My dad wanted to eat steak so we went there. We got 1⁄3 of a normal sized steak for $ 12. He ordered medium rare and got a medium well done. Same with my husband and mom… not much steak!

I have the Parmesan steak with shrimp scampi on top bake potato and veggies. Baked potato was undercooked, The steak was overcooked, The steak was tough i as shoe leather, veggies were barely warm, and the shrimp had no taste at all. Be forewarned. Save your money…

Double Grey Goose and Soda is only $ 7.50, a bargain compared to where I am from! I had the same Green Goddess salad two nights in a row, and last night it was better. Tonight the cook skimped on the toppings and there was very little dressing on the lettuce making it a little dry. It wasn’t bad, but I expected some consistency. He probably saved me 200 calories, and for that I thank him. The servers at the bar are friendly. I would have liked to know that appetizers are half price after 9pm, though. Overall, it was a good and I liked that it was walking distance from my hotel.

I’ve been here a few times, and generally the experience is about the same. It’s easily found off the highway, there is plenty of parking, and the hostess is fairly responsive to get you seated right away. I came here on a Sunday night with my dad. Immediately we are seated, and soon enough our waitress comes by for our drink orders. Just plain waters for the both of us. The menu has stayed the same, but they do offer new stuff on special, or whatever is advertised at the time on TV. I ordered the double barrel 4 oz steaks with mashed potatoes. My dad got the Asian Shrimp Salad. Our waitress was timely and receptive to our time looking at the menu and getting the order in. Thumbs up in that regard. Our food only took about 15 minutes, which is pretty good for any place. I was disappointed that my food did not come out«sizzling» like in their ads. My meal was served on a hot plate with mashed potatoes on one half, and 2 medium rare steaks on the side. Both were cooked perfectly surprisingly. Most the time I order MR is because any place generally cooks them a touch too long, so it gives room for some error. They were topped with caramelized onions, red peppers and mushroom. Overall no issues, and they were seasoned well. Small complaint would be there was a bit of fat that was annoying to cut through. My dad got his, and it looked good. About 3 – 4 minutes into eating, he complained that the hot plate had a lot of rust on it. To confirm it, I got his steak knife and started to scratch in it. It was indeed rust and not just burnt food on it. It took a while to get one of the wait staff to get our attention and report my dads displeasure. The manager came by to assure us that in 5 minutes, my dad should get a new plate. He was also aware of it, and claimed to have one of the staff throw it out and not use it. Well first off, if you’re the manager, it’s your executive decision, so allowing your employee to get rid of it or not, is not a wise one. Besides that point, he did hold his promise and brought out a new«sizzling» hot plate of his food in 5 minutes. He apologized and I respect that he took the time to correct it and not argue with the customer. When we finished our meals, I was pleased to find out that my dad’s meal was on the house. That’s great customer service and taking care of us. A discounted rate would have sufficed, but they went the extra mile. I’ll give them the 4th star for that, otherwise it would be just an average 3 out of 5.

YUCK!!! I know there’s not much around in Newton Kansas, but I would have rather gone to Taco Bell or something. One of the worst restaurant meals I’ve had in a LONG time. We got the artichoke dip for an appetizer which actually was pretty good, but it went downhill from there. My brother and I both got steaks served with different toppings and both of them were really really tough and had an unusual flavor for steak. I used to love getting a steak at Applebees, but in the past few years, the quality of their meat has vastly degraded to the point where I can’t hardly even eat it. I felt like I was in a foreign country and they had duped me into eating donkey meat or something. I never send food back at a restaurant, but my brother and I both sent ours back and ordered the fiesta Lime chicken which wasn’t much better than the steak we started with. I buy frozen chicken breasts at home to grill all the time and they’re cheap and usually come out pretty tasty, so I’m not sure how they managed to screw up grilled chicken, but it was pretty bad. My brother seemed to think his was undercooked and mine had a really odd texture to it. The sauce they put on it was kind of gross also. The waitstaff was very polite and our server tried to make things right, but the kitchen just couldn’t deliver. In my opinion they have cheaped out on the ingredients to keep their menu prices down, but in the process they turn out food that’s so bad that I don’t think I’ll ever eat there again. Double Yuck!

You’re in Kansas, you need to adjust expectations. Overall this place is decent. The wait staff is always very nice and helpful; however, at the end of the day the food is still mediocre at best. Portions are large and the food capitalizes on the fact that the human body craves fat & salt. Not bad for a large chain and given the selection of restaurants in Newton, this one will remain in the rotation.

I give this location Applebees 5 stars only because we were in a HUGE hurry to catch our flight and didnt want fast food. So we very learily chose to stop here thinking… «MISTAKE, its so crowded… we’ll be late!» But we did. There were 5 in our group and as soon as we sat and she came for our drink orders, we gave her our meal order. They had our meals to us and HOT with in 10 minutes! We could not believe it! The place was packed out too. This location is in the middle of Farmsville and every hungry farmer and their wife and kid was there. Bathrooms…eh. Restraunt clean… o.k. Food…yum. We will stop again just because they were so quick and we know the menu.

In most places, Applebee’s would be at the bottom of my list of places to go, but this is not like most places. This is Newton, Kansas, where the bleak culinary landscape consists mostly of fast food franchises, bad pizza joints, and mediocre independent restaurants. Applebee’s is one of the few decent choices, which given the low bar is not exactly a huge compliment. Like any Applebee’s, the food is pretty middle of the road, and is hard to distinguish from other middle of the road franchise restaurants like Chili’s, TGI Friday’s or Ruby Tuesday’s. The service level beats most local restaurants hands down, but this location has been inconsistent at times, but always friendly. I don’t think one of my favorite dishes, Sizzling Fajita’s has actually ever been«sizzling» when it reached the table. Much of the food is not exactly a model for healthy living, but I give them credit for their nine Weight Watcher’s selections, and I have actually found the Cajun Lime Tilapia to be delicious, healthy and well prepared. The prices are modest and a current promotion of $ 0.99 kids meals on Tuesday and Thursday’s makes for an exceptional bargain for those with kids.
