Diabetics must resist their temptations when dining at Applebee's. Most of the items on Applebee's menu is either stuffed with sodium or sugar. You must be extra careful and pick low-sugar and low-sodium diet at Applebee's if you are diabetic.
Foods to Avoid at Applebee's for Diabetics:
If you are starting your meal with appetizers then make sure you skip the Classic Buffalo sauce, Honey BBQ sauce, and sweet Asian Chile sauce on your wings order. It is highly recommended to skip the appetizers if you are dining alone and instead build your appetizer keeping nutrition in check. Among the steaks, you must stay away from the Applebee's Riblets platter as well as Bourbon Street Steak at all costs. Shrimp 'N Parmesan Sirloin is also not recommended. Skip the sandwiches, wraps, and tacos as well. Desserts may be tempting but it is recommended to avoid them at Applebee's for their high sugar content. All the beverages except Iced Teas must be avoided as well to control your sugar intake.
Most of the foods served at Applebee's restaurants are high in sodium. Unless you are visiting the restaurant or dining here in the group, there are hardly any options from the main meals if you wish to keep your blood pressure in check. You can rely on a few salad options though. If lucky, you may find low-sodium ribs as well at the restaurant.
Foods to Avoid at Applebee's for High Blood Pressure
Avoid Green Goddess Wedge at Applebee's. Broccoli Cheese Soup and French Onion Soup contain over 1000mg sodium and hence must be skipped as well. Skip all the chicken dishes and seafood at Applebee's except Grilled Chicken Breast and Baked Haddock without sides respectively. You must also skip Brunch Burger, Quesadilla Burger, Triple Bacon Burger, and Whiskey Bacon Burger at Applebee's. High sodium intake can be lethal for a high blood pressure candidate. Avoid ordering foods that contain over 1000mg sodium at Applebee's, especially if you're dining alone.
Food Suggestions for High Blood Pressure at Applebee's
Well, steaks and ribs go hand in hand with cholesterol. Being their signature dish, it will be a challenge to find low-calorie, healthy food for those concerned with their cholesterol levels. However, you can always opt for their salads and other light foods to keep the cholesterol in check.
Foods to Avoid at Applebee's for High Cholesterol
If you have high cholesterol, then you must avoid eating sandwiches, wraps, and tacos at Applebee's. While the salads and soups sound healthy, you must skip the Fiesta Chopped Salad and Loaded Potato Soup at Applebee's. It is also advised to dodge the Three Cheese Chicken Penne and Chicken Fajita Rollup. Any main meal with over 100mg cholesterol is not idle for someone with high cholesterol. So, skip those items at Applebee's.
Food Suggestions to Maintain Cholesterol Level at Applebee's
I know I said I hate "chain" restaurants...but honestly I really do. We were looking for a reverse happy hour and this was close by so we gave in. The beer was cold, but our food took FOREVER...literally! Then, they cooked my steak incorrectly...instead medium rare it came out super over done...I asked for a baked potato and got mashed. I can say that the bartender (we sat at the bar), noticed immediately and sent it back and had it taken off of our bill. So the two stars is for the food and for the slow service of the kitchen...I'd give more for the attentiveness of the bartender and the manager!

Had the fried chicken salad. Wish they would add a grilled chicken salad. Trying to make good choices with my dining, and fried chicken strips on a salad is counter productive. Waitress/bartender was on the spot. If you go between 4 - 6 don't sit facing the window, the Sun blinds you like a Gamma Ray. I asked the bartender if she could shut the blind as the sun was reflecting off a wind shield and boring a hole in my face, I pointed at the window. She proceeded to shut all blinds but the one that had the super nova coming through.

