What Reanna Cormier doesn't like about Applebee's Grill:
We have been coming to Applebee's for years and I can honestly say since COVID happened the attentiveness went down the drain. The waitress failed to put in my drink order in. We had to use napkins as plates for the appetizers. The only time we get excited customer service is when Joe is our server View all feedback. What Lali C likes about Applebee's Grill:
The hostess assisted me in entering my email into the computer, and I received a complimentary gift. My server had over 25 years of experience. I can't say enough good things about... View all feedback.

I had a great experience at this restaurant, even though I arrived late in the evening and close to closing time. The food and service were both excellent.

The restaurant is good, but it really needs a makeover. I have been coming here for a long time and I hope they decide to get rid of the carpets.

Really nice and cozy restaurant. Their mango shake is the best I've ever had. They've also got great steak and an amazing menu.

Applebee's presents a dining experience that seems to oscillate between excellence and disappointment. While some patrons rave about attentive service and cleanliness, others lament the decline in quality post-COVID, citing issues like neglectful waitstaff and outdated decor. The ambiance can be excessively loud, with some describing it as reminiscent of the 1970s, while food offerings, particularly the much-anticipated all-you-can-eat wings, disappoint in variety. Despite these challenges, dedicated servers often shine, turning around potential fiascos into memorable outings—suggesting that a great team can elevate even the most lackluster dining experiences.

The wing special on Tuesdays and Thursdays is excellent. The wings are delicious and the price is unbeatable. The service is always exceptional.

The food and service were great, but the pay-at-table terminals were not functioning. I prefer not to have my card leave my sight.

I was not impressed with this restaurant. It was much louder than I anticipated and had a dated appearance, seemingly unchanged since the 1970s. The carpet was...

I waited for 45 minutes in a nearly empty restaurant before finally being served. When my plate and fork arrived, they were dirty with old food crust.
