My parents love IHOP as they're offered a senior discount - something I'll appreciate when I get older; however, for the time being, I'm content with spending more money on food I actually enjoy. That just wasn't the case this past weekend when I stopped in for breakfast with my parents. Why 2 stars then? 1 for the service. It was awesome. Friendly. Efficient. Attentive. Overall: really nice. Another star for the prices. Well, that was including the discount so if there wasn't a discount (thanks to the parents), I wouldn't have gone. Why? The food was not very good. Not at all. I feel bad for the servers as they run around like crazy (place was super busy) only to be let down because the cooks don't have their act together. How does one mess up a ham and cheese melt? Not so fresh ingredients; inexperienced cooks; either way - whatever the case may be, the food didn't make me sick but I have no intention of going there again. Even when I'm eligible for a senior discount.
