let me start off by saying that the service received from Quinton at this applebee's has made me a fan. so although the food IMO gets 3 stars.. the service is what will get me to come back.
had the 2 for 20 deal which is totally a steal. we had the spinach dip which was extremely fresh and hot and delicious. the chips were thin and crispy and went well with the salsa that also comes with this appetizer.
i ordered the provolone stuffed meatballs with fettuccine while my DC had the citrus lime chicken. i think that's the name of it. anyway.. my meatballs were really good but the fettuccine that came with was not so yummy. it was overcooked and sad. the white sauce was bland but was better after mixing it with the red sauce from the meatballs. the breadstick it came with was sad and undercooked. it was like those frozen ones you microwave..
the chicken entree was definitely much better. the chicken was super juicy and the rice it came with was good too. i was immediately jealous when i took a bite of this dish.
got the maple butter blondie for dessert because my DC had been craving it for MONTHS. i prefer chocolate desserts.. especially ones with melty insides lol. so this was not a winner in my book. but it's just preference.
anyway.. Quinton was extremely funny and friendly. like the kind of funny and friendly that makes your day. he was knowledgeable and professional as well. we definitely felt taken care of and i could tell he enjoys what he does.
