Lots of choices on the menu--pretty much anything you might want from good appetizers, chicken, steaks, pasta, a little bit of Cajun and a little bit of Asian. I just can't say that the food is spectacular but it is tasty and filling and served with a smile.

The early bird appetizer and wine list is very extensive. The food is tasty and the wait staff always friendly and helpful.

The food and service is excellent at this location! I love the perfect margarita! The bartenders are amazing! Defiantly try and drink from Chad or Deanna! They even work on the snow days! The only restaurant open! I recommend this one for sure!

Chose the riblet basket and I enjoyed it. The meat was very tender, adequate quantity, and the sauce was very good. Never had this style before, so while it is lacking the bony ribs, there are flat pieces of bone. This made a hearty meal..

Ordered an Asian Pineapple burger . . . . . It was great ! The staff was friendly and the food was better than good. Would go again !

We took our son and family to Applebee’s tonight since we were visiting the Portland area. The food was typical Applebee’s which is consistently good and the slush drinks were plentiful. I enjoyed the fish and chips with an IPA beer. The service was very good especially considering we had 3 small kids and 4 adults. I’d eat here again so highly recommend.

I go to Applebee's more often than I'd like to admit. The food is ok and they have a kids menu. The last couple of times I've gone I've had the server named Erin. Erin hates her job and couldn't be less interested in doing her job. At best she's gonna take your order and drop it off... That's it. No smile, no check to see if everything is okay. Thank god you can pay at the table using the little table top computer they have, if I had to wait for Erin to get around to it I fear I might still be there. I will continue to go there but will make sure that Erin won't be serving me again!

They recently closed our local Applebee’s where we’ve always had greT meals. So we tried the next closest one for Fathers Day, since I’d since signed up for their promotional email program. The place was very busy, but we were immediately seated. After an extended time reviewing the menu (my wife is very careful due to dietary and dental limitations), the waiter, Sean, patiently answered questions and was very obliging and refreshingly affable. We may ask for him the next time we go in. At first I wasn’t interested in a drink, but later ordered a beer I’d never tried. When the dinner came, the girl asked which of us got the rare sirloin and I acknowledged. Not long into the meal I noticed my steak wasn’t all that red and the wife’s was; the server had reversed us. We exchanged steaks. About then it’d been 10 minutes since I’d ordered the beer and I figured I wasn’t getting it. I was 2/3 through my meal when a server showed up with it, apologizing. Sean came by on his rounds and was not happy to discover the oversight, apparently originating at the bar. Both the meal and the Hops beer were superb, and admittedly I was kinda hoping for the beer being cost-free given the bar negligence, but no. In fact, part of the reason I changed my mind and ordered it was discovering the table placard mentioning “Happy Hour”, which we were there during. But the beer was $6 and not discounted. I didn’t gripe, as I figured maybe H.H. didn’t apply on Sundays or holidays. One unique thing we like is Applebee’s use of digital machines at each table that can be used by both waiter and customer for ordering and payment, and entertainment games as well if you or your kids are bored. With so many tables, it helps the staff keep orders straight, although which customer at any table gets what might be an improvement, or in our example which steak among similar plates is cooked to which degree... perhaps more of an oversight of marking at the grillmaster’s end than the waitstaff’s. There were at least 4 different staff members involved in our service, so I reckon confusion during the busiest times can happen. Regardless, the overall experience was good and the meals delicious. Had the steak mixup and latent beer thing not occurred, five stars would’ve been awarded. Sean’s personality helped me overcome any thoughts of diminished recompense, and our attitude was that he deserved a 20% tip. (I still think the beer shoulda bin discounted if not free 😉 ).

My wife and I went to Applebes in order to take advantage of their Veteran's Day free meal and the food was great. We couldn't believe how busy they were and the staff deserved Purple Hearts for going above and beyond and performing admirably under intense heavy fire from all directions. And all the while smiling and joking with the vets. I'm pretty sure I would've buckled under that much pressure. Thank you to the entire staff.

We ordered food to go …..eat there or order food offen, but was disappointed the last time we eat there and very disappointed this time with out food to go pick up order, one dish we ordered was the macaroni and cheese. It was supose to come with bacon in mac and 4 chicken strips . Ther was only 2 chicken strips and no bacon in mac. & cheese. The other dish we ordered was the fiesta chicken . In came with no pico on it……..VERY DISAPOINTED!

Love the lighter fare menu when I have to eat so late. Service is always awesome. Never had a bad meal, and they always brew fresh decaf for me!

I usually try to refrain from writing reviews on big chain restaurants. We stopped in for a quick dinner and the 2 for 25 was really good. We opted for the two salads instead of a appetizer and all be those salads were huge. Almost a meal to themselves. Took most of our dinner to go and had a easy meal on the morrow. We also shared a strawberry lemonade and it was also very pleasant and you get one free refill. Service was good and overall a really good meal.

