I recently stopped by the IHOP in Encino and ordered the Spinach & Mushroom Omelette, which was very good. A nice perk is their current special: when you order an omelette, you also get unlimited pancakes — definitely a good value. I do think they need to expand their vegetarian options though, since right now there are only a couple of choices on the menu.
However, I was a little disappointed that the omelette doesn’t come with any bread or toast on the side, which was quite surprising.
The location itself is smaller than some other IHOPs I’ve been to, but the patio dining is pleasant and makes up for it. There’s also a free parking lot, which is really convenient. If you download the IHOP app, you can get a free breakfast item on your next visit, which is a nice bonus.
Service was excellent — my waitress, Thalia was extremely fast, attentive, and friendly, which made the experience even better. Overall, a good spot for a hearty breakfast in Encino, especially if you enjoy omelettes and pancakes.

Jose our server gave us great service. He welcomed our family with a smile. Came with my daughter and husband after church service; we ordered the breakfast sampler. Food came out fast and hot. We truly enjoyed our service here! 10/10!

It was past 12:00 a.m. when I craved their food. It's been a while since I've been to any ihop so I came to dine in.
I ordered their chicken quesadilla and their version of it is different. It's not cheese, onions, and chicken like usually served somewhere else. But it's veggies,cheese, and chicken breast which tastes like chicken sausages.
I also ordered the seafood sampler which was good.

We chose it for breakfast with our friends. As usual, it was very delicious. I think the service could be friendlier.

Very nice place!
Very good service, polite, fast, efficient, workers. The air conditioner is very good, made the place well- ventilated. Good job Jose! Overall good experience with the family.
