We used to think Applebees was a good place until we ate at the Dickinson North Dakota location. We ordered the Fiesta Chicken meal. Our food was so salty it was almost inedible but we were hungry and I just drank a lot of water. The waitress was nice but seemed insincere when we expressed our dismay. She asked if we wanted to talk to the manager and I said yes. The manager came out and we told him about the high salt levels in the food, he seemed concerned but I suspect he thought we were looking for free food. No not true. The waitress said she would give us a discount but that didn't happen. I will think twice about going to Applebees maybe never again! read more

Applebees killed it. Chicken Wontons, Pickle Fries, Mozzarella Sticks and Pretzel Sticks hit the spot. The Bahama Mama was a great addition to wash it down. The highlight of the meal was our outstanding service provided by Trisha. Super friendly and very pleasant. A very enjoyable evening. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - American Near Me - Dickinson, North Dakota

The bartender refused to wash any of the dishes, so she would just leave them on the counter and wander around. She got in a verbal argument with one of the customers, swearing across the bar, the middle aged couple left and the manager didn't really seem to know what to do so I left. It was too disgusting to order food and unsanitary. I can't believe You would try to run a business in this disarray. Absolutely disgusting. read more

We had dinner here and it was quite busy but not wait to be seated. We were quickly seated in a booth and our waitress Lady was attentive and served us quickly. The food was well prepared typical Apple bee fair. The new watermelon lemonade flavor is a great addition. The kids menu kept our kids entertained long enough for the food to arrive. Only detractors was one of the booth bench seats was not on level ground and every time we or the neighbor table moved the whole bench teeter tottered. We weee in and out 45 minutes. read more

Their food was terrible I ordered nachos that was a joke they put the nacho chips in a container like what you would get at a convenience store.no onions,big huge slice of jalapeño with seeds left in.everything had to be put together as it was a 2go not impressed will never eat there again read more

Steak was terrible, and several items were not available, service was slow as well... I wouldn't go back...

It's your typical Applebees Chain Restaurant. As we entered the establishment we encountered a waitress that didn't acknowledge that we were even at the Hostess Stand, she could have said "Welcome" someone will be with you shortly, just walked by like we didn't exist. The nice thing is the Host did show up as he had been cleaning tables, to accommodate more customers, he was pleasant, friendly and very helpful. We got seated immediately, of course he had to wipe down the table and chairs as they were dirty from previous customers. Our waitress (Sandra S) was a pure pleasure, very attentive and helpful. She wanted to make sure we had a pleasurable dining experience. The Asian Chicken Salad was good, Crispy Chicken was a little overdone or had been sitting in a warmer dish in the kitchen to long but again I understand. Chicken Quesadilla was good as well. read more

Moved to Dickinson a few days ago and was so happy that there was an Applebee's. What a great experience. Michelle is the best behind the bar. Trisha, always has a smile on her face and is so friendly. Mariah goes above and beyond and always has a smile on her face. Because of those 3 Applebee's will be my place to be. Applebee's is lucky to have them. read more

Restaurant is in a great location. When we first walked in we were "greeted" by a lady who I think might've been on her lunch break because she had a mouth full of food. She looked at my wife and I and with a straight face just said "2?" The server was friendly. Our fries had a hair on it. The burger and wings were great. The fiesta lime chicken was not so good. It had a very acidic taste and I could not finish it. read more

Went to Applebee's for dinner and didn't find a single, solitary vegan menu item. I can't fault this particular restaurant for giving a significant constituency the short shrift since that's a corporate issue, though. We decided just to have tortilla chips and a beer; the total came to $18.50, which is hugely overpriced, especially since ¾ of the chips were tiny, broken bits. The floor was littered with napkins, the restroom had broken fixtures; all in all this restaurant gives off the vibe that management is just barely keeping things going. On the plus side, the service was quick and friendly. read more

Went for dinner a couple nights ago... The Bourbon Street Mushroom Swiss Burger was excellent! Must try! I'll be ordering that again. On the flip side... I've always known AppleBee's to have good drinks. But this visit, they were a waste of money. Bartender was extra stingy with the alcohol. Tasted like we were drinking juice! read more

Unfortunately they need to retrain all staff especially the male host who is rude. I was there on Friday celebrating but my afternoon was ruined by a male host who was rude to us after I asked if I could be seated elsewhere. Then he seemed to be nicer to people who were white so I'm not sure if he was just racist. I placed my order with the server who was nice but the host started cleaning the table next to us by throwing dishes around and looking at us with anger. When I asked to speak to the manager I quickly realized the host was related to the manager because they looked like each other a lot. I showed the manager another review about a rude male host assuming he must be the same person because it was the same situation. I asked the manager to cancel my order and went to Lemon Grass restaurant, I'm glad we did. The food and service at Lemon Grass restaurant is far better:) read more

We came on a busy Saturday evening and the staff were all SO friendly and hard working. The food was fast and great!

