If I could give this place negative stars, I would. This location is an absolute joke. Based on my last visit, I can't give you a review of the food, because my order was never taken. Hell, I couldn't tell you how the water tastes because I was never asked what I wanted to drink. Walked in there with my fiance and sat in the bar area. Waited 10 minutes for someone to come and wipe our table down. The server said she would be back with silverware. I then watched her disappear to the kitchen, come back out, and wipe down other tables. Thought that was strange. After waiting an additional 10 minutes, we just decide to go sit at the bar. Wait at the bar for a couple minutes, then the bartender comes up to us and wipes down the bar area and walks away. Doesn't ask what we want to drink or if we want to look at menus. He goes to the kitchen too. We wait for him to come out, which he does, 10 minutes later, then goes back into the kitchen. At that point, we realized that we were stupid for thinking we'll get something to eat and drink at a restaurant. I could have applied for Applebee's franchise, interviewed staff, planned a grand opening, and get food from there in a shorter amount of time. Unacceptably poor service. Will never go back there again. If you want to eat food and get something to drink, don't go to this location. Must not want anyone to dirty up the tables they spend all day wiping down.

Filthy!....And on a Thursday night. Carpets are old & disgusting. Toilets were gross and unattended. The back bar is a mess. Then take a look at the ac vents above your head BEFORE you eat! They are blackkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk! Shut this shit hole down!
(1)Charles K.
This review is only for the to-go services... When it's getting late in this part of town, you do not have too many choices of places to eat. In this shopping center you have McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Applebee's. With these choices Applee's becomes the place you convince yourself to eat. The best thing about this location is that you order from a to-go counter (similar to BWW). It normally takes about 15 minutes and you are on your way. I always check my food before I leave, but so far my order has always been correct (knock on wood).

