Hi my names Jessica and I was chosen to be a secret diner at IHOP. The IHOP my boyfriend and I went to is located at 4510 W 41st Street in Sioux Falls, SD. As we arrived, we noticed the parking lot was pretty full.
When we checked in they told us it would only be a 10 minute wait. There were quite a few people waiting in the lobby so we were pretty surprised when she told us it was only going to take 10 minutes. When our name was finally called we ended up waiting 15 minutes, which wasn't a big deal for us. The hostess was very friendly as she showed us to our table and told us our waitress would be with us shortly. We weren't even seated for a minute when our waitress came over and greeted us, her name was Sara, and asked what we wanted to drink. We ordered a couple waters and she went and got them and came back and asked if were ready to order. Since we haven't been there in years we told her we needed more time.
She came back a few minutes later and took our order. After we ordered we decided to order the 100% Paradise juice that was being advertised on our table. We stopped our waitress as she was walking by and she went and got them for us right away. Our food arrived fairly quickly. It took us longer to order than it did to wait for our food. Since the time we checked in and the time we got our food took exactly half an hour.
I ordered the Split Decision, which came with two pancakes, two bacon strips, two sausage links, two slices of French toast and two eggs of my choice. I used the blueberry syrup on my pancakes and it was delicious! Everything I got tasted great and fresh. I wanted to order some dessert but I was way too full and couldn't even finish all of my food.
I would rate IHOP 5 out of 5 stars and would recommend this restaurant to everyone. It is the perfect diner for any occasion, with the whole family or even a date night. It is such a nice restaurant that I will be visiting a lot more in the future! Thank you US Mystery Shopper for choosing me to be a secret diner at IHOP!
