Great service, the manager came and checked at our table to see how our experience was so far. Garrett the waiter was the same as last time we came here. He was so awesome, quick and provided amazing service. Last time we came here he gave my daughter some colorful pens to use on her kids meal menu. (Very sweet) Would recommend for a quick and delicious family dinner. 🙌🏽

2 for 25 is your best bang for your buck at a full service restaurant. 9pm to close has half off appetizers. All the food was great and our server was very attentive to our drinks. Thanks. Be back soon

Haven't been to Applebee's in a while I usually go to Chili's we wanted to switch it up so we went to Applebee's and they changed their menu and pricing again. me and my son got the two for 25 and we wanted the steak and come to find out it's an extra six dollars for that option for each plate they don't even give the option for the 6 ounce and then if you want to upgrade you can get the 8 ounce and pay the extra money, so I don't know why that option is even on the two for $25 if you mandatory you have to add the six dollars to get the steak, disappointing for sure. my younger son who is three got the cheese pizza, which honestly was really gross it looked disgusting my son loves pizza and he will eat any kind of pizza and for him to not eat this was the first time in general, and I don't

Had the 2 for $29 for lunch today. The food and ambiance were great. However, the service was so slow. The Spinach and Artichoke Dip took 30 minutes to be served. We had the Whiskey Bacon Burger and 6 oz Top Sirloin.
