    Rare when requested medium.
    Schuyler S.

    Stopped by the Goodyear Applebee's for lunch with family (4 adults, 2 infants), and it was a letdown from start to finish. The hostess ignored my request for two slings for the babies and seated us in a corner booth, saying we could "fit them in." Our server never introduced herself and brushed off a simple question about beers on tap with, "I'm not sure--pretty much anything we carry is on tap." And the ambiance was kind of dead for a football Sunday. Appetizer wings looked cooked in dirty oil. I ordered the sirloin with shrimp parmesan, mashed potatoes, and green beans (they were out of broccoli--on a Sunday). Steak was supposed to be medium but came out blue rare, swimming in butter. The server vanished, so we had to ask the bartender for help. Manager brought it back--still undercooked--and joked about it. They comped the meal, but the service and food quality were awful. No one seemed to care.

    My daughter and I visited this whole location on Friday January @ 1pm after school. We were excited to visit this location because of the reviews on Google and the special they brought back for a limited time only. Parking is convenient and the plaza next to other businesses and we were greeted right away by the hostess and seated. Our waitress came to the table. She was very attentive and kind. We ordered two $14.99 special's all you can eat which we both started off with/ bbq boneless wings. Once our order is came, we were shocked on how large the boneless wings are, and was very pleased with the amount of sauce on the wings because previously at other locations, the barbecue sauce or the sauce. It was always lacking, but not this time.. The amount of wings sides and fries were delicious and we were able to order a second set and was filling. The waitress was kind enough to bring us a sample of the lemon butter Parmesan wings to try in addition to our barbecue wings. We would like to visit this location again for the special and hope the success and the size of the portions stays the same consistently.

    Update: Tonight the steak was fantastic! Nice improvement. I'm impressed. Our waitress was Abby and I would be very happy if I always had her. I'm glad I gave them another try. Alright Applebee's challenge on...I upgraded you to 4 stats. The 5th start will only come from keeping up the good work.

    Nice Bar!

    Well based on my experiences in another city, I can't beleive I'm giving Aplebee's a 5-Star review, but the folks in Goodyear earned it! Honestly, it's been years since we have dined at Applebee's. our local restaurant in CA. was terrible. The food was so, so and and the service was the worst anywhere! Well, we now live in Arizona and get bored with the same old restaurants, so we decided to give the Applebee's in Goodyear a try. So, we went out on a Friday night, and even though the place was fairly full, we were seated in 5 minutes. The first change I noticed was the modern music which was enjoyable even though I had never heard the tunes. That alone gave the place a more modern and trendy feel. Additionally, the place was clean and well decorated. The employees seemed happy and our sever Catherine M. was there at every opportunity. She and the other employees provided excellent service! I ordered the fried shrimp and my wife ordered a chicken salad. The shrimp weren't large, but very flavorful, more so than most. They taste like gulf shrimp to me which are my favorite. For dessert, we tried your mini cinnamon rolls. They were death by cinnamon, but what a way to go! Last, the manager stopped by our table to see how everything was. I appreciate that. It is a sign that he cares about his restaurant. I told him my story and he told me it made his night. I was happy to hear that. Anyway, you folks have earned my business back (at least in Goodyear).. I think you folks have really made some positive changes. Thanks you and see you soon!

    This place is more like a nightclub. Loud music and not even in English. It's okay not to have a jukebox.

    It was our first time visiting Bubba's 33, and I have to say, this place exceeded our expectations!…read moreWe ordered the Krispy Shrimp, Krispy Fried Pickles, a pizza, and a mocktail, and everything was absolutely delicious. The pictures truly don't do the food justice -- the flavors, portions, and presentation were even better in person. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, with screens throughout the entire space, making it a perfect spot to catch a game or enjoy a sports event with friends and family. What really stood out, though, wasn't just the food or the atmosphere -- it was the incredible customer service. Even though the restaurant was completely packed, the staff made us feel like we were their only table. They were attentive, friendly, and consistently checked in on us throughout our visit. When the manager found out it was our first time there, he personally came over to welcome us, gave us coupons for a future visit, and made sure we felt appreciated. That extra touch truly made an impression. It's rare to find a busy restaurant where the team still takes the time to make every guest feel valued, and Bubba's 33 absolutely delivered. The customer service was top-notch and really set this experience apart. We'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. Great food, great atmosphere, and outstanding hospitality -- this place knocked it out of the park!

We went on a Wednesday evening around 7pm and were seated immediately without a wait. Our server was friendly and approachable. We started with the Jalapeño Bomber Dip. Flavor-wise, it was solid; however looks-wise it's a tad unappealing. It leans heavily into a shade of gray not commonly seen in most foods. The Fish and Chips were very good. Great portion size; the plate comes with 3 pieces. We both ended up taking one piece home. The inside of the restaurant was clean and inviting. I'd check them out again for sure.

I know what it's like to have good people. Vanessa is exceptional. The food was great. We got a couple of burgers. Tasty. I had the onion rings with mine -- a very generous portion and also tasty. Music volume was at a tasteful level. It was present but didn't get in the way of conversations. Much appreciated.

The dining room is very spacious with many TVs and a pool table in the corner. While the food was "fine," the Happy Hour was actually solid if only typical. Your draft beers were $3, and we ordered a mixture of rum and cokes and an espresso martini. We also ordered some Happy Hour waffle fries and cauliflower "wings," which were over-fried, but the 14" honey hot pepperoni pizza was solid and made up for the appetizers.

I love supporting local businesses but I dont think this place will stay open long if they don't make changes. The first time the server was nowhere to be found for almost 30 minutes. After we finally ordered we barely saw them the rest of the night. The second time, the hostess was very rude and didn't say one word during our entire interaction which was weird and off-putting. She brought us waters and slammed them on the table and stormed off. The other servers were dressed very unprofessionally. One was wearing huge baggy pants and had dirty unwashed hair. Our server was not very attentive. We ordered one of the only beers they had and were told it wasnt cold. We ordered ranch and they brought us out what was essentially a container of mayonnaise. I mentioned it to the server and she said she didn't like it either and that its always different. It's not that difficult to make ranch or notice how bad it is and fix it. There doesn't seem to be training or management very involved in caring about or implementing quality at this restaurant

We will definitely go back - the service was great and it's a pretty cool spot. I think next time I'm going to try their hot chicken sandwich.

    Absolutely unacceptable and honestly shocking behavior from security here…read more My friend went out for what should have been a normal night, and instead was met with completely unprofessional and aggressive treatment. Her ID had a small dent in it -- still clearly valid -- and instead of handling the situation appropriately, the security guard snapped her ID leaving it almost completely in half. Destroyed it. Then turned her away. That is not only disrespectful, it's completely out of line. Security's job is to verify IDs, not damage personal property. There are proper procedures for questionable IDs, and this was NOT one of them. No apology, no attempt to resolve the situation -- just unnecessary force and a complete lack of basic respect. If this is how they treat people at the door, I can't imagine how the rest of the establishment operates. I would strongly recommend going somewhere else where staff know how to handle situations professionally. I'm just curious - is the security guard now going to pay for her new ID?? This is OUTLANDISH behavior coming from a plain old Jane of a security guard. Clearly he didn't make the cut at the police academy...
