Applebee's Grill + Bar

An ideal place to eat, it has a variety of food very good prices, the attention is incredible, they speak English and they speak Spanish in addition to that they put games for children to write and it is also very quiet. It has televisions. Good Parking

Place was empty when I went in only 1 table and a older lady sitting at the bar camped out. 1 server OB was working the whole floor. He was very calm, patient and did a great job! If it wasnt for him, I might have given a 2 star review. Food was ok. Had a 6 Oz sirloin with green beans and mashed potatoes. Green tasted and smelled a bit "fishy" but steak was ok ok. Not expecting too much from Applebee's for a steak. Meal was a priced well $9.99. Next time will try something else and a dessert. Will look for OB again

This whole review is only to complain about my waitress only (I eish I remembertheir name so I could name drop). The restaurant was the least crowded I could ever imagine for a friday night. No wait at the door but it took our waitress 20 min just to come and ask us about drinks, and another 20 minutes for an appetizer. If I had smaller bills I would have dropped 15 bucks on the table and left. Now the good part after an hour of wating for the food we ordered 20 minutes into our stay I ask for the bill to pay and leave with no entrees and our food is magically done. I was so ready to get out of there at this time that I paid for it all and left with everything in to go boxes. Im not one to make a fuss outloud but having to pay for cold food that took an hour to get is a wonderful experience.

I am so glad I ignored the reviews!!! I had a blast and the food was delicious! My server was a 10 and she was very caring!! She even helped me get a charge on my phone 🫶🫶🫶 I went at 10 pm . Not sure if it makes a difference, but everyone on staff was on point 🤌👌

Say in the bar area to watch the Texans game. Pleasant atmosphere with little noise. My wife and I enjoyed a good dinner with our 4yr old and we're able to have a conversation with each other without yelling, while watching the game.

Saturday after Christmas,lunch. service only in the bar area. I am the caretaker for my father, mother and my special needs sister. When greeted after wait at the door, asking for a table ( which we were told the other area was closed, while we could see customers seated and eating. ) we were seated at a booth... 10 minutes later we're moved to a table in the closed area. The manager served us . They were low or out of several menu items. The spinach and artichoke dip had no artichokes or cheese and could have been spinach soup. The only reason we'll return to this location is due to my sister's special request, as we did at this time. She visits every Noel season, going out to a restaurant is a special treat for for that part of my heart. Our entire family was sadly disappointed, again, with how parochial others can be.

When we waked in, the hostess didn't know if they were open or not, almost an hour after posted opening time. Chairs were still stacked on the tables. The waitresses didn't seem all that interested in serving us. One took my wife's water glass to refill it, then forgot to bring it back. After placing our order, we noticed people around us getting their food, and we were the first to arrive by a good 15 minutes. Eventually one of the waitresses came to tell us that the manager had to go get a sauce for the chicken parmesan fettuccine. Instead of waiting even longer, my wife decided to have what I had ordered, the grilled cheese hamburger. Bad move. Both meals were bland, and not very hot. All in all, not an experience we are likely to repeat. Too many other places to go!

To end the night with Applebee's after my long shift from work , all i can say is the service and food was amazing. Thanks to our server john. 😊

If I could get this restaurant 10 stars, I would first of all the food is OK it's Applebee's after all. You definitely get the bang for your book. However, it's all about the service and the ambience which I would give the award to this young lady named Pourche, which is a great bartender she gives this place 10 stars anywhere she goes she will make it shine. She makes a party she makes you feel good. She's your therapist. She's the best ever if I own the restaurant or I ever went to Business, I'd want her to be my number one partner. This young lady is beautiful and she knows how to make drink and serve you right and she takes care of. She put that S. in service. I hope management sees this. Ten Stars

Food was great. Service was not great at all. Our waiter didn't ask what we wanted on our burger. Bought a a dry one. Also she had an attitude after we asked for refills after we talked to the manager. ED the manager on duty seemed more concerned with correcting us on our order placement than correcting the order. He proceeded to call me an ignorant drunk and asked us to leave. Then tried to escort me out the restaurant after I specifically said i did not want him near me.Dude seemed to have an extreme chip on his shoulder. He needs to be fired. To top it off we heard cursing and yelling from the kitchen throughout our meal. One waitress really stood out seemed to really like her job and provide excellent customer service her name was cherry. I work in a service industry so when I spend my money service is number one. We will never return to this location. Update: This location added a tip to my tab without permission. I guess they feel like they deserved a tip for terrible service.

