My clients and I chose to meet here to discuss some mundane details surrounding a contract. I was very pleased with the service and pricing considering inflation, it was a good bang for our buck. I’d rather start using this as a meeting place instead...of McDonalds ever again. Shoutout to Lydia for being an awesome waitress. Although McD’s is across the parking lot, I hope they drive business away from that dump. Easily 8.5-9 / 10.More

While I can't speak to the rest of the menu, I will tell you don't order the seniors grilled chicken, mashed potatoes and broccoli. The chicken is a frozen compressed breast which has the taste and texture of a boiled erasure, the broccoli was so...overcooked it was mushy, and the mashed potatoes were full of chunks of potato. I asked for some butter and when it arrived it looked like it had been taken from someone else's table. The server was pleasant, the service was quick but the food was terrible.More

The food here was very good. Decent sized portions, standard Applebee’s fare. My wife’s steak was overcooked; they made another for her and double checked it was cooked right.

It’s been a while since I dined in at Applebees. I was disturbed by how loud the music was. I couldn’t carry on a conversation across the table. I don’t know why they need music so loud other than perhaps the establishment would like for...you to eat and leave.More

Had a burger which had to be sent back 2 times because it wasn’t cooked properly and when it came out for a 3rd time it was just as bad as before.also the bartender Niki that works during the day was rude won’t go there...again luckily McDonald’s is next door.attention Applbee managers when you’re bartender makes a remark maybe I should go somewhere else and you’re restaurant is almost empty you might wanna have your bartender clean bathrooms instead of dealing with the public.More

Tried the new drink specials and had to send it back, way to sweet and sour. Kids meals left the kids hungry for more as the portions were small. my southwest chicken bowl was not good. Little flavor and putting hot rise on lettuce is...never a good idea.More

Cant go wrong with Apple Bee's. however this particular one, the staff was not friendly, very rude. Our waiter took my credit card that was for my meal. The other people in our party was paying separately. Which the waiter was told several times this...information. However he charged everybody's meals to my credit card and then refused to fix the problem.More

I ordered the crunchy shrimp with fries and the mac & cheese, along with a mango smoothie. The smoothie was fantastic, the shrimp was good. What fries you got were okay. Mac and cheese was passable. Waitress took quite a while getting our order, and...the place wasn't even crowded. She did apologize though. The problem was with my husband's steak. He thought it was bad, as in ROTTEN MEAT. I tasted it and thought it tasted like liver. Ugh..just totally unacceptable. We were in a hurry so did not replace it. Oh, also, the coleslaw was unrecognizable! Never have we had such bad coleslaw!!! How does one mess that up? Prices are on the high side, desserts are small for the price. The waitress did apologize, but we won't be returning.More

Great food, always made to perfection, accommodating for special orders, helpful staff, but the TVs are always set to the sports that I wouldn't watch as apposed to choices.

We ate there for dinner and had enough left overs for the next day's dinner also. The staff was friendly. Only complaint is that we paid to play the games and we kept getting kicked out for Applebee ads - that was frustrating because we...were playing Trivia.More

Went to Applebees with my family and the service was slightly above average. I ordered the 6 ounce sirloin medium well and I received it well done. I ordered a lemonade and it was watered down too much so the taste of the lemon was...totally lost. I expressed my observation to the server. Otherwise the meal was acceptable. The server was very polite and attentive.More
