★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jamie C. · Sep 2025

My waitress was nice. That's it. That's all I got. The food was gross. You used to be able to count on IHOP to have the same quality at whatever location you went to but I had thick dry over cooked square shaped hash browns and a plate full of grease with sausage that looked it was tossed in the microwave and the scrambled eggs were basically lightly tossed fried eggs with $1.29 cheese added that was pretty non-existent. The atmosphere looks like we are in the kitchen eating, weird. I'm definitely not going to IHOP any more, already been a while since the food sucked at the other location, this just seals the deal.

Food was average for IHOP, but it arrived on the cool side because the service was very, very, slow. The waitress did mention it was her first day so we gave her a lot of leeway, but, I don't think it should have taken our food about 25 minutes to arrive, after waiting 10 minutes for our water, and slightly cool. This was also a random Tuesday and the restaurant was not busy at all. After we got the check and handed over our card, it took a little over 10 minutes for our waitress to bring it back to us. I went to the bathroom during this time and I have to say, it was not a clean bathroom. Unfortunately this was an unpleasant experience for us all the way around.

We were seated promptly, however two other couple seated after us were completely waited on before our server even acknowledged us at the table. They then warned me not to get the grits, but when I asked for extra, extra, crispy hashbrowns, they were still white when served. Both our pancakes were so cold, then butter didn't want to melt. I also have never been to an IHOP where the server says they have to pour your coffee for you when the craft/pot is brought to the table.

★★★★★ 5.0 Robert Raynor · Dec 2025

It was a great breakfast on a Sunday afternoon around 3:00 pm. The food was good and hot! I received my meal in less than 5 minutes. The waitress was very professional and friendly as well. The cook even welcomed me when I came through the door! That's never happened to me ever! The place was clean and tidy. I gladly rate this restaurant 5 stars✨⭐🌟

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Kimmy “Manicpot8to” · Dec 2024

What can I say—IHOP has really gone downhill, and this location was no exception. The biscuits and gravy, if you can even call that bland paste "gravy," were the worst I’ve ever had the misfortune of eating. I’m honestly annoyed I paid for the privilege. The French toast wasn’t properly soaked in the custard (which, here, means vanilla eggs), so it ended up being just regular bread with a coating of egg. The bacon was thin and overly hard, and the grapes served as “fresh fruit” were so wrinkled they were practically raisins. Fresh fruit, it was not. At least the pancakes—their namesake—weren’t terrible, though I still prefer the ones at Cracker Barrel. The one bright spot was our server. She was bright and bubbly, attentive throughout, and even left a warm Christmas greeting on our check
