I was staying down the street at a hotel while traveling for work. I stopped in and had the 12oz steak, mashed potatoes, and broccoli. I really didn’t expect much but that food was delicious! 10/10

Just a warning if you have the $50 gift card with the $10 bonus “gift card” they don’t see the $10 gift card as that. They see it as a “discount”. We frequent this place and usually have a good experience. We got those two gift cards for Christmas. Our bill was $57. We gave the waiter the $50 and forgot to hand him the $10 one. He came back and I handed him the $10 one. It wouldn’t go through after the main gift card and we had to use our debit card to pay the rest of the bill. No one told the person that gave us the gift cards that tidbit of information either. The manager was no help and rude. She did nothing to fix the situation. She just looked at us waiting for us to hand her our debit card to pay the rest of our bill. This is the first time I’ve never left a tip. I feel terrible but at the same time this situation was not our fault. The waiter can get his tip from the manager.

I’d also like to add my husband asked for a refill on his coke. The glass was dirty and had a piece of lettuce floating in it.

The overall experience consisted of watching 3 guys walking around talking and laughing about people in the restaurant. We literally witnessed 2 of the guys take dirty dishes off of one, place them on a nearby table and immediately seat a party of 5 at that table WITHOUT wiping the table clean. There was food throughout the restaurant on the floor from dirty tables

Only my third Applebee’s establishment. Kimmel at the bar was great and pleasant to engage with. After a long games great place to unwind.

The restaurant was very understaffed. Our waiter was running around trying to do everything. There were a lot of people who came in that were not seated and wound up leaving because they didn’t have enough waiters. The food was mediocre, the spinach dip with tortilla chips was not great. The tortilla chips tasted like they had been fried in very old oil. I asked for my hamburger to be well done and it came medium at best. It was all pink inside. I didn’t ask for a new one because it had taken so long for us to get our food. This was not a great experience. I’ve been to Applebee’s before and it’s been much better. This one just needs to hire more people.

We tried the 2 for 25 Grilled Entrees with appetizers. The food was served piping hot. The best part, was the service. 5+ stars for the team! The deal for $25 was worth the price.

Nearly Complete System Failure

I want to start by saying that dining out is expensive these days, so when we choose to spend our money at a restaurant, we expect basic competence and value for what we’re paying. Unfortunately, this visit was a disaster from start to finish.

**DRINKS (Multiple Failures):**
– Sweet tea wasn’t sweet, had to send it back
– When it returned, it was raspberry flavored (completely wrong)
– Lemonade looked and tasted like water with barely a splash of lemon
– Coke was flat

SERVICE ISSUES:
The server didn’t write down ANY part of our order despite being told things multiple times. This led to numerous mix-ups throughout the meal.

But the real problem was his attitude and lack of basic menu knowledge. When we pointed out that my wife’s fiesta lime chicken was missing the rice, he insisted it doesn’t come with rice and actually brought the menu out to prove us wrong. The menu clearly showed rice IS included. Doubling down on your ignorance instead of just checking with the kitchen is unacceptable.

Even worse: my wife ordered a loaded baked potato. The server took the order without saying anything, then brought out loaded mashed potatoes instead. When she told him he got the order wrong, he had to go back to the kitchen to check, and THEN came back to inform us they don’t even sell loaded baked potatoes. How does a server not know what’s on their own menu? This should have been mentioned when she ordered it, not after bringing out the wrong item.

APPETIZERS:
We ordered two appetizers. They came out at completely different times, and the mozzarella sticks didn’t arrive until our entrees came out, which defeats the entire purpose of an appetizer. The boneless wings appeared to be just chicken tenders dipped in Buffalo sauce.

ENTREES:
My wife and mother-in-law both ordered the same steak. My wife’s steak was actually good and properly cooked. However, my mother-in-law’s was undercooked and looked like a big chunk of beef rather than a proper steak. How do two identical orders come out so completely different?

I ordered the riblets, which weren’t even close to what they used to be. I had to scrape the meat off most of the bones with a fork. They used to be tender enough that you didn’t need utensils or have to stick them in your mouth to separate the meat. The quality has clearly gone downhill. And I only got a handful of fries. Most restaurants load you up on fries since they’re a low-cost item, but apparently not here. Makes me wonder if everything is just frozen food being heated up with portion sizes cut to save money.

BOTTOM LINE:
I understand that servers can be inexperienced or undertrained, and that’s a management issue. What I can’t accept is a server who doesn’t know the menu, argues with customers, and tries to prove them wrong only to be contradicted by the actual menu. That’s not just incompetence, that’s terrible judgment and customer service.

When you’re spending $60-80+ for three people, you expect value. We got the complete opposite. This location needs serious intervention from management or corporate.

This is probably one of the most up-to-date Applebee’s I’ve been to in a long time. Been visiting Applebee’s for over 15 years and most of them are not updated. This one was clean and the food was good. Only downside is that it did take the minute to get the food out
