Having Breakfast at Ihop on French Rd Utica, NY between the hours of 7:45 and 8:15 on Wednesday 5/31/2023 I experienced a Cook in the back ranting and raving about her pay, She also swore a few times, I thought this was very inappropiate and unprofessional. I believe it was a girl with bluish/purple hair.

The Waitress was very nice and professional and apologized to her customers. The Waitress was excellent. I have never made a complaint before about a dining experence. This however was very loud and offensive. This was not a quick ranting either, she went on and on for about 7 to 8 minutes.

Thanks you for reading, Sean

I do not know this location even remains open....lazy, slow, stupid servers and horrible, cold food is the usual experience at this location.

However, your restaurant is at a huge disadvantage by being located in New Mexico and unfortunately that leaves you with few options and have to hire local morons.

I would not be surprised if this location eventually closes due to the piss-poor standards, even by NM standards!

5/28/23 Check#31099663

At time of payment the waitress/ cashier took payment & input her own tip at 25%. When she asked me to sign I asked her if I could add a tip. Nothing on the screen showed pricing or tip it was just a signature. Her response was it automatically added it, is that ok? I responded yes. It's unethical & terrible customers service to cheat customers. My order was incorrect and she wasn't very attentive but I would have left her more than 10% if given the option, which I wasn't. Extremely disappointed in this employees actions.

We came as a party of 13 an asked for a table and we’re told to wait to make those arrangements. Then another group afterwards also a party came after our party and we’re told also to wait. Once the tables were ready the second group after us was seats before our group.

We immediately told the staff and we’re told “to bad I guess”. Then once seated they took a long time to get our drinks out like 30days minutes. Not to mention our food. Unpleasant experience with the staff as well as the manger which we shared our concerns too and of course he didn’t not seem worried or care in the slightest bit.

After this experience I would not recommend this place ever.

My wife and I went to the Flowood, MS IHOP location yesterday, Thursday around 11:15. It took us an hour to be served our orders of pancakes and eggs. There were not more than 10 patrons in the restaurant. After checking on our orders several times, they finally brought it with no silverware to use.

Although we requested it, it was not brought out immediately and so my wife went to the back to get silverware herself. They asked if we would accept plastic which she accepted because the food was getting cold. They also provided cheap ripped paper towels because there were no napkins.

Two customers next to us were having the same issues and were still not served when we left. I went into the men’s restroom and the urinal was overflowing onto the floor. This was a terrible experience and I…

My husband, 2 year old and I visited the Ihop (1201 East Stone Dr Kingsport, TN) yesterday (May 24) around 10pm and had a terrible experience. One of the employees (host and waiter) was absolutely stoned out of his mind.

He stumbled over to us and took us to a table, while stumbling and stammering around like he was out of it. He then said he couldn't find a pen so he started digging in his apron and dug down to the floor while twitching and nearly falling.

He said he was going to go find a pen and was gone for 3 to 4 minutes. In the meantime, we decided to leave because we didn't want someone in that condition handling our drinks or dishes of food.

This store will lose business if this keeps happening. This young man was in no position to be working, let alone handling food.

On May 14th, Mother's Day, my husband and close family friend stopped at IHOP, on Chestnut in Colorado Springs. They placed an order in the restaurant to go. They decided to surprise me with Mother's Day breakfast. I was home, leisurely getting up with our 2 kids. When they brought in breakfast, we started passing out what breakfast went to who. I did not get my breakfast, which was the Pablano Eggs Benedict.

As soon as we knew that I didn't have mine, of course they, ((4 of them)) started to each give me part of their breakfast so we could still eat together. I called the restaurant, and Jade, one if the managers I believe, answered the phone, so I spoke with her. She asked if we could go pick the breakfast up, but I declined, because we are 5.3 miles away. That is a 25 minute trip we…

I tried completing a complaint an hour ago but it got lost?? A brand new Ihop was constructed in Middletown Delaware recently. Had a flashing open sign in window but was as if “nobody home”! N a male manager approached front of store and began yelling at 2 waitresses.

I saw very few other customers at back of store. Service was almost nonexistent. I had my 7yo Gr son with me. When we finally received our plated food,it was cold and bacon was NOT thoroughly cooked! I asked for unsweetened tea.

