Used to have a tea dispenser, but that's gone. Rather have tea than soda...personal preference, not a big deal. Edit: chicken was raw, so not as good as normal I'd say. Passed that along and Im sure they'll deal with it.

I feel like we got there at the end of a rush and I feel like there is a shortage of staff. I could go on with things that weren’t up to par, but I won’t. I will say however, that the price is getting too high!

If I could give a zero i would. We went to the lunch buffet on Wednesday at 1130, paid 27 plus dollars. What a waste of money. There was no chicken, cold potatoes, old green beans. There were bits and pieces of cheese bread, cold. There were about 6 pieces of pizza, they said a 10 minute wait on chicken, they brought out about 15 pieces, which were gone in about 3 minutes. Pizzas were non existent and when they put one out it was raw. There were several unhappy customers. We will not return. Take some lessons from the Pizza Ranch in Decorah, they have their ducks in a row

Response from Charles City Pizza Ranch

Hi Dawn, thank you for your feedback. I'm so sorry to hear about your disappointing experience at our lunch buffet. We strive to provide a great dining experience, and it’s clear we missed the mark during your visit. Please reach out to our restaurant to speak with a manager, as we would love the opportunity to make things right. We hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future.
