Applebee's employee complaint

Hello,

My name is Gabriela Martinez and I am a former employee of Applebees in Topeka, Kansas. While working at the establishment I came across some information. The general manager Shawn, i'm not sure of the last names to my managers, is currently fraternizing with one of the prep cooks/servers. Her name is Kellsey. At first i thought it was a joke and rumors but the longer I started working there I heard stories from people and have seen Kellsey casually flirt and rub on shawn during one dinner shift. Kellsey gets away with a lot, in my opinion, and creats a bad work environment. She is constantly fighting with someone. I know this is a serious accusation but I would not report it if I thought it wasn't true. I've also heard the other manager, Jessica, ask employees for rides to/from work. I know her license is suspended. I had no idea it was not allowed to give managers rides. I'm not sure of the job title but I know Shawn's boss' name is Mark. I believe he is in charge of a few Applebees establishments in the Kansas area.

I work at Applebee's and I just started bartending and serving. I have been busting my but at night after my day job. The management as well as me.smelt something in the bathroom I sprayed it the 1st time. Know idea what is was. I was not only asked if I was on drugs. I am not have been clean since 2014. Then they took me in the office again and to prove to them I wasn't doing drugs and I don't know why I was the only one approached I emptied out my whole apron which is the only thing I had on me I had pens in there I had a lighter and I don't know if it was a piece of tin foil or a little piece of the pack for my cigarettes and the one manager said you were smoking drugs in the bathroom so you have to leave early tonight and took the rest of my shifts for the week and then scheduled me Saturday and Sunday when I have the first through the fourth off now I'm not going to be able to pay rent and they had no legal reason to have me leave I wasn't asked to show them what was in my apron I pulled everything out to prove to them that there's no way I could have been doing anything in the bathroom and my GM will not listen to me or hear my side of the story. I really like my job and I'm really hurt that I would empty my apron to show them that I obviously don't have anything on me and they would make me leave and take my shifts anyways and then talk friday well there's nothing to talk about because I didn't do anything and it's super not legal to accuse someone with no proof of drugs when Nobody had any reason to think or assume the smell was drugs. The 1st time I did go in with the gm and it was weird I don't know. The second time I was peeing and the mgr was next to me as I was saying weird it smells in here again and sprayed perfume in case of customer came in there I didn't know if it was diarrhea or if somebody came in smelling like cigarettes or weed I have no idea. Right afterwards she took me into the office and asked me if I was on drugs and I said no I've been clean for 8 years I used to be a meth user and she goes yeah people smoke meth off tin foil and I'm like I never knew that but thank you I was an IV user and even though it's none of your business and I'm really proud of the fact that I'm sober but instead I got sent home and got my shifts taken tomorrow and Wednesday or Thursday and I have to pay rent on the first and I feel like that's not even legal what they did to me and there's nobody to contact about it.. does anybody know if you can legally make somebody leave because you smell the funny smell in the bathroom and they just happen to have gone to the bathroom at the same time you were peeing and had a lighter in their pocket

Applebee's bbq brisket tacos

probably the worst taco I've ever had. In the picture it looked so good! I ordered it them and it didn't have ANY TOPPINGS. It only had the crispy onions that were burnt. They were not edible at all. I told the waitress I didn't like the tacos but all she did was laugh it off and apologize. She was sweet but the girl at the front didn't even acknowledge us. I attached my onions and what it was supposed to look like. I was just shocked that all I had was onions and meat!

Applebee's health hazard

I recently found out this woman who is a employed by our local Applebees. She has 30+ cats living in her home with fecal matter all over her home which smells of cat feces and urine the smell is so strong it can be smelled outside of her residence. She has had authorities remove 23 cats from her home previously. How is she allowed to work in a a food environment. This is not rumors or lies.

