Our server David was prompt on taking our order AND bringing our drinks/appetizer on a Tuesday evening (8pm). Speaking English and Spanish was a common thing among all waiters. We ordered 2/$25 onion rings rings to share and 2 cheeseburgers We received our appetizer within 3 minutes. We had Kelly Clarkson playing on the background, but it didn't overpower the ambience. Tv screens in the front played sports. We decided on Perfect margaritas his was the original and mine the mango w Tajín rim (YUM) My husband gave the cheeseburger, fries and onion rings an 8.5/10 The drink was 10/10 I rate my burger, fries and onion rings 8/10 and my drink a 10/10 Total came out to: $56 w tax and tip 18% was a must. Service was incredible! read more

Very disappointed, took long for our appetizer to get "spinach dip was cold"about a minute after got our main dish; the mash potatoes on one of the orders was steaming hot, you could see smoke coming out, had to mix with other order to eat read more

First off let me say I've been to one or two Applebees. The one in Calexico is really great! We are here for my Grandsons Baptism. It's adjacent to our hotel and we've eaten her two nights! Each time that staff has been great, food has been great; and service has been great! Shout out to our waitstaff; Yolanda the first night; and Amadeus tonight! We even called the manager over to compliment them all! OUTSTANDING! Thank You! read more

Who doesn't love Applebee's? I love Applebee's! A lot of my early adulthood was spent in the restaurant...and the bar! I was conducting business away from town...never mind the business...and I stopped here for dinner and a drink. The food and the drinks were right on point. It was a busy Wednesday and it appeared they were slammed. Everyone was hustling. Kudos to all those servers out there. It is not an easy job. TIP YOUR WAITERS AND BARTENDERS read more

Customer service needs to improve, have waiters constantly check on customers to see that their demands are met please. The ambience is still cozy and the food is alright, please bring back more "all-you-can-eat" food items when possible. read more

Should've put 0 stars! Went to have dinner and my party had to wait about 30 minutes for a beer because the bar was "backed up" and the restaurant was "understaffed" mean while a party seated behind us arrived about 40 minutes after us had already gotten their drinks and appetizers. Honestly closing wouldn't be a bad idea this restaurant has been failing customers over and over. God only knows what is keeping them afloat. Rather drive to Yuma for better service and food! read more

Not only was I discriminated upon, but not understood as I was attacked in their restaurant establishment. No one in this restaurant was able to understand that I did nothing absolutely wrong. i would say that this place is far from a equal establishment no english speaking patrons far from any scale of professionalism read more

Ordered a Carside pickup and staff came out to confirm my order and I got my food within time frame of order. Food was delicious.

Arrived at 3:47 got my order taken at well after 4 o'clock the restaurant is empty there are three other customers here and it took forever to take to get my ice tea and the service is slow as hell. The service is friendly however but just the slowest service I have ever experienced. Took half an hour to receive my order but it is excellent food. read more

This is Abblebee's. Asked for the steak to be medium. It was medium. Grill marks were on point. Broccoli was a little passed al dente. Perfect. Had a few beers with super friendly people. I have no complaints honestly. read more

*** Pitstop Review (Calexico) *** This is a standard cookie-cutter Applebee's. That's not a bad thing in my opinion, but rather a good thing. There are times when I'm on the road and I just want something quick, easy, and familiar. I was actually in the mood for tacos, but I decided to be polite and allowed my co-worker to select this location for dinner. I had the butcher's meat and potatos. It was good, but it wasn't memorable. Here's what liked... * The cookie-cutter atmosphere and food made dining easy. * Everything was just as I'd expect it. * Safe and clean appearing parking lot even for late night dining. Here's what I didn't like... * The picture looked a lot better than what came out. * What came out was a tad bit smaller than how it appeared in the photos. * We were waiting around for some time at the front before anybody acknowledged us to be seated. ********************************* Food = so-so Seating area = very clean Service = friendly Restroom = clean read more

Today was not a Applebee's finest hour went there for a quick dinner after a long day at work ordered a baked potato no chives steamed broccoli with butter and a beer the broccoli was four tiny pieces the baked potato had chives and neither of them was warm enough to melt butter when I was done took 20 minutes to get a servers attention to pay my check Don't sit at the tables away from the bar in the bar area Went back sitting at the bar and the baked potato broccoli and french onion soup were excellent guess it depends on when you go read more

Our waitress Kendra was great! Food was good. Restaurant was clean, atmosphere was calm and not hectic as it should be.

