I love the new Bob Evans. We've eaten a couple of hundred times at the old location on 466. I get coupons emailed and when I had one for lunch, I said let's try something different, we'll go the new one and each lunch.
I had the larger lunch size pot roast for $9.99, which comes with mashed potatoes, which are underneath, also great rolls. We went on a Friday two weeks ago and then the last two mondays and I ordered the pot roast each time. The only discrepancy was the first time they brought a side order of cole slaw, which I thought was great, the best since Red Lobster's cole claw. The next time I ordered, no cole slaw and I asked why, they said it didn't come with cole slaw. After I checked the menu they were right, so the first time they messed up in my favor.
They still have some bugs to work out. The first time there the hostesses wasn't writing down names, but we did get a table quickly and in order with our arrival. The fellow helping the hostess I had small talk with, and found out he had never been in a Bob Evans before. The second time there I believe a manager seated us, and that is when I found her later and discussed the cole slaw. She said if I get the pot roast sandwich, it comes with fries and cole slaw. I haven't quite figured out how they make a pot roast sandwich, I asked if it was open face, and they said no. She was even incorrect, cole slaw is available but for a $1 extra with the pot roast sandwich.
The third time there we had a really jolly host seat us, and we ended up buying 3 of their coffee cups for $5.99 each, they're neat looking. They're blue, green or white and have small dots so they look like old time metal cups but are actually porcelain. I mentioned to the manager that I was afraid they built too small a place but I've never waited more than 10 minutes. She said it's actually bigger than the 466 location and they turn the times very quickly so as to avoid long waits. I have to admit the waiters and waitresses are really trying their best, and it seems I have gotten at least 2 or 3 extra Diet Cokes on each visit and usually never had to ask. Part of the problem however, is the new jar type glasses seem very small. Next time I'm going to try the chopped steak with grilled onions, that's my favorite at Codys.