Me and a friend came tonight just to grab a quick meal and drink before we were to hit the clubs in DC. We arrived at 8:50 and were seated immediately. By 9:15 we had yet to meet our server. I asked the hostess to let the server know we were there and she did. By 9:23 we just left. The place was maybe a third in its capacity so it was nowhere near filled. Half the staff were outside smoking and drinking. Basically, this place is ghetto. Only African American staff too. This place is terrible. Will never come back. I've also written corporate.
(1)Lydia S.
This place is the worst Applebee's in existence! The customer service is horrible and the management is no better. I used to frequent this place often until I noticed high turn over in the staff. The level of professionalism is slim to none under this new management! I went in for a drink, sat at the bar..the bartender never acknowledge I was sitting there for about 8 minutes. She was entertaining a group of her own friends that had come to her bar to get a hook up on drinks as one of the seemingly uneducated friends yelled loudly, as if that is ok for the bartendar to do. Once she did acknowledge me I told her I would rather just sit a one of the bar tables, she said ok hour server will be right over. I sat myself at one of the bar tables and proceeded to wait 10 minutes for a server to come take my order. Then she brought half my order and not my entire order when she came back. I ordered a lemonade and house margarita..she brought the margarita and not the lemonade. I waited another 15 minutes, she never comes back with the lemonade. I then go to the bar and ask the bartendar to see a manager. I go back to my table and watched the bartendar to see if she was going to get a manager or not. I waited another 10 minutes, still no manager. I then got up walked to then kitchen and yelled "Is there a manager in this place or do y'all just run it like wild animals"?? Come to find out there was a group of individuals huddled up not far from the kitchen and one of them just happen to be the manager. Who by the way was within ear shot of the bartender. The bartender never told the manager I needed to see her! I explained my frustrations to the manager and she said well I don't know what to say. I said don't worry..u don't have to say anything, I'll just go to Outback which is 5 minutes away & proceeded to walk out. The manager Sharina Mitchell then proceeded to run behind me demanding I pay for the $4 margarita I ordered even though my entire experience was horrible and my order was wrong! She threatened to call the police over a $4 margarita that should have been comped to me because of the shotty service I was provided. I kindly threw Sharona $4 on the floor for her to pick up, just like trash! I will never go to this Applebee's again and I plan to start a petition tonhabe them closed down and replaced with a more upscale professional restaurant that offers good service and care about the quality of work their employees put out as a representation of their poor business practices! Zero Stars! Negative zero stars!!!
(1)Travis S.
I don't really eat at chain restaurants however, I was celebrating a born day with colleagues. The establishment was filled with the happy hour crew. I don't think rap music with curse words are appropriate for restaurant settings. We order food, the service was slow to the point that the waitress forgot the birthday person meal.she did comp the meal though. I ordered the 2 for 20, my chicken tenders were drenched in BBQ sauce and my colleagues were dry. For main course I had a steak, mash potatoes loaded and broccoli. The steak was tough if seemed as if I was eating a tire. The food was very bland overall. I guess this is why people get drunk at hh and eat lol.....
(2)Donnell B.
The only reason I'm giving them two stars is because of the long islands Ice Teas. Although this place is close to my home, this Applebee's is always my LAST result. After sending 3 appetizers back, then two entrees because it wasnt the right order I was done. This place is always a problem. I would not recommend this Applebees.
(2)Hair C.
Got a $25 certificate to try it again. Hey, I enjoyed it actually! Good food and drinks! Will definitely go back...
(4)Coast To Coast D.
With places like this it's always up to the crew !!! There is one in every city and the food is usually the same or par The service makes the place The service makes the experience And as for mine experience the bar tender / server at the time was on point So my review of this chain was very expected and they played a birdie for the hole
(3)Jeimy F.
Pasta nasty. I would have done better boiling some pasta and buying a can of Alfredo sauce and 2 pieces of frozen chicken. Horrible service! I know better but was near by and very hungry. Yuck!!!!
(1)Leachim S.
Not impressed. My salad came out the same time as my meal. The nachos we ordered were made wrong and had to be brought back. The balsamic salad dressing was not balsamic and the waitress didn't bother to inform me that it was something different... Still not sure what it was?!?
(1)Hope L.
Ugh! I just can not figure out why this Applebees can't seem to get it together!! I have been here on numerous occasions and am always disappointed by one thing or the other. Staff is just...moody Food is very hit or miss Enviroment/atomophere is typical Applebees. It really sucks that I can't get into this place because they have cool things like a DJ on some nights and cheap prices for late-night grabs but I just can't deal with rude staff and wondering if they are going to mess up my food...again!
(2)Mark F.
This place is rather hit or miss--unfortunately it takes trial and error to know what's good and not. The bar won tons are just gross. We couldn't even finish them. The service is spotty depending on who you get. We ordered blue moons one time, and what we got was definitely not it. Turns out they had switched the line but did not inform the bartenders.... with that said: their burgers are decent, as is their wings, and that's usually what we go for. Monday's are $6.99 burger night and Wednesday are $5 wing nights. Oh. And the shiracha shrimp is pretty fantastic -- reminds me of the dynamite shrimp the used to have years ago. If you go during a happy hour, or when something is discounted, it's more worth the trip.
(3)Renata P.
Awful. Placed an order and noone was at the take out booth. They have me standing at side near the kitchen. I'm waiting. The manager passed me several times and didn't acknowledge. Kitchen staff came and helped. Dissatisfied.
(1)Ashley W.
The service could always be better wherever you go, but at least they try to fix the mistakes. The music late night is a little urban for me but others seem to love it. I will definitely come back for the happy hour specials!!
(4)Karim B.
The worst restaurant in business. The only reason they are still running is because there are too many people that are accepting of horrible service because of convenience and price. Some of the servers acted as if they didn't want to show up to work that day. One of the "servers" was walking around with cloth napkins and was dropping them down on random tables haphazardly. Also a server was walking around with her shirt not pulled down displaying her love handles while I was trying to enjoy my beer. Not exactly what I want to see. The only reason I came here was to meet up with friends. I will never spend money on the food in this establishment.
(1)Christen L.
I was really looking forward to a nice meal after a day out with my boyfriend, and I enjoy Applebee's food, so we walk in and stand there. There was no host and everyone in the place just practically stared at us like we had 3 heads for 5 minutes. Finally the bartender came over to us and took us to a booth. Now, I love Drake and co., but I don't think playing hip hot hits from the bar is appropriate for a "family restaurant" My boyfriend suggested maybe it was because it was late night... There were about 10 dirty tables piled with dishes everywhere that not one person cleaned up the entire time we were there (About 45 mins). Our waiter was nice enough, but barely attentive and seemed to have some screws loose. Our appetizer took about 15-20 mins to come out. Our steak tasted like old rubber boots. We asked to speak to a manager who said that she was so taken aback because she "never" gets guest complaints. C'mon. I'm a manager at a restaurant that's run a whooole lot better, and we still get at least 2 complaints a day. I asked her if the music is normally like that and she said yup! She asked what she could do to make things better... Definitely will NOT be returning to this Applebee's.

