Applebee's Grill + Bar

For starters, several half-priced apps after 9 — win! I ordered the Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp for an entree, and I have to say that it was a pleasant surprise; the meal came to the table on a sizzling-hot skillet and proved to be a tasty selection. The service was a bit slow (there didn't seem to be any real sense of urgency nor attentiveness), but the waiter was friendly and polite when he did interact with our table. I wish there was a way to give half stars because I feel as if the experience was more deserving of a 3.5. EDIT: I changed my rating to 4-stars. The experience, overall, was better than I had expected from an Applebee's. Myself & the company with me all enjoyed our food and had no major issues (the service was slow but in no way was it the end of the world). The initial 3 stars that I gave felt too critical after seeing how the restaurant responded, and I certainly appreciate the response — especially one that came so quickly following my review. 4 is certainly the more appropriate rating to give here as most of the experience was above being just average.

Very good experience! I will be back again. To give credit when due, Brendon is definitely an asset to this location. It's obvious he takes pride in his work & that's almost impossible to find in servers anymore. When you do find it, your tip should reflect your appreciation!
