Applebee's Grill + Bar

I can’t speak for everyone but I come from a place of self healing and growth and learning how to love and have a good time with just me. But going out alone has always given me such anxiety this neighborhood Applebees has truly brought me out of my shell and has become like home to me .they make me feel like family the food and drinks are absolutely delicious and the attention to detail and the fact they care about your feedback is everything. I recommend any and everybody come and check them out because this is now always my hang out I assure you if you’re dining alone and tend to feel awkward when doing so or just need a new cool hangout just give them a shot .. thanks Applebees team on wendover for giving a new found loner a place to feel safe and at home…. It’s always a good time..👌👌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great service. We order two different courses and they both were served with excellence. Manager came and made sure everything was good and asked if we needed anything else. Waitress needed a little bit more training but it was good.

We had a large party and a reservation. We were seated promptly, but it took awhile to get a waiter to our table. Once he arrived, we ordered and after 15 minutes, no drinks, no nothing. We left. Do yourself a favor-- don't eat here unless you have about 2 hours to be frustrated. Nobody cares here. Give it a month, it will be closed.

So, myself ans some fellow colleagues of mine visited this location tonight, after a long work day. We figured why not go across the street and that way we can get in and out. We ordered appetizers, some drinks and 2 meals. The adult beverages tasted like juice. One meal took so long to come out, that one of my colleagues, just asked for it to go. The waiter was not energetic, bubbly, or friendly. It was like he didn't want us to be there. This was the last tune we will be back.

Good food and fast service. Got seated right away.

This location lacks professionalism and tact. I’m from Raleigh I came here to eat and no one had the decency to sit me. 2 managers walked past all existing problems on the floor. This felt like a parody. I left. They clearly need to hire more staff. How are you short staff in a college city? The staff member (non host) was enjoying the game at least one of was enjoying our day.

Horrible experience. Online delivery has always been good but we decided to visit for Mother's Day and for my husband birthday. Hubby ordered 8 oz sirloin and I ordered 8 oz sirloin and shrimp. My steak was tiny. Both our plates were filthy and hideous looking. The only plate that looked ok was my friend loaded chicken. We complained to Tracy the manager who claimed they weigh the steak and that's how its cut and the plates bump together as to why they dirty. Hubby had bbq sauce on the side and bottom of his plate Mine looked like they used an old plate to throw that on. All food returned. We just paid for the drinks though we shouldn't had to due to the inconvenience and wait. Awful. Here's an old order from a year ago with an actual 8 ounce compared to the mess they tried to sell me attached to this review. Wasn't worth $20. Only thing that made this pleasant was the nice waitress Michelle S who had to work on her birthday. She told us how the cook and others dont listen to her on presentation. Well these pictures shows the lack thereof. First 2 pics are the delivery order a year ago versus the plates inside we sent back.. They should be ashamed of themselves.

My Sissy and I had a ball. Seriously! The staff was amazing 🤩 and the food was good. You know we had to get a couple blue 💙 margaritas 😀. That just sent us over the top. We had to squeeze in a sister's day trip. Shopping 🛍️ and food and The Apple 🍎 just ended our day with a banger. Thanks 🙏❤️ you guys. We must do this again soon.

If you're looking for standard restaurant fare--soups, salads, appetizers, salads, entrees--this is the place! We arrived to a fairly empty parking lot on an early Saturday afternoon--but before we left, the parking lot had started filling up. Food arrived fresh and hot. Nothing stood particularly stood out from meal, however server was attentive and friendly. The interior looks like every other location. The speakers in restaurant need to replaced as a song with a lot of bass (a variety of music was played) had major vibration. Heads up--the parking lot entrance is a bit awkward to navigate.

I treated myself to lunch. It was around 2 in the afternoon so it was pretty quiet inside. Now the menu was dirty. Do restaurants not clean the menus after customers have handled them? The food was good. Broccoli was a little salty but when paired with the mashed potatoes it was delicious.

