Me and a buddy stopped in after work tonight and both ordered a soda and the $15.99 all you can eat shrimp/boneless wings/riblets. The waiter was clearly in a poor mood and seemed frustrated to be there. After taking our order, our waiter did not come back to check on us again unless we specifically called his attention to us, which I finally did after almost thirty minutes. I asked how much longer our FIRST plate of the all you can eat deal would be out. The waiter disappeared again and left the empty cups without offering a refill. Five minutes later the food comes out, I had started with fried shrimp and my friend with garlic Parmesan boneless wings. The waiter asked "can I get you some extra napkins or extra silverware?" despite having not given us napkins or silverware to start with. We asked for silverware and he left, once again leaving empty cups. My first bite was met with a lukewarm breading and a patch of ice cold shrimp in the center. My friends garlic Parmesan wings had miraculously been replaced by buffalo. I tried another shrimp and found it to be just above room temperature. We both decided to eat what was in front of us due to having an hour drive home each and not wanting to wait another 30 minutes. The manager saw that we didn't appear satisfied and came by to tell us that she had discounted the meal to account for the issue. The manager and waiter both walked away, AGAIN leaving empty drink cups. Abandoning any hope of my waiter or the manager making the bare minimum effort to simply refill our drinks, I walked the empty cups to the bar to get my own refills. I asked for the check and the waiter brought it to me along with the correct wings for my friends order in a to-go box, which is the closest thing to customer service we got that night. I opened the check to find a $5 discount on our $41 ticket. I already had my card out but the waiter immediately walked away. Ten minutes later he returned with the receipts. I had to flag him down AGAIN to get a pen to sign the receipts. Ultimately, the staff at this location all appear frustrated and angry just being there, and it shows in their actions and their words. During our visit I overheard staff members half-heartedly apologize to every table around us, whether it be the wait time, cold food, or an order being wrong (I guess we just hit the trifecta). The service at this restaurant is non-existent, the quality is standards are lower than a RaceTrac pizza. If you are looking for a decent meal, go across the street to the QuikTrip gas station and see what you can find in the trash can. You'll get a better meal, and infinitely better service. read more

They have black mold in the HVAC vents. Started feeling light headed after dinner. The food had a fried hair in it. I will NEVER go back. Disgusting. read more

Have been here in years. Came at 10pm for half off apps. Apps tasted below average. Portion sizes were decent. Ordered watermelon margaritas for the table- it tasted like juice. Too much sugar and liquor was almost nonexistent. read more

My husband and I wanted to grab a quick bite. We walked in and It was a slow paced Saturday night. We were seated fast and our waitress took a few minutes to get to us. We waited 48 minutes for appetizers. Appetizers y'all. We understand food service takes long but that's just crazy. On a night that isn't busy. Our salsa wasn't on the plate either. This rating isn't so much for our server (She only checked on us once but we're low maintenance) but more for the kitchen staff and lukewarm food. Will we be coming back? Nah. read more

Went in at 515pm on a Sunday, no-one to greet so we grabbed a hi top at the bar. This is what we witnessed during the 1.5 hours we were there. Bartender who seemed to be a manager eating while standing behind the bar with customers at the bar A table full of dirty glasses and silverware and another table with a bus tub full of dirty dishes A waitress that seemed to be high on something yelling across the dining room whenever someone walked in We had to ask for our table to be cleaned off and the waitress grabbed some napkins to wipe it off (no sanitizer used) Had to flag our waitress several times as she was too busy chatting with a guy who seemed to be there to see her We have given this location several chances and unfortunately we will not be back. read more

Food is good! Ambiance is nice for an Applebees but what makes the trip here worth it is Jessie! She was fantastic and made the dinner amazing! read more

Ok, if all Applebee's were operated by this crew and had the same hospitality, service and great food prepared to perfection then the chain wouldn't be closing any stores. I live in Nashville and several Applebee's closed there due to various problems. This location in Georgia is top tier. Highly recommended. read more

We ordered to go. If I could give 0 stars I would. Absolutely disgusting food. All of our food tasted like it was 3 days old. Tough and dry. The cooks clearly can't read because 3 out of 4 of our meals were wrong. My daughter ordered a steak rare and it came medium. My other daughter ordered the pub fries minus parsley, bacon and ranch. Came with all 3. I ordered the Bourbon Chicken and Shrimp and didn't even get that. I got a grilled chicken breast. Like...what the hell? We just spent $70 for absolute garbage. We just moved here and we'll never eat at this Applebee's again. read more

It had been a while since we ate there and the last time the food was good. This time it was horrible!!!! the waitress couldn't care less, she bought out our appetizers and no plates, we had to use napkins to put the onion rings on. I ordered a strawberry margarita that was the color of water, tasted horrible, I can't even begin to describe the taste. The food was disgusting-the chicken or was it a hockey puck, It was so hard I couldn't tell what I was trying to cut into and the spaghetti not cooked-how can you botch spaghetti. The food that my husband ordered wasn't any better, his steak was hard and flavorless. for $50 I expected better food and better service. and it was a Thursday night, no one there so it wasn't like we had to wait. We will never set foot in there again. read more

