Super fun little knick knacky spot. Kind of feels like you're in an 80's sitcom hangout. The ladies are very sweet! The food was quite good, including a gluten-free selection. If I lived a little closer I would be a regular- but instead I'll be an occasional visitor. Either way, I'll definitely be back!

Website advertises gluten free options. However, server didn't know what gluten was (she thought corn tortillas contained gluten) and refused to ask kitchen if menu items had gluten or could be modified. She threw up her hands and said "well I don't know". I went with gf pancakes to be safe as they were the only thing clearly marked. They were decent and the bloody Mary was pretty good. Overall nothing to write home about but not bad. My suggestion to management would be if you're going to advertise about having gf options please educate your staff on what those options are.

4 words: gluten free French toast! It was delicious. I hadn't had French toast in almost 3.5 years since becoming gluten intolerant, and felt great after! They also have other gluten free options and great bacon. We showed up right at opening, 6am, after driving 11.5 hours on a road trip. The kindness of the waitress and great food made for a great start to the day :)

It was early for a Wednesday dinner so there were few cars in the lot. And the way the place looks, we almost turned away, but decided to take a chance. Boy we’re glad we did. The food and the service were great! Three of our party had gluten free sandwiches, the one cook in our group smelled the fried chicken upon entry, and it lived up to his expectations. Get a slice of pie for dessert. They’re home made, including the whipped cream.

The good is that there are gluten free items on their menu and staff seemed knowledgeable. Staff were friendly and nice. Prices were high. Presentation was very nice on items ordered. The shrimp cocktail very good and not skimpy. The octopus starter dish Super chewy, not done properly. MaiTai was very good. Old Fashions came with nothing to stir with so folks were complaining about that. The Tiger Shrimp and Grits...shrimp was good, the grits were too thick and gummy, the whole plate very salty. Over all a meh experience and we won't be going back. Too expensive for a meh experience.

IHOP, despite being short-staffed with just one server and one cook during my visit, managed to deliver a satisfying meal. The wait for food and service was longer than usual, but the quality and taste of the dishes were commendable. Particularly impressive are their gluten-free options, which are delicious and cater well to those with dietary restrictions. Additionally, IHOP remains an affordable option for those looking for a good meal without breaking the bank. If you're not in a rush and looking for tasty, budget-friendly dining, IHOP is worth the visit.

A Charming and Delicious Breakfast Experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Home Sweet Home Breakfast Restaurant truly lives up to its name! I had the pleasure of dining here last weekend, and I can't say enough good things about my experience. First and foremost, the atmosphere is incredibly cozy and welcoming. The decor is charming with its warm colors and vintage touches, making it feel like you're eating breakfast at a close friend's home. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure all guests are taken care of promptly and courteously. The menu is extensive and offers something for everyone. Classic breakfast items like eggs, bacon, and pancakes are done to perfection, while unique dishes like their avocado toast with poached eggs and salsa verde provide a delightful twist on traditional favorites. I personally ordered the veggie omelette with a side of their famous home fries, and it was absolutely delicious. The omelette was fluffy and loaded with fresh vegetables, while the home fries were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. One thing that really stood out to me was the quality of the ingredients. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, which is a testament to their commitment to using locally sourced produce and meats. The coffee was also top-notch, bold and smooth without being bitter – the perfect complement to my meal. The prices are reasonable considering the quality of the food and the portion sizes. I felt that I got great value for my money, and I left feeling full and satisfied. Another bonus is that they offer vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, so everyone in your group is sure to find something they'll love. In addition to the amazing food and cozy atmosphere, the location of Home Sweet Home Breakfast Restaurant is convenient and easy to find. There's ample parking available, which is always a plus when dining out in California. One small note: the restaurant can get quite busy during peak hours, so it's a good idea to arrive early or make a reservation to avoid a long wait. But trust me, it's worth the wait! They also offer takeout and delivery services for those who prefer to enjoy their breakfast at home or on the go. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Home Sweet Home Breakfast Restaurant to anyone looking for a delightful and satisfying breakfast experience in California. I can't wait to return and try more of their scrumptious dishes. If you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favor and pay them a visit – your taste buds will thank you!