Went to Applebee's for a bite Sunday night. The music was loud and... interesting. Not quite like the Applebee's I'm used to. We decided to get an appetizer sampler (2 smaller portions for $10) with the Brew Pub Pretzels & Beer Cheese Dip and Mozzarella Sticks. My boyfriend also got a Maple Bacon Chicken Piadini (no lettuce and the maple mustard on the side, in case I wanted to share). Took a little while to get our food. I was afraid the appetizers would come out cold, but they were actually warm and my b/f's wrap and fries were basically room temperature. There were 2 long, skinny pretzels and 4 mozz stix. The wrap wasn't bad with some of the leftover marinara and cheese dip. We ordered dessert via the tabletop kiosk. We got 2 Dessert Shooters as well as the new Churro S'mores, which looked too interesting not to try. The churros were very skinny and should have been warmer. I liked the toasted marshmallows but was disappointed in the chocolate underneath. It was just chocolate syrup, not actual melted chocolate, and it wasn't even warm. Not my favorite. My Strawberry Cheesecake Shooter was decent and my b/f's Chocolate Mousse Shooter was very thick and rich. Our server was alright... he seemed a bit overwhelmed, even though it wasn't that busy. The pay function on the kiosk was disabled... What a gyp! Applebee's left a lot to be desired.

Been here several different times trying to if maybe ill get better service but no luck. One time I went with a group of eight and the server was just not in a good mood I wish I could remember her name so I can put her on blast. She was in a really bad mood it was late probably trying to get home. She was really racist as well. The food doesn't taste goo either it just taste like plastic EWWW. will not be going back!!

Shiity service, waitress needs to smile more. Food was great. It was pretty full for a Tuesday night. Kind of loud with people trying to over talk the music.

Went back today to try the new burgers advertised on TV. It has been quite some time since we have been here. The burgers looks so much better on TV. Honestly this has gone down hill. There is a Red Robin just down the road that you can get a much better burger at for a comparable if not cheaper price.

Pete P.
Worst service ever. Dont come here if you are in any hurry. There is something seriously wrong with the staff when they won't acknowledge you exist. I feel sorry for the residents of Goodyear who put up with this crap. Will definitely NOT be coming back to this location or any applebees.

On 9/8/15 ordered via curbside and when I arrived for my pick-up meal. I waited for about ten minutes for me to stop a waitress and tell her that I am here for a pick-up. When I walk in the door the night manager Ken walk around for several minutes and look at me and ignored my presence. I watch him walk around for ten minutes talking to the bartender laughing and smiling while ignoring me as I stood there patiently waiting for someone to retrieve my order. Horrible service. The manager was rude and should not be working in customer service.

We wanted to take my kids out to dinner this weekend and stopped at Applebees since it was pretty empty. After the hostesses treated us rudely and skipped over us SEVERAL TIMES, seating groups of people who had the same number of us and arrived well after us, my boyfriend commented and we promptly left. This is both the smallest and most unfriendly applebees we've been to. There are plenty of other places to eat down the street. No wonder they weren't so busy on a Saturday night.

Edward D.
Met some family members here who were in town visiting. Most of this franchised restaurants are all about the same. Food is basically OK, and has to much salt. Only thing different is their service. There were about seven of us, the service was pretty good. None of us had nothing to complain about. We all ate our meal, and had a good time. Applebee's has never been a favorite of mine, but this location made the experience enjoyable.

WORST Applebee's I have EVER been to anywhere in the country!!!! 10 minute wait to get silverware AFTER OUR FOOD CAME. Bartender was only good thing about this place!!! Slow service, cold food & NASTY bathrooms!!!(1st time complained about bathrooms, got laughed at by manager)....NEVER AGAIN!!!!

Eduardo L.
Horrible service went there to have a nice dinner with my wife and we had horrible service. The food came cold and when it was time to leave we could not get anyone to come to our table to get the check but saw all the girls at the bar talking and laughing. I am never going back to that place.

Chuck B.
Service was awful. Slow as molasses. Waitress even confused my wife's card with someone else's and had to go back and redo both tickets. It's not that complicated, you know. Food was awful. Had high hopes for the bourbon chicken and shrimp, and was very disappointed. The quesadilla burger didn't taste bad, but it was really greasy. Screaming kids were awful. Tacky decor. Menus need to be wiped down at least every other month whether they need it or not. The only reason this is 2 star instead of one is because they accidentally brought me two beers instead of the one I ordered, so that was comped. It was like getting the "Bank error in your favor, collect $50" card in Monopoly.

I don't know how we ended up here, but I will not be back. Probably to any Applebee's honestly. So incredibly greasy, so incredibly expensive!!! I know right? Skip it, there has to be somewhere else.

