12/22/2023 Ice cream machine is broken AGAIN! They should have a sign at the entrance advising customers (before paying) when the ice cream machine is broken. They couldn't take our pizza order when we paid because "we are out of numbers." They said come back in 5 minutes! REALLY? The table was dirty. Out of silverware. There were not a lot of customers. (3:06 p.m. not dinner rush) No toilet paper in the women's bathroom. The manager, Steve, said that the customers should let them know when the bathroom needs attention! (That's NOT the customers' job.) I explained that IF there was a sign stating they have no female employees, I'd be happy to let them know, but there is no sign. They claimed that someone must have torn the sign down. There were 3 employees (including the manager) standing at the cash register, doing nothing (talking) when they could have been taking care of what needed to be taken care of! Went from 4 stars to 2. Probably should be 1 star. No apology - I was basically told it was the paying customers' job to advise them when things need attention! They didn't offer to pay me or give a discount to the customer, for doing their job! ................................................ Great chicken and ice cream when the machine isn't broken!) *Oranges were questionable (first time I've seen whole oranges on the salad bar - frankly, hopefully the last time, if this is the quality we'll be seeing. Side note- those aren't shadows you're seeing on the oranges in the photo)

The food here is much better than typical buffets. Plenty of parking, but no dedicated motorcycle parking. Handicapped accessible entrance. Kind of like Golden Corral, you pay, then go find a table, then go get your food and drink. Excellent choices, not just pizza. They have fried chicken and it's actually rather delicious. But they also have mashed potatoes, corn, a full salad bar with lots of dressings and toppings, a decent selection of pizzas, fresh bread sticks, dessert pizzas, and soft serve ice cream. If you leave this place hungry, it's your own fault. It's a little pricier than other pizza buffets, but worth it. Place was nice and clean. Rest room was clean. They've got a game room so you can play some games if you so desire. They don't have wait staff, but they were doing a fantastic job of picking up our dirty dishes so that they didn't stack up on our table. We went kind of early on a Wednesday, so it wasn't overly busy. It might be different on a Friday or Saturday night. They offer military discount and have a loyalty rewards program. The rewards program, in my opinion, needs to be beefed up. I have to spend a lot of cash to get a $5 reward compared to other loyalty programs.

  • Eddie Hsu

Didn't feel like making lunch so I headed here by myself around 1:30 since it's close and I've never been. Lunch with a drink was just over $10. I had to ask if I should seat myself but the hostess/cashier did let me know I could request a pizza I didn't see. There are a few different rooms and areas and the place had a few other late lunchers, but plenty of tables. I got my own drink and then checked out the offerings. The buffet is small and no-frills. The pizza station had about 6-8 pies most were plain cheese and some strange combinations with what appeared to be a pan style and thin crust. The fried chicken station had biscuits, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, carrots, corn and green beans. The salad bar was sad. Basic and not many selections. Only ranch dressing with some packets of Ken's on the side. The pizza was fine, not really good but it was okay. The chicken was too salty for me but the sides were okay. The biscuits were buttery and really good. I did notice the Christian pop when I went to wash my hands. I hadn't noticed it at first, but once I did, it was just weird. Not off putting but odd. Glad I checked it out. In theory it sounded good but won't be back. Do have to say service was quick. Plates were cleared each time I got up and I never saw the person.

  • Nicole Geisinger

The pizza was super dry. The only pizza that tasted fresh, was 1 that i had requested- which was served to my table so that was pretty cool. Salad bar selections weren't very fresh & had blue cheese chunks mixed in with the spinach/mixed greens, which was almost completely gone. The chicken was a disappointment also, which has been my favorite item at other locations. The dessert pizza was super dry & literally consisted of crust & the dry, crunchy topping---as in, there was literally no fruit stuff on the pizza anywhere. However, the cookie pizza was great! The ice cream machine was making an awful noise, which is something the staff isn't in control of,but could definitely use a service call ASAP. Stephen at the register was friendly & the Manager lady on shift (i didnt get her name)was working her butt off, to bring pizza out as it got cooked & clear our plates as needed. She was definitely doing a decent job of multitasking. If it weren't for those 2 employees, I'd probably only give 2 stars. We love Pizza Ranch!! Please do better.

