Just want to say maaaannnnn!!! This place sucks. This is my second time here I'm active duty and I was like. Let me ask for military discount because why not right? Did not give up my ankle for no reason LOL anywho. I asked the cashier if they do military discount. And when I tell you this, the cashier made a whole ass face looked at me and my husband, drop her hand down on the table saying: you would have to wait for it. She goes away, disappears for like 15 minutes, mind you I only wanted a Crepe I just got out of surgery so I wanted something sweet. Worst mistake ever to ask for military discount. You would think that if a place offers it, it wouldn't be an issues. She comes back and says: he is putting it in for you. Idk who she's is referring to but then she does her thing on the computer prints a receipt with the discount. This whole time she was able to do it she just didn't want to do it. Like come on is not coming out of your paycheck anyways. Don't ask for military discount people seem to be offended to do an extra step. read more

Came here like any other person would after a late night of drinking. The food is average nothing too fancy but it was really cool to substitute the fries for pancakes. I ordered a spicy ranch chicken sandwich (I don't really remember the name) it was good but the veggies in it were just too much. Maybe not as many because it made biting into my sandwich not pleasant. Our server was Richie (I would've given 2 stars but he gets a star for himself)he was very nice and recommend something to my friend I came with to eat. While we were checking out some other guy came to us and told us we had to check out because I guess he was tryin to leave, which was rude asf but we were checking out anyway. Overall decent eats for a place that's open at 5am read more

We got Brandon as our server and he was one of the best servers I've had in a long time. He's a great man. Very chill. Takes his time when you are ordering and delivers fast. Everybody who has Brandon has a server should tip 50% just because of his personality.Brandon we trust! read more

I tried again. Exactly one year to the date. I attempted to give this business a second chance. I had high hopes. What I discovered was the same as it was a year ago. At least this waiter didn't forget to put in my order. Well, half my order. as usual, I was greeted by a very nice Asian lady. She sat me down right next to the kitchen. Not the best place to be in a high traffic restaurant. But the place had a lot of people so I understand. I stared at the menu and knew right away what I wanted. The waiter came minutes later. He asked me what I want to drink. I told him and he just started to walk away. I called him back and said, "I am ready to order". "What would you like sir"? He asked and I gave him my order, then he ran off to the kitchen. I received a big cup of hot water for my tea, but no sugar or honey. I waited five minutes before I asked a random stranger across the table, if I could take some of his. No big deal. When my order was ready, The waiter brought it out and said That my hashbrowns will be out in a moment. So far so good I said to myself. As I'm eating my food, I realize I don't have any salt, pepper, ketchup, or syrup. I look for my waiter and he is nowhere to be seen. After another five minutes, I had to ask the same person across my table if I can borrow there condiments. He himself was frustrated. At His waiter asking if someone can clean his table. I shook my head and continue to eat my breakfast. My hash browns never came, but the bill did. I asked the waiter to remove the hashbrowns as he apologized. I gave him a stare and said, "where were you all this time? I'm not the only one that has been looking for yo? I left it at that, paid my tab. Minus the cost of the hash browns and decided to write this review. Shame they can't get this right. I live nearby and was hoping to make this my every day breakfast location and company meeting place. They just can't get it right! I hope this review help somebody and NO!!! There will be no third time. Good luck. read more

IHOP - Proof that was there. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lorton, Virginia

Had the server named brandon great guy honestly deserves a raise food was great as well

I came in to this location on a Tuesday morning in August and it was Sunday morning after church busy, but the restaurant was about 1/2 full. They had a skeleton crew and I got the sense our waitress was doing the work of what normally would be three people. Despite that, we had great service. I enjoyed my 2x2x2 with blueberry pancakes (because if you don't have blueberries, what are you doing with your life?). Our waitress--her name is escaping me right now and I am so sorry for that because she was amazing--was attentive to our needs, but not agressive (in the sense that she's constantly coming over). I recommend this IHOP, for sure. read more

