Located in the "New York City Center" mall, as of today, this is the only Applebee's in Rio. The…read moreplace was a bit busy during my visit and there were no tables available inside, I ended up sitting in this "exterior" area, outside their entrance, but still inside the mall. Wasn't that bad, but sitting inside would have been much nicer. I wasnt super hungry, and mostly came here cause there are no Applebee's in my home state. So I just ordered a "ultimate trio", it is sort of a sampler, where you get to choose 3 appetizers. I got the mozzarella sticks, sliders and nachos. It is a nice starter for 2 people. Overall I had a nice experience, although service was a bit slow. Would like to eat here again with more time, so I could wait for a table inside and be able to dig deeper into their menu.
