These reviews are brutal. I came here one evening with some family for dinner. We were a party of…read moreeight, and the parking lot was pretty full. We got seated promptly, and had a very attentive server. Menus, drinks, apps, mains, like clockwork. I got the Applebee's Riblets Platter (An Applebee's original! Our famous slow cooked riblets, slathered in your choice of sauce. Shown with signature coleslaw and classic fries). I was excited, because I haven't had these riblets since I was a teenager. And this Riblet platter was everything I could have hoped for, nicely cooked, tender, sauced meat that fell off the bone, classic French fries, and I subbed my coleslaw for some more fries, because I was on vacation, ok? And all in all, the experience was everything I expected from an Applebee's. No more, no less.

I want to commend the staff here--they're amazing and work tirelessly, even when the restaurant is…read moreshort-staffed. The food always arrives hot and is typically spot-on. Plus, the environment and music create a good atmosphere. My main concern lies with the management, specifically the woman in red. She has been consistently and exceptionally rude during multiple visits, which seriously impacts the overall dining experience. The guy manager is very nice and friendly though.

Not going to sugar coat this one, this was really not a good experience for us. The place was busy…read morethat day which may have led to the slow service but we sat at the bar and it took almost 15 minutes to get our food order in... the food was cold and not representative of what was on the menu. I had the Thai inspired flat bread and it was not good... the only thing that made it Thai inspired was the chili sauce and it the cheese was barely melted so it was cold quick! We also had fried green beans and I felt they were fried in week old oil. Again just not good food. Overall, the space is awesome and a great place to watch a sports game but if you're going for food there are better options in town...

I'm not that picky, so if I'm not feeling my burger and regular fries or the cheese curds or the chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries and I even think the milkshake is one sip and well I guess this isn't actually awful, well, yeah.

Just lettuce and tomato's onions and some chips. No cheese no olives very blah for the price. My husband had a brisket sandwich and said it was good. The Long Island I order was very weak.
