ABSOLUTELY THE BEST BLOODY MARY I'VE EVER HAD! MIXOLOGIST FRANCISCO HAD HIS VERY OWN TWIST ON THE DRINK; EVEN THE PRESENTATION WAS GORGEOUS --AND VERY UNIQUE. I'M NOT MUCH INTO ALCOHOL but it was a special occasion; I was in The Valley for my 50th CUHS Class Reunion, so I WENT FOR IT AT LUNCH THE NEXT DAY! I already called his manager and Francisco will be receiving a nice card from me in the mail! Try it! Tell 'em Cindy sent you!Parking: No trouble finding a space!

The menu has multiple items to choose from. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and the quality was alright but nothing special. Service was standard and the burger arrived as ordered and in a reasonable amount of time. The entry area of this business has an slight odor which needs to be fixed. On each visit the odor is still there.

Arrived March 5, 2024, 12:00 PM. Very few people in restaurant, should have been a sign to go some place else! We were seated right away and server was very good. We ordered our meal and waited about 25 minutes before it came to our table. Yes it was lunch time, but there was only 5 other couples and 2 of those came in after we were seated. So, I ordered a chicken sandwich with fries. Fries were barely warm and the sandwich was soggy…. The huge amount of chopped lettuce was still wet when I took the sandwich apart. The breaded deep fried chicken was tender and hot. I pulled it out of the soggy bun and ate it along with a couple fries.My wife’s Cesar salad was chopped in small pieces and was still wet. Cesar Dressing had too much vinegar in it for our tasting. Server replaced it with blue cheese. As we were waiting for server to come back to table so we could ask for the bill, a helper came by and collected our plates and silverware. We asked him for the bill. Server showed up several minutes later with the bill and dropped it on the table and left.My advise is to find a different restaurant.

We went to Apple Bees for lunch at the food was very salty and the dishes our meal was served on were dirty. The plates looked like they were possibly just quickly rinsed and food was plated. We could literally use our finger nail to scrape the leftover food of the outside and rim of the plate yuk!

I know I should probably try some of the other dishes on the menu, but the Won Ton Tacos are my go-to. I just have to have them. Can't stop, won't stop. I always experience great service, and the restaurant was clean and inviting. Plenty of parking.

Kid-friendliness: My kids are special needs so they get pretty loud and rowdy and the staff here is always super friendly and don't ever treat my kids like anything but rockstarsWheelchair accessibility: Lots of room for my husband's chair to get in and out throughout the establishment

The pastas are very tasty. The problem is that I ordered a 6 ounce Steak and they brought me something very very small. I don't think the Steak was even 4 ounces. The Steak was exaggeratedly small and when I made the observation to the waitress she told me that that was the size. and that if I wanted I could order a larger one but it was clearly much less than 6 ounces

Applebee's has very good food but the portions are small for the price. This particular location has a foul smell of propane or rotten eggs both inside and outside the restaurant. Service was

Didn't smell very good inside. Menu we're not clean... Food is what you expect from a chain like this one good but not more. Service was kind and fast even though we ask the drinks without ice and go plenty of it in our drinks. Hard to kill habits I guess ;)
