Ihop - Virginia Beach

I ordered takeout online in the wee hours of the morning. I’m often cranky at that time but the customer service here was so warm and down to Earth, I couldn’t help but leave smiling… but it didn’t end there. The food was not only pretty amazing, but quite plentiful, so we were quite satisfied with our experience.

The restaurant was clean, the server was friendly and attentive, and our food was delivered quickly. I did not like strawberry crepes as they were tough/gummy and coated in a fake-tasting ultra sweet strawberry sauce. However, the eggs, bacon, and hash browns were all good. The thirteen year old said the chocolate chip pancakes were good, and they did appear fluffy. The employees seemed to have an odd dynamic with each other at times. Overall, this was a clean IHOP with fast and friendly service.

We stopped in after doing some shopping. There weren't that many tables full. Our server was polite and took care of us. My wife likes the Colorado Omelette and I had the sampler. Having pancakes as a side with virtually every breakfast is okay but an option or two would be nice. We generally take the pancakes to go as it's just too much to eat in one sitting so more than one meal from each order. There were issues with trying to pay on the app and our server didn't check back until I flagged him down so being more attentive would be nice. We figured he must be fairly new. Worth checking out.

I went to this particular IHOP once for breakfast and the next day at 4:13am lol I'm pregnant so those cravings are real. The first time I went the food looked and tasted rushed. My Belgian waffle was falling apart. I ordered grits that were extremely watery but I doctor it up the best way I could. The hash browns and scrambled eggs were re good but my turkey bacon was burnt. The second time I went they had literally only one person working and operating everything. She not only took my order but cooked my food and put her foot and ankle and toes all up in the Sirloin steak that I ordered! I'm not a big fan of steaks from IHOP but when I tell you she made it like she knew how I wanted it and I ain't never met this lady a day in my life. Her name is Angel W. Shortly after someone did walk in but Angel w was holding it down, serving food and taking orders she thebomb.com. Thank you Angel W for your hard work. If they don't tell you, You are VERY appreciated. I appreciate you. Y'all was the only IHOP that was open near my house so I went and I'm so glad I did. Me and the baby slept so well after finishing our food!

Sub par service. I got served my coffee after waiting all the way up till when my food came out so it was forgotten I had ordered any I guess. Other guests around me who sat down after me got helped with everything before us so I guess we landed at the wrong IHOP. Hashbrowns was a soggy patty looking like a flattened chicken patty. I ordered the Sirloin tips and eggs and there is little to no onions and mushrooms and most of them are burnt. Eggs were basic with cheese. I've have way better.
