Applebee's Grill + Bar — Restaurant in Alliance

If bland had a home, this would be it. Nothing thrilling. These people go to work, do their job and go home. Just normal everyday people trying to get through a work day, which is completely fine, but it also makes for some subpar dishes.

I've been inside this place once. The floors were sticky and so was the table, but it wasn't really a big deal to me. The waitress was wonderfully normal. Not rude, or overly nice, just a tired looking woman trying to make it in this economy.

The food is really what's off-putting about this place. The meals are small in comparison to any other similar place I've been too. The fries are very bland, I'm not sure if they season them?

I don't know what compelled me to order from here after going there in person, but I just had a whim and followed it. The main meal I ordered, was irrelevant. Just blah, edible, nothing impressive, but the dessert! Oh my god. The dessert was an abomination.

I ordered the Brownie with hot fudge and ice cream. The pic online was just amazing (see attached pic). I never thought I'd be catfished by a dessert, but the gods of Applebee's Grill have rose to the challenge.

This thing is tiny. Like...two bites tiny (see pic; Gatorade cap for scale) And, if I'm being honest, it was only like $3 or something, so I could get over the size of it, but then I bit into it....or, at least, I tried to. Thing was hard as virgin in a strip club. I tried to break it in half with my hands...no dice. I tried to cut it. Nope. I stabbed at it repeatedly and managed to break off a small chocolate flake. It tasted like disappointment and crushed dreams.

If you're looking for mediocrity, this is the place for you, but for the love of everything holy, DO NOT GET...

I have visited this establishment on several occasions. This was by far the worst ever. The establishment was not busy, maybe 10 other tables occupied and a gentleman at the bar. The staff was more interested in talking with this gentleman and using very vulgar language. The one girl was using the F word repeatedly and upset that she received a speeding ticket for going 20 miles over the speed limit. Our food took over an hour to get to us. My meal had obviously sat under a heat lamp for some time. It was all dried out and inedible. My daughter's burger was cold. The waitress plopped our food down on our table and walked away. Refused to stop at our table for some time. When she did, I told her and was told the manager would come see me. The manager came out and spoke with us but was very flat and not friendly at all. She grabbed my plate and said she would take care of it. She did ask of I wanted anything else but you could tell she didnt want to be bothered by me or my family. I told her no I did not want anything else because everyone else was about done eating and didnt want to have to wait another hour to get something else. She said ok and walked away. Several others were complaining and upset as well. One gentleman was walking around trying to get someone to help him and no one would pay him any attention!! Just sad!! They need better management or better training or...

The food was exactly what I expected from Applebees, ok quality, not bad but not great…the service was slow to even acknowledge we were there and we went at a slow hour of the day, they were not that busy…that being said, server Stevie B was great! She really helped this rating, by being extremely attentive to drinks, having a smile on her face, being polite, and very quick as she dealt with many tables at once. She definitely deserves a promotion or a raise.

I went again and the waitress was rude, food took forever, we didn’t get what we wanted because the waitress got confused, and they ran out of lemonade when that’s what I ordered and it’s the only drink I like there so I got water for the rest of my meal and with no price reduction. The waitress has no manners, and the host forgot our silverware, when we asked for silverware our waiter forgot twice…I tried to be reasonable since they were busy, but at the end of the day bad service is bad service…I was going to get dessert but felt we had been there too long already so they lost money due to the bad service (also other people who got in after us got the same food as us and got their food first, so I’m not even being a Karen about this, and when they’re busy I expect a wait, but my issue is how rude and forgetful the...
