“Stopped in with my old man friend and neighbor after helping him run some errands. The food and service was definitely fantastic, I’ll be coming back soon! But it wasn’t just about food and service. It was the cozy family feel that some of the big diners are missing. I loved the enthusiasm when talking about some of their specials, Irish eggs Benedict is my next dish to try! Thank you so much and see you soon!“

The staff was phenomenal, anything we needed they were right there to help! The food was stellar and all of our guests were talking about how they wish they could load up to go containers from the buffet! If you ever have to throw an event, do yourself the favor and check them out! The owner is the nicest guy and really just went above and beyond to help make the shower perfect! If I could give more than 5 stars I would !!“

Parking: Location was difficult to find parking and the way the parking lot is very difficult to maneuver“

“Had a great experience here last night. The food was cooked perfectly. Enjoyed some of the best baked clams I’ve ever had. The drinks looked very creative as well. The skirt steak was tender and marinated in a delicious marinade. The service was helpful but it wasn’t a rushed experience by any means. The patio is dog friendly as well. I will be back!“

“This Applebee’s is probably the nicest one I’ve ever been to!
Went as a large group for lunch, and didn’t call ahead (apologies wasn’t my idea!) but they were very accommodating and everything still came out fast.
The food was very good, and as I mentioned did not take long from order time to table. Portion sizes are also very large for the price! Looking at $10-$20 per person without drinks. (Average for our group was about $15 before drinks)
The waitress was very nice, and spent an appropriate amount of time checking on our table to refill drinks and see if we needed anything. Never felt like I had to ask for anything, and also served everyone a water which I always think is a nice touch.
Overall, great spot to grab lunch. The deals they have during the week also make it a great spot to go during a lunch break. Super sad I’m visiting as I’d love to come here again.“

“Wow wow wow. Just went there for a party, the pulled pork was crazy! Mac and cheese: insane. But the leader in the clubhouse was the beef on a Stick. Great food. Fun atmosphere. Amazing experience, I’ll be back.“
