I'm not usually a big Applebees fan but I will go for the drinks and this one in Florida has amazing happy hour specials. They currently have the $1 house margaritas for the month of July and those were so-so as expected. You could always pay more to upgrade the liquor. I got the Bahama mama which was $3 on the happy hour and it was good: they had a pretty decent selection of drinks for happy hour $5 and less and the menus looked new and clean. The outside of the restaurant does need some landscaping done, but overall good experience for an Applebees. read more

Tried this after my poor experience with the local Chillis....needless to say, it was just as bad. Bourbon Swiss Mushroom burger was not cooked to order....over cooked. Do not have high expectations, but if a restaurant can not cook to order as requested by a customer, is not getting my business. read more

The best sandwich on the planet earth perfectly prepared today! And the best onion rings I have had in a long time. And the service by "Shani G" was perfect. and they serve PEPSI not Coke! read more

The restaurant was freezing cold. Even though we were told the AC was turned up, it continued to blow cold air. Could not wait to get out of there. I had to go to the car and get a blanket. Plus the food was just so-so. read more

Just f'n HORRIBLE. Sat quickly, drinks served quickly with app served in a timely manner, motivated sticks. Unfortunately, they weren't cooked well enough. I ordered three 4 cheese with chicken. Waited about 10 minutes, which I thought was normal for being 1st customer of the day. Antre was served. Luke warm and no cheese added. It took the server about 10 minutes to come check on the food. It's ridiculous to have food served this way when the individual bringing the food should be checked the food before bringing it to the table. This place will be closed in no time if it continues on this route. It d doesn't matter if it's a training location or not. read more

Buyer Beware!!!! I visited this establishment on 8/19/24 for lunch (3 PM) and paid with my credit card. I left a cash tip as I NEVER put a tip on my credit card. I received an alert on my credit card at 0156 AM 8/19/24 for a transaction of $10.00 at Applebees. I crossed through the tip section and added the total at the bottom of the ticket, so I know there was no price marked on the ticket. I have called the credit card company and will call this place when they open. TAKE A PICTURE OF YOUR RECIEPT IF YOU PAY WITH A CREDIT CARD. THIEFS ARE WORKING HERE!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Food was edible-I got a burger. The waiter had a nice personality, just wish he would've come around more. I don't know who their bartender was that night, but that was the WORST gin & tonic I've ever had in my life!!! Ambiance was tolerable. Not a wide variety of music. read more

How are y'all going to insist that your shrimp have always been those overbreaded turds and insinuate that I'm the one not remembering correctly? The service was awful, the compensation doesn't make up for y'all basically calling me a liar. Get wrecked. read more

Had to kill a hour while waiting for parent to get out of a appointment at Docs across the way- thought this would be a good quick k spot for a snack n beer. The service was very very slow but perhaps they do not have enough help. We sat at a high top in the bar area and orders the combo appetizer- we did not even finish half. It just was not flavorful. Simple frozen food. The beer was fine. The bar was filled with what seems to be locals that got out of work and had no place else to grab a beer. I felt like I was on a a old cruise ship from the 70's. Just not enough happy energy here. Not my jam. read more

Really don't understand how the rating is so low I've literally had this place on and for about a week due to moving from Navarre to crestview and every time we ordered car side to go our food was fresh it was prompt and it was exactly what we were expecting none of our food was bland the people who helped us were very nice haven't had their drinks yet but in due time I'll post another review speaking on the bar read more

My waitress was great (Jenna) but my steak was supposed to be medium rare and came out more medium well, so I sent it back, waited about 40 minutes for it to come back WELL DONE. When the manager (Rob Roberts) came to check on my food, I told him my 2nd steak was more done than my first and he apologized and walked away. I ended up just eating my boyfriends steak. He also sent his first steak back. It was supposed to be medium but came back medium rare. I would've just eaten his initially but he ordered a 8oz and I ordered a 6oz and the manager took both steaks back. It's no wonder the turn rate at this restaurant is so awful, the manager doesn't even care about his customers so I can only imagine how the employees are treated! ): read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - "Medium rare" steak - American Near Me - Crestview, Florida

We dined there with 2 family members in their 90's on a Wednesday evening. Aging parents with hearing issues presents a special set of challenges. Our server, Emily, could not have been more helpful, patient, and compassionate during the entire course of our meal. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make our meal very enjoyable. Applebee's Corporate: if you read this review, please acknowledge this employee as having exemplary customer service skills and compensate her accordingly. Again, Thank you Emily! read more

This Applebee's location is excellent. The staff is friendly and very helpful. I've never had anything bad off of their menu. So, kudos to their cooking staff! Their drink selection is great, and they have the best top-shelf margaritas around. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

Our server was attentive and prompt throughout the meal. He was happy to modify my meal to fit my dietary needs. I was also pleased that he followed all the state guidelines regarding proper Covid free protocols while serving us. Only thing that wasn't not up to standard is the lettuce in our chicken bowls was very wilted. read more

Food was ok, plenty of decent choices. Really enjoyed the bar; drinks were good (even for my picky beer drinker), music was great, and the many tv's were happily loaded with the CHIVE, MMA fights, and other sports. It was a great stop. Thanks. read more

Absolutely awful. Went in with inherently low standards because it's an Applebee's and was still severely disappointed. Only got my drink refilled once, Food was super bland and chewy, and the carpet was sticky. To top it off the server was cursing loudly while talking to the table adjacent to my family, including my 6 year old who heard every word. Would give zero stars if I could. Save yourself the trouble and go literally anywhere else. read more

