Review by Brendan Terry

September 30, 2024

I hadn't visited an Applebee's in ages, but I was pleasantly surprised by my recent experience at the one on Balboa Ave! 🌟 Our server, Rihito, was incredibly attentive and friendly, which made the night even better.

We couldn't resist their happy hour, especially the chicken wonton tacos and the piping hot spinach dip. The honey pepper boneless chicken was a revelation!

Plus, the atmosphere was cozy and perfect for a casual night out. We loved it so much, we came back just five days later! If you’re in the area, definitely check it out! 😄
