And still no cookies

Did not get my bread in time I was waiting for 15 minutes at least yall need to get more employees to get cactus bread and cookies. Out in time!

The carnage

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

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

Cactus Bread
Jaicyann J.

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.

Fortunately it was large enough to satisfy both of us plus enough left over for almost another meal. At the end, we just looked at each other, smiled, and agreed it was right up there with the very best pizzas we have EVER had. And we're both in our 70s. We've had A LOT OF PIZZAS. We will be back again and again.

It's decked out with live plants, some comfortable booths and some tables. It's an attractive space with a good view of the kitchen. It's a solid little space. We ordered the house salad, which is tossed in buttermilk ranch dressing and it's super delicious. Such a great salad to start with before the pizzas. It's large enough for 3 people to share, as there were 2 of us and we had some left over to take home. Brian Olsen has pizza on lock! He is a master at his craft. These pizzas have an amazing flavor, terrific crust and quality ingredients. They serve burgers and a chicken sandwiche, too! We ordered 3 different pizzas... one with garlic cream sauce and green peppers, one with pepperoni, sausage & red peppers and another specialty pizza with the hot honey & arugula with pepperoni and Calabrian chili's. Man, that was some good Za!! Claire was our server and she was terrific, too! Clearing dirty plates, refreshing silverware and beverages. Terrific attitude! All in all, Bettendorf has an amazing pizza restaurant that the locals should be grateful for in their own neighborhood! And, Smash serves beer, wine, and cocktails, too. I wish I lived closer. I'd become a regular and dine in often! Whenever I'm back in town, I'll be sure to stop by to try some different specialty pies, like the elote pie. That one sounded really good! So did the za with wild mushroom & kale!! Maybe one day Smash will create a taco pizza to compete with Happy Joe's, rip Joe Whitey. But, seriously, there is no comparison between the two. Smash is hands down one of the best pizza restaurants in the QC's and is better that many BIG city pizza spots. Thanks for the good time, great food & service!!

Harris Pizza is a popular chain of mostly take-out restaurants, specializing in Quad-City style…read morepizza. This location in Bettendorf was the only one I could find that supports dine-in, which is what my wife and I wanted. Later we found out that they had just reopened their dining room earlier in the year (it had been closed since Covid). Harris Pizza started as a neighborhood liquor store in 1960, owned by the Harris family. The Quad-City style of pizza was created by Mary Harris, with many of the important pieces (a hand tossed crust infused with malt and molasses, a spicy tomato sauce with pepper flakes, a heavy dose of end to end toppings underneath a thick layer of mozzarella cheese, and slices being long rectangular pieces) being attributed to her. It expanded to multiple locations around the Quad Cities (really five cities: Davenport IA, Rock Island IL, Moline IL, East Moline IL, Bettendorf IA...though the more correct moniker of Quint Cities never caught on), including this fifth location in Bettendorf. We came for an early dinner. One orders and pays at the counter, with the food being delivered to the table. We ordered a small size Hawaiian Pizza ($17.77) ordered well done, waffle fries ($6.50), fried cheese curds ($10.50 plus $1.35 extra for marinara dipping sauce). I got a Yuengling Lager in a bottle ($4.75). They also offer Hank's gourmet soda in bottles, with vanilla cream ($2.27) being what my wife chose. The food came in waves, with the waffle fries being first. They were outstanding, not overly battered or seasoned but fried to perfection. The cheese curds were really good too, a healthy amount and served piping hot, great to dip in the OK marinara. The pizza came last, and it indeed was more than enough for two with a very thick layer of cheese. The ham had been put under the cheese, but the canned pineapple bits were on top. My wife and I agreed that it was a really good pizza, though I would have loved it if it had been cooked even a bit longer than the well done (maybe ask for it extra well done next time?). Just like a tavern style cut, all the pieces are not the same size so one can be picky in getting a crust heavy piece vs a toppings heavy one. Either way, it is quite filling. The value is outstanding and the service was prompt and friendly throughout. The small pizza (with a ton of toppings and cheese) was more than enough for the two of us, with about half of it still to be eaten. I can now say I've done a Yelp review for a Quad-City Pizza: it was great and the sides were excellent, too.

This is a very nice place clean, well decorated and seemed to be a real shame not to be able to eat in. We live around St. Louis and are not able to get there very often, but when we do we order 1 to eat there and one to take home! This is the best pizza around and also Franks in Silvis Illinois. Can't say how much of a treat this is! We were not disappointed yesterday the pizzas were fantastic! The lady that waited on us was super nice and very helpful. Can't wait for the next time we are back!

We stopped in yesterday for a late lunch. The name of the place didn't inspire a lot of…read moreconfidence, but it was a fairly typical pizza/bar establishment - TVs, bar tables and stools, sports logos. The service was great - the server talked to our kids like they were people and was extremely friendly and attentive. Drinks never made it to empty. We had the bad boyz bread and a pepperoni and sausage pizza. The bread was cheese and garlic sauce on one of their pizza crusts and was delicious. The pizza was our first Quad Cities style pizza experience and it too was delicious. We left extremely full and extremely happy. It was a very low key vibe - good for kids, not too loud, and in general very casual. We'll definitely be back when we swing through the area.

There was some kind of a party going on inside so we decided to sit outside. The waiter was decent, and seemed knowledgeable about the menu. I wasn't sure if I wanted the garlic chicken pizza or the chicken fajita pizza. He said definitely the garlic chicken pizza. Since we walked to the restaurant from our hotel, I also had a Long Island iced tea. I wouldn't say the food was bad. However, I could neither see nor taste any garlic on my garlic chicken pizza. I could see and taste the chicken, peppers, and onions. I was not able to pick up any hint of garlic. One of the other coaches tried some of my pizza. He said he thought it could use a little something to give it a bit more flavor. I agreed. Maybe some garlic would have helped? My Long Island iced tea also tasted fine. However, I have to question the alcohol content. I drank it in less than half an hour and didn't feel a thing. I decided not to get another one. At $8.88 per drink, I didn't think it was worth it. I want to stress that the food and drinks we got tasted fine. I just didn't feel like I got what I ordered. We had a good time out on the patio, so the time wasn't wasted, but I highly doubt I'll be going back. I didn't take any photos because I wasn't expecting to do review. After thinking about it for a while, I decided people would want to know about my experience there. What do you think? Was this review helpful?

We were barely seated when they began taking drink orders--super efficient and friendly service right from the start. I tried the Cherry Bomb Blonde beer and really enjoyed it--light and flavorful. The servers worked as a team and got everyone's orders in quickly, which is impressive for a group our size. We started with the pretzel bites and beer cheese, which were a definite 10/10--warm, soft, and perfectly paired with the cheese. We also shared a hamburger pizza, and really appreciated the thin crust and how the hamburger was broken up into small pieces. The sauce was sweet, and we would've loved just a little more of it (or maybe some on the side for dipping). We're not from the area, but if we were, this would definitely be a regular spot. I've included pictures of the BLT pizza and the jalapeño pineapple pizza that others in our group ordered--both got great reviews too. Overall, fast and friendly service, especially impressive for a large group, and the food was delicious. Highly recommend!
