Good Service. I like the all you can eat platter, you definitely get your moneys worth.

If 'ehh' was a restaurant, Applebee's in Crosby would be that place. A couple that was seated just before us got up and left after about 10 minutes for lack of service. Later, a lady leaving the restaurant told her husband "that's the worst meal I've had in a long time". A woman at the bar was complaining (loudly) about her cheating BF. She said she was leaving to confront him but would be back later to get really drunk. Being seated in the bar area gave us a front row seat to this Jerry Springer crap. This is Applebee's Crosby. read more

Armaan was an amazing server on 1/20. Great young man with a good heart. Food was pretty good 100/10 recommend!! read more

I went here to try the all you can eat wings, ribs, shrimp, and fries. The wings and shrimp are definitely frozen. However, they taste decent. Especially considering it was all you could eat for $15.99. The ribs were not good at all. The fries were surprisingly good. I will say everything was fresh and cooked to order. Applebees has never been my favorite. I feel as if most of the menu items are overpriced and mediocre at best. They often have decent deals that bring people in. The 3 star review is nothing against this particular restraunt. It's more for the company in general. The food just seems frozen, basic, and not the best. Applebees is a place to go to when you want to get their deals. The service was good. I went in on Saturday and around 6:00 pm and there was only a few tables. read more

Food was fire, customer service was fire, atmosphere was fire! Our service jace needs a raise asap!

Used to frequent this location about once a month when we didn't feel like cooking. The bar area usually had the game on, we could get a drink and a meal pretty quickly and the quality wasn't bad. Also, the bartenders were always charismatic and would strike up fun conversations. It's been a while since Ive been back, but tonight the experience was sad. Starting with the "feel" when we walked in it was "humid" feeling, maybe the a/c? The service wasn't bad, but the usually charismatic bartender was replaced with a timid girl who was maybe just not feeling it tonight. We started with spinach artichoke dip and the chips that came with it were obviously the "crumbs" of the bag and SO salty!!! A group came in wanting steak and she said "I just sold my last 8oz to them" and thumbed her hand in our direction. BTW That steak, was ordered to medium rare, it was very, very rare. (No, we didn't tell them about it, because my husband will never send anything back to a kitchen to be "fixed") I ordered a side salad and a tortilla soup. The salad consisted of croutons, iceberg lettuce and a small spoonful of most finely diced tomatoes you ever seen, and that's about it. The tortilla soup had a sour taste to it that I didn't like either. I was done and went to bathroom and noticed my shoes sticking as I walked. It was just not a good experience at all. The servers were kind and did their job for sure, but I just wanted outta there read more

Very great service from Danquole! Her great attitude was infectious, the food was 10/10 and the drinks were phenomenal. We really appreciate the fact they were open on Thanksgiving too read more

Good service, went here to redeem a birthday coupon! Totally worth it. I went on a week day....the cook was good.

Not many places can cook a perfect steak nowadays but they definitely did! Danquole was a fantastic server. She went above and beyond with a fantastic attitude! If you want a great experience ask for her, you won't regret it!!!!! read more

Great food! Good service! I love Applebees food! Chicken wonton tacos are the best! Very affordable for everything you get!

Service was horrible, First time in this location and last time for sure, We were there for an hour since we sat on the boot and still didn't get our food, apparently they were short staffed but other customers didn't have the same issue, bottom line, Don't go to this place if you are Mexican. read more

No one goes to Applebees expecting an extravagant dining experience, but they do expect good "generic style" food that can accommodate everyone's cravings. We should have left when we saw that there were only a couple people sitting at the bar and noticed that the air conditioning was not operational. Still we decided to give it a try since we wanted someplace close with a variety. The food left so much to be desired. A few of us ordered grilled cheese because we felt that would be a safe, basic option. I have never had such a dry, basically cheese less sandwich in my life. I've had better grilled cheese from school cafeterias and the hospital, than at this place. The bread was dry as butter did not appear to have been used, and when I opened it to see if they forgot the cheese I saw they had only used one small slice. Didn't even cover the inside of the bread. Other guest commented that she had more cheese sprinkled on the top of her soup than in her cheese sandwich. Another person ordered chicken tenders and fries which were brought to the table cold. We only learned about his meal later because he didn't wish to complain since he was a guest. Do not waste your time here. The staff was nice but that's it. read more

