My boyfriend absolutely loves Applebee's, but I have always been more hesitant on it, since it reminds me of other restaurants such as Chili's, TGI Friday's, etc. I have been to this particular location at least five times now, and each time the experience has ranged from good to bland. Unless you are drinking wine (since they don't actually make the wine), your drink will be completely watered down and you might wonder if there is even any alcohol in it. They do attempt to have some weight watcher meals on the menu, but all of them have been extremely bland. I will say that the last time we went, I had their new Mexican Margarita Queso platter and it was pretty good, and I was pleasantly surprised. The service is always slow and at times even downright rude. At our last time there, our server basically ignored me and only spoke to my boyfriend. He also left our dirty plates on the table and just let us sit in our filth. I definitely only come here for my boyfriend's occasional cravings, but I would never come here by myself.
Review Source:Disappointing, to say the least. My wife and I enjoyed the "2 for $20" at a Racine A-bees, so thought we'd try this one for a take-out since I work near here. Our order was repeated back to me just fine, but the meal we got wasn't what we ordered. The appetizer was completely wrong and our small steaks were cooked all the way to just above raw when we ordered medium well. Since it was take out, we were pretty much stuck with it. When I called the manager, she apologized profusely, promised to send us a certificate for another meal, and indicated she would look into it. Â The certificate arrived as promised. We tried it again with the certificate. The service was inattentive, the meal average, and the wait for our food was much longer than I would have expected for not being busy. I think we're going back to Racine if we do A-bees again.
Review Source:My first visit to an Applebee's was hopefully my last. My parents usually don't favor chains for Saturday night dinner. And I figure this may be the last visit to one for a long time. This A-bee's is chock full of your Packers memorabilia from the mid-90's. The recent "Glory Days" is all A-bee's could muster? Our party of six had to wait twice as long as any party of four, because this place does not cater to parties larger than 4. Well, there were two possible tables, but waiting for Milwaukeeans to leave the trough is like; well I said it already didn't I?
The mostly young and large wait staff is polite enough but the Youth shows through. We waited for 45 mins. and weren't offered so much as a free appetizer for our troubles? I'm with my grandma for crissakes! Throw us some chicken fingers at least! Once we were seated, our waitress was attentive enough. But she thought the drink special for the night was a Pomegranate Margarita and it turned out to be a martini.
Once we got our food it was brought out by a different waitress that my mom and I noticed had the most unmelodious voice ever heard. She embodied my whole "stuck in Applebee's" feelings into vocal form, then equalized out any bass and cranked up the Nasal. Just put the food down and run away, please! She couldn't even call my dish by it's name "Cajun Lime Tilapia" and called it "Weight Watchers". Yes, I ordered off the Healthy menu, thank you. I give one extra star above banal crapulosity, because at least we all liked our meals.
Grandma take me home, grandma take me home, grandma take me home...
