Had a really great experience at the Applebee’s in Shirley. Joe the manager is awesome always smiling :) super friendly, always checking in, and really makes sure everything runs smoothly. Monica behind the bar was amazing too, super personable, quick with drinks, and just had such a good attitude the whole time. They both made the atmosphere so much better and you can tell they actually care about their customers. This is definitely one of those places you come back to because of the people. Will for sure be back!

The service was terrible, rude and clueless...it took a while to bring cutlery and napkins and he didn't respond in a friendly manner, the place is nice and its variety of dishes and prices but no one wants to pay and receive bad service...bathrooms a little neglected and there weren't even that many customers due to the bad service and neglected bathrooms... as diners and clients we went out to have a good time, enjoy good food and above all receive good service. We pay for quality, we deserve it , They even left us the bill receipt lying on the table without its usual folder that should hold the bill...every detail counts in a restaurant, we pay for experience...and good times

This Applebee’s is probably the nicest one I’ve ever been to! Went as a large group for lunch, and didn’t call ahead (apologies wasn’t my idea!) but they were very accommodating and everything still came out fast. The food was very good, and as I mentioned did not take long from order time to table. Portion sizes are also very large for the price! Looking at $10-$20 per person without drinks. (Average for our group was about $15 before drinks) The waitress was very nice, and spent an appropriate amount of time checking on our table to refill drinks and see if we needed anything. Never felt like I had to ask for anything, and also served everyone a water which I always think is a nice touch. Overall, great spot to grab lunch. The deals they have during the week also make it a great spot to

I don’t visit Applebee’s often — it’s usually a once-in-a-blue-moon treat for me — but I’ve always enjoyed dining in because the meals taste their best that way. Now that I dine with my two boys (4 and 2), our table is usually loud, lively, and entertaining for everyone around us. I appreciate how hands-on the manager is with both the team and the customers. Years ago, I found that a bit unusual, but now I genuinely like seeing leadership involved. Our waiter was also very friendly and kind to my boys, which I truly appreciated. My only critique is around team communication. It seemed like there was a disconnect between the waiter and the server. My waiter reassured me that all our food wouldn’t come out at once, but the server delivered everything back-to-back. With two little ones reac

Service and food are amazing. I go here every week and get served by either Justin, Tom or Kevin all are attentive and respectful. Kitchen manager Joe takes pride in his work and the results coming out of the kitchen show, I’ve tried every Applebees on the Island and Id say this is by far the best one.
