Pros
The work was very easy, and it was fun a lot of the time. There was quite a bit of downtime on specific nights, like Sunday and Monday. The managers were relatively relaxed, and the tips weren't awful.
Cons
Downsides: management. In my time at Applebee's, I had 6 different managers (they liked to shuffle managers from one successful location to another failing one). If you get bored easily, this is not the job for you. Most of the time, my coworkers were texting or hanging out in the back room (kitchen). Hosts were overworked, and servers were underworked. As a host, I cleaned the bathrooms, kid seats/chairs, tables, trashcans and trash, restocked mints/crayons/jiob apps, swept the floor, bleached toilets, you name it, I did it.
