Bad Bar Experience. Hey Consumers,

I recently brought my family into the Applebee's restaurant in Sterling, Va and had a very disappointing experience. The bartenders obnoxious friends came into the bar, used foul language, and offended two of my family members. THE WORST PART...the bartender did nothing and the manager ignored us. This level of service is never acceptable and I hope you reconsider your other dining options before going to this Applebee's. I cannot speak for the dining rooms or servers at this location, but I can tell you that the poor bar service, disrespectful clientele, and inattentive management are enough to dissuade me from ever returning again.

Sincerely,

The Consumer Advocate

Big portions of mainstream American fare, served up in a convivial, family atmosphere.. In Short
A low-key, friendly environment attracts plenty of families to this reliable chain. Kids in the big booths--often clutching free balloons and crayons--usually outnumber adults sitting at the bar. The menu offers filling American fare with no surprises, from mozzarella sticks and nachos to rollups and burgers. Entrees include steaks, fajitas and main dish salads. The calorie-conscious can select from a list of Weight Watchers-inspired dishes like mesquite chicken salad and grilled tilapia with mango salsa.
