    Me and my boyfriend ordered from this IHOP this morning and we got the have it all breakfast. He got Tres leches pancakes and I got the New York cheesecake, pancake substitutes. My order was the classic breakfast combo. And we also got another breakfast con go with toast with no pancakes. It was absolutely disgusting. Usually it's very good in store and they never disappoint, but whenever you order out it always disappoints the portions were super small compared to the ones you get in store. The food was cold, and they didn't even give the toppings to my New York cheesecake pancakes. Everything tasted like it was premade and two days old. Compared to whenever you are in the store and it taste very fresh. Also, we got the hot cocoa and my boyfriend poured his out because it tasted very chalky and he looked at the bottom of it and this was at the bottom absolutely disgusting. I recommend going inside and eating because the people are very nice and food is usually very fresh, but DO NOT order to go!!!!

    They served me tea with chunks floating in it and didn't seem concerned. The avocado was yellow and rock hard. Maybe only go here for pancakes and bring your own drink.

    I'm giving it 2 stars because the food was actually pretty good! But we waited over an hour for our food and it wasn't even that busy. The ceiling was dripping water onto our table. It's the 2nd time I've been here and both times I waited forever for the food. I don't think I'd return to this location.

    Terrible service. Orders were wrong. Food was good until we found broken class in the syrup containers that landed on our pancake. We actually never received our new batch of pancakes after. Service took forever but server Cassandra was quick on her feet to chase us outside over a mobile app pay not going thru. Worst I hop I've been to. Don't recommend. just head to Waffle House or anywhere else.

    This IHOP is starting to show its wear. Been here for a few years but they get loads of business especially on the weekend - so they must be doing something right. I typically get the breakfast sampler here and at every other IHOP because they are almost always the same no matter where you are. Great place for breakfast no matter the time of day. Onion rings are a perfect side for any meal-even pancake ones!

    Door ajar at 4:45am.  Place was deserted.

    This place looks deserted. I wandered around for 15 minutes saying "hello" but no one was home. The register was open and the fire alarm door was propped open. Sumter has to be one of the worst cultures of people I've seen when it comes to work ethic. The store is dirty. Who knows if the food is good because you can't get assistance. The employees are probably out back smoking or playing on tiktok. Don't come here ever. Fire the employees and start over.

    4 stars because the kitchen can be a little slow. I've been multiple times & the staff is great, just wish they could get their kitchen a little faster to match the waiting staff.

I've been here multiple times and did not like it. This trip was no different. We had a large group of 16 and it started there. Was told a 2hr wait. If we split in to groups of 8 we'd be seated in 45. Took this option. Actually got seated in about 25 minutes seperately. (A table of 8 that was right next to us was vacant and NEVER got used for the entire 90 minutes or so that we stayed at the restaurant so why not accommodate our group? - strike one) Our waitress I'm told was very chippy with an attitude toward some party members. (I didnt get any attitude toward me) but heard a few people stating how she was answering people's requests and how unpleasant she was. - Strike two. The food. I ordered the meatloaf nachos (which were good). I also ordered the fried pork chops w/ side salad. Loading up on fake bacon bits (like 1000 pieces) doesnt make the salad better. This is a hint to their kitchen. The pork chops were dry and the "red skinned" mash potatoes" (which I do not remember the menu stating that they were red skinned potatoes which would mean SKIN would be present in the mash. Otherwise I would not have ordered this. ALSO, their baked beans.......this was the worst part of the meal. I am expecting some version of beans with a bbq base or similar...instead I got some sort of bean SOUP which was totally inedible in my opinion. Whole meal was trash. Strike three. My 83 year old father said at the end of the meal "worst meal I've ever had". Which I had him repeat to the table just in case anyone thought it was just me. $700 with tip for the quality is a bit much. I will never ever return no matter what my siblings say.

    Mixed experience during my last visit…read more I ordered my steak medium-rare, but it came out clearly rare and undercooked for my liking. That said, the service helped save the meal our servers were fantastic, incredibly friendly, and super attentive throughout the night. Food execution could definitely use some improvement, but the great staff made the visit enjoyable overall.

Well maybe I will have better luck with this option. Oh, sorry not tonight. Well let me try over here. Not my first, second, or even third choice but it will do and looks like a solid yes. Excuse me but I am curious are you about to get out of here? No, we are open. The answer given begrudgingly was like we are open but the expression is why are you here we trying to close early. Finally, I found a place that is still open even though it is Applebee's. Hey, the very last option is Waffle House and getting my food through a bullet resistant window. I mean come on you get desperate but not that desperate. So I have not been to an Applebee's in a very long time. I was thinking on a Friday night restaurants should be open until 11/12 PM. Oh I was proven so wrong as my first stop was another casual downing place we will call Silis that rejected me due to it being 1001 so pickings were slim. The last time I did go was because I somehow had a gift card for them. Also it was when they had those $1 drinks. You know it is bad when you sigh as you know what you are about to encounter ranging from customer service, food quality, and cleanliness. Once I was finally noticed at the bar the female came over to ask about a drink. So, I went with a LIT and she handed me a menu that was just wet. I looked over and I still think why did I spend the time on this menu and just went with the riblets to go. The LIT was ok. It was good but did not taste like a LIT. If you want it just for the liquor then you good to go but I do like flavor in my drinks. If someone was to give it to you I am sure you would not guess it was a LIT but it was still pretty ok. Now the secret is to know the bartender. Two of her friends came in and after seeing their drinks made I was like how are they going to drive. Then the drink had a sidecar of tequila to go with the copious amounts of tequila already poured in it. The riblets were ok just like the drink. Good thing is that I was given a good amount and the bbq sauce was a savior. Here is the issue. I get firing up the ribs to get a slight char before serving but the char was very uneven. It was on some of the ribs but not the others. Coleslaw was pretty good and the fries were nothing to write to Yelp about. Still I am here writing about it. What you see and the conversations of the employees here are something to listen to. You have no choice as loud as they are talking. Across from me was a long line of used cocktail glasses that trust me was not just put there. I hear some of the employees talking about how few glasses they have to serve at times and why are there so many cocktail glasses piling up tonight. In my mind the time you spent talking someone could have easily removed them all from the counter. Hey if you got time to lean you got time to clean. Especially behind that bar area. Not a very inviting thing to see especially if it happens to be a customer 's first time in this place. This is one of those situations where I am sure Applebee's knows they are one of the few selections so what's the point of doing better or turning the needle a little bit up on the give a damn meter.

The hostess were friendly and accommodating. My husband and I decided to skip the wait for a table and grabbed seats at the bar, and honestly, it was the best choice we made all night. The bartender wasn't just pouring drinks, she was running the whole show with top-notch service, great conversation, and attention to detail that you don't always find in a chain restaurant. Our Margaritas were perfectly balanced. The Food orders were a little off but the kitchen corrected the issues right away. My husband was missing his rice for his shrimp skewer meal and his side dish. The food came out hot and it tasted good. What really stood out was how the bartender managed to make the bar feel like the friendliest spot in the house - checking in often, making us laugh, and keeping everything smooth even when things got busy. Outback is always reliable for steaks and comfort food, but when the service is this good, it makes the whole experience that much better. If you find yourself in Sumter, skip the wait for a table and grab a bar seat - you'll thank me later.
