Yeesh, I hadn't been to an Applebee's in forever and was surprised to pick up their menu and find that it was full of pictures of salads and other 'healthy' food. Â I'm all for healthy food, but the menu seemed over the top and desperate to me.
I went with four other people for lunch, the place wasn't that busy and we were promptly seated. Â Our server was friendly and competent and I don't have a single complaint about her. Â
With all the health-food fanfare I was a little surprised to find a serious lack of vegetarian options. Â I wasn't in the mood for a salad - it would have been something ordered sans meat - so I went for a lunch combo consisting for a grilled bacon and cheese sandwich (minus the bacon) and tomato soup. Â The sandwich was yummy, but they only give you half of one for the combo and I didn't find it filling enough. Â The soup was tasty too.
We each opted for one of the $1.99 or was it $2.99 desert cups. Â I got key lime - it was okay - but wished I'd gone for the chocolate mouse one. Â
All and all, a good place for a basic, not too expensive meal.