So frickin disappointed in this place I ordered the mozzarella ravioli dish with grilled chicken breast. My plate came out hot but my raviolis were cold and my chicken breast is undercooked you can still see the pink through it. Asked for another fork so I could at least eat my salad and the fork had dried cheese still on it. The staff were super nice and so was the manager. The pla e was clean and tables were cleaned off soon after people left. Ended up going with the Quesadilla Burger, should have did this to start with like the hostess recommended. read more

omg i cannot even start this but once we got there everything was ok but then a lady kept giving us weird side eyes so then the other girl came to sit us down there was almost a hundred seats open but no she sat everyone in one spot babies crying there was a deaf kid that said "chillis" we're in apple bees.. the food can and oh can i describe it when i got my yogurt with strawberries it was litteraly expired and the lady said "oh all kids like it" so then she said that they didnt put sugar so then they bring the sugar one and she said "oh i told you" like girl u didn't say a word and then the strawberry bannana smoothie looked like apple juice i was about to throw up and it tasted like orange juice!! when we got home i threw up and my family that went were nonstop going to the bathroom and i git sick!!!!! read more

Decent food as far as the steaks . The steaks are all i have had. I love shrimp and the shrimp that come with the ribeye is a great deal.

terrible. The food make me and my children sick. Service was mediocre. Food was really bad.

Waited for 15 minutes to be seated. No one acknowledged our party of two so we now sit across the street at Whataburger, looking at their empty parking lot, with a full understanding of why there is no one eating at their establishment. read more

I believe the success of a restaurant is based on the quality of the food, price value and the service provided. This Applebee's failed miserably on the service part. My wife and I came and waited a good five minutes without a single person coming to help us. In fact no employee was visible. Finally the hostess showed up and without apology just asked us if we wanted a booth or table. Once we sat down we waited and we waited. Oddly, we heard the voice of a waitress at the table immediately behind us telling a joke. Much to our disappointment that happened to be our waiter who eventually wrapped up her performance and waited on us. If you consider average food at average prices not acceptable then find someone else. The $2 drinks are no reason to stop either. read more

I was looking up restaurants, trying to figure out what we should get for dinner. I noticed this location had a low review, so thought I would share my experience. Through pandemic 2020 and the first half of this year, I picked up from this restaurant many times, more than any other restaurant. Curbside is easy, friendly and fast and the food is consistent and good. We ate inside a few times, it was the same experience dine in. We have ordered everything but the burgers and all was super good. They were short staffed one night like every restaurant right now and still had amazing customer service, so it was worth the wait. We hardly noticed before guy apologized for wait. There were literally only 2 staff members and they rocked it! read more

