Bob Evans Restaurants

The revolving wait staff keeps this BE from getting a higher rating. The food is predictable, the service predictable and the prices are predictable. What keeps us coming back? Location and the national menu offerings.
Our order was muddled but nothing huge was missed. The BE sausage gravy is consistent and the biscuits were good. Would love to post that there was something outstanding but that’s just not going to happen today.

After two negative experiences waiting far too long for mediocre food and incorrect orders, our family has pretty much decided to take our business elsewhere. Which is a bummer because before we moved to Marion, Bob Evans was one of our favorite places to eat where we used to live in Ohio. And while Marion doesn’t have much to brag about on the restaurant scene, there are plenty of other more worthy places to eat (IHOP and Richard’s have yet to disappoint). The worst of our two visits was on a family /​kids eat free night, and it was 80 minutes from the time we arrived to time we received our food (we arrived at 6pm, didn’t wait long to be seated, but it was 7:20 before we got our food, and around 8pm, aka «bedtime,» when we left). With 3 young, antsy, hungry kids, those were 80 frustrating minutes I’ll never get back. The management blamed short-​staffing (isn’t that a management issue?) and tried, I suppose, to make it right by taking 10% off our bill, which was appreciated (and why I’m giving two stars instead of just one), but didn’t do much to dissipate the shadow hanging over the experience. Hopefully they get their act together and your experience is better; but I don’t imagine they’ll get a third chance from us.

Had such horrible service, worst assistant manager I have ever met. It would be in «bob Evans» best interest to close this franchise, rather than continue operations as they are.

My girlfriend stop in here for breakfast every now and again. We have always had excellent service and consistent food. The management team here does an excellent job.

Good food. However the eggs had a small hair in them and had to be remade. Restrooms are also dirty. However the service is friendly. We wouldn’t rule out coming here again…

Second time in two weeks waited way too long for food!

So I’m about to say what I always say at a time like this… not bad, for a chain. The people working there were nice enough. The food was ok. But it’s a chain. Ho hum.
They make a big deal about the history of the place and its Ohio roots. Ok, you make sausage and it turned into a restaurant chain.
