Bob Evans Restaurant

Cinnamon and icing on pancakes need I say more! One thing I can say is throughout all my travels any time there was a Bob Evans the food has always been consistent. There have been a few occasions where some weight times may have been longer but what do you really expect. Some people write reviews slamming Bob Evans but the reality is it’s a chain semi fast food restaurant not a place that offers valet parking and baked Alaska. Get real people! Bobevans is OK with me.

After 6 – 7 visits I can say this place consistently has problems with order accuracy, professional wait staff (mainly competency issues), and wait times. I have even seen employees ignore requests after making eye contact. I observed no team approach or desire to truly meet customer needs. The service I experienced here has been terrible every time for me and my family. It’s not fully my choice to visit this restaurant (work related) otherwise I would not come back. The span of my 6 – 7 visits was over the last five months. Each visit has been on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday and always after 4PM. I don’t want to revisit this restaurant.

Got the job done for a good, quick breakfast. Came here for breakfast this morning. Got the farmers special (eggs, pancakes, grits & sausage). All was well as expected. Pancakes were not dry or overcooked, the grits were well cooked and the sausage was perfectly cooked as I would expect from a Bob Evans. My only complaint, food wise, was the eggs. It seemed like a small amount for two eggs and they were almost a bit overcooked.
The waitress was ok. She wasn’t the best person I ever had but she wasn’t terrible either. It’s well enough to warrant a return.

Terrible experience. I go in and ask to be seated by a table with a wall charger because my phone was dead and I needed to check some phone emails. The hostess had a very non caring attitude, and since I saw this I told her I’d find my own table. I sit and let her know where I am sitting. I smiled and said thank you when she handed me the menu but got no response at all. I waited for almost 15 minutes and no one came. I went up to the cashier register and told the employee that I haven’t been helped and I didn’t want to eat there anymore, and that I was deciding whether or not to order to go. I didn’t get any meaningful apology, nor did they try to make up for their rude mistake. Never going back there or any of their chain again.

Bob Evans, IMO, is like an East/​Midwest version of a Coco’s. Their claim to fame is that everything is farm-​fresh. We both ordered the salad and soup lunch. My cheese potato soup was just ok; potatoes needed to be cooked a little bit longer to incorporate into the soup better. The balsamic dressing on my salad was very nice. the salad itself was nothing special — romaine, sad-​looking (and way too thick) slices of red onion, grape tomatoes, and cucumber slices. My husband tried the chili (just okay) and the bean soup (which he loved). The banana bread was good, but did not have that home-​made feel (my mom bakes amazing banana bread and it no where compared to hers). Everyone raves about their biscuits; to tell you the truth, the flavor on them was mediocre and the texture was just all-​wrong for a biscuit: way too chewy, sort of like a cross between a biscuit and Wonder Bread.
UNFORTUNATELY, we had the occassion to eat at another Bob Evans the next day (much to my obvious dismay); I ordered a chicken sandwich without the chicken (I don’t eat meat); it was supposed to come with cheese, spinach, and portabella mushrooms on ciabatta. Well… they brought it out with a few leaves of spinach and some par-​melted cheese; no portabellas; the ciabatta was hysterical — something that looks like ciabatta, but with the taste of Wonder bread. They did, however, honor my request for a side of fresh banana slices and grapes.
I guess if you like bland, stodgy food, then this place is probably considered to be excellent; however, coming from California, I found this place to be your run-​of-​the-​mill family style restaurant. Better than Denny’s, and my husband would argue better than Coco’s; but nevertheless, nothing to write home about.

I personally believe there is no breakfast like a Bob Evans breakfast. My tradition is breakfast with my step dad any Sunday that I am in town and I truly look forward to it.
They make any classic breakfast food you could think of from oatmeal, any kind of eggs, pancakes, toast, potatoes, etc. I’ve pretty much had it all in time and like it all. Their pancakes are my favorite pancakes but occasionally have to opt out of pancakes so that I can have potatoes and a biscuit.
They do get a Sunday church rush but we generally have no wait at 9:00 to 9:30. They are quick to seat you and quick to take your order and bring out your food.
The two things that I don’t love is that it is almost fast food but at a sit down restaurant. I often feel rushed. To that point, when the check is delivered with the meal is a turn off. If I wanted to order anything else this would pretty much keep me from ordering it.

The place was nice the staff was great some of the patrons where just weird like to stare at people and watch them eat