Horrible service. Very rude staff. Took mom for lunch. No one to wait on you. When he finally showed up, he was very rude. Restaurant had only a couple of people inside. I will never go back to this location again. I only went because I had a gift card. I lost my appetite, due to the employee rudeness.

Worst restaurant ever! Do not come here if you want great food or great customer service. You will get neither! That is why this place is always empty and how they stay open is beyond me. The servers are horrible, the management is horrible and that's the problem. You will sit there waiting for a server for a while and it's a shame that you as the customer has to wave someone down when they keep passing you by knowing you haven't been helped. But do they care? Nope! I've been here twice and never again. It will only piss you off because of how horrible this place is. Do us all a favor and shut down permanently.

We enjoyed lunch here today. Our waiter was very polite and attentive. The restaurant was very clean. I love going in for lunch around opening time because it's always uncrowded. Our lunch came to the table warm and correct , and taste delicious.

Listen if you care about your health this place is roach and rodent infested literally droppings everywhere.Also if you look directly up at any vent or ceilings it's black mold every where (the drink machine as well ) don't get me started on how they store your food before being cooked.Ive done contract work for plumbing for them so trust I've seen every inch of this disgusting establishment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Seriously how could y'all put individuals at risk.

Went there for my birthday Dinner tonight.. had a very good time.. I had the Swiss mushrooms bacon burger.. it was a 10/10 .. our waitress was beyond delightful and very very nice and accommodating.. no complaints here .. definitely will be coming back soon for sure .. and the ambiance was so so pretty and cool .. haven't been to Applebees in a while and this one didn't disappoint

Worst service tonight ! The lady walked us in was nice and formal. I thought she was a server ( that would have been great ) but she was at bar area, assuming she's a bartender. The lady that was supposed to be the server in our dining area, just stood at the 2 guy-table, assuming her friends of some sort, talked and talked for 15 mins straight. No service was provided, or even a greeting or water the moment we sat down. The talking went for 15 mins , for god sake we even turned our head at her, made eye contacts with the guys at that table. Lots of dirty tables, honestly, need better staff training. Previous experiences with Apple Bee had been great, from service to food. I remembered the service every-time, the black lady served us both times, professional and polite. Probably not coming back due to bad service.

This place is a disaster. Overpriced,took forever to get food. Their prime rib sandwich is no more prime rib than the bottom of my shoe. Just overcooked very thinly sliced i hope it was beef. Took outrageous amount of time to get our meal. Service was no bueno. Waitress was nice but never came by to explain the ridiculous long wait. French onion soup was bland light brown broth with slightly sweet bread and other stuff floating in it, either the cook has no idea what french onion soup is supposed to be like or he maybe had no recipe and was winging it.Never have i seen French onion soup like that before. I hadn't been in this Applebee's in a long time, and will never go back. Don't waste your time in there. Go to Cheddars or Texas Roadhouse or somewhere, they are cheaper and much,much better.

Food was cold. Person behind the bar took forever.To give me my food came in at 7:20 left at nine only got two things from the all you can eat the people that came after me left shortly after due to the food taking forever

Guys, I'm telling you if you haven't been to Applebees lately you're missing out. Jeannette our server was great. She was so sweet and attentive. We watched her help an elderly woman out to her car. We enjoyed her service and the food so much we have been 3 times this month. The lunch specials and dollar margaritas are amazing.

No hostess, no bartender, waited over 5 minutes and finally we left. Heard staff say oh well as we walked out.

My husbands wings were cold, and our food was not made how we ordered it. We will not be coming back to this location nor any other applebee's.