Waitress brought me a glass of water that I could see through! She was Hispanic,I think) but seemed to understand when I held it up,saying “this is water,not tea. It had a teeny bit of tea color but was 99% water!

ON May 20,2023 I stopes at IHOP #4486 in Hixson, TN. After being seated and the waitress took our orders returned 45 minutes later and apologized that it was taking so long. She stated that they had gotten a lot of to go order and the cooks where behind.

She also said it would be about 15 more minutes and could she get us anything. I ordered 2 cups of hot chocolate for my grandchildren. When she arrived with the food and hot chocolate. We begin eating and notice my grandaughter did not have her bacon and eggs with her pancakes and the hot chocolate was cold and watered down.

When the waitress came by the table I ask about the bacon and eggs and stated that the hot chocolate was cold she replied ok. As time went by we finished our meal and when the waitress brought the ticket I asked her to…

I planned to have a nice Sunday brunch with my kids. It took over 20mins for our drinks, another 20 before their food came. My food never arrived. I asked for a manager but she was dealing with the payment system being down.

So she nevee made her way to my table. The 1 time my waitress checked on us, I told her I was leaving and to not worry about bringing my food. m Glad I was able to finally eat before my blood sugar went whacky. Dissatisfied turned satisfied.

Children took me out for mother's day breakfast. We went in 2 cars. After waiting awhile for a table, we were next up.

Second car was notified we were next. We were 4 minutes away. They gave our table away because we were not all there. They were told we were minutes away. We would've been there by the time they sat us down.

But they gave our table away any way. We then had to wait again. I do not think this was right. We were very displeased. After we were seated and placed our order another table came in. This table that came in after us received their food first.

By the time our food came, it was cold. The butter and whip cream on my pancakes did not melt at all. Very unsatisfied. Never again!

My husband and I were guests at the Uniontown, Pennsylvania location at 11:05 am. The restaurant was not busy for breakfast or lunch crowd. The hostess was very unfriendly as if it was a bother that we had interrupted her cigarette break in front of the restaurant.

We were seated as I indicated restaurant was not busy, there were three tables in our section and guests were finishing their meals. It took ten minutes for waitress to acknowledge us and another ten minutes for her to come back and take our order and bring a beverage.

The food took another half hour before it arrived and I will say it was good. What confused us was people seated after us were served before us. We ordered breakfast nothing unusual not sure what caused delay. The waitress never returned to ensure everything was…

My husband and I are in our 70's. He's retired and I run a homebased business. We frequent IHOP on an average 1-2 times a month. We had not been for awhile because of other demands and decided to go have breakfast this morning. Oh my, it was not good from the beginning.

First of all, I think this is the first time that I take time to complain about something online. I am a very busy person, but this incident truly bothered me and my husband. We are not demanding people and usually tip better than most as a respect to servers.

My husband likes to sit in the half booth/half chair tables. There was no one at the checkout desk and one of the waitresses came to seat us. My husband asked if we could sit towards the back where these tables are located. The waitress very abruptly said 'no, they…

I was having breakfast this morning at the Rolla Missouri establishment. I overheard a lady yelling at someone. I saw a lady come out of the restroom I noticed it was the general manager, a young women followed not long after.

I do not think it is very professional for any management of any kind to be yelling at their employees let alone while they are using the bathroom. If I worked for this lady I would be finding me a new job.

There is a time and place for issues to be handled but the restroom isn't the place. I'm highly upset and will not be coming back to this establishment. I will not support any business that allows their management to treat their employees this way.

This is not a Swedish crepe now. I should have been reemberesed since it is not Swedish and they never said anything until they handed me the order.

They don't substitute items , they don't accommodate to people's dietary needs or if the person had gastric bypass surgery. The manager from Newburgh his resolutions for the issue is order everything ala Carte and wants the CUSTOMER to pay more.

Less food and pay mote.. not the best modo. IHOP DOESN'T CARE ABOUT THE CUSTOMER just how much revenu they can make. Especially at this time during the crisis. Go somewhere else..

Have visited twice.

First time the food was good but the service extremely slow even though not that busy. We spent as much time waiting for 4 pancakes as we might at our favorite 'find dining' restaurant.

Second time we got NO service. We were seated "your server will be right with you", a staff brought water and we said we wanted to order. She said she was not the waitress but would tell her we wanted to order.

