I also ordered. The quesadilla burger with fries that was really delicious. I would go back there again. Ps the food was flavorful read more

Service was great with new 'waitress in training' the wait was 20 minutes because they were short handed but we were served quickly after seated. We had 2/$25 so we chose the Big Bangin' Burger with xtra crispy fries with a side of tortillas and spinach, artichoke dip. The burger was spicy and we had four iced waters each.. it's just an afternoon Applebee's regular not too crowded American food ambience. The burger was great. The fries were great. Everything is good. Your sister got brownie bites with ice cream for a really reasonable after dinner. And as I've said before you get what you expect at a place like this just like Dairy Queen and I can't say anything was wrong. read more

So we had a little get together with manager Logan and tore down all the barriers and sources of mis-communication. Now we stop in at least once a week. The food is still decent and the menu is full of options. Tuesday is Salad day and every day is happy hour 3-5pm. Half of appetizers. read more

This was honestly one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant. It took a very long time to get our food, and between getting our drinks and our meals we were only checked on once. The service felt very inattentive. The spinach and artichoke dip was especially bad -- the flavor was so off that I couldn't even eat it. Overall the food quality and service were both really disappointing. read more

Absolutely dialed service and food, shoutout our waiter, dude was goated. Had a great burger and app that the waiter recommended

Everything you can expect for a high range fast food restaurant. The drinks are well made and worth the trip. It's a good choice if you can hit during their hours of discounted appetizers. read more

I enjoyed my job at Applebee's but the manager favoritism was too much. I want people to know that the general manager treats his employees like crap unless you're young and pretty read more

We waited FORTY MINUTES for our food to be brought out to us!! Unacceptable!!!! It will be a while before we return. read more

Autumn was our server and she was great. I got my usual Fiesta Chicken Salad and it was really good! The last time I got this particular salad at a different location it was too spicy for me to eat. When I expressed my concern to Autumn she assured me that she would see that it wasn't too spicy, and it wasn't. I'm glad I gave it another try because I was quite disappointed to think that I would no longer be able to eat my favorite salad. My friend that I was vacationing with really wanted to eat at a restaurant that wasn't a chain restaurant. Both of us are happy that we did not stick with that idea. read more

The wife and I stopped by for lunch and the server took are order, then served us the wrong items and then he told us that's what we ordered! I said need to talk to the manager told him that the wife pointed to the burger we both wanted and this isn't it! Little response from him, and after he(the manager) returned to the table to show us the menu and how easy it would be to get confused, still no apologies and no offer of any discount read more

The service was slow Until the manager served us. The pictures were nice. The food was So so. The scenery makes me feel comfortable. I would do it At 11 if you want lunch. So 2 stars read more

Applebee's has a menu that is very inviting.... however, the food is so salty I was drinking excess water for 2 days. I was with a party of 5...all but one person said they could not finish their meal due to the high salt content. Hopefully through reading reviews the chef will reduce the amount of salt while making the food. Salt can be added.. but not reduced afterwards. read more

I had a horrible experience here with my family. They were out of steak. Let me say that again. They were out of steak. So I ordered shrimp. And they were out of cocktail sauce. So I got ahold of applebee's home office to complain. They sent me an automated email saying they'd get ahold of me in 2-5 business days. That was 2-8-2023. I waited until 2-16-2023 and called them back with my case number because no one contacted me. I was told "they'd escalate my case". I'm still waiting. Don't go here. They aren't even open half the time. $86, waste of money. read more

I typically don't leave reviews for chain restaurants but I had to for this Applebee's! This is by far the friendliest Applebee's I have ever encountered! Talk about service with a smile! I called to order some food for pick up. Dawn answered the phone with the friendliest voice. She asked my name, which I know was necessary but she made it seem like she genuinely cared. She sent me to Sarah, the To-Go Specialist, who I could tell was just as friendly as Dawn! Just from over the phone I could tell they like their jobs and value customer service. Once I arrived at the Carside To Go parking, Sarah greeted me with a smile and took my payment right from my vehicle. I was early and she said she would go check on my order in the back! My order was brought out 7 minutes earlier than the type quoted and was delicious! Great experience! read more

The decor is great nice pictures. Service is not to good the manager was serving us instead of our waiter. the food was not that good steak was overcooked but dessert was great.we waited for a while to get the food. read more

I think they are in the middle of hiring new servers and getting everyone used to working there, the food was great like always, the service on the other hand was not great. Our server didn't bring us drinks until she brought the food and we had to ask for our drinks, she said she forgot. It was near the end of her shift so she sat down at a table across from us counting her tips out while we had empty glasses waiting for a refill and we needed a few things. She finished counting her tips and printed off our check without asking if we wanted or needed anything else. She was a sweet girl but not the best at customer service. The food was amazing as always! read more

39 minute wait and so far, sitting at a table for 15 minutes with not even a water.... Smh. Crappy service

I am one who tries to go with the flow but tonight was ridiculous at this restaurant. We had a new waitress who tried but the management was nonexistent. No drinks but food came out than appetizers, the wrong ones at that. Manager was sitting up front and continued to put more people in her section never asked if she needed help if held up tables. Had to beg for a box for food not eaten 3 times. read more

