“While staying in Huntington Beach this week we felt overwhelmed by the crowds so we went off in search of something off the beach neighborhood. My brother had told me about Norms so we decided to check it out. Parking was easy and once inside we walked in to a short wait that ended up being longer because they seemed to have no hostess. Once seated by what ended up being our waiter our drink order was taken and of course our food moments after. Portions were good size and our waiter was great. They may want to spray for ants though. Halfway through our meal we saw quite a few tiny ones making their way in through the window seal. Other than that place was clean. You pay up front when you’re done.“

“Stopped by for breakfast on the way to work I live about an hour and a half away but with traffic we had to leave almost 3 hours early or we would be stuck in bumper to bumper traffic so we got to the venue super early decided to go have breakfast I haven't been to a IHOP in years but I gotta say that all changed after this visit food great we gotta bunch of food ate like it was our last meal and surprisingly didn't feel all crappy and sluggish after and didn't get hungry til it was lunch time for us that's a big deal we work our a#$ off and by lunch time we are starting again so now any time we gotta go do jobs that are far we find the nearest IHOP .... it's been about 2 weeks and 3 different ihops gotta say haven't had a bad experience at all yet“

“dank AF dank AF dank AF dank AF dankest of the dank“

“Friendly staff and fresh, delicious food! Highly recommend.“

“First time there and the food was delicious. Highly recommend the Concha French toast and the crepes. But our waitress Sugey was horrible. We asked for another fork because we were only given one and she said she would bring us 1 and coffee. She took forever, she kept getting distracted. Then when she finally saw me looking at her, she remembered the fork but forgot the coffee. Few minutes later she came with the coffee and we said thank you and her tone was not a happy one. The place wasn't really that busy. The others waitresses were helpful and pleasant. So I put 1 star for service because of her. But everything else was good.“

“Let's start with the Cons:
1. No sitting place to eat.
2. I want another Burrito Now ??

Honestly Great Bweakfast Burrito ?
Salsa is Chunky with the perfect amount of kick from the spiciness. The cheeeesss pull ! (I like to cut or pull my burritos in half , this one was a pull)
Super Cheesy, Perfect portions thru our the burritoo

Most Definitely recommend. Try it for yourself to just say, Yes! This one is it! ?

5/5 food
4/5 Atmosphere“

“I stumbled upon the breakfast burrito on social media and was pleasantly surprised by its taste. The coffee was equally impressive. However, I found the ordering process a bit confusing due to the numerous closed counters. I think I just went at a slow time. Despite this minor inconvenience, the staff was exceptionally friendly and I will go again“

“Likely will be our go to breakfast place. High quality food and great service. Pancakes are great. I had the chilquiles which are very good. Crispy nachos with tasty beans. Would recommend adding meat or something to it as the portion is on the small side.“

“Service and breakfast was excellent“

“Get the Ribeye California Loaded Breakfast Burrito with Light Cheese! Didn't spike my blood sugar beyond 110mg/dl! That's pretty good for a burrito! This is where my daughter has breakfast before going to school after surf class on 9th Street.“

“We love the pancake house in Las Vegas, but have not been to another location. This location in Huntington Beach is very nice with indoor/outdoor seating options. The food and service were great, but I will say that the large orange juice is way overpriced for the amount you’re receiving. I highly recommend the 49er flapjacks and a side of bacon?“

“CASH ONLY. French Toast Combo eggs, bacon $12. That’s unheard of it was delicious service was superb. I just wish there were some signs pointing it was cash only as cash is tight right now. I get it though they can keep the cost down haven’t been to a cash only joint in years.“

“This cafe is located tight near Hoag hospital, and is perfect for a quick bite if you are waiting at the hospital. They offer real food, far from your typical hospital cafeteria. To top it off the staff is SO friendly and the food is good to top it off.“

“This is my new favorite donut shop! Their teas/smoothies, and sandwiches are incredible.

They really deserve to be busy, and I'd highly recommend coming here to try out their sandwiches, especially the Pastrami. They add plenty of veggies, and jalapeños which is a really nice touch. Absolutely tasty. Staff is very nice and friendly, they have made the two trips I've had a great experience. Thank you! I will be back and highly recommend coming here for some great Donut shop food and drinks.

Vegetarian options: All donut, and smoothies are vegetarian they also have egg sandwiches as well.

