Ponderosa Ripley WV review 3.3.13

Ponderosa Ripley WV review 3.3.13 Intro: greeted really nicely and seated promptly. They were fine with my wonky seating request (I’m sensitive so I have to sit away from other people) Waitress was fast getting our drinks. Order 1 (mine) 8oz sirloin + Buffet. Buffet had ham and I love ham! It was good ham as well. I also had some chicken legs and some Salisbury steak. It was good. My steak came quick too and it didn’t even need A1! Tasted really good too. After that I got a salad and It was good. My baked potato was good too and I loaded it up with cheese and bacon bits from the buffet. Order 2 (husband’s) 8oz chopped steak + Buffet. He got some various meats from the buffet and he liked them. He also really liked his baked potato and his chopped steak. Service: Vicky (I think that was her name) was very prompt and very friendly and helpful. Engaging as well. Very nice vibes as well. Very prompt with everything. We all made fun of how bi-polar the weather was and she ...

Applebee's Review for Marietta OH 8.13.12

Applebee's Review for Marietta OH 8.13.12 Intro: wait time was longer then the last couple visits to the Vienna, WV location. The place seems to be a lot more busy after the Reply Guy thing. LOL. Reply guy is awesome!!! Anyways, it was about 10 minutes which is not too bad. Stuff moved along fast. Greeted nicely and attended to not as fast as the Vienna location, however still decent. Order 1 and 2 (2 for 20 with Boneless wings and Chicken Penne for both of us) We both liked it. Adam (my husband) liked his better then the Blackened Rosemary chicken. I liked mine a lot too, however it could use a little more cheese! The boneless wings were good too, however the sweet and sour ones were way too spicy. So I tried Adam's honey BBQ ones and I normally hate hate hate BBQ anything..... well Applebee's really got something right if I really really liked mine! Extra points for that one! ;-) Service: decently prompt but not blazingly quick like last 2 visits. Place was busy an...

Applebee's review for Vienna,WV 8.01.12

Applebee's review for Vienna,WV 8.01.12 Intro: seated and taken care of very promptly by a very friendly waitress. We got seating by the bar area. Got our drinks very fast as well. Order 1 (mine): Lemon Shrimp Fettucinni. $11. it was very good and very filling I only was able to eat a third of it and it was very good. Full taste. Very easy to eat and the shrimp was big. Way bigger then olive garden. The alfredo sauce was very good and not like bob evan's sauce that tasted like the smell of elmer's school glue. Order 2 (husband's): some kinda pasta and he loved it. Service: Very prompt! We got our food within 10 minutes and it was good. She was very nice, laid back and very attentive. Very good... easy 5/5!!!

Bob Evans review SS parkersburg WV 7.30.12

Bob Evans review SS parkersburg WV 7.30.12 Intro: took a bit to get seated, but greeted nice and our waiter was nice and casual and cool. Got drinks right away and set up much faster then the Lewisburg,WV location. Wifi worked better as well and was pretty fast. Order 1 (mine): Salmon of some kind, approx $10. Very good and filling. Had great consistancy and very full taste. Came with a baked potato that also tasted much better then the lewisburg location. I'm pretty full from eating it and it was actually listed as a low-cal option so that makes it even better. Order 2 (husband's): 3 cheese burger approx $7. it was good. Not much to report. Service: Much better then the lewisburg, WV location. Very attentive and pretty friendly. Laid back and casual waiter and he was pretty smooth at operations. Not afraid and distant like the lewisburg waitress michelle was. Kept up my coffee very good. Cleared plates fast as well. His other tables seemed to be doing...

Please check those out! ;-) intro: long wait but worth it, this location has a different layout and system, it does not use the coasters that vibrate and blink, they call your name and party size on the intercom. order 1 (mine) chicken alfredo: was very good. made enough for me to have 2 meals so I had some for later for the hotel. service: Very engaging and freindly waitress and she was very prompt  and attentive as well.... extremely enthusiastic and you can tell she loved to work there.... I think her name was sherice. overall 5 stars easy!

Denny's Review for 5.14.12

Denny's review for 5.14.12 Intro: we got in quick, greeted quick, and got the exact table we wanted. Close to the bathroom since I really had to go, towards the back, and calmer. Waitress came by very quickly, got our drink orders, came back 2 mins later when we were ready, got our order very clearly and was nice to deal with. Came back 2 minutes later with my salad then came back 4 minutes later with my entree and a minute later with mom's salad.

