This was my best experience at Applebee's.
Top Shelf, Long Island Ice Teas - Amazingly delicious and strong enough to give a buzz; I will be back for this.
Mozzarella Sticks - Hot, cheesy and worth ordering again, came w/ marinara.
Spinach Dip - Hot and cheesy with a few pieces of artichoke in the dip. Chips were too salty, accompanied with a mild salsa, salsa was just ok.
Boneless Buffalo wings, Honey BBQ - Savory and sweet, accompanied with celery and ranch.
Onion Rings - Large pieces or onion, breading was too thick. Accompanied with BBQ sauce.
Blackened Chicken Penne - Amazing and slightly spicy. Blackened chicken over penne with diced tomato and a few leaves of spinach in a creamy alfredo all topped with extra cheese on top. Accompanied with a garlic bread stick. Craving this right now.
Service: Our server was attentive and recommended we add another drink before happy hour was over, I appreciated this.
Atmosphere: Causal, family friendly. The customers at the time depend on the special for that day. Misbehaving children has been rare.
Will I be back? Yes.
Applebee's is consistently good, usually I order the 2 for $20, but I choose the 7oz sirloin. I have noticed the sirloin with broccoli as a side has as odor. Perhaps it is the steamed broccoli, but I won't be getting that anymore.
The blackened chicken penne was worth ordering again, this also comes in the 2 for $24 deal, but is blackened sirloin.
The all you can eat soup and salad lunch special is delicious too. This special runs from 11AM to 3PM. There are about 8 salads to choose from and at least 2 soups; yes, you are able to mix and match. My favorites: French onion soup, pecan chicken salad, and the oriental salad (grilled).
Happy Hour Special :
1/2 price alcholoic drink, excluding shots.
1/2 price on selcet appetizers.
*** This is my first real review, feedback is appreciated.
