Applebees Grill + Bar - Wilkes-Barre (PA)

5 /5 Max Amplitude: Visited on a Monday evening, the classic cheeseburger was delicious and juicy. Fries were very good too. Overall a nice and relaxed environment. A++++++

5 /5 Haley Rios: We had the pleasure of Charity serving us. She was so personable. She quickly noticed an issue and insisted on fixing it. She was amazing and hope to come back soon and have her again!

1 /5 mackenzie Weller: Honestly I’ve just had the worst service here. The hostess was very friendly, but my server Kaityln was the exact opposite. From the start, she was very unwelcoming. She was also slightly rude and very inattentive. She asked me if I wanted another lemonade, took my cup, and was gone for about 10 minutes. When she returned, she didn’t even have my lemonade, looked at me and said “is there a problem”. Once I told her she forgot my lemonade, she just said “oh yeah”, didn’t even apologize. I attempted to ask her for extra dipping sauce, but she was so quick to turn away that I had to get her attention again before she left again. She was just overall a bad server and I was honestly disappointed. The manager seemed to be checking tables, but did not come to ours. I honestly feel so bad asking for a manager, but thinking about my service, it just had to be known. Im really understanding about having an “off night” but our server just seemed really cold and harsh towards us, but friendly with her other tables. Would not want her as a server again.

5 /5 Darren Stritzinger: After a fairly busy Saturday, we decided on a whim to dine at Applebees for dinner, and were pleased that we did. We arrived in the late afternoon/early evening and we were seated immediately in the moderately crowded restaurant. Our server was extremely pleasant, and brought our drinks promptly, and allowed us some time to choose from a varied menu. For appetizers, we ordered Brew Pub Pretzels and Beer Cheese Dip, and a bowl of tomato basil soup. The former consisted of four soft and hot pretzel sticks with the dip and a side of delicious honey mustard sauce. There was plenty of dip available even after the pretzels were devoured. The soup was also delicious and highly recommended. The main entrees were pretty good. The 4-cheese Mac and Cheese with honey pepper chicken strips was adequate, but somewhat bland. I had to really mix up the pasta, as all the cheese sauce rested at the very bottom, and I didnt even taste the pepper flavor on the strips, which had more batter than chicken. Once the pasta was tossed, cheese sauce was more pronounced and saved the meal otherwise. The Oriental Grilled Chicken salad was decent, but unlike the pasta, was a tad salty. Strawberries were added, which fortunately offset the saltines, and again, turned out to be adequate. If there were a 3½ star rating, I would have chosen that. Overall, the meal was decent, but some improvements could be made. We didnt regret our dining choice, but with a lot of competing restaurants in the immediate area, we probably wont visit again for a while.

5 /5 Chloe Maddox: Our server Gabby was amazing. We were out celebrating and she made sure to make the night great! She was so attentive and great with her recommendations. Overall we had a great night and the food was absolutely delicious! Hope to be back soon.
