Ponderosa offers a nostalgic dining experience with a well-maintained buffet, friendly staff, and ample parking. The buffet food is noted to be hot and fresh, with wings that are praised for being amazing and not dry. Guests enjoy the steak, especially when cooked perfectly rare, which brings back fond memories. One customer mentioned the 6 oz sirloin dinner with a loaded baked potato and salad bar, where the steak was juicy, lightly seasoned, and melted in the mouth. The salad buffet is popular, and many take leftovers home, finding the steak still moist when reheated the next day. While some visitors have expressed disappointment about the availability of sirloin tips, the overall dining experience remains enjoyable. The attentive waitress has enhanced the experience for groups, and the restaurant is wheelchair accessible, though more handicap parking spots would be helpful. The restaurant is kept clean, including the bathrooms, and free refills for chocolate milk are still available. The buffet can sometimes have spillage from others, and busy days may lead to longer waits for food. The management has improved, and the staff are happy and welcoming. Overall, Ponderosa continues to be a warm, nostalgic place that many enjoy returning to after years.
