Bad service, bad food! Will never return to this specific location. Ever. Again! Food was over cooked. Waiter forgot my order and I'm still here waiting another 40 mins for it to cook while family is done with their over cooked food. Smh. read more

Hadn't been here in a while. Thanks for great service and wonderful food. I had the bourbon shrimp and chicken. Hubby had a burger. We ordered takeout and the two meals for $20.Great value and plenty of food. We will be back soon read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - I ordered a side of fries and this is how many I got?!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

My husband and I love coming here for date night. The fact that they're open late is wonderful since we often don't get to go out until after work. The bar drinks are very reasonably priced compared to similar establishments. Every time we get Yajaira she is amazing. She is very attentive and quick to ask if you need another beverage when she sees you getting low. The salsa here is garbage and when it comes to food we stick to the shrimp n Parmesan steak which is always good. read more

Terrible! Ordered on Grubhub a prime rib French dip, the meat was overcooked to uneatable almost burnt, no au jus , come on how difficult is it to get an order right when it's essential to the dish! It was not delivery cool, but ice cold like it sat for a while before pick up. The ribs were cold, onion rings and fries uneatable. We're months into take out and delivery orders plenty of time to adjust and do a decent job. Charged over $80.00 for the worst delivery we've had for months! No excuse for this other than this is why Applebee's is struggling. read more

Food was not bad. Service okay. Place smelled bad like smoke even though no smoking is allowed.

Im pissed the hell off. we came at 12am to get some appetizers. a server walked up to us and did not greet us, she just said "hi would yall like some drinks if nor you gotta leave the kitchen's closed," in a monotone and rude tone. how is the kitchen closed an hour before the restaurant closes? i work at texas roadhouse, and tonight we had to stay open and cook 30 minutes passed closed because some customer ordered at 10:05(we closed at 10). this is outrages!! how do yall expect to gain loyal customers if you're kicking people out when they walk in!?! never going back i suggest yall do the same. read more

We walked in and nobody greeted us for like 10 minutes. The manager finally came over and said it would be a 15 minute wait even though a lot of tables were not being used. Some of the tables that weren't being used were dirty and still had plates on them. We waited the 15 minutes and the manager said he had to clean off the table for us. I don't think he actually cleaned any of the tables, he just stuck us at a table that was already somewhat clean. The floors were sticky. The waitress we had took forever to take our order. She barely came by to check on us, maybe once or twice for our order and refills. She even took forever to come back to our table all in all. The wonton tacos were good. My boyfriend's chicken he ordered wasn't cooked right but everything else was alright. We didn't get good service and it took way longer than it should've to sit down, eat, and leave. There were a lot of workers just standing around and not working. This Applebee's needs to do better! read more

Zoinks, what a location... ordered a bacon whiskey burger, no tomatoes. I get tomatoes. And the burger was dry. I asked for "mashed potatoes--there's no bacon, right? Okay, sounds good then" And get brought/charged for 2 orders of mashed potatoes. Queso on the fries-- it's a teaspoon amount and the same price as a side of mashed potatoes! Steamed broccoli was not steamed but rather boiled for 10 minutes. I had a dirty spoon, and the waitress didn't come by, so I ate my soup with a fork. Hardly got checked on, and waitress was avoidant after we disputed our check. I feel bad, but man, they need to work on a lot at this location. Marietta location had us wanting more... now, never mind! read more

This place gets worse as the years go by. It's cramped, dumpy, and icky. The service is barely ok. The servers barely listen to you and they move like sloths. I've been there 3 times in the last 4 years because I keep forgetting how sticky and dirty I feel eating there. Not every Applebees is like this. I truly believe this location needs to remodel or to simply shut down. read more

Horrible horrible horrible! I sat myself because there was not a employee at the door or anywhere to be seen! After 15 mins of waiting we had still nit been greeted by anyone! We left! It was so quite and not inviting at all! I would not recommend my enemy to even eat hear! Please don't waste your time or money! read more

Save yourself the disappointment.... the food was beyond bad. I ordered the BBQ brisket taco and it was charred! On top of that the taco and fries tasted as if it were cooked in old grease... Furthermore, the service was extremely slow and it wasn't even a full house. The upside to this place is that Folks southern kitchen is across the street and you can just walk over there or drive and get you something better to eat. read more