I have been coming to this place for the past 15 years! Back in the day this was one of the few restaurants in Crestview, but now it is definitely one of many! I have tons of memories there, from eating after high school football games and family dinners. They use to have great deals and specials for 1/2 apps and certain main dishes, definitely miss those and wish those would come back. My favorite meal there would definitely have to be the chicken fajita roll ups! They come with thick, seasoned and crispy fries (best fries) and the most amazing southwest chipotle dipping sauce. Would always have to order multiple rounds of that sauce! Highly recommend trying at least the fries and that sauce!! read more

We had the appetizer combo and onion rings to do. Curbside pickup. Everything was great! Order was accurate and delivered to my vehicle at exact pickup time. The young lady that brought it to the car was very personable and friendly. The food was very tasty. Thank you! read more

If I could give no stars for my experience tonight I will! Understanding there is so much going on right now I was not completely upset until we asked the waiter hey why are these tenders and mozzarella sticks like this? He quickly laughed saying oh no the chef made them fresh!?like please knock it off why are we being charged full price for something like this? read more

The food is always trash and the manager should of been fired years ago!!!! The Manager is literally the route of the problem.

Absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection! The Bourbon Street Chicken with Loaded Mashed Potatoes was outstanding. The Ceasar side salad was fresh and crisp. Our server was the best, ever! A truly enjoyable meal! read more

Absolutely the worst experience I have ever had at any Applebees I will never walk thru the doors here again!!!!!!!! My God you would think a chain restaurant would have a standard but not this place.. If you want to see a bartender text while you wait 20 minutes for a drink by all means come here.. I wish I could show a picture of our burger!! Absolutely terrible I would give no stars if that were a option!!!!! read more

Not my favorite place any more. the cheeseburger quesadilla is 75% onion and inedible. just ordered the salmon and it in no way resembled the menu photo. the fish was paper thin and about 3x4 inches. so disappointed. read more

Really bad experience. I have been saving my gift cards from Christmas and finally got to come. Service was very slow. Never got our appetizer after 45 minutes. Food was over cooked and greasy. Will never be back. read more

Thank you for being super nice to us. Awesome service. Great tasting food especially the salmon.

All I have to say is they are running out of food.‍ The bar tender refused to serve a mixed drink with beer and the Shark Pool tasted watery without any alcohol.I don't think I will be eating here again. read more

Nice and friendly place. Was not discriminated against for practicing my constitutional right to breath. They sat me down, with no questions asked and provided great service. read more

This place use to be good many years ago. I came bsck into town and decided to try again. I sat at the bar while a very disgruntled bartender moved about aimlessly....it was so sad. After exactly 8 minutes of her not paying any attention to anyone new at her bar I left. Will never return.... read more

I don't know how this Applebee's stays open. I foolishly ignored the low ratings and went anyway. The problem is bad food and even worse management. I was served my very first inedible Caesar salad. I didn't think that was possible! Super thick, sour dressing that was so heavy you couldn't taste the lettuce. After sending it back was served a raw burger. It wasn't even rare! Cold, raw meat. The manager ran and hid. No apology, nothing! The only positive thing I can say is that our server was great. She was so embarrassed at the kitchen and management. I felt bad for her. Stay away. Applebee's corporate please come re-vamp this location! read more

Just had a visit here with my friend on Memorial Day. The hostess came and opened the door for us when we walked in which was super polite. We were seated immediately and had super quick service- in and out in 45 minutes. Food tasted great and the margaritas were strong for only costing $1! read more

This is the worst place to eat. Customer service is horrible and very rude. I went with my kids and I wait around 20 minutes for my food, I asked the waitresses and he said I all will check and never came back. When finally my food came to my daughter's burger came with only one bun. I asked for the other bun and then they came with it after 5 minutes, the waitress told my daughter"there is your bun, more carbs". read more

came back to Crestview today and had Emily as our waitress this time! told us it was the last day for all you could eat wings, kept em coming! the honey BBQ were awesome! excellent service, hilarious and thanked my dad for his military service which made his day. (retired Army) will come back next time I'm in town read more

The whole house gets diarrhea every time we go here, regardless of what entree we order. Never fails.

Maui was Amazing great energy order was perfect would definitely go back just to see him. Keep up the Awesome job Maui dont ever let anyone take away your shine read more

Chain fast food. Close to my hotel so that's nice. Service was slow that time and they overcooked my chicken. Maybe I'll try other meats.

Great food food and always pleasant service! My dad and I love going here on the regular basis. We have our favorite waitress named Jennifer she's awesome! read more

Decent Applebee's. Clean. I'd rate and 8 on service. Food is good. I like it as a quick date night.

We've eaten here quite often, and enjoyed our meal once. Chain food is fairly reliable when it comes to flavor, so I felt comfortable coming her after establishing a good relationship with another location a few years ago. I quickly fell out of my comfort zone. The food is extremely inconsistent. One day we'll eat there and everything will be great, and then we'll come several more times and it will be dry, or unflavored, or undercooked, or just plain bad. We keep returning because we keep getting gift certificates from family for holidays and birthdays. We aren't likely to ever spend cash eating here, though. The sweet tea is seriously lacking in flavor. read more

Went in for a quick bite before heading back to my hotel, Amanda the bartender was great conversation and ended up sticking around a lot longer. I'll go back to this location just for her. read more
