I went for the all you can eat so you pick either Shrimp; Chicken; or BBQ Ribs for 15'99 it comes with fries and Cole slaw I started with shrimp then moved on to chicken the portion started getting smaller then I asked for shrimp also asked for more fries are the shrimp before the fries came then I asked for the ribs by the time I got the ribs the fries were cold so I asked for hot ones like I said before the portions kept getting smaller then I said it was my birthday so you get a choice of dessert then asked for more ribs well the dessert came before I was done eating and was melted by the time I was ready to eat it talked with the manager so dessert got replaced so my birthday was a boo at Apple bees they say all you can eat but I say seems like they really don't want you to. read more

The Ultimate Trio is awesome! I love the chicken wonton tacos, but they are pretty pricey on the regular menu. The Trio is a better deal. It is $13.99 and you have your choice of appetizers. We prefer the quesadilla and two orders of the wonton tacos. Super yummy! Every day, 9pm-midnight the appetizers are half off also. Only certain ones. Monday-Friday 2-5pm they are half off too. Paul is an amazing server! read more

I came to the party of 63 adults three kids. My wet server was Chelsea. She was wonderful however, my two grandkids' school was not brought up after my husband and I ate our food and I ordered my steak 12 hours ribeye to be medium. Well, it came out well done. I just returned my steak because they were gonna make it again. I said no I don't like my food going back. I don't trust the kitchen when your food comes back. They didn't pre-bus by table. read more

Our group comes every Weds night because our bartender is the best ever. In Hebrew Abigail means "cause of joy". We agree. Whatever you're paying her isn't enough. Super efficient and fun! read more

My wife and I haven't been to Applebees for a few years. We used to go pretty regularly. We decided to go there today before the rush that happens usually around 5pm. We went in, met the hostess, asked for a window booth next to where I parked my Harley to keep an eye on it. She wanted to seat us on the opposite side of the restaurant. I insisted and she claimed that the EMPTY BOOTHS I was literally looking at were 'taken'. I insisted again and got a booth where I could watch my Harley. We chose our menu items and I chose a $3 pint of tap beer. The waiter was a nice enough guy. Someone else served the meals. Not him. My wife was served a Chicken dinner with mashed Garlic potatoes. The Chicken looked like it was under the warmer for an hour and not hot, and the mashed potatoes were tepid, also not hot. I ordered 4 cheese Mac and cheese with Chicken tenders. The Chicken literally looked like turds with a glaze sauce and the Mac wasn't even macaroni. It was a penne pasta with a tasteless white baeshimel (sp) sauce. No orange Cheddar cheese at all. The waiter took care of the issues with speed and accuracy. He gave stellar service and was tipped 'under the table' so as NOT to share with his undeserving fellow wait staff. Very dissatisfied and probably won't go back. Restaurants these days that have terrible management and food suppliers need to get it together or 'belly up' eventually. read more

When we arrived at Applebee's, they offered us the option to wait at the bar until our table was ready. We agreed and sat down to wait to be called. But while we were sitting there, we noticed that other people who came in after us were being seated before us. No one ever checked in with us or gave us an update, and we were just left waiting--hungry and confused. Eventually, I had to get up and ask what was going on. They just said it was okay now, but honestly, it felt like they completely forgot about us. At that point, we decided to just leave. It was such a waste of time and really frustrating. Definitely not the kind of experience I'd expect from a place like Applebee's. read more

Please bring back thousand island dressing for those who still enjoy it for their salads. I'm very disappointed it's not available anymore.

Decided to hit up happy hour after a movie. I haven't been to Applebee's in YEARS. I learned many things changed since the last time I've been here. Not all apps are happy hour and they only had 805 in a bottle. Oh well. Decided to share the sampler, extra order of wings and an order of wonton tacos with the friends as it turned out to be cheaper than happy hour deals. The food was okay.... It's Applebee's. Our waitress... I think her name was Mary was PHENOMENAL. read more

I stopped by Applebee's for Thanksgiving dinner. I have to say I was very disappointed. Thin deli sliced turkey from a 3" thick deli roll. About 10 slices. Not a cooked turkey, microwaved. The stuffing, gravy, potato and green beans were all good. But the star of the show was the problem. Not worth the $17 charged. I was probably better off getting a Hungry Man Turkey dinner for less than $5. No complaints about other food and service which are usually very good. This is on the company, not the employees! read more