See all

Horrible service !!! Need a zero star feature. Long wait. Stood at door for 5min. Before I had to walk to the bar and ask will someone seat or acknowledge us. Then finally the bar rep. Came over to seat us. 40 min wait at table for food after drink order. The waitress didn't even come by to refill our sodas . Should of went to Mc Donald's for this type of service. Disgusted!!! read more

If you are looking for a dive bar with lots of, shall we say local flavor, this is your spot. The food tasted microwaved, and the service was mediocre. I really want the server to tell me the specials if any , tale my order and fill my drink. I do not want commentary on how their life is I'm a shambles. I am sure this plays well with the aforementioned locals. Restaurant needs a full de- funkifying. Dingy non appetizing atmosphere. Will not go back. read more

Not usually one to review chain restaurants but my experience was here was so good I had to! Boyfriend has lived less than 5 minutes from this location for 6 months now but we have never gone because it never really appealed to either of us. Especially after reading some of the reviews for this location specifically. However, left with limited options for a late dinner on a Sunday night we figured we'd (tentatively) give it a try. What a pleasant Surprise! We arrived around 10:50 and were greeted within a minute. Ended up ordering mozzarella sticks (half price after 10),Mac and Cheese with chicken tenders and the sirloin with stout sauce and potatoes (off of the $10 taste the change menu). Everything was superb and arrived in a timely manner. We waited less than 5 minutes for the cheese sticks and had just enough time to let them settle before our entrees arrived. Boyfriend's Perfect Patron Margarita tasted perfect (although it had an olive in the bottom?-- my only complaint but it didn't affect taste) Our server Morietta was super on top of things and sweet! We plan to be back! read more

Now that I finally have a yelp account, I can review my favorite place to eat with friends. I've never really understood why people hate on Applebee's so much. Every time I have visited, the food and service have been decent. I'm not expecting a dining experience. I just want my cheap 2 for $20 deal with two entrees and an appetizer to share with my friend while we catch up on life. At this particular Applebee's, I've never had trouble with service. The place is almost always empty, so I love not having to wait to be seated or to get my microwaved appetizer. read more

The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. The food arrived rather quickly. I was eating on a weekday around 3pm; not many people there. I had the Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp. I enjoyed my meal. However, for some reason, Applebee's loves to cook their chicken until it is dry. But, it was tasty. I would recommend stopping by this location. read more

My best friend lives 5 mins from this location. I usually am always at the location on pleasant hill. which by the way is much better! My experience wasn't horrible here. The service was fast but that is because not alot of people were there, and I am so not used to that. I felt like "OMG what is this place". I have never been to a apple bees so empty. The server was new but she was very attentive and extremely friendly. She just didn't know much of the information. I always get my pasta without tomatoes and she said "oh we can't do that' Umm what do you mean you can't women! I have been getting the same thing for 1 1/2 year nobody has ever said "no we can't" but I wasn't mad I just think she was new and didn't know much. needless to say I think everything was good, clean. Fast. Friendly! The chicken penne is amazing as always and the boneless buffalo wings (extra wet) so good. Can't go wrong with wings! read more

Terrible experience. Several members of the staff were sitting at a table in the dining area talking loud and cursing. When I asked them to stop cursing, the waitress who kept dropping the "F" bomb told me she would say what she wanted to say. I told her my 10 year old was at the table. She said Oh I didn't know there was a kid, as if cursing in the the dining room loudly and carrying on like animals is acceptable for employees. Apparently at this establishment it is because the waiter came by the table, apologized on behalf of the waitress and comped the kid's meal. The manager apologized. They should have comped our whole check for this terrible experience. Poor service and the food was disgusting. I will never be back to this Applebee's! read more

