My and I have always like Applebee's. Food is usually good and price is reasonable. We order from th 2 for menu. Today my wife ordered the Fiesta Lime chicken and I ordered the Bourbon Street Chicken. My wife was happy with her meal. Mine was tasty but lots if oil. Disappointed there but the chicken breast was nice and tender. Our waiter was nice and friendly. read more

The food was delicious. It came with all the fixings warm and fresh. Enjoyable meal. Just what I needed Ambience is relaxing and music or watch TV. The service was excellent. read more

I did like the services but their food made me incredibly uncomfortable and sick I threw up for day and I'm glad to say I'm not going back there ever again read more

Food was good and service was okay. Our server was also bartending so she was being stretched all over the restaurant. She was super nice but forgot to bring our water and but tried her best to check in on us every so often. I feel for her especially when it gets busy. read more

The food came out cold (fish). Then, they "refixed" it and it came out salty. By this point, my wife, who's food was not delicious either, had finished her meal. I would have been better going to the supermarket to get frozen fish sticks. You either need a chef with more experience, or a better product shopper for better quality. The server was ok, but also working the bar at the same time, so she was as attentive as she could be. read more

I haven't been this restaurant almost 15 years BCS I moved : but still kicking ass short staff and STILL kicking ass great people great food and damm great place . I know is franchise but looks like local great job guys have a wonderful year read more

I stopped using this location, but was in the area. So I gave them a second change. Ordered two entries that come with fries and coleslaw. That only one order of fries, and no coleslaw at all. Took the twenty minutes to bring out my curbside pickup, after I responded to text I was there. I did receive text they could not find my order. read more

I came to this Applebee's because I was accompanying my mother on a house-hunting mission and we needed to stop somewhere with our realtor to grab a bite to eat. Typically I don't dig on chain restaurants like this unless I'm supremely drunk and just trying to eat more appetizers than I can stand, but I have gotta say, my lunch here was pretty great. I got the chicken fajita wrap and it was so damn good! Normally I'm not a fan of wraps, but this one had a great balance of chicken and vegetables and was served with a spicy aioli that I smeared on every bite. It was seriously very good and I was extremely surprised. The waitstaff was friendly, there was plenty of parking, decent bathrooms, etc. Ain't nothin' wrong with this joint! read more

First I ordered to go parking. I waiting 45 minutes in the parking lot before walking in. Prior to that I hit the arrival button on there website when parked. When I walked in my order was ready but the food was cold and sides were missing. I will never recommend this lazy restaurant. Such simple things were neglected and will never order here again. I will try the Applebees near the Christiana mall and see if there any better or worse. read more

Ordered to go food. The burger was under cooked and missing ingredients. Called the restaurant was told by Manger Mich Adams that its not his problem that the food was made wrong. I went to the restaurant. And once agonizing was told its not his problem and was told to exit the restaurant or police would be called. I guess being a hispanic customer my money was not worth the same to him. Very disgusting food and very disrespectful service from the manager. He should be fired. If my pregnant wife gets food poisoning i will sue that restaurant. read more

I can't tell you how many times I've had terrible service here. I don't mind the food and my boyfriend and I frequent this location because of its convenient location. But we decided to no longer come here. The last couple times it's taken our server over 10 mins to even greet us. We put out entire order in once she finally decided to come to the table. Waited another 15 for our drinks. The drink came out with the appetizer. I ordered a frozen margarita and it was completely melted . The server was this younger blonde girl and I'm sorry but she is terrible . Another time our server never even put our appetizer in so we never even got it. Don't waste your time coming here . read more

Tonight I ordered a classic appetizer combo for car side pickup. I arrived at the specified time, and I indicated the make and model of my car. Finally, two giggling, immature staff members brought out the food. When I got home, I saw that a major element for the combo was missing. I would not be posting this review if this was a one-time experience. I regret that I already paid an undeserved gratuity for poor service and packaging. There are many options in our area. This particular Applebee's should be avoided. It would have been zero stars if I could do it. read more

This is the second (and last) time I've used curbside pick up here. Both times it took the waitress several trips to figure out what she was doing. Tonight she came to my car four times before I could finally leave. She kept forgetting things. I didn't have time to wait, which is why I used curbside pick up. I get home to discover that my chicken salad is only a salad. No chicken. I'm not driving back to have it fixed. I said I wouldn't be back after the last time. This time I mean it. Don't waste your time. Unless you have plenty of it to spare. You'll be sending your order back plenty of times. I didn't plan to give any stars on this review. Apparently you can't submit your review without a star. read more

The food was about average for an Applebee's. Despite not a lot of clients, the service was so-so. But it wasn't a bad experience overall.