We placed an order for 3 people, nothing difficult. All 3 of the orders were either incorrect or missing items. We called and spoke with the Manager. He was very nice and said that he would have the items corrected/replaced at no charge, but we should call when we would be coming to pick them up. We called and spoke with a 'manager' (a woman this time), but had significant difficulty communicating because of her broken English and the fact that there was A LOT of background noise on her end. And it didn't help that she continually talked over us so it made it difficult for us to restate our order. We stated 3 TIMES that we ordered NY cheesecake pancakes (which is an order of 3), and she repeated it back to us. When we picked up the corrected order, there were only 2 pancakes and they were NOT NY cheesecake style. And it didn't help that we were 'nickel and dimed' in service fees --- fees for the size of the containers, etc. Really???? We won't be doing business with them again any time soon. read more

Where to begin. Gruff staff. Every table has previous diner's debris. Looking in the kitchen door is a horror show of strewn dirty pots and pans. If they don't suggest juice (they didn't) you can ask for a free one. We were pretty sure they'd spit in it if we asked, so we didn't. Update, 1 hour later: I feel sick. read more

I went to this IHOP thinking it was very good considering the reviews I had a turkey sandwich the bacon was not even cooked I removed it from the sandwich and ate what was left felt dissatisfied . Cooks need to be careful raw pork is not good for you. Did not send it back for fear they might do something to the sandwich. read more

IHOP - Half raw bacon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lorton, Virginia

Tastes like every ihop you've ever eaten at. I've had some questionably cooked eggs at other ihops before, but I was happy to see that the whites were cooked all the way through at this one. When we went they were doing a lot of specials, including unlimited fries when you buy a burger, buy one get one free milkshakes, and unlimited pancakes when you buy an omelet. My only complaint is that we had to wait 20 minutes just to pay our bill at the end since no one was at the front. read more

IHOP - Country fried steak - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lorton, Virginia

I come today for my lunch. This white lady serves us. When ordering us a drink, it was a bit unfriendly, and I just thought it would be fine for me to have a meal. We ordered 2 glasses of orange juice and we waited for 20 minutes. When I ask her, she just gave us. I went to the front to find a server, and she told me that I had to wait 20 minutes. I say if you are busy I can understand food need to waiting 20 minutes, but only 2 glasses of orange juice. I am very angry with this, I said I want see your manager and she talk me you need to wait, I just said fine, I will not going a next time. The manager is in the store but she or he doesn't came out to fix this problem. I am server too, I can understand if you're busy I can wait, but it is not. read more

Kids love it so I have to go. Got seated pretty quick on a Sunday morning. Been a few times and food always seems to come out pretty slow. Got the burrito. Didn't look like the menu picture at all but was still good. Kids were happy with their food. Waitress was very friendly but we had a bit of a language barrier. Good experience. read more

My grandparents treated me for lunch while up visiting them, and this was the place they chose. The servers are NOT supported by the kitchen staff or the management, and as someone who started working in the food industry, it's very obvious where the real problem lies. It's unfortunate that I have to explain who is really to blame for the poor service to my grandparents so they wouldn't take mental note when leaving her a tip. This IHOP needs to make changes ASAP. read more

Everything was great from the customer service over the phone to the food. Very well organized and order was exactly what I ordered. I also ordered a cheesesteak stacker and size of turkey sausage and both were just as perfect as the breakfast feast! All this food and ready in under 25 minutes! read more

IHOP - Breakfast family feast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lorton, Virginia

The food was fine, a but cold. The problem was it took 45 minutes to get the food, the manager was apathetic, and when we needed something (more water, an additional order). When the manager asked how was everything I told.him food took a long time and instead of just apologizing he said, "we the cook staff is very tired". They worked the graveyard, getting off at 6, then had to come in at 10am and pull a 12hr shift. When I asked him who came up with that crazy schedule he didnt respond. The server was very nice, but it took 2 hours to eat when it wasn't very busy, and the focus for this location in the "service" industry is not focused on customers, and the problem seems to lay in poor management and NOT the other employees. read more

