My new favorite breakfast spot! Bacon perfect,pancakes excellent,hash browns delicious and service with Lori delightful! Scott as well! Could have drank the raspberry syrup! Will definitely be back! read more

I love OPH, but was disappointed how much slower this location moves than some of the others. I'd recommend making a reservation if you are wanting to guarantee a short wait. The waitlist doesn't tell you where you are in line so it could be anything between 15 min to 90 min. We were told several different wait times by different staff members (20 min, 45 min, 90 min) which makes it difficult to know if we should abandon our place on the waitlist or not. It's a really big space so there is plenty of seating which is great. Service is good - staff is nice! I think there a some variation between OPH locations and the menus. This spot didn't have any sort of seasonal or special menus like some of the other OPHs in the Metro. This location is closer to me than some others, but I'd prefer to drive a bit farther to a faster OPH. read more

Always a great spot for breakfast, the 49er flapjacks at any location are to die for! Service can be a little slow, but it is always busy! It's a warm comfortable atmosphere and a great place to eat! read more

I got the raspberry French toast and loaded hashbrowns. This is my favorite place to get hasbrowns because they have onions and cheese added. Our server was funny and nice I forgot to grab his name. It was a very evaluated look for OPH at the Minnetonka location compared to others I have went to. read more

Always a great experience at OPH. Today we tried the Greek bowl, lumberjack bowl, breakfast quesadilla, and ultimate B.L.A.T. Thumbs up all around! Had the 49er flapjacks, cinnamon pancakes and hash browns for sides. I wouldn't say the hash browns are anything special, just typical. Great flavors in both the bowls. The breakfast quesadilla was a very good size portion, same with the B.L.A.T. Our waitress was attentive and the food came out pretty quickly. Looking forward to going back! read more

Today, having breakfast with a good friend I was grateful for the warm hospitality of the staff, all of whom went above and beyond to make my experience unforgettable. Having one of my favorite menu items, the potato pancakes, was superb as well. Being treated in this manner made my day. Thank You!!!!! read more

The Greek Scramble Bowl was . I usually don't like olives.... Not sure what it was about this dish, but I think it made me like olives?? Literally had me looking up Mediterranean vacations while I was eating it! The music played felt like I was at a spa retreat or exploring hobby lobby! Great relaxing vibes. Service was great, timely, and efficient! Can't forget to mention the free coffee while waiting for our table! read more

I was looking forward to this breakfast since i only hear great things about the Original Pancake House, but unfortunately it did not live up to my expectations. There inside was updated, spacious, and warm; however, we were seated in a separated area alone next to the servers kiosk and it awkwardly quiet. I often see a line on weekends, but got seated immediately on a Friday morning. I ordered a typical breakfast and the pancakes were the only thing worth ordering again. I considered the price of the meal unreasonable for the portion sizes. read more

This place is amazing! The service was so friendly from the hostess who seated us to the waitress who served us. The restaurant is nicely decorated and my mother who is hard of hearing could hear us and have a conversation. Lots of windows so lots of natural light. The food was so darn good! Two of us had crepes and loved them. I had the Greek scramble bowl with buttermilk pancakes and it was fantastic. The coffee is so darn good. We made reservations online but they were not needed as we went on a Wednesday for my mother's 89th birthday. read more

This place always has a long wait so we made sure to make reservations. I was excited to try it; the menu was extensive. Sadly, the food was not good, bland and made all of us feel overly full and bloated. I had the bowl with eggs, hash browns and veggies and couldn't believe it also came with 3 pancakes, way too much! read more

Solid breakfast food! I'm not too much of a sweet breakfast person, so I appreciated they had some savory options, even in the house specialties section. All of the food came out incredibly hot and fresh. Very much a homey, family vibe to it. Great service too--it was a busy morning, but our server Kailey was WAY on top of things and checked on us often! The Garden Dutch ($15) had a great vegetable portion with melty cheese, and the dutch baby itself was nice and fluffy. Also worth mentioning that it reheated well when I inevitably had to take most of it home because it's HUGE! I also got a side of hashbrowns ($6.75) which, while good, was a bit overpriced. One of our party ordered the apple pancake ($14.50), and when it was brought out immediately after ordering, our server explained go us that it's so popular that on busy days, the kitchen just continuously makes them all morning so they're always brought out extremely fresh, which I thought was neat. read more

