Pizza Ranch

Pizza Ranch is one of our favorite restaurants in Elk River. We have made it a family favorite visiting often. The Elk River location has a great staff and the food is always fresh and hot. Being able to order exactly what we want to go with our buffet meal is an added bonus. My wife always orders her favorite pizza. Highly recommend!

Staff were friendly and helpful. The group dining rooms were handy, especially with little kids; they can run around and spill food but not disturb other values Ranchers. For the kids, Milk is preferred over those toxic soft drinks. Salad bar was really good for this type of place. Fries chikkon rivals Kwik Trip :). You will definitely want to try the blueberry dessert pizza. On the down side, the ice tea was weak.

Pizza ranch is a great place to go out to eat. Whether you're by yourself or with a family all are welcome. The owners Denise and Rob treat you like family and are two of the hardest working folks I've ever seen and they really do a great job. We've been to other Pizza ranches in the area and elk River one is by far the best. Thanks and keep up the great work. training those young bright hard-working staff and thank you for your service to our community!

Very good food and service. Clean environment and the ice cream and dessert options are so good!! I love that you can request a pizza and they’ll make it for you fresh! The only thing I would suggest is that they broaden their menu items that aren’t pizza. They have a small selection of other foods but could add some more! Overall great place, will be going back!

I see all the four and five star reviews. But, this Monday did not pass the test. Firstly, the salad bar was an absolute disgrace. Toppings were mixed in with each other and there was hardly any salad in the salad bar. The fried Chicken was a major disappointment. I think it's time to change out the oil. It tasted like it was over fried in old oil. All of the batter crumbled off the chicken before we could get it on our plate. The saving grace was the dessert pizza. That was very good. Oh, I have one last thing to share with the restaurant. Don't have your staff hover over the tables waiting to clean them. It makes your customers feel very uncomfortable like you just want them to leave. They did do a good job of pre-clearing the tables though.

My mom called on Saturday afternoon an order of chicken, wedges, and mashed potatoes and gravy for pickup on Sunday at 12:30, something done many times without a hitch. This time however when I arrived at 12:30, the order was nowhere near ready. First I was told 6 minutes. I waited 15 before coming back in, to be told shortly. Then, a supervisor of sorts, Josh, came out and offered to comp the wedges. A few minutes later, offered a 2 liter of pop (which was old and flat). After a half hour of waiting, they comped the whole bit. I was irritated that it took 33 minutes to get my order, but the fun didn't stop. Got the food back home, and it looked absolutely awful, skin was shredded off the chicken, and almost none of it was even hot. Barely warm actually. Never had this issue before here or anywhere else for that fact. Comped or not, worst quality of food and customer experience I've had in a very long time. If I could post the pictures of the food received I would. I have them.

Tonight i decided to stop in at my local Elk River Pizza Ranch and treat myself. It's always a great place and the food is excellent. But tonight was different. I asked about a specific pizza and was told they would make me whatever I wanted and bring it right to my table. Wow! Then my new favorite friend, Allie, started giving me some of her personal recommendations so i went with those. Then she hand delivered that fresh pizza right to my table and wanted me to try it to make sure i liked it. It was awesome. But then she told me that she personally went back there and made it for me herself!! Just a lot of WOW tonight. Allie, thanks for the awesome pizza and a very memorable time at the ranch tonight. You made my whole day! I cant wait to come back.

One of the best Pizza Ranches I've been to! Energetic owner, great staff, and the buffet is always well stocked and CLEAN! I love most Pizza Ranches, but I will always go out of my way to go to this Pizza Ranch specifically because they always have cold Chicken on the salad bar and their lettuce is never brown for wilted! I do wish they had cranberries on the salad bar though... hahaha!