Applebee's is a very good restaurant to eat at if you like casual food.However, it is not the best restaurant, most people do not prefer it. The service very good, they don't have you waiting that long if they don't have that many customers at the time that you come. The prices at this restaurant are decent they not too high and they not too low. It is an average restaurant based on its service, location, pricing, and menu. Sometimes, when I come here at Applebee's the line isn't that long, but other times my family and I can get seated once we get there. They don't have much seating on the inside, but they do have chairs outside for people to sit at while waiting. The host will seat you and your waiter will let you order your drinks, but sometimes they do run slow. The service here is very good when you go, unless you go when they are very busy then their service is crazy. When you come on the day that there very busy you will usually be waiting for 30-45 minutes because they're busy at the time that you came. On other days they not as busy as you can be seated usually once you get there. The waitresses are very nice, and they always make sure you have everything that you need to enjoy your meal. They always have smiles on their faces when they greet you. They have plenty of locations that you can find this restaurant, to see what it is and how they work. The location of the Applebee's is a good spot for them because they are not as close to any other restaurant. You can usually find Applebee's close to fast food restaurants. Applebee's is located in Lawrenceville not that far from Gwinnett Medical. It is right across from Chick-fil-a and Wendy's you should not miss it. The pricing at Applebee's isn't that high, but the prices aren't necessarily low either. The prices at Applebee's are descent. They always have the 2 for $20 where you and another person can order something off the list of choices that they give you. Sometimes they are expensive when you want something that is very popular. They do have variety of choices for you to choose from whatever prices you want to pay. The menu has variety of choices for you to eat and drink. You can get the good deals to eat or you can pay the full prices for the meal that you want. Some people get the 2 for $20 which isn't a bad deal for some people. The menu shows what they have new that is in the restaurant, and they show what is very popular that people are eating. The menu at Applebee's is very cool, but it also basic for people. In conclusion, Applebee's is a casual dining place for all ages. If you want to go somewhere the whole family can enjoy it than I'll suggest visiting here. The menu is good and the waiters are very nice. They will always help you out and they will make sure everything is fine. You will always see descent prices when you go to this restaurant; therefore, they not too cheap or too expensive. read more

People, do not get duped. This place is even worse than I remembered. We were enticed by the "All you can Eat" Riblets and chicken. When we arrived there were very few tables occupied. Appetizer and drinks came out quickly but had to be sent back. The chicken tenders were decent at best but don't plan to dip them in ranch. I've had better ranch at fast food restaurants. Some of our party ordered their riblets for the second round and after waiting for THIRTY minutes, we asked for our orders to be revised to the regular size. They were badly understaffed in both service and kitchen and the food was well below par. Total time in the restaurant was nearly TWO HOURS. I will NEVER go back. read more

I give this Applebee's an A+ for customer service. I forgot our servers name but she was such a sweetheart and made sure we left happy. But for the food. Not so much. I ordered the steak quesadillas and wings off the apps menu. The quesadillas were not even warm the steak inside it was tough and the wings were okay. My friends and i all had cold to room temperature food. We could definitely tell it wasn't fresh. Step up the quality of the food Applebee's! read more

0 stars if I could the service was so terrible that we never got I drink order what a bunch of losers servers walking around serving no one

The food was good and the help was attentive and friendly. The problem was the bar. There were so many people being loud and obnoxious at the bar that it was impossible for us to enjoy our meal. According to the server this has become a regular thing. The manager tried to get them to quiet down but ended up turning up the music instead which compounded the problem. I will try another Applebee's from now on. read more

Turn, run in the other direction!!! Taco Bell, KFC, even QT roller food would have been a better choice. Lousy service, cold food, you can actually HEAR the microwave going off in the kitchen. How hard is it to bring the kid his macaroni and cheese at the same time as the rest of the meal??? Had a $25 gift card (only reason we went), waitress couldn't bring the actual receipt after the card value was removed ‍. She came back and said the balance was "like forty something". Had to use the contraption on the table, which also had the bill for the table next to us. Place was NOT busy, maybe 6-7 tables and a handful of people at the bar. Asked for A1, got a jello shooter cup of Heinz 57. Now, I know it's Applebee's, not expecting a Michelin Star meal, but come on. NO NO NO. read more

This location is great!! Go see the daytime bartender that is there Tuesday - Friday . She is awesome

Server tonight was the worst, forgot my apps, showing his underwear, my wife's order was cold, my alfredo pasta dry,half my sons food was served, and my refill never came... Mark note the restaurant was not even half full , 5 tables at the most. read more

Such bad slow service. Servers are wandering around like idiots not willing to help tables. Never going to any applebees again