Applebee's threat from employee

Once every week my wife and I eat at Applebee, W180 N9469 Premier Ln, Menomonee Falls, WI 53051, and as we left tonight around 11 pm on Thursday August 16th, 2018, the employee, Nick, decides to come out and threaten my wife and I about a tip. As usual we give out tips, but tonight we did not and he threw a fit and theaten us. Clearly, he's angry about the tip, storming out the restaurant and eagerly telling us not to come and eat there anymore and that he will remember our faces. We went home feeling uncomfortable and we ask that this situation is to be settled so it won't happened again. Also we would like to know and be contacted about what will happen to this employee, Nick, specifically, so we can come back and enjoy eating at Applebee's without feeling threaten. My email is [protected]@gmail.com. Thank you for your time, and hope to hear from you soon.

Applebee's manager had horrible attitude

The manager/hostess walked over to our table and was rude about outside drinks saying "she'll allow it this time, but next time we better leave them in the car or we can't come in." All she had to say was outside drinks weren't allowed. Didn't need to threaten us, and from that point on our service was slow and she didn't check up on us like she did other customers. Our waitress was an absolute sweetheart, but the manager was not.

Applebee's unethical behavior/ terrible customer service

I went to Apple Bees on Saturday me and my Husband. The wait to get seated was horrible. I guess they were a little short staffed. Once seated, we sat there for 20 minutes and was never greeted by the Waitress, others that came in after us were attended to. We left, upon leaving, I spoke with the Manager Chrissy who agreed that it was unacceptable but watched us walk away. This is the 3rd time that I had problems at this particular location. I demand good customer service in whatever establishment that I'm spending my money in. The location that I'm speaking of is the one on Joppa Rd in Townson Maryland.

Applebee's employees

I was hired 2 weeks ago at Applebees in Tuscaloosa in the mall. Everyday I went I was put in worst section possible and made 92.00 in 3 days at 8 hours a shift. when said something he said I had to work myself up. But 2 other girls started same day as me and never once was in that section. But I was every night I worked. they aren't rotating sections between employees. Then one top of that the manager Patrick spends majority of his day talking outside on patio to girlfriend and when he is we can't deserve him. well that means if we need a manger for computer or guest they have to wait on him which I've seen him sit out there 45 mins. that's crazy. Patrick is very practical to black woman and let a them to do what they want. my last night there 2 girls got to arguing so he let the one girl tell the other how much silverware to roll she made her roll every one. it's over 300 pairs of silverware that isn't right to let other employees cut floor and decide on silverware. Thus is clearly favoritism. When I said something about the other 2 girls being there the same time he didn't have anything to say. I've been waiting tables 25 years and I've never ran across favoritism like this. and he basically told me that he keeps servers to close and let's kitchen go cause he has to pay them more. so he want me to go in there and work for 8 hours running everyone else's food and doing their side work for 30 in 8 hours. he told me he using us as cheap labor. that's has to make up for all the food and liquor he's taking from there for him and his girl. even on days off coming up there to get bottles and food. I've never worked for a more unprofessional place in my life. servers walking around cussing, on phones, talking new servers they have serjourity over us new ones and we have to do what they say. it's a big mess up there

Applebee's the service, food and management

On August 3rd around 4:30 my family, a party of 9 total went to (crapplebees) after my uncles funeral and it was horrible. The food was messed up and cold, my steak was ordered medium and it was well and burnt but I was not about to send it back and have someone mess with my food. I had to go get our server several times I even had to go the bar and get my own drinks several times cause 20 mins had passed since we ordered them. They were not busy at all. Our waitress name was Whitney. She was new and had no idea how to wait on tables. I worked at Texas steakhouse right next door for 10yrs. I know it's not a easy job but it cost me over 120$ for my 4 people on my ticket which got changed 3 times. After I had done paid it the second time which was 103 something we walked out side and I had to go back in and pay more on the same ticket cause she still had food left over on her screen after I wrote down everything that was on my ticket that I needed to pay. The manager was no good and needs to find another job. He was a tall skinny man not sure what his name was because he never came to check on us and seen me walk to the bar to get our drinks that we ordered from the waitress several times. There was a waitress there that did check on us and I tipped her for it. Her name was Jennifer, and I thanked her for it. There's not a lot of places to eat in martinsville va and I don't go out to eat but twice a month if that so when I do and I am paying to be waited on and have good food and service I expect to enjoy it and not have to get things myself. It was horrible and it took over an hour to fix the tickets. I can't say I'd go back there any time soon. That Applebee's didn't use to be like that. Coming from a former bartender/ waitress myself I know what you're suppose to do for the customer and the manager nor waitress made that trip a pleasurable dinner. I will not give this place a good review. Something needs to be done and changed around there. I'm VERY DISAPPOINTED in how our trip to Applebee's turned out August 3rd. I can name everything that's was on my ticket that day. Never again!