How could it take 30 mins to make spinach dip especially when it was slow? Wilted salad disgusting. I usually like going here for happy hour. This was my first bad experience! Hopefully they get more cooks wal know what their doing. And it's all about the management. Step it up!

Rosemary L.
Went there recently, have not been to one in AZ. Was mildly surprised by it not being very good. We frequented Applebees a lot in CO. because it was close to work. I ordered a chinese chicken salad and it was about a saucer full for nearly 10 dollars. My husband had soup and sandwich. All you can eat soup came in cup size bowl and sandwich was 1/2, for 8 dollars. Where is the value in that? The waitress was very SLOW to arrive but after that was attentive and very friendly. We both walked out still hungry after an over $20.00 check. Wont be going back to Applebees. Would have had a much better lunch at Cheesecake Factory for about the same price.

Jessica P.
I do really REALLY wish they would actually have their blondie come out SIZZLING like they used to. Why serve it on a griddle when you aren't going to have it even hardly hot?? Service was not great at all. Yes, we were a larger group, but the place wasn't that busy and our server kept disappearing and there were many times our drinks were empty for longer than 5 minutes.

Brianna P.
The hostess are terrible and need to work on their customer service skills, our waitress did the bare minimum and the food left something to be desired. This is the second bad experience at this location. I will not be coming back

My wife and I love stopping by there once a week for our date night. We go during happy hour, you can't beat half price drinks and appetizers. Drink recommendations; the Perfect Margarita or the Long Island Ice Tea, both of which are on the happy hour special. Appetizer recommendation; wanton tacos or nachos, sadly the nachos are not on the special.

Patreesha G.
We have not been at this Applebee's in quite some time and stopped in after leaving another local restaurant after not getting any service after 10 minutes of waiting. Anyway.......it was great and I wanted to mention on nice our server was. Roxie rocked and we always had everything we wanted and right on time. It's always great to write about great service and food. We'll be back.

Amber G.
Applebee's has changed their menu since I have been last and a lot of it looks really yummy!! I had their chicken won ton tacos, you get 4 little tacos for $5.99 and they also have pulled pork. They were sooo good!! This was a take out order, so I can not comment on the service in the restaurant. Maybe I will visit them more often. You can also get delivery for Applebee's from You Buy and We Fly food delivery service!!

Just had lunch in their newly remodeled store. This was by far the worst lunch we've had in quite some time. Server brought my order and not my dining partner's. The waitress checked back later and said the other order was "dropped" and was reordered. Both food orders were awful. It is hard to ruin a simple hamburger and onion rings but they managed quite easily. The table behind us had their order messed up too. We will definitely NOT be going back!

Kayleigh L.
I was at this location not too long ago, & I have to say it wasn't like it usually is. It seemed like we were just being rushed in and out. Our waitress(Didn't give us her name) was a bit rude. Whenever we tried to order an appetizer she just dropped our drinks on the table and walked off! It also took forever to just get a refill when the place wasn't even half full. We had ordered the soup and salad and that also took more than what it needed to be, & of course when she did bring it by she once again just whisked off before we could ask for a refill. Obviously she wasn't tipped.

Caitlin C.
Or server was Tamrah B. She was very nice and patient with our 3 year old ordering. The only complaint is the wait. It took 3 min to get our appatizer and another 20 min to get our meal.

Sandy A.
This place has been horrible. Sitting here still waiting for our waitress for 35 minutes just to order dessert not to mention when we sat down 25 min for silverware. I tried very hard to give this place a chance. But this is horrible. I asked to speak to a manager and they even sent her to the wrong table. Still haven't talked to a manager as I'm writing this review. Horrible horrible horrible!

Chelsea P.
The service sucks here, my drink is so strong and my friends steak is terrible. An hour waiting for her steak! And it's disgusting! Wtf hire new people.
My Wife and I used to go to this restaurant , however after the last visit, it took twenty plus minutes to get the entrees. The appetizer that we had ordered had not arrived The server went looking and returned, It was cold When asked about this we were ignored from that point. we got another server, who was just as lackadaisical we also asked for a manager, and never had any response In all we will not return to this Applebees, and all other restaurants from this company are off my list

Taija G.
This was our first time here on a Sunday night, and it wasn't very busy but the service was awful! Took forever to be seated, and then our server disappeared for a good while. Food was better than expected ( we ordered the steak and it's usually hit or miss here ) but tonight it was better than previous visits.

