Worst IHOP. Warning this is another novel like many of my reviews. There's a part TWO is in the photos
Hey man if you like waiting...come on down to this IHOP!
If you like being served burnt food... come here boo
If you like being charged $40 for a $20 dollar tab...I'll save you a seat (:
Came with my boyfriend on Sunday at 9:45pm-10:00pm. I feel like people who take this job feel like "pshh no ones gunna come to this 24/7 restaurant. I'm gunna be able to chiiiil"
The amount of costumers was pretty normal and a bunch of the servers were walking around in normal clothes. It started to get busy when were finishing up.
I ordered the appetizer sample and my boyfriend got quesadillas and a side of grits (lmao I know weird ass combo). Our sever I'll call her Bambi takes our orders and then we wait, now that I think about it, it did take a long time to get our order but we were weren't paying attention cuz we were so hungry.
I got the sampler: my mozzarella sticks & some of my onion rings were burnt & hard. I know Cuz I was like "comeee on just give them a chance Kaitlan maybe they're not that bad" (to myself) I bite into one & it was so hard the whole IHOP shook. Just playing but they were pretty hard, it scrapped the top of my mouth...you know when hard toasted food like scrapes/rips off the layer of your top gums and your skin comes off? Maybe that's just me. Anywaysss, my boyfriend didn't get his grits yet & neither of us got any dipping sauce. No ranch no marinara sauce just the sour cream and salsa for his quesadillas. So we patiently waited for those to come which never did. Our food was only warm upon arrival & since we waited to speak to her again it was getting pretty cold fast.
We thought "oh Bambi's prolly busy" which she did SEEM like it...I saw her sprint to the front register. She was talking to like 3 other servers doing something with like receipts. Then she was CHIIIIILIN bro. Bambi bent over, put her elbows on the counter and her chin in her hands straight day dreaming! Mind you my boyfriend still didn't have his grits. So I wait a few mins I thought "ohh like Bambi's prolly tired or having a bad day" so I was chillin too.
We waited & waited Then I was like okay...I don't think she's gunna move so I raised my hand to try & get her attention. it was like she was looking right past me lmao she was hard core thinking bout something. So I start waving my hand at Bambi, she sees me and comes over. I say
"Hey did you get the grits order in, also my mozzarella sticks and onion rings were burnt could you replace these & can you also bring us two ranches?" She responded "yeahh the grits are coming right up and okay sounds good"
So we wait some more, she comes out FAST with cold grits one ranch and two salsas. Me and my boyfriend start laughing so hard cuz we're like when did we ask for two salsas?? hahaha and the cold grits basically told me that they'd been cooked a long time ago and they were just sitting there waiting to be served.
So now I'm just waiting for my replacement food & Im sure they don't take long to cook at all. But a while passes and I still don't have them or the two ranches so I wait to flag her ass down again lmao, I say "hey you didn't forget the mozzarella sticks did you?" Bambi looks at me with her big doe eyes saying "oh no they're making them right now" she goes straight to the kitchen. I say to my boyfriend "I swear if she brings them out in like two seconds that means they just been sitting there like your grits were". He bursts out laughing because sure nuff there's Bambi beside me with the mozzarella sticks and ONE ranch. AND the mozzarella sticks were deff just sitting there cuz they were warm not HOT and steamy haha.
We ate our lukewarm food and a different server asked how everything was as Bambi frolicked in regular clothes (non ihop attire) out the door. Then literally sprinted back inside still in her regular clothes. We asked the new server for boxes and our check.
