Easily in the top five of the best Applebee's I've ever been to. Prompt service, friendly upbeat staff, a location that decorates for the holidays, and awesome bartenders. One of the few Applebee's I have been to that actually delivers to the car instead of assuming that "car-side-to-go" would just come to the bar. They ask on to-go orders if they want it delivered to the car or if they would like to pick it up at the bar. Before coming to this location I realized that every other location I have been to has dropped the ball on this particular amenitie. Having visited 15+ Applebee's in several states this staff and their management has done, and continues to do, an amazing job. Did I mention the amazing bartenders? read more

We were here last night. When we were seated we realized that the table felt sticky. When we asked to have it wiped off a bus boy who was on his phone came over and quickly wiped over the table. When he was done the table was still sticky and we realized that we could scrape old gunk off the top. It looked like deep cleaning was never ever done. The food was ok. The only bright spot was our server. We are never going back. read more

Ordered from this Applebees a 2 for 25. When my order arrives I am missing an entire entree and my PREGNANT WIFES steak that we ordered medium rare is BLUE!!! Horrible service and would never recommend this place to anyone! Shameful! read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - The "medium rare" steak, according to your chefs. - Sports Bars Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

tables sticky and not clean, holes in the booth seat, table is no where near fat friendly, steak over cooked, out of multiple ingredient, never brought my drink, flys everywhere read more

Service was slow and I was charged for an extra drink I never received. Food was just ok. Will rethink ever returning

Walking in the hostess welcomed my party in. To be a Saturday night it was not busy at all. The restaurant was decent. For it to be not really busy, it took 40 mins just to bring out our drinks after we ordered them. The food took another 30 mins after the drinks came out. Food was good, no complaints on that. Our waitress was nice. I would give the whole experience a 8/10 read more

I ordered a ultimate trio. My tacos had NOTHING IN THEM, just shells. My sauced nuggets were cold and had almost no sauce. No celery. There were 7 fries which were cold and soggy. When I called to get a refund, they forgot to mute and were cursing and not paying any attention to the problem. read more

I am highly satisfied with the service every individual was very friendly and welcoming. The bartender Wendy gave me a splendid service the food was top tier and the drinks were amazing each sip tasted like heaven she is definitely a great and hard working person I enjoyed my stay and will come again. The environment was very clean and organized as well. read more

After finding a table, we were asked to move because the dining room was closed. There were only about 5 tables being occupied on a Thursday night at 4:30? that should have been our first sign of what was to come. Wings were dried almost like they were reheated, and the double burger was disgusting. An old bun, cheese folded in half and no homemade garlic mayo, but they didn't forget the brown lettuce. Applebee's has always been consistent with food service and consistency in cooking. This Applebee's off of Maham was absolutely terrible! We did complain to the waiter, but he was at a loss for words. His service was also below expectation. read more

I don't even know what to say they lied so service 0 and said a bad word in front of my 9 year old daughter and the food was okay I guess but I honestly don't don't think I will come again read more

Steaks were either undercooked or overcooked and tough. Was charged for two sides when my steak came with two sides. Server was friendly and rectified my undercooked steak. Husband didn't want to wait for his remake. Teach cooks how to grill stks! Shouldn't have to wait for a redo order. read more

So we walked into the resturant and it was packed. We got sat down quickly then ordered a appetizer that took over 10 minutes to get to the table then we ordered my food and my mother asked for mashed potatoes and she got fries, it also took 45 minutes. Over all this is the worst Applebees I've ever been to read more

Came here to celebrate one of my sisters new position and it never fails we always have a horrible experience. We had high hopes because we haven't been to this location. Our server was over worked and our food took hours to come out. Our drinks looked nice but were full of juice. Since everything took so long to come to our table we just took it all to go.

