I debated between 1 star or 2 stars. Â I figure a one star rating would mean I would have conviction to NEVER return again (over my dead body.) Â I'm not sure I care to have that kind of conviction about Applebees, but the one star description is "Eek!." Â Eeek about sums it up.
I cannot understand why people choose to go to Applebees. Â There are so many other option in the area.
The only appetizer option that is not fried is the spinach and artichoke dip. Â And really it was not very good. Â
We went to Applebees because we figured they would have nice big salads. Â Well, they have salads, but they had none that I would choose to eat. Â The only non-meat salad option was shrimp, but they had bacon on that salad. Â
So, instead, I chose a bbq shrimp dinner. Â It was spicy, but not in a good way. Â It was spicy in a "I now cannot taste anything because this spice is smothering, not enhancing, my food."
We were rushed out of our table, understandable, because there were at least 15 people waiting for a table. Â When we left, the wait was 25 minutes. Â I cannot fathom why anyone would wait 25 minutes to eat here. Â It must be the half priced fried food.