I would give this trip a rating of 3.5! The restaurant was completely under staffed for a Saturday evening. And "being in the Biz" makes you appreciate the the industry even more. However, what should have been done during morning shift was obviously neglected and left up night workers. One thing I hate is receiving food without the proper items such as napkins, utensils and most definitely PLATES, but yet I didn't get any of that without requesting them. The food .... Well let's just say it's Applebee's; not too many of us make this chain our neighborhood bar because of the exceptional quality of food. It's about the atmosphere and for a cheap date such as myself....I'm ok with frozen food and the lack of customer connection for a 2 for 25 Anyday!!! CHEERS

The place was dirty the service was terrible the waitress got an attitude bcz we asked for the manager. We got salad and there was no dressing when we asked they said it was it was .25. Then the manager came and said the waitress never told her the salad didn't have dressing. The floor was dirty and it smelled. Drinks took for ever when the bill came they didn't even give us a pen. The waitress certainly needs to go back to waiter a school.

I normally love Applebees but this was not there night. Service was slow and the restaurant was pretty quite which was nice. We also went on a Tuesday night when barely anybody was in there. However are waitress was very nice and accommodating and fulfilled every request we had. The food was ok, I did have to have them reheat the queso dip due to it being cool on arrival. One of my friends also had made specific request due to her allergies and they were not correct. Overall the food was eatable and even though this wasn't my best experience I would still go back, just maybe on a different day.

I was passing through Greensboro on my way home and stopped by Applebee's! I'm so glad I did! I sat at the bar and Jessica was the best. She was friendly, very welcoming and definitely helpful when I couldn't decide which or what drink to order! She made me a delicious drink I never had before! Then two regulars came in and we started reminiscing about the area years ago! Well that was almost the icing on the cake! I ordered the Mardi Gras pasta & that put the icing on the cake!! You definitely can't go wrong with visiting this establishment... from the great attitude of Jessica & her manager to the food and the southern hospitality displayed by Sandee & Frankie!! I will definitely stop by there again!

My hubby and kids visited here lastnight and I must say, we were treated extremely well despite them being short staffed! Best experience ever!!

We had Allie as our waitress and she was SO kind and checked in on us constantly to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious and the area was clean.

We went here on 2-14-25 at about 10:00 pm. It was the worst! First of all, I ordered curb-side pick-up a few weeks ago and was not given my drink. When I called and spoke to the manager she was very nonchalant. As if to say "it's just a drink"! She asked if I was coming back to get the drink. With the cost of gas, it would have cost me more to return. There is no consideration of the fact that I paid for something I didn't get and the extra cost to come back and get it! She said she would put my name on a list. When I went 2-14-25 the waitress acted as if I was trying to get a free drink when I told her my name should be on a list. She stated she never heard of a list! I did get the soda free though! Now, back to 2-14-25. The food was just awful! The riblets were barely warm, looked old, and tasted even older. I told the waitress. She went and put it in the microwave as if that would make a difference. I ended up speaking to the manager who claimed they had just cooked them. They didn't even taste like pork. They had a taste of some foreign meat. It took my appetite away. I ended up eating a few boneless wings my friend had ordered. I will never go back here!

Food was awful! I was one of the few people in the restaurant during dinner rush (I now see why). They brought no napkins and acted surprised when I asked for them. They brought a stack of cocktail napkins to the table because they had no dinner napkins. Then came back and placed wet maps on the table stating "we also have these". No check in after food drop off to see how the meal was. Waited a long time to be seated. Clearly very poorly managed as these issues start at the top.

The food was okay. Some was luke warm, some was cold and it took 35-40 min just to get. The tenders were hard as a rock and the noodles were WAY over done. The waitress was sweet but taking her time with everything. I think that was the biggest concern of mine other than the food obviously because there was only people drinking at the bar when I had gotten there. It was very quiet at the table we were seated at but over by the bar it was loud. They were cussing and yelling while having drinks. (Including workers, don't know if they were on or off duty)

This place was not up to par! The bartender was the only one working even though that there were three front of the house staff members on duty. The appetizers took more than a long time to come out and I counted seven tables in the house between two and four. Being a customer service representative in the food and beverage industry I was appalled. Customer service is is an experience and from the parking lot to check out I was not taken back by my experience. FYI, it was my birthday. Better luck next time thanks

Took my mother in law for her birthday because this place is what she wanted. This visit started with her having the oriental salad which they didn't have but they had the manager make it for her. The bad part was it took almost an hour to get my food(prime rib dipper). There wasn't an apology for the delay, not even a discount for the meal for the circumstances. I didn't realize this location had such bad reviews. I'll never in the future go to this location ever again. Future customers, please read the other reviews!!