First time to dine in here. Nice ambience. Ordered spinach artichoke dip which was average at best. Won ton tacos were excellent. The big turn off was having to use plastic cutlery. Ugh. I'll stick to take out. read more

Service was the worst ive ever seen, 15 mins to get seated, once seated . It was 30 mins at least to get our order taken . Or even a drink.. when the girl with worst attitude finally was making our drinks she was slaming bottles throwing thing piss poor attitude. Awful. And this happened last time we went to this location. We gave yall a second chance and this place failed once agian. Thsnks for ruining our night . Worst place ever. Atmosphäre was gloomy and depressing. I wouöd give it no stars read more

THEY HAVE ROACHES!!!! I was calm about the situation and didn't cause a scene. But I'm leaving a review due to the lack of response or concern from management. I was told I'd get a call the next day. Not! Submitted a concern to corporate and that's when the manager reached out. She went on about how she got the place clean from top to bottom and that my submission even made her pass an inspection that happened right after. I told her it was traumatizing to have almost eaten a roach and that a Applebees gift card serves me no purpose!! I literally won't use it. Suggested another type. Said she'd get back to me, NOT!! It's been weeks and haven't heard a word since! She just needed to make the phone call due to corporate I'm sure. Be careful and inspect your food before eating it!!! Being nice and calm gets you nothing or nowhere clearly! read more

Decent meal with my parents. Service lacking. I enjoyed my unlimited boneless wings. I tried the garlic-parmesan on my first offering. There was not much flavoring at all. My second offering was just plain boneless wings that I dipped in ranch. Wings were good. Fried to perfection. The meal came with fries and coleslaw. Fries were not that good. My father got the Asian chili flavored wings, and he thought it was spicier than he anticipated. Mom got plain wings. Overall the food was good. Service was not good. Our waitress took forever to bring us refills. She also was scarce in checking on us. The restaurant was not busy at all. read more

We ordered the 2 for $28 and each ordered the steak with potatoes and broccoli. The broccoli was superb, green, warm and just past crisp. The potatoes were filling and tasty when I added butter. The steak... well, one was larger than the other and had a lot of gristle the other was ok, both were a little tough and chewy. The restaurant was sparsely populated and service was a tad slow. This was not a bad meal, but I don't feel pulled to return read more

Would give this place a zero if I could. Tried twice now for lunch and both times stood for 15 minutes to be ignored before walking out to go elsewhere. Management need to get it together before this places closes its door permanently. read more

Cleanliness and customer service as a whole!! Since I've seen bugs in their food, I haven't been back since. And that was 3 years ago!!

This place made me and my family sick, with just bad food The service was ok Ambiance was whatever read more

Had lunch yesterday. The man at the door was wearing a hoodie - hood up - but no mask. Server was pleasant and friendly, however our server and rest of the staff spent most of their time in the kitchen laughing and loudly goofing off, ignoring the customers. Even when our "call server" button was pushed it was ignored. The food was tasty and hot, no complaints about it, but the service was poor. There were only about 6 tables of customers so you would expect more attention. The only time I saw a manager was when the tv channel was being changed... We went there because of an ad "two for $20". Menu deals started at two for $22, no mention of $20. Guess I should have asked why but did not. Don't think we will return. read more

So, this Applebee's has went down over the years. When it first opened my husband and I enjoyed coming because it was off the beaten path, relatively quiet and quick service. Recently, the waits are long, promotions are lackluster and we have come less and less because of it. My most recent visit was just OK. Our server seemed to be in a mood, we think because she was the only person staffed to run the bar and surrounding high tops which we sat at. She seemed unwilling to have my questions answered about the new smothered fajita dish I came specifically to try. When I told her this practically having to beg to get the answers I desired she reluctantly went to the kitchen and to my delight indicated they could provide a less spicier version of the dish. Now I'm not a big fajita person but I enjoyed my meal. I will say there was not nearly enough quest on it to warrant paying an extra dollar for "smothered" protein. But overall the food was hot and fresh. I also tried the $1 vodka raspberry lemonade. For $1 you get what you pay for in that regard although some of their other discounted cocktails I have enjoyed very much. It'll probably be a while before I go back, but if you're in search of a sit down meal you could do worse than to try this Applebee's. read more

