Great service, and the staff were very friendly. The food was delicious and had a comforting, homemade flavors. Just a heads-up: Be sure to double-check the prices on your receipt before paying, as some of the charges did not match the prices listed on the menu. Our server mentioned that there was a system glitch. read more

IHOP - American Near Me - San Jose, California

Shoutout to server Anthony ! He was very sweet and amazing. After a long evening of karaoke , my group and I decided to stop here for a late night bite to eat. Little did we know that someone within our party would witness a cook leave the restroom without washing their hands. I shared this information to other staff members as for me to eat somewhere I feel better knowing that when my food is being prepared / cooked / handled it is done with the decency of clean hands. Not sure that I'd be back after this. This created disappointment / unsettling feeling for me. No service from me. read more

IHOP - American Near Me - San Jose, California

It isn't very often that I visit a corporate chain restaurant when craving breakfast food, but today I wasn't really craving breakfast, so much as something sweet, so as I was pondering: 'what could satisfy My sweet tooth and make a minimal dent in My pocketbook,' I passed IHOP(International House of Pancakes)- known for delicious pancakes. Delicious pancakes=something sweet, and they offer a value menu where 1of the 5 items happens to offer pancakes! Add a lil chocolate syrup to those thangs, and Bodddah-bing, boddah-bang- Sweet craving and money saving dilemma solved! Now you all know Me, I'm a stickler for excellent customer service, and Nolan, the young man, who waited on Me this evening(4-17-25), brought that! I didn't have to ask him for anything. He saw water glass was empty and automatically provided more water. The vibe tonight was nice and chill, with a slow flow of customers, so there wasn't much of a wait, and everything was delivered nice and hot. I ordered my Main Mane awaiting my arrival home a BLT to go. read more

My friend and I came here on a Saturday morning. It was quite busy, but we were still seated upon arrival. It is Ihop so you know what you're getting what you're here. Breakfast foods are standard but delivered just as you expect. The service was pretty good given how busy they were. Parking at this Ihop can be tough as it is a small lot. read more

Right next to Japantown in San Jose and it was a stop that my friends and I made before heading over to Fanime. It wasn't super busy since it was the Thursday before Memorial Day weekend in the afternoon, but there was still a decent group of customers inside. Service was friendly and efficient and we got our food out pretty quickly. Quality of the food is on par with any other IHOP location. Portions were quite generous and I had a lot of my chicken fried steak left over to microwave in the hotel room afterwards. The gravy added the moistness that the chicken was lacking due to the dryness of the breading, but overall decent and hit the spot after the 6 hour drive up from SoCal. Decent IHOP location. read more

Got seated right away during the middle of the night. Fairly clean and organized restaurant. Bathrooms were clean which is always a plus. Parking can be limited during busier times. Food took awhile to get to us even though it wasn't that busy. Food was decent but pricey for what you get (my breakfast plate was over $16, not including the coffee). I like how they give you a mini pot on the side for the coffee. It's convenient to have a spot like this open during odd hours, and I appreciate the hard working staff, but I don't think I'd ever go here during a normal time. read more

Good location, service and food is fantastic! There's a tall kid who works there who seems to be a very good & hard worker checking in on everyone and making sure customers come in hungry and leave happy. Thanks! read more

The best thing about this place is that they're open 24 hours! I would definitely recommend it, especially when everything else is closed. The pricing is reasonable, and the service was excellent. Pamela helped our table and was great from the start. She was very patient with us and offered helpful recommendations. She checked on us frequently and went the extra mile to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. She truly deserves a raise for providing such exceptional service. The food was delicious and came out fairly quickly. The parking lot, however, is a bit tricky. The entrance is narrow and easy to miss, and you may end up passing it and seeing an exit that you unfortunately cannot enter. One concern I noticed was that the ice cream tub and whipped cream were completely exposed. Customers walk by with easy access, and there were no lids or coverings. This is extremely unhygienic, as someone could cough, sneeze, or touch it, not to mention flies, which do not appear to be prevented from making direct contact. The ambiance is okay, nothing particularly special, but they did a great job decorating for Christmas. Service - 5/5 Price - 4/5 Ambiance - 3/5 Taste - 4/5 read more

