Reviews for Applebee's Grill + Bar in Temecula, CA
Applebee?s has a great selection of meals even for the pickiest of eaters. The atmosphere is comfortable and pleasant. There is... sports on the tv?s and tablets with games for the kids. I experienced a steak that was undercooked to my liking and the waitressand manager fixed the situation immediately and went above and beyond. Malinda was our waitress and she was very friendly andhelpful. Highly recommend this location. Read more
It is the second time that I order the same salad that has strawberries, the first time I realized that they put too much onion... and I removed it from my salad, so this time I ordered my salad without onion and when I got home and opened my bowl of salad Ilooked again too much onion. Read more
So, let's start with the timeline of how things arrived.. party of 3, dine in for dinner.. Seated within minutes... 5 minutes... later drink order was placed. 5 minutes later TWO of the 3 drinks arrived. 10 minutes later the 1st of 2 apitizers arrived.. still no 3rd drink arrived. 5 minutes later one of us got their meal. . 3rd drink still hasn't arrived. moments later, 2ndappetizer arrived. a few minutes later 2nd guest meal was served, and moments later the 3rd meal... STILL no 3rd drink. Thirdmeal was prepared INCORRECTLY.. after retrieving the waitress, 3rd drink arrived.. but now he was done with his meal.... 5minutes more before the 3rd meal was corrected.. AFTER 2nd meal was close to consumed. Refill requested.. 2nd meal finishedbefore refill arrived... our little lady is now eating while everyone else is done.. if you think we're WAITING for adesert...?? NOT A CHANCE.. gonna be a LONG time before I come back... Read more
Here is the side of onion rings they gave us with our burger tonight. When I went back in and politely explained that there... wasn't much there, and asked if they could add a bit more, I was informed that that's just the size (5 onion rings) of theirside of onion rings (that they charge an extra $1.99 for). The to-go hostess did eventually, very begrudgingly, go and get threemore modestly sized onion rings from the kitchen, and informed me AGAIN, that "Just for future reference, that is just theamount the side comes with. We go by count, not weight, and you only get 5. Have a good night!" and started talking to thecustomer behind me, so I left since apparently the issue was resolved to her satisfaction. I get being busy, but that's not anexcuse to be rude to customers when they are unhappy with the tiny side you gave them, that they paid extra for. Read more
The food was excellent my fiance got the steak and I got a salad. Their chicken wings are always excellent. We saw our friends... for their 7 year anniversary and they also love it here. The manager was really nice and the waitress Alexa did a great jobwaiting our table. I highly reccomend! Read more
During the pandemic, this was my go to place. They stayed open late and had great value for exceptional product. What... happened? Seating was awkward. I was by myself so the hostess wanted to sit me at the bar which was ok but when the bartenderfinally arrived (after awhile) she seemed to be waiting for me to order a drink. No menu. Had to ask for one. *I got the 16ozrib eye. I ordered it medium. Not even sure what I got. It was half rare and half well. I'm guessing that they only used halfthe grill?? If that wasn't bad enough, about one third of the cut was gristle. Quality took a nose dive. I normally don't evenmind a little crispy gristle but it was just too much. No silverware. Then no salt and pepper. Had to ask for both. Mashedpotatoes was good and the green beans were good but this shouldn't even be a question. It's just the steak was so bad that thesides were the only thing that saved the meal. I also ordered a tall space dust beer. I'm thinking this bartender was newbecause she filled it wrong and left a giant head of foam on top. She was nice but yikes service and quality took a huge doubletwist 3 quarters flip into a belly flop. It hurt so bad I didn't even want to mention anything while I was there. Was almostembarrassingly bad. But, I guess if I'm only paying 25 to 30 bucks for a steak and a beer, I shouldn't be complaining. It'sjust that they were so good for the past year, I guess I got spoiled. I had to change my 5 star to 2. I can't sacrifice myintegrity for what they used to be. Read more
Absolutely love love love this place. The 2 for 27 menu is always worth the trip. The service is exemplary and the food is... amazing. Especially love the garlic mashed potatoes and the garlic green beans. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars isbecause they haven't figured out how to remove the calories from the chocolate cake and ice cream???? Read more
Happy hour is from 3 to 6pm & 9pm to close!! Came to enjoy a 5$ Adios and some good appetizers, check them out! ????
