We went for lunch and it was wonderful! We ordered the shrimp and chicken over sautéed onions along with red skin mashed potatoes. It came out on a sizzling skillet! The smell alone was divine! Yum!!

Andrew is the best bartender there is, I go to Applebee’s when he is working. There’s two sets of people at this Applebee’s, 5pm crowd and the 8pm crowd. Different vibes but overall good people.

I ordered salmon and veggies. The salmon was under cooked and cold. No excuse for this at all. I told the waitress and she had me another one cooked which was done the second time. However it took a while and my husband and kids where done eating when mine got back out. I feel I should not have been charged for that meal. You are suppose to use a thermometer to check temp which it was very obvious that was not done. Applebee’s has went down hill on how they handle things. Not to mention it was not crowded and we had to wait to be seated due to the girl goofing off with another employee and didnt realize we were waiting to be seated. Do better!!!

I went to eat the other day and my server was absolutely amazing i think her name was tana. She was so easy to talk to and was amazing, props to her because it was really packed and i would have been stressed. the food was so good. The mocktail i got was perfectly made. Shoutout to the team!

Friendly waiter seated us as soon as we arrived on a Wednesday. Good food, didn’t have to wait too long and put on our table. Enjoyed pleasant and relaxing atmosphere and priced right. Highly recommend. Great selection of options available with competitively priced add-ons. Always love the delicious food here.

Server Drew, was awesome. Great server. When we ordered our food, they got it wrong. My gf is allergic to onions, and they put onions in her food after she said she was allergic, our steaks were cooked really far from what we ordered. When we sent them back, they were worse than when we sent them. Won’t be back for a while. Cooks didnt seem to know what they were doing. -2* for the cooks

We had a large group, 10 people. We were lucky enough to be seated right away the waiter was a nice young man. He got all of our drinks and food correct. The dinners all seemed to be great. We ordered a variety of plates off the menu. From salmon to ribs, steak and chicken with shrimp. Our table also had burgers and more I never heard a complaint about the food. Service was very good and the restaurant was busy because of a college football game. We would definitely like to come back for more family dinners. We let the waiter know this was a birthday dinner, so a group of workers sang happy birthday! It was so much fun……. Where we were seated was at a higher level. There was a ramp to get to that level. Very good for our visit. A member of our dinner party uses a walker so having the wheelchair ramp was great!

TL/DR: Great service, 2 of 3 meals great, burger way undercooked.
Mixed review for this one. Two of the meals we ordered were great. Mine however was not. Despite what it looked like on the outside, the inside was med rare. I had ordered med well. Could be a mix up but I was asked to verify med well. It was so noticeable that one of the people with me commented that “that is not med well.” I should have sent it back but time was critical and they were swamped.

This used to be a great place to go, but tonight has really let us down.
The plate with the steak looks great in the photo, but the portions are absurdly smaller than they ever have been. Our hand is larger than the plate full of food and it was 17.99 before tax. And the steak is exceedingly fatty.
The tacos were tasty, and the fries were fresh and crisp, however you can see that no care at all was put into plating this. The taco at the end was clearly open face and fries dumped carelessly upon them.
When we made mention to the manager we were only offered to replace the tacos, no mention made of the measly portion control on the 18 dollar plate of fatty steak. It also was told to me (a former chef) that it was not a open taco, they just ran out of room. Was this an excuse to just combine my items?
In the end the food was taken off the bill, however in the end, instead of accepting fault, blame was put on us for simply not accepting our sub quality meal at a cost not subjective to our experience.
The night manager was informed of the issue and she walked away half way when I was informing her of the issue, then she yelled at our server Kayla, not the kitchen who made the food. And now our server is upset.
This is poor management!