If I could give this place no stars I would. Last week my friend and I decided that we wanted to do happy hour at this location. I wasn't too thrilled when I first walked in. First thing, all the employees were huddled up towards the front discussing the latest episode of Love and Hip Hop. Strike one. After being seated our server took 10 minutes to greet us. I mean the place was empty and one of the employees from the front could've at least taken our drink order. Once the server arrived. He was nice and friendly. So I felt a tad bit better. He took our drink orders and left us to talk. In the middle of our conversation. I saw a roach walk across our table. I immediately got up and moved to another table. Strike two. I wanted to leave but my friend advised we should stay. She didn't want us to be the dramatic guest. So I let it be. I was still concerned but not as much. I looked to the front were all the servers were hanging out but the clan disbursed. We let the server know and he told his manager. Once our food got there and we were seated at another table. Things simmered down. Towards the end of our meal my friend said "don't freak out". At first I wasn't sure what she was referring to until I looked down at the table. There was another roach! Strike Three When our sever came back again we let him know of the second roach encounter. he grabs a manager and she comes directly to us. Once we told her the problem she makes it seem as it was no big deal. "There are no roaches in our kitchen, and they're usually brought in by guest...not saying that you brought them in but that's what happens" Complete BS. She also said they were bringing in an exterminator. Another lie. I will never eat here again. Very unacceptable..poor management.

