Rating: - Erica and Chris’ review of Applebee’s in Columbus on Sunday November 9, 2008.

Applebee’s - 3894 Morse Road, Columbus, OH 43219 - (614) 337-8230

Good

We took advantage of the 2 for 20 special going on right now. That was a great value. We got an appetizer and 2 full serving entrees for $20. For the appetizer we got the Boneless Wings (Honey BBQ) and those were absolutely wonderful.  By far the best I have had at any Applebee’s restaurant before, and maybe the best I have had anywhere. Erica got the Fiesta Lime Chicken, and I had a bite of it, and it tasted wonderful as well, and she was very pleased with it.

Bad

I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger. That was one of the worse cheeseburgers I have ever had. It was dry and very over cooked, I asked for medium. The fries were OK, but nothing special. The bacon on the burger was also dry and over cooked. I will never be ordering a cheeseburger from there again.

The service was pretty slow. The waitress seemed friendly but there were many times we were waiting on drink refills and the food took a long time to get. It’s hard to say if they were under staffed or if it was the fault of the waitress, but I would lean towards under staffed for the night.

The atmosphere was less than desireable. We were in the middle of the restaurant away from the doors and it was still cold. We were surrounded by 4 tables, all having little kids, and although 3 of the 4 tables’ kids were very well behaved, the booth directly behind me had a screaming kid literally 2 feet away from my head… OPK…
