Applebee’s

This was one do may favorite places. Don’t know happened lately. The food the service we horible

Service friendly. Food just meh. Wouldnt walk across the street for it. My entrée was not prepared properly. The other entrée ordered just didnt taste good. Manager offered free dessert to make amends.

I have been here a few times without complaint but this will probably be my final visit. My boyfriend and I decided to order our appetizer at the same time as the meal but expected an appropriate wait time so we could enjoy our appetizer. We had about 1 minute before our main dish was delivered. Maybe that’s something we should have specified but I’m pretty sure people do that all the time. Not only was the meal out too quickly but was definitely inedible. I had ordered a 3 cheese shrimp penne and for some reason it tasted like beer. I am not absolutely positive but I’m pretty sure there’s no beer in the ingredients. The noodles were way overcooked and there was barely sauce to be found. Possibly it was sucked up from the overcooked noodles? Also a side complaint… Why is it that they offer cherry Pepsi but it tastes like Pepsi with artificial cherry juice squeezed in after. I know cherry Pepsi is artificial to begin with but it tasted like children’s candy made into liquid form was spritzed in there. Overall extremely disappointed. Maybe it was just a bad night or bad cook but based on prior reviews this location of Applebee’s isn’t the greatest…

Ok service. Bad food! Food was cold and inedible! Won’t go back! Would not recommend this place at all!

Our service was ok but the food, all three of our meals were not satisfactory at all. I did complain and they will be sending vouchers out to me that I will probly not even use because I will never go back. Not good Applebee’s not good. Food was cold flavorless and disquieting. Save yourself the time and drive past this Applebee’s location.

Service is decent, food is god awful. I have never enjoyed a meal at the North Huntingdon Applebee’s. The place is constantly hiring, which means management is terrible or it’s an awful place to work. They recently changed their menu and pissed off a lot of customers. I’ve been to this location 5 times and have never enjoyed any entrée or appetizer. I’ve tried salads, pasta, burgers, etc. It’s either overcooked, undercooked, or too bland. Tonight was particularly terrible, I felt bad because the server was so good and genuinely cared, but everyone’s meal was awful. Save your money, Wendy’s is better than this place.

Been there a couple of times trying to give this location a chance. Food has been bad all visits. Got the meatball appetizer last night. The meatballs were old, dried up and reheated. They were visibly gross as well. Was very concerned that any wait staff would brig this to the table. I think last night will be our last visit there.

We’ve been there about five times since it opened in N. Huntingdon — with each time hoping the service/​food would get better. But sadly, it never did. I think every single time there has been some sort of issue with the order (wrong item, etc.) Not to mention, it is ALWAYS so busy there. (Honestly, I can’t see why.) There are plenty of places with better food and service — where you don’t have to wait 30 minutes for a table.

This Applebee’s is nice, good size. Always busy during dinner. I’d come for their happy hour! great deals on food and drinks! The staff is ok. Management is scary bad

We just love this Applebee’s location! The food is always fast, hot and delicious and the service is always great. If you can’t get a table. Sit at the bar. Our favorite bartender is Megen aka megsta! She makes the best perfect margarita !

We are becoming quite the regulars here! Its so refreshing to get off work and have somewhere to look forward to going to get the same service we strive to give at our jobs ! Big thanks to Jane our server tonight, great suggestions and great personality :-)

Absolutely, delightful experience. My husband and I sat at the bar to watch the USA soccer game. The bartender was inviting and knowledgable. Our drinks never went empty. The appetizers came out promptly as well as our meal. Most chain restaurants I expect a wait for our meals; regardless of the restaurant being packed, we got our meals within 20 minutes of being seated. We even had time for dessert.

Ate here Once a few years ago after going to the movies in Robinson Twp., Pit. PA. My brother and I both got Sick !!
We haven’t been back since !

