We had a great time here. My son is 12 and this was right up his alley. The service was outstanding. All the guests were happy and satisfied. There were three birthday parties going on. The establishment had private rooms for larger parties. They have a series of pizza pies with interesting flavors in addition to your cheese or pepperonis. I was stoked with the salad bar and chicken bar. Fried chicken mash potato and chicken gravy. I didn't even mind the canned green beans and corros. A little salt and pepper it was all good. The dessert pizzas was good as well. Everyone was making Root beer floats and Icecream cones. All the kiddos were so happy. Next was read more

See all

This time the first chicken breast was tough. Then trying another a little later it was tender. They seem to be running hit and miss on this anymore. The salad bar was good. Tried to get some cheese pizza strips to have with our salad and the pan was empty. Never did see it refilled. Never saw the dessert bar pans refilled. They were about empty I noticed when walked in. When up to get some towards the end of our meal and they were all basically empty. This was a noon hour during the week this week. They seem to be falling down a bit. read more

Pizza Ranch - And still no cookies - Pizza Near Me - Bettendorf, Iowa

Pizza Ranch: the review. Buckle up. The last piece of desert pizza was a mistake. So there I was, I was at 89% capacity, my body surpassing caloric excess 6 slices ago, and the secretin in my body completely outrun by my ambition. Currently, the swell of dough, cheese, chicken, and shards of iceberg lettuce has put such a strain on my belly that my breathing has toggled into manual mode. I'm recruiting accessory muscles to get a full breath, as my stomach has colonized excess real estate in my chest cavity, and my lungs have retreated in fear. "I'm scared to stand up" -Josh, who ate as much as I did. I don't want to hear about the quality of the food. Thats not why you're here. You're here for cheese that's baked on a circle of bread. You're here because there's a ton of it. And no one, NO ONE dare stop you. It's only you, the pizza, and your wits. They also have salad, if that helps you sleep at night. All you need to know about the food: Virtually Infinite. That is guaranteed. I cannot guarantee that your servers will be a patrol of child volunteers who were too young to file W2's but not too young to be paid in pizza. I don't know where the child labor was sourced from, but these 8-12 year olds wouldn't let an empty plate rest for longer than 15 seconds. This is no exaggeration, we timed it. Impeccable. I want to be clear that I do not suspect Pizza Ranch to be harboring child slaves. I simply wasn't briefed on the situation, which garnished the good ol Midwest buffet experience with a state of slightly delightful confusion. Keep in mind that the ambiance is on par with a cafeteria, so it feels as if the rules of restaurant apply a little bit less. But then again, we're out on the ranch read more

Denies Williamson is a very thoughtful and helpful Manager. Always pleasant with customers and helps them if she can. I believe she goes above and beyond what's expected of her. I'd give a 10 if the review had that rating. The food is okay but a little expensive for Seniors. The cleanliness Is okay and I love that they keep the ranch theme going on through the restaurant. Wish the children were attended more by their parents and not running around. Again I believe Denies Williamson is a great representative for your restaurant. read more

Very underrated buffet, the chicken is the STAR...!! One of my favorite spots to eat with great service.

This food was so delicious it really was a blessing to my taste buds. I feel like a new person after eating the delicious, crunchy, sensational chicken! The staff was amazing. 10/10 would recommend. The cookies were so warm, creamy, and just melted in my mouth! Although I thoroughly enjoyed this meal. My bathroom won't later! SORRY ROOMYS! #blowingitup read more

DROP DEAD DELICIOUS! As soon as you walk through the doors of this fire restaurant, you will be delighted by an incredible aroma from the countless array of food choices. But the fun doesn't stop there, this location specifically really out did themselves. The arcade room is nothing less than a blast(do be aware, it is a money eater). Run, don't walk and come see for yourself!! If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would. Couldn't be happier to be a Pizza Ranch lover. I will be making another appearance for my Birthday dinner! Absolutely slapped. BIG PUR FOR PIZZA RANCH read more

