Applebee's Grill + Bar

I'm giving 3 stars because our food was palatable. Other than that our appetizer (queso dip) that came after our meal was cold. Also, my $7.50 margarita that was filled with ice tasted as if there was no alcohol in it.

Service was the only reason we stayed. The waitresses were nice and very attentive to our needs. Despite one being training on her first day, they both displayed great competence. The food left much to be wanted with flavoring; bland brocoli and mashed potatoes.. hardly any Alfredo sauce on the pasta and a surcharge for sauce? Some of the plate of noodles was missing Alfredo sauce entirely; just buttered noodles. Also, despite visiting during their half price appetizers (the only reason we even ordered one) we were charged full price due to the combo appetizer sampler being excluded from the happy hour special... there was zero notice of this on the menu or the posters along the walls. And finally, we ordered desert trying to leave with a positive note. You can't mess up desert... right? Well, an undercooked brownie would certainly prove that theory wrong. It's a shame, Applebees used to be a decent option for a dine-in option. There was an overlaying hint of profit searching, what with limited sauce, sketchy happy hour stipulations and underseasoned sides. For 80 dollars for two people you would at least expect decent quality for the cost.

About the promotion they are having now. All you can eat for like $15.99, the problem is when you have to order something again it takes like 10 minutes to come and they send just a little bit. I ordered the rib and they sent a small piece and half was the bones, i literally took 20 seconds to eat. And then I ordered another thing and again had to wait to come. The place is nice and comfortable, but they should send more food

This place is outstanding. You don’t even know you’re at a “chain” establishment. Ralph runs an amazing restaurant and it shows by how his employees treat their customers. Shannon behind the bar is always on point, and tonight was no different. Jo-Jo is the same and always makes sure his tables are completely satisfied. In fact, not sure I’ve ever had a bad meal or bad service here. You get great value also. The burgers are phenomenal and the unlimited fries are an added plus. Always a cool vibe too.

This day the food was not on par. Ribs were dry and my wife chicken salad was pretty nondescipt. Have had better food in the past. The other problem for me is the price. Burgers are now 16.99. That is a lot for a burger. That is why I tried the ribs. Appetizers are usually pretty good but also around 15.00.
