service excellence... waitress very professional her name Joanna the best server.. and kaitlyn .. thank you.. i recommend i hop ..

Came here today to enjoy dinner breakfast I could say they were short staffed but honestly for being short staffed Kimberly the only waitress working the only person I seen running around like fairy godmother 'Bibbidi bop and booping 'around the whole restaurant honestly I'm going to say her name as many times as possible in this review because Kimberly did extremely phenomenal for having a dining room that had me and my family of 3+ a party across the way of 5+ it seemed like there was only one show I did not get his name but he did outstanding as well but Kimberly you sweetheart you can clutch running around this restaurant owning this shit I have to say mad props girl I have not seen a waitress go that crazy since I used to be a waitress thank you so much for making our night and thank you for being patient and so caring with us and our baby we truly appreciate IHOP's hospitality they never seem to us and that's why we always come here over blackberry diner because blackbear diner is disgusting and has to grow coming from a former worker I remember when they first opened and they swore up and down that they were gonna close I hopped down look at them now empty parking lot not the point though point of this review is our is always on point with their food they're always on point with that and even when their staff they bust out food like no water IHOP always for the win family friendly hot delicious never can go wrong thank you Kimberly and Cook read more

IHOP - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Yucca Valley, California

I'm not a huge breakfast eater so don't go to IHOP very often. And won't go in the future. I had biscuits and gravy with a side of hash browns. The biscuits and gravy were horrible. The gravy was tasteless and bland. The hash browns weren't much better. The only reason for 2 stars is the milk was cold. They are overpriced as well. Two side orders of 1 biscuit and gravy, 1 side of hash browns, coffee, and milk was almost $30. Do yourself a favor and go to the Bear restaurant next door. read more

I stopped by on Monday morning, it wasn't very busy but it took quite a while for our food to arrive. It felt like they didn't have enough staff scheduled, which affected the overall dining experience. The food was pretty expensive for what we got. We ordered three plates plus a kids plate and it was around $80. The food was super greasy and salty. read more

Food was good but it took a more than an hour to get food. We didn't even get cups of water or our drinks until 20 minutes in. Wouldn't come back to this location. read more

Around 11 am on 4/19, we came in as a party of 7 and put our name (Sarah) on the waitlist, and when we were called, the lady said "Tarah for 7" and we went up because she probably heard the party name wrong. She denied wanting to sit us and said she'll ask her manager. She starts walking to the table w/ menus so we followed and the table was clearly open but she starts being rude and giving attitude that she needs to ask her manager and we had to walk back to the front. She then says another 15 minutes. It was said by this older white woman with bangs, and me and my friends are POC asian & hispanics. By the looks she was giving and the attitude we felt like she was being racist, so we left after waiting 20-30 minutes already. read more

The service was amazing but they were overworked. When we were here it seems like there were only two servers. The restaurant is clean but I went to use the women's bathroom and the lights were off. The tenders I ordered were a bit burnt and the pancakes someone else ordered weren't fluffy. I overheard someone say their steak tasted funny. I wouldn't recommend this place. read more

IHOP - Chicken strips and fries. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Yucca Valley, California

See all

Staff were very friendly and helpful but the food just isn't worth the price. Dishes were not clean and we needed to ask for a new ones because of it still had lipstick. The food is just ok and the prices were higher than I remember. Over all it's what you would expect from a IHOP read more

pork omelette was super good viktoria and melissa were good serves aswell! would recommend this place

The kitchen is so slow they can't handle a small amount of people. We're 5 and have been waiting over 30 minutes since we ordered.

We have dined here 4 days in a row for breakfast because we are traveling to Joshua Tree NP. We have other options but the food is good, the service is great and the place is clean. Also, the prices are reasonable. Normally, we would try other places but we like this restaurant so much, we just keep coming back. read more

Understaffed. Staff clocked out during height of rush. Verbally complained about not having a break when they're busy out the door. Service is poor. read more

Our waitress, Melissa did an amazing job handling a very busy rush while staying calm and patient with us the entire time. It was the best customer service experience I've received at any restaurant. Looking forward to many more meals here read more

Kelly and Rocky always go above and beyond with their customers! While anyone can be professional, Kelly and Rocky are that rare combinations of being both professional AND personable! I hope IHOP appreciates Kelly and Rocky as much as I, and I'm sure that I am only one of many grateful customers to always experience their most excellent customer service! read more

Their service is so slow takes forever just to order! Had to wait a long time just to order 2 things

