    Great food and service.

    We usually visit Applebees because we love eating their oriental chicken salad, but we were disappointed with the taste. We believe that the quality of the ingredients have changed, giving the salad a stale and cardboard taste to the crunchy noodles that get placed on the salad. They also had tough pieces of fried chicken that tasted weird. The onion rings were good. Not sure if we will be returning.

    Ate lunch with family we had Kyrstyn as our server who was totally awesome and one of the better servers I have encountered in my experiences at restaurants. We got the all you can eat boneless chicken, ribs and double crunch shrimp for $15 which is a great deal and was good food. The atmosphere was pleasant and we just all around couldn't ask for a better lunch experience. Thanks Kyrstyn and Applebee's on Eua Gallie Blvd of Melbourne Florida! 😁

    Plenty of parking and the appetizers came out quickly and warm ! The chips and salsa was a plus! Had a burger and a beer and the service was very polite. Total was around 30 dollars not including tip.

    Sara M was such a great server and even got me dessert and sang Happy Birthday to me when my mom mentioned my bday! Thank you !!!

    The place was ok but old. The waitress was forgetful. Like, no silverware. When I went to the ladies room, my feet stuck to the floor. The cheese sticks were so freaking chewy. I felt like I was eating an eraser. And the AC vents from the filthy ceiling, were covered in nasty crap, right over the diners tables.