I came with my kids Monday night. Waited 40 mins. Restaurant doesn't seem busy. Just seem like a regular day. My kids got their food and now they are almost finished their food . I haven't got my food yet. This is ridiculous service ever. I am never coming back. I asked for manager, 20 mins ago and he or she still come and see me yet. read more

2 out of 3 plates had to be returned to the kitchen; 1 for under cooked chicken, the other for served cold - not like warm but COLD. The wait staff was very good. They need A LOT of work in the kitchen department. New cooks would be a great start. read more

Visited this Applebee's for lunch today. We were one of about five guests in the restaurant and the service was extremely slow. Waited for food a long time. Maybe this is why the restaurant is empty? read more

Love Applebee's. Plenty of variety in food choices. The food is always delicious. Server Penny is a delight. We always ask for her. Only negative is the fact that the booths need to be refurbished. read more

Worst service ever! After being seated no one came up to ask us what we would like to drink and order. At first after 5 mins we cut them a little slack because it was a little busy, but after 15 mins no one still didn't take our order or gave us drinks. The waiter just kept passing our table and served other guests that came in way after us. After telling the hostess about the problem she then went to talk to our waiter and the waiter still continued to walk pass our table without giving us any sort of acknowledgment or took any of our orders. We then walked out and went to Chili's down the road which gave us way better service. Truly unacceptable and I will never come back! read more

This location is great when we want to grab something late. As long as we take the order home we're good, the late night atmosphere is straight ghetto! The atmosphere becomes more club like with music that says... bitch this bitch that! Such a shame considering it's so close to home. read more

I ordered 2 - 2 for $22's for in store pick up. After placing my order I was called on the way there to be told they no longer serve sweet chili wings...even though it was on their updated "virus menu". I get up there, they're not busy at all. My order was made 20 minutes AFTER it was supposed to be ready. They also screwed me on celery on both orders of wings. I made the mistake of ignoring the crap reviews. I won't go back here ever again. read more

I have to say I have experienced better. The reason I gave this restaurant two stars was for the atmosphere. I went on Friday night when they have Karaoke. It was a great time. The guy who runs the show was awesome. If you want to have a good time with your friends go on Friday night from 10 to 2 am. The food and service on the other hand, giant disappointment! The service the worst I have ever experienced. I could never find my waiter. It took 20 minutes to get a drink from the bar. I could have just easily walked up to the bar myself and gotten the drink quicker. I had to ask the manager to send my waiter out to order something else off the menu. You would think the manager would apologize and say something, but he just sent our waiter out. I am not sure if the problem was management, but this Applebee's was way below par. I will return just because of the Karaoke. This time I will eat before I go to this restaurant. read more

Crystal our waitress told us "if it's not hot, it's not my fault". Also, told us to tell her if we stay after 10 so she can transfer us since her shift ends. Safe to say, the service here sucks. It's in a crappy area, and the beer even tastes weird. Why am I here??? AVOID. read more

Wanted a nice sit down meal before heading into working a night shift, I had an hour so plenty of time. I sat at a table near the bar, waiters and waitresses just walking by, had a menu just dropped on table, finally one stops by to take order, after sitting for 30 minutes no water, no drink no silverware I walked out. Never have I been ignored so badly read more

This place is sooo ass, service was bad. I literally got my entree before my appetizer. And when I got it, it wasn't even the full appetizer, they forgot part of it. The managers came right after the appetizer was handed down. and asked to refill my cup. I said yes and he said okay will do and proceeded to walk to the bar and talk to the waitress, I finished my appetizer and he was still talking to her, i had to ask another waiter for a refill, because my original waitress never came back. The service here is bad and the food is barely mediocre. It used to be a better place, now it's completely bad. read more

The service at this Applebee's is terrible. After a long day of work, I came to have a couple of cocktails and something to eat ..I walked in and waited a few minutes for someone to greet & seat me, once the waiter (Anne) finally came, she stepped right over me to seat a couple that walked in after me. She then sat me at a table and served me my drink 30 mins ago and never came back to take my food order nor to see if I was ok. There was only about 6 customers in the buiIding at the time. I ended up having to switch waiters. Iyana tried to make sure I was pleased, but I was already over it and had to leave. Iyana was nice and very pleasant. read more
