“My girlfriends and I come here once a month for breakfast before we go and play board games all day. First of all, the food could be terrible but we’d still come back because the wait staff is so personable and friendly. But the food is also always amazing so that is a perk! It doesn’t matter who our waiter is they all seem to meander over to say hi. Always so attentive and genuinely seem like they’re happy to be at work. I can’t wait until our next visit.“

“I took my husband to IHOP for Father's Day and had a wonderful experience! We brought our little grandson along, and our server was incredibly kind and patient with him (he is one), which made our visit even more special.

The food was delicious especially the pancakes and crispy hash browns. Everything came out hot and fresh, and the service was attentive from start to finish. Our server checked on us regularly and made sure we had everything we needed.

Great food, friendly service, and a family-friendly atmosphere made for a perfect Father's Day breakfast. We'll definitely be back! 🥞“

“Self service restaurants are the best. No more waiting for waiting staff. Super fast service. User interface is nice and clean. Food is amazing and good portion size. Place is nice and clean. Plenty of personal space to chat within the family instead of the waiting staff. Highly recommend. Other restaurants should follow suite. And not just because of Covid. This is the future. Waiters should go to coding school instead of struggling with tables. It’s just better for everyone. I mean, I got my water when I wanted it! Is that too much to ask? LOL“

“Saw this old school looking diner as we were passing, and decided to go back and try their breakfast. Visually, there is a lot going on in here, as there should be. This family owned restaurant has been around for 40 years, so there is a lot of history represented here.

When we walked in, we were the only people in the place, so service was quick. We spent a fair amount of time talking to the owner, who was very friendly and willing to share his family's story with us. I loved that the cook (also family I'm sure, but I didn't ask) was at the grill, which was in full view of our table. It was like watching my mother cook when I was a kid, and it tasted the same way. Our Buckeye Brutus Breakfasts were hot and delicious. Nothing fancy, but that's what was so great about it. A classic breakfast that totally hit the spot. When we were done, the owner offered us to go coffees for the ride home, which was very much appreciated since we were driving back to Wisconsin.

This is a great place to stop for a no frills, amazing, home cooked breakfast. Friendly service, relaxing vibe, and a place where it's easy to feel like family.“

“Very tasty breakfast menu – – definitely hit the spot at 3 o’clock in the morning after watching two back to back world camp matchups. The Argentina fans were definitely super pumped over messy, and the fact that the reigning world champions will definitely be advancing to the next round, the semifinals. The waffles were delicious, especially the blueberry feature – – and the wonderful waitress even added some extra blueberries on the side. The coffee was black and super super hot, definitely fresh and made to order. The eggs over easy were perfect for dipping toast into their perfectly cooked center. This is definitely a high energy location, with tons of casino traffic. Gamblers that have usually one big or have fared not so well. The hashbrowns were delicious too. Keep up the good work!“

Every single person working this morning greeted us, service was very fast, everyone asked how our food was and everyone seemed genuinely happy and nice. You don’t find that often anymore. Good job to all staff that worked this morning around 8:00am! Hopefully your boss does whatever they need to do to keep you guys there.“