The rumors are true, I am back and better then ever. Y'all probably thought I either A) died B) stopped eating out C) got drafted to war... luckily none of that happened and I'm just lazy. I have some reviews coming your way but for now let's get into it. As Cardi b once said "gobble me, swallow me, drip down the side of me" ... that's how I feel about this places dessert pizza. If there was 60 fans I would be 1 if there was were 2 fans I would be 1 and if there were no fans I would be dead. Overall so good. As a yelper though I have to be honest, the business as a whole isn't a 5 star, it's good just not top tier. This cactus pizza though carry's the establishment it's golden perfection, it's amazing icing so warm and delightful, the Crumbl that just gives you hope that life will get better... and it does get better, when dipped in their vanilla soft serve it's just warms you soul even more. Overall go there and order a dessert pizza, it doesn't need to be the buffet simply give it a chance. read more

Pizza Ranch - Cactus Bread - Pizza Near Me - Bettendorf, Iowa

went in for lunch. pizza is so so. crust is soft and doughy and doesn't taste homemade. toppings are ok but not great. red sauce is tangy. not many pizzas with vegetables. mostly meat and meat pizza. at least it's fresh and hadnt been sitting there too long. chicken was pretty good. crispy and fresh. salted skin. home fried potato chips were a treat salad bar was well stocked but the dressings are just store brands, nothing that good. Dorothy Lynch etc. $14 bucks for lunch. definitely not terrible and I know kids would love it. if you want great pizza don't go here. the chicken is better than the pizza. the salad bar is as good as most others and the side dishes were ok, like Golden Corral. read more

This restaurant was the highlight of my day. I felt like I was at a real ranch! I walked in wearing my cowboy hat and got so many compliments. What a friendly crowd! my soccer coaches were dancing around the room because they loved their food so much! I played twenty games at the arcade and won all of them. What luck! Such a great experience. Will return! read more

Pizza Ranch - PIZZA RANCH'S #1 FANS - Pizza Near Me - Bettendorf, Iowa

great food poor attitude. I mean multiple times you'll wait for chicken to come out when it's the best part.

If you like average pizza, okay fried chicken, and a loud atmosphere, you will like Pizza Ranch. The pizza is just okay, nothing special and barely above a good frozen pizza at home. Their fried chicken is good when it is fresh, but several times I have noticed that the oil in the fryers is past needing changed, you can taste old, burned oil in fried foods. Because of our work schedules, we go at off times a lot, between 2pm and 5pm, and the pizza sits until it is inedible. On our last 2 visits, the desert pizza has been sitting so long it was hard as a rock and inedible. The entire hour we were there, they never changed the desert pizza's, and only brought out 1 new pizza for the buffet. We complained via the online survey because we could not find a manager, and they never followed up. The salad bar is probably the best option they have to offer. It has a large selection and is usually stocked and fresh. read more

Upon checking the hours from a Friday night 7/13/23 we arrived a 8pm. Ordered our pizzas and took our seats. Within ten minutes we had our drinks and started getting a few sides before our main pizza came out hot. The manager on duty said from behind the counter where the door to the kitchen is that we're closing at 8:30. I said it says 9pm on your website. She said she knew. I'm thinking to myself at this point, why didn't the checker employee give me the heads up we we're spending $30 for 30 minutes at an all you can eat buffet? My granddaughter had one piece of pizza, some mashed potatoes and corn and I had 4 slices and we both got a small dish of ice cream. Not worth the money in our case. Horrible way to find out that the customer service wasn't thinking about my satisfaction as a consumer. We still had fun but I'll be sure to advise the state's attorney general's office about the incompetent leadership. read more

Definitely not a four star pizza, but it was edible and I don't really have any complaints. It's cheap with generous portions.

A very good pizza buffet, prices are very reasonable although they just raised them. Always have hot food out and always rotating the pizza around. Good value for money read more

Great fried chicken. (If this were a fried chicken restaurant, it might just earn the 5 stars)... The pizza is just ok... not horrible, but not something I'd go out of my way for. The buffet is pretty much ALWAYS crowded if you go for dinner. The cactus dessert pizza is very sugary, and very good if you're into sugary sweet desserts. I've never eaten in, because the buffet is not calling to me, and the crowds make it completely uninviting in my book. However, I can say that if you call ahead for your order, it's pretty cool that you can just drive up and pick it up at the window... that is my preference since I just don't enjoy crowds. They'll let you order at the window too, but you'll have to come back in another 20 minutes or so for pickup. read more

