Ponderosa Steakhouse

Ponderosa Steakhouse is a family dining experience of the past with an upbeat, modern twist. We are all about quality food at an affordable price. Our menu includes steak, chicken and seafood along with our signature buffet items like salads, soups, appetizers and desserts. With more than 500 locations nationwide, we offer something for everyone - from business lunches to family dinners to date night!

People love buffets, but they hate the low quality food that is usually on offer. Ponderosa Steakhouse offers great tasting steaks at a reasonable price. We don't skimp on quality just to save money. In fact, we use only USDA Choice beef and prepare it in our own kitchen so you always get the highest-quality meat when you come to dine with us. And since we're not limited by a set menu like other restaurants, we can serve up your favorite steak every time! When you want high quality meats at an affordable price, choose Ponderosa Steakhouse for all of your dining needs. Our buffet features top-notch seafood as well as chicken and roast beef cooked to perfection every time! You'll find plenty of sides available too including salads, soups and breads - plus desserts galore! With endless options for everyone's tastes and preferences in mind, there's no better
