Best hashbrowns ever! Great place to go with the kids, fast and friendly service. Right next to MOA, so priced accordingly.

Amazing service! Manager is charismatic and the wait staff are full of energy. Very kind to our 2 children, making jokes with them. Seated quickly on a Sunday and food came within 5 minutes. The food is the same everywhere, it is the service that made this a 5. read more

They were super busy due to a concert just ending near by, but the staff was super apologetic about the wait and once we were seated, service was great and quick! read more

I had the most frustrating server on the planet Earth. This woman provided so much detail about literally everything on and off the menu you didn't know whether to laugh or yell at her. I do now know the following: 1. The kids meal portion is intended for a 5 to 6 year old. 2. The warm syrup is much thinner that the ones on the table and people are very wasteful with the thick syrup. 3. What is in the fresh fruit. It is tossed together and specific fruits cannot be removed. 4. All of the beverage options. All of them! 5. There is a survey on your receipt and that receipt is for you. 6. She will destroy your copy of the receipt if you leave it in the bill folder for your protection. 7. The cherries on the build your own face pancakes are maraschino cherries. They're delicious... why wouldn't you want them? 8. The ketchup bottle should have ketchup in it. I feel like a much more informed IHOP consumer after what felt like 6 hours in that place. If you need to know what comes in the Jelly Donut pancakes... just ask. read more

Will not return to this IHOP on the south side of Mall of America. We arrived to a NOT full restaurant at 9 am. Was waited on for beverage order and food very quickly. At 9:30 we had to ask about our order as we saw people getting food that were seated after us? We were told her orders we now just being made? Shorty after we were then told the cook made an error and had to remake? At 9:53 our food finally arrived. A 53 minute wait for our food. We were going to talk to someone at checkout but was told you paid your waitperson? Since when? Never told that when she delivered the check. We then asked to see a manager...GUESS WHAT...it's now almost 10:30 and nobody. So .....you decide if you want to be treated this way....I'll go to the one in Apple Valley! Oh our food was good except for cold toast & cold hard butter! read more

Came for my daughter's birthday and was told the free birthday pancakes are only for kids 13+, I guess next time we'll be going to Denny's... read more

We brought a group of 58 youth and leader and Frank and his staff were amazing taking care of us on short notice. It was a fantastic experience. read more

Maybe we were here on a bad day, but this place is ridiculously slow. Food was your typical ihop/Denny's/Perkins food. Staff was nice, just food prep was really, really slow and it ain't cheap. read more

Tried and true place for great pancakes and breakfast. Great service and great prices

I had a great breakfast. Very friendly staff, except for the woman at the front counter. She was very rude but other than that, it was great. I got the seasonal pancakes which were 4 pancakes with white chocolate chips in it and raspberries and whip cream on the top and it was SO DAMN GOOD. I recommend the restaurant and the food. Plus it's close to the mall which is always nice. read more

The service here was extremely slow. Not only did we have to wait for our drinks, which should come out quickly due to the fact that they do t have to be cooked, but we also had to wait quite some time for our order. Not to mention, all items in our order came out at the same time. Our waiter was extremely slow and had a horrible sense of humor. AND we had to wait at least 20 minutes to pay! I won't be returning to this location. read more

Ate breakfast here this morning. The service was pretty good except the waitress forgot to bring out my coffee. My food order was excellent. The eggs were cooked as ordered and the bacon, sausage links, hash browns, and pancakes were fine. After a few minutes, my coffee made it out. The place was busy, so it wasn't a big problem. Good place to eat. read more

Great quick breakfast. We went on a Sunday morning and it was packed. Was told a 20 minute wait by the cutest hostess ever (Alexis) I think. Anyway got in 5 minutes later. Our food was surper fast to the table and pretty much standard ihop food. 4 stars just because Alexis. Wow. Alexis this is Bob from Oregon. Or so you say "Baab" read more

Best service I have seen in a long time. With military precision they sat us. As we waited for our food the table next to us left and they cleared, cleaned and seated the next customers in less than two minutes. Food came out super quick too! This was on a Saturday around 10:30am. Place was busy and we walked in I thought for sure it would be a 30 minute wait to be seated, we got seated in less than 10 minutes. Great staff, keep up the good work!!!! read more

This is the worst food I have ever experienced. Everything was made from a mix or reheated from the freezer. Tiny portion sizes, large prices. Those square from the freezer hash browns make you want to puke and are a blasphemy to the real thing. Very nice waitresses, but absolutely disgusting food. When is this place going to finally shut down and something good open up? read more

Our server jamie did a great job!!! We showed up on a Sunday with a party of 9 and she made sure we had everything we needed.

Food was good. Service friendly. But dropped two stars because the server "heard" strawberry pancakes, and didn't hear strawberry BANANA pancakes, so I was charged an extra 1.50 for a banana!!! I shouldn't have to argue with a server! read more

There's really nothing new here. It's a chain, with chain food, cooked competently. A nice place to meet with friends for breakfast food when you want to take your time. read more

Great experience, and wonderful waitress! Friendly staff. Only reason four stars was because it took a while to get the food here.

Staying at Country Inn and Suites which is connected. Just stood at their hostess stand for 20 minutes being ignored by three different employees who saw me standing there and just ignored me. Too busy to want my business at 1 am on a Monday night. I would recommend going somewhere else. This location sucks. read more

Manager is funny, and makes waiting very entertaining! Service is hit-or-miss, but overall it's good here.

Great breakfast! Great staff. Noisy but thats because its a popular spot. All you can eat pancakes deal was great. Also had pumpkin pancakes avail. read more

Food is ok, but what makes the experience good is that all the people who work there are very friendly and the place is always clean.

