I grew up with Applebee's back home. It was one of the first chains outside of Eat'n Park I went to in a regular occasion. I don't get here as much as I used to by any means, but as of late we've been using their Carside to go, so my review is for this service.
Three main reasons I've gone back twice: the price, the service, the promptness.
Applebee's, like most chain restaurants have done a good job over the years to keep their prices down with $10 meals and 2 for $20 offerings. Every time we come here I feel that we got a good deal.
Using Carside to go has been a pleasant experience. They seem to put some of their best employees working this section and they've all been incredibly nice. Even better, they focus on your food being exactly ready at the time you selected. That way when you get home it's as fresh as it can possibly be.
I'd recommend you give it a shot.