No hostess no Bartender nobody even welcomed us for seven minutes. Oh no, maybe 10 minutes still nobody so we decided to leave and we're leaving. I heard somebody say the bartender your bar customers just left , and he said oh well

This location has the entire team concept down! Someone's taking your order, so one else may walk by and notice your drink is low. They utilizing food runner from the back to ensure that your order was out to you quickly as it was prepared

The worst service. I came in after a long day. Ready to drink and relax. I was ignored by my bartender Porche (blonde). Myself and other guests were annoyed with the service as well. When I was finally acknowledged she still took a while. It's only 5 of us at the bar top. Played on her phone, talked with coworkers and THEN made my drink. It was just a Don Julio on the rocks.... Simple. I'm in the industry as well so I'm ready to tip well. I get if it's a long night. But she didn't even try. Seemed like she didn't even care to serve anyone. Just complained about being annoyed, out loud. I watched people walk out from frustration. This experience was a mess. Just embarrassing.

Stay away from this apples, by far the worst one i've ever been too. staff is horrible, rude, and they act like they are doing you a favor for serving you!!!! STAY FAR FAR AWAY.

Pounding rap music, food cold, asked for an appetizer and was going to be brought after the entree. So, I cancelled it. I'm a regular customer and was surprised on how bad the kitchen food was today. Always been my to place to go. Very upset, but didn't seem like they cared!

Clean environment, waitress was nice, the food was really good we got the lime chicken and Alfredo pasta for just $30 they have a special right now. The only downside is the waiting time. We came at 12:00am

There is a reason no one goes to this restaurant. If we hadn't had gift cards we would not have been there either. Maybe 3 tables in the entire restaurant. It was 730. No one even in bar. Our waiter was brand new and clearly not trained. He was very sweet but didn't have a clue about the menu items or how to be a waiter. Food was mediocre. Had to go look for someone to get refills of tea twice. Dirty dishes never removed from table. We went probably a year ago and said we would never be back. Should have stuck with that thought.

Service was horrible ,our waters never brought out and food was never put in by server they forgot about us for 50 mins . Only good thing was the manger took care of our drinks . Wasted so much time here.

i would rate zero if I can worst experience ever me and my husband dine in and we wanted a spinach dip and there was a roach in the spinach dip and this was at the bottom of it so I probably ate more !!!!I am so nauseous to even think about it I feel like going to the hospital as we speak !!! and I have the most sensitive stomach you could ever think I will never look at spinach dip the way I did. and i lovveeeee spinach dip not more thanks to apple bees

Place was dead so I was expecting good service but I was wrong. We were sat down automatically which was nice, server introduced herself and got our drinks and walked away. Couldn't ask for straws bc she just walked away and ended up leaving because after waiting 20 minutes to order our food we realized she wasn't coming back any time soon :)) didn't even get to drink our drinks. DONT waste your time. Basically a retirement home

Great place. Love their food. Planning on going back soon. Especially like when they have their AYCE riblets.

DELIVERY PERSONNEL!!! The employees at this Applebee's always do an amazing job for me. All you delivery drivers need to remember that they have online orders, call in orders and all the other orders they have to deal with. Be patient.

Food was just ok. Service was just ok do not expect refills on drinks till the end of your meal . The food was wrong when brought out. The waitress never caught it drop off food and Disappeared at end of meal waitress show up with check and ask if everything was ok. Waitress ask if we would like to go drinks said no thank but could you please take off the Mac and cheese that a up sales. Waitress left and went to take of bill took a long time to get the bill correct. The waitress said she had to wait on her manager to correct the bill. Manager never came by table to say sorry or engage conversation about wrong items.

This place use to be so good. It was cool going to a neighborhood spot where over the years I got to know the staff/servers. At my best I'd be in there on average 3 times out of the week. It was never the best at anything but they were very good at the most important things. The people by far being their most redeeming quality. In 2024 this place sucks. My last visit with my fiancé was so bad I almost skipped out on the check because the service was so friggin slow. I practically begged a random server to take my credit card and check me out so we could leave! The food was so disappointing. When we ordered beers it took no less than 10 minutes to come to us. Hell, the first two we ordered I left my booth and picked them up from the counter because they had been sitting there for at least five minutes. I'm not an impatient person but when I see that we are one of five tables being served, that's a problem! I blame our server for that but the strange part was the shift manager. Damn near the whole time we were there she was in the To-Go area blankly staring out of the glass on the door. It was one of the weirdest things I've ever seen. Like she was going over all the life choices she's ever made or singing a Disney song in her mind. Like I said earlier, this place has sucked this calendar year with my last visit being my last visit. I was really trying to hang in there with them but enough is enough.