It's been a few years since we've dined here. The service during our visit deserved 5 stars. Our waitress was on top of everything. Our drinks were full and all our food arrived at the same time. read more

If I could give a negative score, I would. The hostesses had us waiting 10mins with no greeting or acknowledgment. Once we asked her to seat us she sighed and gave us attitude so we asked for her manager. (Mind you we are NOT the type to ever complain). Once we were seated by the manager who honestly didn't give a fuck about anything we were saying, the waitress was super nice and we loved her. But unfortunately once our food came out and we took a few bites we noticed and big and had to leave. This was the worse experience at Applebees we've ever had and we won't be coming back to this location. read more

Ordered curbside to-go through the app, which was convenient for placing the order. However, the curbside pickup parking was confusing, and the food wasn't ready at the scheduled time. Waited five extra minutes before we gave up and went inside to grab it ourselves. The food was just okay--honestly, for the prices, it should've been much better. Mixed bag overall. read more

The food and ambience can improve a lot. I've never been to an Applebees with absolutely no flavor. The steak and burger lacked flavor and the fries were not even fresh. The only good thing was our server. She was very nice. read more

The service and the food were horrible. After this experience we won't ever go to any Applebees again. read more

I wish my husband was more of a foodie. He's too boring and simple, only to venture as far as same types of food and new city. Applebee's is not very vegetarian friendly. Forget vegan friendly. The restaurant smell like old laundry while walking in. They didn't dry the towels and let it sit or something. I just got the caesar salad, okay, not the best. I wish they had a veggie platter where I could pick 3-4 sides. Nope. The caesar salad was a chicken one and asked them to put the chicken on the side and give to hubby to eat instead. The lemonade drinks were too sweet and very artificial tasting. 71/2021 read more

S L O W ! They need someone to get this place into shape. Tonight we saw several employees standing around while customers were waiting to be sat, waiting on their checks, and waiting for their food. My husband waited 20 minutes for a beer. Ive been staring at my 3 children's empty cups for the last 30 minutes. At several points during or visit there wasn't a single employee on the floor. I feel sorry for whoever owns the place.... Our food came out after an hour - 2 of the 5 meals were wrong. Disappointed is not the word. read more

You literally have two bartenders on early Friday night and wait for a beer at the bar 6 minutes. Then can't get a cold glass because their to busy in the back. Still don't understand how this Applebee's neeeds 2 on one night and still their out of site for 10 minutes. Both. We timed them. Wow read more

We (tried to have)the all you can eat promotional meal. Well the server was forgetful, and seemed way too overwhelmed, we got one plate of food each, and then nothing for 20 min, turned out she took our food to another table, so we got to wait more time. We finally just asked for our check and the manager. She at first gave a song and dance saying she was going to charge us for the two plates while taking our sons meal off. We said not good enough, so they discounted it further. Frozen food re-heated, poor service and annoying dingbat laughter when she screwed our order up. This is twice that we have had a bad experience at this location. Lesson learned, won't eat at this one again, if any of their locations since they put no effort into hiring decent servers. read more

If I could post negative stars I would. I ordered the $21 sirloin and I have to say that was the worst piece of meat I have ever had the displeasure of trying to eat. It was overcooked and not a single bite was without grisle. It was nasty and disgusting. This used to be my go to... not anymore! read more

Hideous chicken, broccoli and alfredo dinner that I sent back to kitchen. I noticed a stench like death, and I didn't know where it was coming from until I smelled the chicken. It smelled like rotted meat. My husband worked at a meat processing plant in VA, and he said the chicken smelled like the dead cows. I had the waitress, Saniyah, smell it. And I told her I couldn't eat the dinner. So, she took it back to the kitchen and had them make me a cheeseburger instead which I had to take to go since we had been there forever. With burgers for my husband, daughter & me, 2 glasses of wine, and tea, plus $16 tip, the total came to almost $95. But even today I cannot get the memory out of my brain of the complete stench of that chicken. I tried to order another chicken dish w/shrimp, and she said I wouldn't like that either because the same chicken is used. I was wondering if I should call the health dept. re: the chicken. It's terrifying. I will NEVER, EVER eat at Applebee's again in any state! Absolutely disgusting! read more

On National Cheeseburger Day, which was September 18th, we stopped by this location for burgers and fries. We were seated quickly and the waitress was prompt in taking our orders. The burgers arrived and looked great. The burgers tasted much better than the last ones we ordered at this location. As far as the fries... well they were not hot and did not taste fresh. It was as if they were cooked earlier and had been sitting in the kitchen for awhile waiting to be plated on the next order.... whenever that happened. My beer was cold. By the way I had to go to the waitress station to get silverware since the waitress did not provide us with eating utensils. Plenty of free parking at the door. We probably will return but this is not a "destination restaurant" we would seek out just a place to grab a quick bite. read more

We had an awesome meal and Alyssa was an awesome server. We couldn't have asked for anything better!

