Have been here many times with the family since it opened. Always received wonderful and timely service. We've never had any issues with our orders. Food is always as described in the menu. Always look forward to seeing what's new with each visit. read more

Food needs to be cooked as ordered. We both ordered the 6oz sirloin, both came out overcooked, on a time constraint so didn't have time to send them back. Just choked them down. Asked for well steamed broccoli which came out with grill marks and was tough, unedible. Service was fair, read more

Overall super good five stars but the steak was a little too of red you said I needed 85 more characters so it's already done

The food was not good I got a simple meal it was honey chicken tenders on the four cheese Mac and cheese I took some home and got food poisoning read more

Excellent service and food. We often go here to watch a game on TV as well and they are very congenial about putting our game in the nearest TV set read more

Our waiter ass by twice didn't even stop by to say if we needed a refill even though my glass was empty !!this place use to be a great place to go chill out and grab a bit to eat! steak was still good. Hope service gets better!!overall it was Olin service!! read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Applebees restaurant - American Near Me - Weslaco, Texas

We popped in at 2:30 on a Monday for a beer and burger. Unfortunately we sat for well over 10 mins the hostess went to get the bartender (she had Bright reddish hair) as soon as we're seated. Well the bartender came out never looked at us and proceeded to train (hopefully her replacement). We were about 10 feet away and tried to flag her down4 plus times. We were the only ones in the bar. The restaurant portion had 3 people. The hostess tried to get her attention as my husband did, but to no avail. We were BEYOND frustrated as we watched her proceed to train this gal on the 2 for 35 deals and how to punch them in. As you can see we were that close. No acknowledging us or even looking in our direction! We decided to get up and she finally came out from the back with the trainee in tow. We said nope we're going. And I proceeded to tell her I could definitely work the 2for 35 in the machine as we listened to it. We walked out and went to next door to wild wings within 2 mins we had a cold beer and our orders were taken. There were a good 15 people in there all getting their drinks and food! This is our first year as winter Texans and applebees will not be one of our weekly places to frequent in the 5 months we are here. Terrible service! I have never used yelp to rate a restaurant but I feel compelled to do so. If I could I would give this a Zero star! read more

This restaurant has really turned it around. We go weekly now. Great appetizers, great bar staff, great burgers. Pleasant atmosphere where you can carry on a conversation. read more

+3 for server +1 for bartender -3 for management +5 for bussing team We arrived at 1:10, placed order at 1:35 (last call). Drinks were served in to go ramekins and a "tall" draft (16oz) was actually a 12oz bottled poured into a tall glass because the bartender already cleaned the draft lines (still charged for a "tall" beer), specialty drink wasn't served with sour gummy garnish or whatever. It's principle. Manager was rude, tall, medium/heavy set female. She said I was being difficult and not understanding despite working 10+ years in food and beverage management in a higher market like Austin, Tx. I just wanted a shot and a beer with intentions of leaving before close. Bottom line, I hate doing this.. but this is the reason this is a 2 star establishment. Management was aggressive and dismissive, no blame for service staff because they should receive adequate and corrective coaching from management. Pathetic management and misguided but well intentioned service staff. read more

Loud banda and other Mexican music. Don't get me wrong, I love traditional Tejano music, but what was playing was awful and extremely loud. Staff was standing around surrounded by trash on the floor! It didn't bother them. I never saw the manager! I couldn't get out of there fast enough! read more

Food and waiter deserve only 1*, but I'm going with 4* due the manager. He understood the situation and made right with the bill.

Super disappointed with my visit. We went in to have a girls night just to end up getting minimum service, we got cut off within our drinks (some of us 2 and others 3), and our orders took sooooo long to come out. Both drinks and food. We understand since we do work in the same industry but how is it that the manager only attended and checked on certain tables. The host which was a young man helped us out more than our own waitress. Never going back after the experience we got. Rude and unprofessional all around. read more

They got my order completely wrong. I am allergic to beef and ordered nachos without meat; I was delivered beef nachos. I cannot eat the food. Also, they charge for ice cream in with a brownie bite, but it's a tiny cup and not worth what you pay for it. read more

I'd give these guys zero stars if I could. I went on a Saturday night around 10:15. The place was pretty busy as this was obviously the place to be on a Saturday night. After we were seated it took the waitress 15 minutes to come to our table. We ordered our drinks and meal because we didn't know when we would see her again. 20 minutes later still no drinks. Not even a glass of water. As we got up to leave the manager overheard me say this was ridiculous and offered to get our order herself. I thanked her but insisted I wanted to leave. We walked next door to wild wings and had our food and drinks within 15 minutes of walking in. Applebee's sucks. read more

