"Applebee's is a chain restaurant and once you've been there you pretty much know what to expect. One guest in our party had the Three Cheese Chicken Cavatappi. The kitchen was happy to substitute the chicken for shrimp as requested. However, At $11.99 the meal could at least come with a couple breadsticks or side salad. Compare this to Olive Garden's chicken Alfredo at $14.99 that comes with unlimited breadsticks and salad. Another member of the party had the heart healthy Thai shrimp salad. At 370 cal it is spicy and satisfying with a decent portion of grilled spicy shrimp. The steak on another's steak salad was nicely medium rare. Service was friendly and prompt on that Sunday for a 2:00 lunch."^^ . . . "2017-03-06T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . . "1"^^ . "4"^^ .