Went here on Veterans Day and ordered one of the meals offered to honor Vets. The meat was inedible: tough, dry, and hard. I ate the potatoes which were not very good but at least edible. When the waiter, then the manager came over to check on it, I told them that the quality was terrible. They both said essentially the same thing; the meals are cooked in advance then reheated to fulfill the demand. So, my food was reheated -- microwaved after previously being cooked. Yuck. No wonder it tasted like an over nuked lean cuisine. They were very nice about all of this, but it is kind of insulting to Veterans quite honestly. The beverages were fine. I don't know though if I'll go back because of problems with quality I've experienced at Applebees generally. read more

After two dried out entrees and the extra I had ordered to take home I can say for sure the cook needs to go or their cutting cost on quality of food . Our family won't be back even with the managers credit on one of those items . read more

The food was horrible. I used delivery services. The cheeseburger was over cooked and the bun was old, it was crumbly falling apart. And the fries were cold and tasted like they had been sitting out for a while. I will never order entrees from them again. Just need to stick to the appetizers only. read more

The food was not very good, and I am unsure about how I feel about the atmosphere as well. My girlfriend felt extremely disrespected, and I uncomfortable, our waitress Amber, flirted with me the entire time while throwing weird glances at my girlfriend. Not only did she and I notice but our friends that were with us tonight, noticed as well. our waitress continuously forgot dips, drinks, She was very attentive, but when she checked on us.. She had forgotten what we had asked her for the time before. (Multiple occasions) and brought us a dirty side plate (EWWWW) Probably won't be back anytime soon. Hopefully she learns some manners or is looking for a new job. read more

Thank you Cindy for being so great with my grandkids. Perfect Margarita and great service

Would be 1 star (food was colder than the beer if that makes sense) if not for the gloryhole in men's bathroom. Whoever was behind there personally made my trip much more gratifying. 8 roper *Edited: Had originally provided 4 stars for gloryhole blowjob. Went back for more gloryhole. Turns out they patched hole. Fuck you Applebees read more

The smothered chicken was very good. My Fiancé said her fries were cold. Other than that I had to pass on their grilled shrimp since they didn't have a suitable dipping sauce. Garlic or a Mustard sauce would have been good! read more

Came in for a mango tea to-go. I don't see why that took 20 minutes. Had to send it back because they forgot to put in the mango syrup...

Can't recommend this location with a clear conscious. Wasn't a busy night but service was extremely slow.we had a sime order soup..no cheese & chicken quesadilla appetizer: took more than 40 mins and the cook failed to include the pico and had to send the soup back twice. Waiter was lackluster. Id blame the cook and the manager who let it leave the kitchen that way. One good thing is they gave a meaningful apology but my time is valuable. read more

We had a nice lunch. Everyone was friendly. Service was prompt. Food was good with a nice presentation. The Pick 2 lunch specials are a good buy with plenty of choices. Soup was hot, salads were fresh, but on the small side. Shrimp were nicely done, tasty. Garlic roll was ok. We would stop here again. read more

This is the second time within 3 months I have gone to this location and I can say it will be the last. Server was super friendly BUT everything was slow - I mean really slow. Now we don't like rushing through our apps and the meal should flow but we got apps and salad together and my husband said please don't being out the main entree so the sever was very conscious NOT but the kitchen left it under the heat lamp. Needless to say my burger sat in a pool of grease and my husbands chicken was dried out. I did say something to the server, "this was under the heat lamp right?" and he did take $3 off but that just wasn't enough - sad part is I don't think the server got it that it wasn't a good experience..... read more

Horrible food- steak was cold and undercooked-service was slow-we had to repeat our order 3 times to our server- judging by the lack of a crowd I would say this place is poorly managed- I'll go next door to Red Robbin next time- read more

