, so I of course went with chocolate. It was crisp, tender, and delectable enough that I considered getting thirds of that alone. I may have followed through on that thought. The pizza may not be spectacular, but it's a lovely casual space that allows pizza lovers to go to town and offers delectable freshly-fried chicken for those who need a pizza break, so we'll definitely be back soon knowing my two carbaholic tinkerbugs. I hope the chocolate pizza will be there again. Just saying.

It was our 1st time there.. 3 people were standing…read moreat the Bar(bartenders?) they looked at ud and didn't say a word like we weren't the right people. They could of atleast acknowledged us say "let me get u someone" We were at Table 42 and a really nice waitresses Jennye seated us and waited on us. I ordered the Meatball Sub in the menu it said $8.99(i was charged $9.25) Id say it was mediocre sub bun was dry(not from cooking) Meatballs(should give u more) were NOT real they tasted like reheated plant based fake balls and had 0 flavor (could atleast grill bun w butter) cheese tasted old, i ordered Onion rings that tasted freezer or oil burnt or old oil and No seasoning or flavor to breading. Friend had Sampler platter w jelepeno ravioli(Heat was 1 out of 5) dry and over cooked. Mozzerella stix were huge and Good, fries over cooked, mozzerella cheese balls under cooked. They need a Newb and better cook. They should give u choice of 2 sauces I know they are known for their pizza but...Id rather go to Arby's nxt door get a roast beef melt that would have had more flavor.
