    “We are “newer” to Janesville and had never been to Bessie’s until today! Jan. 1 is my birthday and we have found it hard to find places that are open. We were thrilled to see that Bessie’s was open on New Years Day! The restaurant was booming, which is always great to see. Our server Susy V. was attentive, friendly, and she went the extra mile to make my birthday feel special. The manager even allowed me to add an item to my omlet that wasn’t even an option. Overall we were thrilled by the hospitality. The food was delicious, the Bloody Mary flight was fun, and we saw a total of 11 planes! 10/10 experience. We will be back!”

The menu is vast, so it takes a few minutes to look over all the option. After Tori made a few suggestions based on what we mentioned we were use to ordering we made our choices. Maybe 10 minutes went by and our food was delivered to the table, cooked to perfection. It really started our day off in a great way.”

After meeting Aubrey and frEddie, we were sold! Super friendly service and hometown atmosphere made our stay longer than planned. We heard about the Saturday special with the ribs, baked beans and cornbread among a long list of other pork items we did not get, at least this time. We recommended Fast Eddies to any rib lovers out there! I considered them to beat anything ribs I had at ribs feast last year. The passion for the BBQ shined through every bite I ate. Great jobs guys! We will return soon.”

Paper Towel holder that was full wouldn’t put out towels and I can blow more air out of my mouth than their Super Small hand dryer put out!!!! As for the Food, the Fish was good last night, but was given the wrong fry’s, and didn’t like drink selection on the pop machine. Now I also bought a Rueben sandwich for work today and I think it has to be the second best that I’ve ever hand in life for Corned Beef.”

The chicken was cooked okay but had no flavor, even with the melted cheese on it. And the tortilla strips had no salt or flavor and they were not crunchy. Plus I did not get any Pico! Needless to say I was disappointed. In the future I'll stick with the Oriental Chicken salad, which is great.”

    “DOESN'T RECOMMEND!! (the fact that there is no way for me to change it to "doesn't recommend is pretty concerning. You have this set up to only say thay someone does recommend?? 🤔) Today is my birthday. I've always loved Red Robin and wanted to eat there tonight with my family. I called Monday on my lunch break and they said they don't take reservations and to call back the morning of around 11am so that I can put my name down for the dinner rush for that evening. So, I call back today around 11am, like I was told and was told they can't do that. If they're full there will still be a wait and that they're not sure why someone told me to call because they're "call ahead" wait list doesn't start until about 4:30pm/5pm. She said she would just add me to that list when they start it later tonight. Then I call back to let them know that my party had gotten a little smaller, as a courtesy to them, and I was told they had no knowledge that I had ever even called!!! Three phone calls were made and no communication was passed along. Red Robin, please learn how to communicate with each other. Train your staff on your policy for your "call ahead" dinner wait list so that every employee is on board of how it works. I found somewhere else to go to that GUAREENTED no wait for us. I highly suggest you use your down time when you're not busy to get better organized. Also, when I told Jessica, the manager, that it's fine and we would just find somewhere else to go, she simply replied with, "that's fine and have a great night." She expected me to know the names of all the people I talked to. Umm, shouldn't you know my name and party information since I've called three times? Won't be back anytime soon 😡 (Janesville, WI location)”