Today was one of those days when you decide to eat out. We decided to go to IHOP here by downtown San Jose because we like the food there, but today, in particular, the service we received wasn't adequate. From the moment we arrived, they gave us dirty looks. We sat down, and after a few minutes, the waitress came to take our drinks, which, by the way, took longer than the food itself. Karen H, our waitress, never once during the entire time we were eating was kind enough to come and ask if everything was alright or offer us another drink. I would understand if the restaurant had been full and they didn't have time to attend to all the tables, but there were only four tables for two waitresses. I understand; I'm a waitress too, but I always try to give the best service with the best attitude, not looking down on or judging people by their appearance read more

I was helped by the amazing wonderful Guadalupe. Very excellent customer services. Felt like I belonged here and felt very cozy. Felt like home. read more

I like this place. It's always crowded, they usually are accommodating. Especially to older folks. Went to the one on First street in San Jose. My go to, it's near my home. The food is consistent and very good. Looking for a place to eat, it's a good place and a decent price range. read more

Ordered delivery from this IHOP two times and pickup one time in like under two weeks. All 3 times we received a free breakfast sampler (!) - so that was a really good deal. Service fee was higher than expected and I live relatively far from this restaurant, but other than that everything about the whole experience has been very good (hence 3 orders). Pancakes are delicious, and I highly recommend the chicken fajita omelet. Personally I think 2-3 dishes can probably feed 4-6 people (depending on how you eat). Service was attentive and very accommodating when I was there for a coffee waiting for pickup. Would recommend and will very likely order from here again in the future (primarily due to the free breakfast sampler). read more

Was passing through San Jose and wanted a quick breakfast, so IHOP came into mind. We were seated fast and served right away. It was very peaceful and quiet, which made it very delightful. The food was exceptional; the pancakes were incredibly fluffy and light. I recommend this IHOP in San Jose. read more

IHOP - American Near Me - San Jose, California

This is my first time at this location. It's usually crowded when you walk by, which indicates that this is a solid choice for the chain to eat at, mainly because it's open 24 hours. The place isn't huge but has several tables outside, so it's a good choice, weather permitting. The bathroom and the establishment are clean, and there's no bad smell. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the service is fast. Overall, it's a solid choice for enjoying typical IHOP food. read more

Am I really going to review an IHOP where everyone knows exactly what you're gonna get? YES. Where else are you going to get a chicken fried steak, short stack of pancakes, a lovely salad, hash browns, and a spinach mushroom omelette in the middle of the night? And at a good price! The service was really friendly, the restaurant was safe and clean (even at that time of day), and everything was cooked just right. I tell ya, that's a crisp chicken fried steak! read more

IHOP - Country Fried Steak (salad and pancakes as the sides). Also a Spinach & Mushroom Omelette with crispy hash browns. - American Near Me - San Jose, California

I love breakfast food! My boyfriend and I came to ihop on a Tuesday around 4pm and it was practically empty. I will say the furniture at this location feels like it's made for shorter people because it's so low. You will know what I mean if you come here haha. No complaints though! I decided to order off the kids menu because I didn't want to eat much. I got the happy face pancake combo but you're probably wondering why there's no happy face on the pancake. I had the choice of chocolate or buttermilk pancake and just wanted the buttermilk and no chocolate chips. I think they use the chocolate chips to make the happy face so keep that in mind. It also comes with eggs of your choice, one pork sausage and one bacon strip. It was a good and standard kids breakfast. :) My boyfriend got the New York cheesecake pancakes which he loved. He also got 4 pieces of turkey bacon with another plate of scrambled eggs, a hasbrown and two sausages. He loved his whole meal! read more

IHOP - Happy Face Pancake Combo - American Near Me - San Jose, California

I love IHOP every time I go. This time I ended up at this location because they now have another business sharing space with them that sells Philly Cheesesteak. Yum. I was pleasantly surprised to find this out. The service at IHOP is great. They actually brought my order out to my car and I was a happy camper. Glad to see them expanding. This helps restaurants stay in business these days and it caters to many different appetites. Bon Appetit read more

DO NOT ORDER FOR DELIVERY! Ordered various omelettes for delivery. And each time, my orders were missing the advertised salsa, sour cream... No longer ordering food for delivery from this IHOP. read more

