Applebee's in Des Moines, Iowa is based in the Bloomfield/Allen area and is liked for its service and late night half-price appetizer special.
Applebee's bailiwick is steak, so consider ordering one for lunch or dinner. You can go with the Bourbon Street steak, a Cajun-seasoned meat served with mushrooms and sautéed onions. Another steak you can order is the shrimp and parmesan sirloin, a 9-oz. sirloin covered with cheeses and scampi sauce. If chicken is calling your name, order the margarita queso chicken and shrimp. Applebee's also has something for children. They can have foods like a hamburger, 4-oz. steak or a chicken quesadilla.
