Applebee’s

The weightier refused to let us leave with out giving a ten dollar extra tip. Luckily a manager was able to give our ten dollars back. The machine payment system is strongly annoying and once you start it is to complicated to end it. The service was horrible I said refill and get handed no soda only a check to pay.

I can see why the service is so slow and food compared to other fast food sit down places definitely not up to par. Tip is included already in check the waiters are nice but not attentive to your needs, and for NYC prices go elsewhere

We went there two days in a row for breakfast. We were seated right away. The staff was attentive and friendly.
I had western omelet and wife ordered veggie omelet with coffee. Food was well prepared and tasted good.

They place a tablet on your table but what they don’t tell you is that for every game that you play $ 1.99 will show up in your bill. There is also a gratuity of 18% included on the bill, and the food is bellow average compare to other Applebee’s. The only good thing about this place is that it’s amounts everytime empty

As soon as we walked in we were greeted with a smile and seated right away. The peach sangria was amazing!!! Waiter was very patient and attentive. We left our umbrellas there and when I called, about 30 mins later, they remembered who we were and had them waiting for us when we returned. Very gracious hostess! Would definitely go back, and definitely worth the try if you are in the NYC.

Food was fine. but priced 90% higher than normal Applebee’s. Out of whack even for NYC!
Oh. A FORCED MINIMUN TIP of 18%. Doesn’t matter how good or bad the service was.
Goodbye.

I think people who have reviewed this place previously probably aren’t used to NYC prices in general. No matter what chain restaurant you go to in NYC, do not expect the same prices as you would in NJ for example. They have to raise their menu prices because the rent is very expensive in order to operate in a times square building. So it’s fair game, just be prepared for your bill to be higher with the included gratuity. Then again if you don’t want to go to Applebee’s, go to another restaurant or fast food place or even a food truck to save money. The food was good in my opinion and the host sat me down immediately at a booth when I came in, and the waitress was friendly and courteous towards my friend who had a food allergy. Overall, good.

Why is this location so expensive ?? Must be cause it’s in NY, Applebee’s in CA is cheap as heck. We sat at the bar, there was no wait. The bartender was friendly and knowledgeable of the city– told us some cool local places to visit. Drinks were semi strong, food was OK, again too expensive, but I suppose you’re paying for the location. Nice view !

Excellent place, comfortable, nice crew, excellent breakfast and beverages. Good way to start day

We were on a vacation to NYC, in the theater district and had some gift cards to Applebee’s. It wasn’t terribly busy and we did get seated right away even though it was dinner time. Didn’t think there was much that could go wrong, but it was not a good experience.
The prices were not only much higher than a normal Applebee’s (Times Square, ok I get it), but on the high side compared to several GREAT local restaurants we had eaten at in the days preceding.
I ordered the cedar plank salmon with steamed veggies and mashed potatoes. When it came, the mashed potatoes were cold, not room-​temp, actually like out-​of-​the-​refrigerator cold. The bed of spinach that was supposed to be with the salmon was not there and I had to ask for it which when the server did finally bring it out came as two small leaves of spinach hardly even visible in the bowl.
Being very thirsty I had downed my water before our meal arrived and had never got a refill even thought the place was not super busy. And to top things off, our bill came with an 18% gratuity profiled in as part of the charge even though there was only 2 of us. It was kind of the final thumb on the whole experience. I won’t be going back.

Food was little bit too expansive, very simple plate, had ordered an American burger with sweet potato fries. But had still hunger after the meal. It was 20 $
Could be much better.

Way too overly priced and the portions are a joke. I completely understand that this is Time Square and things are pricey but come on… I at least expect to feel like I actually ate something if I’m going to spend so much money. I came here out of convenience due to the fact that it was close and I could not walk any further, but next time I’ll walk the few blocks it takes to find a decent place to eat. Applebee’s anywhere else is better than the one in Time Square. Only reason they get 2 Stars is for the friendly waiters and waitresses.

Horrible customer service with extremely overcooked «rare steak». I ordered a rare steak but it was overcooked, so the rude waiter looked at the steak and said that it was a rare (even though the steak was brown throughout).
Despite an argumentative waiter and poor customer service, the waiter shamelessly asked for additional tip.

Hello Happy April fools
Manella warmth and inviting presence just made my night. Just wish I could get service like this everywhere. Drinks came in under 3 mins and food order came under 10 mins Great job… great service! Thanks so much for making this a wonderful experience!

Abundantes y sabrosas raciones. Rapidez del servicio. Traen la cuenta sin pedirla. 35 dólares por persona aproximadamente

As I walked in they took great care of me and my friends. The location is super big. For being a chain restaurant in times square, it wasn’t crowded at all. The waitress was very nice. She took our order and offer us to change of table to a better one. They brought the appetizer first, super quick. Then 10 minutes later the main plates. We loved the fact that they brought everything super fast because we had limited time as we were waiting to se a movie on the cinema. The only reason why i did not chose 5 stars is because the waitres did not took care of out drinks very much. The food taste was Delicious, i ordered pasta (see picture) Also she dared to ask for a good tip when she brought the check. But everything else was pretty food compared to other locations.
I hope the picture is helpful to you guys

The food is way overpriced! The American burger is basically a standard cheeseburger with no extra flare. And it cost almost $ 20?! The burger wasn’t even big. The order also came with fries but the fries weren’t fresh. Even fast food restaurants make better burgers and fries. On the other hand, the shrimp scampi was slightly better. It came with a lot of shrimp but the scampi sauce was not tasty. The pasta also cost $ 20 and it wasn’t even up to par.
Service was slow and on top of that, the 18% service charge was already included in the bill. So expensive for an unsatisfying dining experience. If you’re price conscious like me, I suggest you don’t come here. You definitely won’t get the bang for your buck.