Amazing experience! Wasn't expecting a whole lot but was blown away. We were told about a 10-15 min wait and we were seated within 5 mins. Our waitress was absolutely great and the manager was hilarious and walked around cracking jokes and saying hi to tables. read more

It is open 24 hours and is just great service and great food and very fast but ok Sunday's it is very busy

Excellent food and service! Manager went around and greeted everyone. Pancakes lived up to the hype. Seemed clean.

Everything was great food was slow do NOT get he kids pizza my sister was not pleased neither was my mom

We wanted to call and make an order for pickup but we were told they dont do that and to come in and order cause it only takes 10 minutes. We drove here and ordered a couple orders of pancakes and crepes to go and waited 30 minutes. We then asked multiple people how much longer it would be. One said not much longer, another said they'd check and then never came back. A gentlemen came in and just picked up his food and left, so it seemed like he had called ahead..another gentlemen came in 20 minutes after us, ordered his food, got his food and left...The manager finally came just to tell us the order didnt go through even though we had a recepit..Meanwhile my child had fallen asleep, it's been almost an hour at this point and the manager didnt offer to comp or even discount our order; he offered us free ice cream...We have been here on multiple occasions where employees didnt acknowledge that we were waiting in the front. At one point we waited 10 minutes and no one came to greet us so we left..We used to frequent this IHOP but over the past year or so this place has gone way downhill in customer service... read more

As usual, the food at IHOP was exceptional! I was in a hurry to get across town to a business meeting and the waitress made sure I got my order within minutes and there were many customers in the restaurant. Fabulous, pleasant service & she kept my coffee cup full. This was priceless to me. I highly recommend this IHOP location. Keep up the good work guys :-) Another very satisfied customer read more

The table was dirty when we sat down. Waiter wiped table with dirty cloth. Window shade was broken. Paint peeling off the walls, dirty windows. Food was terrible and over-priced. Were charged almost $10 for 2 small saucers of fruit because we wanted fruit instead of greasy hash browns. Bacon was off - not able to eat it. Sausages were thin and greasy. Toast was ok but had margarine instead of butter. Coffee was cold. I have eaten at IHOP before and food was fairy good, but this one was horrible. The only good thing was the manager was very friendly. read more

Been here first time since I moved back, services was really bad, food came late, waiters didn't ask how food was and they all have altitude. read more

Because of my job in sales, I eat at a lot of restaurants. My review for the Burnsville and Apple Valley IHOP wasn't even worth 1 star, but this location is amazing! I ate on a friday around 10:30, so it was slower, but the general manager, Frank, has a sincere care in his restaurant, in all of his patrons and I could tell by watching him that he really cares about his employees as well. I tried the new Griddle Melt and it had really good flavor. The toast it was on was crispy, the grilled red peppers were flavorful and the banana/caramel pancakes are to die for! Heidi was my server and she deserves KUDOS too! She checked on me multiple times, did everything she was supposed to do, but the thing that caught me the most was her smile. Every time she walked by, she had a smile on her face - and it was sincere, not fakey. I didn't see just young-conservatives eating here today, as most were older or 35+ at least. As far as the wait, well, there wasn't any today when I came, but if you're going to come on a Sunday morning or during a peak time, expect a wait - and look at it this way... if there's a wait at this location, it's cuz they're good! I put on a few pounds visiting this morning, but because of my previous view of IHOP where I swore I would NEVER EVER return (again, because of Burnsville and Apple Valley - still will never go there again) I will now make an effort to drive to this Bloomington location from my home in Burnsville again. read more

Just came in with a friend for breakfast. We are regulars who usually come at night when the staff is excellent. We are both servers so we aren't assholes with high expectations. However when we sit there for 20 minutes with multiple servers and the host passing by on numerous occasions and get no service it leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. read more

Take note, EP location! We were seated right away, my hubby got to speak Spanish with someone who could converse back (for a change) , we waited just a few minutes for our food, his steak was tender, my biscuits were fluffy, both meals were served hot and this was on a Saturday morning at 8am. Honestly, both our meals were enormous. read more

What an amazingly pleasant meal! From the moment we walked in, we were treated with outstanding service. Frank, the GM, and Deysi, our server, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They were understanding and accommodating of my dad's disabilities. The food was delicious- salads and breakfasts were fresh and generous portions. We will definitely visit again and recommend to friends and family. One of the most enjoyable dining experiences we've ever had. Enough to prompt my first Yelp review! read more

The coffee was great and I think the three of us drank a gallon. My simple breakfast of poached eggs and toast was just perfect. Eggs just right. The other two table mates had waffles, one with strawberries deemed delicious. Service was good. The place clean, bright and cheery, which matched a heavily breakfast oriented menu. read more

Kids DO NOT eat free like the ads say! and... it took too long for seating and service, pricing was higher than their competition and quality of food was sub par. I tried to tell them in their online survey, but it timed out on me, so I lost everything I typed to them. I will not go back! read more

We were there sunday am....super busy. GM Frank was everywhere, interacting and joking with all who were waiting. Our server, Antonio, was wonderful...friendly, interested in us, and conversational, despite it being so busy. Food was delish, and brought out in surprisingly timely fashion, considering the crowd. Kudos! Perfect finale to our getaway to the metro. read more

What a refreshing dining experience! Really delicious food, wonderful coffee and service that left our party all smiles. Waiter Antonio was a joy to have as a server, providing very upbeat, professional service to our table. So refreshing to have a smiling worker who enjoys people and knows his job well! Thank you for this exceptional meal and eating experience. We will be back and tell all our friends to come here as well! read more

Service was gold standard. Fast and pleasant. I would come back in a heartbeat. Food was excellent. Our server Pamela was top notch
