"Not worth the wait any more.I don't know what happened to this place. I've been going here for 30 years, but the service has plummeted drastically in the past 5 years. They always took a little longer than your average drive-through, but these days you might as well go inside a restaurant, sit down, and order. You'll get your food faster than you will going through Big John's drive-through. They have a sign up (probably because so many people are complaining) saying that they're not a franchise, cook food to order, etc. However, 10 years ago, you could be through the drive-through with your food in 5 minutes if they weren't busy. Now, you could pull up to a totally empty drive-through and you'll still be waiting 20 minutes. So I guess the same food takes 15 minutes longer to make than it used to......and the portions are sketchy. Your Super Steak might be overflowing the bun one time, and barely fill it the next......and the cashiers act like they'd rather be anywhere else, which may be true since I can't imagine the management has gotten better while the service has gotten so much worse.Food is still decent though, and their prices didn't skyrocket post-Covid like most other places."

My dad brought home 3 veggie quesadillas. They were so delicious! Vegetarian options: So good! That vegetable quesadilla today was fantastic

My order was wrong, and the cashier wasn't listening when we said it 3 times. We had a time crunch, so I just said whatever I'll eat it. I'm not a big fan so far. Every time I've gotten their food, it is just so so.

I recently had my first visit to a Big John location, and I wish I had tried it sooner! The subs and sides are fresh and absolutely delicious. The staff at the counter were friendly and welcoming, and my order was prepared quickly. There's a cozy dining area, along with outdoor seating options as well. View menu

Not sure why restaurants insist on yucky canned mushrooms. It would be nice if this location offered French fries, but there might be a chain stipulation. The drive-thru window is covered so you can't see into the kitchen. This is an unfussy good place for a cheap ham and cheese sandwich and bag of chips. Employees are very friendly. Club sub is served cold unless requested hot :

As an employee here, I want to mention that we cook everything to order, so it may take some time, especially for larger orders. We also have an older speaker that tends to pick up every little sound, which is why we often ask for confirmation on certain things. I've had the pleasure of working with fantastic people who genuinely care about our customers. I hope that the wait is worth it for you! If it isn't, I sincerely apologize and I'll do my best to improve during your next visit.

"Well deserved the 5 star .it was my wife's first time trying cajun food.I will humbly admit I am a chef by trade and well versed in the culinary arts with plenty room to grow with an unending knowledge with food out there..this place is amazing.I dint expect it to be so great.It was the totality of what it offered.First I called to inquire and to make sure they were open and if any there were any restrictions .The staff member i spoke to on the phone was very pleasant and professional.when we got there the place looked packed.we were quickly seated and loved we sat.Lulas was pleasant and it made us feel great being there. The staff was organized and confident. You guys have a great team.we ordered the fries appetizer to split and a salad for my wife to state.the fries and salad came out so fast we could not believe it. I told myself oh no the fries can't be right...oh boy was I wrong.The fries were perfect..HOT ,CRISP, THE CAJUN SEASONING WAS JUST PERFECT. Usually salads don't get much attention when prepared, but the salad was perfect ,,the mix greens were crisp and fresh, cold and beautifully presented appealingly to the eye.We decided to stay safe in ordering for my wife's sake so ordering thereill fried chicken dish that is reward winning and so well deserved. Chicken was very flavorful, hot and crisp.The greanbeans were to die for. The mashed potatoes could have been hot and creamier, but the garlic flavor profile was balanced perfectly. Good job.We tried the beignet for deserved and they were wonderful. Last but not least the service was amazing . Ms.Reilly was professional, attentive, positive and a great communicator. You get 1000 stars"

"The first thing we realized is that they seem to be trying too hard to appear upscale, using fancy sauces and elaborate dish names. However, they attempt to offer too varied a menu, which results in a lack of quality; they can't seem to get the beef or seafood right. They're like a "jack of all trades, master of none." They really should focus on perfecting their dishes. I ordered a NY strip steak that was incredibly tough, despite being cooked to medium-rare as requested. My wife had lobster bisque that tasted overwhelmingly fishy, which is definitely not how it's supposed to taste. We also ordered a molten lava cake, which came with ice cream. It could have been delightful, but instead of chocolate sauce, they used raspberry sauce that wasn't mentioned on the menu. For nearly $10, it was a disappointing dessert. Coming from Toledo, we're used to having a wide range of quality dining options. This place wouldn't survive against the competition we have at home. They are fortunate to be located in a small town with little competition, which likely keeps the locals returning. Clearly, their taste buds have adapted to subpar quality. Our meal cost $106, and my wife remarked that her KFC lunch was better after she couldn’t even finish her dish. Typically, we expect complimentary bread to be served before the meal, but that wasn't the case here. We won't be returning the next time we visit my sister's family. Never again.
