Can't talk about the food because NO ONE came to seat us. We stood there waiting for 5 minutes watching seated guests have their orders taken and food was being prepared. It's funny because they weren't even busy. I guess they can only handle 15 orders from seated guests at a time. read more

I have no idea what's going on at this location, but we waited 10 min and no one was working the front. We never got seated. There were several other folks waiting to seated as well. Pretty obvious customer service is low on the list. read more

In general, I do like a good IHOP restaurant. You know the ones where you can smell the food before you get to the door? Or you see, there's a wait and it's not because it's a holiday but because whoever they have in the kitchen is really taking time with the orders. Well, I'm giving this IHOP 2 stars, and I feel like that is being very gracious because this IHOP was one I know we are NOT returning to. It was basically empty. I mean parking lot empty, tables empty. We thought we scored because it was the day after Thanksgiving and figured people were still home in their turkey daze or shopping for various sales. We were wrong. I should have known from the sign on the door that said if there is an issue, give us an opportunity to fix it right away and contact the district manager. So we were seated right away. The seat looked like they wiped all the food from the table on the chair, so I asked if it could be cleaned. The guy wiped it, and I waited for the seat to dry off. The same guy took our orders... Or I should say tried to remember our orders. He didn't write anything down, so he was going off what he remembered. After ordering, we watched a few people come in for pick up orders and wait for quite a bit. I thought maybe they were short of staff due to the holiday. Then we saw a group come in and be seated, and then a little while later, they left. It seemed they were never serviced. Our table spread consisted of: the classic steakburger with unsalted fries and an additional side of pancakes, and The seasonal thick and fluffy french toast But instead of getting gingersnap apple or banana strawberry, I requested the apple and banana and a side of two scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese. The french toast part (which I would have thought would be more complicated) was correct. The scrambled eggs part.. so I'm guessing the guy figured he would make my meal a combo because I asked for eggs. In doing that, he never asked what meat I wanted or if I even wanted meat and anything regarding the hash browns. When he brought out the platter, it had a sausage link, a bacon link, the eggs, and hash browns. I was willing to keep the meal as a combo, but I said to the guy I dont eat pork, so I'm unable to eat any of this. He did ask what kind of sausage I would like instead, and I said I would take turkey. Since her brought out the turkey sausage and nothing else and never took the other plate away, it seemed that he expected me to just eat the remaining food around the pork which for me was not doable So I asked for it to be removed from the check rather than waiting longer for a new plate. In reality, I didn't want all of that to begin with. They took like $5 off but left the charge for the eggs on. We wrapped it up and gave it to the person sleeping in front of the old pizza hut so it wouldn't be wasted. We see why it was empty now. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if it's unfortunately closed by one of my next few visits to VA. It's sad because it really used to be a nice spot when I visited. It has been some years, though... read more

On today's episode of the food service/ restaurant industry sucks: We have IHOP in Suffolk, Va. The mothers and I are in town for a birthday celebration, and we stopped here for a quick bite. We would've been better off just grabbing something from a gas station. They weren't busy, and that should have told me something right then. We were seated, got our drinks, placed our orders, and waited...and we waited... and we waited Our food showed up looking like we ordered from wish.com Needless to say, a few things were missing from the turkey sandwich, and the onions on the Salisbury steak only walked past the grill. They were most definitely still raw. The children in the back on the grill were playing the entire time we were there, and they were more concerned about their colleagues' meals than the people that were actually paying. The sweet tea was the best thing about this visit. read more

Came in for a to go order. Server was nice enough. Food took a while for the place to be almost empty. Ordered a quick 2, got home started to eat, found a hair in my food, almost vomited. Tossed it in the trash. F'n DISGUSTING! No, it was not my hair, not even the same color. I will never return here. read more

Great food for a good value, sometimes the wait can be excessive but not enough servers contribute to that problem. If you have patience for the wait it's an excellent option for good food at a good price. read more

Slow service, long waits, plenty of workers visible. Doesn't make any sense. You would think with all the higher wages people world be happy to have a job. ​ read more