Applebee's customer service

While having an after work drink at applebees at 360 Fulton st. I witnessed a general manager by the name if Ackel Roberts threaten to punch a patron in the face for questioning the horrible service. The patron was patient and none confrontational. I will make sure to recommended that none of my co workers patronize this establishment at any location. I also felt uncomfortable and feared that if ever I had a complaint I could possibly be treated bodily harm also or possjble retaliation bybtampering with my food items... No... I won't be back and neither will my co workers.

Applebee's carside to go

I ordered from location at Main Street in Spartanburg, SC via phoneat 2:14 pm. I arrived and waited in the designated parking space I waited and watched a waitress seat some people waited a bit longer and after 12 minutes I decided to go inside to pick up my order. I observed employees being casual but not helping anyone- no work being done visibly I did observe my order waiting on the counter so I left my money and took my order and left my receipt so that they knew what the money was for. I am sure that if anyone else had arrived and just decided to go into the car side door they could have taken my food without having to pay I did wait inside for someone to help me and no one did. I did not contact this location for a complaint I came straight to this website to complain to corporate. In conclusion I observed several negative reviews online but decided despite my own personal bad experiences with Applebee's that I would give them another try- there had to be a new management and it had to be better. unfortunately it was much worse. this was the first time I have visited Applebee's in at least two years I will not be back ever.

Applebee's management

Aloha,
My name is Joen Baker and I used to be an employee at the Appleebee's location in Aiea, Oahu. I just recently quit my job because I felt like I was being mistreated by my boss. I've made some mistakes like any other normal person does but so has my boss and she never owns up to it. Quick question, shouldn't a writen up statement between you and the manager be private and confidential? If so, then please tell me why my manager was going around telling everyone what I had said! An incident happened at work with a bunch of us employees and we all knew the consequences of our actions, as did I. I owned up to my mistake with no excuses. They had found something that should'nt have been in the freezer and blammed it on the wrong people. I wasn't going to have that on my guilty conscious, knowing that people would be getting fired and it wasn't even theirs. So I told them that I knew whos item that actually was and my two managers assured me that no one would know who told them the name. I wasn't going to tell them the name until I knew they were serious about it. So I finally told them and they told me that they were going to say that they had caught them on camera and that no one would know that I was actually the one to spill the beans. But then, tell me why that following morning I get all of these rude awakening text messages from my furious co-workers because my so called "BOSS" went and spilled the beans about everything I had told them. I was so angry and confused because what kind of boss would tell others about my "private statement" and then reassure me that no one woule ever know. So not thinking straight I texted my boss and may have said some things i shouldn't have (which I apologized for right afterwards) and asking her why should would do that to me? And she completely denied it the whole time, blaming it on the other manager that was there with us. I know it was infact my boss because I was on the phone with my co-worker while she was with our other co-worker on the phone with our boss. And when I told her to her face that I know she was the one to tell everyone she lied straight to my face and was just playing the victim role saying "believe what you want, but I didn't tell anyone anything", " I wasn't the only one sitting down with you that day." So thinking I could trust my other manager I messaged her what was going on and she totally didn't care on what I had to say. She immediately called our boss and I know that they were plotting some scheme against me because they had called corporate before I even got a chance to! That is so messed up considering they never wanted to give me corporates information. They fed them false information and twisted everything up making me look like the bad guy at fault when actually it was all of their doing. Also that place is so unprofessionally runned! They need way better management there. I've also heard that some of the workers be smoking ice in the walk in, inlcuding my boss. How can they let someone who smokes ice run a restaurant? I'm being punished by not having a job now, while she's still at work running a restaurant. Actions need to be taken, my side of the story should be heard too regardless! Boss's arent allowed to socialize with us outside of work, yet here she is always hanging out with us and treating us to drinks. I'm still so hurt, mad, stressed, confussed, and just frustrated that Appleebee's would have someone working for them that acts this way. I thought she was someone I could trust, but apparently you can't trust anyone at Appleebee's!

