I had lunch at Rania's on a Saturday at lunch. Nice atmosphere. I had the prime rib special. It was tender and very good for the price. I would highly recommend.

My gf and I were at the Speedway for a charity event and wanted to go somewhere nice for dinner after . We looked up Ranias and liked the reviews . The place looked nice when we walked in but being only one of two parties in the entire place made me wonder if they were getting ready to close. I'm not sure who is doing the reviewing but our experience was anything but 5 stars .

The chicken dish my gf ordered was sub par at best and the prime rib dish I ordered was tough as shoe leather and looked more like a well done flat iron steak . The only things that actually tasted decent was the tomato basil cream soup for my appetizer and the chocolate mousse cake we shared for dessert. For the price I paid for everything at the end of the night , I should have recieved better quality from the kitchen .

We won't be going here again the next time we come through the area . I would not recommend to anyone unless they get a better cook in the kitchen

Our group of friends had lunch at Ranias on Tuesday, 11/12. I just want to commend our awesome and VERY Impressive waitress, Shavonda!! We were a party of 16 and she took care of us so quickly and professionally with kindness and a big smile! But most impressive was her ability to take all our orders without writing anything down!!! And every order was correct even with special request!’ She even took our group photo for us😃 Thank you for a wonderful experience and great meal!

This is a lovely place inside. It is so very well decorated that I had to take a few pictures. Do shrimp cocktail was very good though not traditional. The stuffed mushrooms were excellent. And the prime rib was cooked just right. Our server was super friendly and very helpful.

I can't believe we've been here for almost three years and had not yet tried this place. It was awesome! And Friday night is piano guy night. 😀

Last Wednesday evening I wanted to take my son and daughter to the nicest restaurant in town so we went to Rania's. It was 6 p.m., supposedly a prime dinner hour. We entered and there was no one up front to greet us. We stood there for several minutes and my son loudly shook the bells on the front door to try to get someone's attention but no one came. My daughter had to use the restroom so she went to the back and said that she did not see a server anywhere. There was a table of customers that we could hear and that she passed on the way to the restrooms. My son shook the bell again and we waited but no one came. I finally walked a little toward the serving doors and shouted out "Yoo Hoo!"......crickets. We left after waiting approximately 15 minutes.
I give two stars because the food and service are usually excellent at Rania's. We were highly disappointed that no one came to show us to a table.

Very pricey! Mediocre food, really not good; heinously salty and low quality meat. Staff was friendly, sure, but not well trained.

I love going to Rania's. The food is good and sitting inside or out on a nice day is pleasant. I should have ordered the double redfish as the single wasn't much to eat, my ?. The fish was awesome though. My husband loved his salad though and received plenty to eat. Love they have herbal ice or hot teas with no sugar.

Dietary restrictions: I'm a diabetic and my husband eats low carb and we try to eat right.

They provided us with eggplant Parm, ravioli carbonara, lasagna, and mixed salad in family style takeout tins so that I could serve a quick home buffet dinner for family gathering of 10 people. The food was delicious and fresh! We loved the round Egyptian Bread with garlic with herbs. Big success with the family members

Took wife for mothers day and now we're both back at home praying we don't get sick. Food was absolutely disgusting. Crab cakes were rancid, oysters Rockefeller were nasty, n the prime rib isn't even prime rib. Service was good and the beer was cold, hence the 1 star

The prime rib had a terrible flavor, the ranch dressing was like water and the prices are way too high for the food. Will definitely not be going back.

The service was spectacular, you are greeted pleasantly and service was quick. However, the food does not match the ambience of the restaurant and is not close to Italian cuisine as depicted. I wish that they reconstruct their menu to something more manageable to help bring out quality, especially if they are pricing dishes at a higher range.The salmon: overcooked, one side was burnt and portion was too small for the price (size of my palm) the broccoli that it came with was drenched in lemon flavourThe lobster ravioli: the sauce had no flavor and the ravioli filling was coldThe complimentary bread served with marinara: some pieces were hard, some were not, the marinara tasted like an unseasoned salsaThe side salad: it was drenching in water, was not properly strained. As I added my ranch dressing, the ranch became watered downThe highlight of our meal was the chocolate cake. It was delightful. I really wish the best for this small business and hope that they improve or figure things out.