Applebees is pretty average but this is surprisingly one I remember for being even less than that. Staff was pretty meh. Dirty tables. Sorry counters. Sat at the bar and had an appetizer and a few beers. Bar keep was nice enough but as I said it certainly wasn't your "friendly neighborhood spot." Guess it's a chain people recognize. Oil workers need to eat and it's no super pricey. But apart from it's location or other businesses being full I don't see why anyone would frequent this place. read more

Went in for a curb side pick up ordered they're four cheese Mac and cheese meal they neglected to put the four cheese on the pasta. Also ordered drinks and they neglected to put in straws. Highly do not recommend they're curbside pick up. read more

Awful inedible food. We got takeout and it was cold and only had some of the ingredients! My broccoli pasta had no broccoli and so on. Everything was extremely mushy. Couldn't eat it. read more

Eaten here 3 times. Last 2 were sh#$. They gave giftcard for trip 3. Tom the manager came , sat down while we were starting to eat. Gave his life story and preceded to insult my 14yr. old great niece about have low self esteem, because her hair was pink(doing it for attention.)Made her embarrased as hell. Told my niece and I we must also have low self esteem as we both had tattoo. Then I showed him our meal was burn as it was not eaten. Then he said his wife was a woman of color and he only time he deals with white women when he is at work, blamed not have immigrants there to work for our service and poorly made meal. Plus he had an $80,000 truck and a $400,000 house. I called Bismarcks office. They returned call, said they would call me back with follow up, still haven't heard anything. Aren't his comments rude and a lot racist toward white women in general but also judgemental towards women with tattoos. So, if you are a white women with tattoos or your children are amazing in any way, I urge you to stay away. Or they could be subject to ridicule. Thanks for the call back. read more

We were seated immediately at applebees after waiting 20 mins to be seated at Sanfords and never being acknowledged beyond a nod.Food and service were great! read more

Worst service I've ever had! Would seriously rate negative stars if I could. Waited 15-20 minutes for menus, waiter Andre was absolutely awful. One lady had to get her own menus, 2 ladies waiting at least 15-20 minutes got up and left beca of no menus. The fries were coated in salt and pepper, like someone dumped both on top. My boyfriend had to go up to the bar and ask for a refill because our server was nowhere to be found. The excuse was they had a party of 30. They were barely busy at all....don't waste your time or money. read more

Steak was good, but the veggies were cold. I mean COLD!! Waitress was nice, but uninterested. Room was extremely cold! Bring a coat! read more

Had a great meal at a very fair price-served by a very pleasant and professional server. Place was extremely clean. Thanks for doing things right and for being open in spite of the china virus. read more

I literally barfed up everything I ate here. It's weird and gross. Beware if you have a weak stomach

Used to be really good. It went downhill pretty fast after the manager passed away. We have tried going there several times over the years but finally stopped as we realized it was progressively getting worse. Last time my chickens wasn't cooked enough and the sizzling plate was filthy. I lost my appetite. It was pretty gross. Unfortunately this isn't the only poor place to eat in Dickinson. I don't understand how some of these places are even open read more

I would literally rate negative stars for the experience I just had. Walked in and was seated at the bar, came for a ribeye steak and a beer. Sat at the bar for 8 minutes without so much as being acknowledged so I stood up and left. I called immediately after I got into my car and managed to drive all the way home after being placed on hold for seven minutes without answer by someone seeking the manager after I asked for one. I hung up and called back 3 times to get through on option 3. I explained what had just happened to the gal who answered and asked again for a manager. I was none to kindly greeted by a Brianna who did not state if she was a manager. I explained what had occurred and expressed my anger and dismay at being treated this way. She felt it was wise to tell me if I was upset with them being short staffed I could come work there myself. In my life I have never been treated in this manner by any restaurant staff, ever. Whoever is running this joint, should think long and hard about the 5 or so hundred dollars a year you just lost over one smart mouthed punk of an employee. read more

And the Oscar for America's Most Mediocre Chain Restaurant goes to..........Applebees Ding Ding Ding About the best thing I can say about is that it's never put me in the hospital! Insipid and bland are the words that best describe this place. Ive dragged there several times and have yet to find something that felt it justified the purchase. Try a little harder Applebees...I live in the oil patch without many options and I'm starting to think the chinese buffet that makes me cough up mysterious cat furballs, might be a better option read more

My Applebee's! My husband and I eat here for a special treat whenever we get to Dickinson. Great servers and food! read more

Nothing like being served pasta from yesterday and sour week old thawed strawberries. The Alfredo sauce was like buttered noodles

This place looked nice and the staff was really friendly, but I feel that the food is overpriced especially considering the quality of it. The chips were stale, the toppings for the nachos were all cold and not much on it, and the chicken was hard, like it had been reheated multiple times. I got a mango lemonade and they charged an extra 40 cents for a gummy candy on top I didn't even ask for. Wouldn't stop there in the future. read more