Well the entire experience was a disappointment. There were live, barely alive and dead bugs around the window sills. Nothing like a bugs crawling around at eye level. Service was extremely slow... no utensils given, had to ask for straws, didn't get refills on my "endless" coffee... and to top it off we ordered water in a cup for my son and was charged for a bottle of water. Wonder how many they get with that one. I've never called the health department on a restaurant before but I'll be calling Monday to make a complaint about how dirty everything was. read more

Been twice and both times were horrible. Went this morning and they sat us. Took our drink order. 10 mins later took our food order and then ten minutes later we still didn't have our drinks. After twenty minutes no drinks at all. Just got up and walked out. Never again. Horrible service. Suffolk may not have many breakfast places to begin with but this restaurant is the worst of the worst. read more

Family all went here for dinner tonight. Breakfast for dinner sounded good. Except they literally were out of coffee, milk, fruit, seafood... ordered a berry salad. Can't mess that up right? I literally got just lettuce and nasty unthawed chicken they put on it. Not edible. Was gross and slimy. How does IHOP not have coffee?? Sounds like the manager needs to go. Should have known this place was bad when zero people were there. Dirty tables. Just close down and build something better. Needs better waitstaff and new management for starters!! read more

Took 30 min. on a not busy Sun. AM. Asked for sausage, got very fatty bacon. Wife got berry salad but no dark greens like the picture...good tasted good otherwise. read more

I wish I could give zero stars about this awful place. Please do not waste your time stopping in this nasty restaurant our adventure began with servers and what look to be cooks arguing about who was going to seat me and my husband . The servers have nasty attitudes, and the whole entire restaurant is gross. I've stated to my server that the table was sticky, and she proceeded to spray me and the table with bleach water, and wipe the sticky stuff with a dry rag . after we realize how disgusting this restaurant was, we received our drinks. We did not take a single sip of the drinks, and we let our server know that we were going to be leaving, and we still had to pay for the drinks. I wouldn't have taken a sip of that drink if I was standing in the Sahara desert, please do not go to this restaurant . read more

Run from here . They need to send the health department and shut this place down . They served my granddaughter raw eggs then when I brought it up to them they said kids eat free soo... so they get a free illness? Everyone got food poisoning that night . Got to do better! read more

BE WARNED - TAKE OUT ORDERS. 1 out of 5 because that's how many times my order was ready when I ordered online. I've ordered 5 times as early as 3 hours in advance, and each time (except once) I've had to wait over 20 minutes. What's the point of ordering in advance if the order is not ready? TIP* Schedule the pickup time at least 30 minutes before you are planning to pick it up. read more

Over cooked eggs and hash browns bad order was placed day before and was not ready when driver went to pick up

The silverware was dirty and the waitress was rude Will NOT recommend going here Food was good tho read more

This place is bad! The front desk host had ZERO organization, he didn't know who was next, etc. the customers ran the front desk. Ton of empty tables and they still took forever to seat customers. I will not be returning to this IHOP read more

Should be a zero. Horrible service. Waited for 15 minutes as the waitress walked past us multiple times. Told us she would be right with us twice. Final placed our order and another 10 minutes go by with no drinks. We walked out. read more

Great service, waitress was the host and our server. She was very nice and friendly, hardworking girl. I ordered Chicken classic burger with fries and it was delicious. My husband ordered Steak and eggs with pancakes and steak was delicious he says. One negative, was they didn't have coffee filters, they ran out. Great experience, quite not a lot of people. Our waitress name was, Amarah she's very sweet. read more

Okay. So let me start off they messed up our order 4 times, and took 30 mins each max and it was still wrong. Food was burnt and they couldn't even make a happy face pancake And Dontrell (aka the manager) was very rude and lied saying he had a new cook and he messed up the order. When the manager was the one cooking. Very bad service overall do not recommend! Also the waiter that he was saying was the new cook is very nice. read more