Desiree M.
Waited WAY to long for everything to come out or to even get a beer refill. We didn't even get our artichoke dip till after our food came out. Even though the food was good we will not be going back due to the service. We even seen 2 different tables walk out because no one had even gone to get their drink orders.

Poor customer service. Asked for a specific table, was told we could get it when it became available and then told rudely that we couldn't have that table. Never coming to this location again. Had better service in the south side 24th St and baseline location.

I took my mom and dad here for dinner and as usual, the food is always good and the server was on his game. Personally , I think the food is a little over priced!

Our lunch was incredibly yummy. Started off with green goddess wedge salad and then Napa chicken & portobellos under 550 calories (even tho it came with deep fried potatoes so that's pretty amazing) Service was great and accomodated our requests for dressings and whatnot on the side. Not sure what everyone is griping about, we had a great experience and with their new delicious & healthy menu, will definitely include Applebee's in our future dining :)

I have not been to an Applebee's in awhile. The menu has changed but it still had a LOT of choices to pick from. We were not aware of the 2 for $20 deal until the 2nd to the last page of the menu. Why not? Got the Southern BBQ boneless chicken for the appetizer. The BBQ was not too bad. The chicken was crispy and juicy. I ordered the chicken tenders with fries and the hubby ordered the three cheese penne with chicken. The chicken tenders were a little on the dry side. The three cheese penne with chicken was not too bad. Our server AJ kicked a$$. He was on top of his game. Always checking in on us and he attitude was GREAT!

Erin D.
GROSS! It had been years since I've been here, so I took my kids recently. The music from the bar area was so loud, I could not hear my thoughts! We had to wait a few minutes too long for an waitress introduction and drink order. While we waited for our server to appear, we had plenty of time to decide what to order and did so at the same time we ordered drinks. The food was cheap and low-quality. My daughters mac and cheese looked like something frozen and reheated from home. Her side fruit actually came in a store-bought container. The food just yucky-the service and atmosphere even worse!

Evelyn L.
If I could give this place NO STARS I would. My brothers and I took my Mom their once for their birthday and waited about 30 minutes for someone else with the same amount of people in their party to get seated before us when they had arrived after. The girl that was in charge of putting us down on the list totally forgot to do so. We only figured this out when my brother when to ask her how much longer we would be waiting she looked at him super confused like what are you talking about your not on the list but with out having to say anything. I got so mad that we just left and went ac cross the street to Friday's unfortunately is not longer open. I will not be going their ever again tried to report them to corporate and I couldn't find a way to do it.

The food was awful, the service was worse and I was sorry that out of all the places to go in that area we chose this one. It was not my choice and will never be the choice of anyone in our family again. The food was overcooked, not what was ordered or cold..take your pick! The waitress that did finally show up to take our order never showed up again but we got two other waitresses that refilled our drinks all wrong and one looked at me crazy when I told her we ordred fries instead of this big mushroom cap with spinach on top! So the plate comes back with cold fries AND the mushroom! Yuck. The steaks were over cooked and oh so small. The portions have shrunk but the prices have gone up.

This was my first visit to this Apple Bee's location. As usual, they have menu options for just about everyone (the skinny, the big and the rich and the poor). The hockey championship game was playing so the bar was full. There was also a 21st birthday party there which was pretty cool. Our waiter was great. He was also waiting on the party, but he made sure to check in with us as often as he could. He check in with us a few times about our food which was a little weird. I guess the way it works is if we order an appetizer it delays the time our entree's come out which is fine. We were in no rush. We had made it just in time for the last 30 minutes of happy hour. The one thing that was also a little weird about our waiter is that he mentioned that he used to work at TGI Fridays and that they all closed down because business was not good. To me, that's not a small talk topic for a party you are waiting on. I ordered the chicken and shrimp fajitas. I didn't realize that it does not come with rice on the side, but the rice is really not needed. They give you the chicken, shrimp, peppers and onions plus all the fixings for the fajitas (cheese, salsa, sour cream and softshells). That filled me up. Otherwise, it seemed like a typical AppleBee's nothing exceptional about it, and there is no reason why I would not go back.