I'm glad I didn't read the reviews before we went, because we had a great experience. Traveling south from New England on Easter morning, we stopped in for breakfast. We were immediately greeted by 2 employees, one who was a very smiley, cheerful woman. We were seated immediately, and our waiter was at our table within 2 minutes. He was very friendly and joked with us. My husband got eggs Benedict, and besides 1 egg yolk being a little overdone, he said it was good. My daughter and I split the protein pancakes, which were tasty for protein pancakes! lol I hadn't been to an iHop in years, so I'm not sure if the syrup is always so diluted tasting (I tried 3 flavors). But at least it wasn't sickeningly sweet. Our waiter was very attentive with refills and clearing plates, and even took away my empty sugar packets and creamer cups before our food came. The 1 thing that impressed me the most was how clean it was! Not a crumb in sight. Clean menus and condiments. My husband said the men's room was super clean and had fresh ice in the urinal. The ladies room smelled freshly clean and the stalls were immaculate. Nothing inspires confidence more than a clean restaurant. I took a star off given the food was your typical, average chain fare, but the staff and cleanliness were 5 star. read more

This was the worst worst experience. The food is underdone dishes and silverware are dirty Just overall worst experience read more

IHOP - Under cooked Sirloin Steak Tips & Eggs - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lorton, Virginia

I've been to this location several times and each time the servers have been very friendly, helpful and efficient. Not sure how they manage it, but everyone who works there always has a positive attitude and they seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs and interacting with the customers. The food is good and always served promptly and piping hot. I typically get an omelet & pancakes which are great. My dining companions have gotten a variety of dishes and always enjoy them as well. I'm already looking forward to the next time I'm in the area. read more

Saturday around 8:50pm- 9:20 I go in with a party of four adults (including myself) and two kids,for my friends birthday. Let me start by saying that even on my worst days as a server, I put my best foot forward. This waiter did not give AF. Others at my table were pissed, but I tried giving him the benefit of the doubt. When my food came out, the whites of my eggs were running clear like water, seeping onto everything surrounding them. Normally I never send food back ~ I already felt like a huge inconvenience, but I was so hungry and had been looking forward to eating "bad" all week. The raw egg plate sat in front of me while my waiter ordered me fresh sides. By the time my food came, someone at my table had already asked to speak to a manager. The manager tried telling me "the eggs were more over easy, right?" almost as if he didn't believe me. I have worked as a cook in a family owned cafe, cracking eggs over skillets all day long. Over easy, medium, hard... this egg was raw, undercook, could get people a sick; raw. In the end, I lost my appetite and since I barely ate, the manager was kind enough to take it off the check. I can't see myself going back to this IHOP again. Two stars instead of one because my boyfriend and I came here on two occasions before tonight that weren't such terrible experiences. read more

IHOP - Great breakfast ! Ray our server was awesome ( Merry Christmas to all ) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lorton, Virginia

This is the worst restaurant in Lorton. We waited for more than 15 minutes with no other customers on site. We were seated and waited another 10 minutes without anybody coming to our table. When we got up to leave after 1/2 hour of waiting the front guy stated that he was ready to serve us. We simply left. Abject rudeness and ignoring by that staff. We will never go back!!!!! read more

Stopped here off the highway. Standard IHOP menu and cooked very well. Food came out quickly and was cooked well. Resolved an issue with promptness and friendliness. Coffee cup was refilled before it was empty. Definitely recommended. read more

Second time ordering with DoorDash and second time with part of the order missing. Will not try a third time.

The food and service wasn't bad but it was way to hot in there it makes it uncomfortabe in there to eat. I wouldnt go back or recommed this place to anyone to eat there. read more

Just had breakfast here and boy was it a mess. The hostesses here need to be fired. It's a Sunday and its Ihop so of course the place is going to be packed and have a waiting list. Well the waiting area can only hold so many, so alot of the people were standing outside or in the first entrance....these ladies never went out into the first entrance or outside to get the correct party, they just moved on to the next person on the list. That's horrible customer service. The group that was right infront of us on the list, we saw them go outside. So when the hostess called their name we yelled out that they went outside....she didn't care and she didn't move. I ordered biscuits and gravy that were extremely dry and very minimal on the gravy. During my meal I watched all the workers to see how they were handling everything. Hostesses took people to their table but then just placed the menus in a pile on the table and immediately ran off. Is it that much trouble to hand them to the actual customers once they sit? The rest of the mistakes I won't bother mentioning because it seemed more like they were associated with this being a newly opened establishment and I can understand it not being perfect yet. I'll pass on breakfast, maybe i'll come back for dinner. read more

