Sunday at 5:30pm and they make you wait for runza's because they run out. come on. Location is 33rd & Nebraska Parkway.

Fairly tasty Runzas, and great fries and onion rings. But way overpriced for such greasy food.

Pamela at the Center Street location in Omaha was the sweetest person ever to my friend and I visiting from out of town. She ran us through the menu items and gave us recommendations on what to try. Very very good people work here. read more

The food was delicious and the server is amazing just make sure next time to clean off the tables.

Ok since when did they have pickles on original runza? And why do they always look like you just stuck them on a hot dog bun. They are not sealed all the way around and they r messy . read more

I just got Frings at 33rd and Nebraska Parkway. They were so salty I could not eat them. This has happened before, so they need to know to hold some of the salt. Love the app so I don't have to give them my card. read more

Too bad we don't have Runza's in LA or OC. For all those who've never heard of it, you might think...what? But it's a local comfort food that I really like. It's been months since I was here in Lincoln while on a vacation to see friends. But on my final night here, I wanted a Runza and fries before driving to Omaha the next day. I had some bottled dark Paulaner beer to drink with it from the liquor store nearby for when I got back into the hotel room. I was here 5 years ago also, and remember everyone telling me to try one of these semi burgers. They're to Lincoln what In N Out burgers are to So. CAL, they said. And they were kind of right (In N Out Burger has no fast food peer IMO). I remember then trying several different versions of this German inspired ground beef and cabbage sandwich. They were all a little different, but this chain's version was fine and it was convenient. So five years later, I finally got to taste this again. It was near closing time, so I was lucky to get inside and ordered it to go. It was starting to rain. The runza and beer and I survived the 2 mile drive to the hotel in a rainy night. It smelled great in the car and hotel. So I finally open it up...The bun was soft, and the meat and cabbage were fresh tasting, still warm. With fries and dark beer, it was a simple but yummy way to satisfy my hunger. Hope to come back to this town again soon. read more

I did not get me order correct today and it had seemed like they were just being disrespectful and this location only is the one I always have a problem with they just need to up their game. Location west O st and sun valley road food is good not workers and they need to get their stuff together and better mics cause they can't hear read more

Today I ordered a chicken wrap through the drive thru. It wasn't quite right, so I returned and they gave me a new one. 3 people apologized and they even gave me a free cookie! Thank you!! I love runza! read more

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah. That was my reaction when I first tried a Runza. And no, that's not an orgasmic gaaaaaaaaaaaaah. I was new in town, but I had a friend I knew from way back who lives here, and she said I just had to have a Runza, being as they were founded in Lincoln and were supposedly very good. I usually trust her judgment; after eating here, not so much lol. The traditional Runza sandwich is basically a bun stuffed with steamed cabbage and diced onions. Some people might love it, apparently a lot do; me, not so much. Now, having said that, I do like their chicken tenders. Those are pretty good. But not good enough to make me a regular customer here. read more

I went to Runza's recently on a trip to Nebraska and was blown away. My girlfriend kept telling me that I have to try Runza's burgers, that they were the best around, so I figured ok cool, its a resturaunt with great burgers. She never mentioned that it was a fast food place, and i never would have throught to ask. Since she kept talking about them having great burgers I just assumed this was a fancy sit down place. When we pulled up to a fast food place I was surprised and wasn't expecting much. She ordered a burger and I ordered a buffalo chicken sandwich and we sat down to eat. I tried a bite of her burger and was pissed that I didn't get one myself. The burgers were so good. I don't know what flavoring they put in it, but whatever it is, I am glad they do. It tastes like they put pepper and some other seasonings in with the ground beef they make the burgers at, so the flavor goes throughout the whole thing. I was also surprised to find out that you can buy them frozen, when the person behind me in line came in and ordered 20 frozen and brought a cooler with her to fill it up with. The chicken sandwich was great and the fries were very good as well. I thought the burgers were so good though, I decided to get one to go and ate it as we left. What a pleasant surprise :) read more

These five stars go out to ANY and ALL Runzas in Nebraska. Why? The world's greatest French Fries and the world's greatest hamburger. I know that's a lot to say, but it's absolutely true. I'm not sure what it is about the Runza burger, but it's got this peppery deliciousness that manages to melt in your mouth. The buns and the burgers and the toppings all together just make for heaven. Even the former boyfriend -- a burger connoisseur said it was the best fast food burger he'd ever had. And the fries? Well, I just can't say enough about them. They're crinkle cut and the closest thing I can get in Chicago is at Portillos. This is one of those places that I always come home and go to. Not for the classic Runza sandwich, but for the original burger and fries. Oh Runza, I love and miss you! read more

