We stopped here after power shopping because I got a coupon in the Swag Bag from the mall. But I didn't need it, because you can check in on Yelp and get a free appetizer. I got the steak quesadilla and my sister got the Thai shrimp salad. We both got drinks and cheered making it thru Thanksgiving weekend, with a Friendsgiving thrown in! We had been rocking and rolling all weekend and were powering down. Our server was great-he was a pro and kept things moving. We played the tableside game and had a great time. Sorry there are no pics, we ate too fast! read more

This use to be 5 star a few years ago. Deducting stars because portion sizes have shrank, prices gone up, and the quality of the steaks have dropped. They do a decent job preparing the steaks, but there's too much grissle too often. read more

Ridiculous. They tricked me. Ordered on app and when I got here they said I have to wait an hour. They said unfortunately they have no way of letting us know that they are backed up even though they could of texted me. I would not of even ordered if I knew I had to wait 2 hours on my food. read more

Always love what I get here! The service never disappoints. And also had a great waitress; Barbie!

Good food. Portions have become smaller and hit and miss on service. Use to love going here but to many better places with better portions, prices and service. read more

Food was good. Service was ok. Bathroom needs repair. Ladies room needs lock on doors.

What a bad experience here. No cheese for first entree, so second entree was artichoke spinach chicken cavatappi, No artichoke! Small or half of a chicken breast on top of dry pasta. I was so disappointed! read more

Just spent 20 mins waiting for a table then told another 20 plus at least an hour wait for food. Short on waitstaff and short on kitchen staff. Haven't been there in ages, but granddaughters wanted to go. Left and won't be back. read more

Nope, Nope and Nope, Why do I always do this to myself? Lol always left unhappy when dining here, but seem it's a last min go to in Monroe lol, going to leave this off my list, Food and Service both are always lacking... sad because it use to be a good chain read more

Annoyingly loud music, ever-increasing prices, ever shrinking portions, and mediocre food. Applebee's used to be the place to go but now it's just an overpriced headache. read more

Every time I go here I regret it. I keep going back hoping it will be better than the last time..it's a bad romance. Everything sucks here...from steaks to burgers to dried out pastas and completely imperfect margaritas. Warm beer. Crappy service. Broken electronic tabletop menus. Half off apps after 9pm is the only reason anyone eats here. And all of the appetizers suck too. SUCK SUCK THIS PLACE SUCKSSSSSSSS read more

If y'all enjoy salads and a good family restaurant go to Applebee's service was good. It is $$ for two can run with out drinks $35 to 40 with the tip. read more

It took forever to get our food. 400 teenagers sat right next to us and were talking as if they were front row at a Jonas brothers concert.

Always good food and good service. Moderate wait times even when they are busy. I enjoy all the sports games and news on the TVs all the time. Table games are fun and a good time passer read more

This is the best Applebees in Southeast Michigan! The servers are always smiling. The manager comes around to check on your meal and best of all, the food is delicious! The location makes is very convenient when shopping because it's near Kohls, the Mall, Hobby Lobby, and other stores. We had Jacqueline as a server. Ask for her, she's great! read more

Delicious! Great dinner night out with the family. Or server was pleasant. Food was good. Kitchen was a bit slow tonight, but that's OK. Loved the free offer for checking in. Got the new smore churros. Holy cow delicious!! read more

Sat at the bar. Mindy is awesome. Some of the best customer service I've had. Food was quick and correct. And the beer was cold and refreshing. read more

The tables are sticky as well as the menus. Flatware was so so and the appetizer plates were dirty. This place needs a good cleaning.

Typically, I only pick from a couple of different entrees at Applebee's. Not my fav food/place but we go occasionally because it's in a convenient location. Went there after Church last Sunday and tried something new, Honey Pepper Mac N' Cheese. Not a fan. I like my bacon crispy and this dish came loaded with tiny pieces of chewy bacon thoughout the cheese sauce. Not to mention, please refrain from chopping the parsley - makes it extremely hard to pick off. The only reason I'm giving 3 stars is for our waitor, TJ. He was very friendly, attentive and helpful. The food gets 1 star. read more

Yea not sure what the deal is there. So we pass on going after several times of going. Food meh. Price meh. Service meh. Glad this small town has other options to dine in at read more

I come here weekly we jus love it always get the same thing today I asked my server for a second order of fries with my burger and she said since u wanted it plain id have to get a basket appetizer so we had to skip out on dessert maybe next time I guess read more

