Applebee's reviews

The GM at this location is a HUGE problem. He's not from this country (India) and likes to "train" which basically means getting in your face and being highly confrontational in front of other employees. This is by no means a way to manage anyone. The patrons here stiff you quit often - even on tabs that run is excess of 150.00 which means you lost money because of their ill-fated policy of tipping out based on sales. Employees are smoking weed outside, bringing in booze (and they are only 18), coming to work stoned if they come in at all, and the morning manager and GM know about it but do nothing because no one wants to work there and they need servers. They violate TABC rules and place their bartenders in jeopardy by refusing to address the issues of 18 year old kids coming in the place with outside alcohol and putting it in the Applebees to go cups. There is a gang like culture with the employees....they curse right in front of customers. It's just the most ruined place I've ever seen.

Applebee's undervalues their products by giving so many drinks/meals away with coupon's or for a 1$. This makes it harder for a server/bartender to feel valued or for the guests to treat the experience with value.
