Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar Restaurant Review

This frisky chain unabashedly delivers simple pleasures: thick, juicy burgers, tart (and cheap) margaritas and mammoth desserts that make your teeth ache. Applebee's strives to give everyone from families to singles something to like. You'll find generous salads like the grilled chicken Caesar and signature Oriental chicken, workmanlike fajitas and surprisingly good sandwiches. Dieters will...

Big portions of mainstream American fare, served up in a convivial, family atmosphere.

In Short
A low-key, friendly environment attracts plenty of families to this reliable chain. Kids in the big booths--often clutching free balloons and crayons--usually outnumber adults...

For this month they are doing ladies night on Wednesday. $3.00 Martinis and $4.00 Bahama mommas and margaritas. An extra added bonus is the D.J. that does trivia. I had fun and the bartender Jess...

I ordered a 6 oz. glass of wine and he brought me a 9 oz. glass. I told him I had ordered 6 and he said sorry then charged me for a 9. I feel I should have paid for what I ordered. Also my pasta was cold and tasteless and nothing was done about that either.

Not too far from the beach located in a open strip mall area. The food was the usual good for Applebee's, the waitress was friendly and the wait time was about 15-20 mins to get our order. It was not too crowded so just be prepared to wait for your food. The apertizers were good and the shrimp and chicken...

My family and I have been coming here for years. We like a few items on the menu. Service has always been slow, but tolerable. For that reason we would only stop a few times a year. I can get my Applebee's fix when I travel. Tonight service was one of the worst I have had anywhere. It took over...

Came in to the establishment around 230 and hostess wasn't on post. Waited for 5 minutes and finally she offers me a seat but leaves me no eating utensils. My sever Shay comes out and takes the time to explain the menu and what's new. I opt for the Asian salad but alert him of my food allergies and request a hold on the almonds. He fulfills this with the chef and presses the chef for acceptable...

I always find Applebees to offer good food, reasonable prices and friendly service. When in a hurry, but not up for the drive thru, Applebee's is a great choice.

Consistent Apoplebee's

Applebee's generally delivers a consistent, good experience. However, I do recall once when we lived on Long Island, we waited twenty minutes without any service, and when we left, we were thanked for our "business". A complaint to executive office got us a gift certificate and invitation to return - which we did. OK experience that time around.

We went there on a Sunday and were seated quickly. Our server was pleasant and prompt. The food was good and appealing. As a non-beef eater, I would have preferred more choices, but the chicken dish I had was good.

The absolute best Applebee's I have ever been to. The staff were pleasant and professional. Tricia was our server and the manager, Eric even stopped by to see how we were doing. Tricia needs to be fast tracked to manager. Keep up the good work.

The staff were very accommodating and attentive. Although it seemed the staff was working below full capacity everyone worked together to serve our party of four. We moved our table and the assisting staff were diligent in finding us to deliver our food. Everyone greeted us with a smile.

My husband and I went to lunch the other day and while the waitstaff and the place was clean the food just seemed overly greasey which sucked because I have a medical issue that causes me to get sick if I eat too much grease.

We got food to go and it only took us about ten minutes from when we called till when we picked up the food. When we got the food, the fries were old and cold, the bread was rock hard and the pasta tasted funny. It was very disappointing because the dine in food is normally good.

Again this restaurant is changing like most of them and it is not for the better. The quanity of food, selection of food and the price to me and my family is not worth it.
