“We were visiting from out of town and looking for a great breakfast spot on our way out of town the last morning. Wow did we get lucky finding this place. We beat the Sunday rush so sat right down and the service was wonderful. Food was amazing and everyone was happy. We had pancakes, biscuits and gravy, ham steak (gigantic - split this), Country Breakfast and Pancake Sandwich! Everything was just excellent and we'll be back next time for sure.“

“My last experience at an Applebee's was over a year ago in Sparks Nevada and it was poor. So it's been a while and what a pleasant surprise, today it was perfect. I needed dinner and this restaurant was close to my location so I ordered online with my phone for Curbside to go. I arrived for my pick up and our server immediately cane out to greet me. The food came out right on time, it was hot, prepared perfectly and 100% complete. The manager even poked her head in and said and asked if I needed anything. Wow what a difference. We ordered the Burbone chicken and shrimp along with the Riblet platter. Thank you to both our server, manager and cooks.“

“USUALLLY THEY ARE ON POINT. BUT, NOT FRIDAY NIGHT! I KNOW THEY WERE BUSY BUT, MY MOTHER (IT WAS HER 78TH BDAY) AND I BOTH ORDERED THE COWBOY RIBEYE. BOTH REQUESTED MEDIUM. NOW, IT THE PAST, MEDIUM ALWAYS CAME A LITTLE BROWN AROUND THE EDGES AWITH A WARM PINK CENTER. NOT THIS NIGHT. I STUCK MY FORM IN IT AND IT WAS STILL MOOING!!! I USUALLY DON'T MIND IF IT'S MORE RARE IN THE CENTER OF THE STEAK BECAUSE I CAN NEVER FINISH A WHOLE STEAK SO HAVING IT ALMOST RARE MEANS WHEN I REHEAT IT, IT WILL STILL BW TENDER AND JUICY! I DIDN'T SEND IT BACK AND I COULDN'T EAT IT BUT I WAS OK! I HAS A CEASER SALAD, BREAD, AND MY LOADED POTATOE. THE STEAK CAME HOME WITH ME. I CUT HALF THAT NIGHT AND REHEATED IT IN THE AIR FRYER AND HAD THE REST YESTERDAY MORNING FOR BREAKFAST WITH EGGS AND HASHBROWNS! TALK ABOUT GOOD! YES, EVEN THOUGH THE STEAK WAS RARER THAT I CARE FOR, IT WAS JUST RIGHT LATER! I STILL SAY 5 STAR! IT TAKES A SPECIAL TALENT TO UNDERCOOK SOMETHING AND IT STILL TASTE REALLY GOOD LATER! LOL“

“Took our neighbors for their 40th anniversary. Even though they’ve lived in the valley for multiple decades, they had never been there (which is what I had hoped so as to surprise them). Took us newbies (less than 3 years) to introduce them to one of the valley’s hidden gems. They were captivated and very impressed and appreciative of their dining experience at this lovely setting. Each of us had a different entree and everyone was super pleased with their choice. Our guest has named Melange her new favorite restaurant.“