Waited for over 40 minutes just to get a drink order in that was never delivered... I decided to leave so I did not raise a big fuss and get arrested like Johnny Lawrence. hash brown poor service

There was this foul restroom odor when we walked in which really through us off but stayed anyway and now regret it. Service was okay but the food was just god awful. If youre used to cooking and eating seasoned food, stay clear if this establishment. I now remember why I dont go there often and will not be stepping another foot in one of these restaurants again. Only good thing they have is their 5$ margaritas..

Ordered food for pickup. It was later at night, so one of the few places still open. I saw bad reviews, but assumed it was complaints about the service which had little relevance to me. I got to the restaurant about 7-10 minutes before the estimated pickup time, and was pleasantly surprised that it was already ready. I had a 2 minute drive back to my hotel, and by the time I got back, all of the food was cold -- not even lukewarm -- indicating the food was not hot when I left the restaurant. No utensils were in the bag. I ordered pretzel sticks (which were soggy) and they failed to include the dipping sauces. I also ordered a cup of tomato bisque -- again cold -- and the cheese (that would ordinarily be sprinkled on top of soup) was far in excess of "a sprinkle" and had instead coagulated into a large clump at the bottom of the container. The croutons (included on the side) were soggy and had no semblance of "crunch". For someone who had been traveling all day and hadn't eaten at all, I was going to be pretty easy to please, but even with my low standards, they still managed to fall below them. Go anywhere else; don't waste your money here.

Terrible. Just terrible. Walked in at 12:15 for lunch. Completely empty restaurant. Asked the hostess to sit at the table by the window. She said "we don't have a server for this area." So she led me 9 steps away to a different table in the dark. I compliantly sit down. Wife arrives 3 minutes after me and we realize the booth has about 8 inches of space on her side. My wife is a drop dead gorgeous slender woman, but even she couldn't fit in there. Hostess is no where to be found so we move the 9 steps to the table by the window. That got her attention! She was there lickety split to tell us we couldn't sit there. To which I said "I'll find another table......at a different restaurant." This is why this place is empty. I give it six months before HQ finally shuts it down. I guess I will just have to relive my high school memories of fun trips to Applebees with friends in my mind....

Yes! I totally recommend this Restaurant. Today was our first time at this location and our server, Courtney was amazing. I was so surprised because she looks so young but she made us feel so welcome since the moment she walked to our table. She does have very good manners towards her customers. A quiet spirit but with a smile on her face in all times. She was very attentive with us, quick, and with a very good disposition to serve. Like very professional. I was very impressed on how a young lady knew how to behave and work with clients keep her sweet and quiet spirit. She must have a very good example at her house with her parents. Oh, and I have to mention dinner was delicious, hot, and fresh right on with the our young server!! - Claribel

Thy are so kind and they're food taste amazing highly recommend just some fly's flying around on people's food

Food was perfect fresh and made with love. Fast service from the girl who helped me with my order.

Had so much fun! Food, ambiance, and service was impeccable. JB was the bomb keeping the party going on and the music was fuego thanks to Kendren!!!! We will be back for more next week!

Valentine's Day they treated there customers bad had lots of open tables and seats at the bar the refused to allow them to be seated told us to get up an wait ...we left and received great service some where else

Horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the only thing worse than the food, drink and service is this yelp website!

There was hardly any customers in the restaurant and we still had to wait to be seated. We were seated next to a dirty table. We were there for about 10 to 15 minutes and no one came to take our drink order. There was no music playing out in the lobby/dinning area. You could hear everyone's conversations. While waiting, one of the workers walked out. The host cleaned a table, not the one we were sat next to, all the whole the kitchen staff had their music blasting and the servers were with them. After over 15 minutes, we just left. If I could leave 0 stars I would. Don't waste your time here. There was like 3 other tables being occupied in the entire restaurant and we still did t get attended.

