Paid $57 for a half filled buffet. My daughter is eating ice cream with a fork because no spoons are available. My wife never got her potatoes and gravy. Update: Responded to response to google review and GM(through and employee..never spoke to me to apologize) offered 15% off my next buffet. So I only have to pay 85% of full price for a 50% filled buffet. Never again. 2 stars have now become 1. A picture is worth a thousand words. Here is 4. read more

Great food and friendly staff. Especially love the chicken. Only complaint - has gotten a little pricey

While their pizzas aren't the best in the area, they're tasty and the buffet is hard to beat. We stopped in for lunch. Ask for the senior discount! I asked for a buffalo chicken ranch on the buffet. The buffet comes with a drink. Check out both dispensers. They offer different options. My request came to our table in about 10 minutes. Super good. For us chow hounds, it's a good choice. Expect to hear Christian music. read more

Got here at 3:45 on Sunday afternoon they close at 4 but had plenty of pizza and chicken and salad bar but the selection wasn't great for pizza and it was almost cold . I get it, Sunday and almost time to close but definitely not worth $37.00 for 2 people and they pretty much pushed us out the door at 4:05. I've had better frozen pizza at home , will not waist my time and money there again. read more

Forgot to mention I love that they play Christian music here and the staff are very kind and helpful. Good prices. Food never disappoints. Small selection but it makes the quality high. read more

It's called pizza ranch, the pizza is buffet style with at least 8 to choose from, and they are all Very good and they will make it your way, you only have to ask. They also have a salad buffet with a lot of toppings. They have a separate buffet of Broasted chicken (outstanding), mashed potatoes with gravy, potato wedges, kernel corn, string beans, and a few other items. Drinks included, coke products, coffee, soft serve ice cream, iced tea, in a facility that is clean. All of this, for a reasonable cost, that is comparable with any other dining venue, anywhere. This is my first and favorite place to eat. The staff is very accommodating to the customer and they are busy busing the tables, and keeping the buffet bars, and facilities clean. I like to leave a tip, every time I visit, it's getting really hard to make ends meet. read more

Came in here on a Sunday at 2 PM for lunch. Although it was Father's Day, it was a little crazy but not too busy. The staff tried to keep up with the demand and I think they did pretty well considering it was busy. Salad bar was clean & replenished often as well as the pizzas, they were always hot and everybody enjoyed their meal. For $50 for three people & all you can eat, you can't go wrong. read more

Pizza Ranch - Pizza ranch sign - Pizza Near Me - Roscoe, Illinois

This Pizza ranch was a little smaller than most. The salad bar was very low on salad and several condiments. I also noted the pizza on the buffet was cold and very unappetizing. Service was slow and they hardly had any staff. Management looked poor or lacking! read more

First off, the staff are very accommodating and knowledgeable with questions I had. Although I am not really a pizza person their pizza is good. The breadsticks however are phenomenal, super cheesy, and hot. The restaurant was clean considering how busy it was and the employees kept up with the buffets. read more

I give this place 5 stars. It's clean, food is excellent. Great prices & they serve a beautiful buffet with awesome staff. ESPECIALLY the big guy who brings out the food. Guy is a true hero. He speaks & is so respectful to everyone. Guy has class which us forgotten in today's service. This was my first time here. Front desk clerk was awesome. 5 star food all the way. Happy place to be 100%. This place is for everybody. I'm a 10+ year Navy Veteran & a Political Scientist. read more

Come on people. It's a Sunday, busy, please keep the chicken filled up! And salad, and salad dressings! Also they now have chocolate chip cookies but not for me! Gone. At least the ice cream machine was working. Things take too long to be refilled. read more

Good price. Good selection. Fresh rotation of pizzas. Place is split into 3 tables: salad, pizza, and misc country. Drinks included in price: lunch 14 and change, dinner 15 and change. Salad bar could have used some love is only reason. Still worth going back to read more

Fantastic buffet place! The fried chicken is amazing, pizzas are excellent, salad bar is fresh. I like that you can order a custom pizza as well, even though the buffet is generally well stocked with fresh pizzas. Always pleased with the quality of the food. Great staff, nice decor and general vibe of the place too. read more

