Bob Evans

Rosanne was a spot on waitress, friendly and prompt! My over medium eggs came out over hard, but Rosanne quick corrected and fixed my order. Breakfast was delicious and the French toast really yummy!

I’ll never go here again.. I ordered a salad off of the website. I’d was here years ago & I remembered the Wildfire salad & remembered I liked it.
There’s an area on the website where you can request to have things taken off & I requested to have the tortilla chips to the side & no corn. I figure a salad has minimal preparation. Well. First, when I walked in there were no less than 3 – 4 staff standing around the service area chatting & the resturant was empty. 5 min later someone finally came to me to see why I was standing at the counter & I told them I had a to-​go order. Before allowing me to explain, the waitress sneered & told me they never received it before even asking if I placed it on the website. Thanks. Luckily the manager was there & then there was an arguement over who would pick up my order. The manager asked someone to do it & she flat out refused.
So. 15 min later (my order was supposed to be ready at 12:20 & considering there was really no one in the resturant & it’s a salad) I’m watching 4 people scramble to pack my salad asking what’s in my salad. I just want to leave now.
1. A huge amount of corn was on my salad.
2. The tortilla chips, although on the side were stale & gross.
3. The chicken was salty & slimy.
4. The salad is supposed to have scallions & nope no scallions.
5. Apparently «wildfire ranch dressing» is just Thousand Island.
Really guys? If I could give a negative rating I would.

I’ve been here enough now that I’m seeing trends. Service has been great, very friendly. Speed has been great as I can get in and out in under 20 – 25 minutes which is important to me for breakfast. On the downside, I’m pretty sure they pre-​scramble their eggs and let them sit on the side of the grill. They come out looking like they have been exposed to air for some time (a distinct crust on them). If that’s important, ask for them to be made fresh. It may take a few minutes longer but they taste better.

If you’ve been to a Bob Evan’s before, well, this is just like that.
Recently updated, so the interior & menus are fairly new & more stylish.
Service is generally very good & prompt.
Cooks struggle with eggs that aren’t scrambled, over-​easy, or poached. Both my significant other & I take ours over-​medium, and in over 10 visits, they’ve always been delivered over-​easy, for both of us.

Unfortunately, people in Orlando that are not from the midwest and have never had real Bob Evans will think that this chain sucks. Bob Evans is an awesome family restaurant — everywhere else but here. I have given this restaurant chance after chance and they just keep screwing up. Either they screw up our order, or the food is either overcooked (any type of meat/​eggs) or undercooked (mainly home fries, french toast, or french fries). We generally feel like we are not eating at a Bob Evans restaurant. Luckily, we know better, but most people don’t. We have decided that we are going to stop eating at this Bob Evans and stick to the locations up north. We’re just tired of being disappointed.

We were out of town and decided to try Bob Evans– as we don’t have any nearby where we are from. The service was great and the food was very affordable! We recommend you getting their 3 course meal deal. It was also my mom’s birthday and instead of being obnoxious and singing AT her, the manager came and asked her what flavor pie she liked then brought it to her. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.

I want to start this by saying I first emailed corporate with no response from them, so now I will post this on every media I am able to!
I went to this location last Friday with my boyfriend. We had gone to this location before and it wasn’t anything amazing but also wasn’t bad. This last occasion was really bad. Our server walked by our food in the service window at least once as well as manager placing syrup cups on our plates but just didn’t bother to deliver the food. It sat there for at the very least 5 minutes but it was probably more like 8 – 10 minutes. The plates with the eggs, bacon, and hash browns were both cold we also have pancakes and hash browns but they’re a more tolerable but still pretty cold temperature. I had to get the managers attention to have him ask me if I needed him, why yes, why else would I stare directly at you? Tell him the food is cold. He apologized and said he would have it fixed and he would «take care of us» okay great whatever. About two minutes later he comes back with two loaves of bread and says here’s some bread im so sorry the food was cold, we said you didn’t need to do that (quite frankly we didn’t want the bread, what will two people do with two loaves of bread besides waste it?) we just continue to eat the pancakes and French toast. The remade food is finally dropped off by a different manager and he said he would come by and check on us. He never does. And our server has no clue what’s going on at all. She thought we loved the breads so much that we decided to purchase two loaves she didn’t even know we sent our food back while we are eating the remade food we are pleased it’s actually hot, and then I go to take a bite of my pancake with a piece of banana to notice there’s an eggshell on the banana! I am not a picky person, if this were on my eggs it wouldn’t be a big deal. But it was on a sliced banana, really? Then our server drops off the check and we tell her everything that went wrong as well, she’s surprised and goes to the second manager that delivered our food but never came back and told her the check was correct. Full price for everything. I don’t expect to completely eat for free but they could have discounted it some, especially considering we didn’t want the breads. We left the breads on the table and proceeded to the cash out area, the second manager was at a register/​computer there but was much too busy to even acknowledge our presence or ask how things were. The nice hostess asked how things were and we just told her not good and she was the only one who actually seemed genuinely apologetic that we didn’t enjoy our meals.

