★★★★★ 5.0 Jeff Wilkes · Feb 2026

Everything was fast and seamless — from the moment we arrived, the service was friendly, efficient, and attentive. The food was delicious, and the happy hour deals made the experience even better. We especially enjoyed the milkshakes, which were rich, creamy, and perfectly indulgent. It’s rare to find a spot where the combination of speed, quality, and thoughtful discounts comes together so effortlessly. The staff’s welcoming attitude and the overall vibe made the visit feel both fun and relaxing. Between the tasty bites, refreshing drinks, and smooth service, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to, not just for the food and drinks, but for the upbeat, friendly atmosphere that makes every visit feel special.

★★★★★ 5.0 George Taylor · Feb 2026

I had such a wonderful experience at IHOP, and it was truly made exceptional by our server, Gisell. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and incredibly professional. She anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, refilling drinks promptly, checking in at just the right times, and making sure every detail of our meal was perfect. What really stood out was her positive attitude and genuine kindness. Even during what seemed like a busy shift, she remained calm, efficient, and upbeat. She made us feel welcomed and valued, not rushed. That kind of service is rare and deserves recognition. Because of Gisell, this wasn’t just a quick breakfast, it was a genuinely enjoyable dining experience. IHOP is lucky to have her on their team. We’ll absolutely be back, and we hope to

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Chef Angel Lynn · Jul 2025

Not the greatest. I actually had decent expectations of this place. We were seated promptly, and the hostess was friendly, and it wasn't extremely crowded. The food was cold and was taken to the wrong table. One of our meals was handed to another customer, and when they realized it didn't belong there, it was brought back to us after being handled by the customer, and the server that was helping the young man was upset that we didn't want it. Our waiter was clearly overwhelmed, and we didn't see much of him. For the finale, the ladies' bathroom reeked, and the floor was wet and lightly decorated with toilet paper. This goes on the list of places we will not visit again.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Brooke Jones · Dec 2025

I’ve been to this place plenty of times. But the only times I normally go is when I’m offered a coupon. This location can be somewhat slow some of the time. I’ve never had extremely negative experiences. My experiences have been average to good. There have been maybe 1 or 2 occasions when I received poor service from a waiter or waitress. But they’ve overall been pretty good. The issue is sometimes, depending on the type of food you order, they can get it wrong at times. Update: I got Morris on February 14, 2026 for a waiter this time and had a much better experience. He was very attentive and he takes feedback well. For example, when he mistakenly gave me sweet tea with ice for a refill after I asked for no ice in it, he finally took my feedback and got me the sweet tea without the ice.

★★★★★ 5.0 Herman Woods · Feb 2026

I have been to this IHOP numerous times and am very impressed with the hostess ( Liz ). She is very professional welcoming guests in a polite way. She thanks guests for coming and also when they leave. In my experience Liz always maintains a welcoming atmosphere. I have observed Liz taking orders from customers, delivering food to customers, and cleaning tables. In other words Liz does a lot more than Only performing hostess duties. Liz is an amazing employee that is a benefit to IHOP
