I stopped by Applebee’s Grill + Bar recently for a laid‑back dinner, and the experience was exactly what I hoped: casual, comfortable, and with familiar food that hits the spot without needing fuss. The interior is unpretentious — warm lighting, simple décor, booths and tables that make for easy conversation. There’s a bar area if you feel like a drink, but mostly it’s a “come‑as‑you‑are” kind of vibe, good for families, friends, or just chilling solo.
I went for a burger and ribs combo, with a side of fries and maybe a casual drink on the side. The burger was juicy enough, the ribs saucy and satisfying, and the sides — fries and coleslaw — did their job without trying too hard. Nothing felt overly fancy or pretentious; it was just straightforward comfort food. Portions were decent, and I left feeling full but not overly stuffed.
Service was friendly and easygoing. The staff checked in now and then without hovering — just enough to make sure drinks stayed filled and we had what we needed. The pace was relaxed, which worked well since the place wasn’t jam‑packed, but even if it were, Applebee’s tends to lean into that “comfortable restaurant” energy rather than rushed service.
All in all, Applebee’s Grill + Bar makes for a good “safe bet.” Whether you’re out with family, grabbing dinner with friends, or just want something familiar and no‑fuss, it delivers what you expect. It doesn’t try to redefine “dining” — but sometimes, you don’t need that. You just need good comfort food and a chill evening.

We had to use plastic forks because they didn't have anything washed p I don't know why because there wasn't that many customers in there. The food was okay nothing extremely great. I server was nice probably won't go back.

My family came here today and the service was terrible at this location, I had to get up and walk to the bar to ask for a refill on our drinks and the bartender was kinda rude...I hope they can get better with there service cause I like Applebee's....

Jenny was an awesome server. Very attentive and a great personality. The lights were kind of bright. We commented on that fact and she asked her manager to turn them down. The manager obliged. The food was brought out quickly and was awesome! We will definitely stop back when we pass through town.

Had one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at Applebee’s thanks to my waitress Kennedy. She gave outstanding customer service, super attentive, made sure my food came out fast, and kept checking in to make sure I was good the whole time. Honestly the best service I’ve had at an Applebee’s in a long time. If you go, definitely ask for Kennedy!

There were several tables open, but they had us wait at the entry for some time before being seated. The salads are good. The wait staff appears to be in training. I do not recommend this location if you are in a hurry.
The host was nice, but once seated we waited 15 minutes for our server to take our order and the place was pretty much empty. I watched another server take his guest orders and check on them constantly. She input my kids orders in, but never took my order and went back to the bar to finish entertaining her coworkers. Once the appetizer came out for the kids, I had to stop her, from walking away so she could put my order in. Needless to say, she never checked on us, didn't ask if we needed refills or nothing. She pretty much entertained the bar. The other sever asked was were OK and he went to get our server as she always disappeared to the back or to the bar. 02/17/25
