Applebee's Grill - Lompoc

The wait staff was wonderful considering we got a table that dumped our drinks onto my wife. We had to take it to go (she got really wet) I asked the Manager for a discount. She said all I was getting was the senior discount we should get anyway. I said that sucks and she, the Manager, tried to pull the bag of food out of my hand. I went without being able to give my 'stars ' to the wait staff only.

Place is absolute garbage. Update: still garbage. And stop adding extra ingredients to your salads and just make them with what is listed on the menu.

Food was okay, drinks were excellent, but the service was sub par. 3 people ordered, my order and a side if Mac and cheese came out 1st, without the other two entrees. The rib platter came out, which they admitted they forgot, then we had to remind the server of our 3rd order that was still missing and she had forgotten too. Then the 3rd came out immediately, so we suspect we got someone else's order. Food was warm, but everything seemed slightly over cooked or just under the heat lamp too long. Not enough to complain or be inedible, but just enough to notice.Will go back. Will update my review if this turns out to be a fluke/bad night, which isn't good to have on a Friday night.

Food was pretty blah, and service was even worse. Restaurant was dead maybe 4 tables including myself, and servers were not nice or helpful.

My main staple here is always the riblets and this meal kept up the tradition. The riblets were cooked perfectly and the sauce was evenly distributed. I can't say I care too much for their ceaser salad though as it was bland. The service was excellent and they took care of our needs.