A Great Breakfast at IHOP today. The coffee was great and the Pancake Combo was Delicious. Dawn D. was both Courteous and Professional. A Great Experience Today... Thank You read more

I'm saying 5 stars today. They seemed short staffed for being the only real sit down breakfast restaurant for miles. We were having a girls weekend out in the desert and came here for lunch/extra breakfast for next morning. The choices in Landers are slim so I highly recommend stopping at the grocery store before you head down Old lady road . once on that road there is one chance for gas or grocery mom/pop and good luck risking if it's open. there were 17 miles of nothing in between so make sure you Gas up here too. We were caught by fire trying to get on 62 so we took a parallel road so we weren't stuck in the log jam of traffic for hours. TIP make sure you always have a full tank of gas and lots of water if you are heading out this way. We've been caught on the 10 several times for fires or dust storms and are always prepared. Back to Ihop: the ladies were swamped at one time and i only saw one cook in the kitchen. The restaurant was moderately busy but there was only thr day manager and our server but there were a couple larger groups of 4-8 ppl. I get those tables are demanding even though we were famished we waited patiently . I orders a burger with side of pancakes vs fries (tomorrow take home breakfast) and ihope gives pancakes as a side .. because it's IHOP! So it took a little while for my burger and my friends fruity salad , then my burger came out with mayo & lettuce so we sent back . Our server was so sweet and she actually came back and owned the mistake saying it was her fault not the cook. Never has this ever happened in my life so we doubled her tip. Seriously no server ever admits to a mistake and 5 stars for making it right and even getting a kudos for honesty. The burger was juicy and correct the second time. My friend loved her salad . My pancakes were awesome light fluffy and the next day they were still delicious . Try this ihop. have a little patience knowing that this isn't the city so people run here at a different pace . If you are patient you'll have an excellent experience also. read more

IHOP - Side of buttermilks - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Yucca Valley, California

The kids were really hungry after our trip through Joshua Tree National Park. So we saw an IHOP and pulled in. Our girls had the standard pancake, bacon and egg (scrambled) and my wife had eggs, hash browns and sausage. Everything was just ok. I made the mistake of ordering crepes. Why did I do that? I should have known better and kept it basic. The crepes were just bad. My wife ordered an iced coffee, Why did she do that? Not very good. We learned our lesson. When you go to IHOP just stick to the basics. The waitstaff were very friendly and took good care of us. But we left a little unsatisfied. read more

Restaurant was very clean and well lit. We were greeted as we came in and were seated right away. Drinks arrived quickly and food ordered right away. Food arrived quickly and prices were comparable to any other breakfast place in town. I always perceived IHOP to be more expensive than others, but that is not true anymore. Great value for the money. And, the food and service was excellent!!! And, our server Katlyn was fantastic!!! read more

The service at the beginning was fast and waiter was kind after about 45 minutes we got 1 plate of food and the waffle wasn't bad but the eggs and sausage weren't cooked right and tasted pretty disgusting like they didn't clean the pan they were cooked in prior to cooking my food overall I don't think I'll ever eat here again just isn't worth spending that much money for a meal that was so poor. read more

I know this ihop has got a bad reputation or so it did. My daughter wanted to eat there for pancakes (she's 4) we went on the 26th. Everyone was nice from walking in the door to walking out the door. The place was clean, and all the workers looked busy but happy! We got our drinks and food very fast. Hot food (my daughter even decided to eat my food also Next time the husband and son will come with us! read more

Great food, awesome service they even sang to my brother on his birthday which made it feel very special

I have been in there three times. Last time during Covid. It was lousy. Decided to try it again this morning. Table for 2 need to wait 10 minutes. Along with a party of 8 waiting too. More people came in. Still waiting. Finally the party of 8 walked out. Tired of waiting. We did too. Won't try again. read more

Stood in the lobby for 5 minutes while the employees cackled in the back and never came out to seat us. We left and went to another restaurant. read more

Our server was amazing & I'm kicking myself for not remembering her name. The service was excellent & my meal was very good: double blueberry pancakes. Hubby said the chicken fried steak was just ok. read more

A restaurant on the rebound. It was a location known to avoid by locals and seemed doomed when competitors opened next door. But I tell you it has really taken a turn towards improvement you just feel walking up. The new manager has done a great job of building a team that all want to be successful while at work. and it seems like a whole new staff in the kitchen is really giving much needed fresh blood to the old building. The food was hot, made to order and the portions were the perfect size to be filling but not so much you had to take some home. I am glad I have them another chance. I will be back. Pro tip they are open until 10 pmsun - Thu and 12a Fri and Sat. Not a long wait during this time of day and it's still a full menu of options. read more

