Food Suggestions to Maintain Cholesterol Level at Applebee's
Haven't been to one of their locations in a while due to a negative experience previously. I was pleasantly surprised with this visit. Initially I thought it was going to be another bad experience when we weren't acknowledged at the front for over five minutes. However, once we were greeted, everything went up from that point. The waitress was nice and took care of us quickly despite being a larger group (8 people). The food was good, especially the curly fries! The overall restaurant is smaller, so if you bring in a larger group it can be a bit difficult to accommodate, so you may want to consider calling ahead. Overall: B+ Definite improvement in how I feel about the chain.

Tried again on 9/12/15, service was really bad, took forever for the food. Overtime we questioned something we were told "there is a new owner now". Well new owner or old owner, when it is a chain you expect that things are very similar. But the food was below average, service was very bad. If you go here, plan enticing at least a hour and a half for wings and burgers. Sebring has many other options that are much better.

My first trip here was NOT a good experience. But let me say therer were 6 of us and our food was all very good. We received an ad in the newspaper advertising specials listed at $6.49 everyday. They did not say lunch so we went for dinner at about 5 pm. We were seated and given menus which of couse did not contain this special. Our waitress was not friendly to say the least proclaimed to know nothing about the special and we had to show her the flyer. She spoke with the manager who also said he knew nothing about this it must be corporate. We said we came for the $6.49 specials. We received our food and it was good. Our waitress never refilled our drinks but another waitress was much nicer and did. She also talked to us and seemed to be pleasant. Upon receiving our bill our $6.49 specials were $8.99 and when we questioned it the manager told us the specials were "from" $6.49 but ours were not... when we asked which ones were $6.49 our "sour" waitress said 2 of them were $6.49 but she didn't know which 2. Needless to say we felt like we had been given the bait and switch routine and none of us left as happy campers. We were a group of 6 but sometimes we have as many as 12 when we go to eat and I can assure you that none of us will return to that establishment. We are snowbirds and we eat out 5-8 times per week but with so many restaurants to choose from we do not need to support restaurants that give poor service and use the bait and switch tactics to sell food. The manager had the ability to turn this experience into a favorable visit but chose to ignore our complaints.

This is potentially the worst place to eat in Sebring, Florida. I want you to pause for a moment and consider the full gravity of that statement. The worst place to eat... in SEBRING. That's a low, low, low bar. I've been forced to go here a number of times for meetings. They have yet to successfully complete an order I've placed. The service has always been harried, as though the strain of bringing the food is about to cause them to have a nervous breakdown. But without a doubt the lowlight of the place is the food. I've been cursed to be here so many times I've had quite a tour of the menu, desperately searching for something edible. The burgers, the chicken, it's all rank. If there's someone you have a particular hatred for and desire them to find physical harm, recommend Beef O'Brady's fish.

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.