If you're going to advertise that you have gluten free items then HAVE THEM IN STOCK! I dint to to IHOP very often but the times I've gone in different locations all over the country they have been out of their gluten friendly waffle. Take it off the menu if you're not going to have it or have it in stock. So frustrating!!!!! read more

we came in was about to be seated the ihop wasn't full there was obviously open seats and I asked the manager if we can have a booth and he said no and I asked well why not he said it was already taken but I had called in earlier and asked to reserve a seat and they declined and said no so therefor I stated how's the booth taken if you can't reserve seats so then he told me and my wife that we have to wait another person not knowing sat us down in a open booth and the manager and another lady complained and said they have to wait and were screaming across the ihop another table (a dad and child) had the same issue with 1 menu and poor service so I said is there a problem ? And the manager came out of no where and screaming again they HAVE TO WAIT NO FOOD and so I said that's unprofessional and if we have to wait longer than expected I'd gladly leave no one responded so till now waiting to be serviced yet again and the person who was yelled at for seating us not knowing the situation got in trouble I apologized to her and the manager got mad and threatened me. Poor service here. I asked for their names to put in here but they refused one of the waiters that got mad is named fatou. read more

Food was okay but they seem to be relaxing the distancing and disposable utensils and covered water. We had terrible service from a young waiter this morning who was slow and disinterested. Would walk out if this was our waiter again. read more

Service was good. Food was good. EXCEPT--the wheat bread was the worst piece of bread I have ever eaten. A tasteless piece of cardboard. They used to have pretty good wheat bread. Please find a new vendor. read more

First time there, and I was impressed by their decor and appearance. Loved the grandeur bid door entrance and the way they decorated the inside of the restaurant.

Now this IHOP compared to the last one I went to was perfect. Customer service! Wait time on food! Interactions! Cleanliness! Food! Perfect!!! Thank you for awesome service. Don't change a thing you all deserve a raise. My server name was Xiomara! She was awesome! read more

By far the worst customer service I've ever experienced. I've called this location on several occasions and they fail to answer the phone, or they place you on hold never to return. I recently called she the associate placed me on hold for 10 mins and then I finally hung up and could not get back through. Only to drive over there to see the phone off the hook. When I pointed out there phone was off the hook the response was "I know". As if we customers who call in orders are somewhat annoying. Never going back taking my business elsewhere. read more

Stood there for thirty minutes and no hostess. People couldn't pay. People couldn't sit. Unreal.

Ordered a few items and left IHOP hungry the for First Time. French toast shown the egg batter but did not get a full coat and was undercooked. Southwest Scramble was pretty much Scrambled eggs with Salsa and Avocado on the side. Everyone left disappointed. My 7 y/o wanted McD's after we left. read more

I ordered through DoorDash and half my food didn't show up. I contacted this Ihop and manager said he would correct my order and deliver the food himself, he asked for directions and I'm like don't you have a navigation? Food never arrived. My other food I did get got cold waiting and in the end tasted horrible. Good news I got full refund from door dash. Worst Ihop I've gotten food from read more

Came in for breakfast and the manager is airing the restaurants issues to the entire waiting area. I suppose they were understaffed and overbooked and she let everyone know. She wouldn't answer incoming calls and was yelling, literally screaming out peoples names to be sat. People ended up leaving. Horrible service. The horror show continues, a teenager came in asking about an application they submitted and the same manager (older, red head) yelled at him. Kid just left. This lady obviously hates working here, leave and stop making everyone here miserable. read more

Too expensive for a simple breakfast. Poor quality bacon. Slow service. One tiny pad of butter for 2 pieces of toast.

I ordered my food from the IHOP app on the phone. I usually did order like that without any problem. Today, I ordered it again, I came to pick up my order, and they said there's no pick up order from mobile order. Then, I showed the manager with their location, the time, the date, and the money they charged it already. He said I could cancel it online, but I can't. I ask him what to do when they charged me already my order. The only way I can get my food is to order it again at the store and pay AGAIN. That's ridiculous when I showed the receipt and the MANAGER still took my order and charged me again. You couldn't get your food if IHOP SYSTEM BROKE. Thank you for your HELP Mr.Manager. Hope the IHOP can have more MANAGER like that when the customer showed your receipt and you still charged them with the same order. F***!!!! read more
