Applebee's Grill + Bar

I brought my 3 grandsons with me today after leaving The Magic House. The food was delicious as usual and my server was very attentive without being annoying. I got the wonton tacos. OMG! I love those!

First time here. Former server and in hospitality. Came in at 5 on a Sunday. There was plenty of tables open, but waited 15 min for our 4 top. No big. People walking in after us were seated immediately. After being seated our table was very sticky and dirty. We asked if we could have a wipe or something to wipe the table down.

Needless to say, we ate one bite of everything, told our super sweet server that we just wanted out of this nightmare, and he reduced our bill by $25. We paid it and left because of anger and anxiety. The cocktails were good.
