Everything was mediocre. Nothing great, nothing terrible. The real issue is that they market…read morethemselves as a made to order pasta place - but everything comes in separate containers, not cooked or heated together, not mixed, not sauced, not a cohesive dish. Also the pictures are misleading, and you get less than they suggest. For example, the sides pictured are a pile of garlic bread or a few breadsticks. We paid $2 extra to pick the option for the cheesy garlic bread side (vs regular garlic bread) and it was a single 2 in by 2 in tiny square of garlic bread with about a TSP of cheese on it. What is the $2 for? The dressing for the Italian salad was basically pure olive oil. And of course, was on the side vs a dressed salad. Definitely should change their slogan from "a taste of Italy" - it's not even good American Italian.

A lot of the food from these places have the same menu, and the food tastes the same... tasteless. I suspect that this is because a lot of these places get their food from the same suppliers. Now I don't know where Tower Pizza is getting their food, but they mainly focus on Pizza and appears that they are selling a lot of it. Which means no freezer burn shit. The pizza is tasty!!! My only criticism is the over emphasis on pizza sauce. Now it should be noted the restaurant is literally a hole in the wall with only a hand full of tables, but is very family friendly.

I for one do not like Pizza ranch Pizza. That being said they're chicken, salad bar, and other…read morefoods are pretty dang good. I went to Pizza ranch about 30 years ago here in wadena and I refuse to go back until last year. The pizza I had 30 years ago was so bad I refused to go back. Well they changed their menu around so it's a lot more than what they used to have. The waitress was very on Target with refilling drinks and getting whatever we needed. We now go to Pizza ranch regularly and my son and daughter will get whatever they feel like eating and they enjoy it. I get the chicken and salad bar and JoJo's. They're chicken is one of the best in Minnesota. I gave it a three-star review because of the first time I was there but since then I would have to give it a four to a four and a half star

First time visit for breakfast based on recommendation from another fantastic local restaurant…read moremanager. The homemade jumbo carmel rolls (to go) were a hit with the kids and were still warm when I got home. The server waited to have to heated up until I was ready to go to ensure they would be warm. It was a great touch. Based on the recommendation did the breakfast burrito. So glad that I did as it was a meal for 2 but filled with eggs, sausage, bacon, cheese, shredded hashbrowns, and maybe some grilled onions. Then topped with queso cheese sauce and the option for spicy or default homemade salsa. I did the spicy salsa on the side for my half and the regular salsa on the side to go for the other half. Definitely a burrito for two. When the bartender found out that this was my first visit she walked me thru the menu and the specials that are available on the weekend (limited quantities smoked ribs and beef brisket) So glad that a trusted voice recommended I give Sunshine's a try. Great food and great staff.

The cocktail sauce was a good accompaniment. Husband had the walleye special. It was a HUGE piece of fish. I had a bit and enjoyed it very much. There was lots of indoor seating.

Very straight-forward--you walk in, there are freezers filled with every variety of cut and chop you could imagine. Every kind of sausage you could want, from fresh brautwurst to hawaiian sausage to andouille and chorizo. Ribs, steaks, pork chops, pork butt...they even sell marinated meat, like raspberry chipotle pork chops, and snack meat sticks. The prices are unbelievable for what you get, and the woman working at the cashier was extremely friendly and sweet. If you are ever remotely near this place, I emphatically recommend you seek it out.