We went early today to avoid any possible rush. Greeted nicely and seated right away. Immediate service with drinks being brought straight away. At this point my mate says; dark in here. The wait person came to take our order. Tonight we had Cory as our server, a very upbeat helpful person providing good service. We order our dinners plus soup. We both liked our soup, I enjoyed my main plate of ribs, my mate did not like his thinking; where is the Cajun in the steak. The steak it self was tender and cooked as requested. Just no discernable flavour. Even though I enjoyed my food I have a feeling we will not be going back. In the middle of the meal they turn down the lights and turn up the music. The music was just fine, why try to drown out conversation? I also might suggest that someone, everyone clean the front door where people put there fingers, it is grimy from long periods of not being cleaned. Also much closer to the diner is the shades on the windows they are absolutely disgusting with grime. I doubt they have ever been cleaned.

About Applebee's
Applebee is an American full-service restaurant brand popularly known for its signature Riblets. Applebee was conceptualized in 1980 by Bill and TJ Palmer in Atlanta, Georgia. At first, the restaurant was named T.J. Applebee's RX for Edibles and Elixirs. After the concept was acquired by W.R. Grace and Company, the restaurant was renamed as Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar. Later the company and the Applebee's concept changed hands with Abe Gustin and John Hamra who started the first Applebee's franchise restaurant in Kansas City.
Later in 2007, IHOP Corp. now known as DineEquity, Inc. acquired Applebee's and began their journey together to make Applebee's the world's largest full-service restaurant chain. Today, Applebee's serves at more than 1,830 locations worldwide. The Applebee's menu ranges from Appetizers and Salads to heavy meals consisting of ribs and steak. Although the trademark dish Riblets is a hot favorite among regular Applebee's dwellers, the restaurant also serves some amazing burgers, sandwiches, pasta, and salads.
Healthy Food Options at Applebee's
When a restaurant serves ribs as their main dish, then you can assume the diet-friendliness of their menu. Well, Applebee's is no different. However, you can dig deeper into their menu and pick some good healthy food options for sure. You can try the salads, light sandwiches, appetizers to ensure you don't order heavy items, etc. If you are really diet conscious, then you got to be careful with their steaks & ribs as well as desserts section.

One time I went with a group of eight and the server was just not in a good mood I wish I could remember her name so I can put her on blast.

I ordered a chinese chicken salad and it was about a saucer full for nearly 10 dollars. My husband had soup and sandwich. All you can eat soup came in cup size bowl and sandwich was 1/2, for 8 dollars. Where is the value in that? The waitress was very SLOW to arrive but after that was attentive and very friendly. We both walked out still hungry after an over $20.00 check. Wont be going back to Applebees. Would have had a much better lunch at Cheesecake Factory for about the same price.

I do really REALLY wish they would actually have their blondie come out SIZZLING like they used to. Why serve it on a griddle when you aren't going to have it even hardly hot?? Service was not great at all. Yes, we were a larger group, but the place wasn't that busy and our server kept disappearing and there were many times our drinks were empty for longer than 5 minutes.

The hostess are terrible and need to work on their customer service skills, our waitress did the bare minimum and the food left something to be desired. This is the second bad experience at this location. I will not be coming back

My wife and I love stopping by there once a week for our date night. We go during happy hour, you can't beat half price drinks and appetizers. Drink recommendations; the Perfect Margarita or the Long Island Ice Tea, both of which are on the happy hour special. Appetizer recommendation; wanton tacos or nachos, sadly the nachos are not on the special.

We have not been at this Applebee's in quite some time and stopped in after leaving another local restaurant after not getting any service after 10 minutes of waiting. Anyway.......it was great and I wanted to mention on nice our server was. Roxie rocked and we always had everything we wanted and right on time. It's always great to write about great service and food. We'll be back.

