I come to this location often. There is always a wait but trust me it is always worth it. Great experiences every time.

This place is HUGE! I can't imagine there being any issues with getting seated, the service is fast and friendly, and the entire building seems to have been renovated recently... Everything is sparking fresh! Food is exactly as you'd expect from a well run IHOP. Will definitely be a regular stop while staying in the area. read more

Good food for a good price. I always get the same though. Sirloin tips and eggs(in the breakfast section)!

I have been coming to this locations for over 10 years already. I have never seen this location doing this bad in those ten years. Good poor quality, not so tasty. Management walking already the restaurant greeting costumers dress in sandals sleeves less shirt. Correcting the employees at the front door where costumers can see everything and hear everything, instead of pulling them aside and talk to them in private. Lack of costumer service. Waiter disappeared and never came back. Flyers where inside the restaurant over the costumer food. read more

Clean. Its a bigger Ihop which means less wait time. Friendly service and food came out fast. read more

IHOP - Berry french toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Elizabeth, New Jersey

This location is quiet on the weekends. However this does not mean that the waiters are attentive to the few customers they do have. They somehow are nowhere to be found when you need to order, need to get the bill, or just have a general question. Since it was my family's first time coming here since IHOB became a thing, we wanted to try the burgers. There was a new burger menu and the featured regular one came with unlimited fries and a drink. We proceeded to ask our waitress if this applied to all burgers or just the regular one. She didn't know and had to ask the cashier. While she was gone we began searching for the answer ourselves and saw that the menu said "any burger included in this deal" so we were happy to see this. However when our waitress came back she said it only applies to the regular burgers. We pointed out the font on the menu that we found and she looked flustered and looked around for help, but again there were no nearby waiters. She eventually "gave in" and said we could choose our burgers. For a big company like IHOP to make a change to their name, becoming IHOB they sure didn't train their staff on the NEW FEATURED burgers (that was the whole point of the name change). I am truly disappointed of the service. If IHOP wanted burgers to be their quintessential menu item they should: 1) Work on taste 2) Make sure their waiters know the new menu read more

I guess they ran out of spinach because the put in huge pieces of broccoli to make this omelet. Can you at least chop the broccoli up? smh read more

IHOP - Gross - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Elizabeth, New Jersey

HOP on over to IHOP after a long day of shopping at Ikea & Jersey Garden Mall. First time we went to a IHOP with NO lines waiting. Upon entering this IHOP we were greeted by a friendly host. Sat down and our waitress came right over, name Samantha. I had the philly cheese steak & my wife had the inter. crepe passport. For a lunch time crowd, we got our food right away. The portions were big and piping hot. She also checked on us with a smiley face, and didn't get rushed out. So much better then Mall food. We will definitely come back to this IHOP whenever we are driving by NJ Turnpike. read more

- Good location, just across Jersey Gardens Mall - Expect crowd especially on weekends lunch time - like their flavored coffee with mousse on top - yummy chicken florentine crepe - tried the turkey avocado eggs Benedict read more

Me and my mom came in and a server by the name of Edgar looked like he was done with his shift and saw us waiting to be sat so he took the time to sit us at a booth. Then we had Jason as our server. He was absolutely polite and patient with my mom and I. (We are a bit indecisive when it comes to ordering .) His energy and positive attitude deserves to be recognized and appreciated . Thank you. read more

Kudos to Jeff our server, he is the greatest. Second time that we have had the pleasure of having Jeff serve us and he always has a smile for us. Thanks for everything! read more

Shout out to the AMAZING Sean (sp?) for taking the time to deliver gravy to complete my delicious breakfast that I ordered to-go. Sean is incredibly kind & I cannot thank him enough for taking the time to redeliver the missing item. He's a rockstar & I will definitely be visiting this IHOP again read more

I inquired about the charges on my bill at the register and the young man with the blue shirt (host) was very disrespectful and shrugged his shoulders and brushed me off. The manager was just as disrespectful when I voiced my concerns. Never again ! Do not recommend! Food was not good and that's not how you treat your customers read more

The breakfast was good for a chain restaurant. I was a little disappointed in the service. I didn't receive a drink refill and my pancakes took forever. They must have had to pick them from the pancake tree. That's where my girlfriend told me pancakes came from. I don't have enough evidence to dispute this theory. read more

