    Went there today, on a Thursday with my family for dinner. My friend had mentioned they had wings on Thursdays a few months back. I have been wanting to try them out. Got their at about 3:45 and left at about 5:30 and they never put them out. I asked multiple employees and they all said in a few minutes. Pretty disappointed about that, but food was still pretty good.

    Dirty and sticky. Staff walks by without acknowledgment of your presence. Greeting at the door was “how can I help you” with obvious disdain and despair. Pizza was cold and minimal choice. Salad bar was as tho a 4 year old had gone thru it previously but was left it that state for our whole visit. The only food choice at the buffet that was well stocked was the fried chicken. You like all you can eat chicken with a side of broken dreams and your shoes sticking to the floor, this is your place.

    Place was dirty, and the food on the buffet was cold, and you could tell it had been there for a while. It seemed like they were short on help, and the ones that were there didn't want to do much.

    I have to say, my visits to the Pizza Ranch in Brainerd, Minnesota have been nothing short of fantastic, and a huge part of that is because of **Molly**. From the moment you walk in, you can immediately feel the warmth and hospitality she brings to the entire experience. Molly is the kind of manager who makes every customer feel like part of the family. Her friendliness and genuine care for people shine through in everything she does. She not only greets you with a smile but also takes the time to check in on every table, making sure everyone’s needs are met. It’s clear that Molly has a deep connection with her team as well—she leads with such professionalism, making sure everything runs smoothly while still taking time to interact with her staff and provide guidance. You can tell they really respect her because she leads by example. What really stands out is how **Molly** ensures the food is always fresh and hot. Whether it’s her overseeing the buffet or managing the kitchen staff, you can trust that the pizza is always perfectly made, and nothing ever seems to run out. There’s something about knowing the food is consistently fresh that elevates the entire dining experience. And while it’s clear Molly manages everything behind the scenes with precision, she’s also always in the dining area, cleaning tables and making sure things are tidy. It’s rare to see a manager so hands-on, but Molly makes it look effortless. Even when she’s busy overseeing everything, she’s always there to make sure your experience is top-notch. Visiting Pizza Ranch in Brainerd isn’t just about getting great food—**it’s an experience in itself, and Molly has made it a GREAT experience**. After visiting three other branches, I can confidently say that I will always choose the Brainerd location. If you want a warm, welcoming environment with top-notch service and food, I highly recommend you come here. Molly is the reason this location stands out and why I’ll be back time and time again! Thanks, Coach Thurman
