The entrance was dirty I almost turned around and walked away, should have. I'm not a fan of Applebees this cemented that. I was greeted okay and seated promptly. The waitress took my order, then was apparently call in to a meeting. Another waitress pick my order, but by the time I got my order it was cold. My order of fried pickles was not only cold but a greasy mess, anything but crispy, and mostly not eatable. There were bits of other fried stuff mixed in. My meal was a 6oz sirloin medium rare. It was cooked properly, had decent flavor. Problem was it was very chewy, a task to chew it enough to get it down without choking. The waitress was good. But the meeting could have waited until her customers were cared for. To top all off, The air conditioning was minimal to nonexistent. It very warm. There is no second chance in my future for this Applebees, I will think hard before I enter any other. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Manager should be fired asap - American Near Me - Olive Branch, Mississippi

This is the WORST. I wish I could give zero stars. I ordered a 6 oz. steak at Applebee's, and what I received was an absolute disgrace. The steak was completely undercooked--basically raw--and clearly not safe to eat. It was so underdone I could practically hear it mooing on my plate. Despite mentioning this to the staff, nothing was done to fix it. This was not just disappointing but outright unsafe. At a bare minimum, a restaurant should ensure their food is properly cooked. Applebee's failed spectacularly here, and the fact that they sent this out of the kitchen is beyond unacceptable. I will never return, and I'd strongly advise others to avoid this place unless they enjoy being served raw meat and fries that barely pass as edible. Absolutely terrible! ALSO, IT TOOK 3 HOURS TO GET MY FOOD read more

Yuk. I remember when Applebee's was good. Decided to eat here knowing that the service and overall food has went downhill bc everyone I know talks about it if Applebee's is mentioned. To begin with the HVAC was not working well and if feel humid and sticky throughout the place. The service we received was more than lackluster. I had to go get our clueless waitress from the booth she and the other servers were at the three times I needed anything-no apology. The high chair was so FILTHY! The food was okay and I'm just sad this place is terrible now because I'd truly like to go more than once every 5 years. Need to invest more in training and employee morale. read more

Had the fiesta lime chicken with Spanish rice Wasn't going to review this place because I was out with my GF who has a million instagram followers. There was no flavor to the chicken just a chicken breast with Mexican cheese on top of it The Spanish Rice looked like it was made earlier in in the day You could see the shape of the spoon they used to scoop it out with The good points are the wonton chicken appetizers were awesome and the 1.00 margaritas were amazing Our server Gabby did excellent job taking care of us Overall this place is in bad need for a renovation We sat at a table in the bar area and you can literally smell the mol read more

Yea omg highly recommend order the chicken pasta really good for the was hot came out in 2 months so yeah

After being picked up from the airport, my brother took me to this Applebees and I had a wonderful experience. Contrail was our waitress and she was amazing. Very attentive and respectful. I loved her. The food came out quick and hot. I almost burned my mouth on the salmon what she didn't know is that I had a very rough/stressful day flying with my wallet/ID being left at the airport in CA. She doesn't realize how her kindness really helped me shit day get better. read more

The steak was overcooked, the service was nonexistent, never offered refills and was nowhere to be found until it was time to pay

The food is good, but twice we have been in and the first time no one came to seat us after standing there for 15min. The second time, we were seated and walked out having waited 20min for even a drink. Both times no one stopped at our table or said anything. Only looks like two people working too.. read more

If I could give a 0 star, I would. I ordered food online Tuesday January 8, 2025 @ 6:50. Food was listed as "Ready for pickup" at 7:23. I arrived at 7:30 and the food wasn't ready. (The restaurant was completely empty, by the way). I waited for another 40 minutes before I was finally served. When I checked the food NONE of it was fresh, so why did it take an hour and 20 minutes to prepare the food? I haven't been to Applebees in about 3 years, and now I remember why. read more

I placed a order on Ubereats for this location. I ordered the 2 for 28 and they forgot to give the delivery person my entire order. I reached out to ubereats and they could not refund me for the missing item. So then I called the store directly and spoke with Freddy. He was very nice and even offered to deliver my meal himself but I was to far. He then goes to say that he will comp me for the inconvenience by sending me a $45 gift card to my email and I should receive within an hour. Well its been 48 hours and still no gift card. This experience put a bad taste in my mouth because he did not have to lie about sending it. I will not visit or order from this location again because of the situation read more

A friend and I had a wonderful dinner. We got the 2/$25 incl. salad or app. The salads were huge. Almost full then. The food was seasoned well. Steak was cooked exact MW. My server was on point. I think her name was close to a Treshida? Plz excuse me if I'm incorrect. Charge it to my head not my heart. Nice atmosphere for a Saturday night. Kudos. read more

Food was fine but missing 2 items from order that was delivered. Tried contacting grub hub but was left on hold twice.

