Terribly underwhelming. Whatever happened to walking into a restaurant and the workers being enthusiastic and welcoming? My family and I felt like we were chores. I get it, you're at work and it's a job to you. But it's called the HOSPITALITY business for a reason. If you don't like it, find another job. There were maybe 4 or 5 other tables in the whole establishment but for some reason our waitress couldn't find the time to refill our waters or clear the empty appetizer plates...read full review
So my wife and I normally come to this location for our date nights. We showed up tonight in hopes to enjoy some hot apps and margaritas like we have any other time. After hearing that the bartender had called out and the bar was closed, we were a little bummed out. The waiter we had offered to make us our drinks and we were excited only to hear that the manager did NOT appreciate that we wanted drinks.

Applebee's Grill + Bar in Stafford provides a welcoming environment with ample parking and a family-friendly setting. The decor includes pictures of Quantico Marine Base and the Iwo Jima monument, creating a memorable dining experience. Customers often enjoy the food, especially the bacon cheeseburger, which is highly recommended. The restaurant offers dependable comfort food, with many praising the lunch specials for their quality and flavor. The juicy hamburger is cooked just right, tender and flavorful, served on a toasted bun with fresh lettuce, tomato, pickles, and tangy sauce, making it one of the best burgers at a casual chain. The chicken sandwiches, especially the crispy version, are also popular—golden brown outside and juicy inside, with the right amount of spice and crunch. Service quality varies; some staff are quick, attentive, and friendly, while others may be less engaged. Recently, service at the bar has been praised for being nice and efficient, with good drinks and friendly discussion. The restaurant is accessible for wheelchair users, and many families visit, with children enjoying their meals. However, the interior could use an update, as it appears run down and grimy in places, especially in the bar area with carpet that adds a dull feel. Parking is generally available, but the floors can sometimes feel unclean, which has been a common concern among visitors. Food quality remains good, but some guests mention occasional problems with incorrect or missing items in takeout orders, possibly due to rushed staff. Overall, the food is highly regarded, and the staff's efforts to create a pleasant experience are appreciated, even when service can be inconsistent.
