Drumell is hands down the BEST Applebee’s employee I’ve ever met. The guy was explaining the apps and drinks like he designed the menu himself. He knows his stuff so well that when I found out he’s only been here about two weeks, I couldn’t believe it. I would’ve guessed two years — maybe even twenty with how smooth and confident he is.

The energy he brings is contagious. He makes you want to order everything just because of how well he describes it. Honestly, he’s wasted not being a server. If Drumell was my server, I’d be throwing money at him left and right.

Applebee’s, if you’re listening: promote this man. Drumell is the kind of employee that makes people come back again and again. 🌟

If I could give them zero stars I would. This past Saturday my wife and I contracted food poisoning from this place due to us both eating chicken. Sundays are the only days I get to spend with my wife due to our work schedules. We decided let's order a reputable take out and enjoy your food home with a good movie. Well long story short, we were both very upset by the food. I got the boneless buffalo wings (they felt squishy) I'm not a chicken guy and I was oh well maby the sauce made it softer than usual. So I ate it. Needless to say I spent my entire Sunday fighting my wife over the bathroom. She called higher ups and all they did was offer a free appetizer. Needless to say after all these years were are breaking ties and never eating from there again. That was incredibly upsetting, I mean getting sick from a well known place after spending so much money. This place has never made my steak right once in about 10 years. The only reason why we have returned is because my wife and I equally work long and tough hours and we do not want to cook when we finally get home. I am absolutely sick of this place and now I put my foot down. Never to return. First of all, I cannot eat red meat unless it's fully cooked due to health issues. This place makes absolutely no effort to accommodate an accurate order. I constantly order well done beef. They make no effort to check it. From now on I promise they have lost about 15 customers due to my friends and family frequently dining there. It still deeply upsets me that all they did was offer a free appetizer. I hope they know that they could have costed me my life due to neglect. I never thought I'd have to pursue them to auctually read the orders. Very sad. Long story short, screw applebees. Never again will I be back.

We came in on a monday so the place was not very crowded. Food was very good, our waiter was very attentive and nice, and the place itself was clean and bug-free. Very good place :)

We had a fantastic experience thanks to our wonderful server, Alex, and the amazing manager, James! Alex was incredibly helpful and delightful throughout our visit. Very attentive, warm, and made us feel truly welcome. She struck the perfect balance of friendliness and professionalism.

James was equally impressive. Assertive in the best way. He made sure everything ran smoothly and checked in to ensure we were having a great experience. It’s clear he cares about both his team and the guests.

Together, Alex and James made our visit exceptional. Huge thanks to both of them!

Bartender/ waitress was wonderful! We had the 2/$25 and the food was great. I tend to like less noise when i go out to eat, so that would be my only improvement!

We walked in and were greeted by smiley faces and motivated staff. After being sat, we were introduced by our amazing, incredible, high-spirited server Olivia O. She had drinks at our table almost instantly. The service was top tier. She then politely asked what would like for dinner and she brought out everything efficiently and hot on the plate. She was very attentive and polite towards our table. This was one of the best dining experiences we have had! Liv NEEDS a promotion!!!!💯

Service was very slow for being first through the door at lunch. The All You Can Eat Chicken Tenders were disappointing and the second plate was more sparse than the second plate. Alot of money for over fried tenders that were dry and virtually tasteless. Such a disappointment. After being there over an hour for two plates of 8 tenders total we decided to forego dessert and returning to this restaurant again. Not worth the time or money whatsoever.

We had a wonderful experience at our local Applebee’s while celebrating a belated Father’s Day with my son and my dad. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed like family. The atmosphere was warm and friendly—staff and even some regulars came by to chat, which made the evening feel extra special. Our server was attentive and kind, the food was hot and delicious, and the whole experience was exactly what we hoped for. It was the perfect spot for our little celebration. Highly recommend!