Tried it out for the first time, wasn’t too impressed for the price of 1 adult. At $17, the pizza options were very limited. There were 8 pizza trays but many were duplicates and pizzas were nothing to note. Love that there were coffee and tea options but neither was hot and cold respectively, they were luke warm. Salad bar was excellent with lots of options and was fresh. Potato wedges, mashed potato, and potato chips though was very good, very fresh and delicious. Fried chicken was very moist, not dry but was ruined by how salty the skin and breading was, couldn’t have more than 3 because of that. Desert pizzas are unique and is something you should try at least once. Disappointed that the ice cream machine and some of the drink options being out of order. I also found it awkward to eat my mashed potato and gravy out of a mug and fork as they only had plates.

  • Susie

Extremely over priced. Salty and greasy food. No flavor other than salt. No variety on pizza. Very gross. *In response to the reply. I believe it would be a complete waste of my time to call the store. I did this review about 5 minutes before we walked out of the door. As we were leaving, my husband saw a decal on the door about receiving a discount if you are a member of a specific workplace. We didn't know ahead of time. So my husband went back inside and the person at the counter, who is the same person who rang us up initially and said he was a manager, told my husband it was too late to get the discount because he would have to rerun everything. Then told us if we mentioned it ahead of time we would have saved roughly $30. This particular location doesn't care about its customers. As for y'all not using salt, the pre-made food you receive in bags that you heat up and serve comes heavily covered in salt. As for variety of pizza, something more than sausage and pepperoni would be nice.

Pizza Ranch rarely disappoints, and this time was no exception. Great food as always. Pizza was hot and fresh and the chicken was well seasoned. And they have STUFFED CRUST now! Buffet was constantly monitored and refreshed as needed. The cashier/manager was very polite and welcoming. We went on Tuesday night (when kids eat free) and surprisingly, it wasn't terribly busy. Service was great but unfortunately our first server's shift was over 20 minutes into our meal and her replacement just wasn't as warm and accommodating as the first. Oh, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Christian music...please keep that going. Very uplifting. Overall, Pizza Ranch is the perfect place for a family that can't decide between pizza or fried chicken for dinner.

Pretty good place to eat with a nice variety of food for everybody! All the food was fresh and it didn't take long to get busy! It was crowded quickly, but the staff kept the food fully stocked and fresh! Impressive! The staff was exceptionally nice and helpful! The restaurant was clean and arranged nicely! The temperature inside the building was astronomically hot compared to a normal air-conditioned restaurant. It was a struggle to eat or lunch and get out as soon as possible! Our lunch was definitely cut short! Prove for 4 adults and 2 kids was over $100.....

I received raw chicken, and when I told the waitress, she said "hummm" and walked away. The cook came out and tried to tell me, there is no way he can catch all of the chicken, sometimes 10 min in broster just isn't enough and people get raw chicken, sometimes the chickens are just so big. I asked why he did not cut open the biggest piece like I would do at home, and he replied that he is working 3 stations and he just does not have time. No apologies, refund or anything. The lettuce was wilted and brown, asked twice to get some green lettuce, and was told when they could they would. An hour later, 3 of us removed the lettuce, put it on plates on our table, and then they replaced the lettuce :( I get every business is short-handed, but raw chicken is NOT exceptable!

We took our family there Sunday to celebrate birthdays. My sister is in a nursing home and rarely leaves, but we brought her in the wheelchair. My brother has a heart condition. It was extremely hot in there. We told staff, and they acted like its always that hot. We were drenched in sweat before we could even eat. We bought presents and they had to quickly open them so we could go. This morning I called to speak to management. He said there was a problem with the air but it was our choice to stay. Another man called me but was very rude and said the same thing. We didnt have to eat there. I said they should have closed or at put a sign that warms folks about no a/c. They were both very rude. This was unhealthy and a risk for anyone there. They should have closed if they have no a/c.