First time coming here. Service was quick and friendly. Tried the bacon cheeseburger and was delicious. Everything was hot and served quickly. I will come here again. Very reasonable prices Oka..

we waited 20 minutes just to be seen by a host and people before us waited longer, then when we finally get a table our menus were sticky and wet and we weren't greeted for another like 15 minutes, and when we did order, we waited for our drinks for 40 mins and they came after we finished our meal and decided to cancel them. Service and cleanliness was overrall horrible.

Okay I see why they only what two stars. Because this is the EXACT reason I don't deal with these type of chain restaurants. Here we go...we enter this location and was barely greeted. Then, we were seated the waitress was taking a table of four and they were basically chatting it up (over the menu) she then left...we waited and waited still not greeted!! And WE WAITED. We then asked to be moved to a booth near the bar. The bartender did not greet us nor was she seeing customers. The table we were sat at was nasty no one came to clean it. And guess what the manager was at the bar and when we calmly complained about the lack of service they just looked at us like we were telling them dumbfounded the manager gave a blank apology. And our first waiter said "oh I didn't see y'all I was taking care of a table" yeah but the host when to tell you you had a table....and we still waited forever. IF you're going to act this way towards people, just get another job one that you'll enjoy and actually treat people with kindness and great service. UNACCEPTABLE!

Is no stars possible? Sat at the bar for 30 minutes before leaving. The person that was on shift left to checkout and no one came back. I don't even think it's legal to leave the bar unattended. Terrible place.

Came here today with my family after church, we arrived at 12:30 or so, we came in and got seated immediately there wasn't that much people in the restaurant. we got seated and a server came and asked for our drinks and then a new server came and served us from then, took about 35 minutes to order and for the food to arrive. i got the all you can eat buffalo boneless wings, my mom also got those, and my dad got the bourbon burger and my sister chicken tenders. food was hot and pretty solid, although they are understaffed so it's understandable that it takes a while for the food to come, Solid food no errors or misplaced orders, might come here again next sunday! although i would recommend that they change the inside of the restaurant, it looks pretty depressing, there's not enough natural light and the walls are different colors and it looks old. all in all, if you can wait a little and want some solid food come on here to this applebee's.

Honestly, anytime you eat at a nationwide chain restaurant, you are not looking for flavor or high levels of taste in their everyday menu items. On occasion, when a special, short time dish is offered, the people in the kitchen will awaken from their culinary coma and actual place more than a dash of spices on the dish. Well, this place does a couple of things right. I like the discounted rate given to military personnel on Mondays. I also like that after 10pm, appetizers goes to half price. They are open until 2am everyday, so if you just wish to dip off, late night, to a place where you will get the same old, same old taste from your dishes, then you do well going here. This particular location does have good service, free wifi and normally is really clean...even the restrooms.

PLEASE READ and BEWARE THEIFS!!! This location 19625 Restaurant Row Houston, TX 77084 claimed to be under staffed the day I visited. So I gave them a pass with the service being POOR !. But I completely take that back after me and my guest were charged multiple times for our order! . Called to see what the issue was and was told they were having a system problem and would be reversing the charges ! However this NEVER happened! They are unprofessional , liars, and cannot be trusted ! I will never step foot back in this location or any Applebee's for that matter if they are allowing this location to do this to people . ! I hope someone is held accountable for this !

Service was BOMB!! And the drinks were even better if that's possible! Kendron was pourin right and the tunes were bumpin the whole time! Will definitely be returning!

What a disappointment. I was enticed in by their massive email marketing for their new holiday cocktails. $5! Sleigh cocktails! One featuring The Rock's tequila.The sleigh cocktails were even posted on their front door. What better day to go then Thanksgiving. Well...I was informed they didn't have one of the two I wanted, which was a rita strawberry swirl; no margarita mix. Wth! That's the only reason I picked Applebee's for our meal. The actual meal was okay; nothing special. But I would have prefered dining at a place that also had the advertised cocktails. I ended up with a mango margarita for 8.99 (btw server told me it was 7.99) Talk about bait and switch. Never again Applebee's.

A lot better than what it use to be and what I expected. Great service even for our large party of 20.

Service and food was great, would definitely come back again. JB was an amazing server and will be coming back