Applebee's customer service

My name is Allegre Rankin and I went to an Applebee's in Georgia on Saturday Aug 4, 2018. The address is 4705 Memorial Drive Decatur. I order all you can eat chicken tenders and all u can eat ribs. The waiter brung out all you can eat ribs for myself and my girlfriend. When that wasn't the order that was place he took my ribs back but never came back with the tenders.. he didn't even come back to check on us with drinks. He was telling us he was helping on the grill. Then we ask for the manger Mr. William Powell came out and he wasn't rude at the time he was telling us about Uber eats taking priority over the people in the store. We explain to him that we didn't want the chicken tenders and he had the waiter bring it out in a to go box. My girlfriend explain that the ribs was cold and she didn't receive fries. He told her that she shouldnt be worried about fries she should be worried about protein. He was completely out of line for that. I told him he is in the customer service business and he needs to be a little nicer. And that I will be calling corporate he said u can call they will tell u I been with the company for 11 years. My whole point of this email is Mr. Powell needs more customer service training he was really rude and he doesn't know how to handle situations that occur. He did comp out our meal but he was really rude and I won't be visiting Applebee's for awhile.. I just really want Applebee's to help there staff with more training on customer service. Also this happen with the table that was in front of us. They was waiting on there second meal and it never came.

I went to dinner at the Applebees at 132nd and Maple St, Omaha NE 8-9-18. I ordered an Apple Sangria which was quite good. I then ordered the slab of BBQ ribs, baked potato and broccoli. The ribs arrived died out, the broccoli was overcooked and mushy and the baked potato was perfect. So, knowing the rib entree was good as it was going to get, they offered another entree. I ordered the grilled shrimp and chicken breast. It arrived with shrimp burned beyond recognition and the breast was dry and stringy. The potatoes, mushrooms and onions were quite good. I asked to speak to the manager again and showed him the shrimp, except he couldn't tell they were shrimp they were so shriveled and burnt. I then showed him the chicken and he just stood there and looked at the mess. I asked him if this how the meal is usually cooked and he said no and took the dish back to show the cook. At this point, I was pretty disgusted. He then told me the "big manager" was going to cook the same meal this time. For what that was worth. I called my waitress over and said I'd had enough, paid for my drink, tipped the waitress and left. Applebees used to have good food, then that store went downhill, then the word on the street said Applebees changed their menu and the food improved. Well, this store needs new management and some serious kitchen staff training. I regret I did not take photos of the meals. I feel badly for customers who just eat poorly prepared food or they don't tip the server bc the food sucks.. Word of mouth makes or breaks a business and this store needs serious attention.

Applebee's summer squeeze drink and sangria

Went to a local applebee's in westfield and ordered apps and 2 drinks .To my surprise when we recieved our order the drinks had these large unwrapped straws stuck in them and i took it out of our drinks right away! # 1 i felt it to be very disturbing it was a unsanitary straw and i wasn't asked if we wanted one or not, i have been in food service most of my life, noe retired but...I always thought straws had to be wrapped not to mention why stick it in my drink with all the talk going around about the no straw movement ! really my issue is how un sanitary it is to handle a unwrapped straw and shove it in someones drink...Yuk .Not to mention we were surrounded by flies, maybe because the waitress did'nt remove dirty plates, we love the apps but we might think twice about drinks not to mention what we paided for them ...I was almost going to ask for a fresh drink without a straw but did'nt want to cause a seen!

