Here with a group of 24, they were called previously about us coming and were very unprepared for us. 2 people working and maybe 1 in the kitchen. Over an hour later a few of us still haven't been served while others are done and paying. The people in my group are saying the food is good, I'll take their word, I'm ready to just up and leave.

Fun atmosphere. Arrived around 6 pm. Place was almost empty. Came in with wife and 3 kids. Ordered two salads with Balsamic and received something that resembled Blue Cheese. Kids did not like that choice and did not see the server to ask for new dressings, so kids chose not to eat their salads. Ordered Pretzel bites as an appetizer and it was $9 for 6 little pretzels. They weren’t bad but price was more than double what it should have been.

Had to ask the young lady who brought our appetizers out for a drink refill because we still haven’t seen our server since he took our order. Went to the bar to get refills on our drinks and the bartender was nice an apologetic but it wasn’t her fault.

Now on to the main course. $19 for a 10” pizza seems a bit steep and was a staple into my decision to not want to come back, especially if I have my kids with me. Pizza flavor was not great and not the bang for the buck at all, even after waiting 30 minutes for it to come out.

Server finally came back after helping in the kitchen, which is admirable but the customers who are having to go to the bar to get anything they needs kind of takes away from the experience.

Not recommended if you’re looking for a great place at a reasonable price. Sorry for the honest option ion but 25 years in the restaurant industry you need to be honest sometimes with establishments that rely on customers to stay open.

We ordered cheese curds to start which were good but, they came in a small portion. Not worth the $8.50. Our two small children got corn dogs and fries, fried were soggy, not well cooked. My husband and I got a large pizza which took 45 mins, not sure why, there was 3 people there other than us. It was ok but not worth it. Bill was $50 and we weee there for an hound and a half. Most of which we just waited. Server was friendly.

Service was absolutely horrible. Troy spent more time on his phone and in the bathroom than helping customers. I watched 6 people walk out without getting served while we were there. Only positive was the cook was very helpful.

It’s time to start kicking out the 19 year olds with fake IDs. Additionally was physically grabbed by a waitress even though I had a stamp verifying my age from this very location (I am 23). Owner is not a kind person; definitely needs to reconsider working behind a bar during high traffic.

We refer to this as the bar in the "middle of nowhere". Nice place just south of Ames. The thick crust pizza is awesome! They have lots of unique and fun combinations. Several TV's to watch sports on as well as a large TV projector. Reasonably good prices and decent speed of service.

I had high hopes for this place. I was told they had great food and a fun atmosphere. I didn’t find that, but rather found this… The bar tender had a bad attitude and she really couldn’t make a drink all that well either. The pizza was bland and seemed thrown together in a hurry. I don’t feel as if the prices reflect what you actually receive.

I called and spoke with McKenzie, ordered a pizza to go. McKenzie told me 30 minutes.So I drive to the bar after 30 minutes and walk in to pick up my order. McKenzie tells me that there is no order, I never called and I am a liar because she never makes a mistake.I used to love eating here and getting their pizza a lot. But the help has gone down hill and people like McKenzie think they can treat people how ever she wants.

I went to R Place Pub and Pizza tonight for the very first time. I was impressed. The pizza was exceptional, as was the quick service and atmosphere. What a gem of a restaurant / pub located only 4 miles from Ames. I will be back. :)
