Falls into the category with IHOP, Perkins, Eat'n Park. If you like any of those places, then you'll probably like Bob Evans. Menu items available all day and bake goods for sale in the front showcase. Upon seeing twisted cheese sticks, I knew I had to try them. Literally twisted in a corkscrew shape, they were yummy and the cheese wasn't super stringy. Not choking on cheese is always a bonus. I ordered the Strawberry Bacon Salad. Mixed greens with grilled chicken, bacon, strawberries, honey-roasted pecans, red onions (which I removed), and it comes with a warm bacon dressing. All the ingredients together are very sweet. I didn't like it that much, but it was palatable enough to finish and I was satisfied with my meal. The staff was friendly, the decor average, the food okay. I don't think I'll be craving to return, but I wouldn't mind eating here again. read more

The service was good and the food was as well, it was also very clean and spacious. The wait wasn't long and the food was out pretty fast as well. Very good for breakfast and some good pancakes! read more

Back to my fav breakfast place- variety thus suited for everyone- cashier always friendly as are the waitress- today I had the BEST veggie omelet with goat cheese, had to eat half and take remainder home along with hash browns and toast. Not greasy and the veggies were perfect with a little crunch, not soggy ( mushrooms, bell peppers, onions ....) kudos to the cook, Antwon. Thank you, everything was great. Will definitely order this again. Next time hubby will eat the other half. read more

Food was meh. Price was good. This place is freezing!!!!!! Been here twice now and both times the AC is set at 60.

Bob is back!!! Haven't been here forever it's wonderful. Meat, potatoes, green beans, salad, drink, sundae and a piece of pie to go. $16.00. I don't think you could spend more here if you tried. Sandwiches looked great too! read more

There was a little confusion going on when I came to pick up the Turkey Family feast for our Christmas dinner, but we got everything straightened out, The turkey wasn't very flavorful but most of the other sides were very good. Discovered when we started to prepare that there was no pumpkin bread as promised. Called and were told that we could come by and pick it up and thay would give us some gift certificates for our trouble. Everyone was very pleasant an had no attitude, I guess if you realize that they were absolutely SWAMPED they did a reasonably good job. Good value for the money. read more

Pretty good food. Service is good... But tables stay dirty until they seat you, so you deal with that "dirty rag" smell when you sit down, so 4 stars is pushing it, but Im in a good mood LOL! read more

Very clean and well lit. We were greeted and helped to table as soon as we walked in. The service was excellent and the food was delicious and hot. We got the 3 course dinner meals and felt the price was a very good value. They even give military discounts also. read more

Three stars because the waitress was friendly and the food used to be way better! The food now is just not as good as it once was. Our coffee was cold and we got a slice of banana nut bread that was extra small. The food was once great! Not so much anymore. Very disappointing): read more

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with this place. I have passed it multiple times but never had the desire to stop. We decided to have breakfast there today and it was wonderful! The staff were all friendly and the food was great. I was under the impression this was more like an ihop type place but I was wrong. It has a country feel with way better food that ihop. Their prices are also really reasonable and you get a ton of food. They also serve lunch and dinner which by the looks of the menu looked good as well. If you are in the area and are looking for good breakfast at a reasonable price, I definitely recommend this place. read more

We had lunch here today . The restaurant was busy as expected for a Sunday at 1230 . Our food came out relatively quickly , it was well prepared and as ordered . We were less than impressed with out server , she came to the table took our food order and drink order . She was clearly distracted . She returned with our drinks and then our food . At the time she laid down the food she also brought the check . She said she would be back with refills but never returned with the drinks or to see if everything was satisfactory . We finished our meal and left never seeing her again .! read more

Always order the Turkey Dinner with brown gravy with mash potatoes and corn with those delicious dinner rolls.The services is always pretty good and quick to refill my Sweet Tea the prices are very reasonable for a dinner for 2 is like $30 something which isn't bad!!! When leaving we always get some Banana nut bread to go!!!!! Great place to have a hot meal! read more

Wow! Ordered a Caramel Mocha, waitress says they are out of hot chocolate. This is the only thing I came in for. What is going on with this Bob Evans? Spoke to the manager a couple of weeks ago about ordering Gummy Bullfrogs. He said he would try to order on Tuesdays order. He said he would call me whether or not he could order them. I left my phone number and never heard from him. read more

I went to this Bob Evan's for breakfast this morning and ordered the steak and eggs for my meal. The steak tasted spoiled to me, so I informed my waitress that the steak smelled and tasted spoiled. She asked if I wanted another steak and I told her no, so she brought me an adjusted bill that had my drink and one egg that I supposedly ate, instead of just comping the whole bill in hopes that I would return after they tried feeding me spoiled meat. I will not be returning to this restaurant. read more

Good food for a reasonable price. Its basically a waffle house that's more upscale and a little pricier. The only reason I give it three stars instead of four is because the last time I was there I had one of the worst waitresses I have ever had and ended up waiting around an hour and a half for my food read more