I love coming and trying the different types of pizzas I especially love their fried chicken as does the rest of my family. It's great they have a salad bar to balance off all the pizza and chicken! read more

Best fried chicken, sides and salad bar. The food is delicious. Home made chips, fried wedge potatoes, mashed potatoes with gray. Oh my! When you pay , you request the pizza if your choice and they give you a number. When it's ready they let you know it's on the buffet ready for you. The salad bar is big and has everything. So good! They close early on Sunday. I was disappointed when I got there at 3 and they were closing. read more

Pretty durn good place .... I will visit again. Chicken was amazingly moist..... Salad bar...good selections. Pizza was good..dessert pizza amazing... read more

Used to be great. Now it's horrible. You used to be able to order any kind of pizza to be delivered to your table for however many pieces you wanted - including dessert pizza (which was good, because the blueberry one was rarely available and when it was, it ran out right away). No more. They seem to have an area for dessert pizzas where they could have a few out at a time, but I've never seen it used - there is just one dessert pizza out on the main pizza bar. I have 3 kids who only eat cheese pizza, so I asked for that only to be told that it's always out on the buffet (guess what - IT WASN'T). They used to have these delicious homemade chips that my son LOVED, but haven't seen them for ages. The last time we were there, where the chicken is supposed to go they had two big trays of beets. BEETS??? Went for a birthday dinner - there were 10 of us - and we got pointed to two different booths across from each other. The back rooms were closed up, which would have easily sat us much more comfortably. We recently went to a Pizza Ranch in Iowa, and it was MUCH BETTER. They could take a lesson from other Pizza Ranches - more room, cleaner, better variety, and they had no problem ordering us a cheese pizza to be delivered to our table! read more

expensive for the quality of food, no trash can available, the icecream cups were ketchup cups, poorly cooked pizza, chicken, and breadsticks, bathroom stall doors dont lock, barley any food selection, not worth the price. read more

Bob4, says this is my favorite place for lunch or dinner. My wife likes it too, but not as much. This is a buffet style of dining. There is a nice selection of good tasting pizza's and they do requests. There is a nice selection at the salad bar, too. But mainly I go there for the chicken! MMMM GOOD! The selection at the chicken bar, has a good variety. I like going there shortly after it opens for the day, this way I can have a quiet lunch before the place fills up with kids who think they are at McDonalds. The last few times I have been there the place is kept clean because the staff seems to be taking care of the place. They must have been told that it's part of their job. read more

Agree with Royce. Great service, hearty comfort food. Broasted chicken and thin crust pizza served buffet style. Parking could be an issue from time to time. The employees check faithfully with the patrons to see if they need anything - nice touch. Restaurant is kept clean and neat, even while busy. Great for kids. read more

beautiful variety of pizza's. Their fried chicken is absolutely amazing and their desert pizza's are good and the waiters were attentive and kind 10/10 recommend read more

Food: Salad bar - (which I didn't try but looked like you could make a basic but variety style salad) Pizza - they have a bar that carried around 8 pizza options. pizza's are smaller which is no complain! in some cases the replacement of pizza's was repeated styles/flavors. They had one dessert style pizza which wasn't very appealing but as I gave in, it wasn't bad. Pizza was overall basic. It reminds me of Papa Johns meets Little Cesars but with a twist. (it's to be expected, I'm not complaining, but don't get your hopes up if your thinking different). Other - they had biscuits which were so flaky and buttery! chicken tastes great however they lacked in re-stocking the bbq flavored chicken. Sadly I wasn't able to get my hands on the breadsticks, and at one point they had potatoes wedges. green beans and mashed potatoes & gravy were also available. Very busy on a Saturday evening. Feels a little crowded and small. They seat you down. You may leave your plates on table & someone is constantly walking by taking them away. Staff is constantly restocking food except some foods were not as fast in being replaced. read more

