Not What it Use to Be!

by ThaiFire09 at Citysearch

I really was disappointed this afternoon, by not only the staff but the food as well. I use to come to this place every week with my family but after today I will never be back again.

The waitor was rude, seemed like he was in a hurry, and not very nice...considering there was like 2 other families in the place I figured we would get a little more attention-quite opposite. Asked us our order and when the food came out-25 mins later-it was cold, and it wasn't what I ordered. I wanted the Pancake platter-that for those of you who do not know is Pancakes with your choice of bacon or sausage. Apparently that waitor did not know either. He came out and game me eggs and hash browns-which I didn't ask for but he said I did. I did not even argue and let it go. Then he never came back to check on us but once. My little brother ran out of pancakes and needed more but after 15 mins of waiting for our "waitor" to come back, I just asked for the check and left. Barely any food was eaten bc nothing pleased me, probably majority of the reason was bc I was so upset.

All I know is that my family will not be rejoining this establishment ever again after today.

Breakfast served all day and pancakes served a variety of ways are the hallmarks of this diner-style restaurant.

In Short
The first International House of Pancakes opened in a suburb of Los Angeles in 1958 serving a menu of hearty breakfast favorites. Today the restaurant still serves its signature dishes like the original buttermilk pancakes and pigs in blankets: sausage links wrapped in hotcakes. Other breakfast items include waffles, omelets, French toast and crepes. Non-breakfast offerings include sandwiches, burgers, entree-sized salads, and dinners like T-bone steak, pot roast and herb-roasted chicken.

Great Food & Great Service!

by algal at Citysearch

Very good food, went for Breakfast but have been for Dinner as well and it is just as good. I have had just about everything on the menu, so you see I am a regular there, ha! Fast service, nice Servers, excellent Management Staff who care and call you by your first name. Seems they own the one on Crestwood Blvd also, and I have been there twice and find the same excellence. Tasty food priced right for the huge portions. I just LOVE IHOP!

  • Pros: Friendly Service, Great Food, Great Prices, Variety Menu, Open Late, Good Kids Menu
  • Cons: None that I see.

Great Breakfast Food

by cemjr at Citysearch

On a recent trip to Biringham, my wife and I had breakfast at IHop. It was so good that we went back the next morning too.

It can take a little time for the food to come out of the kitchen, but that might be because it was crowded both mornings.

The food was great, the service was wonderful, and I will be back the next time I visit this town.

  • Pros: Great Food!, Wonderful Service, Huge Portions
  • Cons: Can get crowded