Poor service, poor food quality and extremely poor cleanliness. It won't be surprising when this chain location closes

I came in to order a Togo... the manager/host said they haven't done a Togo order in 6mths... ok... it's doesn't matter... I'm a customer... I understand nobody wants to work... if you don't want my business I can take it somewhere else... As a business owner myself I understand sometimes things can get out of hand... short staff or whatever it's is... I understand your frustration... but because you don't know me... don't ever act like your better then me.... Maybe corporate needs to step in and get training back in order... read more

The food was beyond greasy and my chicken wings were drier than my skin in the dead of winter.. when I used the bathroom there was a server who also used the restroom but failed to wash her hands afterwards thankfully she wasn't my server. My server named Aaron was very nice and extremely good at his job, probably the only good part about my there experience. Would not recommend but the wings are super cheap were read more

Sub par experience. Service was monotone, French onion was spongey, ribs were good enough but the Mac and cheese penne lacked taste and the fact the paired it with chicken strips and what only could taste like syrup was questionable. read more

This place is terrible! I'm honestly amazed that the food I was served was actually let out of the kitchen. It's like nobody cares, about anything. Presentation - terrible. Taste - Bad Service - Terrible I wish I could post a photo of this slop! read more

NO STARS! This place was nasty, the food is frozen, so the shrimp is mushy when cooked, the ribs were dry and over cooked, the steak tasted like they thawed it on the grill...the onion rings were good.... Service? Not so great either! read more

This restaurant has horrible service and the wait staff is full of ignorant idiots. They have no clue what they are doing and don't make their customers a priority. There is no organization what so ever and it was all together a very bad experience. read more

My husband and I came for dinner last night and were pleasantly surprised! Usually not big fans of other Applebee's, we stopped because it was convenient and glad we did. The chicken wonton tacos were fantastic and my salmon was perfect. Even the broccoli was really good! Service was friendly, quick and efficient.. I didn't catch our servers name but I wish I did bc she was great! Thanks for a good date night! read more

Omg!!! Cowboy burger all day every day! Would gladly get a case of gout to Keep eating this burger!!!! read more

Waitress was rude. Second time we've gone and had poor service. A few of the waiters are great, guess we just got the worst ones twice. We had chips that looked like they came from the bottom of the bag, the soup and salad got progressively worse. read more

This place usually has good food. Usually not too long of a wait. I really like their cocktail menu, one of the few restaurants I've been to where I can find a good mixed drink easily that I will like. Good service. read more

I'm not a huge fan of this chain but the one here close to our vacation house is awesome. Probably the best service I've ever received in an apple bees hands down! Our server Hannah was wonderful and should train staff around the nation. Food pretty good for an apple bees. read more

The service was terrible. Our waitress chucked our food at us. Than later came back to the table and started to argue with us saying she didn't chuck our food and proceeded to get in our face. read more

Would rate this lower if I could. Waited over an hour for food and order was incorrect and cold. Service is horrible, all employees seem to be drunk and sweating in the food. Won't be coming back. read more

I got a take out dinner. When I got home and looked at it I was very disappointed. The Mac and Cheese was dried up. the ribs were like they were from the day before and heated up.They put one little napkin in the bags. the people were very nice but it seemed like there was not manager on duty to make sure everything was correct when it went out the door. Extremely poor quality food. Very slow service. read more

Brought four older teens to Petoskey for a short vacation, and they wanted Applebees for dinner on the first night. This Applebees was very clean, and when we arrived we were seated right away so I thought it was going to be great. The waitress was new, and I felt for her. She did not know the menu yet, and seemed pretty confused by our fairly straightforward orders. She forgot two items, but we'd already waited a while, so we pushed on. At one point a very tall 55-60ish man, the manager? Came over to see how she was doing. He told us several things were out, and seemed stern about charging extra for non-standard sides. We were fine with that, but he was still abrasive. Setting an example? I don't know, maybe teenagers annoy him. The food was edible, but not special. It seemed like some of it had been frozen and reheated, so a little dry? It wasn't the greatest experience, but not the worst either. They need to put sweetener on the table, and the manager should take a chill pill. read more

Not particularly outstanding in any one category, but when considering price, quality of food, large ever changing menu, setting. and service, it is arguably the best restaurant in town. read more

Haven't been to Applebee's in a while and this one was pretty good! The waitress was busy but very attentive and provided quick efficient service! Food was good for the price! I'd go back read more

Waiter was very nice and tentative. Order the mozzarella sticks and they were cooked to perfection. Also ordered the American Standard Burger and garlic fries. The burger was delicious, as far as the garlic fries, not my most favorite, but that's for you to judge. Overall, very pleased with the service. read more

People are usually friendly, unless your there your on a off day. They changed the inside about a year ago. It has a much cleaner look to it than before, when all the pictures were hanging on the walls. Food is always good. No matter how busy they are. They keep up the standards. read more
