Wait was long on a weekend which is normal. Seated after 20 mins. Took long time for our waitress to come to us. Even for drinks. So we decided to order drinks and our meal in case it took way to long. read more

Excelente service Super clean Prompt serving even while short handed.... My server Rosa was so amazing with her sevice... IHOP on Lancaster Blv in Salem, Oregon read more

Do not order for delivery from here! Order was incomplete, and portions were ridiculously small. We ordered 2 omelettes, which came with a side dish for each, but we only received 1 of those. Which was toast- with no butter and was hard and dry. The hash browns for the other omelette was missing. We also ordered a chicken sandwich- which came as ordered, and a turkey melt with Mac n cheese- which was literally 2 bites worth. When I called to let them know there were issues, the woman on the phone was rude and unhelpful and told me to come in to talk to her manager about the side dishes. She said it was all pre- measured (the Mac n cheese) and it WAS 4oz. I told her there was absolutely no way 2 spoonfuls would equal 1/2 cup- which is 4 Oz. The food itself was ok, nothing to really get excited over, which is a change from the last time we ordered from here. To say it was a disappointment is an understatement. read more

Service was great. They only had one server, which was weird. I'm used to going into IHOP and it being bustling with business. The drinks were not brought to us promptly but I was fine as they only had one server, however my husband was not ok with that. Otherwise, our food was good, came hot and presentable. I'd come back, and despite how he was feeling about the drinks being served rather late, he'd come back, too. read more

Should have looked more closely at the ratings on Yelp before choosing to have dinner here, but it was close to our hotel. Location and appearance was indicative of what we experienced, a franchise that was in distress and trying to cut expenses in every way imaginable. The area where you would normally pay your bill, appears to now be a storage area, and they have moved the Register to the "food service" area. We won't visit this location again. read more

I recently visited the Salem Oregon one off Lancaster rd. I ordered the create your own omelet and picked maybe 4 toppings but was very surprised to see my omelet meal came to $18.99. The omelet (egg only) is $9.99 then the toppings each were $1.09. That's ridiculous that the egg costs $9.99. That should cover the omelet and at least 2 toppings then extra toppings maybe $1.09. But I've had an omelet at a fancy restaurant and only paid $15 for the entire meal. I'm so disappointed read more

I like this iHop location but my food took forever and my waiting time was a bit long too. The food selection was fine, my service was fine, but the wait times were not good at all. I had a ok experience at IHOP. Tell your employees to keep the maple syrup because it's good. IHOP is ok. read more

The first time I ordered from IHOP they did not deliver the drinks nor 2 of the meals my kids and I ordered. The second time I took my kids there. They follow Covid regulations very well so that's good. But, they made the wrong milkshakes for us, did not cook half of my order, and when I politely asked for the missing order and for water the waiter had a condescending attitude. We won't be coming back. The Original Pancake House has always delivered perfectly and tastes better. read more

We checked in and was put on the waitlist I asked and they said there were two ahead of us We waited 1/2 hour During which time they took 3 different parties and sat them one just walked in and said we would like a booth or table and they said we can seat you right now I went up and asked and she said there is still one ahead of you I said we sat here and watched you seat 3 Different parties how can we still be waiting if there was only two ahead of us Got a blank look Left went to Elmers walked in and got a seat Pretty sad for IHOP to do this read more

it was horrible - all around. The general ambience was of cheap quality. The food didn't come out for a long while, and when it did it was incomplete and cold. it took 15 minutes to finally complete and bring out our order, also taking three waves to do so. No one checked on our table. When the rest of our order did come up it was cold and tasted off. Going to Sharis for any meal time would be like a 5-star restaurant compared to this. I would rate it no stars, if I could. It was so bad, I wouldn't take any vouchers of compensation for this experience if they were offered. We will never be back. $78 for a meal that's worse than elementary cafeteria food - no thank you. read more

They have always been on point with our service from wait times to always checking up on us. Our food has been correct and if the food doesn't come out right, they will gladly fix it. Always been my go to for an awesome breakfast. read more

