My favorite Ponderosa Steakhouse in Indiana, because of it's very clean, open atmosphere...in comparison to others. I personally like the Salmon best.

Christine Warren

13:45 29 Jun 18

Good place to eat. Good prices and good food. Nice clean atmosphere with friendly service. If your a trucker and want a good meal its a short walk across the parking lot from Chuckles. I will be stopping in every time I'm in the area staging out for a load or doing a 10 hour break.

Great choices on the buffet and salad bar!! Got there towards end of the night, not much for pies left. Otherwise, great place!

Paul Sievers

Jackie Combs

Restaurant was nice and clean service was quick and friendly food is nice and hot today. Just an overall family atmosphere I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good family cooked meal.

Kristen Jensen

21:45 04 Jun 18

Great friendly service. Only issue was they had ribs on the buffet and the server was only able to give us one napkin per customer per the management.

Matthew Kindred

Wayne Wolfe

Janet Ferguson

We have always eaten at the Amish restaurant in Montgomery when we are up that way. We decided after our visit to the Ponderosa today that we prefer it over the Amish one. So we will definitely return. Thanks.

The only reason I did not give you guys a five in some of the veggies on the bar looked overcooked and old! But everything else was great

We come here every Sunday, had one bad experience with a rotten baked potatoe but they made good on it, took care of it nicely and the manager was great. This will not keep us from coming back, the food is good and steaks are yummy.

Gary Stuffle

13:37 27 Jun 17

It is best to go early in the mealtime. Good variety and choices on the buffet. Nice banquet room for large groups. Food is respectable for a buffet.

Erick Shoup

Bruce Scott

Joe Lorey

12:26 04 Apr 17

Meat is about average for this kind of restaurant, although the hot bar and desert bar are outstanding! All in all....good food for a decent price. I would recommend it!

Norman Brown

03:43 16 Mar 17

The best buffet I've ever had. Not the biggest though. Very friendly staff.

Ponderosa is Absolutely the Best Place to Eat! I wish we had one in our town! We use to when I was younger...It was even better than I remember. Super Clean! Food was Hot! Lots of Good Choices!

Jessica Weir

22:28 13 Jul 18

This is the second one I've been to. Each one is a little different in their own ways. This one has more dishes that are spicy. Spicy shrimp and spicy fish spicy chicken. There dessert options are different as well. I expected more for what I paid for lunch.

Amy Harris

12:49 06 Jul 18

Love the food, tasty and fresh. Clean dining area and friendly service.

HeyIts TheSingingNoOne

23:34 01 Jun 18

The food is soooo gooood! I hadn't had such good food in a long time! It's a nice, homey atmosphere, and the workers were kind. Would definitely go again if I lived closer!

Karen Crump

00:05 31 Mar 18

Great food and service. We go a couple of times a month. I just wish they had more low sugar desserts for diabetics like a variety of fresh fruits.

John Figg

02:57 21 Mar 18

Great server. The steak was actually full of flavor and was on our table in record time. Reason was, it was almost raw. Sent both back, second time a charm. Done perfectly with juices retained. Good job Ponderosa.

Roger Outler

23:47 03 Mar 18

Unusual to see shrimp on a buffet. They had butterfly shrimp and spicy popcorn shrimp. Both were quite flavorful. Three soups and a decent salad selection. A separate hot bar with chicken, meatloaf and kielbasa. Mashed potatoes were instant; which was a disappointment. Overall, a good buffet that they kept fresh. Good flavor to everything. Several sweet choices; including cookies, brownies, pies, and cake. Ice cream was also available. Had a moist brownie and a dish of ice cream.

Brenda McQueen

The food was very good and the facility was clean. Always stop there on way to Louisville. Waitresses are great!

Daniel Lavely

Ponderosa Steakhouse has been around for as long as I can remember. My gripe with this place is that their prices are pretty damn high when it comes to their buffet. I will say, however, that they have a wide variety of discounts to help alleviate the price. The buffet variety is pretty good, and the help there has never let me down. In fact, I'd say the service at this place may very well be the best in town due to some solid experiences with them in the past. Give this place a try if you're ever comin' through.

Colin Sievers

16:27 18 Feb 18

Great place to eat. Attentive server and the food on the buffet was fresh. The only downside was the depressing country music. A little more variety there would get them 5 stars from me.

Jerry Fisher

02:43 31 Jan 18

Really good steak. Not the best cut in the world, but the taste was great. The buffet was full and clean. Nice job

We live in Terre Haute, Indiana and had to drive here to Vincennes to come eat..we used to have 2 Ponderosa restaurants in Terre Haute, but they closed them down a few yrs ago and we miss the food..

Denise Morris

06:07 28 Jan 17

I've only eaten the buffet. It would never be worth my while to try to eat an entre' and the buffet because there is always so many wonderful choices on the buffet itself. The banana pudding is as good as my mom used to make.

jamie ann griffin

16:01 14 Dec 16

Very nice salad buffet always full and good buffet food choice and always hot. Great service. All food is attended to on buffets very well and steaks are good also
