    One of the first things you'll see when entering this restaurant is a wall saying "Welcome to the Farm" and that's exactly what I was looking for - a farm fresh style breakfast. After being seated without a wait Christa our wonderful server greeted us with menus and took our drink order, she provide such exceptional service. There are so many options available it can be difficult to choose. I noticed how clean the restaurant is and how happy and friendly all the staff seemed which means they must be doing things right here so I applaud the management team as well. The coffee here is so delicious and I say this after visiting a number of Bob Evans Restaurants over the years, it's alway been consistently delicious. After leaving early from the east coast of Florida heading to the Tampa area I knew I would stop for breakfast and was happy to find this place. Being a carnivore of sorts I always look for the options with lots of protein and less carbs, well this combination of food definitely provide a great mix - A Slice of Lean Ham, two slices of premium bacon, two sausage links, two sausage patties, two eggs any style, hashbrowns, one pancake and french toast all for $13.59 which is really an unbelievable value. I omitted the French toast it just seemed too overwhelming and although I ate the entire pancake I left most of the hashbrowns and focused on the plate full of meats which were so delicious as well as the perfectly cooked over-medium eggs and bottomless cup of coffee. Today's experience couldn't have been better and definitely puts this restaurant chain back on my radar. When I compare a lot of the nationally known breakfast restaurants I have to admit this location is a different level and a much better value and higher quality than a lot I've visited lately. I can truely say there's nothing I would of changed today...

    We expected more of a crowd here, but were surprised when we walked in. The prices on the menu are great. They're basically a Denny's, but with a few signature things and great service. We were in and out in about 30 minutes, which is great if you have a destructive toddler who starts going on a rampage. He ran around a bit and everyone there was interacting with him. It was an older crowd earlier in the morning and everyone was friendly. Highly recommended for breakfast, just on the ambience alone. Their side pancakes could've been a meal on its own and the peach tea brewed fresh was amazing.

    The decor was super cute! The service was great. Our waitress was thoughtful and attentive. However, the food was just a little off. While we did expect diner food, the menu did not match the output. Food was under and overcooked depending on the item. For a quick bite to eat and good service, I could see it being a place for big families to go. Sometimes restaurant results vary by the person in role, so maybe we got a new cook or new kitchen person.

    Fluffy and fresh biscuits!

    We'd never been to a Bob Evans before and had no idea what to expect! We were both so very pleased with everything about our experience! Christiana was our server and she's one of the best there is! Super friendly, genuinely happy to be there for us, quick and very attentive. Our food came out quickly, was nice and hot, generous portions and most importantly, delicious! I had the country fried steak and hubby had a ginormous meal with four different meats, eggs, pancakes and french toast! We both had leftovers! We'll definitely be back and highly recommend the Bob Evans in Davenport!

    Before this last weekend I had never been to a Bob Evans before. I always thought it was just another type of Denny's. I have to admit that our breakfast here was excellent! The place had a country type of decor but was not too kitschy. It was also spotless. The menu had a huge variety of breakfast items. There was nothing outrageous, just regular fresh food. I went with two eggs over easy, whole wheat toast, and oatmeal. The rest of the family ordered various breakfast items. Everything came in a timely manner and was cooked to perfection. Our server was friendly and efficient. This may not be the last time I visit a Bob Evans!

    Service was great, food was great, large portions and cheap prices. You can't go wrong with Bob Evans, this is yummy country food at its best. I'd come here over Cracker Barrel any day!

    About the only decent thing was the biscuits only. Service was meh and lacked the basic discipline. And wasn't even checked on by waitress.(Side note when did ear buds/wireless headphones become standard). Ordered Texas loaded fries they had to be reminded about the food. Soup was poorly plated. Didn't match the photo and wasn't that hot. My better half ordered the cheese potato soup(Needed salt/pepper/garlic). Sandwich was ok. This location seems to have officially hit rock bottom. It was going downhill before Covid. But post Covid. I would say this location is done.

    Rancher BBQ dinner that had no BBQ sauce, bacon or the crispy potatoes because they were overcooked and mushy

    I used to go to this restaurant weekly but after spending $33, I need to go home and make my fiance something to eat which is ridiculous. Jon needs to find a different job because he found it funny that there wasn't much food in the Rancher BBQ beef dinner. There wasn't bacon and the potatoes were mushy and he didn't offer or bring any bread which was supposed to come with it. Jon had 2 tables yet I had to find him to get refills on drinks after 15 minutes. When we said something about barely any food in that bowl compared to the pictures he said it's capitalism and laughed at us. The manager was less than 5 feet away when we told Nelly at the register about our experience when she asked and she just smirked. I have been there many times but this will be my last. They acted busy with 3 tables and 2 servers. I don't go out for dinner to get laughed at, smirked at or to have to come home and make something to eat because we paid $14 for a little food that shouldn't even cost $8. I know that this Bob Evans is close to going out of business and I will be happy when I see it.

