My wife said the salad bar was good....but salad is pretty hard to get wrong. The stuffed bell pepper was pretty good. The fried chicken was the best thing on the buffet. The waitress was attentive and very polite.
The scrambled eggs reminded me of the powdered eggs served in military chow halls. The pizza was not very good either. The spaghetti and meatballs needed more seasoning. Mostly lack luster.
When we walked in there was a weird smell I could not place because the smell of the food. On the way out I went to the bathroom and found out what the smell is. There is some kind of sewer issue going on not just some dude having stomach issues but something in the lines bubbling back through or something. Had I realized it upon entry we would have went someplace else to eat.

We went in on mother's day and they were only serving the buffet. I was pleasantly surprised. We have always liked their pizza, which was on the buffet, but they also had fried chicken, ribs, and breakfast foods. Everything tasted great!
Took off one star because it was pretty clear they didn't want us to stay long. We had to ask for refills on our drinks several times. I kind of get it because it was busy, but still.

Ria's is kind of off of the beaten path. However, their food is awesome very reasonably priced they have a lunch buffet every day from 11:00 to probably 2 pm. They're Pizza is excellent, salad bar is great, plus there are other options like fried chicken vegetables potatoes etc. The price for one person is roughly $14, in my book that's a win-win for an all-you-can-eat restaurant for lunch.

Beautiful place with lots of parking. Very unusual smell outside like they're having sewer problems.
We arrived after 9am and the buffet was empty even though there wasn't very many people there. What was available was good.
Our server seemed to only want to visit one side of the table for drink refills and we had to make sure to try and catch her if we wanted more water. There was only one other table that was in her section.
All in all we might try again someday, maybe earlier in the morning after they open.

Ok, I get it it's a Sunday and 5pm it's been a long day and sometimes the after church crowd can be emotionally and physically exhausting, but the place was dirty, my table was sticky. And had salt spilled on it. I didn't feel welcome, the booth seat slipped forward while I was sitting and underneath it was trash and crumbs. My water Glass was dirty and the buffet looked dried out. We were just going to order off menu as reviews looked promising and I try to give places a chance but decided to go elsewhere . After the dirty bathroom sealed the deal. First impressions are important.

Came with 11 people and got on the wait list. We waited over an hour and they seated every smaller group behind us. All they had to do was put a couple tables together. We ended up leaving and not getting seated.

I had only done Ria's lunch buffet and hadn't done it for a couple years because buffet food never sets well with me. I was pleasantly surprised with our Saturday evening visit!! The servers were pleasant and attentive but most importantly, our food was wonderful. Everything was fresh and hot! Will definitely be going back.

While the food was very good, the service was somewhat questionable. I reviewed my meal within 10 to 15 minutes, my wife received her meal about 15 or 20 minutes later. To make things worse, one in our party didn't receive her meal until almost everyone was finished eating.