Always a great time at The Original Pancake house! This was my first time at this location and it was large and well decorated. Ample parking. A bit of a wait to be seated but no more than 10 minutes. The food portions are HUGE and the menu has something for everyone!! I got the Northwoods Hash and it was really good - took half home for breakfast the next day. The plain pancakes also slap, melt in your mouth good. read more

I had a great experience at this location first time at this one!! Been to the other orignal pancake houses in the twin cities but this one was the best!! The Host that brought me to my table he was great!! The waitress I had Emilia she was fantastic! She was very nice and friendly and brought me refills of Pepsi and got my campfire hash/pancakes! Love the ambiance here!! I will come back for the awesome customer service I got today! I love pancake House! read more

Came in at opening (6:30am) not needing a reservation. Sat down and was instantly poured a nice strong cup of coffee. This was actually my first OPH experience and I am a sucker for all things buckwheat. With a little whipped butter and syrup, I could not have asked for a more delicious breakfast. Service was quick and friendly, inside the restaurant was clean, and it was nice to see so many regulars come in. read more

This one was perfect. The buttermilk pancakes were golden. They serve a skimpy blob of butter that is enough for one. Coffee with heavy cream was good. I like the small booths for two. I'm glad I caught the manager for a refill, cause no one was walking around with coffee nor was I offered any. There is handicapped parking with a side entrance. Lots of staff to clear tables right away. Great location. read more

My husband and I were in town visiting friends and sightseeing and stopped by the Original Pancake House for brunch after an incredible experience at Prince's Paisley Park. The food, service and hospitality exceeded our expectations. My avocado toast and side of French toast were exceptional! I didn't think I could finish it all and I looked up and had eaten every morsel. We had the sweetest conversation with the Manager, Scottie B and he made our day! He was kind, funny and provided us with some extra historical insights and suggestions. Our waitress was lovely and super helpful. What a perfect brunch experience! Thank you so much for a memorable meal. Blessings! read more

OPH is one of my favorite breakfast spots ever. I've been to the Eden Prairie and Roseville locations, and the Minnetonka location did not disappoint. The chocolate chip pancakes are always a must with the chocolate batter (I will never have a better chocolate chip pancake) BUT I will be ordering these cinnamon bun pancakes going forward. These Cinnamon bun pancakes are quite literally the best thing both my mom and I have tasted. SOOOO good and yet light and fluffy - no sick feeling from all the sweetness. I LOVE THIS PLACE read more

For being a pancake place, you'd think they'd have better syrup. They only have maple-flavored watery stuff. We've eaten there many times before, but never noticed this. Otherwise, the food selections are great! read more

Just everything about this place is great. From the food to the staff. Delicious food!!! Would come here every day if I had the funds

Amazing service and ambience and we love the quality of food maintained here! Remember to put yourself inline before heading there to cut down on waiting time as Sundays get busy. It's my absolute favorite! read more

Love the soft scrambled eggs and the Apple pancake! This is my weekend treat. I have been here to eat but these days I do take out and get my dog two eggs.

DO NOT GO TO OPH IN MINNETONKA IF YOU ARE CELIAC/GF. Went in for brunch with my family on Martin Luther King day. My dad has celiac and specified when ordering to our server Emilia that he wanted gluten free pancakes. When our meal came out he raved about how good the pancakes were to our server. She said they weren't gluten free. We were alarmed and luckily my dad's disease is not life threatening or else we would have a different story. Let alone she acted unprofessional and blamed him that he didn't spell it out when she repeated it back to him gluten free. She talked to management and they took off $2 on our $47 dollar bill. As we sat there shocked we went to management ourselves and he made it clear that she in fact did not talk to management. The manager was helpful but we will not be going back to OPH again. read more