Applebee's half off appetizers

I I'm a strong lover of applebee's half off appetizers like most people and I expected to get half of appetizers and I didn't receive that when I went to my Local applebee's I went around 9:30 expecting half off apps because when you Google when does half off app start it says on week days after 9:00 p.m. So I went in Expecting no problems As did most of my party. After we got our check we did ask the manager and he said That he couldn't Change it even tell the website clearly States It should be half off. We didn't entirely make a big deal about It. The only thing I wish happened was the server would have told us that it wasn't half off after noticing every single one of us ordered an appetizer and just an appetizer

Oh, you googled it! How about asking the restaurant ahead of time if you can't afford to pay full price? And how was the waitress supposed to know that you are all a bunch of cheapskates just because you only ordered appetizers? I hope you left her a good tip, it sounds like your whole table was a bunch of whiny pain in the [censored] customers. I doubt you did though, since you're so cheap you order only appetizers and then whine because you had to pay full price.

You didn't verify that they had happy hour? You were responsible for checking this information when you arrived at the restaurant. Just because some random link on Google says something, it doesn't make it true. It isn't even a link from the Applebee's website. The website does NOT clearly state it should be half off. A blurb from a random third party website says that many Applebee's offer half off appetizers, not all. Not the manager's fault that none of you took the time to verify.

Applebee's ribs and shrimp.

My husband and I went to Apple B's on 7/26/18. I ordered the Ribs and a Side of Shrimp. The Ribs were supposed to fall off the bone and instead i had to rip the meat off with my teeth. It was very bad and i tried the shrimp and it tasted funny. When I came home my stomach was so upset that I spent the night in the bath room. I've never been so sick in my life. Thank you for your time. Mrs DeCarlo.

Applebee's riblets / chicken strips

Today I decided to die in one of your restaurants for lunch. I wanted to take advantage of the TV ad I saw for the all you can eat riblets. After seating myself at table in the bar area After about 5 - 6 minuets someone came and took my order and explained how the all you can eat processed worked. I chose to get riblets first which came out cold and almost no sauce on them. I made an attempt to eat some but being cold and no sauce they weren't good at all. I even asked for extra sauce hoping that the sauce would be hot and I could dip the riblets in the sauce but it was even colder. At this point I pushed my plate to the side and waited for my waiter to return. I told him that I was just over the riblets and I could I have the chicken strips for my second go around. He said yes and took the riblets ( almost a full plate ) which I was paying for and could've taken home and doctored up with me. He brought out the strips which were the smallest three strips I've ever seen, looked like it should've been on the kids menu. I was to angry inside at this point and asked for my bill which I paid along with a tip because it wasn't the young guys fault. As the day went on and I got even more upset because I paid for something that wasn't up to par. I'm not sure what can be done if anything because I typically don't complain about stuff like this I just don't go back to the Business and I also let my friends now . But today I feel like I just threw twenty dollars out the window.

Applebee's gift card

I purchased Gift Cards in the US and planned on using in Canada and after much research i came to the conclusion that I would receive 65 per 50 in canada. Then when I went to pay they did not give that to me. I really think I may have been scammed. Please help. I would not of used them if I knew that but after the fact it was too late. This was an Applebees in the Days Inn Victoria Street. Ontario Canada, Niagara Falls.

Applebee's service

We ate at Applebee's with a $25 gift card I received. It was football season and my whole family was dressed in chiefs attire. Our waitress was wearing raiders and she was talking smack on our team and was short and rude to us and our 3 kids. I have $8.40 left on my gift card and asking for a check from my remaining balance. We will not be returning to an Applebee's location.

The waitress made me so angry then when my youngest son accidentally knocked over his juice I pulled his hair and slapped him across the face. Now I find out that someone got my license plate number and called CPS on me. I am so scared. They want to talk to me. I did not know they were working so late.