Dietary restrictions: I have not seen options for milk replacement so just keep that in mind.

Parking: Small parking lot because there are a lot of businesses here that are quite busy, but it depends on what time you come.

Kid-friendliness: Donuts are all sure to be loved by the kids. Juice options are available as well.

Wheelchair accessibility: You could definitely fit a wheelchair in the store and at the tables.“

“Love their burgers with the garlic spread and their green tea donuts Great service too“

“Delicious and very nice set of menu“

“It’s such a delicious place. I never thought of posting photos and reviews. It’s been a long time since I ate there. It’s the best and only restaurant in the company building. But it’s delicious. You can come here every day and never get tired of it.“

“This place has, by far, the best breakfast shop around! The avocado breakfast burrito is my fav!“

“Oh my gosh.... this place is so out of the way that I hadn't noticed it, and by complete accident, we ended up here. It is Amaaaazzzzing!!! I got the lox on an everything bagel... the prices are reasonable, not inexpensive but well worth the money. There is outside seating so bring your dog and have a seat, enjoy your food.“

“I was going to put a two stars for the service but because of Abby’s service I put four stars she was very attentive kind and we could tell she was working really hard. Thank You Abby! Oh btw the dulce de leche crepes were really yummy! ?“

“The Huntington Beach IHOP is amazing. The food is delicious, the dishes are abundant and the service is unbeatable. It is very well located and the place is quiet.There is a free children's menu when adults order a drink, they have a menu for people over 55 years old and a lot of variety of dishes. The pancakes and chocolate were delicious and the drinks are repeatable.Many thanks to Juan, the dinner would not have been the same without him. He treated us with great affection, gave us conversation and was attentive to us at all times and has been very detailed with us. Thanks John!

Wheelchair accessibility: The entrance is large for wheelchair access. The tables are wide and the staff adapts the table to accommodate wheelchairs.“

“I Heart Pancakes is the best pancake place I've ever had. I've moved away and I think about it all the time. If I'm going to be near John Wayne airport in the daytime, I always make a point to stop by.

The pancakes are so good and the place is family-owned. They're always incredibly attentive and everything is delicious. I would give it 6 stars if I could.“

“We had a group of six people. And ordered a combination of tasty, Breakfast & Lunch menu items. We received what we all considered excellent service from Veronica R, who was very, responsive and attentive to all the many, special requests we had. And just had a great, overall, attitude & demeanor.“

“good not bad have good service“

“I rate their vegan dish a ten, with ten being the highest.“

“I had mix country breakfast is good the food is good and service is good they have coffee the price of coffee is little high $3.85 and they have French vanilla creamer and lots of parking and they have outside seating the place is small inside they have TV and restroom it's right across from the del taco and the 55 freeway and Chevron gas station.“

“I usually order from the Fantuan app. Today, I decided to order their Taiwanese breakfast again, which is really good and brings me back to my hometown, Taiwan. Their toast is substantial, and the BBQ pork rice, along with the old-fashioned black tea with soy milk, is delightful. I love their egg pancakes with tuna; it's very authentic. The host is friendly and welcoming. I'll keep coming back to support their business."“

“Had an absolutely amazing experience at IHOP today! The service was beyond exceptional. Our waitress was so attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed with a smile. It’s rare these days to find people who genuinely care about their customers, but she went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and appreciated.

The manager also took the time to check in on us, making sure everything was perfect. It’s clear they care about creating a wonderful experience for their guests. In a world where great service can be hard to find, IHOP absolutely nailed it. We felt valued and taken care of from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back! ?“

“It was such a pleasure having breakfast with Sarah this morning. I came to visit the area with intention to day drink while listening to Lana Del Day by the beach. Things took a tragic turn when I was attacked by a stingray yesterday at Huntington Beach within 20 minutes of my adventures. My dreams of a relaxing weekend suddenly side-f*cked by the marine kingdom left me feeling uninspired. Fortunately my foot didn’t fall off over night. So I decided to go to IHop for breakfast. I’m from Queens so the ones in my neighborhood are not like this one. Sarah embraced my eccentric wackiness. I shared my life story with her and she didn’t make me feel like a psycho. She is a true purposeful leader and sets the atmosphere so beautifully. I am a customer service instructor for American Airline’s 5 star service. Sarah is 10 star!!!“
