Have never been to Bob Evans, and went about a week ago. I ordered fish with sides of hash, fresh fruit, and banana nut bread. The fish was pretty tasty. One fillet was a bit soggy inside, but still tasted great. The banana nut bread was amazing! The hash was good with ketchup on top. I didn't quite love the apples in the fruit, but that's not really to the restaurants discredit. Our server was very nice, but the one downside of this location is the wait. We got there at the end of lunch time, and it took around an hour to get our food after we ordered it. The people next to us had the same problem. It just seemed like we were forgotten about at times. Just make sure that if you eat here you have some time to really sit down and eat. The food is good, so that's the big plus! read more

I had a terrible experience today at the Maysville/Meijer drive location. Our waitress, Ashley, was outstanding. She was doing as much as she possibly could. However, the rest of the staff did as much as they had to and then stood behind the counter and talked. There were five tables with dishes just sitting and nobody taking them back to the kitchen or cleaning the tables. The cooks were also standing and talking, so everyone's food was very slow and late. One customer ended up leaving while waiting for his food. Another family waited 45 minutes. I couldn't stand looking at the dirty tables anymore, so I got up and took the dishes back to the kitchen myself. I've worked in restaurants before, so this was nothing new to me. When I started to put the dishes down, I noticed there was also a pile of dirty dishes on the line. Not only were they not cleaning off the tables, they weren't doing the dishes that were already back there. They continued to let me do this until they got the hint and started doing the dishes themselves. A lady asked me if I worked here and told me I can't come back because it's a safety hazard. I said it's also a health hazard to leave the dining room dirty and not have the dishes done. The staff, besides Ashley, started yelling at me in front of the dining room. They told me they weren't picking up the dishes because it wasn't their section. I told them the dining room was a mess and they weren't doing anything, so they needed to help their coworker. One lady told me she couldn't do it because she was too busy folding children's menus. Later, we could all hear them fighting amongst themselves. They weren't even in the back - they were in front of everyone. Ashley finally said "I'm done. I'm walking out. I can't work here anymore." I went around to the back to talk to her. She said she's been working there longer than anyone else. I gave her a recommendation of somewhere else to work. We've noticed this Bob Evans has a high turnover rate. We'll see waitresses a few times, then never again. I was told the manager's name is Crystal. There was no manager on duty during this time. We've been going to this location for years, but after seeing the way they acted today and treated the only person who was slammed and actually working, we are done. When a customer has to get up and do your job, you're not even an employee at that point and you might as well not even be there. The two ladies who were "working" with her that day should be fired. It wouldn't have made a difference. read more

Lunch Monday Started with a side salad. Excellent, Chicken breast grilled with a side of green beans. Chicken sort of rubber like. Green beans fairly good. Service was excellent. read more

I go to this restaurant at least once a month to meet a friend. We need to start going somewhere else. The quality of the food is very inconsistent. Today's omelet was awful. It was just a cooked couple of eggs with frozen spinach, fresh mushrooms and feta cheese. Usually the spinach is fresh. It was not fluffy and couldn't really be considered an omelet. I also ordered sourdough toast. It was burned so i asked for it to be remade. She brought another order and it also was pretty dark. I'm not picky either and usually cut restaurants some slack but not this time. My breakfast was gross. The service was mediocre-I think the waitress was new. She was slow but efficient. The place was clean and not sticky. They need to get consistent cooks. I will go elsewhere next time. read more

To be fair have not been back in years. I know this is a popular chain in the Midwest, have not been in the are for a few years. Being a chain business I would think it probably much the same read more

If I could give less than 1 star I would. Ordered Rise and Shine breakfast with eggs over medium, crispy hash browns and sausage links. Took 25 minutes to get our food and when it arrived the eggs were super runny. Sent it back. Redid it and got my food within 5 minutes. Still runny, blonde hash browns, and slimy cold sausage. Refused the food and anything else. Didn't trust the kitchen after that and honestly was afraid of what might happen to my food if I ordered something else. Waitress was very apologetic but no manager or supervisor came to ask what happened. DO NOT RECOMMEND under any circumstances. STAY AWAY! read more

