A friend of mine and I ate at Applebees in Kalispell yesterday. The service and food were both remarkable. Ryan waiting on our table. He was a very good waiter, attentive and accurate with our order and our individual requests. The service team worked well together. read more

Absolutely horrible service. We were a party of four. We were seated and ordered appetizers of chips and salsa. And a cocktail. The cocktails arrived after a few minutes. But after waiting for 40 minutes for the appetizers, finally had to request the manager. After that a few moments later, the chips and salsa arrived. After approximately 20 more minutes, the server never returned and had to ask the manager to return again for our server to take our order. The server arrived and took our order without writing anything down. Approximately 15 minutes later, the server came back and said he had forgotten the order because he had taken a personal phone call and couldn't remember it. We then place the order again. Nearly 30 minutes later the food still had not arrived and requested the manager for a third time. After another long, wait, the food finally arrived and all four entrées were completely cold as if they had been sitting for quite some time. After requesting the manager for a fourth time foul, the manager didn't even respond and had to be located somewhere else in the restaurant. After complaining about the food and the complete lack of service, the manager did comp the meal which of course we did not eat anyway. Would highly not recommend this establishment read more

Food and service was good. I hadn't been to this location before. Our server has a great smile and fortunately, she was smiling all the time. I had a chicken Caesar salad and it was just ok. read more

I ordered a martini, waiter comes back says your margarita will be out soon. I said I ordered a martini, he says oh well it's already made, like I was just supposed to drink it. I said I cannot drink tequila it makes me sick that's why I order martinis. He messed up the other tables drink and acted like he didn't want to fix it. Even one of their meals was cooked incorrectly. Entire meal was a shit show. With the manager almost arguing with the next table and them leaving. Hubby ordered a double bacon cheeseburger (per usual) was cooked correctly. I ordered boneless Garlic Parmesan wings. The wings came on top of a pool of garlic butter WAY TOO MUCH. Was sorry I order it. Was not good. The bartender made my martini and it was delicious!!! The restaurant was clean. As info I LOVE APPLEBEES. read more

Food was good, service could be improved upon. Our order took advantage of Happy Hour and the Monday $11.99 Burger promotion but when we received our bill everything was marked at full price. Our waiter made numerous attempts to rectify the pricing and ultimately we were comped a hamburger to adjust for the overbilling. Our waiter was friendly and helpful but could use a little more attention to details. read more

After a long day sightseeing around the Flathead Valley in Montana. We were ready for a good sit-down meal. Driving around town we couldn't find a place we wished to eat, Well we finally found the right place for us, Applebee's. Everywhere we have been, Applebee's food have been great. We ordered a steak and prawns. Oh, it was so good and filling. The waitress was so friendly, and we shared stories back and forth and had many laughs together. The waitress was very professional and checked on us to see if everything was fine. It was. When she asked us if we were ready for the check. She went to get it and upon returning she said, "No charge!" she said another anonymous customer had paid our Bill. Wow! We were shocked. No one has ever done this for us in our 51 years of marriage. My wife and I had tears in our eyes that someone we didn't know would do such a kind thing. To our anonymous kindhearted friend, Thank You. Our bill was around $60. You can find nice kind people in the world! Just remember to "Pay It Forward!" read more

The poor bartender was overwhelmed because no body in the place was helping do anything. We were seated at a table so rickety the drinks would have spilt, so we moved ourselves to an around table more solid. Desiree our bartender/server came and took our order and apologized for the extreme waiting time, all the while the two gals in the back stood there watching her doing everything and stuffing their faces behind the back wall. It took forever for our food to arrive probably over 30 minutes and everything and I mean everything was cold. We had brought our friends from Calgary because they had never eaten at an Applebee's and in the past we've had pretty good experiences, but not tonight! When a young man came up named Noah ask how everything was? Neil our guest from Canada says everything's cold. The fries are freezing cold and they were, Noah didn't hesitate. He ran and got us a plate of warm fries. My wife's fish and chips were disgusting. No tartar sauce came with the meal and the fries cold. There is a 100% chance I will never go to that Applebee's again not sure what happened because when it was on the other side of town, it was decent not so much now. Desiree was running herself ragged and two hostesses walk to the back multiple times never lifting a finger to bus dishes or pretty much anything. The Manager should be fired, whomever it is has no leadership or organizational skills. read more

