original pancake house

theeggsand pancakes i ordered were undercooked. my date's were as well. gross! they have a great menu and we had high expectations but were very let down by the quality of the food. you would think that they would have their a team on for sunday breakfast.

not an ihop at all. my new favorite place for breakfast! i have been a few times and sampled the banana pancakes,eggs& bacon, and the apple waffle. mmmmmmm all terrific. the syrups they serve are great (they have a hawaiian syrup that is awesome. be sure to order a side of bacon- it's the best ever. definitely eat here!

best breakfast i've had in some time. grade: b

it had been years since we ate at original pancake house and decided to try it again this morning. best idea of the day.

the cherry kijafa crêpes were huge, filled with cherries and covered in a delicious cherry sauce. the real whipped cream really made the dish.

i didn't feel like pancakes, and instead ordered the works (2 eggs, 2 strips of bacon and hash brown) but substituted toast for the 3 buttermilk pancakes that normally come with the order. the scrambledeggswere fluffy, the hash browns crispy. their thick cut bacon was a nice change from the normal greasy, thin strips in most restaurants. but the bread that was used for the toast - thick, white bread that tasted freshly baked - was really a surprise.

this is now a solid option for weekend breakfasts for us.

great food, great service, and theeggsmaxie are wonderful, as is there hash browns, and thuck baco slices!

the worst place i've ever been, food was f**ing nasty, theeggswere full of grease, really really bad experience

the best breakfast place west of new york. great food..and for 20 years this place has a waiting line to get in. the swedish pancakes are fabulous and the fresh orange juice is great.eggsmaxwell is super and if you think you might like something you haven,t tried..you will. i drive an hour on weekends just to have a good breakfast. great place

best option for pancakes!. this place is fantastic if you're in the mood for some flap jacks. i was excited to find out about this place on here and to see they made sourdough pancakes, just like they made in the old days. it's hard to find those around here. i liked all the options listed online, but unfortunately the coconut pancakes are not offered here, which is a real bummer since they sounded amazing. my wife got the hawaiian pancakes (crushed pineapple w/ tropical syrup, which was largely made of tangerine juice concentrate) and i had the sourdough w/ the regular syrup. i'm normally a goetta andeggswith potatoes and dry toast kinda guy (b/c most breakfast meats are too fattening and gristly for my taste) but the wafting smell of breakfast in this place made me decide to order something on the side for a change - 4 sausage links and an over medium egg. the egg was covered in oil, but cooked well. slightly rubbery, but forgivable. the links were sausage links. i don't know why i ordered them since i don't like them. they were greasy as expected and fine, but holy overinflated prices, batman. $1.50 for one egg and $3.50 for 4 sausage links?!?!?! what the hell is that? i can get a dozeneggsand a pound of sausage for that. twoeggswere $2.50. wtf, oph? at least i won't order that again. the point being the side item traditional breakfast fare is not that great and overpriced. the decaf coffee was oily and slightly bitter, but ok for one cup or less. anymore and i'd probably get sick.

now that that's out of the way, back to the cakes. for $7 i got 8 sourdough pancakes. that's a much better deal i think. my wife got 5 or 6 (hers were thicker). it's clear the emphasis here is the pancakes, and with so many great options why choose anything else. her hawaiian pancakes were sweet and full of citrus flavor from the tropical syrup. a good combination. mine were sow-er! very sour and hands down some of the absolute best pancakes i have ever had in my life. the syrup had a good maple taste, but could have been stronger for me, but i really liked that it was thinner. most syrup is to thick and full of sugar. theirs is sweet and thinner (be careful - it will run as you pour it), which is great b/c it will actually absorb into the pancakes instead of just sitting on top of them. i had enough pancakes to take half home. it took the girl about 10-15 minutes to come back with a box (i started to wonder if they were making a box from scratch) but she was nice and the rest of the service was fine. the wait wasn't bad at 1:30 on a saturday, but i bet it's hell in the mornings. either way, i'll make the half hour drive and go back again. probably in a few weeks.

too greasy. i went here for the first time last week with a friend. it was packed at noon , and the server we had was overwelmed with customers , i counted at least 17 at one point in her station. i ordered the buttered onion hash browns with bastedeggsand pancakes. my friend ordered plain crepes with lemon and powder sugar and the hash browns . our order came out and myeggswere not basted but more liked cooked over easy cause there was oil all over them , this is not basted ! the puffed hash browns were swimming in butter and bland raw inside cause the onion wasnt even cooked thru. the pancakes were good but not great. now my friends crepes were wonderful and her hash browns were nice and crispy i should have sent mine back , but figured it would take longer and didnt want to wait. so i guess if you want breakfast thats just okay give this place a try.

not as good as advertised. hard review. i was expecting a lot more then what we got here. service was very slow and in the nedeggswere not cooked right and the pancakes were very disapointing. looks like a local hangout though with lots of regulars who like it but our first (maybe only) experience was not great. dont hate place but since i only get an up/down vote i vote down.