Last time we went here we showed up right at closing time and we were more than happy to leave due to that fact but the amazing staff talked us into staying and getting our dinner. They said they were there for us and insisted we dine in ( I think they just wanted less food to throw out lol) and were very patient with us as we ate, we weren't rushed even though it was after close and I really appreciated that. Made sure to tip the staff very well and I will be going back, but next time I'll show up earlier lol

The pizza was good, it just really needed more sauce. The chicken, salad, and dessert were all pretty fantastic. The people were incredible! You can order a specific pizza and have it brought to your table as part of the buffet. The only mildly weird thing is that one of their employees mentioned something about taking what you don't eat of your ordered pizza and putting it in with the buffet pizzas. I might have misunderstood, though. All of the pizzas they put in the buffet while I was there were full fresh and uneaten. It seems like a safe and clean place.

Gluten free pizza available for ~$15-18, and it's better than the pizza in the buffet. Best gluten free crust we've ever had.

  • Andy Adventuring

Pretty wild how different this place is now. I remember when buffet was around $9. Now it’s over $15 AND they ask for tips at the register instead of just paying their employees — so the price has basically doubled. The Jesus music being played at high volume now is very weird, too. On the plus side, the food is still decent and the employees are fantastic. Update: A buffet ticket is $18.43 now. Up $3 from my last review a month ago. The price of the buffet is now double what it was just a couple years ago. Nuts. I realize prices have gone up since covid, but I can’t name a single restaurant that has doubled their prices. Or even +50% their prices. Half the soda is out, and I waited over 5 minutes at the counter before an employee came to ring me up. I’m done.

  • Travis Maudlin

Based on this visit itself, they didn't have many normal options of pizza. It was mostly specialty pizzas out the whole time we were there. Normally, it's not this bad, and they have more regular options. So it was kind of disappointing as we had kids that didn't want all the fancy stuff, and sometimes I'd like to enjoy a slice or two of just pepperoni or something simple myself. I think it could also be a little cleaner around the tables. ** I'd like to give an update on a recent visit. It was much better with pizza variety and cleaner this past visit! Hopefully, they can stay like that! **

Food was great. We can right at noon and they had good selection and were constantly bringing out more food. Staff was very friendly and were quick to clear used plates from our table. Tables and seating were all clean. Flood was a bit dirty but not unreasonable. Just could have been a little cleaner.

Going down the road & saw Pizza Ranch. Once we got where we were going I looked Pizza Ranch up on Google & read the reviews & looked at the pictures. We decided to stop by. Pizza was good wish they had more varieties. I requested a thin crust pizza they brought it to my table. The staff were friendly. The fried chicken was seasoned & juicy. I would definitely recommend this place. They serve soft serve ice cream OMG it was good. You have to definitely visit Pizza Ranch

I used to like this place when I was a kid but you know things are different when you are a kid. This place is not great. You could go to pizza street for cheaper and better food. The food was not very good. The pizza tasted very weird and very greasy. The food overall was not very good. I had to spit out multiple things and left after maybe 30 minutes at most. Would not go again. Would also not personally recommend. Too expensive with the state of the food. Not good. Only good thing was the ice cream.

I saw an ad online look up the website the pictures made it look pretty impressive for $20 a person after 60 dollars for three people one buffet at 7 medium-sized pizzas cut into about 12 to 14 slices so very small. The instant potatoes in canned gravy was average. The Swansons type hungry man Fried Chicken was mediocre at best I would say pizza Street puts on a better product with more variety I will not be going back the Pizza Ranch anytime soon terrible value for the price

Though a lesser taste experience & value than when they opened here, and lesser than pre-COVID times, still a better quality pizza buffet experience. Salad bar's fairly nice, fried chicken is juicy with crispy skin (though somewhat salty), and pizza (especially build your own) can make for a very tasty lunch. Make sure to save a little room for their gooey crunchy chocolate chip dessert, particularly with a cup of hot coffee or soft serve.

