Best WLM Reviews

This is unbelievable! 3.9 Stars. .This is the absolute BEST Applebee's out there!! Stuck up swine need to stop being jerks. Get real, people. This is the BEST Applebee's in the best location that I've been to yet in all of my extensive traveling, to deliver the food that you buy and eat, and everything else in between. So, if THIS were a 3.9 star location, I'd be the 2st to say it. Stop whining and enjoy your dinner. Super service here. I detest whiny swine. I can call you out by name if you prefer. Kis the best! So ask for her by the letter K
I cannot believe this Applebee's only has 3.9 stars. The food and the staff are wonderful Maine is a beautiful state. This is a 5 star location!
We just came home from the Applebee's located in North Syracuse, New York. It was a total bullcrap experience and the host was a total dick. Seriously, I almost laid him out. People in Maine are so nice. And KM was wonderful and kind server. Our server in North Syracuse was a 3 star. K was 10 stars. Be fortunate enough when you have a wonderful girl like K to wait on you. Please be kind and tip her like we did. She's worth the $30 tip. The girl in North Syracuse we gave a $10 tip to. You're tipped in accordance with your service and attitude. K IS the absolute best server that my beautiful wife and I have encountered in our many trips to Applebee's along the north east. She is a appitimy of what a professional server should be.
We absolutely Love "K"! Superb service from our very sweet server, "K". Food was absolutely delicious and the only staff here was great. The price was very good and we left with a full stomach. Next year we will definitely be back if the Lord's willing. No one is ever promised to live to see tomorrow, let alone today.
But we truly appreciate "K", who really helped make our experience all the more better with her knowledge of the menu, kindness(such a dear and sweet girl, very genuine) that was over the top, and willingness to quickly get a drink refill to us. She's the best in Portland Maine, that's for sure. She made our anniversary trip all the more pleasant. So ask for her when you visit Applebee's in Portland Maine. Oh, and it's extremely clean throughout the restaurant. VERY Important! 5 stars all the way!
Dylan did great for his fourth day, great service and personality, friendly and funny. I hope our group didn’t stress him out too much and he came back the next day lol, he genuinely did an awesome job. The four cheese Mac n cheese with honey pepper chicken tenders was very good and reasonably priced. The spinach & artichoke dip was very good. The rum buckets were great and Dylan gave us souvenir buckets with the Barcardi logo to keep which was really cool.
Went to the Portland, Maine location on Brighton Ave tonight, 11/16/24. Got seated, sat for over 20 minutes, watched other customers get orders taken, drinks delivered and one got their appetizer but we never had a sever come to our table. Finally gave up and left. Called and talked to the manager and was told they have a couple of new employees…. No other comment or apology, no I’m sorry about the lack of service, nothing. That says everything about the company, their management and employees. Basically a big F.U. to me, really classy.
I have no complaints about this restaurant site. When I went the place was very cleanly and the people were friendly. I asked the service staff to recommend a meal and I was not disappointed. The food was cooked perfectly. 10 out of 10 would go back
A group of us came into the establishment a little late with about an hour until closing. We are from Virginia and although we knew the time, it was the only place open that late. Maiah was our server and she served us with a smile and a great attitude. We appreciate the hot food and great service. Thank you!
Had dinner here with my brother, "Mouse". I really had superb boneless wings and service from the cute Blonde there. She waited on us and we lacked for nothing.
So whenever you get to Portland Maine, you make sure stop in and ask for Kam. Enjoy fine food at a still great price. Leave a good tip and try the pimo beer.
Went in for the all you can eat deal. Waited 20-30 minutes to place the second order service was not great. I even tried reaching out to the server to get their attention and they walked right on by. Not sure if I will come to this location again. I watched all the other tables nearby get service from another server or the same one I had.
We had a great experience. The food was very good, the service was great, and the small touches around the restaurant created a very pleasant atmosphere.
