Awful service. Just went in for drinks and appetizers. Drinks were ok. Can’t speak about the appetizers because we never received them. Was the server with blond hair. Long fake eyelashes and braces. She was awful tried to say the kitchen was backed up when two other couples sat after us had already received there drinks and they’re food. Don’t waste your time here. We will never return.

I’m tired of giving this place a chance. All staff hide in the back. The host is busy with seating people, to go orders letting others know there’s people ready to be served but it shouldn’t take 30 minutes to get drinks. There are so many things wrong with this Applebees but honestly their #1 problem is staff. Either there aren’t enough people working there or there’s no one there to make the employees do their job. I can excuse a few things like dirty bathrooms, and a long wait time to be seated but when it’s 15 minutes to be seated and 30 to get a soda that’s where I draw the line. Food wise isn’t bad but when I ask for a steak to be medium rare and it comes to me burnt? criminal. I can’t with this place. Try anywhere else.

Had appetizer platter was good. Ducked though cuz we came for happy hour prices and sat waiting a seat forever even though there was no other people there. When someone did finally come, they apologized, but wouldn’t honor the prices even though it was their fault. Food is great… service sucked.

Usually come here at least 2 to 3 times a week. Honestly its hit or miss! Went last week had a lady ….idk maybe in her early 50s serve us. This was during ik past happy hour start time…she took at least longer then 10 mins to greet us. Then from there…. service ended up being so bad we ended up having the manager serve us. Then couple nights later we went and Mich was our server but also the bartender at the time. He was very discombobulated and all over the place good Lord if he would have just wrote our order down he probably would have gotten it right!! Or God knows??? Maybe he wouldn’t??? That kid is all over the place. I can’t believe hes actually a bartender in that restaurant. Then last night we went and MJ was our bartender. At first the vibe was kind of off, but as she started to read us a bit it switched up quick. She was very kind and very social. Seems like shes a good kid working hard just tryna get by! The drinks were honestly not that good but I dont think it was her. Just the mixture of the drink was off. Price was acceptable for the buzz lol. The food is also hit or miss with this location…. I think it honestly depends on the cook. Most of the time it’s obviously the servers fault for leaving it to long under the lamp. Overall if you go on the right day with the right service its ok. Most of the time this place is just a last resort. They could do much better! The atmosphere is definitely crappy 70% of the time. But hey shout out to MJ! Shes a cool kid! Management could definitely step it up a bit too!

Waitress only came by 2 times , we all ordered there happy hour half off appetizers. Would have been about 50 75.00 total. The manager came out , they didn’t have any won ton tacos so they were gonna give us free appetizers. But there were none we wanted so we went from 75.00 total to 127.00 total. They discounted 6.00 off taxes . They really sacked. And this was happy hour . I know 5 of us wernt happy .they really need to stock plenty of the things they offer on there menus.

Always my favorite! The spinach and artichoke dip is my go-to. So good! Ordered the Chicken Parm. Everything was great! Carside to go was very convenient and I love that it’s offered. Definitely recommend!

The bartender Mitchell was great! He made our visit really fun and my wife and enjoyed his service. Hopefully next time we bust Applebees In Porterville we will have the same bartender

The service was not that great. The waitresses were nice but the wait time for our meal was a little long. Also I got the bourbon chicken and shrimp. My friend also got they same and both skillets were greasy. I tried separating onto a separate plate but I was getting sick from eating it and was unable to finish it. He was able to finish it but he also did not enjoy how greasy it was.
