"only at applebee’s for the first time in probably 8yrs, and it will be at least that before I go back. service was ok and was probably quite good by the latest standards (post covid.) that eating was extremely slow to get out of the kitchen about 30 min. I ordered the classic bourbon street steak medium rare. that was one of the worst steaks I ever had. it seemed to be boiled properly, but was so hard I could hardly cut it with a steak knife, let alone chewing it. I had made good steaks much tenderer. I could swallow some bits. the garlic potatoes were tasteless. my wife got the 6oz steak who wasn't better, although she managed to eat about 1/2 before she stopped. When the waiter brought the ticket, he asked if we wanted to crate when we said no and he barely touched the food, he did not want to ask if something was wrong. everything spent in all a good amount of money for terrible eating, for which we had to wait for a long time. only for the case that they wondered that the restaurant was full at less than 25%, so no apology for slow eating. Of course, going to mcdonalds is eating much better and that is very regrettable."
