The blackberry cobbler was perfect--not too sweet and offered with or without ice cream and whipped cream. Our pup was offered water and our booth was perfect for all 3 of us. After driving all day, we could not have asked for a better experience. Happy birthday to Erika, who was working and smiling on her birthday. Thank you.

When we arrived, it was lunchtime, and we noticed a longer-than-usual line. However, the staff behind the counter were doing an excellent job of moving customers through quickly. We placed our order in less than five minutes. While my favorite is the Double-Double Animal Style, I usually opt for either Combo #1 or Combo #2 when I'm on the road. My wife, on the other hand, is a big fan of their Double-Double Protein Style. Our order was ready in less than ten minutes. I needed to return to the counter to get some half-and-half for my coffee and extra spread for my wife. The associate assisted me quickly and greeted me with a big smile, which I always appreciate, especially during busy times. After enjoying our lunch, we got back on the road with big smiles on our faces.

I walked into an almost empty restaurant during a mid-afternoon travel break. There were two other people there though, and I was greeted and seated rather promptly. My order was the French Toast Faves Combo ($7.00), which came with an egg and two portions of either bacon or sausage, and of course coffee. Honestly, it was delicious, and one of the best deals available while traveling on Interstate 5. The coffee was pretty good, and supplied enough caffeine to keep me alert on my way to San Diego. My server was Lorena R, and she was perfect. Thanks for the great service, Lorena. This shopping center is a bit eclectic, but I spotted the IHOP sign and knew where to stop. There is not much business anywhere, so there is plenty of parking.

Once we were finally seated, we waited another 15 minutes or so, hoping someone would come take our order. During that time, our waitress seemed more interested in socializing with a Wendy's employee and then another IHOP employee than helping her customers. The only other group there, a party of three, was already eating, yet we continued to sit there waiting for service. At that point, we decided to get up and leave. It's disappointing to spend that much time waiting without even having our order taken. There are plenty of other restaurants nearby, so unfortunately, we'll be taking our business elsewhere. Good customer service starts with acknowledging your customers, and that was clearly missing during our visit.

Erika F. was super friendly and bubbly and so was the rest of the girls working this day. Management really knows how to pick employees with the right attitude. Now as for the food. I would've like the steak in my burrito to have had a char taste to it. The Mexican Street Corn was pretty tasty. Salsa's were decent. My over all rating on the food is going to be a 4 star. Definitely room for improvement.

Other daughter and I had the 3-item plate with half rice and half chow mein with string beans chicken, mushroom chicken, and eggplant tofu. Husband wanted just mushroom chicken. Unfortunately, our server dropped the mushroom chicken on the floor so she couldn't give it to him. She let him know that they would cook up a new batch for him. He chose to get the string beans chicken which was immediately available. The same server brought out to my husband a larger portion of the mushroom chicken when it was available. She did not need to do so. We were very impressed by this. The fresh batch of mushroom chicken was warm and delicious. You could really taste the flavor of the dish fresh from the wok.

High traffic, so a little less tidy than other locations I've been to, but nothing too bad. I would (and will) come here again when I need to charge.

(Honestly, she's a dingbat and I think she was thinking of Johnny Rockets). I, on the other hand have been to a Hard Rock Cafe within the past 10 years so I know they have a more varied menu. The Director of Guest Satisfaction, Brent, took care of the reservation and meal because of my last visit to the food court. It was minus 1 star but nothing major so I was very impressed with his effort to give me a 5 star dining experience. Brent even accommodated an extra person in my party. Brent definitely earned his title. I have never seen such superior customer service company wide. From cleaning staff to managers, Hard Rock Tejon excels at the best customer service. Today we got the grilled salmon noodle bowl for my 99 y/o mom. My friend ordered the legendary smash burger. Since we were going to be sharing I ordered a couple of more sides, onion rings and brussel sprouts. Everything was delicious! I couldn't get enough of the brussel sprouts. In my opinion and my friends, everything was the best we've had. Onion rings were REAL onion rings and breaded perfectly. The roasted brussel sprouts had the right amount of char and a ton of flavor. I didn't get any of the burger because even though we were going to share, my friend really wanted all of it. I finished the rest of my mom's noodle salad so I was full anyways. Our server Alexis exceeded any service I've ever received. She was super sweet and welcoming. She was very helpful in ordering. There was genuine care in everything she did. My mom wanted hot green tea, she warned us they might not have it because they needed to order some and prepared us for the worst. She came to the table with the green tea bag, cup and saucer that she warmed up!!! Have you ever had that before? It makes so much sense and now the bar is set high for all other restaurants. Alexis overheard us saying how we would share everything and I would eat off of my mom's plate. She brought 2 salad bowls, an extra plate AND cut the burger in half! She was so sweet with EVERY little request I had. There was a little confusion with the "comp" but she was so sweet and pleasant during the misunderstanding it really was no problem. Thank you again Brent!!! Food was amazing and service with 5 star. Definitely eating at the HRC next time and enjoying the superior service. Marketplace was good for a bite on the go but for nice sit down service we'll definitely go back to HRC.
