Gone was iHop before I even moved to Lakewood. However, my patience paid off. As one of the previous reviewer said, it looks like a run of the mill tex-mex, refried beans in your face type of place.
But with it's space being an decorated with "international" as the theme, it kinda weird walking in there smelling tex-mex food but your sixth sense tells you there's a double blueberry pancake to be had. (hey TB, a new kinda of chalupa?)
But the food is amazing. I asked for the hot salsa and they asked me if I was asking for the habanero salsa and I said yes. Lest to say, it was hot. If you read my other reviews, you know when I say it's hot, it's really hot. So save for a few of those out there who have lucifer's taste bud, beware of the concoction.
The food is excellent. If this was run of the mill, it ran all over that mill wherever that is. The service is friendly and there's a lot of dishes to require multiple trips to savor them all.
In all consideration this is a must visit Lakewood business (yes, I know they have other locations too.)