I feel ashamed to have chosen a corporate chain restaurant for a meal. There are few options at 6AM as I had dropped off someone at the airport and needed a place to chill over breakfast before heading into the office later. Lowest quality ingredients dominate the fare, probably using a GMO product for their low/no fiber pancakes. I can picture corporate bean counters figuring out how to get away with the cheapest fillers at the highest price possible before driving away customers. At least the coffee was decent and plentiful, served with a smile. Bathroom was reasonably clean where I finished my visit with a slurry deposit. read more

Great service, Anthony, our waiter was prompt with our orders, refills, and clearing plates. Good place for a late dinner after a big night out. Decent food and a no judgment attitude. read more

Located on N. First St between E. Taylor St. & Jackson St. Limited parking if going during rush hour. We were looking for late dinner on Friday night after a long event at the SAP Center so IHop is always convenient. We were seated right away; Staff is welcoming and friendly but not attentive; The restaurant is clean and organized; Food was decent but the mashed potatoes did not taste fresh during our visit. Overall, we had a satisfying experience at this location and happy to be able to grab an actual dinner late at night. read more

Parking can be hit or miss, since it's a small lot. But just go around the block and there is street parking in the residential area. Service is typically quick and the food is decent for a chain restaurant. If you're craving pancakes or breakfast food, you'll have plenty to choose from. read more

Right as waitress set our meals down she gave us our check, didn't check on us.. as for the kids eat free deal from 4pm-10pm daily with the purchase of an adult meal, this location doesn't do it. When I asked her to fix the check to reflect the deal she said they don't do it anymore. I'm unsure of other ihops but this location doesn't.. read more

I remember getting into an argument with a restaurant owner who was upset that I gave his restaurant a 3 star rating when I had given another chain a 4. My view is that each serve a different purpose and you can't say that all chains are bad...plus the food and service vary. I happen to be a fan of IHOP...don't judge me, OK. I do. I got the strawberries and cream crepe combo which came with egg, hash browns and bacon. Yummy. The only complaint is that the service was slow and it took double the time they said it would take for the food to be ready on the phone. This location looks like it used to a Weinershchitzel based on the unique shape of the building. They have outdoor seating which is good. Not sure what to think about the neighborhood which has a lot of bail bond stores. read more

My son and I came to this location in the afternoon. There was no wait and the service was good. I would have said this was a good experience, until I went to the restrooms. All the restrooms were out of service. How do you have a restaurant that caters to families without restrooms. I could understand if a Plummer was onsite working on an issue but there was no one in site. If you want to come to this location, make sure to use a restroom elsewhere first. read more

Pancakes are my favorite, this spot always is good and very nice staff. My coffee was cold that is the only reason I give them 3 stars

Fabiola the waitress is very kind and will provide excellent and succinct service. The food looks delicious. I'll finish the review after I've eaten. Ok. You should know if I don't love it. I don't write a review. When I go to a classic American diner I want about six things. Hot coffee that gets refilled or comes in quantity. Crispy bacon. Eggs the way I want them. Flour that tastes proper. Syrup that's flavorful. Sausage that tastes good. I got these six things at IHoP. I love the American diner experience. The kindness of the hostess. Being left alone but looked after. Food that's delivered with speed. The heat of the playing. The fluffiness of the flours. The crispness of that bacon. The flavor of the sausage. Most important, and they're all important, are the eggs; they should come out the way you request them. All of these things were delivered. The experience was great. I'm satisfied at six AM and I'm ready to start what's going to be a great day. I couldn't ask for more more. Nothing like being struck with the gratitude when every element of your meal is perfect. Thank you everyone at San Jose IHoP. They provide excellent service to every customer and you know because they treated me, a nobody, like a king in his castle. :) read more

Ordered to go because I love me some breakfast. This was generous!! I ordered the Big Steak omelette which comes with mushrooms, tomatoes, hashbrown and steak. So generous! Then I also got NY Cheesecake pancakes as my side. These were soft and fluffy and it came with glazed strawberries, whipped cream, butter and syrup. I could not get enough of these pancakes. So so soft! I love their pancakes haha. The omelette was well-seasoned and the beef was nice. I loved the ideas of having hashbrown inside. I would definitely get this again. Super hearty. The to-go was great and well packaged. Thanks! read more
