    Ordered for pickup - quick and friendly phone rep. Likewise the window attendant when I drove up. Order was accurate, service was fast, and the pizza was hot and tasted great. Will be back!

    Great customer service on our to-go order. The manager is wonderful to work with. I think his name is Eric.

    I have been at many Pizza Ranches and recently I have had the opportunity to eat at the one in Waukee, IA. They have the best chicken and their pizza is great. But what sets them apart is their service is great. Krystal is the nicest, best person and she obviously cares about the customers. There is another lady who brings food to your table and also busses tables. She is patient and kind and puts up with a lot of demanding and obnoxious customers. I feel for her. I'd give her name here but they do not wear name tags. (Hint to management.) Go there, try it, see for yourself.

    Great food, always fresh chicken and pizza. I don’t remember I had a bad experience once.
    More important than food, people who work there are extremely nice! Starting from the person who answers phone calls to the person who picks up the empty dishes and clean tables!

    Ordered a pizza on arrival. Never got it. When staff informed they made one but by then we had eaten from the buffet so really didn’t enjoy it. Couple next to us never got theirs either. However food was good.

    Delivery driver super however it took over an hour to receive our food (quoted time was 60 min- it actually took 90) and it was cold. Chicken tenders have a much less pleasurable taste when its cold

    The biscuits were badly burnt. The cookie was over baked and was hard too.