We went here a week ago Saturday for a late lunch with our two teenage daughters. I used to love bob evans so much, even worked at the Decatur location when it was open. This place felt dirty and worn down. The server was a nice younger gal. Refills were slow, but I think she was working by herself and her manager was helping. The food was underwhelming as well. My daughter had two sunny side up eggs with undercooked, slimy whites. My cranberry pecan chicken salad was some lettuce on a plate with chicken nuggets and pecans. Boo. Biscuits were stale. Maybe pancakes are the safe bet here, because my other daughter got them and they looked wonderful. The absolute thing that put the nail in the coffin for me was the horrific state of the women's restroom. So filthy, even the ceiling looked bad in there. Overall, I was extremely disappointed by the food and the cleanliness, but the service was fine. read more

Came in early on a sunday. Not busy at all. It was myself, hubby, and our 1 year old. We were seated without a high chair after asking for one. The manager had to force the hostess to bring it over. Waitress took our drink order and then food orders for 3 tables who sat down after us. Annoying but whatever. Not sure if it was the fact that my hubby is black and our baby is mixed but every other table was greeted with a smile and we were greeted with attitude and treated like garbage. Never got a refill on drinks but I definitely had a water with a dead fly in it. The manager did discount our bill but I will not be returning. read more

Ate here on Sunday, March 20. Got the honey butter chicken and biscuit breakfast. Got food poisoning. Threw up multiple times that day after eating. Will not return. Is it really that hard to take proper care of your food to not get customers sick? read more

First time to this Bob Evans. Had breakfast. Took awhile to get served. Got the generic "hi honey, whatcha havin". I got greasy bacon, hash browns under cooked (asked for extra crispy) and when she asked if I wanted jelly with my bread I said "please and some ketchup for the hash browns" she said no problem. Problem was, she never came back and delivered my check 15 minutes later. Don't waste your time and money at this one. There is a Cracker Barrel near by. read more

Received email of apologies and action to have a gift card mailed to me. However, no future actions have come, along with no gift card. This is the customer service you get: charge you for items, but not guve you the full items that you ordered and keep your money. read more

This has been the worst visit to any restaurant They are super slow without apologies. We waited over 25 mins for food after waiting 15 mins to get water or for our order to be taken. There's managers and other staff. Just really bad service. read more

The slowest service I could get and the food was dried out and I ordered a steak rare and it was like shoe leather. I couldn't be more dissatisfied and disappointed with this location I've never had this problem at any other location. read more

Meijer Drive. We waited 10 minutes, no greeting, anything. We got up and left. I understand restaurants are short on staff but this is ridiculous. The couple at the table behind us said "Good for you!" They had been waiting for their breakfast a long time. read more

Ordered the meatloaf. Half of it was burnt and all of it was dry. So much so, that I didn't eat all of it (luckily I had gravy from the potatoes to put on it). The two stars were given because the sides were decent. I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Bob Evans - Meatloaf - American Near Me - Fort Wayne, Indiana

I am sorry I even gave this place a one star. We went here for a friend's birthday. The place was busy. Every one seemed stressed. The food was absolutely inadequate. Most of the meals were cooked poorly and I ordered a dish where all of the ingredients were not available. The management was disrespectful to customers as well as staff. The manager actually allowed a table of customers to berate an employee over their service experience. This I found to be absolutely a failure on the managers part. I would not recommend this location to anyone ever! read more

Wow. First time eating at Bob Evans since the pandemic. It has really went down hill. Received my order and got the main course with non of the sides. Had to ask for each one. The waitress was very polite and seemes new and did not pick up on the missing items. Now for the positive. The food was good and the waitress was very polite. read more

The service was slow and also bad. They never took away our menus or empty dishes. The server never checked on us between taking our orders, delivering them, and bringing the check and seemed distracted. The food itself was good. read more

never been to a Bob Evans before. tonight my wife and I decided to go for a family dinner. imagine my shock when we walk into a place with so much advertising only to stand at the kiosk for 10min and not even be greeted. No "we will be right with you", no "one moment please". they just looked at us and walked past. now also bare in mind that this location was borderline empty. not busy at all. such a poor first impression. I do not know if I will even bother trying again. read more

