I am a foodie and only stopped at Applebee's in Brooksville Florida to eat with no intentions of writing a review or a blog on this restaurant. I ordered Bourbon Steak Medium Rare and without a doubt this was the worst steak in America . I’ll be generous to say that they did a fine job with the ice water. As for the steak, it was absolutely without a shadow of a doubt the worst piece of meat I ever saw on a plate. It was as if Applebee’s purchasing department found the toughest cow in the pasture, put it on a treadmill for a few months to get rid of any tenderness or flavor, and waited for it to die of old age. Then they took the sick joke even further and sent it to my local Applebee’s, cooked it to a charcoal briquette and put it on my plate!. I sent the steak back and explained it was super tough and the whole meal had a horribly unpalatable flavor.The caramelized onions were crunchy and the potatoes were hard and had an ugly black color. I sent it back and they recooked the same steak making it even tougher than it was to begin with but now burnt to a crisp and obviously NOT Medium Rare. So I sent it back yet again and was sent a new steak sizzling on the plate that was super well done and NOT Medium Rare as I had originally ordered and just as horrible as the first steak . The management acted like they had done me a favor to take this nasty steak off my bill. I had ate at a Waffle House the day before and the Waffle House steak blew away the Applebee's steak .I have learned though a very reliable inside source that Applebee's uses prepackaged steaks that come in a plastic bag just like the nasty steaks the meat guys sell out of the freezers on the back of pickup trucks. So the bottom line is if you as a consumer are okay with eating meat soaked in preservatives and seasoned so much that you cant taste the embalming fluid style preservatives that are being sold at a premium price then Applebee's is the place for you and your family. However if you demand quality and freshness at a premium price for you and your family then Applebee's is not the place for you. I would suggest that Applebee's should be boycotted until they get back to basics and serve Americas family's the quality product they charge them for and promise to serve them on there misleading commercials.

Food,Service

We enjoy getting good food and service. We are always greeted with a smile and they open the door. We have a good time going there. Service is great since they improved with the waitresses. if we can't find her there is a machine on the table and we touch it, and she comes to the table sap.