I was picking up a order for DoorDash and as I walked in to the pick up door, it was locked, so I had to walk through the front door, where there is nobody to greet me as I walked in. I proceeded to walk back to the bar, where two people stood there and another server who was working with a table acknowledged me and said what can I help you with. Another lady then brought out the food and never spoke. Everyone who worked there seemed very confused on what their job was. This restaurant has Horrible customer service.

In a word Not! Food rice was old Service thought a fight might break out Ambiance none!

The worst Applebee's EVER! Yes, we ordered the 2 for $29 of 2 8 oz. sirloin, mashed potatoes, and "garlicky" green beans. Absolutely, the most horrible I have ever had at an Applebee's. The steaks were so WELL DONE that they couldn't be eaten unless you had a set of teeth like Mr. Ed (the talking horse). The server was inattentive. There were only 9 other total diners in the restaurant. The manager did offer to cook a new steak, which I accepted and am taking home. Who knows how it will be. Anyway, you have been warned about this Applebee's. Run to the nearest McDonald's and get an edible meal (just kidding). I am just so disappointed. The manager was very kind and nice. I appreciated that part of the visit.

If I could leave negative stars I would!!! Got there at 6pm.... Not busy... had a table of 6. Waited an hour for the kids food to come out.... They started bringing the adults food out 20 minutes after the kids... except 1 plate.... And I waited another 20 minutes to get my food! 1 persons food was wrong.... Kids food was like warm at best.... And my steak was burnt and so tough I could hardly cut it.... Along with the big chunk of fat going down the middle of it... (6oz sirloin) only positive... they did take the steak meal off, and the plate that was wrong and an appetizer that took forever to come out. Still 30 bucks for some wontons a burger and 2 drinks.... To leave and have to go find somewhere else to eat.We definitely will not be back... and to anyone thinking of going.... Beware. We don't like to complain.... And usually do not leave bad reviews.... But tonight definitely called for it.

We went there for a late lunch on a Thursday. There were five other tables seated besides us, so it was not busy. Everyone else had their food. The hostess seated us and said the server will be with you shortly. We had time to look over the menu about three times and decide what we wanted and had yet to see a server. Not just one had not come to our table. We had not seen 1 walking around the restaurant at all. About that time, a girl comes out of the back and a table behind us is waving her over. She goes to them gets their money to pay them out, goes up to the bar With the money and ticket and starts talking to another employee, laughing and carrying on. She still had not acknowledged us brought us drinks nothing. We sat there and watched her banter back-and-forth with another employee after we had been seated for about 10 minutes with no acknowledgment. We finally got up and walked out, we went across the street to TGI Fridays and it was a totally different experience. I will never go back to this location.

Nothing but nice things to say on our visit came in last minute with a group of 11 the host was very accommodating and told us a 20 minute wait it was more like ten. The Manager Tracy came over and introduced herself she was great and made sure everything went smoothly. All in all a good time kudos to the wait staff and Tracy the manager

If there were zero star option this Applebee's would've received it. Took forever to get a server (place was not busy or full); Once we placed our order, she came back 10 minutes later and said one of our entrees could not be made as they started making rice and it takes 45 minutes. (Really?!). Picked another entree and ordered drinks. Food came---chicken and mashed potatoes were cold...still no drinks.... Never came back to check . When one person was done with meal and the other almost done the drinks came. Blech! Food was finished by then. Had to ask for check and waited for check another 10 minutes. Worst Applebee's ever!

We never were called for our seating after putting our name on the list for dinner. They took our name and number and never texted us. I overheard the hostess telling people coming in they are short handed. Ended up going to golden corral

Horrible service. 100000% do not recommend. Save your time and money. DO NOT COME HERE.

great food great service and family oriented atmosphere. will definitely be back with my family.

Should be no stars we waited to be put on list no one even greeted us then she put us at the bar took 15 minutes for the same lady to get our drink order then waited for that placed order salads came out then not even five minutes later the food came out. Then my rack of ribs was cut up into three sections I asked her why she didn't know I told her I wanted a full rack not cut up she came out of the kitchen and said they had no more ribs what else would I like I figured it best not to eat anything my wife and mom had their food while I sat there finally try to pay and got attitude from a waitress I flagged down I didn't know who my waitress was because I was at the bar area and the bartender NEVER even acknowledged us I will never go to this nor any other the place was so rude and not pleasant whatsoever

Awful but the bartender was trying her hardest. Quite disgusting, Do not recommend.