Placed an online order because the phone number that is listed was not available/working. I had a pick up time of 10:54 but when I arrived, an additional 15 minutes was needed to complete the order. As I walked out, someone yelled, "hold on we forgot your French toast." I specifically asked for no cheddar on one of the omelets but that's what was on it. The hash browns were grease logged and burnt. There was maybe 2 employees that had masks covering the nose and mouth, rest had them hanging around chin. This was a horrible experience and will take this as a warning of where not to eat, I'll spend my money elsewhere. read more

Very dirty. I used to work here and the silverware and personal coffee things weren't washed properly. Quit 3 days later because of that and many other things read more

The eggs were under cooked, the waitress brought extra hashbrown and charged me. Plus she never came back to fill our drinks. She was up front talking with another waitress instead of bringing our drinks. The table was dirty and when I asked for a rag to wash the table off, she didn't bring one so I got up and asked someone else and they gave me a towel. They ran out of breakfast bowls. her name is Taylor R. Ihop is going down hill. read more

The hostess was friendly. We were seated before another couple, however, they got taken care of first. We were not acknowledged until I spoke with the hostess. When we did receive service, I was given a cup with lipstick on it. First and last time stopping here. read more

Arrive there with my family and was immediately greeted. Was seated in less than 3 minutes and recertification our drinks in 6 minutes from seating. That's where it ended. Our waiter disappeared, and we were waiting for 20 minutes before deciding to just leave. Management apologized and gave us our drinks for free, but literally was forgotten about. I will not be going back. read more

I didn't want to eat here, but the wife was insistent. We had a great experience and the food was served correct, fast and was delicious. We will go back. read more

IHOP - Omelette menu - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Suffolk, Virginia

We were fairly happy with service here. Food was decent for the price. But last time we went, we ordered two adult meals and two kids meals, which should have been free. When I went to check out, I was told the kids meals were not free because we were supposed to order a drink with the adult meals. Our waitress knew we were looking for the free kids meals and she never said anything about us ordering waters. I have never heard of such a rule. I asked to speak to a manager but was told there was not one there at that time. I will never go back. read more

Okay soooo I usually don't do this b/c people can have a bad day! But I just can't keep this too myself!! First off after getting off a 12 hour shift I suggested to my husband let's go to IHOP just he and I (we have 5 kids, so just us two happens like never).... So first when we got there we noticed a few dead flies in the window seal and on the blind we ignored it. The waitress came over and she got our drink orders and when she came back with our coffees she told us she didn't have creamer just milk we told her fine and asked for sugar as well because there was none at the table. She left and took her awhile to come back. We could hear her going back and forth with the cooks about our order. She entered it one way and was verbally telling them what she didn't know how to do in the system and the cooks were a little frustrated. She came back to tell me that that they didn't have part of my order that I wanted so I gave a substitute for it and when she relayed the message the cooks responded with frustration. We asked "again" for the milk and sugar for our now cold coffees as well as fresh coffees due to ours sitting waiting for the milk and sugar the first time. At this point my husband was ready to go and I said no it's alright. He again pointed out that it wasn't enough people in the restaurant for the wait times we were experiencing on something as simple as coffee and milk. When she came back to the table with the milk in a glass I asked for to go silverware due to ours being dirty and a ant crawled crossed the table while she was standing there. She killed it with her finger right on the table and at this point we walked out... agreeing to NEVER go back to that location! read more

The worst iHop and cook service that I have experienced. We ordered food online with a pick up time of 10:54 Online was the only option because the phone number on the website is the wrong number.(I was 6 minutes from IHOP). The first thing I noticed during this pandemic, Staff either had No mask on or wore it below there chin particular the cooks who handle the food. My food was finally brought to me 20 minutes after the pick- up time. The food was an complete disappointment. Oily hash browns, two pieces of steak on the "STEAK" omelet, cheese on an omelette marked No cheese. And luckily I was chased down on the way out with food that wasn't placed in my bag. This was not only a terrible experience, but very poor customer service. I gave 1 star for the waitress that apologized for my long wait time. read more

