Fort Ball Pizza Palace

This is one of our favorite places for Italian food when we are in Tiffin, Ohio.They have a nice selection of items to top your salad with. The only thing is the lettuce is shredded, which is ok, but some may not prefer it that way. I enjoy the whole pickled eggs and sliced beets topped with some French dressing on my lettuce. They also have jello, puddings, and other soft foods, which children enjoy as well as adults.Good selection of pizzas, lasagna, spaghetti, Ravioli, Mac n cheese, fold overs, white pizza, and cinnamon sticks.The buffet is stocked well, even at peak times.If a buffet isn't what you're looking for, they do have several selections on their regular menu that you can pick from. The menu includes things like pizza and a nice selection of submarine sandwiches. Note - their subs are excellent and are made with fresh Italian bread loaves. They have soft drinks and beer available and prices are reasonable.Review #8/2016

This is a great place with the best buffet in Tiffin. So many great things to eat from here. The service is fantastic and the ambiance is inviting.

If you are looking for a quick, easy, and everything but a healthy place to eat this is the place for you. They gots a plethora of rancid eats on that buffet of theirs. I starts out with a plate of that fettuccini and macs and cheeses and i topped that off with some of that garlic bread. Overall i gives plate one a 7/10. Macs and cheeses was subpar. I then goes up and i gets myself a plate of pizza with some pepperoni on it, not a bad endeavor, about a 8/10. For plate three i gets myself 2 dozen of them pickled eggs, those made my stomach churn a little after I endulged in them so I had to make a trip to the facilities. I done blown up that toilet so bad I had to get the manager to come and unclog that toilet of his. Overall this little pizza palace is a nice local restaurant and i gives it a 7/10 for the overall experience. One critique i gots for this establishment that would perhaps upper my rating is the rancid ratio of carbohydrates to other nutrition groups available at that buffet.Them pickled eggs i eats is probably abt the only thing they gots up there that contains any sort of protein

I have been coming to Fort ball for over three years now, and it's pretty mediocre. Sometimes a few small surprises but always matched with a few disappointments. The pizza and buffet is decent at best, but the price matches so that checks out. My main complaint is the completely out of date and run-down decor. The seats are falling apart, it's dim but not in a "mood" type of way. But my biggest complaint of all would be the restrooms.I waited to write a review for three years to give a local business the benefit of the doubt, but there have been holes in the men and women's restroom doors for over three years, the restrooms are mysteriously wet, the hand soap dispenser leaks soap all over the sink, and the restroom doors only lock with a hook latch you'd expect to find on a gas station stall, let alone that it's on the actual door to the restroom. It is very clear that the owners/managers have lost whatever passion they had for their restaurant and sacrificed it to keep enough food getting dried out under the heat lamps on the buffet trough. Hopefully they make some changes and I can update my review, in the meantime...have two stars for at least qualifying as a place that sells food at a decent price.***UPDATE***: They have at least attempted to "fix" the restroom doors. They have now put a wooden patch over the holes, which is at the very least more than nothing at all.SECOND UPDATE 4/14/19:Nothing has changed, one waitress running the entire dining room and cash register, all salad dressings unlabeled for an interesting salad lottery. Stained drop ceiling, poorly lit back room.

I love this place, always have and always will. The food is really good, the people are great. If I visit Tiffin and do not eat Fort Ball my trip is incomplete. The bread and dough is made fresh daily and it is amazing. I ate at Fort Ball daily for over 5 years while working there in high school and college and it didn't get old. It is the same delicious food today as it was then (over 25 yrs ago). The owners and employees take pride in their food and service. It's truly an establishment.

It had been years since I had been here before this visit. I definitely remember the food being much better. All the food was hot on the buffet, plenty of options but honestly none of it really had any taste or flavor. The pasta and pizza sauces are def missing some spices. Toppings were lacking on the pizzas. Even the garlic cheese sticks were disappointing on taste. They need to revert back to before whatever they changed. Not impressed AT ALL.

We want to thank the manager, waitress and cooks today who prepared the delicious buffet of Italian food/pizza/salad & exceptional service to our hungry team after playing Heidelberg. Everyone loved the food and appreciated you packing up extras for the 4 hr bus trip back to Indiana! This is a great business with exceptional food and service!!

I have been ordering food after work; I would say they are extremely friendly! And a great place to get food from. The food is amazing and always prepped as it comes to order and taste fresh every time. Their pricing is extremely well priced. It is a very nice pizza parlor I strongly recommend on visiting this location and trying there amazing food. They have an amazing customer service.

drove 30 min out of route because it's the best looking place open but there hours are completely different than what maps tell you

Alfredo was undercooked and cold. The pizza wasn't very good. Worker was scratching their body and face and was touching dough I don't recommend. It's sad cause they used to be good. Waitress was nice and friendly though.
