    Food: 4 Customer Service: 5 Ambience: 4 Location/ Parking: 5 Cleanliness: 4 This restaurant is situated on Columbia Ave in the heart of Lexington, SC and very easy to find. We decided to go there yesterday (11/11/2022) for dinner, because one of us was a Veteran. This Applebees restaurant was honoring the Veterans, with a free entree meal from a special selection. We had no issues with parking because they have a large parking lot. Upon entering we noticed that they had "A Fallen Soldier's Table" and you could that they definitely support the military services. We was quickly greeted by a friendly staff, and if you were a Veteran with identification than you were given a special menu, $5 gift card, and raffle ticket.  Applebee's menu has many options for steaks, chicken, pasta, seafood, salads, and a wide drink selection. We decided to sit at the bar for faster seating,  and our bartender was very attentive and very friendly. We had to pay for the extra stuff we order, such as drinks, appetizer, and one entree. The drinks were very affordable and definitely top shelf and not water down. We had an issue with one of our meals, but our bartender resolved this issue and removed it from the bill. So the customer service was very professional and drama FREE. We don't usually usually review chain franchise restaurants, but because we received exceptional customer service I really wanted to share our experience. I'm positive that we will be back in near future, and I would highly recommend this Applebees restaurant location!!!

    Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp

    Haven't been here in a few years decided to check it out again. The last time I have been here it was not good at all . They have gotten better since then it wasn't very crowded at all I went here on a Saturday evening . I had the. Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp. It was on the 2 for 30 menu it also included one appetizer to share or two side salads. I had the side salad which was good. The main meal The Bourbon Street chicken was good as well just seem to be fairly small for what I was expecting for a 2 for 30 meal. They also included in on the regular menu for $14.49 just for the meal not any appetizers or side salad. They also have other specials on the menu in categories of three things which includes two for $25 or two for $27. The waitress that we had was very pleasant and attentive to the table the meal took a little bit longer than expected but it was all good. The place was clean and organized. I would go back but probably would just order off the regular menu instead of the special

    Management is everything to a place. This is no exception. I believe his name was Jim. Grey short hair and well groomed face. Super outgoing and just as nice a person/manager as you'll find. Good cold beer and the Chicken Alfredo with Broccoli is fantastic. I'm not joking. Ask for it soupy(trust me)with a complimentary breadstick. If something is wrong,don't hesitate to ask them to make it right. About the only place around to get a cocktail or a beer or 2. Not a bad place and I promise you I'm not a huge fan of Applebees,but this location does a good job!

    Rare steak

    Service was exceptional HOWEVER when my food came out I cut my steak and it was nearly rare! I don't have the time to send it back! I have a long day planned and now I'll be hungry.

    The "perfect" margarita

    My boyfriend didn't think this was the "Perfect Margarita" how they claimed. "Why get good when you could get perfect?" is their slogan but it barely had half a rim of salt and he had to pour it himself which i've never heard of before either?? (pictured) The spinach dip had chunks of artichoke in it but my salad was good, quesadilla burger was good and fries were yummy.

    Not Food

    The 3 Cheese Chicken Pasta was Pa Pa Pathetic!! Absolute rank shiat my guy. Like how da fooq u doo dat to da pasta biatch? Who put all dis watta in mi sauce!? :| AppleBeez is Boof

    Spotted this pub as we drove by, coming into town for a stop over on our way to Norfolk, Va…read more fortunately it was within walking distance from our hotel. Such a cute area with boutiques, bakery/coffee shops and restaurants. I was excited for, craving and hoping for fish and chips and they did not disappoint! Very friendly and welcoming staff. Beautiful pictures of Ireland's landscape in the dinning area adjacent to the bar room. Great cocktail, wine and beer menu. We had EXCELLENT meals...pot roast and fish and chips! I enjoyed ( never had one before ) an Irish martini.

    Wish I could leave zero stars, but our waitress ended up being extremely nice…read more Walked in looking for a table of 4. They told us 20-30 minutes which wasn't a problem. Now mind you there were a lot of empty tables with "reserved" on them at that point. Fast forward an hour later, because we didn't get a txt from them, we went in to see what the story was. They proceeded to tell us it would be another 30 minutes. Also the seats that had "reserved" on them were still empty! They said they would take care of us, and walked us over to the bar side, and told us we would have to stand at the counter to eat! I was fuming. The other three from my party walked out, while i proceeded to tell the manager this was extremely poor service! All he could say was they were busy. I pointed out the empty tables that were empty when we first walked in an hour ago and are still empty! They finally gave us one of those tables. We were out in an hour and guess what ...... there were still empty tables with "reserved" on them! Would NOT recommend this place to anyone! My suggestion is to go someplace else!! Like I said, our waitress was extremely nice and couldn't apologize enough.

    We've been to Cork and Cleaver a handful of times now, and while the food is good, the real reason…read morewe keep coming back is the bar experience. The cocktails are AMAZING -- seriously some of the most unique and delicious drinks in the area. They're creative, flavorful, and beautifully made. Nikki, the bartender, is an absolute gem. She is so kind, welcoming, and incredibly helpful when I'm feeling indecisive. I can tell her what flavors I'm in the mood for, and she'll make something off-menu that ends up being perfect every time. The fact that she remembers me and my boyfriend even though we've only been 3 or 4 times says so much about the level of care and attention she gives her guests. The food is pretty good overall, but for us it doesn't quite match the price point. That said, we happily sit at the bar because the drinks and service make it completely worth it. If you're going, grab a seat at the bar and let Nikki take care of you -- you won't regret it!

    Everything was exceptional but the steak. The service, atmosphere, ambience, presentation,…read moreappetizers and drinks, all 10's, but the actual steak was flavorless. Not even the taste of salt to it. It was cooked perfectly and had a great grill/ sear to it though. I had the 12oz dry aged ribeye. I was so excited to try it but it was so disappointing. I had to ask for steak sauce. A steak house should master the steak in my opinion. I don't go to a steakhouse to try other proteins. I want steak. If they improve this they will be excelling in fine dining steakhouse for sure!
