Applebee’s

Stop in for lunch on our way back from Lincoln City (Oregon Coast) we ordered their lunch specials. Great prices and portion for lunch descent. However the chicken pasta penne tasted bland the sauce definitely tasted like powder cheese sauce, chicken was cook great. My husband had The chicken special and fries was good tasting, if you like lots of breading though, Sauce yummy. For the pricing very good quick meal to fill your tummy. Service friendly as usual. The new check out system is a little un personable though (just an opinion)

A pleasure to leave 5 stars to «this» Appplebees. The hostess seated us, our server was right there, and the restaurant was filled with wonder sents. BBQ, meets bourbon st grill. The food was fast and prepared to excellent perfection. The restaurant was clean, and the entire staff was friendly.
We will travel out of our city to visit here again.

I have never had good food at an Applebee’s, but I had a gift card and decides to try again. I’ll just list pros and cons.
PROS:
Fast service, friendly waiter! He was absolutely on it! 4 – 5 stars for him.
Food seemed fresh.
CONS:
Over priced. $ 9.50 for a margarita? We paid $ 67 for three people to eat…
Food was not good. It was subpar at best. I had shrimp wonton stir fry, and it was so salty and the rice was minute rice! Plus my mushrooms were burnt. Everyone else’s food just wasn’t great
All in all, good service but the food is just not worth the price. I will not be coming back. Save your money and go to Red Robin or something if you want a family friendly sports bar.

Generally I have little expectations for Applebee’s as a whole but tonight validated my feelings and reminded me of why I should never consider this location EVER again! We were seated pretty fast but then the problems started. «Mike» was our waiter apparently but obviously was overwhelmed because a middle aged waitress came over to tale our drink order after loudly expressing to the entire section she would be helping Mike out. I Wished we had just waited for Mike because this woman was rude and snapped at my husband when he asked a question, Got an attitude when we asked if she could take our order after sitting there for 20 min. Because Mike wasn’t going to apparently. The food was subpar and not very good considering the people serving it were so unpleasant. This location needs a staffing makeover.

I think I’ve only been in an Applebee’s twice in my life, and now I remember why.
Service: decent. The hostess seemed pretty bored, but she was nice enough. Our service was on top of it; my water was always full, additional items asked for were delivered promptly, et centers. Our server was nice enough, but nothing to write home about.
Food: the spinach and artichoke dip was alright, I’ve had better but I’ve also had worse. I ordered the Clubhouse Grille with no bacon or ham (just turkey and veggies) and sure enough, it was served to me with bacon (sigh). My boyfriend ordered the fish and chips and the fish was SO oily, the tarter sauce wouldn’t even stick to the fish! I found a hair on my plate, too. Overall, nothing special.
Atmosphere: typical restaurant on a Sunday; lots of football, pretty quiet.
We won’t be going back to Applebee’s.

Honestly, I didn’t have the highest expectations, but me and my friends left assured we would never go back to this location.
Within the first 5 minutes of being there we were asked 3 times if we wanted to order– to which we obviously needed to say no because we didn’t know a thing about the menu. and after it took them probably 10 – 15 minutes to come back again.
When our server finally came, he seemed very in a rush to take our order– until someone mentioned the margaritas. Suddenly he was VERY talkative to tell us all about how he has sold the second most «perfect margaritas» in the district. which is only because the bartender was first. End of friendliness.
About 5 seconds later of my friends deciding– he repeats their orders as if hurrying us along to leave, almost overlooking me ordering completely.
As it was late at night– happy hour was posted ALL over the building, we all of course ordered appetizers myself getting a couple clearly included in the half off deal.
About 10 minutes later we get our food and my friends who ordered exactly the same thing got twice as much food in their servings.
When we asked what was going on– he told me I clearly ordered the full price «sampler combo» which was absolutely not the case. Never was the word sampler used, never did I point that out somewhere, etc. He continued to argue that I had apparently pointed to something that made him think I wanted the option that would get me literally half as much food and pay a dollar more– and this NEVER made him think maybe he should point out the deal I could get or ask to clarify.
Instead of just clearing up the mistake, he continued to argue until my friend just simply asked him to bring the remaining food I wanted and was going to pay for.
Another 10 minutes later he brought the rest of the food, set it down without saying anything, walked away and never said anything to us again. We paid at the table side payment machine and never saw him again.
Again, I didn’t have the highest expectations for an Applebees at the end of the night– but this server was unprofessional, rude and made us all feel uncomfortable. None of us are the types to complain in restaurants– but 4 of us could clearly see his argument for what he did was faulty and downright deceptive.
Server aside– it was also freezing to the point where we were all wearing coats and sitting close to each other to stay warm. They clearly didn’t want people to stay around any longer, or deal with us any more than they absolutely had to.
I will absolutely not go back to this restaurant.