    Great Start

    A bit disappointed... service was great - waitress was very nice but food was just bland for me. Took a while, plus the food was a bit cold & my toast came out when i was almost done eating my plate.

    We have been coming to this location for many years now but since the pandemic business has slowed and the service has started lacking. On this visit we entered and another couple was in front of us along with a gentleman waiting to pay his bill. We were waiting patiently and the gentleman from the couple in front of us had gone looking for assistance and could not find anyone. The gentleman waiting to pay told him the waitress was in the bathroom. They waited a bit longer and finally left. The waitress then came out of the bathroom and finished wiping her hands and walked past the gentleman at the counter. Someone else who may possibly have been the manager came from the kitchen and took the payment from the gentleman waiting. The waitress then called to us from 30 ft away to seat us. I asked for a table rather than a booth and she went to see us at a table next to the only other people in the restaurant. I chose to sit at a different table. Our waitress was friendly and attentive but did not seem very enthusiastic about working. For me I don't believe that I will be back to this location until after everything has settled down. Employees were wearing masks but it was not being enforced very well for the guests. We did enjoy a good meal.

    BE is all over central Florida, no matter where you look you'll find one. It's a down home restaurant serving up comfort food along with burgers, and breakfast. It's good and the service is attentive. An afternoon visit and we had breakfast, burgers and meatloaf, so there isn't time restrictions when you can eat what. Don't forget to get dessert as it looks and tasted really great.

    First time here. Excellent food! Price is fair. Cute front desk, very clean and updated.

Jenny was hustling! She was juggling our table along with a few larger ones and still kept everything moving smoothly. You can tell she was working hard and we appreciated it. I'm a creature of habit but also not at all I always order a hash...just a different one every time. This time I went with the seasonal Chimichurri Steak & Eggs hash. I got the chimichurri on the side because it can be a little overpowering, and that was the right move. The hash itself was solid--flavorful, hearty, and exactly what I expect from First Watch. Also ordered a mimosa...well, hold the mimosa--just champagne lol. My husband got the BEC and said it was really good too. Consistently great food, efficient service even when it's packed, and just an easy go-to breakfast/brunch spot. Definitely stays in the rotation.

I also like that you pay at the counter when you're done, it's simple and convenient. Overall great experience, we'll be back for brunch!

I've passed this place by on my way to work and figured to stop by sometime; today was the perfect day because Victoria was the sweetest and super swift with her service!

(thanks Victoria ) Managed to snag a photo of my salad as it was purchased with birthday money from a friend; got the Wedge (a la carte, no protein). Even though the produce is "weird" now, every bit of what happens for me next will be all worth it because that salad was delicious! It was one of the best wedge salads I've had in a long while... almost got the soup of the day because French Onion is my favorite but I had some places to be thereafter and "toilet conspiracies caused by produce" was not in my bingo card for my special day For my first time, it was a wonderful experience and service as top tier even though business was a bit slow. Take advantage of this though, because the food from what I've seen looks DELICIOUS Thanks Victoria See you soon!

To be a chain, Ovation Bistro in Davenport FL looks like a good time. Our server was Alex and she was doing everything by herself. Tending bar, serving and busing tables. She was a whirlwind. It is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. You enter through the covered patio area, which on a florida day when it was 97 outside it felt cooler on the patio. We ate inside. When you enter, the bar is to the left and the dining area is on the right. There are both booths and tables in the dining area. And high tops in the bar, besides the bar stool. Ordered a craft beer from 3 Sisters in St. Pete. It was good. For lunch we had the sirloin lunch special and brisket wedge salad. The food was not good. It was bad. And in their defense, maybe they were having an off day or maybe their lunch specials are left overs. The brisket was dry and way past it's prime. I sent it back and they brought me back more dry brisket which I guess they soaked in something, but you could tell it was way over cooked and past it's prime. The sirloin steak was not much better and the mash potatoes were at best luke warm. This was very disappointing. Especially after seeing some of the reviews. Suffice to say, this outing was definitely a one star for the food and four stars for the service along with the ambiance. I hate to hurl insults, but whoever is in their kitchen has either lost their passion or they just don't care. Best part of the meal was the wedge salad which was deliscious. The manager did come talk to us and did not charge us. The experience was still disappointing. My expectation did not meet my experience at Ovation Bistro in Davenport Florida.

This lower review is solely because of the smell of the location during our dining experience around 12:30pm today. When we walked in, we were hit with a strong chemical smell. As we sat down, I kept looking around to see if I could see someone using some kind of chemical or cleaning agent and never did. The smell persisted during our meal and I did not bring it up to the server because I thought maybe it was just my imagination because I couldn't figure it out. Turns out, as we were leaving, I noticed that first watch shares a building/wall with a nail salon. What I was smelling was the acrylic (MMA) from the salon, seeping into the restaurant. It was quite strong and I'm honestly shocked that it hasn't been brought up before already.