I eat out a lot traveling in business and have ti give accolades to this Applebee's as being one of the top one's for fiid and service. Have eaten here 3 tines in past two weeks and all other places in Calexico that I ate at were a disappointment in comparison to this restaurant. Appetizers were great. Steak was cooked to perfection and burger was very good. Server tonight was fantastic - way to go Belinda you rocked. read more

My boyfriend just had a terrible experience here. We are a frequent Applebee's customers and we usually have never had much to complain about but the way manager Karla handled this was unacceptable. I created an online order of 2 Tex mex bowls(shrimp and steak) and spinach and dip artichoke appetizer. When my boyfriend had arrived, the food was taking substantially longer which makes sense as many restaurants are currently understaffed. I get that. He went ahead and called to let them know he was outside. They had brought the order but had forgotten the dip. My boyfriend went ahead and called again to let them know. When he received the dip, there was a chip inside the closed dip. Keep in mind, he had not touched it but there was a chip already in there. He went ahead and contacted the manager, Karla, and informed her of the situation. Karla did not want to acknowledge that this dip looked like it had been eaten even though there was a whole ass chip in there that didn't just look like it fell in. On top of this, we ordered a steak bowl and we got a chicken bowl instead. read more

Great food and amazing service. Our waitress Yasmine M. was amazing. So helpful and would come back to check on our table. I recommend going to visit this Applebee's and hopefully you'll get Yasmine M. as your waitress. read more

If I could give it zero star, I would. By far the worst food in my experience at an Applebee's. The service was mediocre, it was not too busy where the waitress could not keep up. Our order was incorrect and the waitress was nowhere to be seen. I had to go look for her. My kid finished his drink and again I had to request another. The food was another issue. My steak was so chewy I could not gulp it down, needless to say I couldn't finish it. The broccoli was raw. At first I thought I was exaggerating so my family members tried it, they agreed with me. Last but not least, I ordered a 4 oz steak for my nephew, when it arrived we noticed that the chicken wing was almost as big as his steak. It was a joke! Never coming back! read more

I have never had a problem at applebees before, but this time it was horrible. My party and I waited for 30 minutes and the server never even came to take our order. We just left. The place was not even full there were plenty of empty tables and there were 4 servers. They just kept looking at us but no one ever came to take out order. read more

I usually have a good experience but today 2as pretty MEH... We got there about 10 till 4 and wanted to get the lunch specials... The waiter took forever and got back at us at like 4:01 and refused to honor the special lunch price... The lemonade was too sweet, had to ask for a glass o water and made 2 glasses out of it (couldve made a small pitcher)... So we ordered the wings and a sandwich... The wings were super cold, i wouldve sent them back but my husband doesnt like to return food to the waiters in fear they might spit on it or something... Anyways... Bad day today read more

I recently reviewed the Applebee's in El Centro, and suffice it to say, I did not rate that one with 5 stars. The Calexico Applebee's is clean, the staff is friendly and efficient, and we didn't have to wait an unreasonable amount of time for our food. Nothing wrong with that. When we first arrived, we were a party of 4. The on duty manager opened the front door for us himself, and welcomed us to the restaurant. We were seated immediately and informed our waiter we were expecting 2 more people. While we waited, he kept the drinks coming and took our appetizer order. The rest of our party arrived, and they brought along 3 additional people. No problem for the Applebee's staff. The manager started putting together a table big enough to comfortably accommodate our group, then moved our drinks and silverware over to the new table. Our server Roy was phenomenal. He took our orders quickly, got everything right and was very friendly and helpful throughout the evening. He and the manager both stopped by our table several times to ensure that we had everything we needed. Our drinks never wanted for a refill. He had no problems splitting our checks correctly. All in all, this Applebee's experience was a welcome change from my experiences at the El Centro location. While I will still never return to the El Centro Applebee's it is nice to know that if I am craving a fantastic Red Apple Sangria or want to hang out and watch the game, its not too far to head to Calexico. read more

The WORSE service in Calexico, DON'T come here if you are hungry, they sat us down and we did not see a server for Drinks until 22 minutes after they sat us down. As we where about to leave the Sever finally came. She asked if we where ready to order, I told her we where waiting for 22 minutes just to get our drinks ordered and I was planning on leaving. I should have left, when she apologized for the wait I did tell her if it was going to take as long as we waited to be served on our Food wait.. she said oh NOOO. Guess what she was right. It didn't take my wife 22 minutes to get her drink. It took 35 minutes.. I also ordered the bottomless Boneless wings.. yah!! They sell you that shit because they know they won't come back to offer you another helping.. fuck this place.. NEVER coming back to this shit hole.. This is why you are better off going to El Centro and spending money in another ciity read more

AppleBees was the Bomb , I love This Place , they even Gave me and my Girlfriend two free Margaritas on the House..The Food is good , the People are friendly and the Manager Sings in the Reatraunt sometimes..sooo Funny :) read more

Only reason I give this place 3 stars is because of the waiter Luis. He was really nice and constantly giving us updates on our food and asking if we needed some thing else. We ordered 2 coffees. It took a while to be served because it was being brewed. When we got the coffees they were cold. I stuck my finger in one of the cups to prove my point. The food took a long time to arrive. When it did my ribs were more burnt one side and smeared with bbq. My son's mashed potatoes were cold too. We just wanted to leave asap and didn't say anything else. I definitely won't go back read more

