Ryan’s

The food is disgusting. The walls are falling apart, the walls ain’t even painted right like BRUH? So like I got this weird chicken looking thing and that was tougher then the rubber on my Converse and gray asf over all the food is nasty wouldn’t recommend it.

I was a little disappointed with the lack of dessert options but overall the food was pretty good.

This place was disgusting… I counted at least 12 tables from my view point that had not been cleaned… steak knives and utensils on the floor… the guys busting the tables were the same guys bringing drinks. so in the middle of cleaning other folks tables he would stop and bring drinks. with look like smeared mash potatoes on side of glass… yuck. the floor was so dirty… it felt like something was crawling up my leg… I had enough… didnt have the heart to go into restroom. will never come back here!

Pretty nice here for an all-​you-​can-​eat buffet. The exterior of the building has some pretty nice stonework, and exudes an air of something a bit more upscale. Even on a busy Sunday, the interior was also very meticulously maintained which has to be quite the challenge when dealing with the hungry hordes.
The food here is simple, somewhat southern, comfort food, For me, that meant my first plate consisted of nothing but pinto beans with ham and boiled cabbage. The fried chicken was hot and fresh, and you can also get small portions of steak that are supposedly cooked to order. I was not a fan of the steak. I asked the guy behind the grill for something medium-​rare, and he pulled out a steak bit from a heating pan of liquid. Not only was it well done, it was parboiled. Yuck. They did have good baked potatoes, which made up a little for the great steak blunder. The desert selection was fabulous; all small portions, so you could sample without going overboard.
Our server was fantastic. She kept up with our drinks, and kept us well supplied with warm dinner rolls and butter. Plus she offered us coffee when we reached the desert portion of our meals, which was a perfectly welcomed pick-​me-​up!
Highly superior to the Old Country Buffet, which is their sister restaurant!

I went there twice with acquaintances.
A lot of bland and unhealthy options on the AYCE buffet… The desserts were too sugary.
The drinks are expensive.
It is easy and free to park.

This restaurant is so disgusting it warrants no stars! However, I had to give it 1 star to post.
Visited last week for mid-​day lunch. After waiting a few minutes for the hostess to come back to the register, greet us and for us to pre-​pay, I was asked if I wanted to pre-​pay my tip as well! What? How do I know what level of service I will receive?
We decided to use the restroom and wash our hands before eating. On our way there I observed ice cream mix oozing out of the self serve machine and food all over the floor in front of the buffet stands and unrestrained, screaming children with grubby hands and snotty noses hovering over the desserts.
The women’s bathroom looked like an outhouse. Explosive diarrhea on the seats, stopped up toilets, used paper towels everywhere, towel dispensers out of paper. Water dripping all over the sinks.
Having second thoughts about staying but hungry as ever (and from out of town), we decided to see if we could at least find a morsel or two to tide us over until we could get to a different restaurant for a more palatable meal.
We searched for a seat only to find booths half wiped down, in disrepair and dirty dishes which were in the process of being bussed sitting on random tabletops in heaps. We found the lesser of the evils, brushed away a few errant crumbs and I proceeded first in search of something edible.
It seems they were out of everything I wanted including fried chicken and fish. I settled on a lone piece of baked chicken, mashed potatoes, a dollop of macaroni and cheese and a salad. The salad was not cold enough. I pulled the leaves from the bottom as well as the veggies and salad dressing.
Overall, the food was edible at best. The potatoes tasted like they came out of a box. Ick! No seconds for us! Definitely no dessert.
The only redeeming part of the visit was the nice waitress who did her best to put a smile on her face and make sure we had oven fresh rolls and honey butter. I will say those were tasty and I had two.
Never ever patronizing this establishment again.

A blast from the past for us since our Comstock Park Ryan’s closed years ago. The food was okay and the staff mostly nice and helpful. The restaurant though was a mess. It was Sunday dinner time but the floors were a mess and the restrooms were filthy. It could have been a better experience.

Well, I did love coming to Ryans once in a great while but now I will never be back here. I remember when RYANS WAS RYANS. The food was really good and I mean GOOD years ago. I visited this past Saturday close to 3:30. When I was waiting in line some other people were in front of us and I am really sure they were charged for the lunch price because they mentioned if they still were on it and the girl said yes. When it was my turn the girl said we just changed over for dinner and have to pay the dinner price at exactly 3:30. I should have said something because that’s not right at all. I mean the people in front of me are going to eat the same food.
Well, the food is not good at all and had no variety really. IT’s just the basic food items so it’s not worth the dinner paying 30 dollars for 2 people. The desserts are terrible. No variety at all what so ever. Anyway, to make a long story short! The food/​dessert are not what it was back in the day. It’s all gone cheap. I won’t be back.

