First time here. My friend who is a local likes this restaurant so we are giving it a go…read more Busy parking lot. The ambiance is standard Mexican restaurant. Bright colored walls. Decorations from the ceiling. The restaurant inside was smaller than it appears outside. Busy for a weekday evening. My friends were already seated with chips and salsa. The margaritas were on the table for the evening special. Kind waiter. He was attentive and we placed our orders. At our table of 4 my friends all enjoyed their food. I ordered the Burrito Especial: Beef burrito with red sauce, topped with grated cheese, lettuce, tomatoes & sour cream. I think it just was not what I was craving. It felt small and underwhelming. It had good flavor, but just wasn't hitting the spot. The margarita was strong and chips were plentiful so I did not leave hungry. I know there is not a ton of options in Indianola. I would come back to try it again if we venture that way again.

I got the Loaded Tacos--two very stuffed tacos with great flavor. I went with the hot sauce, which is VERY hot by Midwestern standards, but I loved it. My wife got the Street Tacos - also very flavorful and fresh, and these can be eaten by hand, whereas mine were a challenge! They take cash only, and service was very friendly, but each order is prepared when it's ordered, so it can take a few minutes (probably took about 10-12 minutes to get my order. Definitely worth a try!

Our food was amazing and the service was excellent! It was a beautifully mild September afternoon,…read moreand we decided to dine outside under a tent that was pitched in the restaurant's parking lot, near the entrance to the building. We were told to sit anywhere, and our server came by immediately to offer beverages. I ordered a michelada ($8) and it was the same awesome cerveza preparada that I'm used to enjoying back here at home at a few of my favorite Mexican restaurants. My friends ordered margaritas, and they looked similarly impressive, particularly a watermelon margarita. Its cloudy appearance looked to contain fresh watermelon puree instead of some weird watermelon liqueur, and it was adorned beautifully with fresh fruit. Dinner was outstanding. I enjoyed fish tacos ($11) for a lighter dinner, and they were served fresh, hot, and delicious. Besides sliced red cabbage, there was a condiment of pico de gallo that had some minced jalepeño, that was crunchy and super fresh, and topped with a creamy chipotle sauce. Absolutely perfect. Service was prompt and courteous, and while we were dining, staff came out to the tented patio to celebrate a few birthdays of other guests with joyful song, making the experience very festive. Prices were extremely reasonable, at least compared to where I'm from, the Twin Cities. The portion sizes were enormous. My friends had to request boxes to take home about 2/3 of their dinners. So normally an experience like this would warrant five stars! Well, our experience was slightly marred by waiting interminably for our server to collect our cards for payment. As it turns out, guests are expected to self-pay inside the restaurant at the counter. This requirement was not communicated to us, and I ended up walking in and out of the restaurant with a heap of paperwork to sort and pass out to everyone at my table to sign, then I had to return inside to give the pile of receipts and pens back to the cashier. This payment inconvenience is very inconsistent with the rest of the experience. It would never stop me from returning, obviously, because the food is so outstanding. But I may not remember to warn anyone of the unusual step of having to manually pay at a counter when the whole rest of the experience is full service.

We ordered Coke's, all out of Coke. The temperature is about 65 degrees in there too, so bring a coat or sweatshirt. The chips came, all were burnt. Had the taste of smoke. I ordered a dish that came with steak, it came out and tasted like a block of salt in every bite. Just an overall poor experience. Server was nice, that seemed to be the only positive.

The seasoned fries were far too seasoned, the au jus was far saltier than au jus should be. They did add onions to the French dip as requested, but the bread was cold and obviously came out of a bag without any additional prep. The chocolate martini was supposed to come with whipped cream and sprinkles; obviously from the picture this was forgotten as well. The chips/dip had queso that had been sitting in a warmer for a long time, as a film had developed on top. Our server was friendly, but flighty. "Are you guys ready for your checks"? "No, I'll probably have more to drink". "Here's your checks, no hurry". Asked for extra napkins, she forgot those too.

If we ask them where they want to eat, Pizza Ranch comes out on top 9/10 times! If my daughter were to write this review, she'd say her favorites are the Ranch sticks, chicken (drumsticks), corn, shredded cheese, mandarin oranges (and any other fruit), Sweet Swine pizza (she has a strong love of pineapple on pizza), any fruit pizza, pudding, and ice cream. Sounds about right for a five year old. But, this is my review! So, I'm sure to mention I love this place, because my kids love this place and I know they'll eat well! I know I'll eat well too, maybe too well! This specific Pizza Ranch is my personal favorite! Consistently a great experience here! Why... 1. Only one time have they not had milk available for the kids to drink. Tip, ask when you pay for milk if you want some! 2. The iceberg lettuce is shredded! This might be embarrassing to admit but, I craved this when I was pregnant with our daughter. Plus they have a second lettuce option. 3. Variety! They have three "bars" of food. Cold, hot, and pizza. All of them are stocked well and with a lot of variety. For example, three fruit options on the salad bar. 4. Clean for a buffet. Let's face it, buffet places aren't ever the "cleanest" places. But they do a good job here. 5. Staff is consistent and so nice! We tend to see the same people each time there. Employee retention says something without "saying" anything at all. So, if you are a Pizza Ranch loving family or individual, I highly recommend this specific location!