We went to the restaurant right behind Steak and Shake, should just went to steak and shake. The menues at Bob Evans was limited to a senior crowd. Not very exciting to say the least. What we had was really a downer. Wife ordered Turkey lunch she got a plate full of gravy and a bunch of mashed potatoes with one little slab of so called Turkey I think. May be not. Any way what I had was not memorable so I cannot make a comment. I do remember we had a Asian immigrant as a waitress who was not too interested on what was happening, and kept walking on the unswept floor. So from now on Not going. Behind steak and shake for that quick lunch just go into steak and shake !! read more

My wife and I went into your place for lunch and got a liar for a waitress. My wife order a fried chicken value meal. The waitress change her to the the more expense fried chicken dinner. She told her about and she said she would change the price. She didn't and liar to us. When we went pay they wouldn't fix it. This the first time we have problem with Bob Evans. I wish someone would call me about this matter. My name is Richard Spranger phone 904-635-5403. Thank-you read more

We don't have one of these down in Miami, so whenever I visit up here I make sure to stop by. The food is pretty average. It's good but not fantastic. And yes, it's not fresh food. I'm almost certain everything is boxed, canned or instant except maybe for a couple of things. Not a biggie. It's not like this is food to eat every day. The banana bread and blueberry bread are the best part of the meal. The biscuits are so pretty tasty. Both times I have been this trip, the servers have been very friendly. Lots of Southern hospitality, that Miami lacks, unfortunately. read more

I was just excited that I found one here in Jacksonville, FL The people here were nice, my waiter you can tell he was the man. he had a way of doing thing and he did them right. Making sure all his guest were happy. I love Bob evens sausage so that is why i loved this place.. the girl even gave me a coupon when i bought my banana bread. I'l be back and i actually like this place over Waffle house(who never can get my eggs right NEVER) over Ihop (when they never care how hot the food is after 11pm) I kinda of want to go now.. lol read more

I ordered a Thanksgiving Meal for my sweet elderly mother to be delivered from her local Bob Evans in Jacksonville Florida. After paying for this meal. I've called and called with no responses. It's Thanksgiving day and she's about to try and drive across town to see if she can retrieve the meal on her own. It was supposed to be delivered as advertised. I understand that it's different with Covid-19, but if you're continuing to operate please have some type of customer service. Any customer service (perhaps someone or even an automated bot) to help customers that place orders online would be appreciated. I'm sure this is an awesome restaurant, with great food, however when it comes to customer service for their online patrons I think they could do better. If the restaurant reads this review, I've called the correct numbers and even the corporate office and I've gotten 0 responses. I wonder if this has happened to anyone else? read more

Tried this place after several years. Food is still good but service still thinks. You know it's bad when the waitress brings your food and check at the same time. Means you'll never see her again. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants for breakfast. The biscuits and sausage gravy are the best! In addition, the service is very good. I have also been here for dinner and it is just as good, if not better than the breakfast. They have a large menu with many different choices. I like the comfort food. I grew up in he Midwest and this place reminds me of home. read more

The service on this particular Sunday was very slow. My favorite village and had closed and therefore I redirected to the Hartley Rd. Bob Evans across the street. My friend and I were seated immediately; we were served a coffee immediately. It took our waitress 10 minutes to return to the table to take our order. 20 minutes we received our food. Another 10 minutes past before our waitress came to refill our coffees. All in all I doubt will be back. On the plus side the atmosphere is homey, familiar and reeks of great southern hospitality. If you just wanted a nice slice of pie and a cup of coffee I would definitely recommend Bob Evans at least in that case. read more

Not my first choice, but I let my daughter choose. I ordered the sunrise special, I think it was called, and it wasn't the best breakfast I've ever had. I had to send my over medium eggs back because they were well done. Is my server blind I ask. Can she not tell the difference? The ham had been cooked to death and dry. I had to ask for butter, jelly, and honey. The home fries had more than just a few crunchy potatoes in the mix. Everything was over salted including the biscuits. I have to ask WHY has Bob Evans changed their recipe on everything? The last time I was at a B E it wasn't very good. This seals the deal for me. There won't be a 3rd chance!! read more

The only word that comes mind is average. There was not anything that impressed me but definitely not the worst experience. It was about lunch time and got the country fried steak take combo. The salad and countries fried steak were good. The mashed potatoes were very dry. We got the check before I got the cookie that was part of the meal deal. The cookie I had for desert was still warm but was not quite fresh out of the oven good. The service was very friendly but not quit the fastest. The prices of the food were comparative to similar restaurants. Would I eat there if I were just in the neighborhood - yes. Would I go out of my way just to go for an especially good meal- no. read more

Bob Evan's provides a very pleasant and relaxing eating experience especially for a Sunday morning. The interior , while a national chain provides a country farmhouse environment. There is a plethora of entree options with eggs, pancakes, omelets and many combinations thereof. I went with the Farmer's Choice with two eggs, bacon and the newly added Brioche french toast. It was a hardy serving and that large serving of french toast made my day. If you get there after 9 AM on a Sunday morning there can be a wait. There is wait seating inside and outside. The staff is attentive and does not rush you to finish your meal. You have to pay at the counter. This will speed both your exit and the reuse of the table. read more

