Applebee’s

Great place to just stop in to have some lunch or dinner. Happy hour is amazing they have really good drink specials, and the food is pretty good too! Had their sriracha shrimp as an app and it was amazing! Definitely recommend to try

Stopped in for a quick/​late night dinner while visiting my husbands grandmother while on leave. The manager was nice enough to discount our tab for military discount. We appreciated the nice gesture. The food was great and staff was attentive.

We were on a trip to New York. It was getting late and we were tired so we wanted a place to have a nice meal and head to our hotel for the night. On this trip I decided to eat healthier which included no meats. The menu selection was huge but there were only a handful of foods to choose from. Choices were salmon or fish and chips as far as non meat items unless we wanted a salad or soup. Three of us ordered the salmon entrée which included spinach greens and redskin potatoes. The salmon was the only good thing on the plate. The spinach looked wilted on all 3 of our plates. The redskin potatoes were cold. We decided to eat them but left the spinach greens on the plates. For such a well known chain, we were disappointed in our choices for healthier eating individuals and vegetarians. Many other restaurants offer much better selections. I’d suggest a menu adjustment for patrons who are trying to choose healthier diets.
Dessert was delicious. Brownie and ice cream. A great choice to satisfy a sweet tooth and a much better ending to a so-​so dinner.
The waitress was nice and attentive but we walked out a bit disappointed from the slim selection and wilted spinach and cold potatoes.

My scathing Applebee’s review:
They asked us if a table in the bar area was okay. After we were seated, we were offered a booster seat not a high chair for a 20 lb toddler. When we got the booster, the strap didn’t connect to the other side. It wasn’t safe so I didn’t use it. I asked for a new table as the high chairs don’t reach the table and the hostess told me it wouldn’t work for the server. I just shook my head and walked away. The server brought our food and never filled out drinks. The manager would have been nice to talk to, but he talked to the table at the end for 20 minutes and never asked us how we were doing. The baby ate her dinner sitting on my lap, and I ate with one hand. It was ridiculous. I left as soon as I was finished and the clueless waitress didn’t even ask she came with the check and only my husband was at the table.

If you’re looking for a place that is local and has good food try this Applebee’s. When I’m in the area I usually stop by for some good food and some lemonade. The atmosphere is sports and family oriented. The service was excellent. If you’re with a group of friends there are many 2-​for-​1 specials. The food is hot and the drinks are cold. I have not been disappointed yet.

Love the drink, wings and service.

Just a normal experience at your regular chain restaurant nothing horrible or out of the ordinary fantastic.
Good to grab a bit after a day of shopping.

Gaross. No wonder we stopped going to these kinds of places a decade ago.
At least the bartender gave me a drink on the house.

Great food, service was A+. Restaurant appeared clean and tidy, typical Applebee’s/chain restaurant but the dining experience was pleasurable.

This is a really weird Applebees. We went on a Friday night, and I swear I’ve never seen a fuller Applebee’s. It is as if the entire town goes there on the weekends. Why? People, it is Applebees. I could not figure it out. The food is only so-​so. The wait staff was nice, however.

We have a great number of decent meals at the Johnstown Applebee’s. We rarely eat in the restaurant, but frequently order Carside To Go. Quality is fairly consistent and we are not often disappointed. We do not have a lot of good take out options in the area. But, Applebee’s gets the job done.

There are quite a few things that I have to say about Apple Bee’s so I will list them.
Good–
550 calorie dinners are yummy, I recommend the island shrimp and rice dish.
The prices are reasonable.
They have yummy Lemonade.
The wait staff have always been more than pleasant.
Bad–
Do not go on a night when they have karaōke. Dear God! Your ears will die a little.
They always mess up at least one thing when you get the take away food.
The atmosphere is tacky (just my opinion).

The Best «Perfect Margarita» in the universe no kidding who would a thought. Great food for a great price.

The food is ok here. I enjoy the pasta and the Calamari. They have good food specials at the bar during happy hour.
Let it be said that I saw them not serve a 65 year old man drinks because he did not have his ID.
One has to wonder what gang of monkey’s trained the crowd of idiots that run the bar. I mean like an old man with white hair and no teethe that is retired. Give me a break.
They get 3 stars for food and their convenient location. They should get 5 stars for stupidity.

I will say that I have not had a problem with the food. It is pretty much like every other Applebees. They finally do have something other than broccoli for a vegetable, which brings it from a 2-​star to a 3-​star.
The only issue is service. On several occasions I have had great service, but most of the time, I get stuck with people who could care less that you ran out of something to drink 10 minutes ago or never come by to see if things are Ok.
The drive-​up take-​out experience I had was great, though! I called and had the food ready in 10 minutes. As soon as I pulled up, they came right out with my dinner. It’s a really great service!

When Applebee’s first came to the Johnstown area, it was sadly exciting. It was something new and actually in our county and the food was not too bad. It felt almost like leaving Fulton County by walking in the doors. Now it seems that after a short period of time of being in Fulton County, Applebee’s has lost its magic. The food is so so, if you can ever get your steak cooked right, let me know. Even if you know the waitstaff, you might not get your order the way you wanted it. They get really confused if you go there on your birthday:
Me– «It is my birthday, I would like the triple chocolate meltdown.»
Bill the waiter– «But that is not the free birthday dessert.»
Me– «I don’t care, I want the triple chocolate meltdown.»
Bill the waiter-«But that is not the free birthday dessert???»
Me– «Yes, I know, I don’t want the free dessert. I want a triple chocolate meltdown.»
Bill the waiter-«ummmm ok?»
Was that really so hard to understand? It was my flippin’ birthday. Do I not get to pick my dessert on my birthday even if I am willing to pay for it? Oye vey!
Let’s just say my dad doesn’t call them Crapplebee’s for nothing! The reason I give them 3 stars instead of 2 is the Triple Chocolate Meltdown.