These five stars are also going to ALL Runza's in Nebraska. Why? Well, let me just say that I have an incredibly weak stomach when it comes to heavy greasy foods. Therefore, Runza simply pummels my digestive system to no end. Yet, when I'm in Nebraska I always come back for more. The reason? Runza is delicious! The fries are great and the Runza sandwich is simply delectable. It's sort of like a hot pocket without the thermonuclear exterior and ice cold interior. The meat inside is loose and always steaming hot. The restaurant is fast food with a drivethru. I recommend going in just in case you get a case of the "Runza's" after eating (believe me... It's still worth it). I also remember the counter girl at this specific Runza in Lincoln was incredibly hot. So if your in Nebraska or driving on I-70 keep an eye open for RUNZA! read more

I get a kick out of how much Nebraskans rave about Runza. I thought it was okay. I'm a light eater too, so it's not something I would typically order. It's basically a giant long roll filled with lots and lots of ground meat. I ordered their new Jalapeno Cheese Runza. It was HUGE. I can't even imagine eating the whole thing. The meat filling was nothing extraordinary. Just ground beef with some cabbage and spices in it. The bread part was heavy and a little greasy. Overall, very heavy meal. Not a good place to go to maintain a girlish figure. Nebraska should get In N Out out there. read more

If you didn't grow up eating Runzas, you may not understand them. They tast very similar to a white castle but less greasy. I used to work at Runza for several years and I found that the freshness of the runza would really affect the taste. A good Runza has thick, fluffy breading and has not been sitting out all day. I always like to put some cheese in it and dip that loaf in ketchup. The burgers are pretty good, I never got sick of them. The onion rings are very good, each one is double-breaded. The onion-dip is pretty good on the fries or the rings, but it's kind of a rip off for $0.50 for a small tub. To sum it up, Runza is a step up from your regular fast food (Mc Donalds, BK, etc) in both taste and price. Even if you don't like the taste of a Runza, it's a good place for burgers, fries, and onion rings. secret tip - when I worked at the Runza on 84th and Holdrege, it was by far much cleaner than the Runza on 56th. However, it has been a few years since I worked there. read more

Runza was alright, my wife's co-workers said she had to try it, so she told me that I had too because I'm the more adventurous eater. To me it was basically a white castle burger in a hot dog bun. It was alright but not something I would drive out of my way for in NE not that there's much else. I had Runza with cheese and frings. read more

I am a life long lincolnite so I have eaten runza a time or 50. I just had the saltiest burger I have ever had in my life At the 56th and holdrege location... and I LOVE salty food. It was like kill-a-cow salty. I couldn't eat the damn thing. I'm disappointed because their consistency is something I have always relied on. I understand saying something is salty can be subjective but this burger was by anyone's standards unpalatable. read more

It is a Nebraska thing, what can I say? Come in with an open mind and you will love it! The original runza is probably by far the best. What is a runza? Its beef, onions and cabbage with spices baked into bread. They have several different kinds but i recommend the original myself! If you don't think you'll like it, well try a burger. They are out of this world good! They also have these amazing onion rings (DO NOT forget the onion ring dip) and probably the best fast food fries out there. Don't hesitate to try it all. You'll be hooked! read more

For all you out-of-towners passing through Lincoln, this little fast-food chain is worth checking out! They have fresh burgers and a great idiosyncratic Plains treat known as a Runza. Basically, it's a little bread loaf surrounding ground beef and cabbage--and by now I believe they have a bit more updated version (hard to say, since I sadly don't live within driving distance anymore). Love their shakes and onion rings, too. I'd compare it favorably, even above, In 'n Out (California cultishness be darned!) read more

I LOVE runzas. I'm from Colorado and never get runzas so whenever I'm here, we make it a mandatory stop. We went through the drive through so didn't get to see the inside of the restaurant and the runza was okay, not the best one I've had but okay. For whatever reason it didn't seem to have as much filling as normal. read more

I was told Runza is like Michigan pasties only leaning a little toward fast food, which is accurate. It's a pastry shell stuffed with meat, cheese, and anything else you might put in a normal sandwich. The shell is a little too soft-bready for me, but it's there to hold the beef in and does so adequately. It's a great, solid, quick meal. We went to the one in the student union; so it basically felt like a cafeteria, but we didn't go there for the atmosphere. read more

Runza is a must. Everything is made fresh and it's delicious. The only bad thing is the quality of the actual runzas have gone down. The burgers are still delicious, as is the chicken. read more

When I was planning a trip to Lincoln, I asked my Nebraska native client what he would suggest that is strictly local fare. He told me about Runza. I'm glad we went. For "fast food", it's pretty darned good! The classic "Runza" is a loose meat sandwich with onion inside a soft breading. We got one with cheese, and then one with mushrooms and Swiss so we could sample. They were both good. The flavor did remind me of White Castle, but less scary. The fries were really good, too. Crinkle cut, and very...flavorful. Different somehow. We evidently missed the "dip" that everyone is talking about. Ketchup worked fine! You HAVE to go here once, just to say you did. It's definitely a Lincoln thing. read more

Nice food delicious flavor. What an amazing trip down memory lane for hubby. Driving up and getting polish food!

