Our service person was fantastic. The food, not so much. My husband ordered chicken Alfredo. It was dry. My steak was stringy and tough, and the potatoes tasted like they were in the warmer too long.

One of the best places to sit down and eat in Marshalltown. Their steak is great and I LOVE the garlic mashed potatoes!
Kid-friendliness: Yes, they are kid friendly and have crayons and a kid's menu for them to color.

The place looks clean but is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE, I found several pieces of hair and lint in my food, idk what the cooks are doing but it’s definitely not wearing hairnets or following health policy. Not to mention the horrible smell and wait time. As a lover of Applebees this place is completely horrid I would never recommend this location.
Dietary restrictions: The food will make you very sh!tty.

I have never reviewed a restaurant but I have to say this was a terrible experience. The restaurant was not busy. We had a group of 6. The first problem was after we placed our orders the waitress returned to tell us 3 of the items were not available. So we had 3 people scrambling to pick other things. We saw people that came in after us have their orders taken, received their food and leave while we waited. When we received our food it was not even close to warm. The steak was overdone as were the burgers and fries. Our waitress was doing her best but was visibly upset when she asked how our meal was and we did complain but told her we would just eat as we had been waiting so long. We did tip her as it was not her fault. In short, the waitress was good and the food was the worst I have ever eaten at a restaurant.

My wife and I went for a little valentine lunch a little after 12pm. Wasn't horribly busy. Got seated as soon as we got there. Ordered drinks waited til our server came back 30 min later to take our order. Then another 30 min for food to come out. At that time not a big deal. Then our appetizers came out mont sticks and pretzels burnt. I mean rock hard and I'm not even sure how to describe the pretzels as the dark shriveled and probably cooked an hour earlier that looked liked cooked sausage links. Our burgers came out 3 min later cold and burnt. This is the nicest I can be right now. When the server finally came back I asked is the apps suppose to look like that? He said no they look like they are burnt. He asked if still wanted them and I said no take them back. And please just bring the check this just not worth it. He did ask if I would like to talk to a manager but at that point my wife and I were done and just wanted to leave. It could have been just a random once incident but while waiting for our receipt I had seen 3 plates go back to the kitchen for burnt food. We have not eaten here in acouple of years and it will be definitely a couple of years before we do again.

I've looked the other way plenty of times with this Applebee's. Drove 35 mi to eat there tonight to be told cash only, had a gift card couldn't use that either. Terribly run store.
I ordered the nachos with no guacamole and no jalapenos. When I got my nachos, there was barely toppings on it. It don't have any sour cream on it too. The chips was salty and the meat looked like it was cooked too long. In the past when I ordered the nachos, I never have a problem with it until tonight. I was disappointed.

I think we got a new guy as our waiter and he seemed very frazzled. Also our main dishes came out before our appetizers.

Qasidia chicken salad was fantastic ? ? ?, friends ordered grilled chicken and veggies, all very good.
We sat at the bar,and our young bartender seemed very distracted, totally forgot my drink and kept disappearing, and another male bartender, who was attentive helped Us till she would show back up, her mind and worries were not on the customers ?
