“stopped by on a whim as I drove down west valley highway and I was very pleased with the service and food! ordered lumpia, crispy pork belly combo and a brown sugar boba and I was blown away! the crispy pork was beyond good! came with a Mac salad some diced veggies and a wonderfully flavored rice with green onion. the lumpia was freshly made and the boba complimented everything. 10/10 would recommend“

“I can’t say enough nice thing about this place to describe how amazing it is. Felt like home upon walking in. Staff was so good, attentive, friendly, and sweet. Food was so good. Wanted to try everything. Good vibes. Definitely coming back to try some lunch. Also adopting “Tie-dye Tuesday”.“

“Our server, James in the bar, is wonderful! Highly recommend the Puyallup location. So fun!“

“Best breakfast I think I ever had“

“Call me old-Fashioned, but this is exactly what I picture in my mind when I think of going out for breakfast. I'm stuck in the 70s, and like it that way. Huge plates loaded with delicious food, that comes out fast and hot, and a Bloody Mary while you wait (for a table, lol)“

“Absolutely wonderful place! The food is amazing and very high quality ingredients are used. I especially love their shrimp and grits, and the Wagyu steak. The service is also so friendly and welcoming. The whole lodge is beautifully decorated, and will fit all your needs. Overall this is a great place and worth the membership!“

“I have been to many Applebees restaurants between the Olympia and Seattle area and I have never felt that the food and environment was better than this one.

The food at this location almost tastes like it is a completely different restaurant inside of an Applebees building. It actually tastes more authentic then the other locations I’ve been to, especially the Alfredo!

Riley has been my server many times and she is fantastic! She’s always friendly and always making sure everyone is taken care of. The Bonney Lake location is also the cleanest environment out of most of the chain restaurants I’ve been to. I will be coming back to this location only from now on!“

“Great food, awesome service and confortable dining!“

“Had 🤩 Fun & Played Games ,won Tickets , Bowled, had Breakfast & Family Time!!!“

“Unique pour your own. Relax atmosphere.“

“The food is great. Large portions. Well worth the price. If you are looking for really good food, Anita's America Tacos is the place to go. She is new and she doesn't have set hours yet but the plan is 11am to 7pm. Especially during the fair.?“

“Best breakfast in the US. Possibly the world. Wonderful Corned beef Hash and Train wreck combo.“

“Fast service and excellent food, Philly Cheese Steak way Better than Jersey Mike's. Friendly service. I would of never known it was their if our dryer didn't break down, laundromat next door“

“At 3.9 you guys are crazy this is best in Town fresh and affordable great flavor. The portions are plentiful. Can't miss best part is they are open 24 hrs to get your fix no matter what time of day
The 5 rolled tacos Supreme or the Carne Asada fries. Only place in Town where you can get Pezole abd Menudo any day of the week. Come get some! Trust me you may have to wait a little because its made fresh but worth the wait!“

“Food was excellent. Homey vibes. Super large portions.“

“Attentive, very personable staff despite being short staffed! We ordered breakfast, which came out quickly and piping hot. Eggs Benedict and Taco omelet were great! Great local spot to support. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I don't know. I feel like Applebee's gets a bad rap. But, especially with this location, I've never been let down. The food is good, always made well, and the consistency of quality is top notch. Also, with food prices soaring, Applebee's is somehow cheaper than fast food now. I really like Applebee's.

We always sit at the bar, and nearly always have the same bartender. She is amazing!“

“It was an amazing experience when I went with my mom, dad, and little brother. It was a very positive atmosphere and the staff was very kind and helpful seeing as they would check in with me and my family to see how things were, ask if everything was okay, etc. All with a positive attitude and timely manner! I recommend this Denny’s as it is very kid-friendly, has good timely service, and is very positive all around!“

“Delicious food, great happy hour and such a nice server“

“This is my favorite restaurant at this mall. Arwa is the owner and she always have a great smile. She is great and she makes me laugh every time I come here. Her food is 100% clean and fresh. I love the food here. I suggest everyone to come here if you haven’t had it!!“

“I was there to day and a man went in to the women's bathroom with a bunch of kids in there and I called him out of the bathroom and the manger and security protected him and said I was in the wrong and that he could us the bathroom. there was a family bathroom he could have used. this dave in buster is messed up in it's believe and anyone who supports this is messed up to. there was a women who took her son in to the family bathroom and he was five. this is how it should be. no MAN SHOULDN'T GO IN TO THE GIRLS BATHROOM PERIOD. SO I WILL NEVER GO TO THIS DAVE AND BUSTER AGAIN.“

