I've been here a few times since my dad bought a house down in NC and it's a nice place. The food is good and the drinks are cold. It's a chain and they have it down. I think one of the main reasons this place is so popular is because it's one of perhaps 5 restaurants in the area. I'd love to see the area expand a bit with all the new housing but for now, this place will do just fine. read more

Great experience! Was met by a smiling hostess that opened the door for me. Food was good. Bartender was best ever, her name was Ally. When I left, manager CJ thanked me for coming and hostess made sure to get the door for me on the way out. Felt like I was at 5 star restaurant read more

We went here for lunch while on vacation on 8/9/15. We were extremely impressed with our waiter, he was the best, even my three teenagers noticed!! He was so attentive, professional and just overall awesome. I wish I could remember his name! My girls ordered frozen lemonaid drinks and didn't like them. He removed from our bill and brought them sodas no problem. The onion rings were so good we ordered twice. I did the pick two appetizers & had the spinach & artichoke dip/moz sticks both great. My daughters had the bourbon street chicken & shrimp and the quesadillas. My son had the 7oz house sirloin with fries. We all really enjoyed our food, no complaints. read more

Consistent experience each time, food is hot and taste good, service is attentive whether at table or bar top (bartenders are really fun), seems during every visit management stops by to not only ensure food and drinks are good but make sure entire experience and day is going well! read more

Service not good. Waitress clueless. Salad looked good in menu picture but didn't come to us the same way. Supposed to have chimichurri on the steak but had to ask for it after getting salad. What we got wasn't chimichurri. Not even sure what it was. Won't be back read more

The staff was great. The food wasn't terrible but it wasn't anything I'd write home about. We had to send the ribs back because they were undercooked. We were refunded our money immediately. read more

We tried to call and place an order to no avail. We ordered online and the order was incomplete when we got it home. Tried to call and no answer. When we picked up to go the phone was ringing off the hook and no one was answering. Thanks for the great customer service and for putting all of our good in the bag. read more

Dint have any dam bud light there. can't get your food right. give it a year it will be a car wash like all the other runs that close down. the service was slow as crap read more

I am only leaving a one star review bc I have too, otherwise it would be zero. This was honestly the worst experience we have ever had in a restaurant. Ever. The hostess seemed to have trouble seating a family of five in a somewhat empty restaurant. Tens mins we sat without being acknowledged or given menus. Finally noticed, we were given two menus. We then took turns passing them around to see what we wanted. We waited 15 minutes for drinks to be delivered. My bar drink sat so long at the bar waiting to be brought to me that the red white and blue frozen drink was a purple snow cone by the time I received it. Appetizer was brought out. Cold. Zero extra plates to share with. Zero napkins. Zero utensils. Finally given a handful of napkins and a handful of silverware. Not wrapped. We still had to place our food on napkins to share. We ordered our food... and waited. And waited. 45 mins pass and our server tells us the second part of the appetizer and our salad will be right out. He doesn't understand what's taking so long. An hour passes and our remaining appetizer arrives. Along with the salad. Right behind it our food comes, which is delivered by the manager. At this point we speak to the manager about the wait time. She apologizes and comps the apps. Which we appreciate. However things did not improve. The adult chicken tender is the exact same size and appearance as the chicken tender plate from the kids menu. No sauces. Approx 10-12 fries on each of our plates. Our server brings out the sauce at my request, spilling over the top of the container and running down the sides, he hands it to me. Both my hands are now holding containers of honey mustard, running down my hands and wrists onto the tables. He walks off. no napkins anywhere. I stand up, walk to the hostess and ask for napkins. Still covered in sauce. She never even looks at me and states she will bring it over. So I sit down. Still covered in sauce. At this point I'm furious. My husband has to go to the bar tender to get napkins for me. Our server continues to walk by us repeatedly. No attempt to fix or help with anything. Our food was sloppy and left half uneaten. What makes this entire event worse, is that around me I can hear the hostess apologizing for wrong or incorrect food etc. what was suppose to be a fun dinner with family on the 4th, turned into a disaster and a mom on the verge of tears and a dad furious. Not to mention we missed the fireworks because of our wait. Two hours later we left your restaurant unhappy and still hungry. We planned on a fun dinner of appetizers, drinks and desserts that would have cost over $100 that ended up costing us zero bc of your lack of care. So disappointed. read more

This store has great food. I go there about every night. They have awesome boneless wings and mozzarella sticks. They have good burgers as well. The staff are always professional and friendly. Since i am a regular, they let me sit wherever i want. They never let me run out of water and always check up with me to see if i need anything. read more

Service was great. Games were on. Food was delicious. Steak was cooked exactly as I asked. Not a compliant.