Solid, reliable food. As good as any other Applebee's. If you're in a new town and want a good American dinner, Applebee's is a safe bet. This Applebee's is no exception. read more

This is an Applebee's, but quite frankly it is the most bland food I've ever had at an Applebee's. I assume it has removed all seasoning from the food for North Dakota like everywhere else here has done. Seriously, North Dakotans think mayonnaise is spicy. The food aside, I ordered a tall bud light with my dinner and when it came to the table I noticed a rather large piece of glass in the bottom of the glass. I sent it back and the waitress brought out another beer, also with a piece of broken glass in the bottom. I called the Manager over brought the situation to his attention, he apologized and he brought me a beer with yes; a piece of glass in the bottom in it. I realize at times I can be a hard person to be around but you don't have to try to kill me. read more

For a larger chain restaurant. Great neighborhood bar the drinks are reasonably priced and the bartenders are friendly and will call you a cab if need be . The food at this Applebee's was also delicious. They offer specials like two dishes for $20 dollars . Good spot for a date of just grabbing a drink and a meal. read more

I used to go here often as Dickinson doesn't have many options for restaurants. Needless to say I'm not impressed. The service is good if you get a good waiter. Otherwise the service is horrible. I'm writing this review on the behalf of customers using your debit/credit cards at your own risk. I forgot my wallet on the table somehow one evening. I realized it was missing the following evening. I called the only place that I went after work that day to see if it was there... yes it was at Applebee's. No one called me to say that I had forgotten my wallet however... hmmm. I raced to go and pick it up and when I got there the hostess said rudely that the manager wasn't there and they didn't have the keys to the office. I demanded my wallet and they wouldn't give it to me. I waited for almost a half hour until the manager got back to the building (wherever they were before) to give me my wallet. This was a Friday I got my wallet back. By the following Tuesday I had CREDIT CARD FRAUD!!!! I highly believe that this had something to do with my wallet being held and the shady people there. Once again use your cards at your own risk here!!!! read more

I would like to give this place a MINUS (-) 4 STARS but I can't. If I ever eat at this Applebee's it would be a miracle . The worst food I have ever eaten in my whole life (maybe McDonald's would have been better).We weren't out for a special occasion but we weren't going cheap either. I ordered the 12oz steak and they bought me two six ounce pieces that look like and tasted like someone cut the bottom of their shoe and cooked. My husband ordered the baby back ribs and they were any thing but fall off the bone. We complained to someone who we thought was the manager, he was definitely either not the manager or he is the WORST manager of corporate dining. To his credit he did return one of my 6oz pieces because I couldn't even touch it. When it came back raw I was done. My husband ribs were so tough he could barely get them off the bone at all. The "manager" only compensated our sodas and one appetizer for all our food being crap. I have been to an Outback Steakhouse where I sent one thing back and they compensated our entire meal for 6 people and also gave us $80 in gift cards to give them another chance. SHAME ON YOU APPLEBEES YOU HAVE LOST A LOCAL CUSTOMER FOR GOOD. read more

Poor service. We arrived after 9p. Took forever to get service. People were more worried about ending shift than providing service. Servers were swearing while chatting among themselves. Restaurant was dirty with multiple tables with multiple dishes waiting to be cleared. read more

We can usually depend on Applebee's for a decent meal. I don't know if the boom is affecting the service, or if the cool was just being lazy, but we were less than pleased. I ordered the rib plate, something I usually don't there. My ribs were mushy and had been microwaved. It tasted horrible. With this Applebee's it's Russian roulette for a decent dinner. read more

Very inconsistent. Good service but terrible food. Been here multiple times and have nothing good to say about the place

I mean...it's Applebee's...their Mucho Margaritas are my favorite ever. Looove their Blackberry Sangria. Most of the staff is very friendly and attentive. I totally recommend their soft pretzels and beer cheese. read more

This is a disgrace look at this burnt egg with no hash brown under neither burger burnt .. Server said they is hash brown there is not any read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - American Near Me - Dickinson, North Dakota

Was not impressed .... kind of disappointed honestly. The food was decent but a drunk waitress who had just got off the clock kept coming over to our table and picking up my little boys and making over them ... it made us and my children feel uncomfortable. read more

Good atmosphere made bad by a foul mouth table of Blue Hawk Audio video employees. Food is as to be expected from a chain restaurant which leaves me to comment about the service. Slow food is trendy in some parts of the country but not to be expected from a major player in the food industry. I know they use a lot of microwaves in their kitchen which doesn't bother me. The fact that the sauce had thickened in my chicken penne frightens me though. Almost sent it back but after a long wait but being my only meal of the day I endured as best I could. Love the half price appetizers and desserts. Will try it again someday. I will expect better service and food next time. read more
