Description

Despite consistently warm, attentive service and helpful gluten-sensitive labeling, experiences vary widely: some diners rave about crispy salads, riblets and wings, while others report cold, undercooked or oversauced dishes, broken chips, and incorrect orders. Family-friendly with a kids’ menu, fast turnaround and amiable staff make it a convenient casual spot, but inconsistent kitchen execution leaves reliability uncertain.

The kids' mac and cheese arrived overcooked, and the plain burger we ordered ended up with pickles, tomatoes, and lettuce on it. As a result, she refused to eat it.

You can always take the kids to Applebee's and find something for them to enjoy. I really appreciated the “GS” labels on menu items indicating gluten sensitivity; it was very helpful for us.

The food is incredible, and the service is consistently friendly. I never have to wait long for my meal, and the staff are always pleasant and attentive. They truly provide an outstanding dining experience!

This was probably the worst batch of boneless wings I've ever received from them. They were cold, undercooked, and drenched in so much sauce that I could barely see the wings. To top it off, two of them were actually bone-in wings. Overall, it was a disappointing experience.