This Pizza Ranch is like all the others. Any kind of pizza you can imagine on Buffett, fried chicken, potato wedges, soft serve ice cream, salad, and all high schoolers running the dining room. The nice thing about this place is that you can order any type of pizza to be made specially for you. They bring it right to your table when it's done. Chicken is usually hot and very crispy, salad is, well it's salad nothing special. My favorite pizza is the chicken, bacon, ranch and I like the cheesy bread. Don't expect much other than all you can eat average pizza and chicken. read more

I'm giving it 2 stars only because the busses were attentive. The food is mediocre at best. There was only one pizza option without meat and it consisted of tomatoes, spinach and cheese; no sauce. My granddaughter 's pizza with meat was without sauce too. The salad bar was shredded iceberg lettuce and the veggies and dressing were actually bland. The best part of the meal was the little cup of soft serve ice cream and for $12 a head, it was my first and last trip there. read more

Was not a good experience. I'd been here before and it's always been a nice place to eat. Tonight was the worst. We live 45 minutes away and called to find out what time they close. The recording says 10:00 pm. We get there at 7:30 pm and told the buffet will be closing at 8:00! We decide to stay. Paid the FULL PRICE FOR 3 ADULTS. Soon the manager comes over asking if were almost finished, standing around us, hovering, telling us they will be closing soon. No more fresh food is being brought out any more. Waite staff were walking by rolling their eyes, whispering and asking each other are we almost finished. Heres the thing. Change the recording on the phone and give customers the correct hours of operation to plan and dine in peace without having management and Waite staff hovering over you. The manager says Corporate knows as well as his GM, that the recording is misleading, but theres nothing being done. Had I gotten upset and made a scene after paying full price for a meal I couldn't sit and eat in peace, I would have been the one being looked at as rude rude. I'm African American, but I'm sure that had nothing to with it. A group of whites on the other side were being rushed out as well. They said it happens every time they come. They have no respect of person, so it;s anyone who's there eating later than 7:00 pm. They won't get my money again, nor the others with me. read more

This place is a joke. We had an incident, an old lady slapped my 3 year old child because he took a pepperoni off a pizza while I was on the other side, at the same buffet table, getting my kids their food. We have a 7 year old autistic daughter, a 4 year old and a 3 year old. The lady admitted it to the cops that she slapped him, yet the Pizza Ranch told the cops we're no longer allowed there. So, they banned us because someone hit our child. So if you have young children, do not come here. They don't like children and don't understand that things happens. I'm telling everyone I know not to come here anymore. read more

Small selection of food for a pizza buffet which is the primary reason for the low rating, good salad selection, nice staff are the redeeming qualities of this place. Other pizza ranch locations seem to have more to offer, if they can up the selections here, the rating will definately go up. It's affordable and quicker than a pizza delivery guy so that's nice. read more

Sometimes you just want Quantity over Quality. Pizza is OK for a buffet, but the great dessert pizza and chicken make up for it. The parking lot is very small and we often have to go somewhere else. read more

Terrible customer service. Front of house was rolling up the rugs while we were standing there waiting to pay. Saw us but decided to ignore the customer. Asked front of house a question. He had to go to the back because he didn't know. Before coming back with the answer he waited on the drive-thru customer. Asked to see the manager and the manager Eddie didn't care if we stayed or left. Manager then walked away. Will never go back. read more

I just don't know about the Pizza Ranch. The food is really good, particularly the chicken and mashed potatoes. For some reason, they refuse to put potato wedges on the buffet and burn their biscuits EVERY TIME. I love their cinnamon pizza, but they never have plain on the buffet, just berry and peach. We asked for a plain Cactus Bread to be made, and the waiter informed us that there was some at the buffet already. There were only two slices left, but I guess that's OK. I've been impressed with the food (they have great ice cream!), but the variety is a little lacking lately. read more

Pizza Ranch - That's a little too burnt for me. - Pizza Near Me - Roscoe, Illinois

We had just spent the last three months cycling across the country, and I had been telling my partner about how awesome it is. We were now on a car ride home from the east coast and had to make Pizza Ranch a stop. The crowd was small, and there was plenty of selection, though the pizzas seems to be getting a little old under the lamp, probably because of low turnover. What we had was pretty good, what I'd expect of buffet food. I didn't have any salad or other dinner buffet items, though my girlfriend seemed to like the chicken. The cactus bread was delicious as I've experienced in the past. We did notice an abundance of Christian rock coming from the speakers, and, as heathens, we were displeased. Otherwise, the place was clean and well-staffed. Pizza Ranch, you're adequate. read more