I have been coming to this location for more than a few years now, the things that keep me coming back, the great food, amazing people who really know how to take care of you, a very clean restaurant, music, and very comfortable seating! I very highly recommend this restaurant and all the wonderful staff, especially Megan! read more

We like Applebee's! We go in there and eat every once in a while! They seemed to have good deals. I like looking at the pictures on the walls. It's all local stuff I'm talking about the Riverbank Applebee's! Everybody's always friendly and we get good service and if you want to have a drink, they have some killer drinks! The only thing we noticed the last time that we really didn't care for was our waitress had 2 inch long fingernails that is not sanitary. They were so long she picked everything up with the sides of her fingers. She gave good service, but her fingernails were very distracting. I kept thinking about how you do your hygiene in the bathroom when you have fingernails like that kind of grossed us out. Because of the distraction nasty fingernails. That's why we gave three stars. read more

Sally is so amazing and friendly. She is very great to be very helpful. Because of her we have returned them multiple times. read more

After a moratorium of many years from eating at Applebee's due to poor service and mediocre food, I decided to give them another try. Fast forward several years later and a different location, and it has made a world of difference. The decor here is definitely very dated so don't expect much as far as ambiance goes. The restaurant was pretty full when I arrived, but I was seated fairly quickly. This place is loud. The cacophony of TV's playing sports throughout the restaurant and patrons conversing loudly is a common theme here. If you are coming here for a quiet dinner, you have come to the wrong place. It is well suited for families and large groups. Service here has been very good. A far cry from what I experienced before my moratorium on Applebee's. I can even say that some servers are excellent and consistently so. Madelaine, Julie, and Paul have always treated me, my friends, and family very well. Management has been very friendly too. The food here is actually pretty good. Many times it can be excellent. Pricing is very reasonable too if you get their "2 For" specials on the back of the menu. They also have lunch specials served until 4 pm. My biggest complaint, many times the dishes are not served hot. I often order the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo and it is almost always served lukewarm at best. I simply have them reheat it and I am OK. It should have been served hot from the get go though. They can also be a bit skimpy with the Alfredo sauce. Ask for more if needed. If you are into desserts, I highly recommend the Cinnabon Mini Swirls. Warm, delicious, and served with a generous helping of cinnamon, sugar, and cream cheese frosting. It comes with caramel too, but I forego the caramel as the Cinnabon's are already sweet enough for me. These are addicting to say they least. Don't say I didn't warn you. One thing to note to make your experience here as good as it can be. They will accommodate almost any change they can to prepare your food to your liking. If there is something listed that you don't like on a dish, let them know up front. They will go out of their way to make sure you are happy with your food. They accommodate my friend who is very picky. She loves that they do not look down upon her for making special requests. After all, customer service and good food is what keeps people coming back. read more

Listen here, you have give credit where credit is due. We have had a bad experience at Applebees in Turlock. We came in and from the young man who greeted us by Anthony to Ethan ask if we wanted to switch to a booth instead of the table were great. Then our waitress, Erica. Made it like we were in a 5 star place. Her service was great!!!! I will be back and I will be asking for her again. read more

The food tasted microwaved and was not good. Our service was not that great. Unfortunately it has been like that the last few times we have went. read more

It's the Applebee's menu. So no big surprises. We usually don't have to wait too long for a table. That's been a plus but the food hasn't knocked our socks off. I think you just understand that with chain restaurants. You know what your looking for. It's clean and the service is ok. Our waiter didn't know we had been seated in his section and it took forever for someone to take the order. He was apology. read more

The prices are better than many other restaurants. Right now they have all you can eat shrimp, giblets or chicken nuggets for 14.99. They were super busy tonight, but they did a pretty good job. We got shrimp, giblets and then the chicken. It was pretty good for the price. You get coleslaw, fries and pick your choice of the 3. When you finish, they ask if u need a refill on meat & fries, we got riblets & chicken. It was plenty to eat and worth 14.99. read more

Poor service an rude. Would've tip if the service was better a the server not giving attitude.. an I had mentioned about the fries but unfortunately it was cold only offered me $2 what a joke lol not to mention the server decided to use my card an tip herself when I never tip her. So basically she was stealing money from my account. Be careful from this location they steal money. read more