Walked into the restaurant around 1700hrs. Saw a few tables filled with people and only one employee, the bartender. Waited for around 10 minutes maybe more, no employee greeted us, said anything to us, or made any attempt to welcome us, while we were waiting for a host to seat us some more people came in. Still no employee said anything even though the bartender looked our way and made eye contact. The bartender never went to get someone to welcome us. We finally left. This restaurant is a joke and the manger should be fired. The employees need re-training on customer service, and how to treat quest so they feel welcome. BTW, the people who were already seated were receiving no service that I could see. They were waiting for the wait staff whom never showed. Shame on you Applebees, you sure made an impression on me. I will never ever patronize your facilities ever again. I will be contact the corporate office and let them know how this restaurant treats quests. read more

The hamburger had wilted lettuce way to much butter I'm the bun. The burger was like a McDonalds burger in size. The Mac on cheese was over cooked and cold. The cheddar cheese on the top wouldn't melt even when mixed in. Waitress was great. No drink happy hour. Avoid this pulse at all cost you would regret it.. read more

Terrible, don't eat at this place, food isn't fresh, also have a beer with a used and old lemon .

Restaurant has an odor. Staff was immature and playing around. Booths were torn up. Not a location I would recommend or return to.

We had to seat ourselves because every was talking. We then waited a while to be served then waited a long time for a menus (we were sitting by the menus) she then finally took our drink order and never showed up with it. We finally got up angry and frustrated and went to Colton's where in 30 min time we were seated served and had food. read more

Understaffed. Long waits, awful food/most of it cold and chewy. Watered down 10 dollar Margherita and never got my normal beverage. Never coming back to another Applebee's again. read more

This was my first time sitting down too eat at this Applebee's. My 17 year old son wanted to come here for his birthday so here we are. We sat at the door for 10 mins before anyone seated us and they was not a crowd. After finally getting seated with sat at the table for another 30 mins before the waitress took our orders. We ordered two appetizers with our meals and only one came out. They brought the other one out 20 mins later with my meal at this point I didnt want it because I had my food. The whole point of and appetizers is to hold you over before your meal comes not to come out with the smh. So I finally cut into my steak which I asked for medium well the thing came out well done and ready to ruff me up smh lol. Yall this restaurant has the worst customer service and and food. Save your time choose another restaurant. read more

Very poor management. Place was not busy and had to wait for someone to show up to seat us. Took a long time to get waited on. Ordered an appetizer and meal. Got our meal without getting our appetizer. Asked to speak to manager and she was just full of excuses. Told us we could leave if we wanted to. I got up to leave and she told me I would have to pay for my food. Never offered us anything for the poor service. Ate and left and will never go back. read more

We went here for lunch this past weekend and they were not buy at all. Only 5-8 cars in the parking lot and maybe 15 people in the place, most at the bar. So we thought it would be a quick delicious lunch... wrong We waited 20 mins for our drinks... We waited 1 hour 8 mins for our food... By the time the food got there our drinks were empty and we asked for waters, sat there for another 15 mins waiting for waters and finally just said nevermind just bring the damn check. Horrible service!! read more

I am really pissed. Gave this place a second try well that was my bad. See about a year ago, my daughter found a spider on her food. Order the 2 for 20.00, this was a live bug in my food. Caught my attention because the legs were still moving. The rest of my order was also jacked up, they lefty out all my sides. Hubby took it back only to be told the manager wasn't there. Wanted all of my money back so i could go somewhere else that take more pride in the food they serve. Took so long now all the rest of the food is cold. I didn't want any of the food but with my money spent here, couldnt go anywhere else. Now it's 900pm and I ordered at 722pm, cold food and hungry grandchildren. read more

I wanted to give this Applebee's a try. Even if not many patrons were inside. My wife and I arrived around 8:45PM. We were greeted and seated far on a back wall booth. What I first noticed was the language the wait staff was using(including the bar tender). Mind you, even at this hour there are children here. I could not believe my ears what was spewing out of their mouths! Too much profanity is an understatement. Now for the food. We placed our order. My wife order salmon, but when it arrived it looked like it had been in water thawing out! The spinach was limp and dried up. She tasted it and could not take another bite. Maybe since this was a late night chef perhaps they were just ready to go home. I cannot recommend this location. Thus far, the rudeness of the staff and the meals we received were unsatisfactory for Applebee's. read more

The reviews led me to believe I would be underwhelmed due to poor service, and dirty restaurant. WRONG! Our server Melanie was friendly, attentive, and simply good at her job. The host even recovered my Sunglasses for me after I accidentally left them behind. The restaurant was clean, and I question some of the integrity of prior reviews. The food today was as good as it gets for a chain restaurant, and rarely does one rank anything over a 3, but this one deserved the extra star. The all day brunch burger is sensational, and a definite recommend to any burger lover. Buttery bun, tender juicy flavorful Patty, smothered in cheese, bacon, hashbrowns and then carefully topped with a perfectly cooked egg,and ketchup. This all came together so well I forgot this was Applebees. The shrimp on my spinach salad; delicate, and properly seasoned, and when you add the delicious hot bacon vinegarette on top you have a tasty win. The French onion soup was balanced, and fresh. The only down side was the weak sweet tea. Maybe they take their reviews to heart or maybe some reviews were false, but I will definitely return to this restaurant again. read more