Oh my, I just love this place! Came here on a saturday with my husband while were riding the east coast on his hog. I will tell you the pretty young girl at the bar is something else. I have never seen such a warm smile. The food was great and the conversation with that pleasent young woman was even better. read more

Came in this evening with a friend and had awesome food and really enjoyed our server, Kassidy! Her bright smile and her great personality made us enjoy our visit! Thanks to her, we will be back. read more

Went yesterday for an early dinner. Took at least 5 minutes before a server came to seat us. Place was not busy at all, 4 maybe 5 tables tops. Server was nice and took our order but we waited almost an hour before we got our food. No idea what took so long but food definitely was not worth the wait. The 4 cheese mac and cheese was horrible. Not sure why the changed it (If they did. That's what the server said) but not good at all. Steak was bland and over cooked. Would have sent it all back but was scared it would be another hour to get something else. Will not go back to this location. Worst experience I've had at an Applebee's. read more

Slow service, dissatisfied with the food I ordered, and the waiter kept walking by my table and never gave me a refill on my drink

Had a great burger. I would recommend the Triple Bacon Burger to my friends. It's a large burger and yet not too messy to eat. Plenty of bacon on this one with the flavor of bbq sauce. Really good taste together. Only down side was our server was a little messy with his dirty apron. Service was good though just not appealing to the eye. read more

Food took awhile and the hosting staff was not very polite. Won't be back for awhile.. did appreciate our server. Very kind, a little to honest. read more

changed the menu for the worst. Less items but higher prices.

Some things are really good here. Unfortunately we have been here twice within a few weeks of each other and they are consistently undercooking the food. Last time I ordered a steak medium well. When I cut into it, it was medium at best. Today I got a burger to go, asked for no pink, it was pink and I have provided both pictures here. I won't be back to Applebee's in this area, especially for to go orders, it takes us 30 minutes to get there and I'm not about to drive all the way back for an incorrectly cooked dish. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Asked for NO PINK, this is what I received. - Sports Bars Near Me - Leland, North Carolina

See all

I will never eat there again. Service very poor and the food was not all that. Then was told they were out of pasta which they were out of cooked pasta. But the table behind me had also wanted pasta they came out and told them that they had it and they could get it I had to call someone over to get mine changed. Then we had to wait a little longer for it, But they came out and gave the table behind me theirs free because they had to wait and I waited and did not get anything. Brought out the appitizer without any plates to eat it on. Just over all bad ordeal. read more

Ordered a basic Classic Hamburger - it was cooked correctly, but tasted of old grease. Service was terrible; the hostess had to find our server just to take our order. The restaurant was not busy; that should have been my first clue. read more

This restaurant does no do steaks well at all. Both my husband and I did the 2 for 20 and the steaks were under cooked and mostly grissle.

Haven't been to this Applebee's in a while , my server was great! I can't remember her name but she had red hair and was on top of everything ! Got the 2 for $20 deal and the food was hot the three cheese cavatappi was really delicious. Really great experience read more

Hardly any food on the plate. Did not have several items listed on the menu. This is the second time Ive been given the excuse that they are out of that food! Poor management. read more

Was good food. Good service. They did get rid of sauce that goes with Fried green beans. Sara was good hostess.

I had hair in my Mesquite Chicken Dinner. I notified the manager and he just offered to take 10% off of my bill. The hairs were in between the cheese and the chicken breast, needless to say I did not let my 4 children continue eating their meals that I had to pay for (including mine) out of fear (based on their reaction like this is normal) that their food is probably contaminated as well. I just relocated from NY where Applebee's have actual standards. YUCK! Poor management, staff, and food!!! read more

Only because of the waitress will this review receive two stars. Based on numerous trips in the last couple of months, this place is lacking. Drinks were wrong, remade and no liquor was poured, made again and still the wrong drink provided. Another 30 minutes gone and when drinks did arrive, they were watered down and just blah. Appetizers arrived with wrong order and two were cold. Cancelled the remained of dinner and just left. Waitress was amazing as compared to others noticed. All looked miserable except ours. read more