Our server was awful couldn't even get us food but was back stuffing her face while tables around us were getting their food and we were here well before them we have been waiting an hour for our food it took 20 minutes to even be able to place our order because she was nowhere to be found. Not to mention the lack of motivation we came in at 6 and it's 746 and still haven't got our food read more

Very poor service. Only saw 2 waitresses for the whole lunch service. Son liked his French toast, but kinda hard to screw that up. I ordered chicken tenders and green beans, needless to say it took 40 min to get our food and we had to rush through his fr toast to he could make it to school. Last time we're eating here. read more

I have been to this location 3 times and that was all it took to say never again! The food was not ever right when we ordered it and the service was slow an the waitress kept acting like she deserved a tip! They closed the best location in town off of Coliseum Blvd and left this crappy one open! read more

Terrible. I'm not one to give many bad reviews but we went here after church on a Sunday. It wasn't too extremely busy. My girlfriend and I got the pot roast meal with unlimited side of bread,soup, and dessert. The soup was good. The waitress seemed like she had a problem with giving us more bread. Bc 2 rolls isn't much for 2 people. The pot roast was the worst. It was pure liquified. I then got the apple pie for dessert. It was good. My girlfriend got the mint chocolate pie. She didn't like it. I ate it. It was poor. Meanwhile, while eating all I could hear is the employees complaining about their job while cleaning tables. read more

Great food and the price is right. Look out if they are super busy you can expect a considerable wait. /the food is always fresh and the Coffee great. Breakfast is real good and lunch is dynamite and dinner is excellent. read more

See all

Just got home from walking out of this location. I'll have you know list last night I tipped 30% at another restaurant because I know they are all stressed during this time. Arrived 12:45 pm, seated 1:15. Ordered breakfast before 1:30. Waitress was nice. No food by 1:45. She said it will only be a minute. She brought bread. I heard her call to the kitchen for our food. Other tables around us who were seated and ordered after us received their food and we're almost finished. At about 2 pm I heard her call, "You need to make 61 right now." I went up to the counter and asked for our food. The waitress and manager both told me there are 20 minute ticket times and it's being made now. 2:10 pm no food. We put on our coats and told them why we were leaving. The manager only repeated that food was coming out in order of when they went in. I told her then our ticket must have been missed and not put in when we ordered. She almost started arguing with me. She apologized for the 20 minute ticket times. Never apologized for our experience, didn't offer any type of coupon, nothing. As we were walking out I heard either the manager or say loudly, "Anybody want French toast?" Very rude and unprofessional. I will never go back to this location and it's the closest to my house. There are many other choices in the area. Doesn't the customer deserve more respect? This store needs new management badly. read more

I'm typically a big supporter of Bob Evans. Normally not disappointed. I called in and ordered 2 of the roast beef dinners to go. I won't have to try this Bob Evans again, even though staying 2 weeks not a mile from the place. read more

Where do I start. My granddaughter spilled an entire glass of pop on the table. Well somehow it never got cleaned up. But they brought napkins over for me to clean it up. The real bad part of it was a manager brought out the food to us and saw the mess on the table. I ordered the meatloaf and it was cold. I will never be back. read more

Food was good. Eggs were nice. They have terkey sausage wich is delishus. waitress was nice and gave me lots of cofee. Dont got grits wich made me mad. The country gravy look like sum old milk but it taste good on chiken fried stake. read more

Salads were good. Server Beth was pleasant and professional. The good stops there. Staff was clustered behind the counters yapping away loudly--and the manager was right there. One woman was so loud and obnoxious behind the counter that I could hear the fact that she's almost 30 and looks great for her age. Very, very poorly run restaurant. read more