What an experience. Pizza Ranch is unlike any other buffet I've ever went to. It served all kinds of pizza, and more. It also had other products such as salads, chicken, and mashed potatoes. Unlike other buffets, this one found and achieved the fine line between having great fresh food, and not wasting any. Pizzas appeared and disappeared on a regular basis. Every time you went back, there was always something different. The cheesy bread itself was very good. It did have an unorthodox shape, but was convenient to eat. It had rich flavor, and an abundant amount of cheese. All the pizzas I tried were vastly different, from buffalo chicken to taco pizza. Even the desserts were new and hot, which increased the flavor. The establishment was very clean too, and the staff was helpful and nice. One employee even went out of her way to inform everyone that the ice cream machine was operational. Apparently it was previously broken. Essentially, Pizza Ranch is like Cici's pizza. However, in every way it outclasses it. I recommend coming here during the lunch rush. When it's busy, that's when the pizzas switch out often, resulting in them being hot. That's when you'll get your best experience. I recommend this place to anyone. read more

Food was good. Most of the food and pizza tasted fresh but some of the pizza tasted like it had been sitting out for a while. Quiet, clean, and friendly staff. Have only been to pizza ranch this one time. We have one in our area but I never went because every said it's not very good. But this location I can will go back to when we are in the area. read more

Wanted to order after a long drive from Southern California. Placed my order online and was called a while later to be told they do not deliver in the snow. They got kind of annoyed when I canceled the order and didnt want to go pick it up. We were driving in a moving truck which is not the easiest to find parking. read more

So so fare. Harris and Happy Joes are a much better alternative. They do have a wide variety of flavors but nothing special! Their chicken is supposed to be raved about, but stick with Cornel Cluckcluck! Cheaper and better! Ours was very greasy. read more

Pizza ranch is the best all you can eat pizza and more buffet I've ever had! Just had the Mac N Cheese pizza for the first time and loved it! They'll make any pizza for you and bring it to your table at no extra charge. Sometimes there are a lot of kids running around but that doesn't take away a star. 5 stars! read more

I really enjoyed the delicious food they served here. It's a mix of pizza and fried chicken with sides like potatoes and corn. The dessert was my favorite. It was really crowded when I went;however, they managed to keep it really clean. I think the food needed more flavor and spices but overall a good little buffet. read more

We recently ate at this location for the first time and I was very impressed! The buffet had more/different foods than another Pizza Ranch location we've been to. We had the buffet but ordered 2 pizzas not on the buffet when we were asked if we'd like to do so. They came out quickly! The staff was very friendly and the food was great. The atmosphere was also nice. We will return. read more

So we were supposed to be eating at Pizza Ranch for the family reunion this week. Until one of my family members, visited Yelp saw these bad reviews for Pizza Ranch and changed locations as a result. The Quad Cities is very particular when it comes to pizza and home to many family owned local pizza places. I would take many of these reviews with a grain of salt, some people just don't like change. I mean, Vicky J's also gave crust great review, means she is probably from Bettendorf and a lil snobbish. I for one, loved pizza ranch, thin crust buffalo chicken pizza was great. The worst part about any buffet is when they don't have what you want! That's not an issue at Pizza Ranch, Everyone gets to order a pizza of their choice, and it is brought to them first, before being placed on the buffet. This place is always packed because people love it. My dad also received such great service from an nice young man, he tipped him 5 dollars. Pizza Ranch nor many buffets are not places where you give tips, but it was absolutely necessary, the service was that great. Don't knock it till you try and and don't let these other reviews prevent you from going there!!!! read more

Great all you can eat pizza, salad, fried chicken, and dessert pizza and ice cream to top it off. The staff makes sure that customers get the best experience, and even deliver free personal pizzas by request which is very helpful when trying to eat vegetarian. Drinks included. Reasonable prices, senior and kid rates. Free quiet private rooms that can be reserved that makes a fun party! The owners seems like they go out the way to address customer concerns and are encouraging, honest, and kind. Strong values and amazing food. read more

