Applebee's Grill - Temecula

If you're in Temecula and looking for a satisfying meal for lunch or dinner, Applebee's Grill and Bar is a great choice. They offer a diverse menu with many delicious options to choose from. While the service was a bit slow, the staff was attentive, taking our orders accurately and providing refills for our drinks. I highly recommend trying the Triple Chocolate Meltdown for dessert—it's an irresistible treat that is sure to please anyone. Overall, I believe that Applebee's lives up to its reputation for being a great place to enjoy good food in the neighborhood.

The kids decided to try something new: the three cheese chicken penne. They said it wasn’t bad, but I’m not quite sure how to interpret that! Next time, I’ll give it a try myself and let everyone know. The service was fantastic; Kayla was incredibly sweet and fun! Thank you, Kayla, for being so patient with our rowdy table.

We visited Applebee's to try their two-for-$30 special and ordered the 8oz steaks, which come with two sides and an appetizer or salad. The salads were generous and flavorful. The mashed potatoes were excellent, but the broccoli was slightly undercooked and could have used some seasoning. The steaks were a decent size and flavorful, but unfortunately, they turned out to be a bit chewy and tough; we ordered one medium-rare and one medium. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the manager, Darrell, was particularly helpful—he even reduced our bill to express his interest in having us return. We've had good experiences here in the past and will come back, though we might skip the steaks next time. Overall, we'd rate this meal at 3.5 stars.

Got food poisoning Saturday night from this place. Put the cherry on top for a terrible experience. Bartenders on shift change, neither wanted to help. Sat there for 15 mins, one bartender finally asked the other “are they ready to order?” Food came out after waiting forever. No. Silverware, had to get up and ask someone for some. The attitude and lack of work ethic around that place is quite absurd. Leaving was the best time of the experience. Until middle of night when the sickness came on. Awful experience.

My family absolutely loves this place! The last time we went, they were pretty busy, but we still had fast and great service!
