Stopped into my "friendly neighborhood sports bar" for dinner while I watched NFL Preseason football.They DON'T show NFL Preseason Football at this location!!How can you call yourself a sports bar and not show NFL Football?I should not have been surprised, because this past Sunday I tried to go there for lunch and to watch the NASCAR race. They didn't show that either.Wonder what they consider sports?

Used to love Bob Evans when traveling but now I understand why they seem to be disappearing. Our service at this place was awful. No one came to seat us for 5 minutes and there were plenty of open tables. After seated for 10 minutes, we had 2 people come by and asked if we had been helped and then just walked away. Finally a server came and acted as if we were putting her out with ordering drinks and food immediately. Food was ok or this rating would be a 1. Another brand will soon be history if others in this chain are the same.

The young woman who took my order was very helpful and friendly, I only wish the food had lived up to her high standard. I ordered the half rack rib lunch special. Ribs with one side and a drink for $8.99 is a good price, unfortunately the ribs were no bargain. My order was tough and rubbery. The ribs had been cooked too fast. I know something about smoking ribs, since I do it frequently, and tender ribs either fall off the bone or are pulled off with a minimum of effort. These chewy ribs were still clinging desperately to life and fought me tooth and nail. I finally gave up and just ate the top meat and left the rest on the bone. I also didn't care for the sweet, thin, drippy sauce that covered the ribs. The onion rings were beer batter, not my favorite, but it's almost impossible to find flour batter rings these days. Maybe the pork is better, however I don't think I will be returning to find out.

Not bad but not spectacular. Think glorified Waffle House with regard to the type of food served. Clean with courteous service. No complaints, certainly better than fast food. I am glad you stopped to eat with us. Sorry we couldn't make a better impression on you. We strive to be a good stop for busy travelers and locals alike. Hope we can do better next time.

This was our first and last time dining at the restaurant. My wife ordered a side salad and a bacon avacodo chicken sandwich with fries. The first salad contained all wilted lettuce so she asked for a replacement. The second salad had about half wilted lettuce so she pulled out the wilted pieces and ate the rest of the salad. The sandwich was a joke. The piece of avacodo was about the size of two or three toothpicks sitting side by side. You couldn't even tell it was an avacodo. The fries were pretty good. I ordered a cup of chili and buffalo chicken salad. The chili was spicy, hot and tasted pretty good. The chicken on top of my salad was cold. The lettuce had to have been sitting around awhile as it was not fresh and crisp as you would expect. The saving grace was our server was excellent but she can't make up for poor quality food.Hey Joe, we're really sorry that we let you down with the food when you were here. Thatâs not okay with us, and weâd like to make this right. Please give our Guest Engagement Team a call at 1-800-983-4637 so we can do that. Thanks!

The best thing about this place was our server Nicholas who was very professional and perfectly attentive. He truly deserves kudos. The food was mixed. We both had the BBQ sampler and the ribs and brisket were good but the pulled pork was drenched in too much sauce, the corn on the cob was mushy and and the loaded mashed potatoes were stone cold. Another problem was the cleanliness of the place. My seat in our booth was filthy and the floors of the restaurant were alternatively sticky and slick, perhaps from a combo of spilled beer and grease. AnAnthropologist,Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your visit with us. We are so happy to hear Nicholas took such great care of you. We're so happy you tried our BBQ LTO! We apologize if your pulled pork had too much sauce! Please feel free to ask for it on the side or without if you prefer! We apologize if the facilities were not clean. We will pass along the feedback to Management so they can address the issue. Please come and see us again! It would be our privilege to serve you!

We have always had a good steak dinner at Outback Steak. It is not the best steak Iâve had but for the price you really canât get a better steak. Tonight we had the Surf ân Turf! It was very good.Wait Staff was very knowledgable about each type of steak and was very friendly but not over bearing. We of course wii be back here again.
