What was great: Bacon cheeseburger wonton tacos with crispy exterior and powerful cheddar flavor, loaded potato wedges with bacon and cheese, Impossible burger with juicy patty and flavorful toppings, dollar margarita deal
What could improve: Nothing mentioned
The Dishes
The main attraction was the bacon cheeseburger wonton tacos, which featured crispy flash-fried wonton shells loaded with seasoned beef, crispy bacon, shredded cheddar, scallions, and a creamy sauce with what the reviewer suspected was Frank's Red Hot mixed in. The exterior was described as extremely light and crispy, while the beef was praised as quality apple beef with excellent cheddar flavor that actually stands out rather than getting lost among other ingredients. The reviewer declared himself in love with this item and suggested ordering four of them.
The loaded potato wedges were another standout, featuring thin-cut fried potato wedges topped with bacon crumbles, onion, cilantro, both cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. These were described as stepping up the game from regular fries.
KJ tried the Impossible burger, which scored an impressive 8.5 out of 10. The patty was juicy and flavorful, with red onion, pickles, and toppings that created a well-balanced bite. The reviewer noted the burger had excellent moisture and flavor profile that kept KJ coming back for multiple bites.
The Experience
The server Iris provided excellent service despite the reviewer arriving disheveled after hauling 38 sheets of sheetrock to his office. She was friendly and accommodating, and notably introduced the brand new dollar margarita promotion that had just launched that day. The atmosphere was cold inside, which the reviewer initially appreciated after being hot and sweaty outside.
Value and Pricing
The main talking point was the new dollar margarita promotion, which Applebee's just started offering every single day for approximately one month. The reviewer was amazed by this deal and joked about potentially visiting every day. He emphasized his love for the deal multiple times and highlighted the bacon cheeseburger wonton tacos and loaded potato wedges as must-order items.
Notable Moments
You in for a treat, kid
Dollar margaritas what you trying to do? I said Iris, you better stop playing with me
The flavor is extreme, powerful. Great cheddar
If it was my restaurant, I'd do it every Wednesday, maybe. Not every day, Applebee's. You stunning
The reviewer joked about being caught off guard when KJ didn't immediately alert him to the bacon wonton tacos arrival, and there was humorous banter about the generous dollar margarita deal potentially driving crowds to the Plainville location.
The Verdict
This Applebee's visit was a resounding success. The reviewer praised the restaurant for consistency and noted they haven't disappointed him yet unlike other establishments. He called the bacon cheeseburger wonton tacos a must-order item and emphasized that customers visiting the Plainville location should ask for server Iris who will take care of them. The combination of quality food items and the incredible dollar margarita deal makes this location worth visiting during this promotional period, especially for those who appreciate good value on appetizers and drinks.
