Applebees is my (now) 12 year old’s favorite restaurant so, like every year, we went there for his family birthday meal. We started (as usual) with 2 sharing appetizer platters between the 4 of us which is always delicious but this time came with a spinach and artichoke dip that i had never seen before (it went well with the quesadilla). The service was fast and polite as usual and the main course (a salad for my wife, a 12oz NY Strip for me, nuggets for my daughter and baby back ribs for my son) was equally delicious. The deserts are always the highlight of applebees my key lime pie was fantastic, my wife’s sundae was stellar and the kids’ oreo sundaes are the reason we go each year. Great family fun. The only bad point was that my son didn’t get the birthday special because we ate on the weekend before his special day, this was annoying and caused a small argument between me and a waiter (my son didn’t seem to mind the absence of a song though).