I have been to Applebee’s in both Mount Pleasant and Monroeville a few times in the past. The food and service has always been satisfactory. When the new Applebee’s opened up in Irwin, I thought that it was a nice addition, since Irwin is littered with fast food restaurants and sub-​par chains.
My husband and I have attempted to go to the new Applebee’s on a few occasions, however, it has always been so crowded and we refuse to wait. And I’m talking it’s busy whether it’s Friday night or a Wednesday around 8… doesn’t matter, always busy when we go. Since we refused to wait to eat, we’ve always gone elsewhere…
Fortunately, this past Saturday, I was out shopping with my mom and it was early afternoon…1:30ish. Applebee’s looked like it wasn’t as crowded as usual, so we decided to give it a try.
We did the 2 or $ 20 deal and got the Spinach Artichoke dip for our appetizer. We both had the ‘new’ Chicken and Shrimp Tequila Tango. Let’s just say that this was the first time I was «wowed’ by this place. The dip was delicious, of course. And I was surprised at how yummy our meals were. They consisted of one piece of grilled chicken, grilled shrimp, mexican rice, and sauteed peppers and onions. There is also a avocado /​ranch sauce that was very good.
The other shocker here was the service… our waitress, Megan, was friendly and efficient. The manager also came over to ask how our meals are and I told him that Megan was an excellent waitress. He agreed, saying «Yeah, Megan’s the best.» I asked the manager for a to-​go cup for my drink, which he got for me instead of pawning it off on the waitress.
The place was still sorta busy, but we didn’t have to wait. Bathrooms and restaurant were surprisingly clean for the just-​after-​lunch crowd. Case in point, there was a couple sitting across from us with a young child (thank goodness they left only a few minutes after we arrived. It was awkward because the mother sat sideways with the baby so she was literally five feet away from me and looking directly at me). At any rate, they left a huge mess and a lot of food spilled on the floor, which is gross, baby or not. Before I knew it, someone had come to bus the table and cleaned up the mess of the floor… within literally two minutes. I was so thrilled to see that… lots of places would have left it there and I would have been grossed out.
Good food, great service, clean digs! Bravo Applebee’s!

With this being the only local chain that keeps their menu fresh and up to date it is busy with a long wait during the evening and weekends. Food is good service has been above average with one exception which is the hostess station. The youngsters at the hostess station are not very attentive they consistently take elderly or visibly handicapped guests to hightops then are disgusted when customers ask for more suitable accommodations. Been to this location a good bit due to convenience.

Normally, I am not a fan or chains, but I am going to give this place a good review because of it’s location in Irwin. There are not many places like this at all in Irwin and I give them props for being the first to land in the town.
It is a normal Applebee’s as you would expect so your average chain restaurant, but for a town full of fast food and sit down restaurants like Denny’s, I would say that this is a welcome addition.

«Horrible service. Food seemed to be doused in salt! Not worth the wait at all.»

At this time, this is the only full service, chain restaurant in the area. Without competition, there is always a wait of at least 30 minutes for dinner on the weekends. Curbside take-​out is available, but call ahead seating is not. Since the place is newly opened, it is overstaffed, so you should not experience a noticeable wait for drinks, extra dressing, or food.
On this particular Saturday evening visit, we were seated at a table in the bar area (families with children were also being seated in the same area, so be sure to request the dining area if that is your preference). All televisions were set on the NFL playoff game or NHL hockey. Although we didn’t order alcohol, there were drink specials and patrons were quickly being served since there were three bartenders. And for the ladies, there are hooks under the bar for your purses!
Our server greeted us immediately. She was knowledgeable about the menu, and was attentive without hovering. Dinner for two will likely be at least $ 30 since most entrée salads and sandwiches are priced around $ 10. Soda (pepsi products) and iced tea are $ 2.39 each. Adding a side salad to your meal will cost $ 2.99 extra since it cannot be substituted for a side order.
We started our meal with chips and salsa ($ 2.99) which are comparable to Chili’s in flavor. The salsa is a medium heat. The portion size is small, but you can get refills.
For my entrée, I ordered a chopped chicken fiesta salad ($ 9.49) with dressing on the side. The salad was flavorful and included grilled chicken, shredded cheese, pico de gallo, and tortilla strips. The salad portion was controlled: the greens barely covered the dinner plate and were not piled high. My fiancé ordered a cowboy burger ($ 9.29) which included lettuce, tomato, fried onion straws, and bacon. Instead of a specific temperature, our server asked him if he wanted pink or no pink, and the burger came out perfectly cooked. The burger included a side order (about a dozen) french fries.
Overall, a pleasant dining experience. When competition does arrive, I can foresee an adjustment of price and/​or portion size for this Applebee’s.

Oh my delicious! I have been waiting for this Applebee’s to open for a couple months now, and I can say with confidence that it is delicious.
The atmosphere and interior is beautiful and very welcoming. We were here for the grand opening, so the place was packed, but I don’t expect anything less after having such a delicious meal.
We got the boneless wings appetizers and they were delicious; more than enough to share. The meals were excellent too. My dad’s burger was pretty huge, and the toppings on the bourbon burger made it definitely something different and worth trying. My mother’s salad was something that any omnivore or carnivore would love. Lots of greens, plus some fruits, nuts, and chicken to top it off. My chicken portabella was also something rather delicious. I am a huge onion fan, so I was in love with the major piling of chopped goodies.
Even if you are looking for a place just to grab some drinks, this could be a great find. All of us tried various items from the beverage menu: mixed drinks, specialties, and even wine. Everyone was pleasantly satisfied. They don’t skimp on the alcohol either.
All in all, I would say I am very happy with our first experience, and my expectation of this place were completely fulfilled. The only question is, when will I be going back, adn will I be able to not order the same thing?