Zero stars. Worst service ever and we didnt even get sat down. Lady at front was unprofessional. Empty parking lot. Less than 10 tables sat. Told us it'd be a 45 min wait or something

They are terrible they don't do shyt right ever ! And I order from them every week it's like they can't Mf read in there !!!!!! I will never order apple bee's ever

This place had nothing. No beer on tap. No yogurt for the kid with us. NO SILVERWARE and the food came out half was cold and half was over cooked just absolutely terrible experience

Ordered my food my sides where missing I called back and was told my order would be replaced I returned an hour later they knew the order and refused to replace it so I drive back home across town for an order of fries. The manager didn't come to the phone when I called about the matter. I will not be returning to this establishment due to the lack of customer service they provide.

Everything we wanted they were out of it. No real silverware. Food was burnt and cold. Service was not good either. Had to keep asking for things. Go somewhere else.

As soon as me and three others walked in we were seated in reasonable time but then after that is when things went downhill. We sat at our table for about 30 minutes until our drinks where even taken , all we had was the menu .. no utensils. Our waiter then came back to our table maybe another 20 minutes later and got the orders. Not to mention she didn't have a few of the item we were looking for, which was okay considering it was close to the end of the night. Then what felt like a good hour later ( which she said was due to them only having two cooks ) she came back with our food. I ordered a chicken sandwich ( that I didnt finish ) and one of my colleagues got shrimp, he said immediately after his stomach started to hurt. We were not pleased at all. The overall experience was 3/10 i expected more honestly ‍

waiter said she worked at the bar but would bring out food shortly took her 2 hours got appitizzer after food an missing items like garlic bread and broccoli and a raw burger when the food finally came .

Absolutely horrible does not even rate any star. The server failed to put the order until 20 minutes after we ordered. He is so lazy he brings two drinks to your table. He brought a salad if I wanted a salad I would have ordered a salad. By making me a salad I did not want is a waste of product. All this before my food has come out. The food did arrive 8 minutes after it was finally entered into the system. The manager did comp the bill.

My husband and I stopped in for dinner around 6:30 pm. The minute we opened the door it smelled like a urinal cake in the lobby. Our waiter walked us through a pile of trash on the floor and tried to seat us at a table that was filthy. My husband had to ask for us to be seated elsewhere. That pile of trash Sat on the floor for about 25 mins before it was picked up. They were cleaning supplies on various tables throughout the restaurant. All of the waiters except one sat around the dining area on their phones. The entire restaurant had an odor to it. When we were seated our table was wiped down with a cloth that was already wet that I believe came out of a bucket that was sitting on one of the tables full of filthy water from who knows how many tables that have been wiped down. The lady who we assumed to be the manager was sitting at the bar not doing anything. We ordered mozzarella sticks as an appetizer and halfway through eating them there was a glob of something in the marinara sauce. We couldn't tell if it was some type of green leafy substance with cheese on it or mold. We ordered hamburgers. When they came the bun on the outside was covered in either grease or butter. The fries did not seem to be fresh some of them look like they had been dropped in the fryer more than once. My husband finished his burger but I only made it halfway through mine. Another party came in after us and was seated at a booth with a window. When the sun started setting the waitress pulled down the shade which had a huge stain on it. The windows themselves were absolutely filthy. The entire restaurant needed a thorough cleaning. Whoever the owner of this restaurant is needs to shut that place down for about a month and do an extremely deep clean of everything. The staff should be terminated as it seemed like none of them were interested in doing anything but sit around on their phones. And whoever the manager on duty was did absolutely nothing to change their behavior. We will absolutely never be back to that restaurant. And if you're ever on wendover looking for a place to eat I recommend that you do not ever go to the Applebee's.

