Was there on Mother's Day. Was seated in a section that the server quit mid shift and didn't let anyone know she left. Once it was brought to their attention that we had not been served, they jumped into service and got us our drinks and food. Thank you for turning a terrible experience into a great one. read more

Great location. Food was good. Soda was a little flat but not a big deal. Server was nice. Nothing outstanding, just a typical Applebee's. Good enough to come back tho! read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - American Near Me - Montrose, Colorado

First of all, I went to mention our outstanding server Dizzy (short for Disreal). He was very kind, attentive, and hard-working. Very knowledgeable about the menu. When we go back, we will request for him to be our waiter. They have a special going on right now where you can either get a chicken sandwich or bacon cheeseburger and fries and a soft drink for $9.99. I loved my chicken sandwich and my boyfriend enjoyed his bacon cheeseburger. It seems to be a totally different atmosphere than what it has been in the past. I recommend you try it again if you have been there in the past and been disappointed. We had a great time tonight and enjoyed our server and our food. read more

We came here while passing through town on a Sunday when a lot of restaurants are closed. We came right before lunch crowd arrived. We were seated promptly. Service was fast. We were happy with the taste and quality of our meals. I'm gluten and dairy sensitive and an adjustment for my meal was easy. The restaurant was fairly quiet. Everything was clean and pleasant. read more

Don't get me wrong, I have had some good meals here, but last night was awful. I had a 6 ounce sirloin. I know sirloin isn't filet but you can do better. I ordered it medium well, but it was shoe leather. Dry, chewy and tough. I should have sent it back. My husband and our friend had the same thing cooked differently but we all ended up with overcooked dry shoe leather. Will never order steak there again read more

Since yesterday was not only Twos-day (2.22.22) but also National Margarita Day, my friends and I decided to hit up Applebee's for some dinner and margs. Tatiana, our most excellent waitress, took care of us for the evening. Of course we got margs! For dinner we ordered a classic bacon cheese burger, a whiskey bacon burger and a quesadilla burger. All burgers were cooked to perfection and were yumminess times 3! I feel kinda bad because it's very rare that I post a review without pictures but we all devoured our food too quickly! Maybe that's a good thing! Bottom line...great service and food (as always) from our neighborhood Applebee's! Thanks Tatiana! You're the best! Cheers! read more

Typical Applebee's, until the "All You Can Eat" wing special comes around. Then they get stupid. First, they aggressively inform you that "it's not for sharing" as soon as you mention it. I get it, I've worked at and even owned restaurants. People are stupid, but don't *start* with this assumption. Second, as I said, I owned a restaurant. Boneless wings take 4 minutes to cook. You're first order you get 10, when you order more you get 5... and each refill takes 15 minutes or more. So "All you can eat" turns in to 2 dozen if you're willing to wait an hour and a half. This game is just stupid. 5 people paid you $75 for boneless wings. Feed them. Don't play stupid games. read more

My wife and I use to eat there often. However, a year or so ago, we got the worse steak from any restaurant ever. To the credit of the manager, he offered us another. It was worse than the first one. He apologized, said no charge. He simply said he could not find good help. I accepted his explanation, however It ruined our night out. Forward to Nov 29, 2023. We decided to try it again on our 48 wedding anniversary. I order the 12 oz steak and my wife the 8oz steak, two drinks, tip, $75 meal. My wife's steak was almost pure gristle and bled, ordered medium-well. Mine was ordered medium-well. It was way over cooked, with gristle and was not trimmed. It had lots of fat. Again, $75. We will NOT return: especially since our 48th wedding anniversary was ruined. read more

I went to a lunch meeting on a Thursday afternoon, we were a party of 8 and they had our table ready for us. I don't think I've ever eaten at an Applebee's and my expectations weren't high. The service was great, the menu selection had something for everyone, and I really enjoyed my meal. I was surprised to see that this place has so few stars. Don't let the lack of stars scare you...try it for yourself. Hopefully your experience will be as good as mine. read more

This is my first time in Montrose Colorado, and my first time eating out here in town. The service was horrible. We came in before a group that was seated before us. We sat at our table for 10 minutes without being approached. The servers were sitting down eating whilst we haven't even been asked what beverage we would like. which is usually step one. Overall I would not recommend this Apple bees. read more

The General manager Todd took my to go order, had zero patience an demanded i called back when i knew what i wanted to order. I placed 3 orders an was researchin an item that i forgot an had Todd tell me to just call back that he is to busy to take my order. Why answer the phone for taje out orders if youre goin to be cranky an rude then do not answer the phone. Where is the decent customer service anymore? The ladies at applebees are inceedibly nice to everyone an work so hard an do a good job. Never been spoken to like you dont matter. That was incredibly rude. Todd did attempt to apologize an i disregarded it. read more

