For some reason in Charlotte, when the hostess tells you the wait will only be 10 minutes, it'll actually be 30 minutes. This was the 2nd time this happened in two days at two different establishments. -_-
I have never been a fan of IHOP, but will go when majority rules. Coffee is watered down, syrup bottles sticky, food mediocre at best. I got the Harvest Grain 'N Nut pancakes.. I don't really know why, but I wasn't feeling anything on the menu. Pancakes were slightly soggy and only bearable with a large helping of syrup. Hashbrowns lacked flavor and had to be doused with ketchup and hot sauce. There was a lot of hope for the New York Cheesecake Pancakes at my table..everyone was disappointed. I suppose this place is only good if you're just looking to get really full. Service was decent, not stellar, but it's an IHOP, so it was decent.