I had the American Standard Hamburger. The idea of having all your toppings inside the burger sounds good at first....but it really isn't. Couldn't taste any of them. I had to request pickles, onion, tomato to put on it, after eating about a third of it. The burger was a lot smaller then I thought it would be for $9.99 and I had minimal fries with the order. My wife had the Napa Chicken and Portobello. I was very envious as I could smell and see the food. Had a taste of it and it was VERY good. Service was ok, but not great, as I had to almost get refills on pop myself after the initial one. read more

This is my first review and I was not pleased with the service and management. Not to mention the restaurant was invested with ants. At first we did not realize it until it was time to leave, but the ants were inside the crevices of the seat cushions. I mean hundreds. Had to ask the server for everything. Refills, straws, correct check, etc. We told the manager about the ants and we were given 2 free appetizers for future use. Glad we don't live near there, because we will never go back. read more

i am unsatisfied with the service. the waiters and waitresses were mixing up orders. after we ordered we all got our food except for one of us. we asked the waitress about it and it took another 4-5 minutes until we got his food. after we finished, we were unsatisfied with the taste of the chicken in the triple cheese chicken penne. the chicken tasted rubbery and was just off tasting. it was also one of the members in the groups birthday. we asked for a birthday brownie, and it was told to be given to us. we never got the brownie. when we went to pay the lady asked if we wanted change back and as one of our members were finishing up a conversation she assumed we didn't want our change back. i am very disappointed in food and service, do not recommend. read more

Curbside to go at the Monroe Applebees has become a joke. Do not ever order a burger and expect anything but the patty some cheese and a bun!! Three times this has happened when we ordered burgers for curbside pick up. And three times we got home to open the burger box to find a sad excuse for a patty with cheese and a bun. Not a stitch of what was suppose to be on these specialty burgers! First time it happened we thought oh well someone made a mistake, we just excepted it, 2nd time my husband called to complain, they did send us via email a gift card for the price of the burger, and today I ordered my son the American Standard Burger, and he got a hockey puck, with some cheese on a bun, literally that was exactly the burger he got . If he wanted a plain burger I would of went to McDonald's and spent a buck .. $10 bucks for a burger that btw I just feed to my DOG, is crap when you don't ever get the right burger. Once again had to make a call to the manager and once again they will send an email gift card for the price of the burger..and of coarse "they don't want to lose our business" well you lost it, how about replacing my time? And the fact I had to go back out and get my son another burger?! And oh how about my meal was ruined bc I had to go back out for my son ! Went to Ruby's for their car side to get a burger..guess what, they were fast, the burger was hot and it was exactly what I ordered. So thank you Ruby Tuesdays, you just earned yourself a twice a week car side customer ! read more

Ordered a Bourbon Street Steak and it came out with 1 mushroom on it... I asked the waitress where the mushrooms and onions were and she actually asked me to lift up the steak as if they were hiding under it... I did it just to prove there was nothing there but I WILL NEVER RETURN TO THIS PLACE... Food and service was awful! read more

A truly terrible experience. After stopping at this particular location more then once my wife and I have made the observation that this restaurant (if you want to call it that) has possibly the worst wait staff in the monroe area. My wife and I had walked in to a mostly empty restaurant and after ordering our drinks, which took about ten min. alone we waited possibly another 15 min. to have a chance to order our food. During the wait for our food I had finished my beverage and had the empty glass on the edge of the table representing that i had finished and would like another. Our food was dropped off by another waitress who had not taken any time to ask us how our meals looked or asked us if we might need anything else. (my empty glass still on the edge of the table). After about a half hour our original waiter came back with the check and just set it down also not acknowledging the empty glass. Needless so say i had nothing to drink the entire meal. My wife and i left extremely disappointed and vowed that we wont ever be visiting that location ever again. read more

Came here not too enthused since I never particularly liked this restaurant, but a friend wanted to go here and nothing else was open at the time of night we were dining. The first thing we noticed was our mozzarella sticks came out practically frozen, and had to send them back. Thankfully they had no issue getting us new ones, but every time I've been dragged here with a friend or group, this has happened to someone every time. I Ordered pasta and asked for parmesan on the side. Of course I assumed this would not cost extra, for one, the waitress didn't mention it'd be an extra charge, and two, parmesan should never cost extra to go on pasta! So i was a little surprised when I seen I was up charged for the cheese on my bill. I really thought spending nearly 15 dollars on a plate of bland, mediocre pasta was bad enough. All in all, I would suggest buying your own frozen food and heat it up yourself at home rather than going to Applebee's and spend a fortune for them to do it for you. read more