Walk in the door and you are met by a hostess who tells you that you aren't good enough for a booth. Instead they are stuffing customers into one side of the restaurant. After being seated, prepare to be ignored for a while. There are no manners in any of the employees to include the manager. A server finally came to talk to us and mid sentence just walks away to go take an order from another table, who has already placed their order. After returning, asks what she can get for us. I replied "an apology" for walking away mid sentence. She quickly blamed the manager, for making her do it. We proceeded to order, where we were meet with inattentive repeatedly asking what we just said. Fine, just bring me food. But as we are waiting the waitress decides to complain to another table about how I was mean to her because of her rude behavior. Next thing you know they are hugging in the middle of the restaurant. So, we paid for my husbands coffee and the three sips of hot chocolate that I had. No I don't want to add a tip. Except this, learn how to treat people. I am paying you for service, I am not an inconvenience that interrupts your day. read more

I don't know why I even bother with these breakfast chains anymore. I guess I'm still searching for some nostalgia or childhood memories. My childhood seems to be dead, I guess. This particular Location is disgusting, understaffed and the servers are the absolute worst humans on the planet. These servers apparently can't do the job well enough to keep even me (a pretty damn tolerant of people's shenanigans and bullshit kind of person) from staying for a meal. Sat in the back, place is packed. Twice the server comes to our table, drink order then food order; in both instances the server interrupted us in mid sentence to step away and help another table. Granted the customers at the other table were extremely high maintenance and totally rude, but it's my fucking turn you idiots!! We let it be known to the manager (who was trying to run interference) that this sort of stuff is not cool. Manager seemed annoyed that we even complained. Then a whole other mess ensues with hurt feelings and displays of affection with staff and customers that make my wife an I look like the villains. Fuck this place; we left promptly. Oh; and Oreo pancakes??!!! Fucking disgusting!! If I wanted cookies I'd have gone to 7-11 you stupid bitch!!! read more

Just stay away- terrible service, non personable waitresses, was seated and immediately asked if we knew what we were getting, took our order and brought our food. Next time we saw the waitress she dropped the check on our table and simply said here's your check before immediately walking away. Never got asked how the food was, if we needed a refill/more pancakes (ordered all you can eat pancakes)/napkins/ or to-go boxes. Food was served barely warm, butter didn't even halfway melt on the food, my daughters chicken strips tasted like they were fried in burnt oil. Tables stayed dirtied with dishes, partition had fingerprints all over it and my booth seat was sticky. Customer at the table behind us was listening to music and videos on his phone loudly for the whole duration of our 40 minute stay. The only thing they seemed to care about was rushing people out as soon as possible so they could go back to standing around talking to one another. read more

we went there at 10 am . 2/27/201 we first there was from what we could see 10 tables open . they made us wait 30 mins . then we got to table 20 mins to get drinks .then another 20 mins to order . at 11:45 asked about order . oh your next .. well 12:15 told waitress to cancel order .it was even started to be cooking .. read more

Worst waitress in my history didn't bring our order for 30 minutes everyone's food cold we waited 20 more minutes for her to come back I told her that our food was cold especially my pancakes the butter on top was still cold it didn't even melt she took it came back about fifteen minutes same plate same pancakes butter still not melting plate was warm but not the pancakes it was my birthday so I didn't complain she returned 20 minutes later with check but didn't ask us if everything was ok all the time we were there we are not going back again. read more

Very very very disappointed!!! DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CREDIT CARD FOR THEM TO SWIPE!!!! WALK IT UP AND HAND IT OVER!!! Watch them like a hawk!! My husband and I were double charged for a meal and even though I presented the receipt they are still arguing the fact. I then had to call my credit card company and report it as a fraudulent charge. We had to jump through all these hoops because they f*€ked up!!! This IHOP is a joke and I got charge for someone else's meal. Bad service, very bad service all the way around!!! read more

The burger drained 1/4 cup of grease onto the plate during the first bite and the bun was instantly soggy. I do not recommend getting a burger here. The chips were ok. read more

I'm going to be ridiculed for this, I know, but I have to be honest. Their steak that's smothered with grilled onions, mushrooms and swiss cheese is really good. I mean, I'm craving right now. I know it's a weird thing to get at IHOP, but it happened once and now I'm in love. Mmmmmm... I've also had their omelets and pancakes. Also good. Service s good too. Cheerful ladies doing their job and keeping my water glass full. Once again, though, it's on Lancaster and I avoid that godawful road like it's the plague. :( read more

This was the absolute worst experience ever I called ahead placed my order was told it would be ready in twenty minutes I arrived on time ended up waiting an hour just to be told my order had never been placed is there a way to file a law suit for this kind of thing I'm not sure if it's because I'm black read more

