This time, we had the grilled chicken dinner with garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli. It was very good (and low calorie too). The service was friendly and great. The prices are quite reasonable. I highly recommend.

Normally I gave very good experience at Applebee's. This time however my server was not good at all . We didn't get any refills until we asked for them ( but our cups were empty ) . I was ordering food to go and I told her I'd let her know when to put it on , however she had them put it on anyways , so my food to go was cold when it got home.

The restaurant is fine , the server was not. .

I think our server was new because she forgot about us a few times, it was not busy on a late Friday night. We ordered drinks and apps and dessert. It took quite a while for the drinks to come then we waited for the food. Then we waited for the bill and finally waited for the change. What should have been 30 mins tops, as our apps were to go, turned into and hour plus.
The new Espresso martini is soooo good I hope they keep it awhile!

Tonight, I ordered two dinners and want to keep this brief because I'm ready to eat. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger well done. When I got home and sat down to eat it, I found it was pink. I took it back for a replacement. When I returned home again to enjoy my burger, I noticed there was no bacon on it. This is incredibly frustrating. I called the restaurant to report the issue, but no one is issuing a refund for the missing bacon. All I want is what I paid for— no free sandwich and no remakes, just exactly what I ordered. This isn't the first time I've had problems with my burger; I always specify well done, and it's usually pink. Most of the time, I accept it, but today I am firm about my preference. I want my burger cooked to my specifications as I ordered. DAMN

I normally eat in. Today I ordered online, but for some reason the order was not received. My card was charged and immediately reversed. I then called to speak with the manager. He took my order and was ready very fast! Food: the Shrimp Fettuccine was over the top delicious. The Chicken Parm was excellent. I love shrimp so requested extra. There was so much, I had a hearty lunch the next day. The combination of spices were perfect. Breadsticks at Applebees is beyond comparison. Most places have sticks that cannot be reheated and taste good. Applebees Breadsticks are even better the day after. Take extra home, you won’t regret it. I found the Manager to be very attentive and polite. There is plenty of parking available. Including handicap. My top of the list go-to for my shrimp pasta craving.

A Delightful Date Night at Applebee’s – Okemos

Last night, I took my fiancée to the Applebee’s in Okemos for a casual date night, and I must say — it was a truly pleasant experience that exceeded our expectations.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine warmth and seated promptly, despite it being a fairly busy evening. The atmosphere was inviting and comfortable — the kind of relaxed yet lively ambiance that makes conversation easy and enjoyable.

Our server was attentive without being intrusive, striking the perfect balance of professionalism and friendliness. She made excellent recommendations and ensured we were never wanting for refills or condiments. Small details like that go a long way toward making a guest feel valued.

The food was quite good — everything arrived hot, well-prepared, and nicely presented. My entrée was flavorful and satisfying, and my fiancée was equally pleased with hers. Even the appetizers and drinks felt thoughtfully prepared rather than rushed, which is not always the case at larger chain establishments.

We left feeling content and genuinely impressed by how enjoyable the experience was. Applebee’s in Okemos may not be haute cuisine, but it delivers exactly what it promises: a comfortable, convivial dining experience where you can enjoy good food and good company.

I would absolutely recommend this location for anyone looking for an unpretentious yet thoroughly pleasant evening out.

First time at this Applebee's. Was empty, so we were seated right away, the staff was fantastic, and the food was quick. We all got burgers and they were all cooked as ordered. Thanks 🙂
