Rax Restaurants

Love Rax. So much better than Arby's. Turkey Bacon club is great with toasted bun. Curly fries and cheese sauce or bbc sauce is perfect combo

Absolutely delicious. The service was great and ghe good was delicious. I got a Roast beef sandwhich. I did not care for the potato skins. The curly fries and roastbeef was delicious.

As I was in Lancaster anyway, I decided to pick up Rax for the family dinner. They never cease to deliver, and this order was two mushroom melts, to roast beef and four of their classic barbecue baked potatoes, that's why we go to rax's anyway.

I hate to give any restaurant a low rating, but I was really disappointed during my visit.I stopped through on the way home because I hadn't eaten there in years. When I got there, (around rush hour) I wasn't sure if it was still in business because there were no cars in the parking lot and the outside of the building appeared a little faded in color (possibly from the bright sun, so they got the benefit of the doubt). I parked and looked at the windows, noticing that there weren't any advertisements. It honestly looked vacated.Mind you, I'm trying to be fair in my opinion here.I walked in and didn't see anyone in the dining area, OR behind the counter. The menu looked much smaller than the one I remembered in Florida (granted, that was back in the 80s). I didn't hear any activity and leaned on the counter to see if I could spot anyone. I didn't want to yell out, but I was praying that they weren't in the back, being robbed. lolI started hearing voices, so I figured I'd wait to see just how long it would take before someone came around the corner. That's when I saw part of a moving uniform in the corner of my eye, left of the drive-through window. I knew they had to know I was there, but I kept quiet. All-in-all, it took a good 5 minutes before someone came around and asked if they could take my order. I lost my urge to dine in and ordered my Philly Melt and Vanilla Shake to go. I didn't open the sandwich until I got out into the parking lot.I'm sorry, the shake wasn't all that exciting, as it tasted kind of bland. The Philly Melt was a HUGE disappointment. The MELT was missing!! They forgot the Swiss cheese! How do you forget something like that?I wanted to get on the road, so I kept the sandwich and ate it during my drive. The sandwich didn't taste like much either, and not because of the missing ingredient. The actual service wasn't bad, so I'm not angry with the attendant. I'm just not happy about the time it took for someone to come around and the taste of my food. I can forgive content inaccuracies, but when the food taste is suffering, the whole ordeal is a suffering experience. I'd go back and give the place a chance at redemption, but since I don't visit Lancaster often I think I'll dedicate future visits to new places and new adventures.

I love coming to Rax for lunch! I haven't seen one of these since the 90s so when I started working in Lancaster, I knew i had to get lunch here and it is now one of my staples! Rax gets pretty busy but they are fast, efficient and friendly. Only knocked a star bc they sometimes forget the butter & sour cream for my baked potatoes.

Rax Roast Beef is a little gem on Main Street in Lancaster, Ohio! I have never been disappointed ever. Fresh lettuce and tomato with a mountain of delicious roast beef on a fresh bun. The French Fries ate fresh and hot! They never make it home. So good I eat them all as fast as I can and their prices are excellent! Don't be a stranger!!

My wife and I were talking about Rax the other day, and I mentioned that there was still a location in Circleville. She was shocked to know they still existed, so I figured we would take a day and go and get some. Well, when I put them into my GPS, I noticed that there is a location even closer than the Circleville location, and that's the Lancaster location. So we headed there, and there it was. Looking exactly as I remembered as a child. We pulled up, hoping that the dining room was open, and it was. When we entered, it was like time traveling. Everything looked like it was from the 90s or even 80s. It was so cool. I tried to snap pictures without looking too silly. They are a bit pricey, but hey, you can't put a price on nostaglia. I got the Rax King and twisty fries, and it was around 10 bucks. They have Mello Yello on tap, which is so cool. The staff was friendly, and the service was pretty quick. My wife also enjoyed her food, especially the fries. Rax King 1-5=4. Fries 1-5=4.

My go to meal is the King Rax and Twisty Fries. Still the same taste as I enjoyed 35 years ago! Covid is not stopping me from enjoying it now. We drive thru, park in the lot, and empty the bag. If only they would bring back the beef stroganoff potato and the warm chocolate chip cookies! Can't wait to get back to dining in as we drive here from Colimbus.

Don't know yet we are still waiting in the drive thru line. We came down for a nice autumn hike from our 50 more Ohio hikes book. We haven't used our entertainment book very often so we decided to get some use out of it. We love Rax but the one we usually stop at on 23 south is not valid for the coupon in the Entertainment Book. So we decided to stop here since we are in Lancaster.I can say this for sure every rocks that we've stopped at is very slow in getting your food even in the drive thru line. This location is the slowest one but considering it is only one of two in the area...Columbus area. We personally like the one in Circleville better, but I do love a Rax BBC better than Arby's. So will most likely be back, don't know when but we are always going somewhere and doing something. So it is likely that we will be back within the next year.

They had no chicken or baked potatoes the employees were rude we asked for ketchup and salt and got horse radish and BBQ sauce I'm done with this rax