1. Food: delicious. I am on a diet and can't have a lot of things. I came here and was able to have a totally diet compliant meal and it was delicious. Also, they had chulala. I love chulala and restaurants usually don't have it. 2. price: firstly, I love Oregon. No sales tax makes everything so much cheaper. Also, switching to egg whites was only .50 more. AMAZING! When do you ever see that?!? 3. Service: one word- Charity. Our waitress was also the hostess. She was on top of it, worked hard and was super friendly the whole time! Thanks Charity! read more

Terrible service. Would not return. The entire place was cold and my waitress must have been too worried about her large group tip to worry about my coffee or water. Or food. If I wast waiting for another nearby business to open,I would have left. read more

Here's a good one: Our bill was slightly under $20, so we gave the server a $20, a $5 and asked for change. We got back the $5 we gave her and a quarter. I guess that's a way to guarantee a really big tip (or a very small one). The pancakes and toast were stale, the bacon was undercooked and the juices tasted watered-down. On the other hand, the eggs were excellent, enough to merit an additional star (barely). Oh, and we had a couple of ants visit us during our meal. Not an excellent dining experience. read more

Enjoying lunch in the morning with a broad selection of meals and deals! What a wonderful way to start the day may I say.. read more

IHOP - Bomb dont mind the advertising...lol - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Salem, Oregon

this one star Only applies to the hostess (Philip)! We requested table for 8. When we we were seated we realized we were actually 9. We pulled an extra chair and notified server that we accidentally miss counted. The sever became upset and proceeded to give us a speech of on the importance of having an accurate count. I apologized and he proceeded to counting his rant! And I quote" For future reference, you need to count correctly so we know how to set up correctly. Now we have to figure out to rearrange". Many in our group kept apologizing, but he just went on and on. So for future reference make sure you count your party correctly or you will be hearing a huge rant. On a positive note, food was great, manager and sever had great customer service. read more

I don't expect VIP service at IHOP -- this isn't Morton's Steakhouse. What I do expect is reasonable service and good food. On this visit the food was good, as is usually the case with this location. What I didn't expect was to basically be ignored by our server. Our server, who wasn't on break or lunch, was attending to her other tables and ignored us for over 10 minutes after we were originally seated. After asking another server to call Stephanie, our server, to the table --- we waited another 3 minutes and she finally came over. She took our order, with no apology for the delay and never brought our drinks. After waiting another 10 minutes the buss boy, Kevin, proactively offered to grab the drinks our server forgot. He was our hero! We got our food shortly thereafter and enjoyed that portion of our experience. I was whole heartedly disappointed in this experience, specifically Stephanie who didn't seem to care about her lack of effort and attention. We won't be going to this location again anytime soon. And when we do, we will request to not sit in her section. read more

Someone call the service police right away, there is a suspect that is ready to be apprehended here. This IHOP is similar to all of franchised locations around the US, but with ridiculously terrible service. The food was great -- my hashbrowns were crispy as can be, my eggs were fluffy, my toast was buttered just right. The prices were a bit high for a diner in Oregon, but justifiable for the food one would be getting. Our waitress, while full of smiles, lacked the courtesy to ask us how everything was going let alone be attentive to our needs. Her manager who worked the front counter, was grumpy and was rushing us as we attempted to pay. I may dread eating there now and feel bad for the people who work there who have to deal with such poor attitudes in service. read more

Not sure why some reviews are bad for this place. The eggs were perfectly cooked (I am really picky about my eggs being the right over easy consistency), & pancakes were definitely on point. BF loved them! I would gladly have breakfast for an early dinner anytime. Everything was freshly cooked also. :) I'll most likely be coming back soon! read more

IHOP - Banana Nutella crépes! Plus hash browns, bacon, eggs, blueberry pancakes, & sausages. NOM NOM - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Salem, Oregon

The cheeseburger was great, the fries were nicely spiced and good as well. I lived the mango lived tea it was the best! My waitress Melissa was probably the nicest in the entire restaurant she was super sweet! I would go back but I don't usually eat the type of foods on there menu so I don't know if I would but maybe if I'm looking for a desert and good service! read more