Here visiting family and we decided to grab some breakfast. I got the Belgian dark chocolate mousse pancake combo with eggs, sausage and hash browns. Food got to the table and I found a bunch of eggshells in my eggs and on my sausage. Sent it back and it was replaced (they even threw in another egg). Bit into the pancakes and they tasted of raw dough. The texture was very off. Very gummy and stuck to the inside of my mouth. I told the waitress and she told me that it's the mousse in the batter or between the pancakes. The issue with that is I've gotten these pancakes before and they were amazing! Not gummy and gross. She brought them back to the kitchen and got me some new ones made "well done" and completely disassembled because she was so sure it was the mousse. So before I added the mousse, chocolate chips and whipped cream, I tasted the pancakes. Still the same nasty texture, still completely coating my mouth like raw, gummy dough. Thinking maybe it's me, I tried some regular pancakes from my husbands plate. Those were delicious, had good texture and I was able to actually swallow them. I told the waitress again that the texture was off and she still insisted it's the mousse in the batter. She did offer to bring me different pancakes but everyone else in my party was done eating by that point. I left very disappointed and hungry. Overall a pretty terrible experience for me but the rest of my party had no complaints. Server was awesome and tried her best to accommodate me with the pancake issue.The two stars are for her, knocked off 3 for the terrible pancakes. read more

Found a giant roach leg with visible hair follicles nestled in my half eaten steak omelet here the other day. Manager tried to dismiss it as a being a piece of burnt egg after the platter was already removed. Manager does not know I took a picture before plate was removed. Although, manager did the right thing by subtracting $9.89 - the price of omelet from the check; manager also did a very wrong thing by adding $4.39 - the price of the pancakes that came with the roach infested omelet! So far, I've contact corporate, but did not get a response. Will file complaint with NJ sanitation department unless a proposed resolution is forthcoming. read more

Our waiter was horrible, the food was not cooked the way we wanted it even though we told the waiter the specific way we wanted. He disappeared for like 20 minutes and had no idea where he went. Another waiter had to come take care of us because we called him over. This waiter was much better and helped us with whatever we needed. read more

Sorry, I have to give you a garbage rating for ruining my meal the last TWO times I have ordered from you. I get the CUPCAKE pancakes, and you fail to include the icing, despite my message that I WANT IT. The icing is what makes the cupcakes. So twice now I have thrown my order in the garbage because it's through Uber eats and I have no way to get the topping. Pissed. read more

Worst place ever! They were consistently out of different foods and drinks, really bad service,and very long waits. Have come here a lot, but this is it--never again! !! No management whatsoever! What a disaster!! read more

Across from Jersey Garden Mall it's a convenient location for Mall shoppers. This is about the only thing going for this horrible IHOP. Came here with my granddaughters from doing some shopping at the Disney Store in the mall across the highway. Servers with bad attitude. Served my coffee walked away we did not have utensils on our table so by the time she got back my coffee was cold as ice. Normally IHOP's have free food for the children with one adult paying, not here. Also the children's meals do not include the children's drinks. Bad service expensive and nasty oh, I wish I could rate them a zero. read more

Sweet staff, good food, clean restaurant. IHOPs can be a major hit or miss, but this one is definitely a hit. It can get a little busy because it's right across from Jersey Gardens, the biggest outlet mall in the NE, but it's a pretty large restaurant and they seem to have their tables under control. I've been twice to get my pancake on and it hasn't disappointed. read more

This IHOP rocks!! I hold alot of business meetings here. I take my family there. Its a great size, its clean, the food is always fresh and the staff are all very gracious! Theres another one close by but I refuse to go to that one. The above applies whether its a slow late night or a busy Saturday morning. My favorite IHOP in the whole wide world! read more

I've tried to go several times. Since we are staying at a nearby hotel, this is one of the very few options we have. We have actually been able to walk in the door all of once. There are usually empty seats, but with overcrowding at the door, waiting to be seated, there's no way I can get seated ( or food!) in a timely manner. Since my blood sugar is an issue, timely is key. Probably won't be going to try going back here again. read more

Never never again The pancakes were good but then again what is it take to make a pancake my eggs were burnt they were inedible

Best IHOP experience ever! The restaurant is clean, and although crowded we were seated immediately and service was quick. The food was very good, but the shining star of this place was our server Danielle. She's phenomenal. She should be made a corporate trainer and sent all over the country to open new restaurants and make sure every server knows how to do things the right way. Epic. read more

Pleasant experience other than the 30 min wait. Mgmt is doing something right. My waiter, Christian was very helpful and courteous considering how busy it was. The food was very good. I had 2 eggs, 2 sausages and hash browns. They were perfect and not burnt! The blueberry pancakes were good, but blueberries and sauce didn't take like blueberries. Overall great experience, will come back. read more

