We typically love Applebees, but we had a terrible experience tonight. We waited at the door 20 minutes waiting to be seated. Several employees, including the hostess, walked by and refused to make eye contact let alone try and speak to us. A group of servers were talking in a corner. A couple men walked behind the bar and made drinks. Not sure if they were employees who were not working or just customers but they didn’t have on anything on identifying them as service staff. Most tables were empty but still had dishes on them. We finally took a seat at a clean table near the bar where we were ignored for another ten to fifteen minutes. My wife finally stopped the hostess as she walked by and asked if we could be served. She told us we were in the bartenders area and that we weren’t supposed to seat ourselves. We got up and left after telling the hostess she could have at least talked to us when she saw us at the hostess stand thirty minutes earlier. Another couple walked out with us, and another fifteen people were waiting to be seated. We ended up going to Buffalo Wild Wings for the first time ever. We were treated great there so the night wasn’t a complete loss.

Let me start by saying that I am a regular patron here. Came in on a Saturday at 8:30 pm with my family, excited to eat a good meal. Unfortunately, there was a single big party and a couple of people at the bar, with literally half the restaurant open, and we were told it would be a 30+ minute wait because a single party just sat down.

I have worked in food, and I can understand staffing issues. But on a Saturday night, you can’t accommodate more than 20 people? What a joke. Management needs to be looked at very closely

Sadly this location been on a steady decline for many years now. Went to special they were advertising everywhere to be told they didnt have anymore hamburger to make it. When mentioning the steak the server told us not to order it’s no good. Also said that about a chicken meal. The area we were sat in had two large groups that had left and the tables remained uncleaned during our stay. We had already ordered drinks before finding out they were either out of item or the item was not good to order. We ordered a chocolate lava cake with ice cream that took a while to get but was awesome!! Then we left. It will have to be rebuilt almost for my return. Applebee’s needs to get it together or get out of the neighborhood!!

Food great, I had a ribeye steak, perfectly cooked.
Service was slow and parts of the order never arrived, the salad, for example. They had no rice, but could have purchased some from the Food Lion next door.
Choice of on tap beers is pathetic.
Noisy group in the restaurant just kept shouting at each other because they all spoke so loud they couldn’t hear each other. So the only solution is to shout louder.

Upon being seated, we were met with our waitress yelling to another coworker about an unknown dispute. Then when she finally came to our table, right from the start the communication was very weird. She came up to our table and just stared at us, didn’t ask us anything, like she expected us to start speaking first. We then waited 30 minutes to just get our drinks while we watched the bartender waiting tables himself and messing with the tv remotes trying to change the channels. Mind you, there were maybe 6 tables in the entire restaurant. IT WAS NIT BUSY AT ALL. Then another 15 minutes for our appetizers to come out. Then, 2 minutes after she set our apps down, she brought our entrees out. This is when the food issues began. I got the Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp dinner, the chicken and onions and five shrimp were hot and the mashed potatoes right next to it on the same sizzling dish were cold and the side of green beans I got we’re also cold and mushy. My husband ordered the classic combo in which the spinach artichoke dip came out somehow bland and mostly cold even though the cheese was melted on top, make that make sense. He had ordered The bacon ranch chicken sandwich and was instead given a chicken sandwich with no ranch or bacon, just a giant glob of hot mayonnaise in the middle of the chicken, which made him sick to his stomach after eating because it was a warm mayo on top of hot chicken that we had no idea how long it had be sitting at the window. Between the wait times, the food quality, and everything else, the waitress came to us four times about 10 to 15 minutes apart and was almost standoffish. Then, when we explained to the waitress what was wrong with our food, she didn’t offer to replace the messed up food orders, she just offered to comp the over $70 bill by $20. She also told us that this was not the first time the kitchen had messed up food orders. Great to hear as a customer. We will never be back, this was a huge disappointment. Do better.

Overall this place is pretty good. The drinks are a little diluted. On this visit Chris was our server. He was ok not very attentive and often forgot some of our requests. It was busy for a Sunday evening so I’m taking that into consideration.

New visit – carry out:
So when placing a to go order please check your food before leaving. I ordered the fiesta lime chicken. It was not made the usual way with tortilla strips, pico and lime wedge all of that was missing. It was literally cheese covered chicken and rice. I also ordered the strawberry salad. As you can see in the picture there were absolutely no strawberries in it. When I called to bring it to the attention that the kitchen lacked attention to detail on this order I was placed on hold for an extended about of time. I won’t be visiting again anytime soon.

Food fine. Took forever to sit. Finally got seated. Waitress apparently was running bar too and food took forever Finally got desert. Don’t know if we will ever come back. To me, that was bad management.

It’s been a decade since I last disliked Applebee’s. So I figured let’s give it a try. Mistake. Couldn’t make it past the green soupy dip, a poor excuse for an artichoke spinach dip. It was a half sloppy filled bowl of an imitation cheese sauce. Almost like a can of Campbell’s cheese soup. Bits of spinach, one lump of cheese, and maybe a single piece of artichoke. 100% disgusting. We left after the appetizer and likely won’t be back for another 2 decades.

Just watched the management turn down a bus with 20 cheerleaders. Place was half full. WTH? Over $300 in sales turned down. When they left 3 severs continued to stand and do nothing Gotta love today’s work ethics!
