Applebee's

I've always had great service and good food at this location.

I've been to Applebee's many, many times in my life and I know there are some semi decent things on the menu but my food I had the other night was just gross. I went straight from the airport to Applebee's to have dinner with my parents. My dad and I got the 2 for $20 deal where you get 2 entrees and an appetizer for $20. Our appetizer was onion rings which were good (they better be, I mean how can you mess up an onion ring?). For my entree I chose the riblets. The meat just didn't seem to be very good quality. It was really fatty and had little chunks of cartilage in it in addition to the small bones that are supposed to be there. I know I am picky when it comes to fatty things and I know ribs are supposed to be a little fatty but these were just not good. And I have had riblets that are good before. I am glad that I didn't go there being super hungry. My meal ended up being a fry fest of the onion rings and the fries that came with the ribs. Applebee's sure knows how to make some fried food. I had a white peach sangria with my meal that wasn't all that great either. It was huge and came in this large glass goblet but it wasn't very strong. On a positive note the Applebee's employees were really nice and the service was good.

After that bad fried food meal at a bad chain restaurant one thing was for sure: I knew I was back in Indiana.