This location accept reservations and is very clean! We were able to get a Sunday morning reservation with 10 people. I very much appreciate that they now have gluten free batter for a lot of their pancakes. My strawberry pancakes were absolutely delicious and they keep the gluten free items very separate from the rest (even a different plate color). It is SO appreciated. read more

I have Celiac Disease and just about everything can be safely made GF for me. I don't have many options for GF in Minot ND, so I happily drive roughly 8-9 hours to visit family and it is now tradition we go to OPH. They take serious precautions when ordering GF. They have designated GF labeled sticks and red plates that denote GF. My favorite are the crepes! Those strawberry crepes are so dang good every time! I have never gotten sick from OPH. I also never wait more than 10 mins to be seated with my family and the ambiance is so inviting and friendly. Absolute favorite place to eat breakfast!! read more

Came into town from Oregon and grabbed some breakfast with my family. Food was amazing. And the service was so pleasing. Manager also came up to us many times to make sure we were happy. We had a large party and all our food came out so fresh! read more

We were looking for a good breakfast spot and we found the perfect location!! First things first we did make reservation online the day before!! Unfortunately we made it for the wrong location!! :( they were so accommodating for us the host didn't skip a beat she said no worries we will find seating for you! This speaks numbers! I had the banana foster French toast, so yummy!! It was perfectly toasted and had just the per crunch! Everyone else had pancakes and they were just oh so perfect! Fluffy and satisfying! The service of course was amazing! They know how to keep the flow of customers coming in and out! We highly recommend this location the food is outstanding! They get two dollar signs from me($$) very affordable for the whole family! read more

My hot tip for this place is if you want a big plate on a Sunday morning, go before the after church rush. We've had excellent service each time we've gone. read more

I am torn about only giving this place three stars. The service is always great. The inside pre-Covid is very nice and the place always packed with gobs if people I know. I love their coffee mugs and the coffee is good. During the pandemic, I do appreciate being able to reserve a table. Staff has masks on. Tables far apart. However, while they do have the code you can scan to see their menu, they still gave us laminated menus ... really odd. I later watched a teen customer at another table rubbing her face from forehead to chin with her menu repeatedly- yikes! Our waiter was great, except for never refilling my wife's soda - he was very prompt with coffee refills, though. What I don't like is a generally extremely unhealthy menu. So bad I stopped going here a while ago even though my family goes all the time. The corned beef hash with eggs over easy - yummy! But come on, America is fat enough, and these glutinous menu options are not helping us stay fit and avoid illness. Enough of my soap box lectures. We were also surprised by how long our food took to came out (35 minutes for everyone except mine, which came a few minutes later). More surprising was the manager walking up to us with ten minutes left in our hour booking and telling his we had to vacate because the next customers were waiting. We did tell her the food arrived late, which she apologized for. I guess eat in 15 minutes and get out. Another reason to dislike the place. I won't be back. read more

Came here for breakfast with a friend. Likes- reservations, easy to make and was seated right away as it was very busy. I got the big bowl of meats with the hash brown and biscuits underneath. We also got cheesy hashbrowns to share. The hasbrowns were great but definitely a potato overload as there's plenty in the bowl. Also, these are not rosti potatoes like the other OPH locations. Pancakes were good too. Portions were humongous. Would come again read more

Since my first visit, we've been back three or four more times. Every visit has been five star. Of course we tried a lot of things on the menu, and of course the pancakes are great, but so are the salads and sandwiches. One personal recommendation, the BLAT with fried egg sandwich. A home run if you're not into that pancake thing. It's massive but you can finish it. Really great ingredients!! Love this place. BTW, they hire great enthusiastic people. read more

It's a a shame that the OPH closes at 3:00pm because sometimes a person gets a hankering for breakfast at dinner time, or later. The staff is great. The variety of breakfast dishes is large, and the food is always good. The tables are huge so kids can spread out their coloring books while they wait for their food. If you want something other than their signature pancakes, try the hash. If you go on Sunday, get there before the church crowd or you'll have a very long wait. read more
