IHOP seems to be one of the go to places for us when we are looking for something cheap for dinner. The kids think having breakfast for dinner is the coolest thing ever (they eat free 4-10pm so that's a bonus) and IHOP is one of those places that you know what you are going to get.
This was our first time at this location. We came on Sunday, early dinner time, and it was fairly empty. There was a large party already seated, but other than that there weren't many people there.
Our server was friendly, and when our food took longer than normal (because of the huge party ahead of us and only one cook) she was super apologetic and even gave the kids free yogurt and didn't charge for the kid drinks.
I ordered the patty melt...weird choice in a breakfast joint but it sounded good. I don't like rye so I asked for sourdough. I wish I was told that the burger didn't fit the shape of the bread. Little patty, huge pieces of bread. The onion rings were good and hot. The fries weren't great. My husband got your normal two egg breakfast. One daughter got the Rooty Jr but didn't like the pancake, the other daughter got the chicken strips with fruit. Our server threw in an extra chicken strip and my daughter ate all of them but hardly touched the fruit (I don't blame her...it looked gross).
While we were waiting there was another server who was "babysitting" a little girl (probably not even 2 years old) that was running all over the place and getting in the way. You could tell the employees were annoyed. From what I'm guessing, the mom works there, in the back (bookkeeping maybe?) and had to get some work done so she stuck one of the girls not doing much with her child. Super professional (*eye roll*).
I wish I could remember our servers name because she was on top of everything, communicated well, and was all round awesome.
