Tonight was NOT a good a good night.. I ordered the parm shrimp and sirloin.. shrimp cold, parm NOT melted and it tasted like it was just taken from the freezer.. the water was not filtered.. straight tap water... and the waitress was not attentive at all... the lunch service is 1000 percent better.... read more

The Pecan encrusted chicken salad with candied pecans, blue cheese crumbles, cranberries, celery, and oranges is what's up at Applebees. Nobody can tell me they don't like Applebees order this salad, don't order something specialized like fish and be all disappointed, this is Applebees, keep it simple stupid. Their tomato soup is good but the chicken tortilla you can skip. It's all good in the neighborhood. read more

I want you to think twice about ordering the Steak and Shrimp combo here. It is extremely salty. Staff were helpful and nice though.

Andy the bartender was amazing. I got appetizers and beers for a couple nights, and he was so on top of everything! You want another drink? More water? Another napkin? Something to eat? He obliged with inhuman speed. The wonton tacos and boneless chicken wings really hit the spot as a great snack. I only wish they had a local IPA on tap! But the Isotope Amber and Sam Adams seasonal were still good. read more

This Applebee's is conveniently placed, but that's about it. The food is mediocre at best. The location and price is the most ideal about this business. The appetizers are cheap and the happy hour drinks aren't badly priced. I came here after looking for food my first time flying into Albuquerque. Now that Chili's is right down the street, I think prices may drop even more than they already are. The place gets pretty crowded, especially on weekends. I've went alone and sat at the bar to avoid the wait. On the one occasion I did meet someone there, I waited about 15 minutes to be seated. I started to leave but I wasn't trying to find another location so last minute. Save yourself the trip. read more

Standard chain fare of unexceptional food, complimented by a bar with five mediocre beers on tap. I asked for an IPA and got a can. A can of beer. Their only IPA was in a can. This is all you need to know about Applebee's. read more

Got there after midnight one day after a cross-country flight. They were the only place open in the area. Must have been my lucky night. They were having a buy-one-get-one-free offer on their appetizers. I got a nacho plate which was large enough to be my dinner. I saved the free plate for breakfast (they brought that out in a to-go box). They also had $1 margaritas! Not much alcohol, but hey, $1! Staff was also really friendly. read more

Be careful. I paid cash as is my habit and the server shortchanged me $20. I will stop short of saying it was intentional but without naming the amount she quickly handed over a $20 bill from her personal pouch. "If it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, it is probably a duck." Check your bill closely. BTW I called Applebee's consumer line and they were not available. Not a good sign. read more

Barely decent food. This was one of the only restaurants near my hotel. I ate here for dinner two nights since I was too tired to search out something better and wasn't impressed either time. The first night I had the portabella steak, which was small and had poor excuses for portabella mushrooms. The next night I ordered the steak & riblettes combo. This steak was okay, but the riblettes were full of bone pieces and fat. Yuck! However, I did enjoy the chocolate oreo shooter for dessert. Just enough chocolety goodness at a good price. I have had better experiences at other Applebees, but it's never my my first choice if I have an option. read more

Waitress Kc was great very friendly. Great service. Food came out fast and tasted wonderful

I visited the Applebee's at : 2000 Yale Blvd SE, Albuquerque, NM 87106 on 9/25 from 6pm until 7:30. I haven't been to Applebee's in several years and thought I would try it again. I ordered the 3 meal combo (salad, wings and steak, Bahamas mama) at a table in the bar. My food was good, and service was excellent. I would have gone back to an Applebee's in the future if it wouldn't have been for the Applebee's manager of that location sitting at the table next to me getting drunk and sexually harassing the bartender (his employee). He was extremely loud and obnoxious, which is the reason I knew he was the manager of that location. He also kept going into his office at the restaurant with his key. I'm shocked that a person would act that way in front of customers and his staff. At one point the bartender asked him to lower his voice when he used the word "vagina". I will certainly never be going back to any Applebee's. I do hope that you start to hire individuals that want the position to set an example, coach, train and in turn make you money. I will also be posting this review on Yelp in hopes that the manager is dealt with and is not allowed to act that way in the future. Hiring quality individuals that don't drink on the job, fondle employees and take their job seriously, aren't hard to find. You will have more business if you hire, train and coach better people. read more

We went to Applebee's a couple of times while in Albuquerque. Their food is tasty and the beer is cold. The service was quick. Several TVs had games on. It was the best we found near the Albuquerque airport. read more

Apple bees isn't my favorite in general, so only 3 stars. But it was pretty good and the service was amazing for how busy it was! read more

The service was good, but the food wasn't. Certainly not worth the money. This restaurant uses far too much salt, which I think is common at Applebee's. The overall quality of this chain has slipped over the years. read more

