Avoid the all you can eat wings/shrimp! The shrimp was mushy. The Buffalo wings were dry with maybe a 1/4 teaspoon of sauce.

Went in on a Saturday evening. The hostess was so sweet and quick . The beers were ice cold and the burgers were good! Stephanie our server was attentive and quick . We were honestly unsure about going with the low star rating.. meant nothing. we were happy with the food and service and to top it off had the two for $22. read more

All things considered, I had a decent meal at this Applebees location. The staff was kind and attentive.

I've been here a few times now, the wait hasn't been long. You can get a seat at a table, booth or even at the sports bar if you like. I've had a few of the dishes but my favorite would be the par-magian shrimp and steak. Damn it was so good, by the time I remembered the picture I had already eaten it. The personal are friendly and helpful. read more

Second best cheeseburger in the whole valley. Service can be slow when it's busy, but the staff is extremely friendly and they always take care of me and my wife excellently. read more

The service was good. The food was bad and got worse. I've been sick since I ate here. Starting with nausea that turned to finally vomiting at 345am. Don't eat here you will most likely get sick. read more

It's so bad here I want to give it zero stars but that's not possible so I'll give them one. Literally worst service I ever experienced at an Applebees from having a waitress with a shitty attitude to ending my night with her tampering with my food by serving me a completely FROZEN cake desert that is supposed to be served HOT and NO apology. If you want to avoid a bad time, DON'T COME HERE! read more

We called to see if the Superbowl was going to be on here with the volume on and was assured it would be. We show up and the Superbowl is on silent... Then as we are sitting at the bar, the two women bartenders COMPLETELY ignored us. I understand they are busy doing their thing, but it was like we didn't even exist, which did not make me feel very good. I left the restaurant after 20 minutes and not being acknowledged at all, but my friend stayed. Eventually he was served some drinks and appetizers as he watched the Superbowl in silence. Luckily, by half-time the volume was turned on because some women at the bar were complaining to the owners that they wanted to hear Shakira and JLo. After that, the volume stayed on and my friend could hear the last half of the Superbowl. read more

Visited this location yesterday afternoon. We had a friendly waitress that took our order and arrived promptly with it...cold. The Ribblet basket and mashed potatoes for my spouse; and for me a grilled chicken breast and fries. Waitress takes the order after we tell her it was cold, only to come back with it microwaved. Microwaving potatoes dries them up and you'd think they'd know that. Ribblets were terrible as well. Not meaty whatsoever - more fat than anything; loss of appetite for us. My chicken breast was somewhat cold, but I was starving and ate it as is. Not what I've come to expect from Applebee's - I should of visited the La Quinta location which was my initial thought. I can't recommend this location sadly. read more

Hey, if you want to escape the HEAT during your lunch break from the court, this place will qualify. The service at first was a bit slow. Then, things picked up and I was able to order a Grilled Chicken Caesar Wrap and a Sam Adams. The pricing for the return on quality was steep. They also had tons of TV's but they were all playing replays of past events. I'd rather watch cartoons or CNN in lieu of that garbage. The restroom was clean enough and the proximity for an afternoon trial was the best part. EXCEPT for that COLD BEER! I will make my way down to Huerta's next time. read more

We inquired by phone about wait time. "I'm not allowed to give out that information." Can we sit and eat at the bar? "I'm not allowed to give out that information." Asked another question; same answer. It might as well have been a robot, but it wasn't! Lost our business before we even walked in the door. read more

Came in Saturday night, no servers so we went to bar.Woukd be great if bartender handling my beer, utensils and food wore a mask, at least out of courtesy. Manager did his best but server was slow as F. read more

Update!!!!! Even a few months after my first few experiences here they only get more welcoming. I came on a Saturday night and we got sat right away in a kind of romantic corner lol jk. It was very relaxed with low lighting which was welcoming and our server was a great ice breaker making us feel even more welcomed. I usually get the artichoke and mozzarella sticks munch on while I enjoy a drink (very rare). The blue Hawaii was a bit strong but then again I drink no more than 7 days a year so everything taste strong to me. This time the food came faster to us and was a little cold so they may have pre made the food a little to early. Minus one star for that. If I was buzzed it would have been okay but I wasn't yet Thank Tara for the welcoming vibe and hospitality. read more

Every Friday , my buddies and I go play some baseball. We burn some calories. So it's a nice spot to go for a quick bite that isn't too heavy for the night.. Grilled Chicken Breast/green beans/broccoli.. less than 600 calories!!! Awesome choice.. totally recommend . Heart of indio, good people, nice ambience. Restrooms are always clean .. nice spot . read more

Horrible service. Took forever to get seated when the place was pretty empty at 2pm. When we did no one took our order for like 25 min not even our drinks. Food was fine. The sever did not come once to ask if we needed anything or refills. We waited another 30 min after we had asked for our check! It literally the worst service. Would not recommend. read more

Currently here.. Came over right after work craving some double crunch wings. Placed three orders of wings, to me & my friends disappointment bartender comes back saying they're all out..

