Ponderosa Steak House - Beaver Falls

I've been here with my husband for years. There are some good waiters who seem to check back with their customers often, but in the last few years we have experienced long waiting times before a waitress would come to our table to get our drinks. It is disturbing when we sit directly near the beverage area and at MANY events it will be between two and four waiters's only BS... for a long time. We need to go forward where you pay to send them are waitress. Too often there are no rollers in the bar. The waitress has to stop talking so much and waiting for her tables.

Great food, great prices. The staff us really nice at least the ones working the day I was there. Food selection was pretty solid especially for the dessert to me is very good as well. Their wings are amazing too. I had the buffet I didn't order anything additional. 7.99 lunch special.

The variety is very BASIC. The wings seem to be the only thing worth a notable mention on the bar. I ordered the buffet and the pork chop which turned out to be boneless, and not evenly cooked. Lots of Senior's frequent this place, and it seems to be comparable to the closed down Fire Mountain. It totally lacks ambience and obviously reflects the management style. I would suggest being a little more creative with the menu. Chicken and meatloaf were pretty much it in the meat department. Totally no variety. Make food desirable and enticing. Just because it's cheap don't mean it should lack quality. I wanted to ask for a refund, but didn't want the stress.

Food was subpar at best. Service was excellent and the dining room was clean. The salad bar needed attention. Some items were wilted on the salad bar and many items were almost empty. The wings used to be very good but the were terrible. Several of the sauces had a film on the top which is not appetizing. The steak was okay, nothing great but the new shrimp were not good. Now we understand why there was a 40 minute wait at several area restaurants and you weren't busy whatsoever. I hope this review is helpful to bring ponderosa back the was it used to be.

This was our first time back in about 15 years and I remembered why we stopped going there. None of the food had any flavor. None. It was like eating flour paste with different shapes and textures. Truly horrible. Our bill for 3 people was $50 for bad food. It was also freezing cold in the restaurant. I was wearing a sweater and had to put my coat on while I waited for my husband to finish eating. I will say there was a lot of terrible food a large variety of it on the buffet. But it was all bad.