We have stopped at this Applebee’s 2 times. The first, about a year ago, the service was slow, the staff courteous and the food kind of like a microwaved TV dinner. We stopped again 2 days ago and it was outrageously bad. Not only was the service poor (without many tables filled) but the food was bad. The worst part was going into the bathroom where someone had thrown up and puke was all over the floor. After we got home one of us started getting sick and had diarrhea for 2 days. Was it the food? We aren’t sure but it wasn’t anywhere else he ate. We like Applebee’s and usually go to the one in Salem and it is very good. This one though, I can’t recommend.

This Applebee’s is good and nice staff. They just take forever. Don’t go during lunch hour or you may not make it back in time. Clean and courteous as well.

Run of the mill Applebee’s. Our server was decent, but the woman serving the couple behind us was so attentive. I was pretty jealous of the great service they received. They have new software at the tables that assist in ordering food and making payment. I like the computer personally, but I do not expect to give a 20% tip to it. It helps you calculate the tip, and I felt odd leaving my server a large tip for very little customer service. However, the server behind us definitely deserved one for friendliness.
We ordered the Pretzel Sticks with Beer Cheese Sauce, The All American Burger, a half rack of Chipotle Ribs, and the kids mac and cheese with mozzarella sticks.
The pretzels were fried and the cheese sauce tasted just like Gustav’s Restaurant fondue. I don’t think I would order them again. The burger was not half bad. I liked the consistency of the meat with the bacon, onions and pickles mixed in. I was happy to see some pink in it. The rest of the burger was unremarkable. The ribs were standard for this type of restaurant. The kids mac and cheese was the common kraft clone variety.
I really wouldn’t go out of my way for a Applebee’s, but it happened to be there, and really is not the worst you can do. They serve what they say they will and do not pretend to be something that they are not. This location was cozy, and made a fabulous dirty martini.

Oh boy… I realize this Crapplebees, but c’mon! Totally apathetic! Don’t you dare sit down to eat while hot food is in front of me with no silverware roll. Prep your guest BEFORE food arrives. This is food service 101. Overall, a forgetable experience. Server nor manage seemed to give a shyte. Work on your service and watch your tips increase. Try it. I dare ya…

Not good, got our appetizers n the server didnt say a word same when we got our food, no smiling welcoming faces, just bad service all around… Never again…:(

I love the new menu with so many
More options especially for kids. We have so many food limitations the new menu let’s is order low carb and grain free for the kids. Had the couple special 2 meals for $ 25. Great food tastes good!

Might have actually enjoyed my food and service if the waitress wasnt socializing with friends 70% of the time while she was on the clock. Inconsiderate and rude. I would rather swallow bleach than eat here again.

They have started a new computerized thing on the edge of the table that pretty much does the servers job. I went with two other people and the server came and got our order, she wasn’t friendly, but not rude either. The gadget on the edge of the table did everything else. Asked you if you needed a refill, or there was a «Call your server» button. If I am tipping someone to wait on me I feel like I shouldn’t have to use this thing. She didn’t check on us once and my drink sat empty for half the meal.

Joe is fantastic! Really enjoying him as a waiter! Y’all need to keep him around! The restaurant is super clean and a great menu selection. Great for a lunch break!

Great service, food & drinks! The Southwest salad (unsure of the official name) is amazing! The chipotle/​spicy ranch is the bomb! We love coming here & management always makes each guest feel well cared for too!

I’ve been to this Applebee’s many times before tonight, and it’s always been a fairly pleasant experience. However, tonight was very different from those other trips.
Our server was not attentive, and seemed to be either new or having a very off night. Our starters came to the table, but we had no plates to eat on. When she returned half– way through our starter, I asked nicely for small plates, and she responded very politely, but sadly brought them long after we were finished.
Our entrees were fair, but portions seemed to be ¹⁄₃ what they used to be. I ordered the rib eye steak, medium and received a very rare medium at best. Not to be b*tchy, but my veggies were cooked longer than my steak.
Of course I’ll eat there again, I can’t do without the Oriental Chicken Salad every now and then! All I’m saying is don’t get your hopes up, mine were WAY too high, and I was greatly disappointed.

It’s applebees what can you say. The waitresses are friendly everyone on staff that I have spoke to has been great. If there is ever a problem they fix it! I once told them there wasn’t enough rum in my mojito and it was fixed by the next one! The nice service that you get when you go here is what makes this place.

It’s Applebees. ONce you been to one, you’ve been to all of them. Or have you?
The staff here is fun, friendly and fashionable, if a bit more low-​key than you’d expect from «your neighborhood bar and grill». The children’s menu has recently been changed and there are some awesome options for the tykes. Full bar, a few brews on tap and app specials late night equal a nice place to spend $ 20 during a game.

Great staff! Very clean restaurant! The have half off appetizers after 9pm I believe. Got my food fast and it tasted good! I recommend this apple bees! Five star!