I'm hating myself for giving Applebee's 3 stars. Its a chain notoriously known for their awful menu items and their attempt for originality. Its sad. This particular Applebees is packed full of ex-Crosby HS graduates as their staff and this usually shows. I have gone here time and time again, trying to give these guys second chances and thirds and fourths...Im too forgiving I imagine. Oh well, I digress... My friend Keith and I decide to head up there after our fire meeting this past Tuesday night only due to the fact that it is the only place open in Crosby past 9. We walk in and sit at the bar (don't worry I was off duty) and order a beer and queso (Dinner of champions). After much deliberating and second guessing myself we both decide on the Top Sirloin Medium Rare, with Parmesean Cheese and Shrimp Topping. Sides of Veggies and a Baked Potato to accompany. Now I have had their steaks before and take this piece of advice to the bank. DO NOT ORDER THE RIBEYE or NY STRIP! They do not know how to cook it correctly and their selection is not exactly up to par. I knew I was taking a risk when I ordered the lean cow, but for some reason The Applebee God told me to do it. So about 8 minutes into my queso and my 2nd large order of Miller Lite (not light as per the "Commish") we get our orders out. I take one slice into the beef and Im like great...those bastards overcooked my steak. I then heard Keith say those bastards undercooked my steak. Luckily for Applebees we just switched steaks so I didnt have to unleash all HELL on the cook (whom I graduated with in HS). My God, the steak was perfect! Its weird to say that about food from the Bee but hey, I was honestly suprised. The steak was gone in about 3 minutes and immediately I hated myself for not slowly enjoying it like I should have. Honestly, when will I get another steak like that from the Bee? When's the next comet coming? We might have better luck with the economy getting back to normal before I get another 8 oz. of cooked cow that good. As we left me and Keith looked at the Crosby Fire Dept. Memorabilia near the front door. They have a CVFD bunked coat with all the firemen's signatures on it. Its always good to see how a community appreciates the small things that we do, and we absolutely appreciate everything our community has done for us! read more

I visited this location on September 7th around 930 pm and our server Alexis was absolutely fantastic from the time we walked in all the way until the end. She was prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. Best service I have ever received out of all the Houston area locations in fact the best service I have received at any restaurant. I will gladly drive the extra time to go this location. I have found my Applebee's location from now on due to the service! Keep up the awesome work Alexis and the whole Crosby Applebee's team! read more

Steak was tough and had no sort of seasoning on it just looked grey and didn't taste right

FRIES WHERE TERRIBLE... stale and just absolutely disgusting. Burger was dry as can be. & the lettuce wrap had no sliced tomatoes it was just a big chunk of tomato shoved on top.. LAZY. read more

The service was absolutely terrible! my server took forever to deliver drinks and any condiments add one and keep in mind it was slow!! Will never be coming back for sure read more

Went to Applebee's for happy hours. Food is not so great but service and drinks were on top of everything. I forgot the bartender name but the Server Alexis was so great and helpful with the different drinks they had. Would go again just for Drinks but make sure server Alexis helps you.. read more

Bad service, rushed service and employees arguing out loud. Honestly a true disaster when we came. First we couldn't get the waiter to refill drinks, kept claiming he forgot but he only had two tables. Place only had 4-5 couples total but the waiters couldn't get it together the whole time. Then both refused to help the other and argued. Manager did not have control of her employees. Waiter kept rushing us to pay. Total shit show. Oh and good was ok read more

It was my first time at any Applebee's and I went with low expectations due to the reviews. But as soon as my family and I went in the host was very welcoming. Our server Kia told us she would be right with us instead of ignoring us even though she was busy, which I appreciate since I'm a server my self. She kept our drinks refilled and gave us her opinion on the questions we had. We were all pretty happy with our meals and even though Ms. Kia got busy with a big party the other servers were also very attentive. read more

Not exactly sure why this place is still open, this place is one of the worst in Crosby, service was terrible and food made wife and I sick... just plan horrible read more

Food was okay, but the portions were small and overpriced. The Happy Hour Margaritas were horrible and small. Not even worth the Happy Hour price. Draft Beer is way overpriced. Service was very slow. One person working the entire Bar Area and it was crowded. Will not go back. read more

