    Felix our server was awesome! Everything arrived as ordered and perfectly warm. Manager did a great job bringing out food also so everyone could eat at the same time. There were 12 of us celebrating our friend's birthday! Area was quiet so we could enjoy our conversations with our friends.

    Applebee's has been an Edison Rt 1 staple for a loooong time. Coming here for a little family dinner, they were a bit understaffed, but the wait staff are clearly managing as best as possible. We got the 2 for $28-$32 ranges with the spinach and artichoke dip and buffalo bites. The Buffalo bites were a bit too crusty, definitely could do with more meat and less breading. The spinach and artichoke dip was amazing though, definitely nice and melty with fresh chips! I personally got the ribs this time, and can say though it did't look much, it was a pwrfect combo of savory tang and sweetness. Meanwhile, someone else in my part ordered the steak and I must admit, their cook quality has drastically decrease with their steak. Avoid the steak, and I think you are golden in having a nice dinner out here!

    Applebee's is one of those spots you remember from growing up but seem so uninspired. I was hesitant to eat here but my girls have been fascinated with the concept so I figured why not? The standard seating for a bar + grill. Families were seated away from the bar area. The children's menu was pretty varied. Pick a drink. Pick a dish. Extras for smoothies and dessert. My oldest did the taco and my youngest chose the Mac n cheese. I went with the southwest burrito bowl in a effort to pick a healthy choice. I ate the whole bowl. Simple food. The chicken had the packaged flavor like it was cooked who knows when. The rest was very fresh. My girls ate their whole meal too. Good price point for the kids menu. Nice people in general and very kid friendly option.

    My Southwest Chicken bowl was super good! The bathroom was clean. The mozzarella sticks were perfectly crisped and Will S. Provided us with great service. There is a parking lot available for use.

    Jasmin is absolutely such a sweet heart!

    Clockwise: Chicken Wonton Tacos, classic Boneless Wings, Mozzarella Sticks

    TLDR: your everyday Applebees Ordered chicken wonton tacos, mozzarella sticks, and one of the 5 dollar drink specials. I'm a sucker for Applebees half price apps, especially the classic boneless Buffalo wings and mozzarella sticks. Tried the chicken wonton tacos for the first time, and they were a lot better than I expected. The 5 dollar drink was really sweet - about what you'd expect. Stretchy mozzarella? Check. Crispy fried stuff? Check. Large sweet drink? Check. This location didn't have the frozen drink, but I would still go back to hangout with friends here.

    My boyfriend and I decided to meet up for food and drinks after work. When we arrived we parked in their parking lot. There was a tiny wait to get seated but they moved quickly. We sat at a table by the bar socially distanced from others. Our server/bartender was Ally and she did her best because she was alone in the bar area. She was attentive as well. My boyfriend ordered wings and fries with a vodka tonic as well as their $5 snowball drink. He said the wings were ok but the fries were good. I only had 2 vodka tonics and they were good. It was a cheap date with no issues.

    My boys love eating here so I decided to bring them out for dinner after my son's victory in a football game. I ordered the blackened salmon with mashed potatoes and broccoli. The salmon was cooked nicely. My sons both ordered the four cheese Mac n cheese with honey sweet chicken tenders. The portions were so large that they couldn't finish which was surprising because both of them are usually big eaters. They said it was a tasty dish, so the leftovers came home with us.

    Looking for the best wings in the area? Look no further! Tap and Growler is your local corner bar…read morethat makes the best wings with the biggest variety of flavors, hands down. Always cooked crispy to perfection without having to specify, which is how it should be. No stretchy chicken skin or rubbery meat found here! Each time we visit, we get three orders of wings to split and usually another sauce or two on the side to try. We really enjoy the dry rubs and they don't skimp on the seasoning either. There's always plenty floating in the bottom of the basket for extra dipping. I couldn't go through all the wing flavors we've had since that would take quite some time, but you should definitely try the Chupacabra and squeeze the lime. The sweet potato fries with Chipotle aioli are definitely worth getting too. Just a heads up, this place can get REAL busy during peak times (ie: Friday and Saturday night), so plan your visit accordingly. There are usually 1-2 bartenders who are also acting as servers, so it may take a few extra minutes, but it is well worth the wait. Staff has always been friendly and welcoming. TLDR: Great local bar serving up the best wings in town. Give them a few extra minutes to serve you if you show up on a Friday or Saturday

You should order your food before your drinks because the food takes awhile but it is so worth it. The food comes out hot. The wings were so crispy and we had so many options for dry and wet sauces. I got the Nashville hot dry rub. They get a really good coat of seasoning in the wings but I did wish it was SPICIER given it was three flames (the highest). Looking forward to going back and trying a new sauce.

They quoted us an hour and 45 minute wait -- way too long -- so we made a game-time decision and went to Miller's Ale House instead. Honestly? Very glad we did. We stopped by on a warmer night after a week of being snowed in, so I'm guessing they may have been caught a little off guard because they were definitely understaffed. We were quoted a 35-minute wait and ended up being seated in about 30, which was appreciated. There were quite a few empty tables, but it was clear they were trying to keep the load manageable for the kitchen. Our server Jack apologized for the backup and genuinely did his best to stay on top of things while juggling a lot of tables -- no complaints about the effort at all. We started with wings, which were solid. For entrées, we had the chicken quesadillas and the steak & shrimp combo -- both were good and hit the spot. Overall, it was a decent experience. Restaurant was clean and well kept. The only real downside was the lack of seating for people waiting -- we had to stand the entire 30 minutes, which wasn't the most comfortable. With a few adjustments on busy nights, this place could easily be a 5-star visit.

    I returned here after a long time away. The menu seemed to change on a few items. My thoughts on…read morewhat I had this time are below. Pretzel Bites - This time they had a honey mustard and regular cheese sauce. The honey mustard was pleasant, but the cheese sauce was thick, and force was really needed to get through to break it. Fiesta Nachos - This had tortilla chips with roasted sweet corn, queso, Pico de Gallo, jalapeno, lime crema, and avocado crema. We also added steak. This was the best item of the night. The steak was tasty and there was a nice blend of ingredients mixed in. Cheesy Macaroni Bites - This was fried macaroni and cheese. I do not remember ranch being served, but the tomato sauce was not bad. They were nicely fried, but they were just okay. Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza - This was alright. The crust was not very flavorful and cooked enough. There needed to be a bit more of a hot honey presence. Boneless Buffalo Wings - The Buffalo sauce powerful, but solid quality and nice cook on the chicken. Bone-In Wings - I had the BBQ, Buffalo, and Asian sesame flavors. The Asian sesame had a little kick, something about these intrigued me. The BBQ was a little sweet, probably due to the Dr Pepper addition? There was a little inconsistency on the wings as some needed to be a little crispier. Buffalo Chicken Dip - This was very cheesy. It needed a little more buffalo sauce, but good chunks of chicken present.