I am a patient man and it usually takes a lot to compel me to write a bad review but the experience my family and I had today has to be told. We were seated and waited for over 20 minutes. We were not greeted, not told our server was coming, our drink order was not taken. We even asked the hostess who our server was. Ultimately we just left and went to Golden Corral instead. read more

We placed an order to go for lunch, it was a total fiasco. First they have a robotic system to place your order which does not understand English. We pull up in the car side to go parking only, call the phone number, cannot get anyone to answer. After several minutes we had to go inside to make payment. All of which could have been said prior to us finishing placing our order. The wait was ridiculous their antiquated phone system makes things so difficult and we have a very limited time for lunch. Rest assured we will not be coming back here. read more

Service at this place sucks. Food was cold. Endless fries? I had to ask for them because they weren't on my plate

Well........ My queso was cold. Someone took a shit on the floor in the restroom. And apparently it's a fucking club after 10pm. Fucking selling Jell-O shots for a dollar. (Actually a good deal and I got a dui because of them) oh yea also. I was solicited by an older woman. That was pretty out of control. And she actually took a shit in the restroom. I watched and paid her like a gentleman. read more

This review goes for all Applebee's I've ever been to. Seems service is the same all across the board with Applebee's. Terrible, terrible service. Waitresses all seem overwhelmed. One was on the verge of tears. Can't handle big groups. Food always cold. Orders are always wrong. Manager at Weslaco location wasn't helpful but defensive. Waitress made excuses for not being helpful. Saying it wasn't her section so she didn't have to be helpful. Customer isn't always right mentality here. Dirty restrooms Been to Weslaco location twice. But again all Applebee's I've been to are the same. read more

Worst service ever!!!! Our server looked like he was on drugs. He asked me for my ID 3x after i said I only wanted a water. When we asked to speak to the manager he refused to call them and just made us pay for our tab, food that we did not even touch. Every time we asked for something it seemed like it was such a bother. Will never be returning here again!!!! Customer service was extremely poor. So sad. read more

ZERO STARS IF I COULD. Our waiter was okay but as the night progressed, our experience was beyond horrible. Mine and my dads orders were the last to come out, riblet special and mac & cheese with chicken. The ribs were ice cold and the waiter took the plate back. My mac and cheese was penne pasta with the bowl full of water on the bottom and what looked like a failed attempt at a sauce. The waiter brought back new ribs for my dad and asked him to check if they were hot--still ice cold and the waiter said "sorry" like oh well cant do anything about it. He took back my mac and cheese and I asked for a burger instead. I waited over 30 minutes for my food, everyone at the table was done eating. They had forgotten my order twice and when it was made again, it was delivered to a different table for another customer. By the time they brought my burger out, I had lost my appetite because I was so disappointed. Our waiter was not too attentive after countless mistakes and mishaps, almost like he gave up on our table. Didn't really come back anymore. We couldn't find a manager and gave up completely. Our ticket was beyond expensive for the horrible service, food and overall experience we had. I cannot believe this. PS, THE PLACE WAS DEAD AND HARDLY ANY CUSTOMERS, HOW DID THEY MAKE THIS EXPERIENCE SO HORRIBLE? read more

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. First red flag was when our waitress was taking our orders and my bf asked for a coke and the waitress answered, "dr pepper or sprite" instead of saying they were out of regular coke. When waitress brought our plates, she failed to give us utensils and refills and we sat there for almost 10mins, waiting for her to come back. She never did. We had to go out of our ways and called another waitress, asking to get our waitress. Our waitress never came and it was another server who brought our utensils. We didn't see our waitress again until the end, when we yet again, had to ask another waitress to get our waitress to get our bill. This place was trash. Will never be coming back. read more

I won't go to this location any longer because I've had nothing but bad experience and service. The food was never bad.. until, I ordered from DoorDash today to be skimped on my salad (hardly any lettuce) but I let it slide and ate it anyway. I got through half and found two hairs.. had to throw it away. Very disappointed. Will no longer order from here either. 10/10 would not recommend. read more

Good food! Hubby and I do the 2 for $25. Good music, whoever was playing it!! Waitress was not bad. Beer wasn't as cold as we like it but the price was good. read more

The food wasn't bad the service was horrible only came once to the table once we were finishing, even had to go call them for the ticket

