    The food is good, the service was really good, you can tell they were understaffed but the lady did a great job checking on us every time she walked by. The place is nice and clean god ambiance conducive to conversation. My friend ordered a chicken noodle soup and she got a big bowl (see picture) I ordered one to go and I got less than a cup (see last picture with my friend's empty bowl and my to-go container next to it. I was disappointed. My friend had told me that orders to go are always smaller, I couldn't believe my eyes. I will go back again but I won't order to go again.

    Biscuits and gravy and perfectly made over medium Fridays and crispy bacon.

    Best breakfast around. I can't always count on the biscuits and gravy in the nice crispy bacon. The cook made my eggs perfectly. And Carla, the server, is so stinking sweet. No french vanilla creamer but she brought me vanilla sweetener. She always goes above and beyond for me. And the others she seemed. The staff seem to get along great and the food is always excellent. Wheelchair accessible and clean and always fully stocked. THANKS CARLA!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!

    Uninspired to make the Christmas Eve dinner we were planning, we decided to eat out and check out the lights at Bronson Park and the luminaria in the Winchell neighborhood. But on Christmas Eve our usual haunts were closed. All of the Nonlas (Burger, et. al.) were closed. Niko's Express was closed. Chinn Chinn was packed with busloads waiting. How about a Jet's Pizza? Closed. So we resisted our desire to shoot ourselves in the heads again by going to Steak 'n Shake and went to a restaurant we hadn't been to in ten years. And, yikes, it started out badly. We walked in and stood, waiting to be seated, and three employees bickered with each other, each one trying to get the others to show us to a table. I say out loud, "You realize we're standing here?" The employee with the arm sling lost, and she showed us our table, saying as she left, "I like your bear." But our server, Lindsay, was long in efficiency and energy, particularly considering it was Christmas Eve. She took good care of us. We appreciated not having the server assigned to the neighboring booth, who spent the bulk of her time chillin' with customers and sharing, for example, how she couldn't wait to quit and start her job at Outback's, and how she was anticipating with excitement making better tips because Outback's served alcohol. A third server, clearing a nearby table, dropped a dirty napkin to the floor. The Future Outback's server walked by, looked down at the napkin, and passed it by. Lindsay picked it up. My girl ordered the shrimp dinner. I had the Shaved Ham and Swiss Melt. My girl liked her dinner a lot. She thought the shrimp were good size and tasty, and commented that the baked potato and sour cream - and the cole slaw side - were the best she'd ever eaten. My sandwich was described in the menu as "Shaved hickory-smoked ham, melted Swiss cheese and caramelized onions layered on grilled Brioche bread and garnished with deli pickles." No pickles and the bread was Texas Toast. And the sandwich was 95% bread. The amount of protein and cheese was minuscule. A rip off. My girl, midway through the meal, had to use the bathroom. She told the hostesses afterwards the bathroom was a Superfund site. As I was paying the tab, my girl checked. She said the bathroom had been properly cleaned. I suppose Bob Evans restaurants are this generation's Bill Knapps. The environment is a safe one, it doesn't serve alcohol, and the food is usually filling and forgettable.

    I don't mind giving places their redemption. Which is why here I am at bob eve and again. Mason jar of water was cracked and leaked all over the table. But a manager did come and get the jar. No napkins to clean anything though. But thank goodness for the one holding the silverware. The food was ok, it was cold, so it did sit for a minute. But it wasn't over or undercooked. Warmed it up and that was that. Bottom line. The server was wonderful and the food was ok. So it was a bearable attempt to try again.

    The food was good, although Kayla was the worst server I've ever had in my many years of life. Someone needs to be retrained.

    600 is such a cute place for a lovely meal!…read more We have been multiple times but stopped in on a recent sunny afternoon for some lunch. 600 is so light and airy, we really love the atmosphere!! We had a really great waitress, I wish I would have gotten her name! She was doing the job of hostess and waitress to multiple tables, and doing it all very well! We ordered a chicken sandwich and a salad for our lunch entrees! Both were very good and presented very well! While the food is good and quality feels high - the price is also on the high side. For a sandwich and a salad, waters to drink, we spent over $50 for our lunch! Just something to be aware of! While we had time - the experience was not fast. Something to be aware of if needing a quick lunch. The restaurant was not overly busy but the wait was a little long to receive our order. I ordered a salmon salad - the menu nor the website specify if the salmon is wild caught or farmed. I would really love to know this information - the price would be much better reflected if it were indeed wild caught. :)

    We arrived to an appetizer table without serving tongs. Someone asked the waiter with the flower…read moreclips in his hair for tongs and eventually he produced some admitting her forgot. Everyone was using their hands to pick up meats and cheese as and jam and fruit! The food was very good and the portion was really large. I am a big eater and this was much. The price was reasonable. The stairs make it difficult for people that need assistance. There is a bathroom upstairs. We had one waiter -the same one- that took the drink orders then took the food orders and took care of the payments! He had bussing help but he was inexperienced and unavailable for guest assistance. The service was horrible! It took one hour to get a cup of coffee. Orders took a long time to arrive another 40 min after coffee. Our check took another 40 min to be produced! After all that a 23% tip was automatically applied!! Wow! Too much under the circumstances. The place is nice with a nice atmosphere and clean. The bathrooms are clean although it ran out of paper. We may try it again but with a different waiter. One more thing... burritos should not be served with toast. Fries or hash browns are a better choice.

    One Well Brewing is the kind of place that makes you think, "Yeah... I could probably just live…read morehere." The kids disappeared into the games so fast I briefly considered filing a missing persons report before realizing they were just... happy. As a parent, I experienced something I hadn't felt in years: finishing an entire meal while it was still warm. I almost cried. The pizza is offensively good. My cardiologist has specifically asked me not to be tagged in any more of my Yelp reviews, but if you're reading this, Steve... mind your own business. Some relationships are worth fighting for, and mine with this pizza is one of them. The beer was fantastic. Every pint tasted like it was brewed by someone who actually enjoys making beer instead of someone trying to impress a guy named Chad who owns three flannel shirts and says things like, "I'm getting notes of pine and emotional unavailability." The place is huge, which is exactly what every parent dreams of. The kids sprinted off to the games, the dog made about 47 new friends, and for a glorious 20 minutes nobody asked me to open a juice box, settle a courtroom-level dispute over whose turn it was, or inspect a mysterious object they found on the floor. I wasn't parenting anymore. I was just a guy eating incredible pizza in public. One Well somehow found the perfect balance between brewery, family hangout, dog park, and therapy session. I walked in stressed, left full, and briefly convinced myself I could handle having more kids. Thankfully that feeling wore off before I got to the parking lot

    This is my favorite spot to go to great cider and root beer that's homemade. I like to take a…read moregrowler home with me. Bring them back for a discount. Also a decent spot for vegan food. I will say the food leaves me feeling heavy and I need a nap afterwards. no French fries or anything like that. I like the games and all the machines are still taking coins. It's a great place to go to spend that change! The bartenders are friendly and the decor is fun and casual.
