Review Ihop - Rancho Santa Margarita

I had breakfast here before my trip back home. People had suggested the quality had diminished in recent years but then they changed their mind and gave it an OK. Personally I liked the food here. Service was good and the price was friendly. Not bad at all for breakfast.

My family loves coming here. It's sooooo much better than nasty Denny's. The staff are very nice and the pancakes are amazing! And, kids eat free after 4 pm.

Had an omelette with pancake. It reminds me the taste that I had pancake for the first time back in 1996 summer in Urbana-Champaign, Illinois. Good for breakfast or even afternoon meal on the weekend^^

Great spirit from the staff! Felt pretty much like home! Thanks so much to Jimena and Mauricio. The new Oreo milkshake is some serious sh**. You oughta try it! Besides that, the stablishment was clean and the food delicious (as always).

The employees were very friendly and attentive but not overly so. I didn't feel rushed to order and we were there at 8pm. The food was very good and not greasy, which often happens when ordering an omelet. There was 4 in our party, we all ordered something different and we were all pleased with our food. We will go back again.

Not so greasy food, friendly staff, manager that is helpful and customer service oriented (Gorge), always makes you feel welcome. Willing to go in the kitchen and help out his cooks when they are short staffed and things get backed up. The previous manager of this facility (Mauro), was also exceptional in the same manner.. The interior was always clean and we'll Maintained Ed but had a recent facelift that has brightened things up and makes it cheerful from from entry to patio and throughout. Nice Sunday visits.

The staff and service was great, but a tad on the slow side the night we were there. Everyone was incredibly friendly though. We were there for the all you can eat pancakes, which none of us finished our first plate. With a stack of 5 pancakes, that's probably anticipated. And if course the pancakes were delicious.

It's IHOP. The good is standard but our service today was very good. I order the Sirloin Tips and eggs, always! It's consistent. And I like that. It's always clean too! Which is nice. So much better then others restaurants in it ilk.

Blueberry pancakes were delicious. The only problem I had was with the service. It was a little slow especially considering the fact we were there fairly early on a Saturday and not a lot of people in the restaurant.

Honestly, the food is what it is, I mean, c'mon it is an Ihop. What makes me rate this place 5 stars is not the food (although the food is decent), is the people who work there. I have never had a bad experience when going to this particular Ihop. Everyone is always cheerful and helpful. The service is pretty much phenomenal!!!! It is also an inexpensive place to eat and I believe kids eat free on Tuesdays.

My family and I love IHOP. I’m actually not a huge pancake fan but their omelets are the best. Usually great service, my boys also love their sparkling drinks and there’s actually a huge variety of delicious choices for non-pancakers.

Friendly staff and great food. I ordered the big breakft sampler that has all the classic breakfast meats, hash browns, eggs and pancakes. Definitely a lot of food. Will be back!