We were seated fast enough the place was empty
I sat while my wife went to the bathroom
When she came back she said we were leaving
I didn’t ask why and I didn’t want to know

Came here for breakfast today, thinking I’d have great country-​esque, home-​cooked food, but to say I was disappointed is an understatement. The service was slow. It took like 30 minutes from the time we ordered until we got it. There wasn’t anyone here, so I’m not sure why service is so slow. Food was OK. The French toast was soggy and the bacon entirely too crispy. The eggs were all right, but I’ve had better. I had to ask for drink refills and we hardly saw the server once we ordered. Overall, a disappointing experience.

Would give it a half star if knew how. We were seated an diner looked by the waitress not once but 3 times even after I thought I had her attention. We gave up on Bob Evens a while back and were hungry though we would stop in since there were no cars in the parking lot. I wonder why? Manager looked to busy playing on a tablet/​laptop to do anything about it except to tell his story about a broken window on his car.

Food looks nothing like menu pics. «Double chocolate chip» pancakes must mean they normally add one chip and bump it up to two to make it «double». Crepes were cold when served. Toast was un-​toasted bread. When we pointed these issues out, our waitress became very confused. We ended up asking for manager, who was helpful enough and remade a portion of our order. By the time it arrived though, we were full from eating and then sitting and waiting. Overall, very disappointing location.

Bob Evans is Bob Evans. Not spectacular but a good place to get a good meal, breakfast or dinner. We don’t usually go to this location in Lake Mary but we did meet someone for breakfast this time and it was really good. Their coffee is pretty good, much better than many high volume breakfast restaurants.
Farmers Breakfast is my favorite because it gives me a bit of everything. Their sausage gravy and biscuits are a favorite of the family. On rare occasion we come in for dinner. Honestly, the main reason we go for dinner is it is quick and fairly inexpensive. Their salmon dinner is good and my wife loves the turkey dinner.

Food was mostly burned. Sausage gravy was not right. Eggs were not cooked right. Pancakes didn’t taste homemade.

The two stars is a reflection on the food. Would be a one star if it hadn’t been for the very charming server and pretty quick service. The food was beyond disappointing for the price. Granted, it was late night, and not breakfast (which maybe is their specialty). I opted for a half sandwich/​soup combo, which must have run about 7 – 8 bucks. I go out to lunch alot during the week and am pretty familiar with what other chains offer for a half/​half combo. Being $ 8, it should have been a decent one. All over the restaurant is them promoting their soups and how you can get take-​out soup, etc. Signs that the soup must be good, no? So, I opted for the loaded baked potato soup (how can you go wrong with that) and a turkey bacon half sand. It was literally the most disappointing soup I’ve ever ordered. Literally a cheese sauce with cubed al dente (meaning NOT COOKED fully) potatoes and a sprinkle of bacon. It was terrible. The sandwich was OK but was literally the size of a dinner roll. It was ridiculously small on the plate, I should have taken a picture. Again, the service and server was wonderful and maybe it was just bad luck with my order choice this night, but man, what disappointing food. To be fair, I will try and go there for breakfast and give a better review, if warranted then.

I will never return to this Bob Evans restaurant again. After being seated for 10 minutes, I had to ask one of the hosts if we had a server, as we had not been greeted by anyone at the table. After 5 more minutes, the manager stopped by to take our drink orders. Another 10 minutes passed, and a hostess brought us our drinks and wrote our order up. Shortly after, a server stopped and asked if anyone had taken our order. I told her that our order had been taken by the hostess. Nobody else stopped at the table again, except the hostess to bring our food. She didn’t bring us butter for the waffle and french toast. She forgot the eggs I had ordered. We waited 5 minutes for her to return with butter for my waffle which had of course gotten cold. She brought me one scrambled egg instead of two, and just kept apologizing, saying she was supposed to be hosting. My dissatisfaction was not really with her, as she was just clearly not comfortable trying to wait on a table. Instead, I am completely appalled by the obvious inept management. I may have forgiven the poor service if the food had at least been good. My waffle was cold, and tasted like it’d been cross-​contaminated by onions, and my scrambled egg had a distinct rubber flavor. Needless to say, Bob Evans Restaurants will not ever see me again.

They do a decent breakfast.

This is a very casual, homely restaurant with friendly service. The breakfast portions are large and the pancakes are huge. The food was good and very reasonably priced.
Do get the apple pie fries. They’re slices of apple dipped in a batter and deep fried. They’re served with a caramel sauce. Dip lightly, otherwise it might be too sweet.

Good service. Clean dining and bathroom. Always fast seating and speedy servers. Sundays can be pretty busy around the 11 o’clock area.

Across the street from our hotel, we got an early start so wanted to fill up with a good hearty breakfast as our hotel’s breakfast was not set up yet.
This place offers reasonable prices on breakfast, while offering some old time favorites that hubby likes. Biscuits with gravy, omelets, pancakes, waffles, etc…
Shelly was our waitress and she was sweet, kidding around with all her guest and looked like she enjoyed her job. She kept our coffee filled and checked on us twice to see if we needed anything.
I ordered a plain waffle and it was light, fluffy, airy and tasted perfect. Add a little syrup and it hit the spot. Hubby ordered a classic breakfast which consisted of two eggs, sausage patty, and french toast.
The food was good, the coffee was horrible. Orange juice was nice and fresh. I do not know why the coffee was so bad but after half a cup had to order an orange juice.
Decent breakfast with good service, clean restaurant and bathrooms. They also offered a great selection of pies to choose from.
