Older place. Good food. Easy to have a larger group like 10 to 12 people. They also have a party room that can be reserved. They put out a vegetarian pizza on our request.

A solid 4 stars, possibly more. Selection was kinda low, but what was there, was good. Diverse items for the space they have to work with. Fried chicken could use a little more flavor, but all in all, definitely not regrettable.

Just another nasty pizza ranch. I don’t understand how people can say. This is good, but then I look at their other reviews.

Lived in Ackley for 7 years, moved out then came back to visit this nostalgic pizza joint. It never changed, and tasted absolutely divine! You won’t be disappointed, I wasn’t after being gone for years.

The absolute worst pizza ranch in existence!! We came in at 6:30pm on a Friday night and the buffet was nearly completely empty. The little food that remained consisted of really old gummy instant mashed potatoes, 2 pieces of cactus bread, and 3 pieces of possibly week-old chicken. The salad bar was equally repulsive and I was sincerely concerned that the food might not even be safe. The bathroom was tiny and didn’t have a changing table. The highchair they gave is was broken and very filthy. The restaurant was filled with hungry, angry people but the staff appeared to be completely incompetent. In the hour that we stayed, they only brought out about 7 pizzas and some chicken. This was not nearly enough to feed everyone. We finally just gave up waiting for more food to appear and left. I’ll never go back again.

Disappointed in Ackley. They have really gone down hill on Tuesdays. It used to be fun to take my daughter but now the pizza you want on the buffet isn’t brought out for 40+ minutes.