Sat down quickly. However I sat for 20 minutes without anyone coming my way to take a drink order. I even attempted to use the automated waiter they have at each table...with no luck. Won't be going to this specific location again. read more

normally the staff is excellent and the food is great! but the last few times we've been there it has been an decline in service,food quality, and overall employee knowledge/sincerity. We stopped going for a while, because every time we went, one of our brood has gotten sick afterwards ( sick for 2+days) so after a few months of not going, we chalked it up to coincidence, and went on 10/20/13. First problem was when we came in the host greeted us (celine) and then tried to seat us (three kids one of them being a baby) right at the table in front of the door, as calmly and nicely as we could we asked to be moved,since there was a draft, she aptly refused with an attitude and said that wasn't possible, i asked to speak to her manager and she quickly changed her tune, yet had a horrible attitude about it, we we're moved away from the door and placed at an table on the far right side. Our waiter (who looked like a model, with tattoo's) greeted us and took our drink order which came out quick and fast (although we had 2 extra juices when we ordered one and no straws). We're regulars so we quickly knew what we wanted to order, yet the waiter disappeared and didn't pop up for about ten minutes (we couldn't even drink our drinks during this time), as handsome as he was, he was very monotone,and seemed to not wanna be there (slightly but not Overly busy) we ordered an appetizer sampler, two orders of the Trio, kids chicken fingers and fries, with a kids hamburger and fries. and then the wait began, we literally came there at 6:30Pm we didn't get our food untill 7:30pm, a waitress (not ours) stopped and told us there was some confusion in the kitchen, and it's a longer wait then normal (a blonde i forget her name) and asked us if we needed anything (we didn't) our WAITER NEVER APPEARED during this time AT ALL. We started to get restless, as we saw multiple parties seated Way after us come and go, when finally he appeared and said it'll be only a few minutes, WE didn't even get our appetizer after waiting for almost and hour! the food finally came out (all together, appetizer plus dinner) and we ate greedily, the food was warm like it's been sitting there a while and very overly salty, it was wrong (once again and extra burger) but after the long wait and hungry,restless kids we sucked it up and ate it anyway. after finishing we sat there for another half and hour while we waited for our waiter to appear (he checked up on us a few minutes right after we got it and then disappeared again) he appeared and we ordered the Apple Chimi cheesecake which was the BEST part of the whole dinner. after we paid i wanted to speak with a manager, yet he disappeared ONCE again and it wasn't worth the wait. it was way past 8pm and we had to get home!.. i am furious about this experience and this restaurant, it has declined in every way, and we aren't gonna come back. its a shame because it's hard to find a family oriented restaurant that has an vast menu and adult drinks... but im willing to shell out more money for a better overall experience.. read more

The food was good I got a nice burger, however the fries where at times over cooked and cold. The waitress was very unpleasant, rushed, and impatient. I would not recommend read more

I've eaten here before and never had an issue. Tonight, we wanted something quick and easy, so we used their ToGo menu on the website. It said it would be ready at 7:39 pm. We arrived at 7:50 and were told that the food was not ready yet. The waitress came back out 5 minutes later and said it would be 10-15 at most, proceed to almost 45 minutes later they finally bring our food (the restaurant was not very busy at the time as the parking lot was only half full). We got home and were very disappointed as the Brew pub pretzels we ordered we're hard and barly any cheese sauce was given. I ordered the breakfast burger with bacon, the bacon was hard as a rock, the egg was over cooked and had a matalic taste, and the hamburger was burnt (asked for it to be cooked with pink), and could not eat ether bun as they were as hard as a rock. My wife's pasta was cold, like it had been sitting out for a long period of time, and some of her noodles weren't fully cooked. The only thing they got right were the French fries. Will not be going back at this time. read more

Went with my family for dinner last week. Everyone's food was great except for my husband's. He got the all you can eat riblets, however even though they tasted good, too many small platelet bones were throughout the meat. We also feel that the lighting is inadequate for evening meals (very dim lighting). Other than that the service was excellent and pricing was appropriate. Would go back but not at the top of our list. read more

Look...I'd be lying if I said the food wasn't good...I almost feel guilty for liking a chains food...but the quesadeia burger is excellent...the totellia soup is tasty...service is good...prices right...will be back... read more

I ordered a half rack of ribs which should be 7 ribs and there was only 5 ribs on my plate. I mentioned it to the waitress and the manager agreed there should be more ribs. He gave me a credit for 4.00 and that's okay but I think the short every customer and I'm guessing they use the the other 4 ribs they take em from every rack and sell them as riblets. That's just wrong read more
