  I read the previous posts and was excited to try this Applebees in hopes it would break the mold of our bad experiences we have had in the past at the chain...
  It broke the mold all right...unfortunately it was in the other direction we were hoping for.
  Great atmosphere but that was about it.
  We had to wait a good ten minutes after receiving our drinks before our waitress returned to take our order. (It was not busy so it was not that she was ultra busy with other tables.) once we finally received our meal it went truly downhill.
  My kids food was excellent...should have ordered off the kids menu!
  I ordered the steak stir fry. I ordered the steak Medium and she told me that they usually cook it well per the recipe for the taste but she would ask...the steak was burnt. It also was cold and the rice was not done....it wasn't chewy, it was hard. They brought my husbands grilled chicken and shrimp out about five minutes after everyone else...a piece of grilled chicken....no knife. When he asked the woman who brought out the food for a knife she said they were washing in the back. ????? How do you expect someone to eat a piece of uncut chicken? However, we should have seen this as a blessing in disguise. After waiting so long that his once sizzling plate wasn't sizzling anymore our waitress popped up and asked if we needed anything. We asked for a knife once again and got one! Yea! He cut the chicken and took a bit and made a face... I took a bite and immediately spit it out...the chicken was bad. Not horribly seasoned...bad, past the date, tainted and gross. The manager came by, we told he what was wrong and we asked her to please take our two meals off the ticket and we would just pay for the kids. Instead of being apologetic, she said, "Oh, ok" and left. No "I'm so sorry" nothing.
  Needless to say we went home and ate cereal which was much tastier that the meals we left.
  Will not return and instead of helping out our past experiences with Applebee's, this one made our decision stick and we won't be back! ☹️️

  After a week of 5 Mondays...We went to Applebee's for dinner. The food was good. I got the steak salad and hubby got the nachos. The best part of the meal was the server. Tatum was extremely pleasant, he joked with us. Never did we feel rushed to give him our order. Excellent server. If you go to the Applebee's in Mooresville, be sure to ask for Tatum.
