Excellent experience. Chicken Fajita Omelette was scrumptious and fresh, Butter milk pancakes were to die for, Classic burger needs improvement. As per COVID19 SOPs only outdoor sitting was available due to which they have a very limited space. Also something needs to be done about the flies. A bit on the high side though but totally worth it.

My wife and I were heading to Nandos for dinner one night when I spotted this place. I was surprised and delighted to find that there was an IHOP newly opened in Karachi.I had decided at that time that I would definitely bring my wife for breakfast/brunch whenever possible.So, we walked in one day in November 2020, and the dining room was very clean, fresh, well-lit, incredibly designed, and extremely inviting. I have never seen a better IHOP design anywhere in the United States.Washing my hands in the bathroom, I was delighted to see that facilities were very clean and well-maintained.Now to the food: the French toast was the least delicious item on the menu. In other words, it wasnt delicious at all. Very bland, dry, and lacking sweetness entirely. It was disappointing to say the least. The cheese omelet I had ordered was merely satisfactory; it lacked salt, which the cheese should have supplied.Now to the good stuff: the pancakes were delicious! My wife got the buttermilk pancakes and I got the chocolate chip. Mine were downright scrumptious. My wife also enjoyed her first-ever experience eating pancakes. Her cappuccino was also good.The service was very good on this visit.We decided that if we found the time, wed return for another meal before I had to return to the States.So, we did. This time, we got a Chicken Fajita omelet and it was worlds better than the cheese omelet we had ordered the first time. We also sampled a Belgian waffle and enjoyed that, as well.The fries we ordered were also hot, crispy, and delicious - a pleasant surprise.The main event, as always, was the chocolate chip pancakes and I enjoyed them just as much the second time as I did the first.The service on this second trip was excellent.Overall, I wish I had made more trips to this restaurant for the short time I was in Karachi. My wife loved the place and so did I.I wont talk about affordability like some reviews because I believe thats really subjective.I can only pray that my wife is here with me soon, so I can take her down the street to our local IHOP so that she can compare experiences.If you like American breakfast-fare, this restaurant is an absolute must.

IHOP (internationational house of pancakes). It is one of best place for non-desi breakfast and desserts. Ordered blue berry pancakes and strawberry, nutella waffels. Food presentation was perfect upto mark of stylish photography. All things are served fresh and melt in mouth quickly. Servings are huge and heavy. There is long que in parking and waiting list. Ambiance of place is really great. Very clean, bright, broad and appealing setting of sitting area with comfortable environment. Due to covid they have open sitting arrangement. Tried their breafast crepes and omlettes... amzing quality and taste.

Good to have iHop here in Karachi... Good taste and service, ambience also very refreshing... bit expensive though but a very good variety of breakfast items...

Terribly overpriced. I mean the high prices would be justifiable if the food was actually worth the money. But sadly, the quality of the food is not at all worth it. If the prices on the menu were halved, then Id say the food is worth the price. The food is mostly bland and generic, lacking uniqueness. As the pancakes of iHop are considered its best aspect, they tasted like pancakes you could simply make at home. Apart from the food, the service was substandard. Drinks arrived after food was finished. No waiters on the 1st floor and we had to walk downstairs every time to call someone. Could be better.

I ordered the 2 eggs quick breakfast with toast+2extra eggs. Serving size of beef bacon is so small. Also prices are out of touch with prices of local ingredients. Nice sitting spot outside though

Food is pricey but it was good. Pancakes were particularly great. As for burgers, even though they are really good, there are other places with burgers just as good but for half as much money. Still, you can expect good food here.

Absolutely pathetic attitude of the people there. I went there the first time with 3 friends. We regularly eat lunch around DHA and this was the first time we went to try IHOP. And actually we canceled our order and left. Before one tries the food, one has to deal with the people. They dont offer any valet service but also have encroached space of at least two cars in front of their gate. Despite the fact that we went to eat there and ordered, they didnt let my friend park our car there and rudely asked to park wherever. At least be courteous and offer your clients valet. There is nothing so special in you that we will run around finding a place to park. And its a public street. I will be putting an official complaint to DHA and other authorities as well. IHOP lost 4 regular customers today.

Just like how it tasted back in Chicago IL. ( except the hash browns though, they were burnt ) besides that everything was good!

Review №14

A good experience overall. Customer service is excellent. Atmosphere and food is both enjoyable. Biggest issue is that it is very expensive for a fast food joint. Not a lot of people would be willing to pay that much amount for a fast food chain and I fear that this may see the same fate as TGIF if it doesnt reduce its prices

IHOP has just started its operations in Pakistan. Pancakes are the best. Though they should use fresh fruits on them. Ambiance is great! You might need to wait a bit to get your table.

The wait was about 1 hour min at 930am. So i decided to get takeaway. I just had the eggs which were a good size and the nutella iced coffee was good too , i would prefer if they offered extra espresso shots with the coffee. Maybe next time when they arent swamped.

The food is severely overpriced & quality isn’t anywhere near where it should be.I had the original chicken sandwich which had a layer of beef strips which were super tough and hard to chew, otherwise the burger was extremely ordinary not worth the price at all.

The pancakes were doughy and gross, and i LOVE pancakes and was super hungry. They didnt even have blueberry available, tried their oreo, ny cheesecake and buttermilk. Highly disappointed, it has to be hard to get something as basic as pancakes wrong. Will never be coming back, honestly a waste of money.

I ate the buttermilk pancakes, it costed me around 400 rupees for 3 pancakes. They give maple syrup , butter and raspberry syrup with it. The taste was completely different that i what pancakes taste like , it had a certain smell to it which i didnt like However the ambiance and hospitality was great.Other than pancakes the dishes were expensive .

Cleanliness: 10/10Service: 10/10Food: 3/10Pancakes were disgusting, coffee tasted stale, eggs tasted like they had been stored in a coldstorage and then heated before serving. We ordered an appetizer platter which was bearable. But chicken in it was definitely very old and had its better life ruined in a coldstorage. Mozzarella cheese in the mozzarella sticks tasted horrible. Possibly old cheese.Oh and the blueberry pancakes had salty blueberries.

There is an hour wait on this saturday afternoon. Keep that in mind. Food was just like ihop in the US, no better or worse, service was very average but they just opened, we got the pancakes and toast after finishing the omlettes. I probably wouldnt go back even though it was good but The beef bacon was amazing so I have to. Wish they sold it in packs. It would be my breakfast forever.