***Note: It makes me really sad to post such a negative review because this used to be a REALLY nice Applebee's. So nice that when my friends and I graduated high school back in '02, our families took us all out to dinner here. I also remember going here to celebrate getting my driver's liscense when I was 16 AND this is where I ate dinner on my first, official date.*** It took us almost three hours for a party of four on a Friday night to get food. Now keep in mind, the place was by NO MEANS packed. If they have 30 tables, I'd say 7 were filled with small parties like ours. The bar only had a hand full of people. I don't feel they were understaffed because there were several waitresses hanging around the front laughing and saying mean things about some other server who apparently is a "loser" because she's in her late 20s, lives at home with her mom and can't drive a car. Yes, real classy ladies...putting down a coworker right in front of the customers. I'm not saying you have to love everyone you work with, believe me I talk about people at work too, but I do it AWAY from our clients. Anyhow, we had a very nice, though inattentive waitress. She seated us around 6:00 and came back almost 15 minutes later to take our DRINK order. After another 15 minutes she came back with our sodas and took our food orders. We each ordered simple stuff -- cheesestick appetizer and burger entree for hubby, chicken and rice for me, burger for my brother, and soup and a salad for my sister. 30 minutes later, the appetizer arrives and seeing us all sucking on ice cubes, the waitress days she'll bring back refills. After 10 minutes, my brother got tired of waiting, and finally flagged down another server and who bought us refills. Another 40 minutes later and everyone's entree arrived except my sister. We all waited like 5 - 8 minutes and no sign of her soup and salad. We flagged down the hostess who apologized and said the kitchen was "backed up" (even though the people around us hadn't gotten their food either) and she'd bring out a salad. 10 more minutes and sis FINALLY gets her salad. It's supposed to be caesar but they've drowned it in so much salad dressing the leaves are kinda wilted and slimy. Sis is picking at her salad when our waitress arrives a minute later with another HUGE caesar salad that is just as gross. 15 more minutes go by and sister's onion soup FINALLY materializes. Everyone else is down eating, so we all order desert shooters so that we can at least kind of eat together. Another 20 minutes later, the dessert shooters arrived. Everyone is in a foul mood by that time. The only redeeming factor is the waitress DID at least apologize and say that there was a problem in the kitchen...apparently the cooks weren't making food in the right order and they were backed up. (even though they had a full staff and a little bit of customers...hmm...) After that experience, hubby has flat out refused to return. When we want burgers, we do McDonalds or Ruby Tuesdays. *Note: I would not recommend this Applebee's for carryout either. After giving Applebee's a break between 2005 - 2011 due to poor dining experience and the fact the place kept smelling weird (like mildew and old cooking oil), I started getting the food to go since the 2 for $20 is such a great deal. Hubby and I liked it at first. The to-go service was decent...our food wasn't hot when we picked it up, but at least it was prepared within 20 minutes and almost always correct. Nevermind the pressure to leave the person who takes your phone order a tip. (Until we complained to the manager, whoever took your phone order would always end the call with, "That'll be $34.52 after tax and BEFORE tip." And heaven help you if you didn't tip them...sucked teeth, rolled eyes, dirty looks..) Anyhow, something changed because the last three times hubby and I ordered and went to pick it up, the food wasn't ready and we had to wait another 10 - 20 minutes. Keep in mind they'll give us a time like, "5:35" so we wait and leave the house around 5:40, get there by 5:50 and we're told, "Oh, your food ain't ready yet. They still cooking the chicken/hamburger/putting together the salad." So we'd stand in the little waiting area w/the other people waiting for the food.

Let me say this....this is not your typical Applebee's! If your looking for family dining your better off at the McDonalds across the street but if your looking for a spot to have a GOOD drink and club like atmosphere then look no further. All the previous reviews are correct. The staff need customer service training (no lounging up from team) and the food is so so but I just wanted a really good drink without people stepping on my feet at the Club and guess what? I found it at Applebee's.....I hate to say it but although it's located in the suburbs of this is the hood style Applebee's . If you want to hear great music (yes, hip hop fanatic for life) then walk right in, grab a seat at the bar and grab a Long Island and your on your way to real life Love and Hip Hop episode :)

Can't say anything for the food, but the three times my husband and I tried to eat here, we turned around and walked away when we couldn't even hear ourselves talk outside the restaurant over the incredibly loud music. I mean, seriously. This wasn't on a weekend, like Wends and Thurs night. I don't expect that from Applebees. Just another case of PG crapping over everything I enjoy.

I'm not a fan of Applebee's but one of our friends was really hungry so we went here thinking the service would be quick. There are definitely issues with the bar area. We sat at a table in the bar area and waited 25 minutes to put our drink orders in. My friend had to call the restaurant and ask to speak to the manager to let him know we had been sitting for over 20 minutes with no service. Then the waitress came over and did not immediately apologize. She looked annoyed that she had to wait on us. The food was alright (again not a fan). Then for the finale to this awful experience, she charged our tickets wrong when the tickets were clearly separated as to what tickets should be charged. Ugh! I will not be going back to this restaurant if I can prevent it.