I end up here because it is across from a research center that I go to for work occasionally, and it doesn't suck. For a chain, seriously some of the nicest people work here, food isn't horrible and good happy hour prices. read more

Half price appetizers equal half sized appetizers. I don't care about the cost, but I will say had I paid full price for the 3oz of queso I received this review would be much worse. I got some dumb ass reasoning that on monday they decreased the portions... not oh I'm sorry sir or can I get you something different ? Just "you're right it's an extremely tiny portion". My friend enjoyed his food so I gave this location an extra star and the bartender Justin wasn't bad. read more

Came in late and sat at the bar. Ordered the chicken won tons and was disappointed. The chicken was mushy and not in the won tons at all. It looked like it was thrown on. The presentation was horrible. They tasted like old food and the seasoning was overly spiced. Too hot for me. I ordered a draft and it came out in a hot glass and tasted flat. The glass was dirty. I didn't drink much. The bartender was friendly but didn't seem to care much. Not worth going back. Where I sat servers clustered around and I was uncomfortable. Left very disappointed. read more

Awesome prices for some good food, the new sandwiches they have are great, I've had the maple chicken and kickin turkey and they're both awesome. read more

Sat at the bar for a drink while ordering ToGo & received excellent service from bartender Andy. Food was delicious and packed up with all the cutlery/condiments/napkins necessary. read more

As Applebees go this place is ok. Located amongst a number of hotels/motels near the airport, it tends to be very busy. The waiter was attentive and nice, and it was kind of cute to see a gaggle of waitresses enthralled by the London Olympic Games opening ceremonies on this night. I suppose that means some folks were not getting their food on time. The Bourbon Blue Cheese burger can be tasty, but only if you happened to get a bite with the sauce in it. read more

Servies was barely ok, I ended up ordering the steak. It was horrible. Then while I chewing on a piece of fat, the waitress ask if I had room for desert. Lol. Not worth anyone's time. Just a place to go and have a beer if your staying in the near by hotels. read more

Bar service sucks. They need to learn how to treat their customers better, there are no locals here's just people from hotels, and be prepared to be treated like dirt. read more

We came in after a long day of meetings and Jennifer our server was great. She knew the menu well and her recommendations were spot on. She was very attentive and took the time to ensure our visit was enjoyable even though she was pretty busy. We will definitely be back! read more

Let me start by saying I've been a waitress/bartender for years. Tonight we were served by Joshua. I recently turned 21 and they refused to accept my vertical ID. It's not expired and it's not like I can get a new one with COVID going on. That's too bad because he would have probably received a $20 tip on just one drink alone since I work in the industry. I love to pay it forward. But I also believed I was trained to check on my tables often and not stand at the bar talking with other servers. He kept handing my food and other items to other people at the table instead of me. I believe I was also trained to bring drink refills as soon as customers drinks are half full, not ten minutes after the drinks are sitting there empty. Maybe he should go through training again. Will never return. I don't mean to be a Karen but I know what effort when serving entails... but applebees for sucking so bad tonight. read more

Absolutely terrible customer service. Totally dismissive arrogance. Only gave 1 star bc I had to choose a star to post. Zero stars is more accurate. read more

It was going well at first. I was excited because I thought this would finally be a good Applebee's experience, but we were disappointed. We went on a slow night with many servers having little to do. We were seated quickly in a quiet corner. The waitress was nice. However, she wrote down our child's drink order, which we did not approve of, without double checking with us, which led to tears when we refused it. Once our drinks were served and our meal ordered, we waited. Then suddenly the music was turned up to jarring volume and it took nearly 10 minutes for us to flag down another server, who saw us waving from afar and sent for our server, who still took her time. My husband had already gotten up to find her when she finally appeared. She turned the music back to a normal, pleasant volume and promptly brought our food. Then somebody turned the music up again. And it took a while (but not as long as the fist time) for our server to check on us and turn the volume down again. Meanwhile, I was happy with the flavors of my Butcher's Meat and Potatoes, but I husband's steak was so chewy, he couldn't cut it into small enough pieces to enjoy. And then the music got turned up AGAIN!!! Needless to say, we were not happy at all! We asked for the check and promptly left. Usually we like to sit and enjoy each other for a few minutes while finishing up, but not here. We will not be back. read more

Food is the same as all Applebee's. There was a broom and dust pan leaning against my table and a mop bucket right next to it. One of the servers even kept coming back to ring out her ray in the bucket... my knife handle was also melted like it had been left on the stove at some point. Over all not a great experience. read more

I got one of the less than 600 calorie dinner meals. It was grilled shrimp and broccoli in a cream sauce on a "bed" of curly pasta. The main reason it was under 600 calories was because it was too terrible to eat! Tiny salty shrimp in over cooked pasta in a flavorless salty sauce with cold wet frozen broccoli . Good thing I ordered the side salad or I would have less hungry. As it was with my 6 oz wine the meal cost over $25. I wish I would have done anything but this. read more

Walked in to Applebee's. Asked if happy hour was going on still. It was. But when the bill came we did not discount on our drinks. Old Fashioned and Bud light drinks were not included. Only certain margarita and others beers were discounted. Not going again. read more

Food is just ok. Our server Nivia was the worst I've ever seen. We sat around for 15 minutes waiting on her to bring our waters. She didn't bring then out until AFTER our appetizers were out. read more

Horrible service very unfriendly. Food was okay but the waitress was unprofessional wanting to talk with coworkers more than wait on tables.

