used to travel a pretty good bit but I can only remember eating at Applebee's one time. Must not have been off the charts either way or it would have stood out.

Applebees use to have some pretty good pasta dishes. They were the kind of place you'd go if wanted better than fast food, but didn't want to spend steakhouse money. I took my son last year for a nice father-son lunch, and was thoroughly disappointed in the much-reduced menu.