Our service was horrible. I try, so hard, not to judge when I got out to eat because I worked in the restaurant business for 6 years. When a restaurant is slow, there is no reason for bad service. A 2 top shouldn't be in for over an hour, unless by choice. Our appetizer came before our drinks. Our server was apparently too busy to check on us, ever, and when she did, she didn't stop. She just kept walking as she asked, "is everything ok?" That doesn't give us time to respond. The manager, apparently, has the same work ethic. My glass was empty. He walked by, "do you need anything?" He continued walking. I had to stop him and ask, "could I get some more tea, please?" In this situation, you'd think he would have noticed my husband's almost empty glass, too. Nope. After it took him a minute to find the pitcher of tea, he came back, filled my glass, then asked my husband if he'd like more water. Since I have a keen eye, I was able to tell when our food was coming out of the kitchen. I saw a server (not ours) hold our food and speak to another server for a good 2 minutes at a POS station, walk back into the kitchen, and then walk out a minute later and finally deliver the food. Cold food. Not warm. Cold. Cold fries. Cold chicken strips. Cold steak. After 45 minutes, we finally received the check (no dessert offer? Tsk tsk) from the manager. Again, no server. She did come by 10 minutes later to run the credit card. Reluctantly, my husband left her a tip. At least she got the order right, right? Needless to say, we won't be going back there. read more

This place is good in the bar area to have drinks and hang out after hours with friends and coworkers in Crosby. They allow smoking though, so if you can't stand that you'll hate it. The Long Island pitchers are a great deal for strong drinks! We also order boneless wings and they're always actually really good. It's a basic Applebee's, so you really can't expect much. I wouldn't come here for just a dinner in the dining room, because in general the food has never been worth it. It's like a chilis but the food is always disappointing ya know? The staff is friendly but no ones seems too concerned with being particularly great at their job. I would say as a restaurant it's pretty disappointing but the after-hours bar is pretty convenient and can be a good time! read more

When it's time for a steak and you don't feel like driving far, Applebee's is the place to go. The service has been painfully slow at times, and the portions can be quite small depending on what you order, but the food doesn't taste half-bad. If the service could catch up to the food they serve, it would be a very solid 3 review. read more

Was terrible, last time I went there was a few years ago, I thought I would give them a second chance, well no strike three for me. Last time I will ever go back there. $24.00 for two tiny paper cups of soup and one order of bread sticks, plus I gave a tip. Not feeling up to par, I order two orders of soups for myself and co worker, tomato basil and chicken tortilla, and an order of bread sticks. I had to go back inside because the bread sticks were not in my to go bag, and the tortilla soup was not even half full. They told me that is all that comes in the order (WOW, Iguana Joe's soup is a huge bowl, same price). The soups were not homemade, cold, and the chicken soup was full of fat. My coworker apologized for wasting my money, cause he could not even eat the tortilla soup. Nasty! Oh and did I mention the smell of cigarettes is horrible in restaurant. read more

Perfect little neighborhood restaurant/bar to stay up late and drink $2 beers until they kick you out. Highly recommend.

Usually have good service, but bartender named Sammie.... rude and complains about her job. Will not go back if she is working.

Came in for lunch, stood at the front door for a while. Finally step in. Saw several employees sitting in a booth cussing loudly. After making my presents known, the hostess seemed to be rather bothered I'd shown up. Took forever to get a bowl of cold soup which my server happily took back to stick in the microwave. Terrible service. And it stinks like cigarette smoke. read more

I have only eaten at Applebee's a few times because I'm on Dialysis and restricted from lots of foods and I am allergic to mushrooms and I've been able to eat a few of their meals without it swelling me! I called today and I asked for the meal again today and I was told that the mushrooms are mixed in with the veggies and if I have had it twice then that meant that they had removed the mushrooms themselves. Wow! What an Awesome team of employees from the manager Jocelyn to the server Meghan i am in total awe Thanks Applebee's for choosing such Awesome employees!!! Sincerely, Mary Alice read more

If I could give less than one star I would. The smell of cigarettes/ashtrays is so overwhelming that it was impossible to eat here.

My favorite pecan crusted chicken salad is no longer on the menu so I opted for the asian chicken salad instead. Idk what I expected but I was disappointed. The iceberg lettuce tasted fresh out of a bag and was a bit wilted. There wasn't much to this salad however, the grilled chicken was nicely seasoned and the caesar dressing never disappoints. P.S. Easy on those crunchy noodles! read more

It's an Applebee's. What should you expect? Corporate owned food and menu. Want better go to a mom and pop place.