This buffet is not great and certainly not terrible. I would say middle of the pack as to the food quality. There isn’t as much of a variety as other buffets though. There are some issues that should be addressed soon however. The layout of the buffet is poorly designed. The two main serving stations are really close to each other and it gets clustered and crowded. I’ve seen countless times of people bumping into each other and their food flying off the plates to the floor. The interior of the building is way past the stage of needed remodeling. The wall paper is peeling on the walls especially up by the ceilings. The décor is outdated. The carpets omg I dont know anything usefull of them, they are sticky, smelly, and just plain disguisting. The bathrooms are barely acceptable. They stink. The wait staff seems to work hard and make sure they are doing their jobs, thats a big plus. All in all its not that bad as some suggest.
I sure hope they bring this buffet back to its former self, decent and clean. Because its far from clean…

I don’t get it for those ppl gave this place bad reviews… be honest for this price is over my estimates!!! The service are very nice!!! They r quite busy so how can u require them so patient to you all the time? My bf and I went this place twice and the foods quality r both very good! Steaks are delicious and tasty and juicy! I mean to this place u pay $ 11.29 for a steak buffet is very valuable;)! Maybe some foods r not meet your expectations but overall is a good place to enjoy your meal! I am very recommend this place!

The salad I had wasn’t washed, the place was dirty, the quality of food has declined, understaffed, and carpet was black. Will not be going there again.

Nothing different from its sister store (restaurant) Old Country Buffet. sticky floors. dirty bathrooms service ok. Same food items as well…

Me and my family used to love going to Ryan’s. We haven’t been in about a yr but went recently and it was distasteful. The restrooms were filthy. The food was average but overall appearance of the restaurant made you think twice. The desert bar had ice cream topping everywhere but the ice cream, counter, floor, ect. It wasn’t the same probably our last visit there.

I’ve lowered the rating from 2 to 1 star. Terrible service! Spoke to manager and he said literally nothing. He could care less.

BEWARE eating here was the worst meal I ever had. I’ll NEVER go back. The food from the salads to the gristly steak was subpar. For the cost of over $ 40 for two adults and two kids under 10 I left here felling ripped off.

This is your typical buffet… trough-​like. I’m not big on the feed yourself from a community trough, but I went here with family. We went on a Sunday and had a party of 6. It was semi-​busy when we arrived. We sat down to a dirty table that soon got wiped & then we waited at least 20 minutes for silverware. Our tables both had all their plates full of food & no way to eat. The kitchen had run out of utensils. My advice… bring plastic if you want to eat right away. Our server was friendly and did her best to keep up with her tables. Finally we got forks and 1 knife to share amongst all of us. There were no napkins in most of the holders and patrons were borrowing from other people’s tables just to get napkins. The clientele was a little underdressed I guess. People coming in with pants below their butts. One lady sitting across from my family (we had children with us) had a short skirt on and well let’s just say she wasn’t hiding anything and had no qualms with sharing all that she had. The food was pretty good. Had a cut of steak that was deliciously tender and we couldn’t get enough of the huge rolls. The desserts were mediocre at best and the ice cream machine was out of order the day we were there.

Save your $. Food was ok at best, but the restaurant itself was nasty. the floors were sticky, and the smell coming from the bathroom that lingered out into the dining room was nasty. The only good point of our visit to Ryan’s was our server, Paula. She was on the ball and very attentive. But we will NEVER go to Ryan’s again & I suggest the same to anyone reading this review.

I was asked to have dinner here, usually it’s not too bad.
We ate here last night, the steak was good but all the other stuff was just low end food reminds me of a bad night at country buffet. But it was only $ 10 each !!!
The desert table looked like it was worked over by unruled kids and no one cleaned it up. Never again! Now I know why we didn’t have to wait !

It’s a cheap buffet, so the food isn’t going to be fantastic. It’s good for what it’s supposed to be. Clean and wait staff is attentive.

I know that they are connected at the hip with Old Country. So I wasn’t expecting much. On Sunday they do not serve lunch. They go from breakfast, straight to dinner? Great! 25 dollars for two people. I could have gone to a restaurant and gotten served. I went to the carving station 3 times and nobody would even look at me from behind the counter. Is that self serve also? If I had a pocket knife I would have cut it myself. I know all the food is straight out of a bag. But if you don’t read the directions, it will turn out even crappier than it is suppose to. The Jello had a hard film over the top of it that you couldn’t even chew. Yuk! The fried chicken tasted like the oil was burnt. The pulled pork was horrible. But the crowd was a delight to watch and listening to these broads talking about their kids crapping in their pants. If Walmart ran a buffet. This would be it!
