Applebee’s

Applebees in general is going down hill. This particular one, with it’s less than fresh ingredients (the salads) and ingredients that don’t resemble what they’re portrayed on the menu at all. Was there yesterday, and our appetizers and meals were delivered at the same time, leading to the meal getting cold by the time we got around to it. Watch their takeout… they will try to pull a fast one, and give you half the portion because it’s coming to you in a bag where you don’t normally immediately check it. I bought the sirloin stir fry for my husband for takeout when I was eating in the restaurant, and it had about 1 cup of rice, and two pieces of vegetables, no wontons and no scallions. The app (the one you download) they have also has higher prices than on the menu in the restaurant.

I as a chef love to stop in here .I find the service excellent and the food delicious. Last night I had the macaroni and cheese and found it delightful I highly suggest a stop in. Basic good food and service for s good price Who knew

I came here after Outlet shopping without much expectations, as this is a chain restaurant. However, the service was EXCEPTIONALLY bad. When we asked our waitress if the appetizers were half off, she looked at us, rolled her eyes and said, «Uh, that’s why everybody’s here.» (I KID YOU NOT) Pointing to the people sitting in the restaurant. She took our orders after repeating them and came back with boneless instead of bone in wings. We politely pointed out that she had gotten our order wrong and she admitted it, «Yes, I’ll take this back and have them make you bone in wings.» 20 minutes later, after we had already finished our meal and the wings were still not up, we asked to cancel the order and get the check instead. «Well, I already put it in the system. I can pack the wings for you in the back and you can take it to go.» she responded matter of factly. The look she gave us was as if she just didn’t want to be there. She came back 10 minutes later with our wings without an apology whatsoever for making us wait so long.
I have never paid a bill without tipping and this was my first. Applebees shouldn’t hire teenagers. The service was terrible and we got a stuck up teenage waitress with an attitude. If possible, I would give this place 0 stars.

Came here hoping for a decent meal after shopping at the outlets. On 4÷3÷16 I ordered a brunch burger and asked for the burger to be well done. When my food came out, I took a bite of the burger and to my disgust it was all pink inside. I called the waiter over and told him I wanted my burger well-​done. He then looks at The burger with all the pink inside and says to me that’s not well done? What the hell does it look like? So he took the plate to the back and brought it back out another 20 minutes later. By this time my party of three have finished eating already while I was just going to start. When I bit into the burger for the second time it still was not well done. I ate half of a burger and took the other half home. I went to the restaurant on Sunday later that night I threw up and today is Tuesday morning and I’m still having stomach pains, I’m pretty sure I got FOOD POISONING. I’m experiencing sharp upper stomach pains. The waiter needs more training, when bringing drinks to the table and other foods you don’t reach over other people’s plate. My waiter was a white Male with bluish eyes he may have been in his 30s. If you get him as a waiter, I would leave ASAP. Oh never come to this place again!

Long black hair in my salad. Went yesterday 3÷26÷16. DISGUSTING!

To me, these chain are all the same.
However, the service was the best I have ever experienced in these joints.
Food is ok…

This place blows don’t waste your money. Place has. No heat. Food is horrible Especially. The mack and cheese. Gross over cooke bonkers wings gross the mozzarella stick not cooked all the way. The nachos gross the pretzel and cheese dip gross as well cheese whiz in a can taste better. Do not come here

Garbage onder the table they need to clean better l got to step on the garbage went was eating !

Just changed their menu again but waiters and waitresses are always great. Great bar crowd on Sunday and good deals during football season.
This place is probably a bit better than the average Applebee’s believe it or not. Burgers always cooked well hot items never seem to sit in their window long and get cold or stale.

Worst one I’ve ever been too. I’m starting to realize why I barely go to Applebee’s anymore.
It’s NOT all good in the neighborhood, Mr. Murnyack. I have your business card and I’ll be contacting you soon with my concerns.
Also tell your blonde lady bartender that she needs better customer service training.

I ate here about a year back and after I left (about an hour later) I started to vomit and for the next two days I could not eat food. This was about a year ago and still to this day I still have stomach problems. Never coming back I recommend go to a different Applebee’s

It was a standard visit with some highlights on the service. The people at the front desk were very sweet and welcoming and the waitress that served us took our orders timely and with ease.
It’s always hard to grade a place like this because the food is just simple, the service is simple, the whole concept of this place is just simple. This place is a High Calorie guzzler and for the quality of there food it’s not worth it. No need to gain 1000+ calories on drenched salad and salty meats.
With that all said the orders where taken properly and the food was expedited on time. Can’t ask for more from a place like this.
Ps. Vegetarians stay away… And don’t order the drinks. Too much sugar and not always clean bar.

I’m super pissed about this place this is the second time I find something that doesn’t belong is the food first time it was hair. The man manager was super nice about it and handled it very well so it wasn’t that big off a deal. This time I found price tags in my spinach im guessing they where not washed. And the manager Valerie was super rude and disrespectful try to convince me that the price labels in my food was no problem and wanted me to still pay for my food.

If you have to read a review to know about Applebee’s food do you really care how it tastes? It’s crappy bad for you food. But easy and cheap.

Food was excellent. Great staff. I was that person ordering right before they close and they were still as welcoming. Five stars.

READ ME!!!
I have learned some information I think other people should know haha.
Recently became friends with someone who used to work here. They said they enjoyed working there etc, but happened to divulge some pretty DISGUSTING information about the place. Have you ever seen the movie «Waiting.»? According to my friend, and ex employee, this Applebees is a mirror of that movie…
What I’m saying is. If your order is extra difficult, or if you give the staff any problems at all (complaining about your food, etc) they will mess with the food you order. For example: apparently one time a table was being difficult, being very specific with their orders and a bit snippy to the waiter. So what this annoyed waiter did was took the ginger ale soda they ordered, and before giving it to the table, snuck it to the restroom and literally urinated a bit in the cup. Disgusting right? And my friend, ex employee, said this stuff happened ALL the time at this Applebees. I don’t think I need to explain any other incidents, but my friend told me a bunch of things the staff here does regularly if you annoy them at all with your service.
Absolutely disgusting.

BEER/​CHEESE DIP WITH PRETZELS — great!
bourbon blue burger — great! large enough for 2.
Really nice service.

Night 2 in Riverhead and I opt for Applebee’s. While I am not a chain kinda guy Applebee’s was not bad. I told the waiter that I wanted their best Marguerita. They made this perfect cocktail with Patron Silver with an olive? that was pretty darn exceptional.
I then had a good wedge salad. The bacon was a tad overcooked or it would have been 5 star. But it was a good salad and nothing to complain about.
I then had some really good French Onion Soup. Not 5 star but strong 4 star quality.
Finished my meal with an ice cream sundae shooter. Good but nothing to write home about.
It was a good experience and I shall return along with 95% of the population here. Looks like Applebee’s is the place to be seen in Riverhead, NY.

So me and my coworkers went to this location for lunch, and i have to say i started to wonder if this location was giving something away! it was pretty busy. but we sat down like within 5 minutes and were promptly greeted by our server. we ordered an appetizer that came within 10 minutes, and the main entrée soon there after. the morale to this review is that the food is average like all your Applebees but the service was better. i have to say that the food is always consistent… Hey its Applebees! lol

The food was excellent and the statf were friendly. The place is clean and orderly. I’m glad we found it because the food in the food court sucks at River Head. When I come back to Riverhead I will definitly eat there again.
