I visited Pizza Ranch and overall found it to be a decent family-style buffet experience. The unlimited pizza and their crispy fried chicken were definitely what stood out—both warm, filling, and satisfying—but I thought many of the pizzas were under-topped and somewhat bland. The salad bar and sides were serviceable, though not particularly fresh or exciting. It was edible and entertaining, especially for kids, but don’t expect gourmet pizza.

Good variety of pizzas here that you don’t get at other buffets, like BLT and steak and onion, yum! Was impressed when we went for lunch and the cashier asked if there were any pizza flavor requests, which they then made and notified me when it hit the buffet! Cheesy sticks are fantastic, and the cactus bread (dessert pizza) is good too. Staff was quick to clear dirty plates. Took off a star because all of the sodas seemed low on carbonation and it’s on the pricey side.

Went yesterday to enjoy the wings buffet. Usually go to the Peoria pizza ranch but because I’m closer to Morton I thought I’d give this one a shot. Went around 6 , we walked in , paid and were a bit taken back about how dirty the actual eating area was. I would say they were short staff but it was pretty quiet and 70 percent of the staff were in the back ( understandable ) , some were just chilling and one person was actually cleaning. The pizza was a bit older , no biggie , however the chicken was insanely distasteful and clearly had been out for a bit. Same with the wings. I understand making product push out before replenishing but the only thing there truly appetizing and fresh was the dessert ( kudos). It wasn’t very busy there compared to the Peoria pizza ranch( which is always popping). Very sad , I wanted to like it but I’ll stick with the Peoria pizza ranch.

This place used to be wonderful!! You were always greeted with a sweet smiling face, it was clean, and the food was edible. Went there yesterday it was almost $40 for lunch which is fine but we had an emergency and I asked them if I could have a box to put a few items in and they refused and I thought you know is nasty as this place is do I really even want to take any of it home and get sick off of it…. I don’t know what you guys did to this place but I will never ever return… We got some burnt potato chips and two pieces of crusty pizza for $40

Rude, give you a number to place on the table, but never call the number, just put your pizza on the buffet and yell across the restaurant Pizza here, then your expected to drop everything and rush up before everyone else grabs it. Asking about it and was told Morton gives out numbers and does not bring it to the table, also they are not in the same city as Peoria and they do it differently. Why in the world did you give us a number to put on the table then? Besides that, the Chicken was burnt, desert table was empty the whole time we were there and the pizza table never really changed. I would say avoid this place and go to Peoria location where they bring your pizza to the table, have things fully sticked and the employees are nice to you. Morton did have a really nice employee, the young man cleaning tables, he was spectacular . Avoid this place. $35 dinner and you leave hungry still and this is an all you can eat. Cannot get full when the food is never there and what was there was burnt. You owe us a refund Pizza Ranch in Morton. 33,000,000 views on my account and counting so everyone take notice, don’t waste money here.

We decided to try the brunch for the very first time at Pizza Ranch and might I add it was pretty good! We were literally the only people in the restaurant about 10:30 a.m. it was quite a surprise! We had the whole brunch buffet to ourselves which consisted of three pizzas and then the sides that I posted in the picture. The biscuits and gravy were actually the best out of everything there and they had Chocolate milk too! They also had desserts for breakfast which were nice n warm! The eggs were just okay I think it might have been the type of cheese they were using so they weren’t my favorite but everything else was pretty good. If you haven’t been there for brunch yet I suggest going to try it out!

Super nice greeter. So happy to see you with a big old smile! Food was fresh and areas were very clean. Staff walking around to pick up finished plates to keep your table clear. Total family place for sure. Lots of room for seating.
Wish they had blue cheese dressing.

It’s ok for the masses, but my concerns are the pizza crust is so hard to eat, so chewy and they can’t seem to be able to or refuse to cut the slices cleanly so I can just pick it up without having to stand there and fight with it to get a slice. I do like the fried chicken when it’s available and cooked through. The chicken coating could use a little less salt. I love the soft serve ice cream.

The pizza sauce did not meet my expectations, as it resembled marinara rather than traditional pizza sauce. The chicken was fresh and well-prepared. The dressing, mashed potatoes, and gravy were satisfactory. The ice cream was exceptional, reminiscent of frozen custard. However, the pricing was quite high, with a total of $64 and a few cents for two adults and two children aged 9 and 10. My decision to dine here was primarily driven by my grandchildren’s hunger and the delay in their mother’s SNAP benefits due to the government shutdown. I aimed to provide them with a substantial meal, given the uncertainty of when their benefits would be accessible.