Applebee's has changed their menu since I have been last and a lot of it looks really yummy!! I had their chicken won ton tacos, you get 4 little tacos for $5.99 and they also have pulled pork. They were sooo good!! This was a take out order, so I can not comment on the service in the restaurant. Maybe I will visit them more often. You can also get delivery for Applebee's from You Buy and We Fly food delivery service!!

Just had lunch in their newly remodeled store. This was by far the worst lunch we've had in quite some time. Server brought my order and not my dining partner's. The waitress checked back later and said the other order was "dropped" and was reordered. Both food orders were awful. It is hard to ruin a simple hamburger and onion rings but they managed quite easily. The table behind us had their order messed up too. We will definitely NOT be going back!

I was at this location not too long ago, & I have to say it wasn't like it usually is. It seemed like we were just being rushed in and out. Our waitress(Didn't give us her name) was a bit rude. Whenever we tried to order an appetizer she just dropped our drinks on the table and walked off! It also took forever to just get a refill when the place wasn't even half full. We had ordered the soup and salad and that also took more than what it needed to be, & of course when she did bring it by she once again just whisked off before we could ask for a refill. Obviously she wasn't tipped.

Or server was Tamrah B. She was very nice and patient with our 3 year old ordering. The only complaint is the wait. It took 3 min to get our appatizer and another 20 min to get our meal.

This place has been horrible. Sitting here still waiting for our waitress for 35 minutes just to order dessert not to mention when we sat down 25 min for silverware. I tried very hard to give this place a chance. But this is horrible. I asked to speak to a manager and they even sent her to the wrong table. Still haven't talked to a manager as I'm writing this review. Horrible horrible horrible!

The service sucks here, my drink is so strong and my friends steak is terrible. An hour waiting for her steak! And it's disgusting! Wtf hire new people.

I had a terrible experience here. I had been to applebee's in other states, and the décor and atmosphere was nicer. They had wooden floors and an open feel. This place had carpet!! Carpet?! That's disgusting! In a restaurant, food falls on the floor, gets stepped on. Gross.. the décor was outdated. After all Applebees is not known for their fantastic food but they are supposed to be known for their fun atmosphere. Next the service was awful! The hostess not friendly, first waitress not friendly. The food was gross and clearly frozen, not of the ingredients except the salad was fresh. The steak was gross, under seasoned bad seasoning, over weirdly seasoned broccoli (frozen, you can taste it). The chicken tasted like water, not like good fresh chicken. To be quite honest you would be better off going to a food truck. At least there would be flavor and fresher ingredients. Save yourself the trip go somewhere else. Don't spend your money here.

My Wife and I used to go to this restaurant , however after the last visit, it took twenty plus minutes to get the entrees. The appetizer that we had ordered had not arrived The server went looking and returned, It was cold When asked about this we were ignored from that point. we got another server, who was just as lackadaisical we also asked for a manager, and never had any response In all we will not return to this Applebees, and all other restaurants from this company are off my list

This was our first time here on a Sunday night, and it wasn't very busy but the service was awful! Took forever to be seated, and then our server disappeared for a good while. Food was better than expected ( we ordered the steak and it's usually hit or miss here ) but tonight it was better than previous visits.
(3)Desiree M.
Waited WAY to long for everything to come out or to even get a beer refill. We didn't even get our artichoke dip till after our food came out. Even though the food was good we will not be going back due to the service. We even seen 2 different tables walk out because no one had even gone to get their drink orders.

Poor customer service. Asked for a specific table, was told we could get it when it became available and then told rudely that we couldn't have that table. Never coming to this location again. Had better service in the south side 24th St and baseline location.

This was our first time at this location. Our server was on the spot and the food was surprisingly good. I would return to this location again.

I took my mom and dad here for dinner and as usual, the food is always good and the server was on his game. Personally , I think the food is a little over priced!

