Applebee's Grill + Bar - reviews,open hours,photo spots, things to do | WanderBoat AI Trip Planner

We hadn't been to an Applebee's in well over a year, because the food is always just mediocre and the service usually is horrible. With no more late night dining options in our town we recently had to resort to revisiting our local Applebee's. The menu was pretty good, with lots of options of the usual kind (burgers, chicken, pasta, salads). We ordered the pretzel sticks with cheese dipping sauce (a bit over done but generous with the 2 dipping sauces so that was a plus!) and as and entree I ordered the Loaded Steak Fajita. The steak was a tad tough and would benefit from being cut thinner, lots of veggies but way too many onions. Overall it was decent. My husband got the Whiskey Bacon Burger and said it was quite tasty, with a nice size side of fries (though they could use a bit of seasoning to make them more interesting). For dessert we tried the amazing Apple Fritter, which was the star of the meal in my opinion! Definitely leave room for it! The highlight of the visit though was our waitress Amanda. Friendly, fast, there when we needed her but not hovering, quick with the refills. We chatted with the manager after our meal and told him to hold on to her! Hopefully we now have a new late night meal option, as long as the current manager and Amanda stay on!

The service was wonderful, but the food gets worse and worse each time I go.! Very disappointing. I ordered the spinach artichoke dip as an appetizer. It tasted like the cheap Tostitos spinach dip in a jar that was reheated. Since it was after 9pm, I decided to order from the 1/2 price app menu and ended up getting a quesadilla as well. This chicken quesdilla was absolutely horrible. No seasonings, the chicken was dry, and there was nothing to dip it in. No sour cream, no cheese sauce. The "salsa" that came with it was not evem salsa. It tasted like tomato paste with a few onions thrown in. I couldn't even tell what the salsa verde was even made of. That tasted like pureed spinach leaves. The strawberry mucho margarita was pretty decent, but not sure if I would pay the price for it again.

We visited as a party of 6 on a Saturday night. It was crowded but the wait was not too bad. About 25 minutes. The waitress was very busy so she was a little slow getting drink refills. We didn't get our food until 75 minutes after we were seated. Most of our meals were fine. They only thing that was incorrect was the Tuscan Shrimp Salad that I got. It didn't have the edamame or bruschetta tomatoes but it did have sliced almonds that were so crushed up they looked like they were from the bottom of the barrel. The manager tried to tell me that it was supposed to have nuts in it. It is not on the menu and I get that salad all the time and it has never had nuts. My son got the endless wings but it took so long to get a refill that we told them to forget about it.

I regret eating here, as my boyfriend and I got food poisoning. I'm talking about rounds of diarrhea until there was nothing in my system. We suspect it was the green beans as we ordered the same food with that exception, and he only had an upset stomach. I ordered 6oz sirloin medium rare, side of broccoli and green beans and shared an order of onion rings as an appetizer. Service was fine. Nothing special. Atmosphere was ruined when a boys baseball team showed up at 10pm and the kids were talking loudly. We were seated right next to them and couldn't hear each other and had to raise our own voices.

Came here on Veterans Day they were packed but the staff was extremely efficient friendly and handled all the business so smoothly that I was very impressed. Wait was only 10 minutes. It was also very nice the way they updated me on the wait with my cell. So A-line stake and classic Burger were excellent as was our waitress Lexi . I recommend you ask for her. Definitely recommend Applebee's at this location on 135 in Greenwood. Thank you Applebee's for recognizing veterans today.
