Applebees - Pikeville, KY Review

    Originally a resident of Virginia, I moved to Kentucky at the age of 18. I was new to the area and new to local restaurants, so I began trying out places. Obviously, Applebees is a huge chain of which I am familiar with. When I ate at this particular Applebee's, I was only moderately satisfied with the service.  The restaurant staff were ok, but the food was only of substandard quality. When I recieve my meal it was slightly cold and appeared to have been setting out for some time. The sides were dry and my tea was swimming in sugar.

    As a vegetarian, Applebees proves to be a huge disappointment. While they do have the more health concious weight watcher choices available to dieters, they do not have any true vegetarian options on the menu. In a society in which MANY MANY MANY people are vegetarians and acting in more health concious ways, it surprises me that Applebees has not joined the competition by offering veg friendly alternatives.  Thankfully, I am not a full vegan so I am able to eat the Onion Soup-- but this is one of the few menu items I am apple to eat. In their defense, however, Applebees does have great mixed drinks.
