Runza Restaurants Serving real food requires a real commitment. It all begins bright and early each morning. Instead of serving breakfast, we’re making homemade bread dough from scratch. We’re hand-slicing onions. We’re shredding lettuce for our salads. We’re stirring up homemade chili and fresh ground beef filling for Runza® Sandwiches. It’s a labor-intensive process that doesn’t let up until long after closing time. We know there are easier ways to do all this, but our commitment to doing things the right way is as real as our food, and that’s not something we’re going to change.
Fast-food chain known for namesake German sandwiches, plus burgers, onion rings & crinkle-cut fries.

This runza is not a reflection of most. I have been here twice recently and both times have had been very poor food quality. (Chicken strips were the size of a ketchup cup.
The service is very bland with very little communication and essentially is the opposite of a the hospitality you get at other locations.
It truthfully feels like this location doesn’t have the dedication to detail as the others.

I’m not from Nebraska, I came to stay with my brother for a while though and tried this place out and I was very happy with my experience there.
Honestly it’s better than a lot of the stuff I have in my area (Five guys etc.) and I’d absolutely love to see this franchise expand out of state. If we had some of these on the East Coast, I’d be going regularly.
Just a really great experience. The menu was simple but enough to still have variety and not feel overwhelming. The food itself was very fresh and very tasty, fries were on point, crispy and complemented the meal well, add a shake to the mix and you’re in heaven.
Prices are definitely worth it, again when you compare it to things like five guys that will charge you roughly around the same or more and imo less quality. I just know if I had one of these in my actual area/state, I’d be making it my go to burger joint.
For the value, what the menu offers and the food itself, I honestly don’t think those “major” brands even come close to touching this little gem. Nebraska definitely has something special with this franchise. Staff was very friendly as well, welcoming and patient (out of state lol) to let me look at the menu before ordering.
The restaurant itself was very laid back and chill, I actually ate in (which I haven’t done in years) and the place was pretty much spotless and very clean. As I was enjoying my meal, I was always seeing the staff constantly working and just cleaning the place up, refilling the condiments etc.
Couldn’t give this place any higher of a review but if you’re ever in the state of Nebraska (just cause Idk if it’s exclusive to the state or maybe they have expanded a little out, aka Iowa etc.) definitely check them out, you won’t be disappointed!

My ice cream was too small. But the quality is awesome.

This is the best Runza restaurant I’ve ever been to. Everything was so fresh including the iced tea. The restaurant was clean and inviting. My food was not greasy. It was a to go order but I wasn’t afraid to set the bag on the seat like in most fast food places. Great job.

There needs to be Runza’s ALL ACROSS the USA !!!
We came last year on a job, it was recommended to us and we fell in love with the food. Now we’re back on the same job, but we vane here FIRST!
We were NOT disappointed! It was even better than last time. I can’t wait to come back!
(I meant to show a picture of the whole sandwich but it smelled SO GOOD I forgot and started eating it, sorrybut at least I can show you post of it.)

I’ve always liked Runzas from way back when I was a kid and ate my first one just outside pioneers park , when they were awesome and not franchised yet . Last evening 8 p.m. stop by the Crete Runza drive thru , was starving , ordered a cheese runza and a hamburger , sandwiches only . Got 1 mile out of town opened the hamburger and it was cold and dry , oh I had my food in about 2 minutes after I ordered it . So I choked down this so called precooked burger , grabbed the runza , uncooked dough , nothing but mushy cabbage and burger inside , tasted weird and had a burn on the outside like a microwave burn . Threw it out the window way to the sloppy , mushy filling with uncooked dough . A wad of gross . $12.02 wasted for left over lunch / dinner run sandwiches . It’s to bad Runza has gotten to this point , DQ ,is right next door , might have to try them once , always dedicated my food choice in Crete to the Runza store . Never again . York Runza is not good either .

Placed an order in the drive through. Got home grease leaked through a little white bag they had our order in. Opened the bag and onion rings were thrown into our white sack without it even in a container. Grease soaked through our bag. Called up there to speak to a manager and their is not one on duty. Kid acted like it was a bother to even call up there.

I loved runza in this town. Key word LOVED. not only did I have to go back to get my order remade. The food we got was undercooked after we went back. I have a photo of a pink really pink burger. This establishment was the only good store in crete now like dq and burger king it’s complete trash.

Runza never disappoints. I’ve about tried everything on the menu. I love it when they offer specialty limited runza recipes. The runza app is great too!

Young people nowadays just don’t really want to work. Service is to be desired. Food has always been good. Runzas are not what they used to be. Much smaller and the fries aren’t as good anymore either. I’d say you get what you pay for. But runza is very $. We don’t go there very often at all for those reasons.
