"I love Applebee's, but I had a frustrating experience on February 3rd, 2023, at 6:30 PM. When I returned from the restroom, I found that my table had been cleared. I was still in the middle of my meal, and I had already paid $42.00 plus tip for my food and drink. I informed the server that I was still eating, but she insisted there was no food on the table, even though I had more than half of my meal left when I stepped away. It was disappointing to have my dining experience interrupted like that."