Horrible horrible place. I came in for some food and waiting for the waiter 15-20 minutes to come thru to get my order. Bastard never even showed up. I got up and walked out. The most horrible place I've ever been too. GO BANKRUPT PLEASE read more

New servers, glad management is taking steps for a better dining experience. I noticed the food wait time has gone down a lot. Food also taste fresh. Less ghetto. read more

Iv been to multiple Applebee's and I have never been as disappointed as tonight's visit at this location. The food was below average and the customer service, although not bad, failed to meet my expectations of good service. Manager addressed my concerns regarding the service but I am still unhappy with my dining experience. read more

I always love the food and the service, but one server today goes by the name of Edward, did the bare minimum. I'd ask a question he'd answer as he was still walking. If I go back I'm demanding another server. Food was good though. read more

Horrible. Would we come again? More than likely not. We ordered the All Day Brunch Burger. It was burnt and the meat was dry. We also ordered the Sirloin Stir Fry. It was bland and the Sirloin tasted old and dry. It tasted as if it had been sitting there for a while. We also ordered the 4 cheese Mac & Cheese. The same as the others bland and tasteless. There were also plenty of flies during our entire visit. It was annoying. We brought up out issues to the waitress who happened to always be busy conversing with servers on and off the clock. She didn't offer or say much other that "Ohhh :/". We were very disappointed. We asked her to present the issues to someone else, but we highly doubt anything was done. Our drinks were also flat. If they had an option for 0 stars .. I'd choose that. read more

The waiter Tony did a terrible job. He had no manners, and definitely no waiter etiquette. He didn't say excuse me when reaching across the table to serve us. Didn't come by our table to check on us. And the Resturant was not even empty. The food was great, and tasty but the waiter did such a poor job that it made the whole experience a bad one. read more

Well the manager came out looking for something around my seat, I got up asking what was going on and then he said there was a cockroach around me. Ended up it was crawling on me ( hate cockroaches btw). No big deal, shit happens, but come on. The guy didn't even offer to get me a drink. I'm not looking for free stuff but come on man... a cockroach crawling on me. I jumped like a woman and batted it off me! My integrity was tarnished!!!!!!! I will and continue to always drink here because the PBR's are 2$ and it's so close to home! Cockroaches be damned! Haha thanks Applebee's stay classy. read more

Our second visit to this Applebee's in a week and after reviewing the reviews on this site from other customers, I want to chime in on the bad service. Near the hostess area trash and crayons littered the floor. We were seated and ordered drinks and then ordered our meal. A couple that came in after us received there food before us. Both times the server forgot to bring our silverware. Our food was slow coming out. They got the order right and the food was ok. Judging from other post like ours, it's plan to see that management needs to get involved to bring up service standards. read more

We just had horrible food and horrible service. We ordered the "new" green chile nachos and received greasy, soggy nachos that lacked any flavor. I ordered the quesadilla burger and it was nothing short of awful. The name alone is deceiving...the burger itself should be called a tortilla burger because there's no quesadilla. Again...extremely greasy, no flavor, meat was dry. Our waitress did not provide great service. We asked her for cutlery / condiments and she would stand around and talk to other co-workers, giggle, and was extremely slow paced. Poor service and food. I will not be returning here...ever. read more

Tonight was by far the worst dinner EVER! This is the forth time we get bad service at the same Applebee's location, WESLACO. Gloria the manager is very unprofessional, unpleasant and carries an uncaring demeanor. This isn't the first time we've dealt with her due to the same issues. Every football Monday all the appetizers are half off. Why wouldn't she be fully staffed ? Instead the bartender was taking care of tables, hence tables were waiting 15+ minutes just to put in a drink order, and even longer to place an order of food. She accused the server we requested of stealing "our table" after we flagged him down and requested some assistance Sadly when brought up to her attention Gloria threatened to call the cops if we didn't leave "her restaurant". Soooo guess what I told her ? Lol, that's right, call them, please call them. They came, again. Apparently she's known to call them all the time on customers complaining. Applebee's director of operations, do yourself a favor, review your cameras. You'll see what a bad image your "manager" is giving your weslaco location. Ps. Cops came and we were banned read more

Horrible service, rude bartender......she was saving seats for customers at bar top......she didn't know where the customers were and when I asked if other seats were open....she said "go ask people next to those seats." She should pay attention to patrons........ read more

the cup that i had my soda served in looked like it wasn't washed properly, it even looked like they didn't even use soap to wash it, it smelled ugly and besides that it felt oily, i was grossed out read more