If I could give it a zero I would but since I can't, I give it a one. It was 6:30 on a Friday night and the place was dead inside. So I figured the service would be pretty quick. however, I was immediately seated and 15 minutes goes by before I can even order a drink then 20 minutes goes by before i can get my drink. The waitress walks away and doesn't take my order. I waited 10 minutes for her to come back and when she didn't return I got up and left. read more

Never got waited on! The first table the waiter said he'd be right with us. After 25 mins he still hadn't stopped but kept walking by. Got up and sat at a table in the bar area after asking that waitress if she could serve us. She took our drink orders and never saw her again. Another 20 mins we got up and left. Restaurant was filthy! Will never go back. I'd rather eat at a gas station. read more

If it was a way to leave 5 negative stars I would!!! On last night I stopped in at this restaurant and walking in I noticed the restaurant looked like a windstorm had come through on the inside. We were seated at a table were all around us was paper, dirty dishes left over food etc., We thought that maybe they had a large party and it just hadn't been cleaned yet. We decided to move to the bar area. After about 30 minutes I notice no one trying to clean up all the mess that was everywhere! People were coming in waiting on their call in orders and staff would just walk all around them not even asking if they could help them. Look like everyone was trying to avoid working!!! I just started observing and what I saw was ridiculous!!! It would take all day to express what all I observed. Brenda the bartender was trying her best to handle things and it seem like she was in it by herself!!!!! She was very apologetic and still maintaining her cool in this train wreck!! Be careful eating at this place....food poisoning is real!!!! This location need to be closed, remodeled and start over or move all together!!! read more

It's just another Applebee's. On this visit we were greeted promptly by a very friendly hostess, who offered to seat us in the coolest section of the restaurant because of the heat today. Much appreciated! Our server was efficient in taking our orders, but not overly friendly. Not unfriendly... just... eh. The food came quickly and was okay. I ordered from the Choose Any Two menu. The 4 oz sirloin was supposed to be medium-rare, but was medium-well... bordering on well done. That's almost forgivable because it has to be hard to grill a 4 oz steak! The other part of my combo was the Garlic Rosemary Chicken Pasta. Again, a small portion. Bland. Chicken was dry. Not a bit of rosemary flavor. I wouldn't order it again. Another member of our party ordered the Green Goddess Wedge Salad and is still raving about how good it was. No real raves. Food was pretty standard Applebee's fare. I'm sure we'll be back, but it's not the best food in town. read more

Wow, simply awful you should be ashamed. Arrived at 430pm on Sat 3-13-21. No hostess, manager or anyone seating. 2 parties were ahead of us waiting, 10 minutes elapsed. Finally a tall, skinny, young white waitress approached and said she was already overwhelmed and overbooked, but she seated the 2 parties ahead of us. There was probably 8 unbussed and finished tables uncleared. She made the party wait while she cleaned one. Right there at the table, quite amusing. Then seated us in the other waitress's area. From what I gather their were only 2 waitress's for the whole place. That waitress, saw us, walked past us 10 times, and never greeted, took our drink order or anything. 10 more minutes. NOTHING She then (the 2nd waitress) seated 2 other black parties and waited on them. She is Black, they were black. We are white. So is she a blatant racist, or confused about what section is her's? And we never got served by her. We finally got up and went to the bar, the bartender takes care of those people sitting at the bar. We voiced our concerns and he said, that is probably wasn't what we thought. His service was adequate. Our burgers were decent, but the accompanying wings weren't hot. Overall, very disappointed. Every time we give them a chance, this is what happens. Not sure why we keep giving them a chance. Their performance level doesn't match their commercials. read more

We attempted the curbside to go. Again. Been a few months since we tried it. And again they wouldn't bring it out. My husband had to go in. The staff acted bothered that we had a to go order. Whatever. We won't be back. Get home, my bourbon street steak was a mess. Way too many garlic shallots on the bottom of the steak, literally no bourbon sauce and was missing the crunchy onion toppers. That's the minor complaint. The steak was fatty ridden and the texture was like they boiled it in water. It would not cut. Not because it was tough but so fatty ridden the knife wouldn't slice. Had to tear apart with my hands and less than half was edible.there was no grill texture to it. My husband's chicken parm was fine. read more

I have been eating at this place for several years and have always gotten good service and food. Today (11/06/22) we waited 15 minutes for a server and then 35 minutes to get our food. The mashed potatoes were cold and sent back. The steak was supposed to be medium but was well done. Sent it back. Came back well done again and bottom of steak was black/burned. The waitress was very rude and did not check to see if we needed anything else or a drink refill. Finally got to see the manager and she apologized for everything and adjusted the bill. I will not be returning to this establishment. EVER read more

After an hour of sitting waiting for our food without a single refill we left a few dollars for our drinks and left. The funny/ nasty reason we left.... not the waiting. People next to us order some chicken wings. Waitress dropped half of the plate,,, looked around,, pick up the few pieces off the floor and put them back on the plate. Wish I was making this up. They were nicer than us I guess, they asked for a new order and stayed. Worst applebees in the country I'm sure of it. read more