Great food good atmosphere and fast service. Personally I don't understand why others have rated it so low.

I don't give 5 stars lightly, but Applebee's in Bethlehem restored my faith in trying and making change where it is imperative. I watched the Athens Applebees's spiral down for two years. It was a disgrace by the time it closed; tainting childhood memories of good times with my dad. AND I was really missing the Four cheese mac with honey pepper chicken fingers. Last night I found Applebee's reborn. From the oriental salad dressing to the mashed potatoes, every bit of the meal was prepared with care. My date and I each had Long Island Iced Teas. We chose the 2 for $29. He opted for the 8oz sirloin and I being a creature of habit got my usual. Everything was better than it needed to be. Our bartender/server Kristen never stopped moving. She made drinks for the whole place and still managed to keep us taken care of. Even at less than full capacity (Covid related), the place had a good time atmosphere. I can't speak for the other diners or on the quality of the other servers, but we left with smiles on our faces. We shall return. read more

Waited 25 minutes for the girl to come to the table to say the kitchen was closed, they were only doing drink orders. Should have told us that when we walked in. Glad I don't live in this town. Would never come back here read more

We came in and wanted a different table than the one the GM wanted us to take, so he made us wait 10 minutes before he seated us at a table all ready prepared. Not good!!!! We'll see about the food. The lime chicken was good, the Mac and cheese, soso read more

Saddest, most tasteless burnt turd bacon burger I've ever eaten. HORRIBLE food. HORRRRIBLE. And we only ate here today to spend the gift card we got from the last time we ate here and the food was hilariously inadequate. Chicken fingers are frozen Tyson turds from the grocery freezer. This doesn't even pass for bad bar food. It's borderline inedible. GTFOH with this garbo. read more

We went on Father's Day 2021. We were being waited on at a table by the bartender. She came to our table maybe 4 times. She didn't write anything down when we ordered. Didn't ask how we wanted our burgers done, what kind of sauce with our chicken or what kind of dressing with our salads. I sat without a drink for 20 minutes before she came by to refill it. She said, "coke?" I said "Pib." She of course brought me a coke. I was over charged for my plate. I asked to not be served the platter version. I was given the plate version of my meal but charged for the platter...maybe if she took our order like a professional she'd have gotten that right. She seemed to be too interested in the man who came to the bar just to hit on her. Over all, garbage food and garbage service. Happy Father's Day to me. I just wasted $60 read more

Below nursing home food. After ordering our food and waiting 35 minutes our server told us our food was almost ready. Then we were told they were out of what we ordered by the manager who said she recommended something different and we were "welcome" for her providing that recommendation. We were nice and agreed to change the order to what was available. The food was below nursing home quality. The mac'n'cheese was overcooked penne with some sauce, a little cheese and some bacon. I know good food and this was the foulest thing I've ever seen. I walked past another table who had the pasta also placed on the edge of the table refusing to eat it. Moral: the manager gave us a break on the check, but what we paid still does not equate to the nasty food and poor experience. DO NOT eat at this restaurant read more

Second time attending this restaurant with my wife, both times extremely worth it. Today's server is Molly and she is great! Attentive and on point during the meal. Highly recommend and will be coming here more read more

The food took forever to come and are server family had came and was just screaming it was loud and terrible my drink was also water down

Worst service ever. Go to McDonalds across the street for better service. Also, out of silverware so they are using plastic utensils. Kept getting our margarita order messed up. Had to wait forever for salad dressing. Our meal was basically cold. We won't be coming here again. read more

Walked in on a Friday night around 11pm (doesn't close until 1am). Probably 4-5 people dining in. My group of 3 waited 30 minutes trying to flag down servers or anyone really, trying to get seated. Ended up giving up and placing a to go order online. Manager was extremely rude as well. The food here isn't that good to be having this bad of service. read more

Bad experience. Took my mother in law out to dinner for her birthday. Slowwwww service. It took close to two hours. We were sat in the lounge. The bar tender was more interested in her bar and other tables than us. We were conetely ignored. We ordered 1st round of dri ks whoch came fairly quickly but soon ended. She never came to check on us. We had to flag her down for 2nd round and appetiEr. We told her we would be ready to order in just a minute she never came back for another 45 minutes. We eventually had to flag someone else down to take our order and she came and took our order then we had to find someone else to check on our meal it's on our meal. It took us Close to 2 hours to get 3 meals 1 amphetizer and 3 drinks. Meal was good but too little to late. Will not be coming back read more