I remember when I visited that IHop restaurant man years ago when it first open. I mean I miss going to that IHop next to Jersey Gardens Outlet Mall. I've like a Philly Cheese Stake meal & it taste so good. I went with my brother & my mother back then. I mean it's good for groups & all that type of stuff. But I've to try to go there another time. read more

Visiting from California. Was greeted and seated by Jayda who was very friendly and helpful! Was waited upon by Tameka who was friendly, helpful, patient, and took great care of us! The ladies' bathroom was very clean and fresh smelling! Great dining experience read more

Well dad was in the mood for breakfast so i suggested I HOP. Dad was so happy with is western omelette and pancakes he looked like a little boy happy as can be and all my years of growing up dad wasn't really a breakfast guy so to see him enjoying as much as he did it put a smile on my face lol . The staff was great and always checked up on us and it was pretty cool that the manager was the one to bring us a meal he was super nice and friendly . I on the other hand sometimes gets tired of breakfast can you believe that lol well anyway i said to hell with it i'm going to order the fried chicken meal .can i say that the fried chicken was so juicy and tender and crunch it was very good and it came with mashed potatoes and corn and a biscuit i was rather shocked how good my fried chicken tasted for it being at I Hop but i will order it again . I enjoyed my visit to i hop and it was a great time with the family read more

One of the cleanest IHOP's I've been to. The food is good. Still waiting for a hoodrat fight to pop off while i'm there so I can YouTube it... lol. Anywho, the wait staff leaves much to be desired, not the brightest group of kids. I literally got asked once "Is strawberry a fruit?" I kid you not. But they got my order right after repeating it 3 times and I got it quickly which is pretty much all that matters to me. read more

ok food, but un-attentive waitstaff, gave me wrong order, lucky I'm not allergic to it, otherwise I could smell a potential law suit, hahaha

I don't know what is it with the servers at I-Hop. They can't seem to get your order right the 1st time around geezzzzzz, all I wanted were my eggs over easy, not scrambled. And I love the fact that while I was seated fairly quickly, I waited over 20 minutes for my order to be taken and another 10 minutes for my coffee to be served... Just kick me in the balls why don't you! read more

I swear i dont know what the deal is with these elizabeth ihoo but i came to this one expecting so much more then what i recieved what a dissappointment they gave me raw meat for pick up they told me to bring the burger alllllllll the way back at 945 on a work night and they will make me another one!!!! So i starved went a few weeks later for a second round and i argued with a waitred about what was on the menu wth then they still messed up my order needless to say third time wont be happening read more

It has been 6 or 7 years since I've been to an IHOP, so I was a little skeptical coming here for a late lunch one day. To my pleasant surprise, the service was great, the food is good, they even used fresh mushroom in my omelette. To add more bonus points, the bathroom was clean! It will probably be another 6 or 7 years until I go to another IHOP, but maybe I won't be so skeptical next time around. read more

the worst ihop ever! unhygienic - dirty dishes- they serve in dirty dishes! read more

Came on Sunday before doing pilgrimage shopping at ikea. Boy that was the busiest IHOP I have ever been too. 30 mins waiting the place people siting on the stairs ppl every where. They manage to get us in on time, chicken fajita omelette was great was not delayed, the pancake was awesome, with so many people waiter was professional and managed to stop by twice and ask how is everything is going. Other branches just gal apart when they get that many people in read more

This is the BEST IHOP in all of northern NJ hands down. I work nearby at Newark Liberty Airport and come here with co workers often. They are fast, polite and the food is awesome. The menu pictures always match the actual dish both in size and presentation. I couldn't ask for more. I will keep coming here as long as the door stays unlocked! read more

Beware!!! I ordered the Colorado omelette and it was served cold, seemed as if it had been pre-cooked and re-heated. Gross cheese. I asked for a fresh one and the same one came back out, microwaved 15 more seconds, apparently. At that point my only hope is to at least try to enjoy the pancakes. The problem was that the pancakes were also re-heated and couldn't even melt the butter. Avoid this food at all cost!!!!!!!! read more

Worse customer service ever they close early every single night. I called on Sunday night they picked up and said they only close at midnight during week. I walk over Monday at 11:30 pm and the guy says they close at 11. The website clearly says they close at 12am and they answer the phone until that time. I came over from the extended stay and the three employees are just standing around talking waiting to get off. read more

Busy restaurant with friendly and attentive wait staff. No wait for a table. There are not many choices in the area- not a bad choice, but nothing to brag about. The crepes were fresh but I was not crazy about the sugary fruit they put on top. If you are hungry and in a hurry, this is a good option. read more