See all

Just walked in with my wife and 3 kids. Restaurant was maybe 1/3 full and a server walked by shaking her head when she saw us. The hostess went to check on available seating, which there was ample room. She returned and said it would be a 10 minute wait. read more

I was a bit surprised by this one. I went here only because of a team event and they were able to accomodate us. My last couple of visits to an IHOP have been dismal to say the least. So I was pleasantly surprised by this one. It was clean!! and not run down. The food was delcious and came very quickly. I also love the promotion of kids eating free after 4pm every day. A very nice touch. My only complaint is that we were a really big group and they only had one waitress to take our orders. There were multiple tickets and our kids were in different areas. So ordering took a long time. We had reservations ahead of time, so I think they could have staffed up a bit better for that. But that aside, the orders came super quick, that some were done eating before others had their orders taken. It was the best of a difficult situation, but I downgrade a star for that. There were two or three others bringing food in. Maybe one of them could have taken orders too?? Overall a good experience and tasty food. Like I said, other stores in the chain aren't too good anymore. If this one was close to home, I just might be a regular customer. The local operation could learn from this one. Enjoy what you have Salem! read more

Nothing bad and it's obvious the food is great, friendly service, fresh and clean! The egg surely taste fresh, country fried steak is fresh, and pancake were even freshly homemade! Thanks IHOP! read more

Busy place , Covid seating , everyone wearing masks, friendly staff, had to wait about 40 minutes to be seated, but it was Saturday and with limited seating it made sense. Tina the restaurant manager was awesome, brought out our coffee and was very personable and helpful with just the right sense of Humor. read more

Came with my mom to have lunch she is diabetic and they took for ever to bring our food. I had to get her a candy cuz her sugars dropped

Perfectly average IHOP. We go there every time we get their email offers. Always enjoy going to IHOP and see what's new in their "Featured" menu. In this occasion, we were able to try the Jelly Donut and the Banana Nut Crunch pancakes. Quite good! Service was a little slow. We got water (the only drink we ordered) after waiting for about 10 minutes. No one seemed specially friendly or cheerful, but they weren't rude either and got the job done. Like I said, perfectly average. read more

I enjoyed my burger. The basic Steakhouse burger that was on special for 6.99 with unlimited fries. Burger was cooked well, as requested. Came with the onions grilled, as I specified. The fries are decent, medium of the road fries that came crisp and hot. I had plain water, and the cup was always full, which considering I probably drank 4 glasses or so, is saying something kudos to wait staff. read more

We sat down and were greeted by our server Savannah who was very nice and helpful and in the middle of getting our orders her manager walked over (Tina) and interrupted her, and saw a table next to us that didn't have drinks but already had their food and began to reprimand Savannah right in front of us and made her stop getting our order to go to the other table and get their drinks. Savannah did what she said and left us wondering what was going on. Savannah began crying and delivered their drinks and came back to us to get our order (again being very nice and helpful). After she got our order Tina came over to us and asked if we wanted HER to retake our order and we said NO Savannah did great. Then she walked over to a guy in our party and smacked him on the shoulder asking if he was done with his menu so she could stop hounding Savannah on getting his order. Tina was SOOO rude and inappropriate and treated her employees terribly. We have ALL worked in restaurants and cannot believe she works for a company as big and established as IHOP. We will never go there again as long as she works there. IHOP, Please take action immediately. And offer Savannah an apology and some serious help on moving forward from being treated so terribly. read more

IHOP? More like Icrap. Showed up at 8:45 pm to fill me with some fluffy pancakes with my homies, but they closed the restaurant 15 min before they were actually supposed to close. Big sad. Big thumbs down. read more

I have been here only a handful of times, and EVERY time I experience the same three things: 1) it's busier than busy 2) good food 3) good service I've eaten different things each time I'm there, and have yet to be disappointed. Breakfast usually makes me sick, but I like IHOP. Today was the first time I haven't been completely impressed with my waitress; usually we get someone who is running around like crazy to make sure her patrons are completely satisfied. Today's wasn't noticeably attentive or inattentive. Usually anywhere from a 5-20 minute wait for seats on a Sunday, but that's because Sunday is quite obviously the best day to go out and have breakfast. Food, as always, is delicious and I leave feeling so full that I need a nap. :) read more

The service at this ihop was horrible. It took 30 minutes for anyone to take our order and once we did finally get served my group got treated poorly. Don't go here read more
