First time at Applebees. Service was great. Very helpful deciding on dishes. We went there during the happy hour so we got 1/2 price appetizers and drinks. Food was decent but nothing special.

We didn’t feel like going far for dinner so we decided on a familiar place, Applebee’s. I had the 4 cheese honey chicken Mac and cheese and it was delicious. The chicken fingers were pretty small but I really enjoyed the flavor mix of honey, cheese and the crunchy chicken. The highlight of the night however was our waitress Lakaysa. She was on top of her game, very cheerful with a nice smile. Business was brisk so she was really moving around making sure everyone was satisfied. Overall excellent dining experience, good food and a wonderful waitress. Definitely recommend.

Awesome food and service! We visited Applebee’s every evening for 3 days. Burgers are really good, and the people working there are even better!

Applebee’s South Lake Tahoe.
I got the Oriental Chicken Salad. Tasted like fresh bagged coleslaw . The chicken was breaded cut into chunck (chicken tendars) . The Dressing was bottled. Its was a 20$ lunch that i could of bought for 6$. Shoulda coulda.
Maybe fresh cut the coleslaw next time, insteadof bagged? Offer baked chicken instead of the chicken tender crap and a better dressing!
The fried pickles were sliced and was over the top salty. Never had sliced & didn’t like it.
Second time at (A) Applebee’s don’t see myself going back anytime soon.
Plus took over 40 minutes for a table of five to get food that wasn’t a difficult order plus it wasn’t even packed.
Service was helpful when ever we saw them.
Goodtimes

I think we visited during a bad night, because service was rough. Our server was nice, but she seemed incredibly overworked. 100% not enough staff here in general. It was noticeable during arrival, seating and getting our order taken, but the mood really shifted negatively for us when our server quite literally disappeared for just over 14 minutes.
We were sitting outside, and most tables were full so she was already busy, but suddenly she was nowhere to be seen for almost 15 minutes. I could see into the place, and before she was walking around bringing out orders, seating other people, etc, but all of a sudden she was a ghost. I even heard the other tables around us questioning where she went. Unfortunately, this happened exactly as we were ready to go, and we were already waiting for about 10 minutes for her to come to our table so we could ask for the bill. She was quite busy for those 10 minutes so we were okay with waiting. But after those 10 minutes, and then her disappearing for another 15… after 25 minutes we were extremely frustrated, because we had other places we were committed to being and now we were late.
We left our table and went straight to the front to ask for our bill. The front seating desk worker was a bit startled and confused by that, but understood after we explained why we were asking. After waiting another 5 minutes at the front, the server came and she was clearly overwhelmed.
I suspect that she was either outside taking a break, or just needed time to herself for a bit because she was being overworked. Clearly the place was understaffed from the beginning of our visit, and she was likely stressed to the max. So yes, I blame the server a bit for disappearing without a word, but I also blame this location for not having enough staff available to work. I understand that people call in sick, but it was obvious that there could have easily been 4-5 more servers on staff.
Lake Tahoe is one of my favorite destinations to visit, and I’ve visited multiple times in the last few years, but as for food I will not be revisiting this location and will choose other options in the future.

I had a very disappointing experience here. I waited a long time for my order, and when it finally arrived, the steak was the smallest I’ve ever been served in my life — definitely not worth the price, and the taste was nothing special. On top of that, the broccoli that was listed with the steak in the menu was missing. The server was polite, but when I asked if a certain beer was good (I don’t remember the name), he simply replied, “I don’t know, I don’t drink.” Overall, it was a very poor experience. I will never come back.

This is hands down our favorite spot at Lake Tahoe — no exaggeration, we come here every single day whenever we’re in town. The service is always amazing, with such a warm and welcoming team. The food is consistently delicious — their Chicken Caesar Salad is one of the best we’ve ever had. And their cocktails, like the Perfect Patron Margarita and Emerald Sky Margarita, are simply incredible — definitely my go-to favorites.
The whole atmosphere is super cozy and full of Tahoe charm, with beautiful wooden decor and a giant bear at the entrance that makes it feel even more special.
We’re also truly thankful that dogs are welcome — it means so much to us to be able to bring our miniature poodle, Chanel, who’s a part of our family. She absolutely loved it too, haha!
We genuinely highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Tahoe. You’ll fall in love with it just like we did.

This was lovely! We had the 2 for $27 deal, so you could choose an appetiser and then 2 entrées. There were a few you could upgrade and pay more for, but we were happy with the basic ones. We got the spinach and artichoke dip to start and oh my goodness it exceeded every expectation I had! It was super cheesy and delicious, the tortilla chips were warm to go with the dip too which was really good. The main was a big portion so brace yourself! You can pay at the table using a self-service machine too which makes things easier.

Terrible customer service. They can easily put you in a wait list that can take you 1 hour to sit even they have table. I will never be back again.