“Wally’s Drive-In has amazing food, shakes and ice cream! It has a drive in environment for a unique experience! The location is prefect for families. It is off the main road for busy days on the go! When you have time to eat and relax enjoy the playground located behind Wally’s!“

“Great place to watch the games.“

“Price can't be beat. I love the $1.50 Hot Dog and drink. I get the hot dog (without the bun for gluten free) and the ice cream. For my drink I get root beer and make my own root beer float. Where else can you get dinner and dessert for under $5? My frugal side loves this.

Dietary restrictions: Hot dog without the bun can be gluten free (be careful with cross contamination potential).“

“love love love this place, please come check it out if ever in auburn!!!!!!“

“I would like to thank Jaime the bartender for his excellent service at the bar! His fast and efficient and does a great job during the busy time (i.e. happy hour). Thanks for being our go to bartender! And also Suzie is a great bartender during the days!“

“This is a great sports bar/restaurant. The breakfast sandwich is delicious; however, they don't open until 10:30. I'm a fan of the reuben, as well. Their chips and salsa are the best around, serving fresh, warm chips and spicy salsa. And the salads are tasty, too. Don't be discouraged if the parking lot looks full: there is a large lot for additional parking in back.“

“Kristy made our experience unforgettable. The food was great and she was just wonderful! It was a great night!!“

“We came in there on Tuesday night I ordered the crab and prawn Tower salad and I have to tell you was absolutely delicious and I was amazed at how big it actually was I would order this over and over thank you very much enjoyed my meal“

“the best cooks and waitresses ever!! they have served our large family with patience and love for years. thank you. ❤️“

“Wonderful experience yesterday taking my dad who lived in NOLA for 6 years. He loved the crayfish etoufee. The rest of table was pleased with real blackened chicken salad, blackened catfish and rice, and kids burger. Best fries I've had in a long time.“

“Started out as a new date night spot for us Pre-Covid and haven’t stopped going at least a few times a month for date night, bingo and trivia ever since! Love the cider selection! Shelby and Michael are the best 👍 🫶🏻“

“Sitting in my all time favorite place in Washington State. Sharing a Chicken Salad sandwich and chips with Hubby. As usual, this Bistro offers the best in atmospheres. Good service, friendly staff and always clean, even when busy. But most of all it is the feeling of being treated the same as if I was a regular customer. I live in Eastern Oregon and don’t get to eat here as often as I would like. I promise you will not be disappointed by giving this warm, friendly FRESH FOOD serving family friendly, lively place a go. Great coffees, drinks and food served by great people. Love this place.“

“great local spot, went, will go again“

“Alexis is a great waitress the menu was good“

“I have a Applebees near me, but instead I drive over 30 minutes to this location each time I want some Applebees, The energy of the team at federal way is unmatched! I’m not sure how she spells her name but I’ll do my best.. The hostess Anaya is so sweet and she immediately greets you with a warm, welcoming smile as soon as you walk in and has no problem helping with any questions you may have! Carlos our server was super busy and still managed to accommodate to everyone’s needs, get drinks and food out quickly and was positive with a big smile the entire visit! Did not sit in the bar but we did order a drink! I think the bartenders name was Jen she was amazing! Jen got our drinks out super quick even with the bar full, the drinks were heavenly she definitely knows what she’s doing! I spoke to two of the managers on shift as they were going from table to table to check on guests. Jerry and Michelle were wonderful and you see them on the floor whether it’s the front of house or back they are always staying busy and helping everyone. I would like to shout out the entire team and store! Every visit is an amazing experience!“

“Food was delicious and so fresh! The service was great! Just love this farm to table experience. It made for a great date night. My husband and I look forward to coming back and telling others.“

“The past two times visits to this location they’ve struggled to find the appropriate ratio of sauce to cheese. Cheese slip will occur here. It’s unfortunate my experience the past two times was lack luster. I used to come here quite often and looked forward to my most recent visits, but now I’m left with the feeling of having been better off.

As for their mixed drinks… second to none.

Lastly, waitress assistance could improve, I’ve noticed a trend of people waiting exuberantly long to receive their checks.

Overall, I’d say this place is worth the visit, I’ll give the place grace and say my most recent visits have been “off days”.“
