Reviews for The Original Pancake House Minnetonka in Maple Grove, MN

Highly recommend a reservation during any peak hours. Counter was a great alternative for small groups (1-3) Had the eggs... Benedict, very tasty and rich. Fair prices but not cheap, especially for a group. Read more

10-26-2022 We decided to have some pancakes for breakfast. We have passed this place thousands of times over the years using... 494. Never stopped in, big mistake. Man oh man that food was delicious. Very strong and tasty coffee. The pancakes, sausage,crepes and fruit heavenly. We will be back in the future. Read more

My roommate and I have been regulars here every Saturday for the last month since I moved to MN, and I’m honestly disappointed... with the way the servers act here. Almost all of them are always checking their phones, rushing patrons to place orders &dropping checks when people are not even halfway finished with their food (myself included). I was a server for nearly 5 years &I was trained to not drop a check until the entire party finished their plate, or at least until the paying party/someonerequested it (if others were still eating, regardless of 1 or separate checks). I feel like any of these are distasteful &careless moves, regardless of the notoriety of an establishment. I don’t care if it’s a 5 Star Restaurant with Michelinawarded chefs or a Taco Bell, you’re working in the food & beverage industry for a reason- to provide great service toeveryone. I always tip 20%+, and my male server still received it even with the poor taste in judgement. I’m not tipping youto sit on your phone, to give me a condescending attitude or to be rushed out the door. Maybe I’m wrong and this is a policyset forth by the company. But regardless, this location is lacking in their customer service. I don’t know if I’d ever comeback, and it sucks because the food is great for their price points. Read more

Let me start by saying each of the pancakes I tried were delicious but the peach pancake was by far the best thing I’ve ever... eaten for breakfast! It’s a seasonal item but man I’m glad I was in town for it. The lovely spread you see in the photo wasonly $20 and some change. Any time I’m in town I’m coming to this place for breakfast and I’m inviting people. Service wassuper great and the prices were even better. They are so many selections of pancakes ????!! Read more

This place never disappoints! One if my favorite breakfast places. The pancakes have been great every time I have had them. The... baked omelettes are amazing! We usually have great service. I highly recommend the strawberry pancakes I am pretty sure theyput a pint of fresh strawberries on top. I get mine without whip cream. Read more

Incredible! Upscale atmosphere, kind and smiling/ helpful waitstaff, and food that made an impact. Ashley waited on us, and I... think we could be the best of friends! The Lumberjack Bowl was amazing, the buttermilk pancakes had such a distinctive taste,and the iced latte was delicious (more coffee than sweet sugar- yum!). My husband found the gem as we stopped during our drivefrom TN to ND. Definitely worth a detour stop! Read more

GET IN MY BELLY! This egg salad sandwich is unbelievably good. But, wait, there’s more. The fresh fruit with cream is divine.... Our waitress behind the bar was a ray of sunshine. What a feel good place, belly up to the bar and have a great day. Read more

Busy! The staff were very friendly even though the place was packed. The food was incredible. They have so many pancake options.... I love the Baby Dutch, but you can choose from almost anything you can imagine. We sat at the counter and really enjoyed it. Read more