Pizza Ranch is a place where you can enjoy a variety of pizzas, salads, chicken, and desserts in a buffet style. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the restaurant is clean and spacious. However, I have some issues with the price and the service. The buffet is overpriced for the quality of the food, which is often bland and greasy. Sometimes, the buffet runs out of popular items and it takes a long time for them to be restocked. I would recommend Pizza Ranch if you are looking for a quick and easy meal, but don’t expect too much from the taste or the value.

Still a good value and decent service and atmosphere but it feels like the quality of the food is slipping. The fried chicken, one of the main attractions to my companion and nauseous l myself, seemed like it was fried in old dirty grease. Still better than most but the presentation is off cuz it looks dark and dry from the outside. Other than that still a place I enjoy perhaps it was an off day.

Great customer service, good price, and great food. I love all you can eat buffets and you when the chicken they sell is dang good, you really can't get much better. For desert they have some good options, but the apple pie tops the cake (pun intended), it tasted amazing and I would never have though a pie in the shape of a pizza would taste do good. There's also a fun arcade you can bring the kids to and have some fun. I even got my self some fun little trinkets in the photo. All in all, great place.

Absolute WORST customer service!!! George the "Manager" has zero control over his store. We ordered 30 pizzas for a work event 2 days prior to needing them. After they were 45 minutes late, I spoke with George who not only yelled at me that the got 3 orders at the same time, but also would not contact the driver to give me an ETA. 30 pizzas feeds a lot of people, so as you can imagine, lots of hangry people!!!! Will NEVER order form them again. Would give a zero if I could.

One of the best buffets in the city of Kansas Missouri and tbh this place makes Cici's Pizza looks like a joke. The fried chicken was perfectly cooked and juicy, the cheese bread was delightful, the salad bar was refreshing and the pepperoni, sausage and cheese pizzas were satisfying.

I rarely give a chain more than 3 stars, because well, chain. I had the opportunity to give this place a try and was pleasantly surprised. The pizza was not the best in the world, but it was not the worst either. If someone had a bunch of folks to feed, or a gaggle of kids, this place seems as though it might be a relatively good option for them. Maybe it was the fact that it was catered for our office or it was just a fluke, but I doubt it.

For being a cookie cutter buffet type pizza place this is actually rather good. The staff are friendly, and quickly keep the place clean which is uncommon for a pizza buffet. The pizza and cheesy breadsticks will leave you wanting more until you have to roll out the door. But the real unsung hero here is the chicken. I place it my top 10 for chicken I've eaten, and I eat at much nicer places than pizza buffets. They should probably rename this the chicken shack. 5 stars from me, and I'll be back.

  • Cassie Hale

Valuable lunch buffet with plenty of delicious choices. Friendly helpful service at the register. Super impressed with how fast the one lady was bussing tables and keeping the place looking fresh and clean, she needs a raise. Unrelated note, some of the games in the game room do not work and took my credits off without letting me play. There wasn't really anyone around to tell but just wanted someone to be aware so they can keep an eye out.

It was a lot smaller than I thought it should be. 6 to 8 pizzas to choose from. Fried chicken which was delicious mashed potatoes gravy corn green bean mixed vegetables and stuffy we're all on one station. The next station was the salad bar very small the dressings took up most of it they had a mini bar with dessert pizzas I think there may have been four. Not worth the $15 a person

Had just stopped at the nearby county annex to pay property taxes. Long line, long wait. Happened by the Ranch. They had just opened for the day. Food was hot. Chicken was super crispy, super tender and hit the spot. I was ravenous and concentrated on that and mash potatoes and gravy. Had some cheese bread too. Been there before and haven't had any negative experiences. It's buffet style so go eat!

