Best WLM Reviews

They close at 12 my friend were hungry we couldn’t find anywhere to eat and when we came in, it was at 11 I was afraid they might not let us in it that they would not treat us well since it was last hour despite that the waitress was Nice and so where all the people that were doing the closing stuff. Thank you so much for being so kind. ❤️ I’ve had a long day and they just made feel better after. Oh and the food was warm and good I enjoy it so much ????????.
The server was very friendly but the person greeting customers at the door not so much. We waited 30 minutes to be seated even though place was not busy. The food was good but we felt quantities were a bit small.
I am only giving one star because our food was amazing and our server deserves a raise- 7-16-24 @7:28pm- Our server Ryan was amazing considering the circumstances. However, the dining room was absolutely filthy, tables were dirty and full of dishes, they had two waiters taking care of the entire dining room and also bartending. They had customers eating with plastic forks because they didn’t have any clean silverware. Washing drinking cups as they go because there weren’t any clean cups available. All of this going on while two managers (Sabrina and Ory) sat and did nothing. One was socializing for over an hour with a regular and the other day and ate food. I am a manager at place of business and I could never imagine sitting around while all of this was happened. Applebees you should be ashamed of yourself!!!!
Drink was well blended and food was delicious. Waitress was polite and wonderful. Thanks blue hair girl you the best at staying calm in time of business. Thanks for great time and endless boneless wings and plenty of fries. Line cooks and chef made food to perfection
We got in around 2 pm no line and seated right away. It wasn't messy or too crowded. My boyfriend was antsy and kind of just wished someone would have gotten our drinks out a bit quicker but I was more patient. He ordered an appetizer and someone else brought it out and gave extra napkins. We were able to finish the boneless wings appetizer without feeling rushed by the time our meals came out. Both of meals were delicious and we cleared our plates. Only complaint there is that they didn't stay warm for very long( and we aren't slow eaters ). But it's okay though, not going to stop me from going there! We both left so full!
Wow! Service (1 star)
How it started: Since the time we got seated to the time someone came to take our order was no lie 45 minutes. The bartender was our waitress and she said that she did not see us smh. A guy at the bar had to tell her that we were here at a table waiting to be served. ( 1 star)
We got a drink that was the a special they had for Halloween. It was not that great.
We ordered the bourbon shrimp and chicken with garlic mash potatoes. This was actually very good. The chicken was very moist and tender.
Also the lemons were old and slimy
Our server Alexis is excellent. She is top-notch one of the best at this location. I love to sit in her section when she is here I will sit and no one else’s. I’m sad when she’s not here.
Placed a to go order today Friday Nov 22 at around noon-1 o'clock for Holly Hemsworth. When I got home and opened 1 of my to go's I was hit in the face with a moldy mildewy smell. Caught a wiff instantly. Upon further inspection I realized the mashed potatoes that went with my steak were completely mildewy. They were so bad they made the whole plate of food taste awful. The green beans, my steak, everything tasted like a wet basement. The potatoes were so bad I instantly spit them out! Called and asked to speak to a manager, and I got "Ory" on the phone. She instantly told me I was pretty much lying. Her response to me getting served moldy mashed potatoes was, "I've been eating the mashed potatoes for months, all the time, and there's nothing wrong with them." I asked her if she thinks the mashed potatoes she's been eating "for months" are the same batch of mashed potatoes I got in my to go. (Wouldn't surprise me with what I was served) ????‍♂️ but probably not... I pleaded with her to go too the kitchen and taste them because they're so bad they ruined my entire plate of food. She insisted she did taste them, and there's nothing wrong. In the end, I told her I'm calling the health department. She's completely indenial. She's lying to customers on the phone. There's no way she went and tasted them and didn't taste the mold. They're so bad it made my green beans and steak taste bad. I mean I can smell it from 2 feet away as its sitting on my kitchen table. In the end, she said she's refunding me for the order and hung up on me. Didn't make me feel like she was taking care of the issue at all though. Pretty much told me I'm wrong when I'm a chef myself and I know for a fact they're moldy. I guess it won't be until someone gets sick that she will care. You would think she gets paid a salary and has a brand new model s tesla outside paid for by applebees the way she completely denied my complaint and told me I was wrong. Like the way she argued with me, you could swear she owned the applebees. Like why would I call and complain and lie? The woman is going to end up getting people sick because she's indenial when it comes to the restaurant she's managing. I couldn't imagine being a manager and having a customer call me and tell me my establishment's food is moldy, and I just completely disregard the customers complaint. She didn't give me any closure at all that she was going to take care of the issue to ensure customers do not get sick. Called the health department since "Ory" rather argue with me and tell me I'm wrong. I told "Ory" it's either A.) SHE'S LYING, and she never went to the kitchen and tasted the moldy food she's serving to good paying customers... or B.) She doesn't have a pallete. Regardless, I'll never be back. "Ory" needs to step down from her management position and let someone else manage the restaurant. Customers served mildewy food are not going to be happy, and they might have an attitude. It's part of working in customer service. People aren't going to be happy when served moldy food. She matches the customer's energy and gets just as upset as the the customer who just paid for mildewy inedible food! She's not fit for the job. And obviously doesn't care if customers get sick from moldy food. Never again. Good to know that if you go to this establishment and get served food that could potentially get you sick, that this is how they rectify the situation. The refund is irrelevant at this point. How about customer's health?