Sat around the bar area were you should get faster service. We were coming from a long day of shopping. We got menu after 10 mins. Then sat for 25mins before we received the drink order I stopped looking at my watch. I just wanted to get the food and go. The Server seemed to be afraid of the Bartender. Now this was not our 1st. Or 2nd bad experience with this Applebee's. And the only reason we were back this time was that they had just reopened with a new look and we hoped a new attitude. Well the place looks great. There are on the 'C' list Cee ya! The TGIFriday's @ the BLVD is open now.

Terrible experience. It was my first visit. The wait times were entirely too long for dine in. Tables were not being bussed to seat new guests. After 20 minites, we were seated. We immediately gave our server both our drink and food order when she finally came. Then we waited. We talked, caught up with one another, and were really in no rush that Saturday night. But 30 more minutes passed before getting drinks. We told the manager. We were just ready to leave. She said our food was free but I was tired of waiting. I filed an online complaint and received a call from a regional manager. He asked if I would revisit that location. I said no, and don't plan on it.

this place is always unusually quiet for me. If you wanna better brighter atmosphere try jaspers 3 minutes away. Since its quiet it's probably a good place to go when you're breaking up with your girlfriend. The butter knives do not have serrated edges.

Horrible customer service. Our waitress was slow and unprofessional. I believe her name was Lissa S. It took her a while to take our order, but when she did, she pulled her order pad out of a crown royal pouch! I knew from that moment that she was going to be a problem. One of my friends ordered the chicken portobello but they gave him steak. When we told her that it was wrong, she tried to argue with us that it was chicken and I quote "That's how it's supposed to look" It's sad when you work in the food industry and can't tell the difference between poultry and beef! We ended up calling the 1-800 number to complain and received $10 gift cards. I will never go back to the Largo location again!

We visited Applebee's Sunday, Aug 28th, the day after hurricane Ireane. There was no wait and it wasn't busy. I ordered steak and eggs from the brunch menu and the eggs came back looking like they were cooked in some sort of dark teriaki sauce or just cooked too long and not scrambled at all but folded over. The manager told us this is how they cook their eggs and it wouldn't be any different if they were cooked again. The waitress gave us our drink order and we didn't see her for the next 30 mins. No water, no refils, no attention. My food came out before my childs food who only had pancakes and bacon. Overall, it was a very bad meal and the service was horrible.

I must say I've had bad experiences here in the past. My recent experience was excellent. The food was great, it could have come out faster but it was ok. I would think being one of three customers in the restaurant you shouldnt have to wait long for food, but it was cooked to perfection so I didnt mind the wait. The chicken fajita roll up was delicious. Big and tasty, not lacking anything. The Bowie location served the roll up with pretty much just bread and it was cold. Our carry-out desserts were delicious too. I now prefer this location over the bowie location. I think this location is under new management and the service and food has improved greatly.

So I know that this site is really to glorify the mom and pop's restaurateurs of the world, but I have to give it to America's Neighborhood grill for really stepping up its menu options. The weight watchers menu is excellent and the portions really help with America's expanding waistlines. My friend selected the grilled chipotle-lime shrimp and black bean corn salsa tossed with lime juice and chopped cilantro, served on a mix of grilled zucchini, marinated tomatoes, onions & red peppers with steamed white rice. She actually welcomed the smaller portion of rice. I ordered the most Amazing salad I ve had in quite some time. The fiesta chopped salad with its black bean corn salsa, roasted red peppers & onions, tortilla strips, white cheddar and spicy jalapeño dressing, chimichurri glazed grilled chicken. I ordered a side of shrimp just for variety. The spicy jalapeno dressing is simply divine. I was so enthralled by this salad that I did not come up for air until half had somehow disappeared from my plate lol. I had to tell everyone about how good it was and because I just wanted someone to experience what I already knew to be true I brought along my friend. Applebee's I have taken you for granted but no longer.

Absolute worst Applebees (possibly worst restaurant) I've ever been to. Served cold chicken breast, server could care less about her customers. Avoid at all costs.

