Ramona: Tomato basil soup, tortilla chicken melt, iced tea

Jim: Tomato basil soup, chicken tenders platter, iced tea

The only problem with these chain restaurants is one common to them all over the country -- they unnecessarily rush the dinner, even when the place is essentially empty. This particular Applebee's was not even half full, and still we felt rushed. Wait staff that hover and return to the table four or five times to see if we need anything are also a minor annoyance. Otherwise, the food was good. The soup was warm, but not scalding hot. I know some will disagree, but we like it that way.