We used to love this place but the last few times have been lacking. Tonight was the final straw. We were there for about an hour and it was like the staff was in a daze. Very few fresh pizzas and the ones they did bring out were burnt, especially the dessert ones. Speaking of the dessert pizzas....wow. Minimal toppings, sloppy and burnt. Yum ;-( It wasn't just the food. One of the men who cleared our plates had unbearable BO and the other actually took his shoe off, picked something off the bottom of his DIRTY sock then put his hands back on the clean table to balance himself. Gross. The carpet was FILTHY and the bathrooms were one step short of a backwoods gas station. This place used to be clean, friendly and the food was fresh and served with a smile. So sad they have fallen so far. read more

Some modifications because of COVID. The salad bar was reduced by about a third of the normal offerings since no jello, pudding or cranberries. There were no soup options. There was only one dessert option which was the cactus bread. No dessert pizzas. The ice cream machine was not ready. The only drinks were sodas since the tea and coffee area was blocked off. The chicken is moist and delicious but for some reason they were very stingy with drumsticks. They came to refill the chicken with fresh chicken but were going to return to kitchen with the drumsticks until I asked for one. The potato wedges are great. You only have 45 minutes to eat before asked to leave. read more

Real cheese and good crust. I've lived here for three years and people would recomend other pizza places. I don't see why so many have that fake, processed cheese and low grade/canned meat and veggies. People think it's good? How can you not tell the difference? Pizza Ranch is one of my two favorite's out here. Taylor St. is my other. I'm impressed and I'm from Chicago. We order here often... I haven't tried the chicken or the buffet yet so I can't comment on it... It's very crowded when I go to pick up. You should have longer delivery hours on the weekends. Sunday included. :) read more

2 stars for the fast delivery. Everything else was fairly abysmal. Had to wait on the phone when I called for them to check if they were delivering at the moment. Lady on the phone was very rude. Every time she didn't hear me (due to noise in in the background on her end) it was "What?!" "Huh?", and she almost closed the call without getting my payment method or address for delivery. When she finally did get to the end it was "Ok,bye." Pizza was delivered in about 20 minutes. I wanted to tip the driver and usually do so when I sign the ticket, but the driver said there was no ticket to sign. Since I didn't have any cash handy I couldn't tip the one person who seemed to do his job well. The pizza was very subpar. Dry, bland, and slightly over cooked. For 2 mediums and a 2 liter it was definitely not worth $32. Could have gotten the same at Marcos for around $10 less and the pizza has always been better from there than this. read more

Pizza isnt very good. Everything else is really salty. We asked for our two Pizzas and both were wrong. Manager is super rude. Wont be back.

We used to love this place and go once a week. We have tried it twice in the last year or so and something has changed. The last time we went even the chicken was lacking. All of the pizza looked like it had been sitting a while. They used to have thin and thicker crust options on the buffet but it is now all super thin (think cracker) crust and doesn't taste good. There policy is also you may only have the kids cup if you pay kids price so my 10 year old had to use a cup with a lid that he can finish in 2 sips.....we won't be back...so sad. read more

My family came to this restaurant today. We were excited as it is one of our favorites. We arrived just after 1. The cashier told us we only had 45 minutes due to the restaurant closing at 2. There were signs that we needed a new cup for refills. We asked our server for a cup but he said we had to get them from the cashier. My son went to counter & waited a long time for someone to come to the counter. The pizza I tried was cold. I watched from my seat & no fresh pizza was brought for over 30 mins. The cook came to our table to ask if we were done or still working on it. I told him we were working on it as 2 of us were still eating. 2 minutes later, the kitchen workers were clearing all the food. I did tell him we weren't done. There was a table of 7 sitting 2 tables behind us who were also still eating. Its disappointing when you look forward to eating at your favorite place & it's not like it used to be read more
