I just finished dinner at this Applebee's. I was alone, and the hostess immediatly took me to the bar area for seating which was exactly where I did NOT want to go, so I had to ask her for a table and she was hesitant and puzzled. My server was pleasant and friendly, and the service was quick. The wine (Sutter Home Cab) was good. The water was good. I ordered double vegetables in lieu of the potatoes, and they were ok (about what you would expect in an Applebee's). The 12 oz strip steak, however, was not very good. It was overcooked and somewhat tough. As a result, I can only rate this visit as "average".
