My work schedule prohibits me from visiting Applebee's as often as I like. When I get the chance, I visit the Rainbow location. If you arrive at the right time, you'll be greeted at the door by the always smiling and helpful Ninfa.
Stick to the basic fare that Applebee's is known for and you will most likely enjoy a decent meal. The bar is especially attractive to the local crowd that doesn't want to deal with smoke and video poker machines begging you for your last dollar. The service ranges from good to great, as long as you remember that during their busiest of times, there could be be dozens of people wanting attention as quickly as you.
