We always enjoy eating at Pizza Ranch, they have a decent salad bar, we especially enjoy the chicken with the variety of wings. There was also a good variety of pizza and bread sticks. And we top it off at the desert bar with apple strudel pizza and ice cream!

In all the visits we've made to the Council Bluffs Iowa facility I can honestly say tonight was the worst. They didn't keep the chicken filled and the pizzas were cold and we're the same from the time we got there until we left. They didn't keep the regular lettuce salad bowl filled. I won't be returning until they are completely done remodeling. The seating is horrible.

I realize this is a holiday season, and staffing maybe less, but today wasn’t a quality meal. The lettuce was brown. Old lettuce. Three bins empty thanincluded one of my favs - eggs. No mashed potatoes but a bin full of gravy. One set of folks brought in their own plastic dishes. I see why as I dug down three plates to finally find a plate I could wipe off and use. The other three had mashed potatoes between them. While the Council Bluffs, Iowa PR is under construction, I think they are missing the mark. This location has had ups and downs in quality control, today was a very low experience.

We just love our pizza ranch in council bluffs. The best one we have been to. We hit it about 1:00 pm today. Was not busy at all. Wife ordered a special pizza and was great as usual. Everything is fresh and full. Dessert pizzas were plentiful. I had my usual root beer float. Yum! Our table service person was around when needed. Sure looks like they will about double their size when construction is done. Thanks again to the fine job you are doing.