I've never been dissapointed. I'm from Nebraska and this was a staple growing up. We didn't have a McDonald's in my town and didn't get a Burger King until I was in high school but by god we had a Runza. And we were blessed. The burgers are amazing, the actual Runza sandwiches themselves are divine, and the fries are hands down the best fast food fries I have ever had. My husband who is from Scotland has raved about this place to his relatives back there and now they want us to take them to Nebraska for Runza. read more

First thing I do every time I go home is get a mushroom and swiss runza at the first Runza I can fine. I know how to roll my own runzas, but jeebus that's a lot of work and by god I love getting a runza without having to work for it. Awesome fries as well, crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, just as the Lord intended. I wish we had these in eastern Iowa so badly... read more

Runza is a midwestern fast food joint. I was a pretty serious vegetarian for 8 years, but I allowed myself to eat a runza once a year bc i cannot live without runza in my life. A runza is ground beef, cabbage, and spices baked into bread. It is amazing however i have recently come to the conclusion that if you weren't raised on Runza's your not going to like 'em. Everybody i know who grew up in the midwest makes yummy noises when you mention the word 'runza', but people from outside the midwest don't seem to enjoy them so much. In fact, people not from the midwest tend to make me feel guilty and disgusting for eating Runzas. Does anybody else get that? read more

I understand this place is a Lincoln staple. I couldn't visit Lincoln without going here at least once. It has great fries that come with some sort of mayo dip. My definition of the Runza: it's kind of like a "hot pocket" you get in the grocery store, but fresher. I hear the cheese burgers are good. Their onion rings have a "different" type of breading. read more

Never had Runza before, and I have to say it was awesome. The onion rings are really good, and not lacking in onions. The runza is also good, and a good change from the old fashion big mac. read more

very disappointed. i go there with my aunt and she orders a double burger without a bun and they always seem to put cheeeeese on it even though she doesnt say cheeeeeeeeseburger. just buuuuurger. stupid place to eat. their mini corndogs are good. read more

This used to be delicious. Quality seems to go downhill every time I come here. Burgers are OK, but Runzas used to be much tastier. Meh.

I love Runzas. The new Philly Cheesesteak Runza is amazing. Great flavor. The cinnamon rolls are also great.

I just love Runza! Whenever I visited my grandparents in Lincoln when I was growing up, they always took me to Runza and now as an adult, whenever I come back to town, Runza is one of the first stops that I have to make. Granted there is a full fast food menu which includes burgers, fries and even chili in the winter time but I always have to go with the classic Runza! I'll freely admit that nostalgia is a big part of why I like coming here so much. More than likely, someone who tries a Runza for the first time (especially after a big build up) will be slightly underwhelmed by this simple dough wrapped cabbage/meat conglomerate. But for someone who has enjoyed these for my entire life, Runza is just awesome and quite simply is the taste of Lincoln! I'll come back every time I'm in town, no questions asked. read more

As a fast food restaurant it is the best one on that side of the river on the corner of 56th. It has a drive through and a serve yourself soda fountain inside.They accept Credit card and U.S. Currency. read more

For some reason people really love Runza's burgers, and I have no idea why. They are bland. Overall, it is a fairly average fast food place that I only want to eat at once every 6 months or so. read more

Bad customer service and they forget items in your order. This location needs new management/staff ASAP.

The fish sandwich is the poorest excuse for one that I have ever had. The end product lolls nothing like the poster. Burgers will more then likely be cold. I guess they made their name on Ruza though. read more

We went to Runza Wednesday evening. I have never had a Runza like this! The paper tore when I tried to unwrap the sandwich. The bread was hard as a rock--perhaps from microwaving? The filling was all mushy and terrible. Was this left from the previous day's special? I used to love Runzas but think I've been cured of that. I wouldn't give the experience even one star but am not sure it will print this without at least one. read more

I remember as a kid back in the 1970s, RUNZA was a special treat. The Runzas back then tasted a lot better then they do now. They use to be larger and not as doughy. They also had more flavor. Not sure what they changed over the years but they just aren't as tasty anymore? read more

Yes Runza hut use to be good , the Runzas were full and meaty and great,,the burgers were formed by hand juicy and flavorful, now the Runza is more bread less meat and just a ball of goo with no flavor, same with the burgers there made by a machine that stamps and forms it making it a dry chewy burger that is over cooked and has no taste unless you smother it with tons of condiments I have complained to the Runza headquarters to no avail it's to bad because they use to be great now there just like all the other crappy food chains it's about how to make the cheapest product to increase the bottom line and get rid of the quality that made Runza stand out in the crowd of so so burger chains, if Runza started out 50 years ago with the way they are now they wouldn't have made to bad they have ruined a great thing I can see why people who never tried one before don't understand what we old time Runza eaters see in them your better off making your own read more
