Visited recently , and had a GREAT experience overall. The restaurant was definitely busy, but our server, Gaby, handled everything really well. She was professional, patient, and kept a calm attitude even with a full section. She made sure to communicate about wait times and still checked in with us when she could, which I appreciated given how packed it was. It’s clear she was working hard to keep things running smoothly. Service like that doesn’t go unnoticed—Gaby did a great job making the experience a good one despite the rush.
For the past 25 years, we’ve never even thought about going anywhere else for our regular Sunday morning breakfast routine—it’s always been IHOP. It all starts with a humbling owner, Sam, whose presence sets the tone for an exceptional experience. From the moment we walk in, the hostesses greet and seat us with warmth and professionalism. Our favorite and only waitress, Yari, truly makes every visit special—a shining star whose warmth and brilliance light up the entire dining experience. She greets us with a genuine smile, remembers our regular orders, and often knows exactly what we want before we even say a word. Beyond her exceptional service, she always takes a moment for a kind, engaging conversation—sharing updates on her current studies and thoughtfully asking for a small but meaningful piece of advice or mentoring insight. Her attentiveness, timing, and genuine care are unmatched, always anticipating our needs without ever being intrusive. Alongside Jessica, Briana, and the rest of the excellent waiting staff, the service is consistently top-notch, and the food is always fresh, hot, and delicious. It’s this level of personal connection and outstanding hospitality that has kept us coming back week after week for decades. Biscuits and gravy, extra gravy on the side.
I’ve been coming to this IHOP for quite some time, and recently something feels different—in the best way. I’m not sure if it’s under new ownership or management, but the experience has noticeably improved. We visited on a Saturday morning around 9am. It was busy, but not overcrowded. We were seated in about 2 minutes (yes, really just 2 minutes), which was impressive given the time. Our waiter, Aaron, truly made the visit exceptional. He was friendly, attentive, and efficient. Since we already knew what we wanted, he offered to take both our drink and food orders right away, which made everything seamless. Our food arrived quickly, hot, and ready to enjoy. Aaron consistently checked in to make sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. We also appreciated being able to pay right at the booth—no need to wait at the counter. Aaron, thank you for setting such a positive tone for the rest of our day. Your kindness and attention to detail definitely did not go unnoticed.
