Bob Evans RestaurantsReviews of bobevans.com

Not enough servers and cooks. It makes us feel like you don't really want very many customers. Bob Evans used to be busy all day long 20 -25 years ago. What the he'll happened. Executive management must suck to let the franchise fall as low as it has. Either get better or close the doors!

My family visited Bob Evans July 19 2025 on Highway 27 Davenport Fla. We were in town on vacation from Georgia and wanted more of brunch than breakfast. We had a party of 18, we understood we had to wait..we waited, NO PROBLEM! we were told they were putting a big table together only to get around the corner to be split up all across the restaurant and walk back and forth tending to kids and sorting out food. 3 different waitresses who seemed to have stuffy attitudes. Good took forever, missing food. Checks all split up wrong. Food portions sucked for the prices we paid. The host was the only friendly person we ran into, i didn’t get her name but she was a young black lady with long red hair thank you for greeting everyone and maintaining a smile when faced with large groups of people. If i lived in Davenport Fla i probably wouldn’t return to this establishment. Out of 18 people only 5 were satisfied.

My daughter and I had lunch at a bob evans today and it was one of my worst restaurant experiences ever! The waitress was not that busy but kept avoiding our table for some reason. she acted like we were bothering her to take our order. After food came she never checked to see if food was ok we never saw her again. We had needed more salad dressing we could not get her attention. when we asked her for to go box and bill she made another person bring them to us the lady that brought us the bill said she had no idea why waitress told her to do that. we were nothing but polite and pleasant. Terrible!!

Food was expensive, cold and nearly tasteless. I gave them 2 stars because the waitress was friendly and patient

I ordered the Thanksgiving meal for six guests at $100. The food was beautifully packed but too small for six guests,if each guest eats two plates. The ham tast d average and consisted of just four slices. There is way too much stuffing and not enough turkey. Each guest only had two small slices. Will be cooking myself again, next year. 🥴

Service. From being seated to waited on, very poorly done. The young man who seated us looked like he was pulled away from cleaning the bathrooms. No pleasantries, just complaining about how busy it was going to get. The waitress seemed bothered that the two of us wanted to look at the breakfast menu. She came back with a cup of coffee filled to the brim and a small container of creamer, and a pot of warm tea. We watched two other waitresses take care of at least 5 other tables in a very efficient manner, those customers who were seated about the same time as us, and others a bit later, had their food well before we received our orders. At least 15 minutes later. The same tables had finished and left before we even got our bill. I must add, the first cup of coffee was the only cup I got. When I was presented with my tab, the waitress then attempted to refill my cup which had been empty for at least 20 minutes. Much to her surprise, the pot didn't have but a half cup in it, and it wasn't even hot. Needless to say, what normally would take about45 minutes as a Bob Evans customer to have a good sit-down breakfast approached an hour and a half. This visit had to be my worst experience in what is one of my favorite places to eat. Store #186 in Amherst Ohio. If you go there, stay clear of the grumpy, short, 50 something lady. She is clearly not happy with her position. I've been to the stores in Avon, Oh, Elyria, Oh, and several other locations in Hampton Roads Virginia. Without ever having a thing negative to say. These employees sheer lack of decent service should be checked.

I ordered steaks tips my wife ordered turkey dinner. Sat down at 7 dinners were served 7:25. The mashed potatoes the dressing the broccoli the turkey the steak tips All Luke Warm.

Food flavor was good but it all was so cold it lost all of its appeal. The plates seemed to have come directly from a refrigerator which added to the problem. The soup came out with the dinner and at best was Luke warm, the biscuits were cold enough they they were rock hard. The hot tea water was not warm enough for the tea bag to work, but, that I returned and it came back ok. The cold food could have been contributed by the restraint dining room temperature being well below any reasonable comfort level, Dave green
