Applebee's Grill + Bar

The high point to this visit was the customer service, our waiter, "Joe", and the food. For a commercial business, the food tasted decent enough but it was in a small portion compared to price. The interior could use an update. Parking was plentiful.

Really enjoyed my dinner! Most of the Applebee’s where I live have closed, but if they would have been run like this one, it might be a different story. My server, Elizabeth V was great and the ribs I had were tasty and a decent value. Will definitely stop by again!

The wait was the only problem I had. The food was excellent and the ones that took the longest were removed from the ticket. My steak was prepared perfect, however one of the others I was with had not got their steak well done like they asked. Afterwards, they prepared their steak again well done. The fries of the other guests with me were cold, but they were given hot fries after. Great service for one waiter working with a table of 9. I got the 6 ounce sirloin steak medium rare with broccoli and the four cheese mac and cheese.

Mmmm.. 3 stars is being generous. I am not sure if our waitress was new or just bad. Even though she appeared to verify our to-go order it was still wrong. We got a simple and highly advertised 2 for 20 special which was rang up wrong. A simple salad and burger took at least 30 minutes on a night that did not appear to busy. I asked for extra ketchup and she brought me two. To the night manager's credit he was pleasant when correcting everything. So there is that. The bartender engaged us in conversation even though we were not ordering drinks. Good for her! We were just passing through. For those that live there be sure to double check everything before paying.

So on our road trip, we stopped in St. Louis for the evening to get some rest before we continue on to Kentucky and to Chicago. We stopped at Texas roadhouse and it was absolutely disappointing. I ordered the beef tips with rice off of their menu. It was supposed to come with mushrooms and sautéed onions . The rice was half cooked and it did not have the mushrooms or sautéed onions and they gave me sour cream, which was the one thing I asked not to be put on the menu. What Applebee's was Absolutely the best meal we've had since we left California. I ordered the riblets with fries. My wife ordered the chicken Alfredo. We got a pizza with some strawberries two salads for the children absolutely great everything cooked perfectly great portions. Everyone was filled and satisfied.
