Waitress didn't even bring water, ever! Slow service, chill atmosphere, drinks could be stronger and it'd probably get more customers
Nice reasonably priced restaurant in Alameda next to Trader Joe's in the south Shore shopping complex. Based on recent experience , the food is actually well prepared here and tastes surprisingly good. We selected the from $28 package and got the fiesta lime chicken and a 6 ounce sirloin along with onion rings as the appetizer selection. The onion rings were great, crispy crunchy even when cold and not greasy. The fiesta lime chicken was grilled just right and wasn't dry. Taste wise, every thing was good. Nothing fancy or weird, just straightforward and good. Clientele is diverse, and the atmosphere is relaxed. Familes, multi-generational families,friends, and couples come here for an inexpensive meal or a beer and snacks. The background music is easy on the ears and lends well to conversation. Service is polite and friendly Park near the Kohls department store to avoid the mess in front of Safeway. If you're looking for a nice place to grab a nice meal without breaking your budget, Applebee's in Alameda is a solid choice