Word of advice: if you order off their website for carry out, make them open the bag(s) to verify that everything that was ordered is actually in the bag. If they get it wrong (as they did with our order last night) they act like 'well that's too bad' and that seems to be the end of it. To rectify the problem they need to 'contact corporate'. Which is what we've done. FYI... I'm not singling Applebee's out on this ... This advice is pertinent when ordering from ANY restaurant. read more

Rack of ribs are supposed to be fall off the bone tender but mine were burnt to them, that's not a joke. Ordered take out and the portion sizes for my appetizers as well as my friends were noticeably smaller than they were when we last ordered dine in. Spent $70 excluding tip and I feel totally ripped off. Hopefully this doesn't happen to every take out order. Will not be returning. read more

I haven't eaten at an Applebees for many years and was pleasantly surprised by how tasty our entrees were. Our server was very pleasant and helpful with all of our questions. The restaurant is pleasant and clean with good parking. I ordered an 8 ounce sirloin steak which was pretty darned good at an excellent price. My friend had salmon and was very pleased. read more

Service terrible, waiter was too busy running back and forth to other tables, waited 1:20 mins for food. Other tables was getting food next to us, coming and going. I don't understand if it was because we're native or if they just hire the wrong people not equipped for the job. read more

Walked into the kalispell restaurant and waited for over 15 minutes before anybody acknowledged I was there. Noted that people that came in after me were greeted. The place was fairly empty (maybe 10 tables occupied). Asked to speak to the manager and employee asked why. I reminded him I wanted to speak to a manager. Found another employee and asked him for the manager. He retrieved the manager and manager asked me what I needed with tone. I told him I was there for 15 minutes and nobody waited on me. Told him I was leaving. What an unfriendly place. Bartender approached me as I was leaving and I told her I was leaving. read more

Went for lunch in between appointments and errands and the service was fast, friendly, and attentive. It was busy and a bit crowded but I didn't mind that. Some of the furniture like our seats could definitely use an upgrade or perhaps a remodel. My family ordered the burgers and loved it. They were just nice classic burgers. The steak I had was cooked exactly how I liked it. It was a nice lunch. read more

My friend and I went to the kalispell Applebees to grab a quick bite to eat. I got the chicken salad and she got the broccoli pasta. Both felt so incredibly sick about 20 minutes after we left. Her chicken was nearly pink, mine was also underdone. The sodas we ordered were flat and had no flavor. Do not recommend. read more

I don't write reviews often at all but Im honestly disappointed on what my experience was here. I decided to go to dinner with my best friend and her boyfriend as we going the server or buss boy "Matthew" greets us and honestly his costumer service was very unprofessional and upsetting. As he was seating us he was using very strong and vulgar language, was getting snappy and getting an attitude with us just for coming in and this was honestly a very uncomfortable and upsetting situation and experience for me and my friends. And i would not to recommend anyone else to experience this. read more

I was in town for the night looking for a place to eat and haven't been to an Applebee's in a very long time. I might have come after a rush and was towards the end of dinner time. Most every table I saw was dirty, filled with dirty plates, bar table was dirty, floor was disgusting, etc. I didn't know where else to go or else I would have left. I sat at the bar and had to ask the bartender to please clean the counter and was surprised I had to point it out. I had a Caesar salad and side of Mac & cheese and a Blue Moon. The food and beer were fine. Now that I know the are a little better, I would certainly try somewhere else. read more

I travel for work and have been to a lot of restaurants in a lot of cities. Applebees in kalispell MT, has the best service I've seen in a long time. Everyone is a team, everyone is happy and helpful, the food was delicious and everyone was accommodating and so nice. The bartender was so sweet and kind. Even tho the host did triple seat her within 10 minutes 30 minutes before they closed, she handled it graciously. read more

Applebees in Kalispell does not honor advertised specials. All over the news about the all you can eat wing,riblet special,but not here at the Kalispell store.They make thier own rules at this store.I will stomach the poor quality food when they have specials but the food quality is to bad to pay full price.This is one of the worst managed store I have ever gone to.Would not recommend the Kalispell store. read more

It was great as always very good fresh food and the best onion soup and friendly happy go luck waitress

You got a damn good team there and you need to appreciate them by giving them a raise minimum wage for those people you have working for you suck appreciate them more give them a raise and I will tell everybody at the place to go. I will be back in to find out if they get a raise. Thank you. and the place was clean. It's highly appreciated. read more

