Applebee's Grill - Goshen

My husband and I went to Applebee 's last night. Food, service, and cleanliness were all terrible. First of all, every surface was sticky, especially the floor ramp and the handrails. We were afraid to touch anything. Second, the waitress didn 't know much about the food she was serving. I ordered the steak and shrimp, but told her I didn 't want the cheese on it (due to dietary restrictions . When it came covered in sauce, she told me that wasn 't cheese, it was Parmesan sauce. I scraped off the cheese, tried one bite, and it was tough and chewy. (I ordered medium rare. . My husband tried a bite too and said it was inedible. The mashed potatoes were cold. I gave up and asked to just bring me a cup of coffee. Server said they didn 't have coffee no coffee maker! WTF! This has to be the only restaurant in the county that doesn 't have coffee! We paid the bill and went straight across the street to get some fast food. I honestly don 't know how this place stays open! Avoid it!!

I have to say, lunch was really good today. They've gotten some fairly critical reviews, but we didn't note anything negative. Had the pretzel appetizer and crispy chicken salads. Then the Cinnabon desert. Which was stellar. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive.

The waitress was very nice and had a sense of humor. The service was spaced just right. The food was just right

I have been consuming the oriental chicken salad for many many years. It was always my favorite thing to order and now it is horrible. They've gone from a beautiful chicken breast that was highly seasoned and placed nicely on top of the bed of romaine lettuce, two little squares of pressed chicken that has no flavor on top of a tiny bit of romaine with almost all head lettuce. It's like eating a bowl of water and rubber. The only thing that made it tolerable was that I had 2 cups of dressing which I was able to use all of to get some flavor when normally all I have to do is a half of a cup. I will never get the salad again and likely never eat at Applebee's either because if they're going to dumb down their food like that and raise the price of it, it's not worth it.

I was immediately seated at the bar as I requested. The hostess and bartender were both very friendly. I ordered a Lagunitas IPA to drink. The beer is great and I didn't have to wait. I ordered a grilled Chicken Caesar Salad. It arrived quickly and everything looked and tasted great. I would recommend this Applebee's!
