I have not eaten at an Applebee’s in a long time -just hasn’t been on my radar- and I’m not sure why..now that I’ve eaten at on: found friendly service, which is important that people are friendly , service was quick, and then the food is good. Obviously, I’ve ordered some appetizers and small items like a burger, but it was really good.. so need to explore the rest of the menu, but there was a lot to choose from. I saw it was packed and I waited and then, despite being one of the only few people there I wasn’t ignored, which is nice sometimes when it’s after the rush-hour, it’s almost like they forget customers come in later so appreciate the attention and the good food!

The burgers are amazing! The Classic Combo, Caesar Salad, Fiesta Lime Chicken are also great choices! The desert OMG Go for Triple Chocolate Meltdown if you accept the sugar rush challenge, or Brownie Bite for a little piece of sweet to treat your stomach
Update: had the Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp today, and this is now my new favorite dish here

Store smells like moldy water and nasty grease, mens restroom was disgusting, our servers pants are torn open at the crotch!!! Store is not busy and tables are dirty with food splattered on the glass and walls!!!! Food was good though and though his pants were torn the server was polite and kind.

Had lunch there because my 88 year old father likes 1 of their dishes. I ordered a bourbon style chicken and shrimp w/garlic mashed potatoes. Chicken was hard on 1 side, I’m thinking it was precooked and set aside on the grill. You can image what that’s like. Onions and mushrooms were also done a head. Super heated skillet. Throw this collection of culinary catastrophe on top and run it out to me, the customer. I ate it because Mom & Dad were happy with their meals. Neither of them can smell or taste for the record. Server was personable and did her job well. She is the reason for the rating from me. Overall, for the cost per person, I feel we didn’t get our monies worth and the blame falls on the kitchen and whomever is in charge of the hot food. Sister ordered a Asian style salad and said it was perfect. Take a chance if you want, but check the roster first. My opinion

This was my first time going to any Applebee’s. They seated us fast and the waiter was very nice. Jelisa was her name and she was great. It was a bit busy so they forgot out appetizer till after we got our other food but it did make it to the table. It was queso n corn chips but in my opinion it had too much onion flavor for a white cheese dip. Everything else we had was delicious.
I’d go back for sure. It was clean and had good seating. They had multiple T.Vs fir sports viewing if you’re in to that. A bar in the center.
I want to add that they did offer an extra beer at no cost so that made up for the not so great queso n chips.
2nd time was better than the first time. The food was amazing.

Stopped at this place a number of times and was happy with their food and service. But now they serve their soup in small paper cups and only fill it half full. They did the same with the Artichoke dip and it cooled down so fast we had to leave half of it.

Ordered Garlic Parm wings. They came out DRY with no sauce. I ask the waitress if I can get some sauce and shredded parmesan. Like, how it usually comes, and she brings out a HUGE cup of shredded parmesan first. Then I ask for sauce. She brings it out ICE COLD. I don’t think it should’ve been brought out of the kitchen DRY. No manager in sight. We probably won’t be back

Service was a bit slow which was odd for lunch time. What food we ordered was filling and satisfying. We ended up taking leftovers home. A bit pricey, but overall we were pleased with our dining experience.

We stopped because we were in town for a concert. I was sad they had just ran out of ribs… however the steak was awesome

No stars on my food.
I ordered a prime rib dipper and not only was the meat burnt to a char but there was a piece of plastic, like a bread tie, that had been cooked along with the meat on the sandwich.
