Any trip to NE or KS is not complete without our Runza fix! Having moved to CO we make it a special point to grab a Runza or two when we travel. Those savory dough logs are the best. Just the regular ones with a side of crinkly fries. The meal was complete for my wife and me!

I love Runza. I am biased. The original that I got was hot and fresh and so perfect. The chili I had with it was also good. My wife loves there SW Chicken salad. We both got cinnamon rolls.. and they are improved from the older version. I've heard great things about the Philly cheese and mushroom Runza sandwiches, but I always get the original. It's what I grew up with and now that live so far away from their stores it's the first thing I want for lunch when I'm in town. This is a great location. Very handy. Highly recommended.

New to town so had to go by the famous Runza. As a non-cabbage eater I nevertheless found their famous Runza sandwich to be a delight. The cheeseburger was also very well made for a drive thru. Service was quick, positive, and CLEAN. Definitely did not disappoint.

The first thing I noticed when we got here was that the parking lot is tight and awkward. It's hard to get turned around, especially with the drive thru right at the narrow entrance, and when they are busy it backs up to the street. The service is very slow but at least they were all friendly. They crammed too much in the bag and my burger was completely squished. Kinda disappointed because we were traveling through to somewhere with no Runza's. And the burger and Runza's were so peppery it was difficult to eat. Plus the amount of grease leaking out made everything in the bottom of the bag soggy. Overall very disappointed! Especially since I have had many good experiences and was looking forward to a treat we can't get back in Iowa.

I ordered with my family in the drive thru we got our drinks from a nice young man then we waited for like 3-4 minutes which I would say is a little fair considering that it is fresh and good. Then we were given our food by a different man we quickly left as there was a little line behind us when we got home we had none of the right food. So I called and they told me to come pick it up so we did they have it to us for free and gave us a free upgrade to large and a free cookie. I would say it was just a mistake but they handled it very well and were very sweet all I would suggest is better communication

Never had Runza before. Never seen a Runza before. But he grew up with them and wanted to eat here. So we went. There wasn't any chicken or fish alternatives on the menu that I saw so I picked the bacon cheeseburger meal. I learned later that they have a couple of chicken options. I think I would have liked it more. But they have frings which are onion rings and crinkle cut French fries in the same container. That was excellent - I love French fries and I love onion rings and this way I didn't have to choose. Their fries aren't that good though - soft and not as crunchy as I like. The onion rings were well cooked. Easy to bite through - the onion doesn't all come out as the link is not cooked enough. Very good. The bacon cheeseburger was average. Kinda small. Perhaps a Runza sandwich would have been better but I don't eat a lot of meat and didn't feel like one. He liked his meal and so did his parents but not my cup of tea - or burger. Would go back and try a chicken sandwich and have more onion rings.

We heard when in Omaha you have to have a runza and that is what we did! First off this is a chain but where I live they don't have this chain so it was new to me. The place was clean the staff was friendly and the price was great for it being a fast food joint. Now let's get onto the food! It was good! It reminded me of an exotic hot pocket but of course way better!! I really liked the bread. You can tell it was made fresh that day. It had the "yeasty" (is that a word?) taste to it and it was fresh and soft. I was shocked for this being fast food. I ordered the philly cheese steak (of course I did- it's like my favorite go to meal) and it was hot with yummy melted cheese and nice veggies. Would I go back? Yes I would. Would I tell people to eat a "runza" yes I would. totally unique to this area and it is good! Love the history of the "runza"

What garbage food. Cheap ingredients, horrible taste, definitely the worst American fast food. Never, ever going back. If you like this place, your taste buds have been killed by too much cigarette smoke and deer jerkey. McDonald's is a major step up from Runza. The Runza sandwich, fries and onion rings is what I ate and I regret every bite, and I didn't take very many before it ended up in the trash. Update: the following two days I had very bad diarrhea and a fever. I'm from California and this Runza was in Omaha, where I was traveling for business. I later found out from the locals that "Runza gives you the runs-uh". I also later found out that Runza is extremely popular and people travel far and wide to eat it. I can't figure out why. Not only did it taste nasty but I had the runs for two days.

I grew up in Nebraska and ate Runza frequently. I now live in Colorado and we were driving through and stopped for lunch today at this location. The building was very clean but the employees didn't seem to know what they were doing and apparently according to the cook nobody had pulled any Runza's to be made so all of a sudden they got a slew of orders and we're running frantic trying to fill them when they didn't have the product ready. The manager finally yelled at two of the employees and said just go home I'll figure this out myself! They must've thrown the Runza's in the microwave and rushed the order as every single one we had ordered was exploded and wasn't at all how I remember Runza. It was the messiest thing to eat ever.

Stopped here at about 5 o'clock in the evening. The drive-through line was pretty long so I went inside to order. After about five minutes of waiting at an unattended counter I asked the other two customers ahead of me if they had ordered yet. Neither had ordered. It appeared that this restaurant was understaffed and ignoring the front counter to process drive-through orders. So I left. I will stick with restaurants that provide wages and benefits good enough to retain employees.