I just wanted to give a little shout out to our waitress, Ashley, for the great service and great recommendations. The food itself was very enjoyable. Glad they had some healthy options. We were also very thankful that this place was even open. Upon speaking to the staff, lots of places have been severely understaffed, so be prepared. read more

Arrived around 10:00 pm and asked if they were still serving food, to which the server replied yes. The server who greeted us, however was not the person who was responsible for serving my friend and I. We waited for several minutes while the bartender/server finished flirting with a couple of other patrons before she came to take our drink orde (which she proceeded to mess up). After flirting with the other patrons again and doing at least one shot, the bartender/server delivered our drinks (not what we had ordered but at this point it was 10:20 and they supposedly closed at 11:00 so we did not say anything). She then returned to have another round with her other patrons and then came to get our order around 10:30. After about 15 minutes we asked where our orders were (we had attempted to order something easy and quick) only to be told the cook had already closed the kitchen BUT was proceeding to prepare our food. About 5 minutes later the food did arrive. It was tasty and they did not try to push us out at 11:00 (guess it was a good excuse for the bar to stay open for a little while longer). Food was good but the service was very poor. read more

Don't waste your money. Chips were stale, pasta cream dishes had no flavor. Bread sticks were hard and stale. Four cheese pasta had no cheese flavor or creaminess.(where's the cheese?)Steak was tough and not cooked well looked more grey then anything. Food was served coldish one can only guess it sat before waitress finally got around to bringing us our food. read more

Had two meals here while on vacation. Service was good, and meals tasty, and fresh. Tortilla was really good,

Horrible! Do not order from Door Dash! I didn't get soup, or shrimp. the meat was disgusting! The clearly do not like serving people or cooking their food. I will never order from them again!!! read more

Last night the food was great, service excellent and we had a pleasant evening. The salads were fresh and crisp, hamburger done perfectly, chicken fettuccine very tasty. All our drinks were made perfect. As we were leaving the manager thanked us for coming in. Very friendly and professional folks. read more

Well the majority of us have all been to Applebee's at one point or another. I'd say a very high percentage of them either don't return or have major complaints. Food is barely decent, wait staff is nice, and your wait time isn't overly long. Basically for what you're paying you're not getting very high quality food by any means. So if you're going to spend that kind of money, I personally would not choose Applebee's. Buffalo Wings, Caesar Salad, Chicken Strips, Fiesta Lime Chicken, Oriental Chicken Salad. read more

I loved my experience will be coming back the food was great our waitress Ashley was top notch she truly made the experience amazing so kind and bubbly read more

I walked in as a first time customer and walked out as a last time customer. Ordered the bbq ribs upon the recommendation of the waitress. After waiting forever I received a plate with a rack of dried up cold pork with a cold glaze slapped on it. I picked up the end rib as you would normally and found that it did not break away as most tender rib slabs would. I then tried to break one off with my fork. Failed again. Then I took the fork and serrated knife and could not cut through the meat. I though I had hit bone but no the entire slab was so tuff I couldn't cut it. The waitress came over and asked how the ribs were as she obviously noted I had pushed the plate away. I said "inedible". She said "no that's not possible." I thereupon handed her the serrated knife and invited her to give it a stab. She couldn't penetrate the hard dried out jerky-like meat. She then said "oh you're right, I'll give you a 50% discount". I was shocked that she didn't offer to comp the entire entree. Sure enough when the bill came the rib charge was there with a discount. This place is obviously run by people uninterested in serving a quality product. Needless to say I would never recommend this restaurant. Try Famous Dave's next to it. read more

Went here the other day for lunch, got sat. Waited 45 minutes and not a single person came to our table the whole time. I understand short staff. But we probably had like 3 or 4 ladies walk right past us looking at us and everything. No one even took a drink order or anything. We got up and left. read more

You call that a sirloin? What a horrible cut of beef! No wonder Applebee's closed at home. Well we will not be going to one again I'm sure!! read more

My husband is a veteran and my youngest son is partially handicapped and the servers were just plain nasty to them both. All the times we have been there and have left good tips and the one time that my son was treating us to dinner by going in and getting food because I really wanted my chicken Alfredo from there. I was at home sick and that is what I was really looking forward to having. When they returned home with the food I got out my dinner and for the first time ever I couldn't even eat it. There was Hadley any Alfredo sauce it was just all noodles and chicken dry as all could be. Plus I was told by husband and son how the servers were so rude to them. How my husband has a bad reputation there for not tipping the servers, I'm sorry, but I will never come back there if that's how they are going to treat their customers. read more

Not all that great. Amazing service from Thomas tho. If I come back It's to see him for sure!!!

