Applebee's Grill + Bar

Food wasn't all that great. Appetizer portions were small & expensive. Do not recommend.

We had a great time and great service, our waitress was Bree, she was a lot of fun. My husband loves the all you can eat chicken, shrimp, and riblets deal that is going on.

This is the best Applebee's I have ever been to. The managers are awesome, and therefore the employees seem very happy. The place is run very well and the food is always spot on. The waiters & waitresses are excellent. Typically, we arrive with our four kids and they always have a great time here. This is what Applebee's is supposed to be, just a good neighborhood eatery. Other restaurants should use this place as a model for how to treat their customers. If you think I am going overboard, just go see for yourself.

Manalapan Applebees is the best casual chain restaurant in the Monmouth/Middlesex area. The food is excellent and the menu offers a nice variety of options. What really sets this location apart, however, are the superb staff and fast efficient service.

I always enjoy eating here (2 to 4 times per month). I was especially surprised and happy when I was told on this visit that my meal would be free because they were honoring veterans for the holiday. The people here make each meal feel like a neighborhood get together. I really like the place.

This is one our favorite places to go with the family. We always have a great experience, but at our last visit our server Jessie E went above and beyond for us. She was very knowledgeable and able to answer all our annoying questions about the menu happily. Even though the restaurant seemed busy, the wait time was great and the food tasted awesome as always. Highly recommend this place.