If you can go to Chili's in town PLEASE do the favor and get the quality meal for your buck! I spent $11 on a quesadilla for slices of meat and a sprinkle of shredded cheese, and onion soup that had a large inseparable mass of cheese. only picked as a last resort cause Chili's closes at 10 . read more

the service was ok, the chicken pasta was very dry when we asked for extra sauce they wanted to charge us for it. the prime rib sandwich bun was old and hard. artichoke dip was burned. won go back read more

I would not recommend this Applebee's at all! We waited forever for our meal and we were starving when we got in there. Our waiter was very inattentive, and I don't intend to ever go back. read more

My husband and I have been here several times in years past. Always hoping it will get better, but we always leave disappointed. When you walk in, it smells like a bowling alley, the tables and chairs feel sticky or greasy, the staff is not great and the food tastes like cafeteria food. I want to like this place because they do have good drinks but it's just not worth our time or money anymore. read more

I have always loved Applebees however the time before this one was terrible lousy service and my friend ordered wine and it was brought when she was nearly finished eating so she refused it So tonight another friend took me out to eat and we both ordered Salmon It was severely overcooked and dry . I do not know if they have a new cook but if they do they need to find another one Also my plate she brought and said you have double potatoes? and I said no and on that plate was a regular sized piece of salmon so she said I will be right back with just one serving of potatoes and when she returned had a piece of salmon obviously the tail and half the thickness. At least the waitress from the first visit mentioned here has improved and she was great . We will go to Camp robber or Ted's when we want salmon.Very disappointed to pay $45 + for dinner for two and it be tasteless . I will be sue to let all my friends know the issue . Applebees has always been my go to restaurant but will have to find another read more

Best Applebees I've ever been too. Steaks were cooked quite nice and the service was on point.

Bad customer service, i had a delivery order from 11pm and didn't get it until 12:55pm I didn't even get half of the stuff I ordered, I ordered a cheeseburger, fries, and dessert with a drink and I only got the cheeseburger I payed $25 in total just to not get all the things I ordered. Never ordering here again! read more

Was looking forward to a wonderful night out for dinner with my family. However it turned into an absolute disaster because the mid-rare steak dinner my pregnant daughter order was very very undercooked (bloody red). We called our waitress and told her it issue. The waitress checked her ordered sheet and agreed that in fact my daughter ordered was mid-rare then took the steak dinner back to the cook. That was the last time we seen that waitress. When the chief re heated her dinner the manager bought my daughter plate out but the steak was still undercooked. So this time the manager took her plate back to the kitchen. We waited & waited quite awhile then finally seen the manager walking pass us to service new customers. We called out to the manager and she came back to us and she realized she forgot about my daughter's dinner. Ever thought the Manager took off the cost of my daughter's dinner , It was The worst service our we have ever experienced and will never go back to this Appleby again! read more

Our waitress got our drink order right off but acted like it was a big inconvenience we were ready to order before she brought our drinks but barely stopped to set the drinks down took her over 20 mins to come and get our order the quesda burger was a huge disappointment we had to ask for napkins when she brought she only gave us 2 there was 3 of us. The only thing our waitress was in a hurry to do was give us the check and charge my card read more

I called to ask how long the wait was, Emma answered and told me to please hold. She proceeded to transfer me back to her own phone. She answered and greeted me again, I told her it was still me. She said "Okay hold on" and hung up. Please teach staff how to use the phone read more

Loral our waitress greeted us at the door right away and sat us. She was so nice and friendly. We received our drinks right away and ordered. Both entries were made well and very flavorful. Price was good for great food. Sorry if you complain about the price of food here...get a better job! Loral our waitress made the visit all that much better, super friendly and attentive. Would give 5 stars but the seats (cloth) had old stains on them. This location could use a good cleaning. read more

I came in tonight, 12/10, after work and sat at the bar and ordered food. I work in the industry and know the food never looks like the pictures. It did come out disappointing and lacking in flavor. My server (I'm sorry I forgot your name!) was very gracious and promptly corrected the situation. I know what it's like to have guests that are genuinely just never satisfied, so I very much appreciate that she took the time to ensure everything was corrected and tried to go above and beyond. I was not upset, and realize this isn't a fine dining kind of place. People that complain need to understand that their server is not the only person responsible for their experience, and sometimes people are learning and mistakes happen. Everyone is human, and with a bit of compassion, you get compassion in return. Thank you so much for top quality service in a moment when others may have reacted instead of responded. I hope you had a great shift, and will see you again! read more

Yes, I went to a national chain. I tend to stay away, but sometimes it is unavoidable (they are not all bad, just boring.. but on the other hand can also be somewhat "safe" in an unknown area where options and information are limited) Anyhoo, server was nice, teas refilled, etc. My steak was overcooked (ordered medium rare and it was more medium well) and the baked potato undercooked. The food, as is always the case with a place catering to the most people possible, is safe and edible. The location is easy to find, just south of town across the street from Target. read more

