Arrived at IHOP and were greeted by a rather unfriendly host. we ordered our food and waited quite awhile to get our food.I ordered a diet soda and received a regular one. so I asked for a black ice coffee and then received a ice coffee with cream or milk. they didn't charge us for either. The food was good but the restaurant was loud and rather dirty. We will not return to this restaurant.

Ok I do this review with reticence, because of past bad experience. However, when things go well, they deserve to be reported. I was compelled to go because my wife loves the harvest grain and nut pancakes. So after a 2 year hiatus from the IF IHOP, we went back. It was 10:30 am so maybe the Saturday morning rush was over, we were seated right away. So far so good , usually they lose me just trying to get seated here. My wife got the breakfast with cheese scrambled eggs and the HG&N pancakes see pic. I got the bacon burger. All was excellent. I had said hold tomato and cheese and she misunderstood and didn't put on the bacon but more than made up for it by quickly bringing 4 slices of bacon. I asked for extra mayo and Heinz 57 and she remembered and lemons with the diet coke and she brought 4 large slices. So all was really excellent especially compared to the past. So see the pics, maybe they've got it together now.

Took my kids here and felt like we were robbed. Food was ok but way overpriced for what you get. Will stick with non-chain restaurants for breakfast from now on.

Horrible, horrible, horrible. Will never ever go to IHOP in IF again. Steak tips were worse then shoe leather (have no idea what shoe leather taste like, but has to be better then their tips), way, way over cooked. Potato Soup, the potatoes were hard, and some where like rubber, very chewy. 3.99 for a Strawberry shake that was the size of a kids cup. No whip topping on top, no cherry. Ordered a Philly Steak sandwich to go, with not side (no fries, soup or salad) still had to pay full price. If that is how all IHops are, I will not go back to any of them. Prices are way to high for what you get. Can't even give them a one star.

I just came back from IHOP half an hour ago (I live in a different town) and again I'm fairly disappointed. Last time I went (about a year ago) they completely undercooked my chicken so I didn't go back. However I decided to give it a shot. Our server was...very and I mean VERY boring and plain. We did NOT feel welcomed at all. The seating was weird too. He sat one family in one room and then sat us right across the other side of the restaurant. It was also only two tables including us. It took him a fairly long while just to get us waters. And even longer to take our orders. Not to mention how long we had to wait for our food. I noticed we were there for 40 minutes and my husband and I usually take about 10 minutes to eat since we don't really sit around. So all that 30 minutes was just sitting there waiting. I ordered the sirlong tip mushroom omelet. And my husband ordered the breakfast sampler. My sirlong omelet was such a let down in presentation. On the picture (now I know not to expect much) it was an omelet covered with mushrooms, tomato, hash brown, cheese and steak pieces on top. Mine literally (no joke I counted) had three...THREE mushrooms and ONE steak piece. And the cheese was completely just thrown on the side of the omelet. I was very disappointed by the presentation. My husband's dish was very greasy looking. Also my hash browns on the side was burnt. There wasn't even that much too! It was like a children size hash brown that was half black and half brown. Thankfully, it was decent. But our waiter was very poor. Just like Talor B. said, I heard him and the freaking MANAGER laugh and joke very loudly. I was hoping the manager would tell him to work or something but instead they ignored us and joked with each other. And we overheard them making fun of my husband for being mexican. Very disrespectful! Another thing that bothered me was that as soon as we got our meal, ten seconds later he handed our tickets and never checked on us again. Will not be coming back again for maybe MAYBE another year.

Prefacing this review, I'd just like to point out that I've been to it before, and have never had food or service this bad until tonight. My girlfriend was craving an omelette, so we decided to have IHOP for dinner. Hadn't been here in quite a while, and I like their pancakes so it was an easy choice really. As we walked in, the server greeted us and immediately seated us. That would be a bonus except for that she placed us so that I was staring directly into the sun. As she came back from taking our drink order, we asked her if we could move and she agreed to let us move to the back of the restaurant. All fine and dandy. I was a bit indecisive on choosing a food item to order, because I didn't really feel like having pancakes at 7:30 at night. I ended up ordering the Tuscan Chicken Sandwich. Still, after taking plenty of time to decide, the waitress probably took at least an additional 10 minutes to come around and take our order. Girlfriend chose the International Omelette. After a little while, our food arrived. Taking the first bite of the chicken sandwich, I knew this wasn't going to be a pleasant experience. I couldn't taste the pesto (which is one of the reasons I ordered the sandwich in the first place), and the sun-dried tomatoes tasted off. As an option, I chose the french fries as my side. I love french fries, but these tasted like they just came out of the freezer, and were pretty bland overall. My girlfriend was annoyed that she didn't receive any salsa with her omelette, and had to flag down our waitress to get some. In return, she got a small cup that was barely enough for a few bites. She didn't ask for more, but that was likely because the waitress was too busy goofing off and laughing with the kitchen staff. This is with only 2 tables that our waitress was attending to. You see, this particular IHOP has a shade that separates the dining room from the kitchen, so we could hear everything. There were constant bursts of laughter, and occasional loud phrases heard (one was "That's terrible!" I'd hope whatever was "terrible" was nothing more than a simple, lewd joke and nothing else). Not something I want to hear from a kitchen. Overall, the best part of my dinner was the pickle spear that was next to my fries. After all, they didn't have to cook or prepare it in anyway, so how could they screw it up? My girlfriend was disappointed since she was really craving an omelette and the lack of salsa and inattentive service made it impossible to enjoy.
