Applebee’s

I had the hamburger quesadilla with fries. Talk about biting into a little bit of heaven. The sauce is tasty and the burger just big enough to satisfy your hunger. I am glad the waitress recommended it. I would go back anytime. Service good and the establishment was clean and not crowded. Plenty of flat screen TVs to keep u entertained.

Came late in the evening on a weeknight. Hostess and servers all friendly. Seated immediately and waiter showed up shortly after. Took our orders and we received food in about 10 – 15 min. I ordered steak and husband ordered riblets. Food was as expected and cooked to order. :)
Four stars instead of five because the staff were yelling to each other across the restaurant (prob because it was less crowded) but still a bit unnerving this late at night to someone with five kids at home who is out for a quiet date night with hubby. Would come back if we were in the area though.

This was my third time there. I was hoping for improvement from previous two visits but I was sadly disappointed. Won’t go again. Nothing satisfying about the meal. Service is slow, with no follow up on quality of meal. Restaurant layout is bad, noisy, no lobby area. All three visits there we had problems with meals either wrong items delivered, poor food quality (cold or lacking ingredients, tasted bad). I have had great meals at other Applebee’s but not here. Don’t expect much if you go to the Cullman establishment.

Been there twice since they opened. First visit they were on the busy side and forgot to bring my daughters food. Ruins my meal when I have to try to hunt down a server to ask twice where her food was and deal with a hungry grouchy kid. Our appetizers came before the main and both were good. Service was a bit slow. Server was pleasant.
Second visit it was not busy at all. Ordered an appetizer and didn’t get it until after our mains came and only after asking where it was. Took a long time to get the app after asking where it was. Got the app without any sauce, had to wait for server to reappear to ask for sauce and took about 10 minutes to get some ranch dressing after that. Our mains were just ok. I am not impressed with this Applebee’s. The service was slow however the servers are pleasant. I like Applebee’s overall but not in a big rush to go back to this one.

The good is typical but the staff is great. I ho and with while sitting at the bar. They are so personable and attentive. They have a great happy hour.
