I'm not one for chain restaurants, but on a Monday weeknight after 10pm, you're choices are limited. This is why we decided to go to Applebee's. I never really had an issue with them before, but I'd just rather spend my money somewhere local instead.
Service was shaky. Our waitress was nice, but seemed a little nervous. Maybe she was new? There also weren't many tables and it seemed to take her quite some time to check on us and refill.
The food is where the two stars come from. We ordered tacos as an appetizer. No problems there. My boyfriend and I both ordered the steak. Now, granted, its Applebees steak, but it was very gummy tasting. Texture was strange. I ordered a baked potato which wasn't even warm and fully cooked (I noticed another table had the same issue) and garlic green beans that were lukewarm and soggy. My boyfriend wasn't impressed with his sides either.
I will say, you get lots of food for the price. An appetizer, two salads, four sides, two steaks and a beer came to be around $45 after tip. Then again, I guess you get what you paid for. Needless to say, I don't think we'll be returning anytime soon.
