“Im writing this hoping the other group that sat in the back dining room last night sees this. I do not understand how you could act like that towards your server despite the fact all of you are grown adults. We heard you saying how if she didn’t give you any discounts you were going to find something to complain about and weren’t going to tip her, right after she walked away. She gave you, as well as, us great service. We even heard her trying to fix an issue with one of the dishes. How are you going to complain about the food and still take the rest home with you? And still expect a discount? You were all too old to be acting like that. Cristina if you happen to see this, you did great. I just wanted you to know that there was nothing more that you could have done to make those people happy. They seemed set to complain to get discounts since the moment they got there.“

“Food was incredible. We had New York 12 oz steak. I had mashed potatoes, but when I asked for gravy, all they had was the white country gravy they use for country fried Steak. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS.
Along with the Flatliners Martinis everything was perfect. Thank you Palace for a wonderful meal.
If you go here, you have to try the Brown Sugar Old Fashioned Bourbon Cocktail. It's absolutely delicious. I have rediscovered great American Bourbon once again. Went home and bought a bottle of Four Roses Single Barrel Aged Bourbon. Wonderful 😊. They use Evan Williams American Bourbon here. It's very tasty 🤤. Here again on 3/16/25, just finished Steak and eggs, fries and plenty of Flatliners and Brown Sugar Old Fashioned.
The bartender here knows his stuff about fine Bourbon. (SEAN, Shaun in English)He also knew that sugar doesn't dissolve in alcohol. If you ever find a bar that uses sugar cubes or raw granulated sugar in drinks, they don't know what they are doing. 😊😁 Good job Palace Craft cocktails. Everything was excellent 👍. GREAT job Sean. A fine Bourbon expert, and an all around great bartender. This guy knows his drinks. 👍✊. Here again on 4/27/25 for brunch. Had Steak and eggs, once again delicious.
Once again Sean was our server and Mixologist. Excellent service and drinks. This guy is now our favorite Mixologist. He would make John Taffer proud.(Bar Rescue) But they don't need him.
Palace Kitchen has it going on. If you like great food and great drinks served quick and delicious, this is your place.“

“Our lunch meeting today was fabulous! Great service & great food. Thank you!“

“today I had the special. potroast melt with tots“

“It's a very nice little place to eat. They have both the people that run it are very friendly. They have a meetings and stuff back in the back for the city council. And stuff, when they meet, but it is very quaint, very nice and they have good breakfast and good lunch. And I go in there and I have for breakfast. I have a linguisa omelet and you sit down there. They know what I like to drink. They bring it to the table. They know me because I've been going in there. But it's a good place you ever come through Exeter, stop at the east-west and eat breakfast or lunch. They're closed on Mondays. That's the only day they're closed. Like, I say, the couple that run, it are very friendly, very nice.“

“Good food and good size portions“

“This was my first experience at a Rainbow Drive-In. I ordered the Bacon Double Cheeseburger meal. There were a few people in line before me, but my order was ready in about 5 minutes. I really enjoyed the overall taste and texture. It was not greasy, or bad in any way. It was delicious, and a nice break from the usual corporate cow patties. The kitchen was running smoothly, efficiently, while cooking food that was on point. The cashier had smiles for days, but I figured it's because she doesn't know me... The inside dining area was tidy, the restroom was cleanish, AND they had soap in the soap dispenser. I will definitely be back, and I would recommend this establishment in Farmersville, CA
Enjoy...“

“Petes Place is wonderful. Great, fresh, tasty food & wonderful service!!“

“I come here often mostly for the twisters and shakes because no one makes them like Foster Freeze in Porterville, so Im more than willing to drive across town just to get a few large cups of rocky road, and strawberry cheesecake twisters. My kids and I are also fans of the dipped cones. I've do order food from time to time when hunger strikes, but I mostly come for the frozen treats. They never disappoint.“

“I went to dennys the other day and our server Amy was really great!! Made sure everything was okayyy!!“

“The servers were so nice!“

“excellent service and waitress teresa ,great food, very clean“

“Half done with my breakfast and almost forgot to take a pic! Covered & smothered hash browns, eggs, bacon and coffee. Perfection. It's in a new strip mall, so I'm betting this was a relo, but it was filled with locals so there's a following. Keep my coffee filled and then leave me alone. Excellent service, nice job RJ.“

“The food was good. Line took a little longer but if was rish hour and honestly we'll worth it. Got an avocado burger and chili cheese fries. Sucks they dont allow you to upgrade your fries from your combo. Fries were a bit salty but everything else was great. Even the price! Paid 20 bucks for meals for two and even fed my kid.“

“Eselente los desayunos y el café“

“From the moment I stepped into Applebee’s, I was embraced by a warm, welcoming atmosphere that felt like coming home to family. The hospitality was nothing short of extraordinary—every team member wore a genuine smile that radiated kindness, care, and pride in their work. The service wasn’t just attentive; it was heartfelt, thoughtful, and full of joy, with staff going far beyond expectations to make every guest feel seen, appreciated, and cared for.

Now let’s talk about the food—an unforgettable sensory experience. The chicken fingers were golden perfection: crispy on the outside with a tender, juicy center that practically melted in the mouth. But it was the spicy dipping sauce that stole the show. A deep amber hue, flecked with herbs and glowing with chili warmth, it offered a layered kick of sweetness, tang, and heat that complemented the chicken’s savor beautifully.

The coleslaw was a cool, crunchy contrast—freshly shredded cabbage and carrots tossed in a creamy, peppery dressing with just a hint of vinegar to brighten each bite. Every forkful was a refreshing burst of flavor and texture, making it the perfect balance to the bold main dish.

The drinks were just as impressive. I ordered an ice-cold sweet tea, and it arrived shimmering with condensation, its golden-brown hue sparkling in the light. Crisp, clean, and just sweet enough, it was the perfect refresher—inviting and thirst-quenching with every sip.

Dessert was an elegant finale. I opted for the warm butter pecan blondie, served sizzling on a skillet, topped with cool vanilla ice cream and drizzled in a buttery caramel glaze. The aroma alone was intoxicating. The blondie’s chewy, nutty richness, combined with the cold creaminess of the ice cream and the luxurious sauce, created a texture and flavor contrast that was utterly indulgent.

Every course—each side dish, every sauce, every detail—was crafted with care. The menu reflects a true love for bold flavor, satisfying comfort, and creative expression. From the perfectly seasoned fries to the tangy BBQ glaze options, to the way even a simple Caesar salad arrives crisp and generously dressed, it’s clear that quality and joy are built into every dish.

Dining at Applebee’s was more than just a meal—it was a celebration. A celebration of good food, of warmhearted service, and of the human connections that make going out to eat something memorable. I left full, happy, and already eager to return. Hats off to the incredible Applebee’s family—thank you for such a wonderful experience!“