This location is pathetic. They are always empty but have a 30+min waiting time to be seated. We went tonight to be told 40min with only two tables full in the entire restaurant. We took our business elsewhere. Obviously they don't care. read more

Got to the restaurant just before 10pm, open until midnight. Great. Seated within a minute or two and then...nothing. crickets. Never saw a server, the bartender was not in attendance at the bar. There were other patrons in the establishment. Could hear a lot of activity in the back but never saw a single person come out.There was no one to flag down to ask. Finally after almost 20 min of being seated I gave up and left. This place used to be good. read more

Literally the worst dining experience, came to Tallahassee from California to move my son into Florida State. Picked this Applebee's after a late night of getting him situated, walked in and sat down and the table was dirty and sticky, waitress apologized and wiped it down. Started by ordering drinks and the appetizers - the sampler & pretzel. Then ordered the rib dinner, chicken tender dinner and Oriental Chicken Salad. 20 minutes later they brought our drinks, 35 minutes after we placed our order still had not received appetizers. Waitress cam out and said she just found out they were out pretzels, still hadn't gotten drinks. When she finally brought the drinks out, the wine glass was clearly covered in lipstick marks, the second glass came was brought to the table the same way. Now more than 40 minutes after placing our order, the waitress comes out and says we are out of ribs, do you want to order something else and declined to order anything else. Dinner is finally brought out minus the ribs, had not gotten any silverware, so asked the waitress, she then brought out plastic silverware. When asked, she said "yeah we just haven't had time to wash the regular silverware yet." The Oriental Chicken Salad that was brought out wasn't even the right order and the chicken wasn't even cooked. Didn't say anything, just asked for the check and left. This is literally one of the worst restaurants I have been to, can't believe there is no corporate oversight because from observation this wasn't a single issue. IF YOU ARE COMING FROM OUT-OF-TOWN AND THINKING YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A DECENT EXOERIENCE AT A CHSIN RESTAURANT, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE! read more

1 star because the server was nice. My whole experience was HORRIBLE. To start off, my Husband ordered a sweet tea, my kids lemonade, and I ordered a Bahama Mama. My drink didn't come until after we were done eating and had our to go boxes. server offered to get us my alcoholic drink to go, but never showed up with the to go cup. Despite asking multiple times, I never got that drink(until the end of our meal), silverware, or napkins. They brought my husband and I's food out 20 minutes before the kids meals. one of the Kids meals didnt come out with what we ordered. Service was so slow and terrible, we were there almost two hours. Then after we paid, went over the receipt again and found we were charged for a $10 magarita that we never ordered. Spent another 20 minutes getting that taken care of. read more

On Tuesday, October 23rd at around 7:30 I ordered a 3-way sampler and a salad... The salad dish was FILTHY and covered in grease and dirt. IT LOOKED LIKE IT HADNT EVEN BEEN WASHED! I sent it back because of the dirty dish.... 30 minutes later still no replacement salad. We had a movie we were going to be late for. The movie started at 8:40 and it was 8:35 before we could pay our tab. I expressed our concerns to the manager who didn't seem to want to accept any liability, which was irritating, and the server kept saying "its not my fault". I get that it isn't always the servers fault and I was in no way taking it out on her. But she should have seen that plate and known it was dirty and not offered it to a customer. The manager offered no solutions and a piss poor attempt of an excuse. No comps or anything (outside of the salad which I never recieved) This is just not how a business should be run. Furthermore, it should be that difficult to make a simple salad on a clean plate. Thanks, Applebees for ruining my date and leaving me hungry all night. It's hard to enjoy time with my hard working man when I'm starving and upset. I literally left in tears because I was so upset and hungry. Signed, Mrs. Hangry read more