Worst service we have ever had. Took the waitress 15 before she acknowledged us at the table. We only had soup and salad and it took the waitress another 20 min before we got our food She asked us if we needed anything else ...it's clear that our drinks were empty and she had to ask. She needs to find another job. And they need to hire managers that care because there was no one in sight to complain too. Bob Evans has gone down hill for sure read more

I have been to this locations numerous times. The service and food are hit and miss. If the restaurant is busy then don't count on your food being out for a while and the attitudes of the staff are not good. When it's not so busy the staff and food are great!! I've learned now that if the parking lot is busy, the restaurant is busy and not to go in. read more

I usually visit this location once every 6 weeks or so and service is usually good. Not today though. We visited on a Saturday morning around 8:30am. The carpeting had garbage left on it and waitresses and bus people continued to ignore it instead of cleaning it up. Our waitress was young and seemed new. For a restaurant that has a gluten free menu and is pretty knowledgeable about communicating such needs with the cooks, this waitress didn't act like she had a clue (which made me nervous). She also didn't revisit our table to bring us our meals or see if we needed refills on our coffee as she should have. In fact, we rarely saw her. Bus lady cleaned the table next to us and pushed the garbage on the table (debris of food) right on the floor making it even dirtier. When manager was out visiting tables I got his attention and point these things out to him. He made excuses that he just "arrived" to the restaurant and was catching up. So from 7:00am to 8:30am there is no manager on duty? Come on now. He then asked a young employee to clean up the carpet. She brought a broom out and then realized that wasn't going to work on carpeting. She seriously doesn't pay attention that there is carpet on the floor? She then swept about 2/3 of the mess but left the rest and the manager never came back to inspect that she did an adequate job of cleaning up (boy I'd hate to imagine how these employees live in their own homes!). Manager said he'd get us a refill on our coffees but took him awhile to do it. Never saw him speak to our waitress. I seriously think the staff at this location are not getting properly trained on how to do their jobs. And my hashbrowns were cold. I doubt I will go back. The food is priced to high and the service is now not very good. Super disappointed. read more

Complete waste of time and money. Slow service even though it was not busy and there was staff standing around , wrong drink, no one came by to our table for nearly half an hour after drink order so we couldn't get it replaced. Could hear staff complaining while we ate. They did not bus the tables near us for almost an hour. Half the cheese on my grilled sandwich was solidifying on the plate and I had to tear my sandwich apart to fix it. Given to us by the assistant manager so clearly they don't care about quality or presentation. Honestly this was my first time at any Bob Evans and I am incredibly disappointed. This location will need a lot of help before I'm willing to go back or before I will recommend it to anyone. read more

Horrible horrible service! The restaurant was NOT busy we ordered 2 steak burgers they were cold never got our fries to go with the hamburgers until we were done eating! Daughter never got her bread until we were ready to leave and I asked for it! Had to ask for refills... won't go back they need to get a new cook and wait staff read more

I can't say anything about the food because we never got any food. I ordered the turkey dinner. After a forty minute wait, I was told that they were out of Turkey. I ordered chicken. Forty minutes later I ask about my order and the waiter said he was sorry and he would see that he would make sure we got it soon. Ten minutes later I told him we were leaving. He apologized and said that they told him they couldn't get to our order. We left hungry. read more

Ordered eggs, toast, hash browns, bacon and a slice of French Toast. They have a cook who knows nothing about cooking. The eggs looked like they were scrambled with rust, the hash browns were cold and barely cooked or browned. I couldn't have toast because they had no white bread. The bacon was from a very old pig. The French toast was okay. I generally like Bob Evans but this was awful and they seem to be going downhill. Three tables left while I was there but only one was cleaned when I left. Not going to go there again. I did tell the manager that he needed to get rid of the cook. He needs a new line of work, cooking definitely isn't in him. read more

Was getting tires installed next door, went over for dinner. Service was slow, manager offered to get me a refill on drink then never did, waitress brought rolls, said she was going to get my soup, then disappeared, brought soup with meal. Also wearing low scoop t shirt that showed more than I wanted to see. This is supposed to be a family restaurant. Not a good experience. read more
