Applebee's

Had a salad since that is safe for me. Past experience taught me well that allergies are not well accommodated

My ratings are based on what your realistic expectations should be of a place like Applebee's. Considering it's ao casual and affordable, the service & food is surprisingly good and the quality is consistent. Their staff is always incredibly well trained too. A 7oz steak is about $20 and is on par with $30 steaks. They're usually cooked to the proper doneness too. If it's over or under just let them know and they'll have the kitchen fire another one for you immediately. Everything on the menu is pretty good. They have 2 star prices but offer 3 star meals and service. Incredible value for the money. Wheelchair accessibility: Good accessibility from what I can tell.

February 16, 2024: 6 of us out for Friday night dinner at 5:30 pm including 2 kids ages 10 and 13. Extremely long wait for food and the place was almost empty when we arrived. Everyone’s dinner was fine except mine. There was nothing edible on the plate. Mashed potatoes were so cold they couldn’t melt the soft butter I put on them, green beans were not cooked (I can’t even say under cooked, as they didn’t taste like any heat had been applied to them) and steak was a chewy piece of gristle with a strange chunk of fat and gristle attached to the bottom. Gag! Our waitress was doing her best but there seemed to be no other server in the place. My son, who has managed restaurants, finally got up to go search for the manager. He reported seeing that our waitress was looking after both sides of the restaurant! I don’t know if people called in sick or this is how management staffs on a Friday. None of this was our servers fault. The kitchen and management dropped the ball. I tipped our server with cash and express instructions NOT to share that tip with anyone as she was the only one who earned it. She apologized profusely and felt badly at the service and food. Finally the “manager” came over to apologize and tell me my meal was being removed from the bill because I “didn’t like it”. Wow. I clarified that I didn’t like it because it wasn’t edible due to quality and prep. We made sure she was aware we had noticed the understaffing and in no way felt anything was our servers issue. I think I should note that we didn’t see the “manager” grab an apron and help out as she should. She also gave us a $30 gift certificate which went straight in the garbage as we won’t be back.

Been here a few times so thought I'd finally give a review! Today we came here for supper before heading over to an escape room. Everyone is super nice and provide good service. The food is really wonderful and filling! A little pricy but usually worth what you are getting. Today I tried the homestyle chicken bowl and it was amazing! Chicken strips and veggies on top of creamy mashed potatoes with lots of gravy . And I was very full after. Vegetarian options: A few good vegetarian options as well as vegan, but not a whole lot.
