French crepes filled with strawberry preserves, topped with hot tropical syrup and lightly dusted with powdered sugar.
Sonia A.

This is a Miami staple! I've been coming here for years and this place consistently comes through! The food taste homemade! Even though you could compare it to IHOP or Denny's, the food here is better hands down! For instance, I had breakfast here a week ago and the hashbrowns alone tasted better and were a bigger portion than its competitors! One of my favorite dishes is the Dutch baby which taste around a half hour to make...if you're hungry make sure you sit there and wait pretty cause it's gonna be a while, lol! Last time I didn't get to order it cause I got there 20 mins before closing! But ima dedo come back for the Dutch Baby! It's so delicious, comes straight out the oven! Oven baked, served with whipped butter, lemon and powdered sugar! It's to live for! They have egg breakfasts with the usual sides. The ambiance is filled with Miami locals, families...patrons of all ages. They're only open til about 3 in the weekends so don't be too late or you'll miss out! Plenty of parking in the lot!

Orange juice

Warm diner that always smells so good that if you were not hungry already, you are as soon as you walk through the doors. I dined with a big group, and our waitress was very attentive and accurate with our orders. Food was good too. I love when I done at a place that has good food all round; gluten and gluten free. The gluten free waffle was amazing!! I've tried their gluten free pancakes and those are good too. This place is a classic and I'm SO glad it has yummy GF options.

This spot did not disappoint me ! I got the waffle combo and asked for a blueberry waffle with scrambled eggs and added a side of the home fries. The waffle was PERFECT! The home fries were very yummy but just a tad salty for my taste but still edible and tasty! My mom had the steak breakfast and the steak was cooked perfectly was tender and flavorful! The orange juice is natural and was also very good. The server was kind and attentive. The booth seats are not the most comfortable but the place overall is perfect for a casual brunch / breakfast I will definitely be going again! :)

We were visiting the area and it's been a while . I got the skillet has seasoned home fries peppers, onions cheddar cheese bacon , sausage or ham with Two eggs it was delicious. My wife got the avocado toast with two eggs she loved the addition of feta cheese it was a winner she loved it , the toast was thick ,N crispy the coffee was good and so was our server . Practically empty and quiet for a change.

The OG of all things pancakes. Come and you will wait but it's not long and you'll see why everyone waits happily. The menu consists of breakfast goodies and more like handheld sandwiches and burgers. So its not just all about the pancakes...but more of satisfying your hunger through all things delish. They have a variety of omelettes, eggs, frenchtoast, skillets,cereals, waffles, oatmeal, and of course a variety of pancakes. It's not just pancakes with fruity toppings or sauces but they have sourdough , buckwheat, potato, bacon (yes,bacon pancakes) and then some. And don't forget to finish it all.off.with some great coffee or the best damn fresh squeezed oj I've ever had!

Eggs bacon and burnt hash brown
Lindsay M.

Service was good . Food not so great. Had to pay extra to get hash browns and they came out burnt . The pancakes were just ok not the best . Very pricey not worth the money

It's easy to place a food order, and I always get takeout. Unfortunately the food order was prepared incorrectly. The waffle was soggy, and the portions were quite small.

Chicken and waffles
Vicente R.

The service is amazing. I always get the same waiter Everytime I come here, always working her hardest. Don't even get me started on the food it's sooooo good everytime I come I always get the chicken and waffles and those are amazing. The vibes in here are insane it feels like time travelling back in time to early America and it feels good.

Chocolate chip pancakes

My fiancé and I visit this diner frequently. We always have such a great experience everytime. Food and service both 10/10. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a classic casual diner experience.

It's ok, the place is a bit rundown but it's decent for diner style food. 49er pancakes are better choice. Crepes were not fantastic. Dutch baby was just ok. Capuccino also just ok.

Greasy hash browns
Melissa Y.

It had been a while since we've eaten at this Original Pancake House and I don't foresee us coming back... My husband is Gluten Free so he was looking forward to their GF pancakes. To say he was disappointed is an under statement! We don't know if they've changed their GF pancakes mix but he used to really enjoy them. This time he said they tasted bland, dry, and bordering gritty. I had the waffle combo which included a Belgian waffle and 2 eggs and ordered a side of hash browns. The hash browns were sitting in a puddle of grease (nasty) and lacked salt or any flavor for that matter. I will say that the waffles were the best part of my breakfast. They were fluffy and delicious! Their OJ is also freshly squeezed and delicious, Just know that each glass is $4.99. We also asked for GF syrup for my husbands pancakes and the waitress seemed loss. We explained that it usually comes in a small glass bottle and is pure maple syrup. Instead she brought us a Sugar Free Smuckers syrup. We had to ask another waitress and she brought us true maple syrup that tasted delicious. Just be prepared to pay $2.49 for each bottle of 100% maple syrup. Another thing to note is that 15% gratuity was already added to our bill. So double check your bill before paying.

Hi how do I get on rewards program?

Wasn't aware they had an awards program .... I imagine best thing is to ask on your next visit - they would probably guide u as well

I knew when I saw the 4.3 Yelp rating and hundreds of great reviews, this was the place !! And it…read moresure lived up to its expectations... actually, it surpassed them! The hardest part about dining here was deciding what I wanted to order. I could have ordered the entire menu it looked so good! Helpful tip... check out the menu and know what you're going to order before you get in line. Otherwise you're going to be pressured to order at the front of the line. When you walk in, you place your order and pay for it and take a table number. You need to find your own table. Our service was pretty quick, despite how busy the restaurant was. My cold brew was very good and a nice start to the meal. Our guacamole came next and it was nicely styled with pomegranate, cheese and cilantro on top. Yum! The real star of the show for me was this unassuming looking House Club Sandwich that was to die for. Seriously ... it was so good. I ordered mine without the ham, and it was divine! I wish i lived closer. I'm already dreaming of coming back. My son ordered some kind of short rib/beef burrito and it disappeared so quickly I didn't even get to snap a photo. This is a perfect spot to enjoy a great meal, I highly recommend it. One thing I can say is that it's on the pricey side. $113 lunch for 2 added up super fast but it was well worth it. I'll be dreaming of that sandwich til my next visit!

I had been seeing a lot of great reviews about this place, so I was excited to try it, especially…read morethe tacos. I ordered the mahi mahi tacos, and while they tasted ok, the portion size felt pretty small for the price. Overall, it came across as a bit overpriced for what you get. The service style is more casual and self-directed. You order and pay at the register, get a number, and then find your own seat while they bring the food out to you. Water is self-serve, and once you're done with your meal, you just head out. There's minimal interaction with staff, which might appeal to people who prefer a more low-key, independent dining experience or want a place to sit and work without being interrupted. That said, the service did not feel very friendly or welcoming. And personally, I left feeling a bit underwhelmed.
