Applebee's - Statesville

If you find yourself in the area, make sure to stop by. I always prefer sitting at the bar because the bartenders are incredibly friendly and quick to notice you—something quite rare these days. Today, I ordered a half rack of ribs, but they arrived cold. However, the issue was quickly resolved. The manager came out, apologized, and assured me that a new order was on the way. I appreciated that she genuinely cared about making the customer happy, which is a refreshing experience. I'll definitely keep coming back here. The service is consistently excellent, and the ribs that were served to me afterward were hot and delicious. This is truly a great establishment.

We chose this restaurant because the wait times at others were too long, and we were pleasantly surprised. We were seated quickly, and our server was friendly and attentive. We ordered the bacon burger and the chicken cheese bacon sandwich. The chicken sandwich ended up being phenomenal—it was our favorite and totally exceeded our expectations. There was a promotion to add wings for just $1, which was a good deal, although we weren't fans of the boneless wings.

The staff were very friendly and efficient. The food was served hot and full of flavor.

It's my daughter's 21st birthday and she requested to go to a similar restaurant also in Statesville, I call and reserve a table for 6:30 and even get a confirmation text. When some of our party arrives they know nothing about it, barely acknowledge we're there. My son calls Applebee's and they can seat us now, we drive up the street and WOW what a difference. We were lucky enough to have Zari as our server. She didn't even blink when we went in. She waited on our party of 15 like we were family and friends , our food was exceptional and the drinks were never empty!! Thanks for helping make her 21st birthday memorable and fun!!!

Food was great and our waitress was so sweet. I got the Classic Bacon Cheeseburger. They made it into a lettuce wrap for me. It was a very good tasting burger.
