Reviews for Applebee's Grill + Bar in South Boston, VA
Let me share the positive first. Ordered from the 2 for $25 menu and had oriental salad and my daughter had the chicken tenders.... The food was good. Had a red sangria and margarita and it didn't come until after the appetizer so well over 15-20 minutes forthe drinks. Now to the bad- the place smelled like urine to use a nicer term. They have a separate closed room for smokers somaybe that explains the old musty odor. After receiving our check the waitress preluded a question she to wanted to ask mydaughter and me and stipulated we didn't have to answer but she wanted to know why we came to South Boston. Understand we areand were at the time the only black people aside from the restaurant's cooking staff, so I didn't know how to answer thatquestion. My response was kind but later as my daughter and I discussed and ran it by others it appeared to almost indicate westood out and/or didn't belong in that restaurant. So for sure never returning and going forward if ever asked such a questionwhere a prelude to the question which indicates she must have known she was going to ask something inappropriate has to be madevs a simple "what brings you all to South Boston?"

Was really needing to refuel. I had the Bacon cheddar grilled chicken sandwich and it was perfect. If I was blindfolded and was... brought to a random restaurant and asked to eat the chicken sandwich I would have thought that I was at a very high scalerestaurant. I substituted the fries for the new waffle fries and they were also very very good! If you have not had the wafflefries, you need to try them they are very crispy and flavorful. There was really nothing about the food that I would change, andwould love to eat this every day. My waitress was amazing, and very friendly/energetic. I think her name was Christy but I?m notsure. Sharron, the Manager, was also awesome and very personable. She takes a lot of time to table touch and have smallconversations with as many customers as possible. I highly recommend this Applebee?s.

What a good place for a quick meal! The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is cool!
I visited this restaurant for my birthday and all I can say is the experience was amazing. The waitress was very kind and the... food was amazing. The store was kept clean and the employees were never standing around doing nothing they were constantlycleaning or helping others out. I truly hope that y'all keep up the amazing work because I will be back again. Read more
Service took FOREVER! There was a much larger party seated after us that was served and left before we even got our check.... Everything took 10 times longer than it should have. And no they weren't very busy. Read more
My friend and I went to Applebee's Friday at 12:00 to celebrate our birthday. It was my first time. We each got a half a... slab ribs which our waitress told us that they were 2 for 20.00 . We got a Pepsi for 4.00 each. Anyway , my friend got up andwent outside and I was.given the bill. I almost fell over. I am disabled, battling ovarian cancer, Rheumatoid Arthritis. Ican't afford these prices. It was pretty good. The ribs were dry. I won't be eating at Applebee's anytime soon. Thank u foryour kindness. Sincerely, Sheila Norris Read more

Do not recommend!! Read more
They simply have no structure. There is not enough help and seems to be lacking leadership and drive. Waiting too long to be... seated in a near empty restaurant. My food wasn't the best. Read more
