This is the coolest Bonanza on the planet! If you have never gone it is really worth the trip! The food is amazing, every single thing that l put in my mouth was better than wonderful. You really don’t expect a buffet to be this awesome, especially in this day and age. This little jem is sparkling clean, the buffet is kept well stocked and orderly. The staff was seriously serious about what they do and took pride in their work. The food is fresh and delicious. The decor is adorable, we met the owner and he was so nice, he told us his mom did the decorating! There is plenty of seating for all occasions, it is child friendly, young and old alike will love this place, the kids will beg to go back. There are so many things to eat, see and enjoy, l seriously can not wait to go back. I can’t remember the owners name but he took the time to talk to us and tell us the history of this sweet piece of the past, he even took a picture with us!

$15.50 to sit in a very hot restaurant holy cow sweet was rolling down all of our heads no airflow at all food was okay but when you are that hot nothing else matters my sister said something about it being so hot the first girl said the A/C was not working and they had been looking for a new one then the manager said the a/c was working just fine its just hot outside but as you can see from the pictures there was water running out of the a/c and the panel was off like they had been working on it I don’t like to be lied to it would of been better had she just said we are waiting on a new one so sorry and on the way out she was yelling at the girl that told us it was not working very professional

We have visited there the last few times we were in Lincoln and have enjoyed it very much. The food is usually delicious, and we appreciate the friendly service and the beautiful music. We invited some friends from Springfield to meet us there the evening of Aug. 12 and were very disappointed. The floor was dirty, the tables weren’t cleaned, and empty plates weren’t removed from our table in a timely manner. It seemed there wasn’t adult supervision that evening and we were embarrassed that we’d asked our friends to meet us there. I’m hoping this was just a fluke but we want to know if we can depend on a pleasant evening before we return.

Our family’s first visit here. We live about 1 hour and 30 min away. We were down near Bloomington, and decided to me the extra drive. Glad we did. Food was hot and delicious. Owner stopped by the table to see how our experience was. Kind and friendly employees. Variety of food. Gladly coming back again in the future.

possibly the worst dining experience ever. extremely overpriced for the low quality product they serve. As far as this franchise is concerned they should probably stop using low quality suppliers and actually purchase the product through the corporation they are supposed too.

furthermore this establishment is very dirty
staff are not properly trained. nice people I suppose however that doesn’t excuse the extremely poor quality of the establishment. obviously any positive reviews are locals or fake accounts to outweigh the negative reviews. the old man must be rolling in his grave. this place use to be fantastic years ago but have since then decided to abandon good business practices and go directly for the highest profit margin on what they have. if you want to use low quality suppliers then do so but adjust your pricing by about -60% or use the quality the corporation supplies. this is why franchises are a joke.

My husband and I went on a visit. We got there early and had time to kill so we decided to get something to eat. He said it’s either McDonald’s or Bonanza. I of course chose Bonanza. Hadn’t seen one in years. We went in ordered our food plus the Buffet. I’m telling you, my mouth fell in love. I’m a picky eater. Everything I ate was amazing. When my steak and potato got there, I thought I’d died and gone to heaven. Everything was very good. I Loved it! I am definitely going to have to go back there again. The staff was very polite and the place was clean. It was Great!

Stopped here while playing in the RT 66 soccer tournament.
Let me just say, this visit was amazing! All the ways from the perfectly cooked stale to 2 outstanding wait staff!

My boys definitely got to much attention from them lady at the register to the gentleman passing out the fresh hot rolls and cookies!

Thank you Bonanza for an enjoyable lunch!

Buffet was good with the exception of mushy noodles in the beef and noodles, ribs and chicken were great. Steak I ordered was good but the baked potato was definitely UNDER COOKED. the service from the women were nice, friendly, and smiles. The guys on the other hand looked like they were in the worst depressed mood ever.

We were very disappointed. The food was not the quality that it was. When they brought the hot rolls around to our table they were burnt. My husband’s steak was tough and full of fat and grizzle. The buffet did not have the amount of food to choose from as in the past. We now remember why we have not been there since last September. It cost us $47 for three adults to eat. We will not be in a hurry to return.
