Runza is a Midwest restaurant that serves runza, which is a yeast dough bread pocket filled with ground beef and cabbage or sauerkraut and onions. Plus or minus some. A MIDWEST THING SINCE 1949 - Started by Sally Everett, expanded by her son, and still run by her grandchildren. Our recipes and processes are decades old. Our ingredients are not. We started in Lincoln, Nebraska, then expanded throughout the state and into some neighboring states. To keep it fresh, we choose not to go national.

WE SAY "HOMEMADE FRESH" SANDWICHES - We’re up before sunrise preparing the dough, seasoning ground beef with our top-secret blend of spices, and forming it all in to the perfect sandwich you know and love. The Runza® Sandwich features fresh-baked bread stuffed with ground beef, onions, our secret blend of spices, and yes, cabbage. I ordered the Cheese Runza - "We take our incredible Original Runza® sandwich and bake it up fresh – then we slice it open and add American cheese right when you order it. It’s our most popular Runza® Sandwich, with the cheese melting over that perfectly-seasoned ground beef and cabbage." Plus a side of frings - fries mixed with onion rings. This is a thick, hearty sandwich that will stick to your ribs. The sides would've been 10 times better if they were super crispy. Grade: B
