Reviews for The Original Pancake House in Aliso Viejo, CA
I actually like this place the food is good and the portions are huge. The severs are fast and friendly. However their crapes... are not really crapes but more like a globs of sauce, dough, and spinach. The flavor was there but the presentation and texturewere all wrong. Could not eat it so the manager took it off are bill. Parking is very tight and the waits are no shorter then 35min. Read more
The portions are HUGE and the food is excellent. There can often be a long wait to get in, but it is worth it. I suggest the... apple pancake, it isn't just a regular old pancake with apples on top, it is much better! But, perhaps share the order as adessert for the whole table. Read more
Stopped by this morning and had a wonderful breakfast of eggs, potatoes, sausage and pancakes. So so good but too much... food..could not finish it all but oh so tasty. My server JR was very pleasant and quite efficient. The restaurant is clean andthey have installed plexiglass dividers at booth locations which looks great and protects your space from dreaded germs and theCOVID monster. The coffee was fantastic and yummy. I truly enjoyed the food, which was well prepared and tasty, the service,which was top notch and the environment, which was clean and well maintained. They even had some good background music going onlike Otis Redding and Joe Cocker kinda tunes. Thanks to the staff and JR specifically. Highly recommended Read more
I thought I took more photos than these but I scarfed down that cup of freshly squeezed orange juice too quickly... so here's a... photo of my husband's cup of juice behind the sauces. I ordered the blueberry waffle with a side of bacon strips, and the hubbygot the eggs michael. We both finished everything since it was that good! The blueberry waffle syrup was PERFECTION. Not toosweet, and still had that refreshing fruity taste unlike most syrups. The staff was also super friendly and gave off a warm,comfortable vibe. Feels like home dining here and food tastes home made (but better since I can't cook to this level at homelol)! Came here on a Friday morning for brunch so the wait wasn't bad (about 15 minutes). Be prepared for a long wait on theweekends! Read more
I've never had a breakfast so big and delicious in a long time. We had a 20 minute wait but it was worth it. It was fast,... delicious, every dish was well made. The crepe had so much fruit in it and the right amount of Nutella. The western omelet wasperfectly made with lots of veggies and súper fluffy. And the apple pancake was so yummy like a apple pie but better. Irecommend this so much. And also the waiter was so friendly and was attentive with us. Read more
This place is decent but the service could definitely be better. You have to ask for things several different times before they... are brought to you. Coffee is way overpriced especially if the server doesn't refill your cup until you're done with your mealdespite asking multiple times. Probably won't be back. Read more
