Description

Applebee's in Morganton delivers a mixed dining experience that varies considerably among patrons. While many guests praise the attentive service and friendly staff, including standout servers like McKenzie and Amber, food quality remains a point of contention. Diners appreciate dishes like the Fiesta Lime Chicken and Bourbon Street Chicken but report inconsistent preparation, with undercooked steaks and overcooked sides. Drink options have drawn criticism for excessive ice, diluting flavor. Although some encountered issues with management and food quality, overall enthusiasm suggests that the restaurant strives to provide a pleasant atmosphere worth revisiting.

The entire meal was awful. The steak was undercooked, and the broccoli appeared to have some sort of debris in it. I paid $48 for a meal that I couldn't even eat. Unfortunately, I had no success discussing the issue with the staff.

I ordered the combo platter. The mozzarella sticks were not very warm, more on the cold side. The server was friendly and accommodating.

We had a bad experience at Applebee's in Morganton. We went there to pass the time and have a snack. I ordered the waffle fries with liquid cheese, but the cheese was terrible. When I sent it back, the waiter argued with me before taking it to the kitchen without asking if I wanted something else. The manager later came by to argue with me and mentioned that they sell a lot of them. She eventually removed it from the bill, but only after some discussion.
