We were in your restaurant at lunch today. The salad table was great. But when it came time to eat it it was a different story. At first I will say there was quite a few people but the tables were empty and we couldn't find anyone. Then a guy came out with 3 pizzas. But still no chicken he said it would take a few more min. So we took a couple pieces of pizza and ate those and kept waiting.Went looking again for someone to help us. When I finally found someone they said it takes 10:45 for chicken (and not softly). Finally out comes the chicken. Then there was no deserts out.. ugh we had ice cream and left. I don't complain about the cost of the buffet but it should at least have what is advertised. And we should have been able to find someone anyone to talk to.

Only 2 pizzas on buffet, only dark meat chicken, only 2 very small desserts, Breast chicken was requested, but when it was brought to my table the breast was still raw in the middle.

We would love the opportunity to make things right, so please feel free to call and speak with a manager. We hope you'll give us another chance to provide a better experience in the future.

Stopped at 22:30 in Story City. Pizza was very dried out as was the chicken. Pizza almost seemed like left overs as did the chicken.

Friendly staff member, 8 piece chicken pack to go was great, other than the two chicken breasts still had uncooked batter on parts of each piece and that part was not edible

March 27, 2025

Response from Story City Pizza Ranch

Thank you, Shirley, for your feedback. We're so glad you enjoyed the friendly service and the chicken pack, but I'm sorry to hear about the issue with the chicken breasts. I'll discuss this with management. We hope to see you again soon.

Food quality is lacking. We have been there 3 times in a month. The buffet was lacking fresh chicken and pizza. The salad bar offerings tasted stale . The ice cream was not as good as I remember. Looks like trying to save money on food waste. Buffet needs some improvement with available pizza and hot chicken.

Website to order online is horrible. Must have put in my password 4 times. Kept bringing me back to the beginning. Gave up and just called in an order. Waited 20 minutes at the drive up window. Nobody noticed. Food was good. Service, not so much.