We had been driving all day from Oklahoma City and arrived at the hotel, and found that this restaurant was right across from the entrance to our hotel. The thought of getting back into the car to go somewhere to eat was not pleasant, so we decided to just go to the late happy hour here and get bar snacks instead since we weren't starving. What a great choice! Sarai was a very friendly server and took care of us quickly, and my wife, who had been doing most of the driving, ordered a Coors Light Brewtus to quench her thirst, and I joined her. I ordered my standard frozen margarita for the summer months, and we ordered fried green beans and pretzel rods with beer cheese. Both were just what we wanted, and my wife switched over to margaritas on the rocks and had two and I had another frozen one. Satisfied and full, we walked across the parking lot to our hotel and got a good night's sleep. read more

Be leary.....We ate here on Thanksgiving night 2015.... Correction, we tried to eat here but the food never came. We started off having drinks that were supposed to be top shelf 1800 tequila that arrived to us with just a splash of an amount on the shot glasses. The night was steady, but our service was HORRIBLE! We waited for forever for our drinks & just to be greeted. Our server seemed to be unorganized & scattered when it came to efficiency. When it came time for us to want to order food, the power went out due to uncontrollable issues and we were not able to eat/order anything. A good manager would've addressed the guests & the loss of power issue. But unfortunately we did not have a good manager on duty that night. We could have "dashed & dined" that night, but we decided to stick around to pay our tab to be honest guests. We left here very disappointed, hungry and our very "weak" alcohol buzz was even weaker... If I could give this place minus stars, I would. Very poor job management team and server!! Next time were in the area we will defintely dine elsewhere..... read more

Very disappointed in this location. Lettuce in salad would have been thrown at our house. Burger was over seasoned and bun was old and dry. Not sure if the pint glass of beer was a pint. Normally we like Applebee's and have always found the food consistent ...... Maybe they were having an off night. read more

Food was very plain. Service was sullen. Danielle E appeared only to welcome customers who know Applebee's, know what they want, and order promptly. I am in Applebee's perhaps every couple years. I was tired. I read the menu carefully. I ordered clearly and it was delivered in a reasonable time by other staffers. Each time she stopped by my table, Danielle revealed her disdain in her tone of voice. I had not seen Applebee's on table billing display. Danielle made no explanation other than to say she would be my cashier. I immediately handed her cash. She rapidly asked if I wanted the change. With no time to think, I said yes. She brought it including eleven pennies, but no receipt. Apparently the customer must ask for that. Danielle made it clear in her manner that I should know how it all works, so she does not have to explain. Danielle needs to learn how to welcome newcomers. read more

Had the 2 for $20. Was very good. Server said margaritas are at happy hour price. When we got the bill drinks were at full price. Server said he forgot the happy hour times. When we got our initial bill the charges were correct ( other than margaritas). When the server returned with our credit card so we could sign it, I noticed there was an additional $11 in charges. After waiting for a while I asked the server why the mistake? He said someone accidentally added other charges to our bill. This took another 10mins to fix. Summary food was good but you need to check the prices and make sure you are being billed correctly. Applebee's isn't watching out if they are over charging you for sure. read more

This Applebee's was a handy choice from my hotel. Ordered the Fiesta Chicken Salad. It was OK and the restaurant was clean. Expectations were no higher, so we're at 3-star rating. Giving this place four stars due to the 5-star incredible service at my table from Joshua. His attention to detail and his great attitude should be an example for anyone in a customer service sort of job. read more

Greeted and seated fast. Server didn't seem to happy. Took our drink order and didn't bring it back for another 10 minutes. Ordered food which took another 30 minutes. Burgers were good. Ordered wings and they were salty and dry. My grandmas soup didn't look to appetizing. The French onion soup looked chunky and the cheese looked awful. Otherwise I enjoyed the unlimited fries. read more

Great pace to stop in and have good food and drink. Prices are great also always a special going. Bartender is very nice to visit with.

Can't check in at the NEW Applebee's in Los Lunas! It is finally open and NOT crowded yet. Having lunch and a Bloody Mary. So nice to have a restaurant here other than another burrito stand! read more