Horrible service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Came in to do a to go order, people in front of me sat down ordered and nearly finished their beers before they even acknowledged me. They also sat me at a covid table then another server later scolded me for sitting there. Husband got gas and cam back still hadn't even acknowledged me I left. read more

The other night myself and a group of my friends went in after I told them I had a great time, (after a few bad ones) however we sat and we ate had a great waitress (kyrsten) she was so fabulous. One of my gf's burger was a little overdone we told her and within a minute she had her manager (dusty) right at our table he had it remade and then even hooked us up with a dessert. He even checked on us again to make sure everything was great. Definitely will be back especially if the manager is there! Thank You read more

We had tried this restaurant when it was new. It seemed to have a specific crowd (regulars) that mattered, but I felt invisible. The food was blah, so I chose to go to the other Applebee's in town. After a couple of bad experiences in the other restaurant, I decided to give this one another try, since they were new when I tried them before. We just did a simple take-out meal, but it seems it was less than simple for the restaurant. When my wife went to pick up the meal, there were employees talking in the distance, and nobody came to help. After a couple employees looked her way and just continued their conversations, she finally went to the bar to ask for help. The bartender was helpful and contacted a server for her. My wife asked for some specific condiments to compliment the meal, and the server seemed put out by having to go back to get them. When the server returned, she had MOST OF the item his my wife had asked for (even acknowledging it by the her comment when she returned) then when my wife paid with cash she had the nerve to ask if she wanted her change. The ribs (which normally fall off the bone) were so tough they couldn't be eaten. The chicken Alfredo had a good dose of chicken, which seemed to be a heated version of Tyson, but was totally lacking sufficient sauce. This is probably my last effort at Applebee's in this town! read more

My Fiancé and I decided to try the Kalispell Applebee's on Valentine's Day evening for the first time and it was the worst experience ever for us at a restaurant yes they were busy but that is not an excuse for bad service by the waitress she was rude and unhelpful the food was awful and the management refused to speak with me about the situation I asked to speak with her in private so I wouldn't embarrass the waitress she refused to come and talk to me instead she hid in the kitchen with excuses another employee asked if she could help me I told her since the manager refused to come up to the front that I wasn't going to pay for my food until she spoke with me. Then the waitress that we had came up and tells me to leave very rudely. The whole time we were at the restaurant the only time the waitress came to our table was to take our order after we had been sitting there for 10 min then we sat there for about 15 min before she brought out our appetizer and drinks then we waited 20 min for our meal which was dry hard overcooked then she didn't come back until slapped our check on the table didn't even stopped to asks if we wanted dessert or anything else she didn't check on us at any other time to even see if we needed drinks or anything else I had to ask another person walking by for a refill on our drinks it's really hard to stomach the awful without anything to wash it down with I asked for a glass of water that I never received we had the mozzarella sticks appetizer which was the only edible part of our meal our full meal consisted of chicken strips& fries and the fiesta, lime chicken the chicken strips were so dry and overcooked and tough the fries were cold the fiesta, lime chicken was dry, and tasteless and the fried rice was over cooked and hard it couldn't even be ate as I said, it was an awful experience, and I will never go back. I do not recommend the Applebee's in Kalispell Montana. read more

See all

Worst and most unprofessional customer service! We were seated and ordered drinks and food. We never received our drinks(draft beer) from bar. We asked the waitress about it and she proceeded to split the checks of 6ppl sitting at a nearby table and never brought us our drinks. After almost 20min we asked to speak to a manager. The waitress Trinity was very defensive and initially refused to get the manager. Finally the manager showed up. We were trying to explain our concerns to him but Trinity kept interrupting us. The beer coincidentally FINALLY showed up around that time. When we said we wanted a different server, she became irate and began yelling at us. At that point we left. Will never be back. This person should not be interacting with the public. Applebee's used to be a decent place to grab a late dinner not no more! There are better options. Stay away!!! read more
