Went to this Applebee's tonight 3/01/2025. The usher came out after we stood waiting a few minutes, then said what do you want. Then asked to set at Bar Top no space but only one was taken up. Next was going to just sit at bar,told me that wasn't an option. Then I asked about a table and was told none available only booths. All sections and options were available. Seemed like they were understaffed, so we left. Last time I went to a place treating is like that we never got our food. So not waiting an hour to be told still holding on food. Stay clear until they can hire more people, and people with manners.

The restaurant was clean and staff was friendly but the waitress was not very attentive & when we asked her to split the check, she did not.
The mashed potatoes were meh, but the onion rings were awesome!!

This review is for a Door Dash I had delivered from Applebee’s on February 7, 2025. Our neighborhood Applebee’s don’t always get a fair shake but it was a Friday night and kind of late. We were hungry but waited too late to go out. We decided to give Applebee’s a try and we were going to do it with Door Dash. I ordered a burger and onion rings and my wife ordered a salad. When I pressed the payment button it said our food would be delivered within 40 minutes. I thought “no way”. Even though it’s only a few miles from our house. Well they actually beat the estimated time and delivered within 27 minutes. My burger was fixed to perfection and the onion rings were a ten. The salad was also good. Great choice for a late Friday night.

The food was very dry! I got the southwestern chicken. The rice was very dry and about a teaspoon of pico. Not enough sauce to find it on my plate I had to pay for extra. Drinks didn’t arrive until after the food and we had to ask where they were. Close this one down.

Parking: There’s was a handful of people so no excuse for the service or bad food

I went there with my date and she got the sirloin which was part of the 2 for 30 and I had the Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp which was 2 for 35. The food selection could have been better, the drink selection could have been better, and bread was basically not available except as bread sticks and it wasn't even mentioned. The food was excellent however. My waiter was great, never leaving me in need of anything. The atmosphere and furniture just seemed a little dated. All in all, while everything was great, it seemed like the time had passed for this eatery.

Very nice manager there! I forgot his name but he’s a black guy and he’s super nice because I’m a veteran and they give away a free meal to vets on Veterans Day but I forgot my paperwork when I went so I called the store and the next day he actually replaced it and gave me my free meal! Much appreciated because you don’t get good service anywhere almost anymore but he went above and beyond. Need more people like him in this world.

The food was good! Better than some of the other Applebee's I've ate at. But they was so short handed that it took forever. Only complaint