Horrible service I had a bad experience waited 11\2 hours to be served. Server didn't even seem to recognize or care that we were waiting so long. read more

We stopped at IHOP for dinner on Friday night. It was great. The food was perfect and the waitress Kimberly was the best. Helpful, sweetest and just absolutely great. I wanna make it a regular thing. Give it a try you won't be disappointed! read more

Great service especially by manager (12/19 around noon). They were understaffed but we're working hard and acknowledged us which we greatly appreciated. Food was great. Love their breakfast but we had lunch and were Not disappointed. Loved the chicken salad, and the BLT was awesome! read more

Terrible service. Our party of 9 was sat immediately but took them over 20 minutes to take our orders, not to mention we were not even checked on during that time. Food came out another 20+ minutes later and one of the orders had not one but TWO pieces of hair in it. Had to send it back to the kitchen and by the time the food came out we had been waiting for 45 minutes total. Never coming back, do not come here!!! read more

I wish I could give more than two stars but I cannot. Starting off it was a little odd making our way to the entrance but once inside we were greeted and sat right away. We order two coffees and an apple juice for our sprout. Both of the coffee cups came with lipstick on the rims (lipstick is typically hard for the Hobart to remove but running them through twice does the trick). With our replaced mugs we poured our coffee and took our sips.. The coffee not only tasted burnt but also stale. Each brew machine has a timer light for 30 mins (when coffee is no longer fresh) and clearly the timer had just been reset rather than a new pot being brewed. It took about 15 minutes for our server to come back for our order and it truly set that pace of how our visit was going to be. We ordered two omelette and some funny face pancakes. One of the omelettes was modified for egg white substitutes and pepper jack cheese. When this omelette arrived it was raw from the edges and got substantially worse the further you went in. The internal texture was similar to grits and the substitute request for the cheese had not been made. In short it was grotesque. During our visit our server was mostly absent however there was one particular server who was assisting all of our server's tables. Unfortunately I wasn't able to catch her name but I did notice her beautiful accent (Aussie?) and that her name begins with an "M". I'm not sure if she is one of the managers but she definitely deserves to be. She was the person who sat us and greeted us right away, she is the one who addressed my concerns with my omelette and she also went by and did drink refills for us. The care that we received from her was the same level everyone around us received it. She was ensuring that people didn't need refills, checks or anything. So while I would say that this was a negative experience she has an individual is who deserves the stars that I'm providing not IHOP and if I could label this five stars solely for her, I would. read more

Service was awesome food was made quickly and the was was great everyone's very friendly here

Food was great and came out fast, not to mention we had the best SERVER EVER. Her name was christella and she was such a sweetheart, she made sure we got all our drinks on time and was super friendly. Definitely coming here again staff was amazing! read more

Walked in. The restaurant almost completely empty. Did get sit down for twenty minutes. Now mine came to take our Oder for another twenty minutes. We walked out. Total joke and waste of time read more

On a busy holiday weekend it was the only place that had no line for breakfast. The food was fine. The atmosphere was family.

I've been to IHOPs in other locations but this one is just a NoNo , it took one hour and didn't get my food , I ended up paying for my drinks and walked out. The waitress gave us our drinks and after 25 min I had to remind her we needed straws , in total this place gives " BAD SERVICE" , I don't recommend it at all , a waste of time. read more

Food was yummy. The service was great, it was nice and quite when we went for dinner. read more

IHOP - Nice window seat. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Yucca Valley, California

Was hoping to enjoy our breakfast, but both my mother-in-law and I got horrible stomach aches hours after having breakfast here. Waitress apologized for the wait to order, she said they only had one cook in the kitchen. My mother-in-law got the senior breakfast and I got the savory crepes, the food was just ok, the service was ok. Hot sauce we asked for never came and waited awhile for extra napkins (we only got one each). They didn't seem very busy and seemed to have sufficient wait staff. I guess the only positive thing I can say is that the coffee was good, but not sure our tummy aches was from the food, the coffee or the creamer. Sorry IHOP Yucca, but probably not stopping by ever again. read more

The service was non existent. I walked out after having waited 20 minutes and not getting our drinks ordered or even someone asking us to wait or anything . But other people were served before us that had gotten there after we had. Never coming back here. It's so disorganized and they had no sympathy at the fact that they never even got to us before we ended up leaving read more

never come here. from getting there to being seated and actually eating we waited an hour and a 45 minutes. any reviews that say service is quick is lying. read more
