I ordered a specialty pizza for the buffet and it took an hour to come through. They were busy when we arrived with a party of 11 and quickly ran out of pizza and chicken and it took a long time to get a variety of hot pizza and desserts back up. The staff was friendly and kept cleaning tables and filling salads, and mashed potatoes etc.

5:30 PM and no chicken. Seems they never have enough chicken. I understand they don’t want waste but running out at 5:30? People had to wait about 10 minutes to get the butter restocked.

I ordered food for a delivery that I was told would be delivered within 30 minutes. An hour and 45 minutes, plus 3 phone calls later, it was finally delivered. My food was cooked and sitting at Pizza Ranch an hour and 15 minutes before it was delivered. Needless to say, the food was dried out and the driver agreed. I rejected the order an am waiting for a refund. No excuses and definitely won’t be doing this again…

We came on Tuesday July 15th at 5:00 PM and again on August 12th at 6:00 PM with both the buffet not prepared for the crowd. The 12th was very unprepared. We paid and went to the buffet. There was no pizza, chicken or lettuce available to serve ourselves at the time. We waited for quite some time before pizza was out and very little chicken became available for the crowd. The chicken is very good but with two exact experiences has me recommending you get better prepared to serve crowds before you open each day.