Customer service was nice. Food was pretty good for being a chain. One entrée ordered was the 7 oz. steak. It seemed really tiny but tasted okay. Everything else was okay not Wow! but okay. We did try out the new computer on the table not to order but just to pay. I thought that part was slick. It was nice to not have to hand over your credit card to a stranger. On the flip side I thought it was sad that even going out to dinner society feels like we need to be entertained (you can buy games to play while you wait for your food). I can see how this might be helpful for kids but don't most people have a phone for that? What happened to just talking and enjoying being together? I also thought this is one more way to take out the person to person interaction with the restaurant staff and replace it with computers. Oh well, what can you do? That's the way our world is heading. Overall, I'd say it was an okay experience. Nothing exciting and memorable either negative or positive. read more

To start off, it took over an hour and a half to get our food, and our drinks would take almost 30 minutes to reach us for refills. Horrible waitress, and our food kept coming out with either the wrong sides or completely forgetting food that we did order. If I could rate this place lower than 1 star I would. Horrible place to eat! read more

Generally speaking, I'm kind of "anti-Applebee's" but this particular one is a cut above the rest... I work in another local restaurant so the 9pm-Close Happy Hour is my saving grace. The staff is welcoming no matter what time you walk in. But tonight in particular, the staff gained a whole lot of respect from me based on how they handled a rude, belligerently drunk customer. Kudos go out to the Manager on Duty this evening, as well as the bartender. Thanks for taking care me and my coworkers and the excellent service. I'll definitely be back. read more

Worst experience ever. Was left unattended waiting to ask for a box and my bill for more than 30 minutes. Our meal was good but service was horrible read more

We were seated and waited 20 minutes without being greeted by wait staff or even offered a water. We generally avoid big chains and this is exactly why. Our bad. We won't be back. read more

Service leaves something to be desired. Food is typical chain restaurant food. Don't have the steak you will be disappointed. The new remodel isn't that great. I do like the hometown high school photos though. Also the freaking place was freezing cold during the summer. Wth!!! read more

Our server, Tatiana, was very kind and welcoming. She made our expierience very eccentric. she made sure we were satisfied and had everything we needed.:) read more

We were in on 5-3-14 on bingo night. This woman was sitting in booth across from us. She ordered wings. When she got them they were swimming in sauce. Waitress took them back n was great about it. Manager brings them back out 20 minutes later and was so rude to this women. Telling her that they were fine and she should have ordered them a certain way. Also that he will never do this again for her. I was in shock that he was so rude to her. Probably will never go back due to this. read more

Yum. Tried the 2 for $20. Husband got the three cheese chicken penne and I got the tequila chicken and shrimp. Both came with huge Caesar salads. We both loved our dishes. I also got the frozen strawberry lemon said which was delicious. I would definitely recommend the dishes that we got and the service was fantastic! Jamie B. was our waitress and she was awesome. read more

I had the four cheese bacon & chicken tenders dish and it was good size portion & AWESOME!!!

Don't go there during a sports game. Last time I went there our dinner was ruined by a couple of drunk 25 year olds who kept yelling and swearing at the TV at the top of their lungs. Amazingly the manager was standing 10 feet away watching the same game and never did anything. When I approached the manager about the noise he looked annoyed at my impertinence and said "It's a Broncos game, there's nothing we can do". So just a heads up that this place is pretty much ran like a sports bar nowadays. Not a good place to take the family. read more

Love the Appetizers! Need to improve on their drinks ! The price u pay isn't worth the drink!

Food and waitress where great, Didn't feel welcoming the hostess was not polite and didn't acknowledge our arriving. Need to change the hostess in the evening. read more

Food is not good at all and overpriced. I told the waitress it was my 6 year old daughters birthday and they never cane out to sing to her, she was disappointed about that . read more

I paid $10.75 for a Perfect Patron Margarita, which seemed to have no tequila in it whatsoever. When you pay that much for a margarita, you should be able to taste and feel the tequila. I ordered the baby back ribs for $17.99, but they were gross. They were grainy, and I was told it was the rub they use. They were also very large and tough and seemed more like St. Louis style ribs from a grown pig, rather than baby back ribs. They also put excessive amounts of the wrong sauce on them. I returned them and ordered a classic hamburger with cheddar cheese, but it came with American cheese, which I really do not like, so I returned it too. The next hamburger came with approximately two tablespoons of grease on the plate. I am not exaggerating. I did not bother to return it because they were obviously not capable of preparing an acceptable meal. I will not return to this restaurant. It is simply not worth the price or frustration. read more

To me it tastes like they put about 2 cups of salt in their burgers/steaks - just cannot eat it - they get them pre-seasoned so you cannot order just a steak without all the salt on it. They had an excellent chicken sandwich but it was removed from the menu to I don't eat here anymore. read more