The point of there favorites to order at the beginning, is to get some. I ordered my favorite, got 2 pieces, which are the size of 1 real piece, keep that in mind. After waiting over 20 minutes, I asked the waitress if they were going to be bringing any more out. She said that they normally make two at a time, so they can bring the second one out. In my opinion she should have gone back and asked after I had been waiting that long. After another 10 minutes they did finally bring one out, as I sat there and watch her come out, got up. But by the time I walked 20 feet there it was gone from the people that were standing there waiting for something decent to come out. As I watched over those 30 minutes, hardly anyone was grabbing any pizza, due to most of it being there for a long period of time and was rubbery. I actually did try one of the pieces and it tasted like rubber. The only way I will ever go back is if I order pizzas for our table. Which defeats the buffet choices for some and price! read more

Absolutely love Pizza Ranch. We like to go on Tuesday nights since it is kids night and they get to eat free. IF you don't go on a Tuesday then it is 0.80 cents multiplied by the age of the child so we only pay $1.60 for my two year old to eat off the buffet. The fried chicken is good and so is the pizza. They also have a salad bar, dessert pizza and ice cream. The servers are very nice, we like Tiffany! We enjoy the fact that if you don't see a pizza you like on the buffet you can always request something you like or one off of the menu. Just FYI - go for their rewards card if you plan on going there quite a bit like us! read more

I was really excited one was opening here after eating at a Pizza Ranch in Wisconsin a few years ago and really enjoying it. I was quite perturbed when I walked into this one however. They attack you with Christianity at every inch of the place. Prayer on the wall in the entrance. By the registers. Crosses as decoration. If you are not SUPER Christian, you may feel uncomfortable. Heck, even if you are SUPER Christian you may feel overwhelmed. The service was mediocre. There was a line when we walked in, and only one girl on register who seemed to be new/unable to use it. Finally another girl came up and was slightly more skilled. The girl who waited on us at our table was unable to move between the tables without bumping into everything. She spilled more than one drink while we were there. The food is not good. Hardly any vegetarian options and their "salad" area had wilty lettuce. I was quite disappointed/disgusted with this place. read more

Surprised by all the bad reviews. We enjoy coming here as a family. They make the pizzas to order. It's not the best pizza in the world, but the specialty pizzas are pretty good. We like the crispness of the buffalo chicken. The taco pizza is better with the sauce and Tabasco. The salad bar is kept fresh and the other items like fried chicken and waffle fries provide a good variety. The staff is always very courteous and helpful. read more

Ate here to try it out. Not bad for a buffet place. The chicken was good but the pizza could use some spicing up a bit. Pizza was ok but cardboardy. I did enjoy the dessert pizza. Staff was helpful and nice. Took dirty plates from your table right away. Out of 10 I would give it a 5. Would like to maybe see a different dough recipe used maybe. And the price is kinda high for the quality of food you get. read more

For a Pizza buffet , the place is great. You can ask for your favorite Pizza , and you will be served the first slice of the fresh Pizza. Pizza quality is Ok, appropriate for a buffet. Fried chicken is excellent. Dessert was great. Staff was helpful and nice. read more

I have heard of Pizza Ranch but never been until my boss took me a couple of days ago. I love the fact that even tho it's a buffet, you still tell them your favorite pizza and they will make that pizza fresh and bring it to your table so that you can have the first slice of the fresh pizza. I love that idea. I was told how good the fried chicken is there and honestly I didn't even want to try it because I'm at a PIZZA restaurant....I'm so glad I tried it. It was amazing. I was very impressed with the chicken! But the best momemt was when I tried the dessert pizza...OMG! VERY GOOD!! It melted in my mouth. The blueberry was my favorite but the apple is great too!! I see alot of reviews about the crowd. I went for lunch around noonish and it wasn't crowded. Alot of people but got seated right away and didn't have to wait in lines for food or to pay! I would definitly visit again! read more

First time. Just placed an order for a small chicken broccoli Alfredo skillet crust pizza, a cheesy bread stick (that was only an additional $2.99 to add on, awesome!), and a fountain pop. I normally wouldn't leave a review before I tried the food but I loved the service over the phone. the lady that answered, sounded like Erica but with a "T" I think, was so very nice, jovial, and patient! I have ordered delivery a lot and I can tell you I rarely get anyone who is jovial and happy while taking my order so for that alone I give 5 stars. For some background on the phone call: I am the slowest order giver when it is my first time ordering bc I ask a million and 1 questions, I ask for their recommendation, 'do she honestly like it?', 'How would you order it?' etc. This lady was so nice and patient and not just that, HAPPY to answer my questions! A+ phone service for "Erica" with a "T". read more
