Applebee's: So, Fl Ave in Lakeland, FL

We had a conference at school Tuesday night and didn't get out of there till late. So, we went out to dinner with a very tired little girl. We let her chose the restaurant. Applebee's was her second choice. Her first choice was "Bone Fish Grill" but we knew better than to take her to Bone Fish considering the state she was in. So, Applebee's it was. The place was not crowded so we got right in and seated. I had a club sandwich (pictured), daughter had Mac N Cheese (Kraft Mac N Cheese) with applesauce, hubby had Parmesan Steak w/shrimp. My sandwich was good but the bread was greasy. As you can see by the picture, it shows the sandwich comes on toast. No mention in the description of the sandwich does it say the bread is fried in grease. I would have sent it back but time was of the essence. We were pushing it with little one and we needed to eat and get home. Daughter ate her Mac N Cheese like it was going out of style. Hubby asked for his steak to be cooked medium, it was well done. The waitress confided in us they had a new chef who was training. We just asked her to let the new chef know the steak was well done and not medium. I'm not sure where the shrimp were on his steak. I could not see them from where I was sitting. The food and the wait staff ...all just okay. The price for this "okay" food was not okay. Really they should lower their prices to better represent the standards. I was shocked to see I was charged $2.95 for a glass of seltzer! At Applebee's? For a glass of fizzy water? And a dish of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese nearly $5.00! We came out of there thinking Applebee's is just one step up from fast food but three steps up in price. Not good.