This a good solid place to eat with the family. There are no surprises on the menu as you'd expect from a mid-western farm kitchen. The food is good, solid, and priced fairly. The service has always been friendly and willing to hep us enjoy our meals. read more

Great food and awesome service! My family and I love eating here because of the family style environment. The wait staff know us by name and trip over themselves to make us happy. Best experience in Mandarin! read more

Met a friend for breakfast this morning. Have been to Bob Evans many times before (not this location) and have always had a good experience. Today I ordered the mini-sampler with an extra egg and biscuit. The waitress said the "Rise and Shine" was exactly that. It was early for me and I didn't check. My friend ordered the double meat breakfast. The food served was just okay. First, they do not have butter. They serve country crock margarine which does not melt. What's the point. I couldn't eat either of my biscuits...DRY and cold. Were they even made today? The hashbrowns (in the past, they have been AWESOME) were old and cold. They looked brown, but it was only brown on one side and should never have been served. My friend's eggs (sunny side up) were barely cooked...more uncooked than cooked. Neither of us finished....The waitress (she was friendly and always ready to give more coffee!) noticed I did not touch the biscuits, hashbrowns and left 2 sausage links. She never offered a to-go box. Finally one of the waitresses came and took the plate, saying, "I doubt you want to take it home." She was right. The bill was over $30. We both had coffee, no juice....For that meal, WAY overpriced! read more

On April 17 of this year, I decided to come to this restaurant for the first time with my mother to have a relaxing morning after a bright and early doctors appointment. Our server, whose name I unfortunately do not remember, was very polite and delightful from the start. She accommodated us well especially since I was in a wheelchair due to an accident that I suffered from a couple months ago. It wasn't until our orders were taken where things started to go downhill. Our food, which consisted of a western omelette for me and a farmer's choice breakfast with hotcakes for my mother, took about 40 minutes to arrive to our table. This was a bit irksome since the restaurant did not seem busy at all. Our server was apologizing for the wait once bringing our food, but my mother's order was still not complete as her hotcakes were still not ready. Dismissing this, we decide to go ahead and eat since we were already starving from the wait. It was till another 20 minutes my mom finally received her hotcakes after already finishing more than half her plate. To our disappointment, my mom found her hotcakes to be completely under cooked where the inside of the pancakes was gooey. This just told us that these pancakes were rushed out to us without a bother to properly make them. Once our server came back to check on us we told and showed her that my mother's pancakes were poorly made. She responded by apologizing and stating "I will go yell at the cook to make sure it doesn't happen again." This took us completely off guard and did not fix the problem whatsoever. If this is the employee protocol that Bob Evan's restaurant has for dealing with bad orders then at least allow your customers to yell at the cook for themselves since that would be more satisfying. In addition, our server came back to tell us that she successfully yelled at the cook for us... Upon receiving the check, we expressed our disappointment with our first experience dining at Bob Evan's to which our apologetic server replied "I'm sorry I will make sure your next time is much better." Lastly, as we were leaving we noticed another lady looking and approaching toward us who seemed to be the manager. She appeared to back away and just kept eyeing at us. This was disappointing since we believed she was going to formally apologize on behalf of the restaurant. She did not, and on top of that my mother and I had to leave with no help at the door. It is safe to say that we will not be coming back to this location. read more

VERY happy everytime we come here! Great food, great customer service and love that ya'll give military discounts!

I never went to Bob Evans before but I heard it was good. I ordered broasted chicken to go. When I got back to my place I found two lame pieces of boneless chicken breast. No flavor. I called to complain and all I got from a gentleman that answered was sorry ma'am and hung up. Definitely won't go back read more

Not so happy with the waiter called" Robert"on his name tag. He refused to answer any questions about the menu, just kept saying this or that comes with the package, nothing he could do to custom our order. He had no smile, maybe he was angry with someone. We finished the our order with another nice waitress. read more

Have had nothing but great service everytime we've been there. The country fried steak is on point. All in all a a nice little place to go get some southern food. read more

We went to Bob Evans to get breakfast and hour ago. We had to wait for 30 minutes before being seated and groups that came in after us got tables before we did. When we politely asked how much longer it would be, the host cut us off and said very rudely 10 more minutes (no eye contact). The chicken pot pie was pretty good though. I personally don't think it was worth the wait and poor service... read more

The manager Tara kept slamming dishes after being washed. This was done three times so loud I could not carry on a conversation with my son who I had driven 1 hour to see. This started a big argument because I told the waitress to please tell the person to stop slamming the damn dishes. When I told Tara the "pseudo manager" about this, she was not empathetic and replied unprofessionally and with an attitude, "I'm sorry but this is a business and nobody else is bothered by it." I've worked in restaurants and placing or stacking dishes is normal, but this was extremely loud to the point that I could not hear or carry on a conversation. The manger was rude and uncaring. My server was great and understood. When checking out, I was second in line yet I was the last to be serviced. Nobody seems to care anymore about doing things right, getting things right, making things right and I was very disappointed that Bob Evans would even have a manager with such poor people skills. The eggs I ordered over easy had runny egg whites. Just my worse experience at any Bob Evans I have ever been to. I left without finishing my food that I paid for. read more