Applebees is a great place to eat and have drinks especially during their happy hour specials. However, the hostess at the Indio location is always rude and extremely unprofessional. She rolls her eyes, answers simple questions with a very rude tone, and purposely went out of her way to seat other people before my party. A person with this behavior should NOT be placed as the greeter/ hostess if Applebees wants to keep clientele. Name of this person is Jahretzi. read more

Food was good, but service was bad. Also there is a charge for coffee refills! Was not told of this until the bill came and there was 6 $2.19 charges for coffee refills. Any one else have that problem? We should have been told. Worst service EVER! COULDN'T LEAVE A TIP. AGAINST MY PRINCIPLES. BEING A SERVICE WORKER FOR YEARS I HAVE ALWAYS TIPPED WELL. read more

Service was okay but we paid with card and left cash for tip, and my card was charge $20 more than my bill, I guess my husband left the tip part blank instead of $0 on the receipt, very dishonest workers read more

As a foreign tourist I had a very good experience in terms of food and service, the young woman who attended us was very kind, had a lot of patience to explain us about the menu and give us suggestions. Another important point that I value is that they have Spanish-speaking waiters and that is very important for foreign tourists. The food was very tasty, I loved that the meat I ordered was at the cooking point I ordered. read more

You get what you pay for, this is a sit down fast food restaurant, the prices and the ambiance give it away. Other rather than that pretty good read more

We have been there 5 times since opening this was by far the worst customer service and restaurant experience we have had thus far. We sat and watched as 3 other people had service issues that were mishandled by the management on duty. Basically, there was a drunk that had obviously been over served alcohol and was disruptive for everyone at the bar, she showed her breasts to the bartenders and all they did was laugh. In addition, one customer complained about his portion size (he was accustomed to) in reference to the other local Applebees and was told corporate has changed plates, there was a customer who asked if it was possible to steam an Asian style appetizer and was told they don't steam things (meanwhile steamed broccoli was served). He said to us "how do they steam the broccoli then, but can't steam pot-stickers"? Don't go to Indio Applebees if you are a military veteran unless you have your dog-tags or a tattoo to prove it. The manager was so ignorant to even ask for such items and challenge the integrity of a proud military service member. Only people with service related disabilities get ID cards.......I was refused a posted 20% discount all because I didn't have my dog-tags or a tattoo to prove it. I don't even have a tattoo and my dog-tags are framed next to my honorable discharge!!!!!! Management was very aggressive towards guests with service complaints and not one single guest was accommodated for their legitimate food service issues. The female manager stood in front of me and ruined my and my loved ones evening with her aggressive behavior regarding asking for a posted military discount. Don't go to the Indio Applebees if you want good service, and by all means don't expect anything if you have an issue with your food, drunk over served patrons, or posted discounts. read more

I'd think twice about going to this location. If their employees have covid they still have to come in. Even if they can't find someone to cover for them. read more

This Applebee's is located near the courthouse in Indio California well needed. Our server was a delight. The barbecue ribs and steak salad were delicious. I would have to say I did expect a little more steak in my salad. read more

Really bad service. Waited over 15 minutes. Had to call someone over to help us. Waited another 15 for our drinks . Till I asked the host about our drinks. Asked for Arnold Palmer and they give me something else. Cup was literally filled with ice. Been waiting forever for my food. That I'm taking it take out instead. Apple bees do better .. read more

They have advertising for football season but don't have the games available. Just so you know they do not carry NFL packages. Would give zero stars however servers are always kind read more

Really cool place to eat. Love the pasta Alfredo. Great Staff. Very chill place to have fun.

This is corporate own business and yet there is only 2 servers at this branch. Terrible hostess, don't know how to run this branch.

Good food, nice and dark but still casual and fun. Good food. My favorite is the bourbon chicken and shrimp on the 2 for $25 menu read more

Came to Applebees @ Indio around 10:00 pm and It was mistake! It was very loud, they were vacuuming right next to me and the blender was non stop! I couldn't wait to get out of all that noise but the waiter took forever to get my check.. terrible service! read more

The moment I came into Applebees to pick up a to-go order the service was terrible. The first girl to attend me was too anxious to leave on break and told me rudely to go the the front and wait. The hostess there did not even acknowledge me and when they finally found time to attend me they said they didnt have my order. If I could leave ZERO stars I would. read more

Came here with the family for dinner, and had a very good experience. The hostess Audrey was very friendly and quick to seat us.

And got us what we needed very promptly and had a very good attitude... the food was excellent. we would definitely return read more