Our lunch was incredibly yummy. Started off with green goddess wedge salad and then Napa chicken & portobellos under 550 calories (even tho it came with deep fried potatoes so that's pretty amazing) Service was great and accomodated our requests for dressings and whatnot on the side. Not sure what everyone is griping about, we had a great experience and with their new delicious & healthy menu, will definitely include Applebee's in our future dining :)

I have not been to an Applebee's in awhile. The menu has changed but it still had a LOT of choices to pick from. We were not aware of the 2 for $20 deal until the 2nd to the last page of the menu. Why not? Got the Southern BBQ boneless chicken for the appetizer. The BBQ was not too bad. The chicken was crispy and juicy. I ordered the chicken tenders with fries and the hubby ordered the three cheese penne with chicken. The chicken tenders were a little on the dry side. The three cheese penne with chicken was not too bad. Our server AJ kicked a$$. He was on top of his game. Always checking in on us and he attitude was GREAT!

GROSS! It had been years since I've been here, so I took my kids recently. The music from the bar area was so loud, I could not hear my thoughts! We had to wait a few minutes too long for an waitress introduction and drink order. While we waited for our server to appear, we had plenty of time to decide what to order and did so at the same time we ordered drinks. The food was cheap and low-quality. My daughters mac and cheese looked like something frozen and reheated from home. Her side fruit actually came in a store-bought container. The food just yucky-the service and atmosphere even worse!

If I could give this place NO STARS I would. My brothers and I took my Mom their once for their birthday and waited about 30 minutes for someone else with the same amount of people in their party to get seated before us when they had arrived after. The girl that was in charge of putting us down on the list totally forgot to do so. We only figured this out when my brother when to ask her how much longer we would be waiting she looked at him super confused like what are you talking about your not on the list but with out having to say anything. I got so mad that we just left and went ac cross the street to Friday's unfortunately is not longer open. I will not be going their ever again tried to report them to corporate and I couldn't find a way to do it.

The food was awful, the service was worse and I was sorry that out of all the places to go in that area we chose this one. It was not my choice and will never be the choice of anyone in our family again. The food was overcooked, not what was ordered or cold..take your pick! The waitress that did finally show up to take our order never showed up again but we got two other waitresses that refilled our drinks all wrong and one looked at me crazy when I told her we ordred fries instead of this big mushroom cap with spinach on top! So the plate comes back with cold fries AND the mushroom! Yuck. The steaks were over cooked and oh so small. The portions have shrunk but the prices have gone up.

This was my first visit to this Apple Bee's location. As usual, they have menu options for just about everyone (the skinny, the big and the rich and the poor). The hockey championship game was playing so the bar was full. There was also a 21st birthday party there which was pretty cool. Our waiter was great. He was also waiting on the party, but he made sure to check in with us as often as he could. He check in with us a few times about our food which was a little weird. I guess the way it works is if we order an appetizer it delays the time our entree's come out which is fine. We were in no rush. We had made it just in time for the last 30 minutes of happy hour. The one thing that was also a little weird about our waiter is that he mentioned that he used to work at TGI Fridays and that they all closed down because business was not good. To me, that's not a small talk topic for a party you are waiting on. I ordered the chicken and shrimp fajitas. I didn't realize that it does not come with rice on the side, but the rice is really not needed. They give you the chicken, shrimp, peppers and onions plus all the fixings for the fajitas (cheese, salsa, sour cream and softshells). That filled me up. Otherwise, it seemed like a typical AppleBee's nothing exceptional about it, and there is no reason why I would not go back.

Nice and clean. I was there right when they opened though. Friendly staff. Would visit again.

A typical franchised Applebee's. The buffalo wing appetizers were good and blue moon on tap! Friendly waitress and staff.

We went early today to avoid any possible rush. Greeted nicely and seated right away. Immediate service with drinks being brought straight away. At this point my mate says; dark in here. The wait person came to take our order. Tonight we had Cory as our server, a very upbeat helpful person providing good service. We order our dinners plus soup. We both liked our soup, I enjoyed my main plate of ribs, my mate did not like his thinking; where is the Cajun in the steak. The steak it self was tender and cooked as requested. Just no discernable flavour. Even though I enjoyed my food I have a feeling we will not be going back. In the middle of the meal they turn down the lights and turn up the music. The music was just fine, why try to drown out conversation? I also might suggest that someone, everyone clean the front door where people put there fingers, it is grimy from long periods of not being cleaned. Also much closer to the diner is the shades on the windows they are absolutely disgusting with grime. I doubt they have ever been cleaned.