Arrived during happy hour. The bar was busy, but the dining area was not. Good service and great food. We had Bacon Cheese burgers and Steak. The only issue we had was that the music from the bar was toooo loud, gave my wife a headache. We asked if the music could be turned down, but no luck. We will go back, but either arrive earlier or later after happy hour.

Waited 43 min for our food, waitress only came to our table once to clear our appetizer plate didn't even mention the long wait, won't talk about the food because it is what you come to expect from Applebee's, pasta was luke warm, I guess they were to lazy to even microwave my pasta after it had been sitting somewhere, not to mention after we were served, waitress didn't come back until 15 min later to ask, after having walked past us three times, enough said

This is the slowest Applebee's I've every been to, had to leave , 4 tables around us said they had to wait forever, to many other choices in that area.

Good service Carlton was attentive and polite. Food was tasty, fresh and the sirloin was tender and flavorful. Vegetables were tender, not over done. Overall atmosphere was comfortable and seating was comfortable.

I prefer this Applebee's over the one in Bowie ANYDAY. I've always had friendly servers and prompt service. Although this locations is pretty tight/small, i've never had to wait a super long time to be seated. Don't let the location fool you. Even when we came here after a event at FedEx field the service didn't slow down. Your def better off coming here than goin anywhere in BLVD or the Restaurant Park with the Ruby Tuesday.

If I could post with zero stars I would. I had the absolute worst experience last Sunday. We were greeted by a very nice host. We were waiting to be serviced for at least 20 minutes. We then let the host know and he let the bartender know. She was very busy at the bar but she did come over and take our drink orders. She was very nice. So we got our drinks and were then ready to order appetizers. The bartender came back to take our order. We noticed that there were a few employees sitting down including one of the managers. Another 30 minutes go by and we have not been assigned a waiter/waitress and we never received our food or drink order. At this point, everyone is fed up and ready to leave. Before we left, we asked to speak with the manager. The bartender called over to the "manager" who was sitting down eating. He slowly walked over to the bartender accusing her of not doing her job. He and the bartender started going back and forth. The manager refused to come to our table expecting the bartender to resolve the issue. Finally, everyone was fed up. With the manager standing there, we told the bartender to just forget it. We didn't feel like the service was worth paying for but the manager let us know that it would come out of her check. Those were the only words he spoke to us. He didn't chase us out to try to reason or anything. He just had the "I don't give a fuck" type of attitude. His name is Ron. He was so rude and nonchalant. I would never go there again. Good luck keeping loyal customers keeping Ron around.

WISH I COULD GIVE ZERO STARS I went to Applebee's Largo last night for our weekly Karaoke night and was completely appalled. I was disgusted at how my table was treated. The service was terrible, the food was subpar, and the drinks were watered down. However that wasn't even the worst part. After sending my drink back, the "manager" returned to my table with the SAME drink letting me know that the bartender JUST made this drink--as if I would change my mind on how watered down it was. My friend received his drink and had the same problem and told our waitress, who proceeded to yell at us saying "didn't I just ask you if you wanted to send it back when I was just here, I JUST ASKED YOU". She says all of this while having very suggestive hand and body motions. I then spoke to the manager about the evening and explained to him that I will not be paying for this visit. Instead of asking me what was wrong he proceeded to storm off in a rage. As I proceeded to leave the establishment I was confronted and told to pay my bill by our server, when I refused she told me that she would "beat my ass" YELLING across the restaurant at me calling me a "broke bitch". The situation then escalated when she charged at me and my group and called two of my friends "fucking faggots"--yelling "get the fuck out of here faggot". The entire time the "manager" is just standing in the room with his arms crossed SILENT, no intervening, no problem solving--silence. I refuse to support an establishment that is so disrespectful, unprofessional, rude, and nasty. I have NEVER in my life had an experience with a server like the one I had last evening. And will never be returning to Applebee's establishments.
