We went into the Applebee's location in Marion around 7 PM on a Thursday evening, after dinner rush. We were quickly shown to a clean booth, and served our drinks.We ordered, and our appetizer, onion rings, arrived after only a short wait. They were still hot, but not fresh out of the fryer. They were crispy, not overdone, and went well with the paired barbecue sauce. They were satisfactory.Our orders arrived. I ordered the chicken broccoli alfredo. My husband ordered a full rack of baby back ribs, with French fries and cole slaw. Both arrived warm. They were not hot.We were hungry, so we began eating anyways. The sauce on the ribs was flavorful, and they were tender, but somehow it didn't permeate the meat. It was a strange disconnect. The fries were salt bombs. The cole slaw, in a small sauce cup, was really the star of the plate.My chicken broccoli alfredo had odd temperature variations. My first bite of chicken was cool in my mouth, my first bite of pasta was the right temperature. When I mixed it all together, it became adequately warm. The flavors were adequate. It was alfredo. I would order it again, if it were delivered hot.Yes, we could have sent the food back, but neither of us had eaten that day, so we ate. We did not finish the French fries. There wasn't enough tea or mountain dew in the restaurant to wash down all the salt.We ordered dessert, the triple chocolate thing. IT was amazing. It was the high point of the meal, a great mix of hot (actually hot), and cold, the delicious vanilla ice cream, along with rich chocolate pudding. This dessert is absolutely a home run.I have eaten at other Applebee's. They have given me better meals. Maybe this was a bad night, but this meal wasn't up to the standard I've come to expect from Applebee's other nearby restaurants.It can be better.
Great service good burger and fries wifes southwest chicken salad looked delicious
Other then my Wife's Medium-Rare steak being Well Done, they rest of the food was exactly as it should have been. The server was real friendly but forgetful at the same time. 4⭐ out of 5 for those reasons.
We had the combo appetizer platter & the New crispy cheese bites...the cheese bites are amazing!!! Then we tried the New VDay drinks - Tipsy Cupid & Date Night. Both drinks are so yummy!!!!
Prompt service and attentive wait staff. Quesadilla burger never disappoints! French onion soup well made and delicious!
I actually was the DoorDasher, for the very first time! The greeter was very prompt, friendly, and extremely helpful. The restaurant wasn't very busy, and it had plenty of available seating for anyone ready for the dine-in experience. The mood lighting was set to dim, and it had a bar ready to serve. I would recommend the 5 p.m. time zone through the week for a quick seating and ordering! Bon Appétit!

Food was good. Very busy place, and that might have had something to do the forgetfulness of the server, but i wasn't really impressed.
Our waiter was amazing. Very helpful and so kind. Even with them being out of items on the menu hr was so quick to offer suggestions. Amazing service and amazing food! ?
Very good food and good service thank you for the afternoon
