Update 7 June 2023
It has been over 9 months since last visit.
I wanted to try again. After all I am sure the last cook is gone and things have been improved.
I requested the same thing I had 9 months ago.
The cook needs to learn how to make scrambled eggs. I received eggs that were cooked flat then chopped into squares. The eggs were cold and tough. The sausages were cold. The hash browns were not crispy but hard on one side and soft on the other. The hash browns were also cold.
The only thing that was acceptable was the french toast.
Maybe I am expecting too much. This used to be a great place, not anymore.
If the owner does not turn this place around. They will end up closing like the Palm Bay Diner. They had great food when the "new" owner opened up. After about four months the cook was changed. I quit going. The new owner made a lot of changes. Did not work.
I have a better breakfast going to two different close by locations.
I did contact the owner before coming back yesterday. I wanted to see if anything has improved.
Annie was my server. Always great. I don't understand why she did not tell the owner or the manager I was unhappy. Maybe neither was there.
I may go back in another 9 months to try again. Only if they are still open.

I have been a customer when they were IHop. Many years. I have a select wait staff I ask for each trip.
All of my trips only one time has the manager talked with me.
Monday (Aug 8, 2022) I stopped for breakfast. I requested french toast, two eggs scrambled, bacon, hash browns crispy and coffee.
The eggs were super dry and robbery. The hash browns were uncooked inside and dripping in oil. Both were so bad I could not eat. The bacon was over cooked and brittle. The coffee. Apparently they changed to a cheaper brand and added water to serve more customers. The only thing worth eating was the french toast.
I told my server what had happened. She said she would talk to the manager. The manager did not come out to talk with me. I thought that was unprofessional. The manger did not offer to comp my meal. He charged me for the coffee and french toast.
He charged me over $7.00 for this.
If he would have offered to comp the breakfast I would have refused. But he never gave me the chance.
If they continue to provide this type of service and this low quality food. They may have to close their doors.
Already their hours have been cut again.
I will not go back because of the way a loyal customer has been treated. I was never looking for a free meal.
I believe (if they continue treating their customers to low quality food) they will be closing their doors before the end of this year.
This is my opinion from my experience over the many years as a loyal customer.
