The restaurant was pretty much empty

The restaurant was pretty much empty. The employees were very nice, the food not so much. We used to eat at Bob Evans a lot. No more. The food was cold, the coffee was cold and there were no napkins on the table. They provided only exactly what we asked for. 4 little packs of sugar-free jelly, a tiny container of milk for the coffee, and cold toast. Nothing to make the meal enjoyable. The pepper mill was filthy and almost empty. No condiments on the table and not one extra napkin. The one napkin we each had was razor-thin and useless. All in all, a real waste of money. This is my third try at going back to Bob Evans after the pandemic. No more.

I stay at a hotel in Temple Terrace Fl next to a Bob Evan’s when in town for business and have for 10 years. I always order the same thing, Cranberry Pecan chicken salad; I even have it 2-3 nights. I used to love this! Tonight I have decided I will never order from Bob Evan’s again. That said it is now all processed chicken bites instead of roasted breasts, pecans are few and little chips instead of full or half pecans, lettuce dropping just not good. I am so sad but understand why they may going out of business the quality is. It there. After 10 years I am bummed!

Terrible service Finneytown in Cincinnati

I would give no stars if I could. I got there a little after 3. Went to the Finneytown location in Cincinnati, OH. I will never go there again unless I order it to go. First it took longer than it should to get a table since it was not that many people there. I did get waited on soon after I got my table. Just ordered a salad and it took forever to get it. Then took a long time to get my check then no one to check me out. Waited a long time. I just left the money with the receipt on counter and gave a small tip. It was close to 4:30 before I got out of there with only a salad and hardly anyone there. They didn’t even care. Terrible customer service. Don’t know how they can stay in business. I have to say the one in Forest Park or Springdale is good. Service is great, even when very busy. I would give that location 4-5 stars.

Awesome place for Breakfast and an occasional Turkey Dinner. The General Manager Petrona is the BEST. She does it all - manage staff, cook, hostess, clear tables and clean the bathrooms. Food is always prepared the way I ask for it, served hot and delicious. I love this place. Mr. Ray

I bought a whole peanut butter pie and you couldn’t taste the peanut butter filling for the whipped cream that was 3 time thicker than the filling. Wasted $14.99

Horrible Bob Evans experience

I recently had the unfortunate experience of dining at Bob Evans, and it was nothing short of disappointing. From the moment I walked in, it was evident that the restaurant had serious issues with its service and food quality. First and foremost, the service was incredibly slow. Despite the fact that the restaurant was not particularly busy, it took an excruciatingly long time for a server to acknowledge our presence and seat us. Once seated, it only got worse. Our orders were taken with an apathetic attitude, and the wait staff seemed disinterested in providing even basic customer service. We waited an unreasonably long time for our food to arrive, which only added to our frustration. When our food finally did arrive, it was shockingly cold. It was as if it had been left sitting on a counter for an extended period before being brought to our table. The dishes lacked any freshness and were visibly unappetizing. The flavors were bland, and the textures were off. It was clear that the food had been rushed, resulting in an unsatisfactory dining experience. Not only was the food cold and unappetizing, but it was also evident that it had been sitting under a heat lamp for far too long. Overall, my visit to Bob Evans was an incredibly disappointing one. The slow service, coupled with the fact that our food arrived cold and lacking in quality, left a sour taste in my mouth. I would strongly advise against dining at this establishment if you value prompt service and food that is served fresh and at the appropriate temperature. Bob Evans has a lot of improvements to make in order to meet even the most basic expectations of its customers.

Best service I ever had

Our server Chad was beyond terrific. He went out of his way to make our experience fantastic. The food was phenomenal, and it was one of the cleanest restaurants I have been in.

Inappropriate manager

Well we decided to go to Bob Evans for dinner and after we were seated we heard the manager talking loudly to one of the servers about that she wanted her to work on her day off and then Lucy said to the manager I’m sorry I can’t it’s my day off and I have plans! So then the manager was very abrupt with her and was more or less demanding that this server was going to work whether she wanted to or not !!! The manager said to the server ‘’will see’’ Everyone could her the manager… We just thought it was very rude of the manager of this Resturant on Washington road to be talking to this server the way she was in front of everyone ….by the way this server that she was talking to loudly , she is the best waitress they have!! she’s amazing people go to that Bob Evans because they love her… she treats her customers very nice , with respect and she’s one of the best waitresses or servers that we’ve ever had anywhere….also we felt bad to have to experience this situation …. Every time we eat there this waitress is always working

This restaurant is really going under

This restaurant is really going under. I will never enter into this Bob Evans again. The food was absolutely terrible. The women's restroom floor looked like the toilet was leaking and to find out they just cleaned the bathroom. There were big puddles of water around the toilet. Just doesn't seem that anyone takes pride in working and or customer service. Starts with management and down to your employees. Very sad to this establishment service deteriorate.

My wife and I recently stopped at the Summersville, WV location. I ordered the chicken and biscuits dish. I have eaten this meal before at other Bob Evans restautants. However the meal I received at this restaurant had only a couple of bite sized pieces of chicken in it. It was basically a biscuit and noodles meal. Very disappointing.

Terrible for the money!

Ordered 2 big salads. Both of the salads only filled HALF of the container, a small salad and a cup of chicken and noodles. The salad dressings for the salads were not enough to even cover the salads! I couldn’t even taste the salad dressing it was so scant. For $13.88 a salad there should be more dressing! Worst then that the cup of soup was in their VERY small containers and it was only 1/2 full. Maybe an inch and a half full. For $4.49! We will reconsider our next carry out restaurant! Almost $50 for this! Terrible!

Horrible carrots

I ordered a family meal today that included carrots. They were rancid, just the most horrible thing ever. I'm not sure how you can spoil carrots but they managed to conquer it. The grilled chicken and salad, rolls, were perfect but the carrots should not be served. I hope they weren't serving dining room these or everyone would've been sending them back unless they've lost all sense of smell and taste.

Stay away. Constant disapointment

Went over a year without eating at the Bob Evans in Piqua and should have never given them this last chance. Ordered breakfast to be delivered, received the order and part of it isn't there. Ordered Sausage gravy and biscuits along with another order for my daughter. Got the gravy, but no biscuits. Paid $7.49, called and they offered me a $2 discount. Wow, thanks, don't want the money back, I'll take it as a lesson learned. Waiting on my biscuits to come out of the oven so I can finally eat my Breakfast. It won't happen again, that's a promise. I was stupid for going back.

If you don't tip on line when you order …

I've ordered several dinner chicken meals from Bob Evans in Laurel Maryland, first 3 times I tipped on line when I ordered. This time I decided to tip on the inside when I picked up. The food was terrible when I got home, the portions were smaller, the apple pie was dried up, and basically old crumbled crust. Just a totally different experience, when you don't tip on line.