For the last several years my husband and I have frequent in this Applebee's on the 4th of July. it is situated so that you have a somewhat obstructed but not too bad view of the fireworks from Tom Brown Park. I called this year a few days ahead to see about getting reservation, although I have never gotten one in the past, and was told to call the morning of. I just got off the phone to be notified that I needed to turn in $100 fee for the reservation by 5 p.m. this afternoon. when I inquired as to whether this hundred dollars would be applied to our final bill, or given back once we arrived to the establishment, I was told that the fee was for the reservation. And then ask to speak to the manager and was told that they were unavailable, even though this information was supposedly given to them from the manager. I do not see how they can charge simply for a reservation, if it were to be applied to the final bill that would be fine I could see there being $100 minimum to have the reservation (we have spent a minimum of that each year). This seems like a manager trying to make some extra money. Very disappointed. Will not be returning. read more

This is the third time I had a terrible meal and experience I ordered a bourbon street steak with no onions and a cesear salad, my mom club sandwich and my dad; chicken tenders and a garden salad. We waited the entire meal and never got checked on for drink refills, never brought out salads, chicken tenders and club sandwich cold. Steak came out with extra onions I advised them of the issue they recooked it and 20 mins later when everyone was done eating the steak came out again the same way with extra onions and not no onions. Also our salads came out after the meal cause I guess to them that seems right. Manager took off a few dollars but still charged us and didn't fix any of the mistakes. Stay away from this place it's awful. read more

We asked to sat outside and was informed who our waiter would be but he was super busy which was nice and we asked a nice young lady to turn on the fans, which she did. During her do that the manager scolded her because she had the door to the outside propped opened because she was trying to clean up all the outside tables with zero help. Now, our waiter still had not come out, so the nice young lady took are drink order and deliver them, at Wich time she informed us they would no longer be offering straws or plastic cups in the near future. If that is true we will no longer visit Applebee's because they will nolonger be kid friendly or ADA compliant for folks that need a straw that visit their restaurants. Now, this nice lady also took our order, not our waiter. Our waiter did come out and say he was sorry and thanked the nice young lady for helping us. The waiter assigned to us did handle getting our food out to us which all was hot and was good. The manager of this location should NEVER allow one waiter to get that far behind that other staff has to do their work for them. It was not just us either as the other table outside had delay after delay and also had to get their food redone. When this location of Applebee's opened it was great now it has went downhill severely again just like the previous location did sad. We will NOT be returning. The only reason I gave it two stars and not one was because of the hot food and the nice young lady. read more

Been six months since I have been here, thought I would give them a chance. Bad decision. Worse than ever. Bad service. Overpriced appetizer. Looked like I got the bottom of the bag on the chips and the boneless wings. Food was lukewarm and unappealing. Fries were greasy. Will not go here again. read more

We quit coming here about a year ago. The service started going down hill, the food was terrible, the general ambiance was just poor. Today.... Today, they've done a complete 180! the food is fresh, delicious, and comes out quickly with a smile. It's clean, the service is wonderful! They are on the ball! We love this new face of Applebee's!!!! We'll be back! read more

Ok so I'm giving this Applebee's 5-stars because for what it is, it does it well. We all know what to expect when we go to a casual chain restaurant - we're not expecting farm-to-table, organic, the owner to come talk to us, etc. and that's fine because that's the type of place Applebee's is. I'm giving 5 stars because I feel this location excelled in its category. The environment is a sports bar feel. I found this location to be particularly clean. The menu was more extensive than I remember it ever being (can't tell you the last time I went to an Applebee's). My boyfriend and I had a gift card for $20 and we stayed almost within that range for the two of us. They have these great date night deals where two meals are $20! Being the carnivore that he is, he got steak. And had no complaints (and he's very picky so that's a big deal). I got the mac and cheese . Oh my Gouda, it was one of my favorite macs I've tried yet! I think it was because there was a good balance of savory cheese coupled with the sweetness of the honey chicken. I could only eat half and was planning on taking the second half home but forgot it! So that just means I'll have to come back for round 2! read more