Typical Applebee's. Okay service. Wish they still had bingo. Steaks are okay for a SYSCO serving chain type restaurant. Booths needs some of the springs replaced. read more

Bad experience. Very Bad customer service. Ordered a refill for my fries, a waitress brought me an uncooked fries.

as soon as I sat at the bar; Sally, the bartender asked me if I wanted my fireball w a chaser of coke! thank you for remembering btw! Made me feel kinda special :) I always feel so welcomed by her and the manager, Megan No matter how busy it is, they always seem to strike up a conversation with me & they are always so sweet!! ...So I've worked with food before, and I know how hectic it can be! Especially during the weekends!! I came here with a group of friends on a Friday night and ofc the drinking got a little out of hand.. I know my table was being obnoxious, but just wanted to say that our waiter, IAN (the strawberry blonde - ginger) did a killer job!! My friend asked for his drink to be remade about 3 times and not once did ian hesitate or look annoyed. He is fast, super polite, and still found ways to make our table laugh, even though we were probably annoying. Again, I apologize. I come here solo all the time now and big thanks to Logan, one of the other servers, who always remembers to bring a bottle of hot sauce out with my food order:D *These small efforts make a big difference* By reading the reviews, I can tell that most People do NOT understand how the system works when working in a restaurant 1. "certain" servers are assigned to "certain" tables 2. sometimes the kitchen gets backed up 3. The world does not revolve around you Just because your server is the one bringing out the food, doesn't mean it is his/ her fault. STOP acting like a KAREN. You wouldn't have been complaining about the restaurant in the first place, if you weren't too lazy to cook for yourself or kids, "Tifferdoo" People are so bitter these days Anyways. My friends and I always enjoy our time here:) P.S/ try the Chicken Alfredo PASTA!!!!!!!!! read more

I like how they have outdoor seating now. The waitress was very kind & friendly. I had won ton tacos I highly recommend them or the pretzel with beer cheese, both are great choice for appetizers. My entrée was the oriental chicken salad wrap it was very good.

Ordered the burbon street steak with high hopes and the steak was horrible. not a single taste of burbon or even ANY seasoning at all. Just straight meat. the potato's that came with it where okay just straight potato mash not to much garlic flavor. the service seemed to be slow in the beginning but it looked like they were understaffed at the moment so i can understand. Once seated the guy who was helping us was nice and brought everything good time nothing bad about him all good! But 22$ for a bland steak and okay potato mash is not right. read more

I don't know WHY everyone leaves such terrible reviews. But I was hesitant to come here because I read many reviews and wasn't having high expectations. But... everything was really good! We had 5 people in our group everyone enjoyed their food service was quick. We were tending to with everything we needed. Our server was very good. so don't listen to the negative reviews they must just be negative people. They exceeded my expectations. read more

I have experienced a very saddened experience. I stop in with my friend for a drink before heading to the Sierra Rep. The waitress was clueless and even asked what Baileys was. My friend asked to pay the bill n she gave the waitress $20 n she brought change we thought so she left a tip n we left. Well our other friends were there too n were asked if they knew us n they said yes she said we didn't pay our bill. Our friends paid our bill but my question is why would she just bring back change for the $20 n not take out what we owed. My friend didn't count the money just left the tip thinking she had taken out for the drinks. Very insulting to us to think we didn't pay our bill. We are seniors and hv more sense than that. We will not be stopping there again. Better train your waitresses better. read more

The 2 for $25 was great tonight. First of all, we had the best server in a long time. She was really nice, on time with everything, actually came back to ask if we needed anything, and brought everything we asked for to us fast. The 2 for $25.00 was the best food for the price I've had in a while. The chips and salsa, plus Spinach in Hot Melted Cheese dip was very good. My "Oriental Chicken Salad" was very good, and very large. I couldn't even eat it all. I just wish it had the Peanut Sauce dressing or Sesame Ginger. It comes with a kind of Teriyaki Sauce (in a very small, little bowl) and something like Coleslaw dressing, but it was good anyway. Mine came with an amazing Breadstick. I don't know what all it was made with, but it was warm and fresh and really good. My roommate said his hamburger was good. read more