We hadn't been in years. Great food, kids loved it, good service, we'd go back. The have a tablet at the table, it makes paying super fast.

Nothing really over the top to say about this location. It was a pleasurable dinning experience. Much quieter than other Applebee's we have been too. The service was above average. The food was about average, nothing special. The best thing about the experience was the speed of service. It was a fairly busy night, but we were still seated very quickly and the waitress was there to take our drink order within moments of being seated. It took her about 2 minutes to return with drinks and take our food order. We waited less than 10 minutes for the appetizers and from there it was about 20 minutes before we got our dinner. By far the best timing and wait I've ever had at an Applebee's or any other chain for that matter.

Food was okay and service passable. I did not like the way they pushed the ipad ordering. They actually got a little nasty because I said I knew what I wanted and please take my order. When I wanted more iced tea, I did try the pad to order more and never got it so there ya go. My waitress was busy with a large group and I never saw her again after I place my order. I had to ask the manager for my check. All things considered, it is an okay place if you are in the area.

Happy hour!

Applebees fit the bill a as family place where I could follow the NBA game so we decided to eat here. The menu certainly seems to have fewer healthy choices. I wanted house chips and got French fries instead so the wait person brought me the chips. Thus I got to sample both and neither was good and the fries were on the cold side. My son, usually a great eater and fan of Applebee's, didn't evenfinish his pork sandwich! The staff was friendly and accommodating as usual. This place had new table side tablets and one could order, play games (for a price), and pay; not sure how I feel about that but didn't care for it this first time and probably the last time I go there. As expected, the game was on plus. Lots of other baseball games, too so no disappointment there.

Had a great meal here, the place was really nice and clean. The waitress was very good and everyone was nice. Had a great steak! Would go back for sure.

Just the same as any other Applebee's, but this time the service was blazing fast - since I informed the server that I was in a bit of a hurry. The quality of the food did not suffer at all. Ordered the Thai Shrimp Salad which did not disappoint.

I need to eat gluten free and the waitress was helpful with my order. My food was good and fairly priced. My friends said they enjoyed their choices, also. I do wish they'd have a gluten free bun or bread for a sandwich, though. I ended up having a loaded baked potato that they made as per my request.

We stopped in last night after work and had a nice Happy Hour glass of Cabernet-not the best- but ok for Happy Hour wine. The service was good, the staff is pleasant and accomodating and the salads that we always get were as good as always. The appetizer that goes with the 2 for $20.00 is always predictable and good. We like this for a quick dinner and the price is certainly right. We always have the Oriental chicken salad and you can have it the way you want it. That would be grilled or crispy chicken, noodles or not, almonds or not, dressing or not, etc. The staff are more than willing to serve your food as you would like it prepared. We attend this restaurant quite a lot. The service is good, the food is good and the price is right.

Stopped by after the movies. Daughter and wife shared the scrimp and chicken and a wedge salad. They said that it was good and would reorder again. I ordered The special of pork riblets and fried chicken. The service was very good. But, my dinner was a complete mess. The riblets barely had any meat on them, and the bones out weight the meat. I guess next time I’ll stick to the burgers.

Stopped in here for a bite to eat to rest up a bit after 6 hours on the road. Super friendly staff. Very attentive but not intrusive. Haven't been to an Applebee's in years. Food was lots better than the last time. Half price appetizers during happy hour. Everything tastes fresh and well cooked. Good value for the portion size.

I do not go to Applebee's much, or even out to eat that much, but when service is prompt, caring, and one person commanded the whole area so well, you have to give notice. Taylor, she does not deserve to work at that level, and deserves more. She is young and made the whole dinner experience. Very nice, made it work, always yes, and I will make sure we call corporate.

My husband ordered fajita plate, it was so huge, he couldn't finish his meal which is very unusual. Presentation was good. Mouthwatering. I ordered Oriental chicken wrap. I liked they use half cabbage and half romaine lettuce combination. And dressing (sauce) on side. French fry was pretty good. We also ordered boneless chicken nuggets BBQ sauce flavored. We would like to try other flavor next time. The server was friendly and warm. Bathroom was clean.

We have always had a very good experience and food at applebee's.No complaints as yet.. wait staff is very good at their job and they seem to take pride in their jobs and making customers happy in all manners.
Great food, Great Service, Great price
Applebee's is a great place for a fun relaxing dinner, great assortment of house drinks, large beer selection, and all at a reasonable price. Service was great, the entire staff all worked together as a great team. Food came quickly and hot and Fresh. Great place for friends or family gatherings.
