The food was excellent! My gripe was with the supervisor. Our meals were served promptly, however, our waitress never came back. Apparently she had a party of 18. I certainly understand that but management should have made certain that someone else stepped up. Once explained, he 100% agreed and comped our meal. Appreciated the gesture and his humility.

I liked it, I haven't eaten at an applebees for over 25 years, I never really enjoyed what they had. We tried it and it was good. Service was slow however that could be a staffing issue. Food was server hot and edible! Would return.

Had lunch 2/25/22. The hostess was accommodating...Extremely monotone and nonchalant, but helpful nonetheless. She seated us at the table my mom wanted. The waitress seemed distracted by her phone. I ordered a specialty drink but my food came first so I canceled it. The food was hot but tasteless. I had the bourbon street chicken and shrimp and it taste like rubber. No bourbon anything and when I asked the waitress for sauce she bought me cold garlic butter. That was the first and last time she checked on our table. We waited 20 minutes after finishing our food for the check but it never came. I had to ask the hostess who was walking by to go and get my waitress who was seated across the room glued to her phone. It still took her 4 more minutes and the place was hardly busy. It just seems as if the standard for restaurants has plummeted.

Not entirely sure what we were expecting, but what we got was not great. $5 drink specials are fun in theory, except that the sugar is the only thing getting you drunk in these. Plus, they were out of gummy sharks for the shark bowl (main draw)… major negative that they didn’t communicate that upfront. Another sore point- my vegetarian friend got the dip trio as her main. But only two of the dips showed up because they were still making the guacamole. 15 minutes later still now guac… when she asked, they said it was frozen and they were trying to warm it up. Hmm. When it finally showed up, the waitress brought it with a to-go container because we were all already finished with the meal. FYI riblets DO have bones in them… don’t choke.

Considering the slow service I got there the last three times I was there, they must need help. Good luck!

Customer service is terrible they take for ever to get you seated, then they take for ever to even offer you a drink and to take you order.

I've had similar poor service from the wait staff. Refill wait time for a soft drink is rediculous. Waitress vanishes into a black hole, I think.

Horrible service waited forever for our food and when we got our food the steak was undercooked. When they took it back we waited an hour for the steak to come out but it never did we just asked for a refund so we could finally leave
