    Great sandwiches!!! Very friendly service. The kids love the sandwiches. Great value for the price. I'll be back next time we're in the area.

    Nasty dirty soggy worst. Staff does not care about service. Had multiple bad experiences here and I won't give them another opportunity.

    I'm rating this for what it is, compared to other Big Boy locations, not trying to make it…read moresomething it's not. You don't go here for healthy. You go for the Big Boy burger, fries, and that mix of mayo and ketchup on the side. You already know what you're walking into. That burger alone feels like you gain weight just looking at it, and honestly... that's the point. And you do not skip the Boston Cooler. That's non-negotiable. This spot, especially in Michigan, is one of those places you hit on the way in or out of Saginaw. It's part of the routine. Some locals might be over it, but if you didn't grow up around it, it's almost like a rite of passage. Does it need a deep clean? Probably. But you kind of make peace with that walking in. The mindset is simple: the food is cooked, you're here for the experience, and you know exactly what you're getting. It's one of those old-school, almost historic-feeling joints you just don't drive past. You stop, you order the classics, and you lean into it.

    Food and Service was excellent! Stopped in to the Big Boy to revisit an old favorite. The Slim Jim…read morewas delicious and the fries on point, perfectly cooked. Even the coleslaw was fresh and tasty. The waitress provided excellent service. The food was promptly delivered and did not disappoint. Don't let this old favorite slip away as many have. You can't go wrong with a Slim Jim or a Big Boy hamburger.

    Given prior reviews, this place must have really upped their game!…read more Two of us stopped here on a Monday night as we wanted a decent meal deal without being limited to burgers and fries. The vibe was comfy as they had a Lions game on the TVs and some of the patrons were interested. The restaurant was about 40% full at 7 pm. We ordered from the 2 for $25 menu, which let us of each get a house (or caesar) salad and entree. The house salads were fresh and generous, with chopped cucumber, tomato, cheese and croutons. We both ordered the chicken parmasean fettuccine as entrees, expecting a lot of pasta with a small portion of chicken. That's NOT what happened! There WAS a generous portion of pasta with ample sauce and a thick, full half chicken breast. It was fried, but not greasy, and topped with an appropriate amount of flavorful tomato sauce and cheese. It also came with a breadstick. Because we were driving through the area, we did not order any drinks, despite the many specials and options offered. Our server, Ally, was friendly and checked on us at the right times. The restaurant was clean, although we did notice a table go uncleared for a relatively long time, not that anyone was left waiting. I've avoided Applebees for a long time, but I'd come back. It was a good experience, food and deal.

    Had dinner with with a group of six. Ordered California Chicken salad and fries. I was the last…read more of six to be served. 45 minutes. The fries were the LAST to come. The salad was drenched with dressing - swimming. Terrible service, terrible experience, terrible food!!!! Next time it will be sent back until they get it right.. Yuck to Applebees!!!
