The food was really good. Made fresh and served hot. Our server was amazing and super friendly. The restaurant needs a bit of an overall, but it was relatively clean. Wasn't super busy, so we were served quickly, and like I said, the food was fresh and hot.

I ordered crafted burger for me . It came with nothing inside looking small and weird. No any sign of fried onion , mushroom or Cajun sauce . When I told the waitress about that she said she will bring those missing stuff separately. When she did , the burger was completely cold . Very dirty bathrooms , dirty floors , curtains, dirty broom was sitting at the entrance when we went in. When we started the order we have to return the menu waitress gave us as it was greasy and very sticky. We will never return there again . We ate at The Hollows several days ago. Completely different impression. Clean, nice, very good food .

My husband and I had dinner at another local restaurant and had a terrible experience. We decided to stop in to have a drink before we called it a night. Z was amazing. We ended up staying for a couple drinks and delicious dessert. She turned our night completely around; I’m glad we stopped in. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!!

I haven't been to an Applebee's in years, and this was just an utter disappointment. It was a party of 6, which they clearly didn't want to serve. We were noticed, but not acknowledged, and many staff walked around laughing like we aint know the deal. We waited to be seated for 20 minutes in a dead restaurant. We were seated at half cleaned tables in a dirty section. I had the Blue Long Island Iced tea, which was weak, even with a shooter added. For food, I had the nachos, which were actually good(even though they still gave me the guacamole I told them to leave out), and the four cheese Mac & cheese w/ honey peppered tenders...which was why I came...but was greatly disappointed because those weren't the tenders it used to come with. Idk if they switched it and didn't think to tell me, or

Ordered just Beef Nachos and the orden came to the table cold. This is what it looks like after being heated up...at least the cheese is melted now.