Overall very good food. They always have very good tasting chicken. The pizza selection was good also. A few surprised me being on the spicy side but okay. I went into this location as soon as they opened, so very good selection before the lunch rush came in. Everything was nice and hot and fresh. No complaints here, with the exception that maybe the cashier could offer me a Rewards card, instead of keep asking if I have one. I keep forgetting to get one.

  • Ben Gassaway

It was a cloudy day as i sauntered up to the counter, to order grub & a drank. The Ranch hands were busy, the allure was inviting as I ordered a drink, to wash down the trail dust,& readied myself for some of the tastiest chow this side of the Pecos. Nxt time you're in these parts it might behoove you to indulge yourself to ride on in to the Pizza Ranch, where you'll be treated, with courtesy & a smiling face & some warm vittles for a hungry stranger.

  • Mike

It's always a hit or miss here. Food is either great or mediocre. Food was ok this trip but even the new stuff put out seemed as if it sat out a while. Takes too long to refill the chicken. Still love going here as long as I request a special pizza because I know it'll be fresh.

Waited for the order person to get off his phone. No price list anywhere. Ordered buffet for two, was $36. I was expecting great food for the price. The salad bar looked terrible, the pizza looked picked over. None of the pizza was labeled. You just looked and guessed. The dessert pizza was hard and dry. Half of the tables need bussing. It really was a disappointing experience. I won't go back.

I use to come here alot ..but the price has went up and they don't have a variety of food to raise the price like that. There are buffets that is much cheaper than this and had a lot of food to pick. But the service is wonderful

Fried Chicken Mashed Potatoes with Gravy with Green Beans

  • Charles Wells

Went for dinner service 3/18. We're there from 7:50-8:25. There was very little food on the buffet. There was no chicken except for one pan brought out for the whole resteraunt. It was deleted quickly. Went for chicken there was no chicken. Also no visible manager to complain too. Terrible use of 16 dollars

The pizza sauce was not to my liking. It was more tomato sauce than pizza sauce. The chicken was hot and juicy! The vegetables were bland with little or no seasoning used in cooking them. With all that said it's a buffet and as buffets go it was average. It's more for kids and the elderly looking for somewhere to socialize.

I have been here many times and I can say it keeps getting worse each time I try it. This last time I went was right after Everything was reopening after Covid-19 and you couldn’t serve yourself which was fine but the girl that was getting the food was rude and impatient. I went to the one in Independence and it was like night and day how much better it was! I recommend if you go there to request a pizza so you know it’s fresh

  • Robert Knapp

I start off with the only good thing, dessert wasn't bad coming back up. I threw up multiple times from leaving this place. I only had this to eat today, so nothing else could cause it. I will not be coming back and hope people would stay away from this place. Food sucked even if I didn't throw it up, the options are very limited and the staff is rude.

Disappointing trip. We went to pizza ranch several times when we lived in Iowa. Decided to go to Pizza Ranch for the first time since we moved to the k.C. area. Very disappointing very slow to bring out food. The guy pick up plates was doing a great job as was the girl running the cash register everyone else not so much.

Absolutely disgusting-all but 4 tables were clean, very little to zero food on any areas. Staff did not make any eye contact to greet. The bus person only wiped of the dirty tables-no cleaning products had been applied. All trash cans were over flowing to include the soapless bathroom. Never again.

Terrible is the only word to describe Pizza street. Went to a few in the early 2000 in Minnesota and it was excellent. This one not so much. Even in the busy dinner rush there is not enough Pizza or anything else on the buffet. If you like waiting this is the place for you.

Salad bar, pizza bar, misc bat (fried chicken *that's real good*, mashed potatoes and gravy, etc.) And a dessert bar. They also have vanilla ice cream. There is a small arcade that's like power play, get a card loaded and some games give you points to get stuff. Bathrooms are nice. It's not exactly cheap but not to shabby of a place.