18 minutes later no one came for order. We got up and left. I saw a manager and complained, she just blew it off "sorry we didn't see you" (Heye that is where you put me

When our food came, the toast was not with my omelette, he said the toast would be ready in a minute. He then went to the booth down from where we were sitting and sat down and was talking the the customer.

The cheese omelette had not cheese inside, it was all on the top. After a couple of bites (still no toast) I found something in my omelette that should have not been there. I went to the Manager and showed him my plate, told him the server did not get my toast and pointed to the server sitting down.

We had breakfast at ihop 1101 North Federal Highway Ft Lauderdale FL on May 2nd 2023 At 2:45 AM. Our waitress was Ebony . She didn't bring us anything. I had to get-up-and-get our stuff over and over ask for things.

And I even tipped her 20% when I left just thinking she had a bad day. But. But she didn't smile she wasn't happy to. Be there. And I told her at the. The very beginning that I'm a very good tipper and my bill was $49 I tipped her $12.

She is definitely the worst. Waitress in history and I wish they would check into this because I will never come eat there again because of this.

I ordered 6 items to go for myself and a couple of employees. When the order was picked up, I took it to work, and when we sat down to eat, the order was not correct the food was cold anyways and it was too late to go and

get it changed out or anything because I was lunch break was almost over. 99… This Was a huge disappointment, especially because this was supposed to be a reward for the employees, and they did not get the right order and even what they did get was cold.

It was a total disappointment. I feel like it’s only right to get a refund for this and maybe we can try it again and get it picked up for the employees so that they do get what they wanted for their lunch.

, I attempted to be seated at an IHOP restauraunt in Salt Lake City. After syanding at the hostess gable for several minutes in silence, I flagged one of the waiteesses to see about getting a table. She told me that they were not seating any additional people for the night, something Inthought strange for a restaurant that includes an illuminated maruee that boasts ifs “open 24 hours”.

All the while, several people walked by me and were seated. I asked to speak to the manager and was told that there was not one on duty, sonas a substitute, the cook came out and told me that he was not cooking any more food.

Unless I am unaware of an internal catostrophic event, I am unable to determine why I was denied service, as I entered the restairant courteously, quietly, and spoke to the waitress…

My wife and I are African American. We went to the IHOP at 3250 Hodges Pointe Plaza store on Saturday 4/22/23. My wife ordered water with lemon and I ordered water with no lemon. The server brought my wife her ice water with sliced lemon in a small container.

Then a white couple came in sitting across from us and I overheard them order iced water with lemon. The server brought the white couple their waters with the slices of lemon placed in both of their glasses nicely placed on the rim of their glasses.

I called for the manager to ask him why we were treated differently than the white couple. The Manager was Gilberto Reyes and he was unable to explain this to us and said that he didn't know why my wife and I were treated differently.

I attended the Ihop on 4/23/23. When I finally got seated, I waited almost an hour for my food to the point where I took down a whole little pot of coffee. I asked the waitress if they had forgotten about me.

When the food arrived the food was not even hot. I did not complain about it though. When it was time for me to check out my waitress was no where to be found. I waited at the front counter for someone to finally check me out.

I was late for my church services. I called to voice my complaint in which I was told I would receive a call back on whether or not they can make it up to me and send that through email.

The first manager I spoke with never called me back. Neither did the second manager I spoke to the next day.

When she came to take our order I asked for the hamburger and was told that they did not have any hamburger meat or steaks. My wife ordered a strawberry milkshake and was told that they had no ice cream.

This is not the first time we were unhappy with this restaurant. I did not complain before, but this time I wanted to let you know why my wife and I will probably not visit your restaurants again. Thank you.

There was a manager talking to a table next to us complaining about the tips and how much per shift she makes. Very unprofessional to have a ihop manager complaining to the customer about the amount of money she was getting.

We waited for about a hour before our food came to the table. At this point we still do not have silverware to eat our food. The food was cold and our pancakes were burnt. We had to ask to have silverware.

The waitress brought out silverware in a white basket. In the basket was 2 knifes and one fork. So I couldn't ever try to eat my food. We had the…

I’m waiting too long. And we just arrive 6:10 pm. And waiting my order for 30 min. And then I’m waiting 15 min. My pancake. And then I’m waiting for my recipes. And gave her my gift card and waiting for 15 min.

So I pay for cash and we left 7:22 pm. Waste my time. I know employers play around. Talk too much.
