Ihop

The sausage is the best one I had in the South Bay area. But the pancake is normal and coffee is normal. Overall is good for families to have a breakfast. We went here on Sunday morning at 10am. The waiting line is about 20-25 minutes. So many people there. Maybe this is because Sunday is a special day on the church and Levi's stadium.

Let's be real, it's an IHOP, so it's not fancy. We got there around 8:30 in the morning. Service is quick at that time. If you go later, it will be a long wait. Server was friendly and food came quick. Everything was decent. The portions were a bit smaller than expected. But overall, a good experience.

Tldr; Denny's has better pancakes. Would recommend their Hearty 9-Grain Note: Pancakes are my #1 favorite food, so I have pretty extensive experience with them, and also high standards. Came here for lunch to redeem my free stack of pancakes for my birthday, and let's just say I was a bit disappointed by the food itself. I hadn't been to an IHOP in about 2 years, but I memories of some really good pancakes there, which is why I changed upon the opportunity. I had the full-stack of buttermilk pancakes, and they tasted very plain. I have had a lot of different types of Pancakes from a lot of different places, so I definitely know my Pancakes. I also always have them with butter (usually a "I can't believe it's not butter" spray that I care around), so it wasn't the issue of my choice of topping. They were very light and airy, and not filling at all. Some of the best Pancakes I've had are Denny's Hearty 9-grain pancakes, and I'm definitely going there soon to make up for this disappointment. Would definitely recommend those! Service was great though. I needed to print out the coupon, but I was really craving pancakes and didn't have access to a printer then, so I called that tore before hand and they said I could email the coupon to the manager who would print it our for me. Left a tip just for this reason.

This outlet is all about going at the right time. Weekday mornings, good time, no queue. They seem to be short staffed at night (weekdays and weekends). Lots of empty seats inside but we had to wait 20 mins to be seated cause there's not enough wait staff. Weekend morning, go early or just go somewhere else if you cannot wait 45 mins

I was here strictly to study and get Fench Toast and Coffee. It was great for just that. The waiter (tall/male/Asian) was pleasant for 2AM. That was a great surprise and he was accommodating. He checked on me even though I was busy but it was just enough to catch me when I needed more coffee or water.