Chain restaurant that does breakfast and lunch
The one we ended up at was just around the corner from time square and it had a decent crowd given it was early morning for breakfast
I had the buttermilk pancakes and a friend had the waffle and another an omelette
The pancakes came out with some whipped cream and fresh fruit and a decent jar of maple syrup
Service was sharp
Free wifi

Arrived for a quick bite before our movie got started. We got seated right away (Saturday night, 5:15 PM). The service was prompt but the server didn’t check on us much. We had to flag someone down to get the check.
The shrimp Thai salad is a terrible value. Only a handful of small shrimp and light on the lettuce. At $ 20 it was disappointing. We also ordered crispy greens. They were salty but better once dipped in the aioli sauce, but at $ 10, also a bad value.
Food was decent, so was the service, but the prices were very high for the food served. Terrible value. $ 40 for a salad, crispy greens (deep fried green beans) and a soda. Not for the price conscious!

Worse breakfast we have had in the whole of New York
The service was was nothing short of appalling, the waitress, although wrote the order down brought us the wrong order. Even when setting the dishes down, and me prompting her it was the wrong way, she didn’t listen.
I asked for sausage and got bacon, when I finally got my sausage it looked like a dried, Childs turd! Very unappetising and seriously not what you would expect a sausage to look like!
Avoid!

I find it interesting how so many Applebee’s locations are rated so low. Luckily for me and the person I came with two Fridays ago, we were not disappointed because we had no expectations. In fact, we were overall impressed. We initially wanted to go to Dallas BBQ but the lines were long, so we came here spontaneously. I thought the service was alright — they let me charge my phone at one of the desks, and the people were pretty friendly. We got a seat by the window, and at night time, the lights in 42^nd street are very interesting to look at. I suppose we came on a good day at the right time.
Seeing as how I am a generally cheap person, I was happy when I saw on the menu, «Build your sampler: Mix & match any shareables, pub plates, or bar snacks. Choose any 2 for $ 15.99» … I still consider this pricey, though, so minus one star for that. So we chose 4 different pub plates to share between us. They were filling and good, and came out to $ 20 per person after tax and tip. Not bad at all. I will probably not come back in the future but I was definitely satisfied with my experience here.

«Die Küche des Applebee’s hat uns Überrascht. Sehr guter Geschmack bei Burger und Fleisch Gerichten, auch die frische von Salat, Fries etc. war Sensationell. Der Service war schnell und Freundlich. Das Restaurant war Sauber und gemütlich, es erstreckt sich über das Parterre und den 1. Stock. Die Auswahl an Gerichten, ist wie bei Applebee’s üblich, richtig gut. Ein Besuch hier lohnt sich allein wegen der günstigen Preise (für NYC) immer.

Pas terrible… Service lent, plat mal servi et peu copieux, pas digne d’un restaurent américain. D’autres restaurants valent beaucoup plus le coup. À éviter !

Wir waren bei Applebee’s am Times Square. Die Zutaten waren größtenteils frisch. Wir hatten nicht den Eindruck nur Conventient-​Food auf den Tisch zu bekommen. Leider bekommt man aber typische Riesenportionen die den Preis dann auch wieder rechtfertigen. Der Service war hier angenehm.

Applebee’s ist eine recht bekannte Restaurantkette in Amerika.
Ich war öfter in New Rochelle zu Gast, wo wir getrunken und gegessen haben, da es auch abends Cocktails und andere alkoholische Getränke dort gibt.
Es ist immer recht voll, aber selbst wenn man nicht reserviert wartet man meist nicht länger als 20 Minuten.
Die Einrichtung gleicht einem typisch, amerikanischen Diner, hat aber nicht den gemütlichen Flair, da es doch immer recht laut ist und alle Fernseher laufen. Witzig ist, dass man am Tisch eine kleine Lautsprecherbox hat, mit der man den Audiokanal der Sender einstellen kann, um auf dem passenden Bildschirm (es hängen etliche herum) das Fernsehprogramm zu verfolgen.
Die Bedinung wirkt immer etwas gestresst, daher auch nicht allzu freundlich.
Die Auswahl ist nicht ganz so groß, wie die Aufmachung der Lokale vermuten lässt. Es gibt Steaks, eine kleine Auswahl an Vospeiseplatten und diverse kleine mexikanische Gerichte.
Das Essen ist eher Durchschnitt. Die Vorspeisenplatten sind lecker, z.B. die mit Käse überbackenen Tortillas, dazu Dip oder die gemischte Platte mit einer Auswahl von allen Vorspeisen, Chicken Wings, Mozarella Sticks etc.
Die Hauptgänge dagegen sind eher fad und im gegensatz zu den Vorspeisen recht klein.
Besonders das Steak war wirklich klein, wie man ja auch auf dem Foto sehen kann. Dazu gibt es Kartoffelbrei (auf Wunsch mit Speck und sourcreme) und ein paar lieblos hingeworfene Brokkoli und Shrimps. Die Shrimps waren noch das Beste daran, der Kartoffelbrei hat geschmeckt als wäre er aus der Tüte und die Brokkoli nicht mehr allzu frisch.
Die Cocktails sind ganz in Ordnung, aber auch klein und demnach überteuert.
Die Preise für die Vorspeisen sind okay, nicht billig, aber in Ordnung, für die Hauptgänge allerdings wird zu viel Geld verlangt.