Cheddar's Review 4.24.12

Cheddar's Review 4.24.12 Parking: This place was packed!!! we were able to find a halfway decent parking spot though. I can count the empty spaces on one hand and this parking lot is HUGE! This is actually a good sign! Means people like this place! Intro and wait time: Greeted nicely, took the pager, and sat out on the nice patio with a nice waterfall for 15 minutes to wait for the table. It was pleasant outside and I was able to pick up lowe's guest wifi from across the street. However this place only has closed wifi. The waitress was very prompt in taking the orders and getting our drinks. Even liked my kitty necklace!! Order 1: (Mine): Chicken Alfredo:it was really really good! It was nice, hot, and fresh and very creamy and easy to eat.... Texture was perfect. My mouth still wants more but my tummy says no more I've had enough! LOL. I wish my tummy was bigger for it, they gave you a lot! It was only 8 bucks too! At Olive Garden it would cost around 20! I also go...

Longhorn Steakhouse review 3.12.12

Longhorn Steakhouse review 3.12.12 Please note: I suggest you read up on my Morgantown review for this establishment to further understand the chain and the variation from one location to the other. Morgantown is my base location. Thus, all comparisons will be made based on that location, as I have 85% satisfaction rating for that location with 4 total visits. Thank you. Intro: we had to wait 5-7 minutes to be seated even though there were plenty of tables. One thing though. It allowed us to get more hungry. After that we were taken care of promptly. They were having us wait so a waitress can be assigned to our table for operations. I shall skip to the order quality: Order 1 (mine): Flo's filet. Stuffed version. Price: 19USD very good. Not as good as the Morgantown location, however it was still good. 70% consistency match. Meat was cooked to demands so far as how well done it was. Did not need A1 at all. Toppings weren't as plenty as the Morgantown location. However, t...

Review for Olive Garden 2.21.12

Review for Olive Garden 2.21.12 Please note:This will be done as an update to the other one. Order1 (mine): I got different items this time. I got the Shrimp and Crab Tortellina Romana. It was really good. It was much better then the seafood alfredo they had. Conistancy was really good and it tasted good. I got a little buzz from it LOL. It made me feel good. The sauce wasn't seperated like the other sauce the other time. Cost:16.75 Order 2 (my husband's): Chicken Vino Blanco. He liked it, no problems to report. Cost:12.50 Order 3 (my sister's): create your own platter. She pretty much liked hers too. Cost 9.95 Service: meal came out pretty fast for us to get it. Waitress was pretty prompt, but not as personal as I liked but I think the style of the place is to let you enjoy your meal with minimal interruptions. Please note: I payed for most of it with the gift card that I received from giving corp. feedback about the last experience. Our total was 47 bucks approx. ...

Ponderosa SteakHouse review for 2.3.12

Ponderosa SteakHouse review for 2.3.12 intro: we were greeted nicely and seated and taken care of quickly. Our waitress took care of us fast and was laid back and nice. The place was packed, but it didn't seem to slow the staff down much at all and we were able to be seated at a nice location away from most people due to my smell sensitivity. Our part of the restaurant was calm and quiet. Even though the place was very packed it didn't feel hectic. It was pretty calm. Buffet: my ham was really good! I ate a lot of it and it was perfect. Excellent consistency and taste. I also got some Haddock fish and it was very easy to eat and tasted nice. I also tried some chicken and it was ok, not the best but better then ryan's buffet's. Order 1 (mine) I got a sirloin and it came with the buffet.I had a baked potato and it was really good, not overcooked like last time's first one! I ordered the steak medium well and thought it would be more tender, but it was too tough ...

Texas Roadhouse review for 12.11.11

Texas Roadhouse review for 12.11.11 We walked in and were seated promptly and taken care of pretty fast. The look of the place is neat, it's dark, has lots of country type décor, it's more rowdy then Longhorn Steakhouse, and it has peanuts you can throw on the floor. The shells on the floor were a nice touch LOL. I got a portabella chicken meal and it came with 2 sides. I ordered a loaded baked potato and a salad. My salad was crisp and fresh and has eggs and cheese and ranch dressing. My loaded baked potato was really good. Came pretty loaded. The Portabella chicken was really good, but not as good as Longhorn Steakhouse. It had a decent consistancy and tasted really good. The Sauce was strong, but good. The shrooms were not as cheesey and they werent as big. My hubby had the same thing and his was good. Instead of a salad he had house fries and they were ok. Our service was decent.. not the friendliest, but adequate. Not much to report on it... she did the job. The...

Longhorn steakhouse review for 10.23.11

Longhorn steakhouse review for 10.23.11 we drove a long time (almost 2 hours from our current location) to go here.... welll we had a business trip over here and it's almost worth the drive on its own! Anyways after a long blissful trip over there (but the day was a little rough before the trip LOL) we made it here and were seated quick and we ordered some coffees me and my sister both got coffee. They didn't have enough sugar packets though so we asked for those and they gave us some and we had our coffee however we asked another time for our second cups and we didn't have enough creame that time so it was kinda funny that we asked for a lot of sugar, however it was not a problem for our wiatress! She catered to it just fine.... then we waited a bit but not too l0ng (apprx 20 minutes) for our food and we chowed down.... I ordered a portabella mushroom chicken and it tasted different... not as deep flavored as the other version but it was more zesty and spicy... kinda...