Their COSMIC WINGS are very good. We got the Garlic Parm wings (reg & boneless). The waffle fries were also good. They were delivered hot & ready to eat

Probably one of the most ghettoest unprofessional restaurants that I have ever been to, staff is wild lazy , shorty with the stiff slick down hair is wild lazy and unprofessional she's a host . When you walk in whoever is supposed to greet you just stares at you along with 10 other employees like "what do they want" I wanna eat stop staring stand up and greet your customers idk how this store is still open tbh lmao, I went the other day and the lazy big girl gonna keep staring at me then finally gets up and says "it's gonna be a 30 min wait "meanwhile I see probably 15 ppl in there and mad waitresses on the phone cooling managers always in the back the only way I finally get someone to greet us most times is when I stand in the restaurant and call the front desk just so they can walk up to us smh definitely a terrible establishment

Number 1 Applebee's. 3 trophies to prove it. You are eating good in the neighborhood when you go here. The staff is dedicated and the atmosphere is that Applebee's je ne sais quoi.

Straight trash! Looks like drug deals going on in and outside of the restaurant. Waiter was rushing me to order. Food came out horrible. Asked for my check and boxes. Didn't even eat a bite.

We came in redeem a certificate we received on a prior due to an incomplete order. We were seated next to a table with food and dishes left from the last customer. We ordered our food at 2 pm. By 2:45 we had not received anything. We weee told by the waitress that she had the appetizer wings cooked again because they were burnt. Five minutes later, we hear her asking if anyone had seen any buffalo wings. Next, we see presumably our wings being served to the one person sitting at the bar. We did get the kids chicken tender fries we ordered at 2:50 pm-all of it was cold to the touch.

A breadstick came with my salad that was buttery and fresh with just the right amount of crisp in the crust. I thought my Oriental Salad had too much dressing on it. The service was great.

We came in for the $1 BAHAMA mamas! While we were here I decided to get something to eat. I ordered the bacon whisky burger. Food came out in a timely manner,but my burger waa undercooked. No biggie I came for the drinks anyway. My second round of Bahamas mama there was something floating in my drink. At this point I'm still waiting for my food and I'm getting frustrated . Overall it was below average. I would come back to Applebees just not this particular location.

Doesn't honor yelp wait list and indicated they don't know anything about it. Had lots of empty tables but not sitting anyone

The signs of this location was clear for years; however last night's service ended a tradition I must celebrate elsewhere. A good friend and I went out for Girls' Night Out only to end the night disappointed. Twenty minutes after ordering a Wonton dinner, my friend was told they ran out of Wonton. Applebee's running out of food on a main strip of Greensboro during March Madness weakened? How tacky! She ordered the WATERMELON Sangria only to taste more cranberry in an iced down drink. If you think her order was messed up only, guess again. I originally ordered the Blue Hawaiian LIT cocktail drink only to be told they ran out of a main ingredient earlier in the day. So, I ordered the Irish Peach Sour only to get a Bahama Mama instead. How can you mix up the two drinks? The Classic Trio snack combo arrived WARM. The nachos were on a metal tray from Grernsboro's jail house, and the cheese in the cheese sticks were barely warm. When my friend asked to speak with the manager on duty, we were stunned to see an attractive male in a flannel shirt appear as if he works on a farm instead. What happened to Applebee's dress code? I don't know what is going on at this location, but I can confirm I will no longer visit it. Mangement is a hot mess for certain!

The absolute worst service of any outback I have ever been to. I have lived in Florida, Virginia and North Carolina, this place takes the last place award. The food was horrible, broccoli uncooked and waitress had no idea. COVID is making it worse. More excuses for staff to be lazy! I will not eat here again.

Stood at the front door for 10 minutes and no greeter greeted us. A employee walked past us twice and had to ask are you seating people. He then said it's a 30 minute wait as I was supposed to know

This location was just super ghetto and ugh . Dirty and the counters were sticky . I was pissed when I got there and they were out of the soup I wanted . Wait not out of the soup but that particular location didn't serve it . I was like WHAT ??? but whatever other than that it's just dirty and the service is terrible AF

DO NOT COME HERE!! Service is lousy! Waited 10 minutes just to leave. No one served me and my friend either drinks or even a menu. Every waitress was either on their phone or talking to someone!! There was a family that had waited 20 minutes for service before leaving. If I could give this place zero stars I would!

Did the waitlist which said about 10-15 mins. Our party walked in and the hostess acted like she didn't even want us there. She just leaning against a table. We left.

I did not enjoy this experience , my nephew that turned 14 years old did not have a staff that wanted to genuinely sing happy birthday the energy was off and instead said they were "short staffed" after our nice waitress tried to ask twice and third time just came back with ice cream apologizing . Never again . I would not recommend coming to this place .