Had the pleasure of dining here for brunch with my husband a few weeks ago. We were seated right away. (It was a Thursday afternoon after all.) Our server introduced herself to us almost immediately and started us off with drinks. After perusing the menu, we were able to place our orders. We never felt rushed by the server during or after the process. Our food came out hot and tasty and exactly as ordered, with the warmed syrup our server offered to us. So no complaints about the food or the server. I did visit the restroom. It wasn't clean the way I like it and there are gaps between the stall bars and the walls, but it wasn't horribly filthy either. I did see an employee enter to use the facilities, but due to the line, walked right back out using a napkin to grasp the handle. Not a huge offense as regardless there are hand washing stations around to use. The only part we were unsure about was where to pay. In the end we left a tip on the table and paid upfront. (They were having a huge training that afternoon so the floor was a bit sparse.) All in all, no real complaints here. read more

Rayna was a nice waiter and she was so fun I definitely hope to come back and see her here she was great about my Allergie and I had the best meal ever Pork Sausage LinksBacon Link yummmy and ham and ham and hash browns yummy thank rayna for this an amazing experience read more

Been here several times and I think it is one of those deals that if you are in the mood for pancakes or an omelet (comfort food), then come to a place like this. My wife and I were killing time and we just wanted to get a cup of coffee. They seem to have pretty good coffee. For a food item, we decided to get some toast and hash browns. Everything was great and what made the place good this time around was the great service. Like every place that falls into this category, the service can be spotty, depending on who is working at the time. This night, the hostess opened the door for us and the waitress was bending over backwards for us. Coffee was good. Pancakes are always good and if I was still eating meat, I would have the Colorado omelet. Always yummy. Looking at the reviews for this place, it all depends who is working that day and who is having a rough day it seems. I will come back if necessary, but I wont go out of my way to make it happen. Another thing that hurt was that there was no wifi there. It sort of caught me off guard and forced me to talk to my wife.... read more

Welcome to iHop. Just like the rest of the reviews, iHop is in normal form. Chain restaurant with a chain flavor. If this is what you're looking for, then you found the place. There isn't a Dennys here in town. Came in Saturday morning at opening. 7am. Looks like the town doesn't open up till 7 unless you go to Mickey D's (24 hour drive through). Seated promply, ordered, and food brought in a timely manner. Just like you'd expect from a chain. Got my regular coffee, water, 2 eggs over Med. Bacon, seasoned red potatoes (substituted the hash browns) and sourdough toast. Same as I get at the other breakfast place in town, the Plaid Turnip. Service was quicker here. Coffee (fresher) , and potatoes (actually seasoned), and bacon (4 there 2 here) were better there. As was the price ($8.88 there, $11.29 here). Wanted to make a comparison of the 2 places in town. Another difference is the selection. If you're use to the iHop menu, then this is the place to go. If you like the chain store consistency, then iHop wins hands down. Good morning and have a great day. read more

IHOP - Traditional iHop coffee crafe. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Suffolk, Virginia

The best thing that could happen to IHOP is for it to close and something decent open to take its place. A few years ago it used to be pretty good, but something has happened because service has taken a drastic nosedive. Two of us went in and were seated. There was almost no one else there. We waited and waited and no one ever came to our table. Servers were working because we could see them talking to one another and looking at their cell phones. After 15 minutes of not even an acknowledgment that we were in the place, we got up and walked out. We won't be back. read more

This has to be the worst IHOP I've ever ate at. I've given this location multiple chances but the only thing they are consistent on is messing up your order or never making it. The manager clearly has no clue on how to operate an establishment. The cooks clearly failed standardized testing cause comprehension is non existent back there. I feel bad for the servers on the floor there. Either put new management in this location or shut it down! read more

No manager at this I hop!!! It's pancake day, and there is no manager here! At all there are only two servers(who are both in high school!!!)...they have worked here less than a month, and there is no management here to help these poor kids! Shame!!! Terrible. read more
