Last night wasn’t the type of service we’re used to from this location. The server, Janie started out by taking our drinks but when my son ordered a prickly pear iced tea, she lied and said it was only available in lemonade. My daughter then pointed to it on the menu, the waitress then said we shouldn’t order it because it doesn’t taste right. So she would stop arguing, my son changed his drink. I ordered a unsweetened tea with lemon. When we tried to order drinks for my grandkids, she walked away. After she came back with drinks, (mine had no lemon and not a lot of ice) I told her we wanted an appetizer, she said no you don’t, it’ll take a really long time. I assured her we still wanted the Ult Trio plus we wanted to order the kids meals so she would bring them out 1st. (2 pizzas w/ fries). We were seated around 7pm on a Thursday our check was time stamped 8:55pm. She later took the adult orders: 2 Brb Penne Chk/SG, B-ST Chk/Shrp, WSKY Bacon w/fries and a 3 CHZ Penne. The appetizer came about 10-15 minutes after that but no kids meals. After waiting a while longer I asked about the kids meals because the kids were getting fussy she said she’d check on it. She came back with 2 penne w/ chk and sausage meals for the adults which didn’t have any sausage on either plate. She assured me she’d be right back with the kids pizzas. She came back with the 3 CHZ penne and then my B-St CHK/SHRP which was plain, it’s supposed to be smothered in mushrooms and onions. Still no pizza. Then she came back with the WSKY burger and I had to ask a 3rd time about the kids’ food. She said something about it being more important to bring out the hot food, which umm, isn’t the pizza hot? The answer was no because she left it until last and the fries weren’t even cooked all the way. We complained to her about the food, she took pictures and said she’d talk to her manager. We never heard anything more. My daughter tried to order a takeout order several times but she kept asking her to wait then later after we paid our bill didn’t want to check on it because someone else was supposed to bring it out for us. When everything was said and done, we spent almost $200 on subpar food and had a waitress that was rude and checked out before we even finished our meal. I have to honestly say, we won’t be going back after this experience.
What made it that way was our server, Eddie (Tall, slender longish dark curly hair.)
I & my wife asked what would he recommend as far as cocktails and appetizers go. He was SPOT ON!
Pro tip: ALWAYS ask your server what they would recommend. They know what is good!
The Prickly Ever After Rita is fantastic! If you get the Vibe Drop(Don Julio Reposado) drink it separately so you don’t upset the perfect blending of the drink!
We were hungry but didn’t want to spoil our dinner with a huge appetizer, so Eddie suggested the Chicken Wonton Tacos. PERFECT! A burst of flavors, crispy fried wonton shells, Asian flavors and topped with a dollop of slaw. You get 4, which 2 ea was just enough to keep my growling stomach from chewing up the edge of the table! LOL!
I got the 12oz ribeye while my wife got the Bourbon St sirloin.
I sat surprised when I heard her say “medium WELL” because she ALWAYS orders medium RARE. You guys KNOW you don’t correct your wife in front of someone (ROFL) so I let it go. Shortly before the steaks arrived, though, I asked what made her order medium well. She looked dumbfounded and said, “I DID??” Of course it was too late to change it. She enjoyed it anyway.
MY steak had a delicious flavor and was cooked perfectly!
We asked Eddie about dessert. I got the blondie and she the triple fudge. DON’T touch the little skillet the blondie is in because it’s hot!
All told, we had a FANTASTIC meal and memory!
Sully exemplifies what great service should look like behind the bar. She made sure everyone felt comfortable, drinks were made well and promptly, and the overall atmosphere stayed upbeat and friendly. It’s clear she takes pride in what she does, and that effort shows in the experience she provides to guests.
This location remains a reliable spot for good food, good drinks, and even better service. Huge credit to Sully and the rest of the staff for consistently creating a place that feels inviting and well-run. I’ll definitely be back.
The food and drinks were good and didn’t have to wait long. I would definitely recommend this place for a great date night.
UPDATE 6-09-22 My boyfriend took me here again just to have a night out together. The waitress was very pleasant. The service, food, and drinks were all perfect. Very good quality, not a long wait at all, and great atmosphere for us to spend time together, relax, and unwind. All of this is for a reasonable price. We were both satisfied and happy upon leaving. Thank you, Applebee’s. We will return again soon, I hope.

Went to day for Easter with my twin sister, my daughter, and my nephew. It was great. Good food, drinks, and service. We shared the appetizer combo. The atmosphere was great, and the server was excellent.
Update April 23, 2024. We continue to go to this location often and always have wonderful service. The food is always good with a short wait time and the atmosphere always relaxing.