Today it was the 2nd time that I went to applebee's at this location. Previously, I ordered an 8 oz sirloin that did not have any seasoning and looked more like it was boiled rather than grilled. Today was much better with the steak grilled appropriately, but incredibly small. I rate this location as average because of the price in comparison to food quality. read more

Worst service ever. If I could give 0 stars I would. I came here to celebrate my birthday and the waitress took forever to give us our food and drinks. I saw for over an hour how other people got their meals before us. When finally got my steak, it was not what I ordered and was cold like a MF. Then, requested another steak and surprise again! They gave me another wrong order with a steak the size of a meatball (#iexplodedinanger). This thing didn't stop here and other BS kept going on. Finally, a manager came to try to fix things, but the birthday celebration was already ruined. I rather pay extra and have a nice decent meal somewhere else than been in this nightmare place. #ifyouwanthorriblecustomerserviceandcoldfoodcomehere read more

It doesn't even deserve one star but I know this comment won't show up if it's not given stars. Horrible service. I have been a server before therefore i know its not easy and i always try to tip well. But if it takes the server over 30 min just to bring drinks you have to be retrained. That is just unacceptable. I could of served myself. We where never rude and we asked another server for drinks but I guess he just ignored us because he never brought anything. The service in this place is ALWAYS slow but today it was just too much. Our server passed by us more than 3 times she saw our empty drinks but decided to keep walking. Did she think we weren't gonna tip her because we where speaking spanish? Or what was the deal because even the guy ignored us. Sadly it's the only Applebee's in Calexico therefore we have no other option but to keep going here but I hope the managers talk to the servers because they are not welcoming or nice. I was trying to have a nice dinner with my friends but we all ended up leaving the place a little angry because of the service. We did tip but not as good as we would of if the service had been worth it. read more

There were 6 of us for dinner last night. 4 of us served dinner at the same time and 2 waited over 15 minutes to be served! By that time we had nearly finished while they ate their meal. Not once did the server come over to apologize or check if all had been served. We called over another server and she said she'd check on delay. Still no one came over. Once the other 2 meals brought to the table, server acted like nothing out of ordinary. The restaurant was not crowded. This is not acceptable. read more

Mediocre service. Could've gone to jack and we would've been in and out. The thing about this place is that if you don't have a penis the staff forgets about you. read more

The food is as expected at Applebee's. The waitress is very friendly and so far prompt but the hostess sucks monkey ass. She seems so busy to even crack a smile or talk to you more than asking how many. Happy hour is good for half off appetizers and drink specials. That's about it. read more

Last week I had a drink at the bar. Nice. I then had beef tacos. That night and the next day I had a severe case of diarrhea. I chalked it up to bad water . Thus week I returned with a co worker. Good drinks. I only had a salad but he had a beef dinner and also got severe diarrhea for two days. Coincidence???????? read more

They overcharged my plate by 8$, salmon was tore up and over done, didn't even give me the right shrimp, didn't get the coleslaw that was shown. My potatoes were dry and rubbery. And my grandmas plate came out 5 minuets after mine. Plus the waiter was very snotty. Worst experience I've ever had at an Applebee's! read more

We ask for a Mexican League Soccer playoff game and the waitress called the manager to tell us that they were not allowed. They have 8 TVs, per each 2 they had a different event, in two of them they had regular tv. We felt discriminated and just left the place. I rarely go to Applebee's but I will never go back. read more

Aight People! This is gonna be my first trash talking review, so get ready... God Daaaamnn! This place is consistently bad. Since applebee's is a huge chain with hundreds of locations; I say f*()k this place. Yeah that creepy dude was my waiter! He had a thick accent perhaps from rumania or serbia or crakovia f*()k if i know. f*()k if I care. He totally forgets everything and disapears. The new deal menu is pretty straight fwd 1 apptz 2 entrees 20bux. Another server came and took our order. Creepy crakovian dude returns with our food. I ordred the A1 blood and guts burger, the arti-choked to death dip, and my zombie dad got the penne a la brains! Creepy crakovian dude returns and says ; "may I server you another drink mwa ha ha ha" and Im like just thinking, "Crepy crawling crawlers ". and also with the burger in my mouth so I couldnt speak. He comes backa "mwa ha" and gives me another glass and disappears. The glass had this green shit on it; I'm feeling ewww. Anyways the food wasn't bad but it wasn't good. Applebee's Calexico is gross! One star! read more

The food is okay. I wish the chicken had more flavor though. It was very bland compared to chicken I have had in the past at other restaurants. The fries were not very tasty. I would never go here unless I was invited by friends because it was not very enjoyable. I would suggest this for people in this area though because there are not many other places to get food here. read more
