Food was great and the server was fantastic. The store could use a general tune up with paint and a good deep clean.

Terrible boneless wings that had no sauce and they were dry and cold. Bad service too, the waitress seemed like she was annoyed by being there.

Great staff

Stopped by today at 11:45 with my family to eat but didn’t get to eat. We stood in the doorway for a good 5 minutes and nobody came to seat us. Not one employee was visible but we could hear them in the back laughing and chatting about something. Nobody ever came out so we left.

Food was really good and so were the drinks. Had no complaints

The kitchen was slow, and our server did the best she could. My son ordered an appetizer sampler as his meal and it must've been made as an appetizer because when it was brought out with rest of our food the boneless wings were dry, and the dip was cold. Our 2 bar drinks took about 10 minutes to get, but they were delivered by the bartender himself, and they were delicious.

I recently had dinner at Applebee’s, and I have to say Edward completely elevated the experience. From the moment we were seated, he made us feel welcomed and valued. His energy was magnetic super friendly, confident, and personable without being overbearing. You could instantly tell he genuinely enjoys what he does.

Edward’s attention to detail was next-level. He remembered every part of our order without writing anything down, made sure all our modifications were correct, and delivered everything quickly and smoothly, even though the restaurant was clearly busy. He checked on us at just the right times not too much, not too little and always with a smile.

What really stood out was how he went above and beyond. He took the time to recommend drink pairings and menu items without sounding pushy. When we mentioned it was a birthday, he brought out dessert with a candle and had the whole team celebrate totally unexpected and so appreciated. You can’t teach the kind of care and charisma Edward brings to the table. It’s rare.

On top of that, he was professional, patient, and fast, even while handling multiple tables around us. I watched him treat every guest with that same warmth and attention. That’s the kind of consistency that makes a huge difference.

If Applebee’s had a Hall of Fame, Edward would be in it. I hope the management knows how valuable he is because he turned a regular night out into a great memory.

Thank you, Edward we’ll definitely be back, and we’ll be asking for you by name.

My family had a great experience at this location. The food was good, the restaurant was clean and our waitress was wonderful. Crystal was our waitress, and she was kind, funny, attentive and did a great job. No drawbacks really other than we had a small wait to get our food. Would definitely eat here again.
