Applebee’s

Came with a group of 6 and didn’t have a wait around 5:30 on a Saturday. Typical Applebees.

Just had the Thai shrimp salad with some tomato basil soup and it was great. Nice location. Service was very prompt as well

Sarah C. Was absolutely amazing ! Above and beyond expectations and superb customer service. I work in a consumer based business and would hire her in a heartbeat ! Perfection!

Cool franchise restaurant and bar, 2 for $ 20 deal is great, selection of food is good. Been here after 10 for ½ price apps also. Good family place, not so much for singles who want to meet up.

Applebee’s — this is the place my kids always beg to go to. Why? they absolutely love their kids meal selections. You can get Mac and Cheese, big kid mac and cheese with breadcrumbs and chicken! French Bread Pizza, chicken tenders, Chicken grillers etc. The part they love is the yogurt with apples and the apple sauce go go squeezes. Great great sides for kids. It also keeps them away from the french fries — when we are here they don’t even ask for them!
For the adults, they have an ever changing menu. We tried the new shrimp appetizer — it was very good. Lightly tempura battered with a light spicy sauce. Very good.
My husband had his ‘ol faithful’ — Chicken Fajita Rollup and i had what was the old Tequila Lime Chicken — but aye they are family friendly so now we call it the Fajita Chicken :) Yummy to say the least.
Service was good — she wasn’t the most talkative server and didn’t make any recommendations. She was on top of the refills of drinks and did let my children order which sometimes servers do not like. Overall, i would recommend this Applebee’s!

My Wife & I just had dinner there. I had the Triple Hog Dare Ya. It wasn’t all that. Not much pulled pork, slice of bland ham, the bacon was ok. The bbq. sauce over powered it. The waiter never offered more French fries to which there wasn’t a lot either. It was supposed to be free refill of fries.
My Wife had the Citrus Chicken with rice which she thoroughly enjoyed.

Applebee’s has come a long way but they’re food has gotten better and tastes really great! Love the change!

I love this Applebee’s service, the food is great I recommend the French onion soup I have everyday for lunch and dinner.

Favorite Applebee’s location. Great staff! Never had a problem all of the times I have been there. It’s refreshing to know that some corporate restaurants can do a good job.

Love this place! Always good food! Good Service! Good Prices! What’s not to like?

Our waiter was super nice and went above and beyond to make sure my friends and I had a good night!

They discontinued the All you can eat Soup and Salad at lunch. Very disappointing…

We eat at this Applebee’s location frequently. I have had a pretty good experience and find they are very accommodating to parties with small children (we have 2 year old twins) The servers generally ask if we would like the children’s meals with the appetizers or with the meals. In addition to the server, we usually find that a manager is also checking if things are good with each tables. Many times we also use the car side to go service and find the meals ready on time and well packed. We have not experienced the poor service others have noted.

Went here for the first time last monday night for the football game and apparently thurs night football, sunday night football and monday night football during the game its half price apps, food was great and waitress we had was also very nice to us and treated us great.

We enjoy going here for the late night menu and usually have great service while sitting at the bar.
I also, always feel welcomed by the hosts, they are right there to greet you and open the door, which I think is a great way to start and end your experience in a restaurant.
The other night we came in for dinner and sat at a table and had awful service. My boyfriend and I both have working the food industry and are generally pretty understanding, however, the server we had was very unattentive and it wasn’t busy at all. She did not bring us a single item. We waited almost 10 minutes to be greeted, when she did come over we gave her our entire order and thats the last we saw of her until AFTER our food came out. We had drinks from the bar, waters, appetizer and entrees brought out by different people. When she «checked in» after we had gotten our food, we asked for extra napkins and never got them.
I am truely dissappointed because we do enjoy going to this location because it’s close to our house. We will most likely continue to visit for the late night menu but will not sit in the dining area any more.

Went again for All you can eat Salad/​Soup/​Breadsticks. Soup is good but service was so bad, It took 20min for first serve and then had to wait another 20 min wait to refill soup. House salad came with Bacon first time and Bacon disappeared in second serving.

We usually don’t eat at this location because of the poor service we’ve had in the past. We made the mistake, though, of trying again last week. The service was poor. It started with a less then welcoming welcome by the hostesess. We had seven people and wanted to sit four and three since it was my daughter’s birthday and she wanted to sit «alone» with her friends. The hostess obviously didn’t want to do that and made it pretty apparent. She offered to sit us at a booth for six and put a chair in the aisle. She finally decided that she could accommodate us, but made sure we knew she was doing US a favor.
When we sat down, we waited 45 minutes until we got anything to eat. We ordered salad and an appetizer — that’s what took 45 minutes to come out.
While we waited for our meals, several «runners» came by out table to ask us if the food they had was ours. Really?
When the food finally came out, it wasn’t very good.
I understand that I’m eating at a chain and I don’t expect fine dining at Applebees. We do eat at Applebees because we have kids and everyone can find something they like. I don’t dislike the chain.
This location, however, is the pits. I should have followed my instincts, but we were all really hungry and this was the closest place.
The Hackettstown Applebees isn’t far away, about 10 or 15 minutes. I’ve always had a good experience there — better food and much better service. If you are going to eat at Applebees, do yourself a favor, don’t go to the Mount Olive location.

The chain bills itself as your «Neighborhood Grill and Bar» but shouldn’t a place committed to a community worry about customer service? The service and food are so inconsistent it’s almost funny. We never knew what were going to get & the cost doesn’t make up for being served the wrong food, still frozen food or burned food. Adding insult to injury is being made to wait over an hour for the kids chicken fingers! We could have gone to MickyD’s down any street, brought the bag back and eaten at the table. We have had our meals comped for their mistakes but how many times does it take to get the formula right? I’m tired of hit or miss service and lousy food and will never set foot in one again. This review applies to the chain. We have eaten in Hackettstown, Mt. Olive, Newton, Parsippany etc…
