Been wanting to try Roni’s for quite some time now. Finally made it over there and regretted it. I ordered pulled pork for my meat and it was very chewy. I ended up picking around it, I also walked in and was not greeted by a worker and instead had to order on a screen. There was no option for the drizzle on the side when ordering on the screen. Will not be back.

Roni's is great, just don't use DoorDash. Food tastes better when it's not ice cold and soggy. Sorry Roni's, maybe get on IowaEatz instead.
I ordered today because Roni's is giving free food to kids under 12. I'll continue to order, but only when I can go pick it up myself.

I like everything about the place except for the food. It was alright. Not my favorite. I love the vibes though.

Solid food. Solid choices! Had Mac with brisket, veg and garlic bread. Garlic bread should be cooked more. It was soggy bread! Little expensive for why you get.

The Mac and cheese was sooo dry! I added extra cheese but it was just on the top. My bowl had pulled pork and bbq sauce drizzle which was honestly better than the Mac. Just disappointed in how dry it was. My guest had a grilled cheese with Mac n cheese inside and pesto. It was delicious though very soggy bread. The interior was so smoky we had to cut our visit short as it was very irritating to the eyes and throat. Ordering at the kiosk was easy. Not sure it’s worth a trip back tbh but I’m glad we tried it. I expected much more for the price point due to how hyped up it was on tik tok. I’ll stick with my homemade Mac n cheese inside guess.

Definitely, absolutely would come back. Doesn't even taste like Kraft.

I've been itching to get to Roni's for years now! I was so excited when they finally opened one up in Iowa! I got noodles, pulled pork, corn, extra cheese, and garlic sauce with a side of cheesey garlic bread and it was so good. It was way more food than I could eat so I took half home for my husband to enjoy. It was kind of pricey but we got two meals out of it and it was so good! We'll definitely be back!

A new concept for us. But creating our own masterpiece with Mac and cheese works.

The food is hot, the overall service is very quick and friendly, it’s a very clean establishment.
The Mac and cheese is super watery.
The price is way too much for what you’re getting, if you did want to try it, I recommend the grilled cheese instead, but the quality of the Mac n cheese is very poor.
It’s additional for meat and extra cheese. About $17 as a whole with l meat and extra cheese, not worth the second trip.

The food was excellent. We did have to wait in line a little bit, but it was the weekend before college started and there were college students everywhere. The wait was actually pretty short considering how busy everything was. Ordering on site is done on touch screens, which was nice to be able to make sure our order got in correctly. Our food was ready pretty quickly, and was hot, fresh, and delicious. The downsides were the noise level (they had a cornhole game set up inside, and it's a small place that's already loud when full), it was pretty warm in there (broken A/C, maybe?), and for some reason the air was a bit smokey, like they burned something in the kitchen. I would definitely eat there again, though.
They DO have gluten-free options, but I was not with any of my family that needs it, so I can't attest to how safe it is for anyone who has Celiac Disease vs. an intolerance. It was just too busy and loud to try to ask.

The food was so good! I got a Mac n cheese with Gouda, brisket, an bbq sauce. Cheesecake was great too! The restaurant was just a bit warm inside compared to it being 70 outside and it seemed a bit smoky as well. Also with how busy the location is, it would be nice if they had restrooms with stalls rather than 1 restroom for each gender. Genuinely no complaints about the food though!
