"Asked for silverware but didn't get any. Other than that pretty good. Salmon always cooked perfectly and so is the broccoli. "
"Dining in at Applebees is one thing, but the workers here don't care about your takeout order. Scammed too many times with huge lack of food portions and the quality is awful for some reason as if this food was sitting out all day long and re-microwaved for a 3rd time and plopped in a box. This keeps happening multiple times!! One time, (the most recent)We Ordered ribs which came with fries and another side. We opted for extra fries instead and they gave us such a small portion of fries that tasted stale and dry. The ribs are usually good whenever I've been there but this time they were extremely dry, way too much fat and connective tissue...And for these prices my dude... unreal. Do better Applebees. People actually eat this food after coming home from long work days and not having time to cook. It's not right! It's almost as if someone ate half our meal before sending it off."

"Chick-fil-A is one of the most popular fast food restaurants, and it definitely lives up to the hype. The food is consistently fresh, hot, and flavorful. Their chicken sandwiches are especially good—the chicken is juicy, well-seasoned, and has a nice crispy texture. The waffle fries are also a standout side, with a unique shape and great taste. One of the best parts about Chick-fil-A is the customer service. The staff is usually very friendly, polite, and quick to help, which makes the experience better than most fast food places. The restaurant is also typically clean and well-organized. The only downside is that it can get really busy, especially during lunch and dinner hours, so wait times might be a little longer. Also, they’re closed on Sundays, which can be inconvenient. Overall, Chick-fil-A is a great choice if you want high-quality fast food and good service. Rating: 4.5/5"
"The egg white and grilled chicken on an English muffin was absolutely fantastic! The combination of the fluffy egg whites, tender and flavorful grilled chicken, and the soft yet slightly crispy English muffin was a perfect balance of taste and texture. It felt light but satisfying, and the high protein content made it an excellent choice for a quick, healthy meal. Whether you’re fueling up for the day or looking for a post-workout option, this is a delicious, guilt-free treat that hits all the right spots. Highly recommend!"

"I always find my meals from 99 are fresh and amazing. The honey glazed biscuit is a favorite. I love the grilled chicken and how it's prepared. The desserts are so delicious. The only "downside" is it used to be much cheaper and was good value. Now it's really expensive and are, in my opinion, overpriced. I understand that's kind of the general way things are these days, but still, used to be able to spend a reasonable amount and now it's pretty insane. But if you want a great meal and feel confident that you are going to get quality and enjoy it? 99 is the way to go. If you're going to spend the money, you don't have to worry that you'll be disappointed."
"Hot, crispy, and delicious. Original Crispy Chicken Tenders were small this time but I got a lot of them! Still wish I had the option to get extra honey mustard. Mozzarella Moons were good for delivery. Only ever had them in the restaurant but for my first time ordering them for delivery they were good! Crisp and gooey. Would order again!"
