Original Pancake House

Great breakfast place, always crowded so expect to wait. Just as good as the original place on charleston.

Amazing food. Irish omelet is delish and the pancakes are always tasty. Mary is by far the best server I’ve had the pleasure to know.

It used to be good but this morning was such a disappointment! I ordered banana crêpe, German pancakes and egg Benedict! The egg Benedict was truly disgusting and banana crêpe was not good at all. What happened Original Pancake House? The only I ate was German pan cakes! You really need to step it up! Otherwise you will lose your customers slowly but surely!

The baked Spinach Omelette with Gouda cheese was superb! All the ingredients were very fresh. The best that I have ever tasted. The service was great and we did not have to wait a long time to get in for a Sunday morning.

Quick. Delicious. Exceptionally friendly.
The cherry crepes were out of this world. Possibly the best crêpe we’ve had.
The hash browns (traditional German style, not shredded) were «not as good as Oma’s, but close!»
As this IS the Original Pancake House, the pancakes did not disappoint. They were fantastic.
Our server, Jesse, was great. Attentive, personable, and on his game! A great experience and we will be sure to return!

Came for breakfast with my cousin an the service an food were great. I had blueberry pancakes and eggs, bacon an hash browns an it was all cooked perfectly. Loved the blueberry compote on the side. I also love how it wasn’t that busy an we were seated right away. Usually it’s a wait especially on the weekends. So I will definitely be back. Want to try the German pancakes…

Sat immediately with smile. Waiter Jesse? Fast friendly efficient. Food came out about 8 min maybe 9 wow! Very fair pricing and portions. Was surprised since my last 2 stops to eat breakfast today we’re much much higher priced.
No music so a bit blah. Décor needs some personalty even if u want to stay neutral u cud add something to it.
Service and food and prices 4 star décor 2.

The place deserves five stars however the service sometimes is not perfect. The food is good and the bacon is thick and delicious. The crepes are eggsellent and the omlets bigger than your face and thicker than your wrist. We have been coming here since their location on Decatur burned down. Love it! The are known for their Apple pancake which is smothered in apples with cinnamon sauce. Yummy!

I’ve passed this place about 1,000 times but never stopped in, came for Sunday family breakfast and we were in love!
For a mid Sunday morning the wait wasn’t bad — though keep in mind they won’t seat you until your entire party is present…
Service was okay but the food is the best part (obviously). I had a veggie omelet, they give you the choice of cheese (Swiss, cheddar or Gouda) so, so, so good. The veggies taste fresh and the cheese is mixed in and not just plopped on top like other places — not to be mentioned.
With that it even comes with a short stack of pancakes which taste just as great.
Everyone loved their meals and for a family of 6 our bill was under $ 79.
We’ll be back :)

Before the Original Pancake House on Charleston and Decatur burned to the ground, my husband and I would often stop in for breakfast. At one time, there were several OPH’s around the Valley. Now there are only two. And while this one is pretty far from our house, it’s not as far as the one in Primm. And it was worth the drive to get one of my favorite breakfast dishes ever: Eggs Michael.
We both love Eggs Michael, so that’s what we both ordered. It’s basically Eggs Benedict, but swap in sausage instead of Canadian bacon and mushroom gravy instead of Hollandaise sauce. And, oh, that gravy! Creamy with a slight hint of sherry. It’s so good that we always ask for an extra bowl on the side. This time, they just poured a double batch over each of our orders. Still love that gravy, but for some reason the mushrooms seemed a little slimy. Not sure if they were canned or just overcooked, but that’s the only reason I can’t give this dish five stars.
Our server was super friendly but a little slow on the drink refills. And, as I said, it was a bit of a drive for breakfast. But for special occasions (it was my birthday) or for those times when I need to get my Eggs Michael fix, it’s good to know there’s still an OPH here in Las Vegas.

Food = amazing.
Servers and server assistance = amazing.
Hosts and Cashiers = not good. Since the process is to check out and pay the cashiers, they leave a lasting impression on our experience. And the hosts and cashiers were not very friendly. Quite actually ruined the experience.
But as far as food, amazing. Best potato pancakes and strawberry pancakes of life! gondo

As always the constant one… ever since we ate at this restaurant back in L.A. it is our family favorite
Eggs Benedict with my sourdough pancakes my go to… also Dutch baby pancakes Awesome!!!
Service is always attentive

If it’s not yet obvious, breakfast is my favorite meal. Also my favorite meal to eat out. That being said, I love OHOP. They make these baked omelets that are incredible. Fluffy, cheesy and amazing. Pair that with a stack of yeasty buckwheat pancakes and I’m a happy boy.
I eat alone a lot (unless you consider a book dining company) and this location even has a booth for one. Good way to skip Sunday morning crowds when I head out solo.
Food arrived piping hot and looking delicious. Cup of coffee already in my belly. What more could I need?

The German pancake is great, it’s a very light tasting meal, I recommend giving it a shot. You combine butter powder suger and lemon juice inside the pancake bowl.
Or
The omelets are yummy but take awhile to cook because of the size. Unlike other places that fold the egg in half. There’s is the size of a plate.
The location on flamingo and fort apache is very clean. The booths aren’t broken down so here’s plenty of cushion.

Original Pancake House used to be my favorite breakfast spot. Ever since my go-​to Original Pancake House location by Decatur and Charleston got destroyed by a fire, I have been visiting this location. The quality of their food is going down and I am disappointed with how inconsistent they have been.
AMBIANCE
If you were lucky enough to have visited the other location on Decatur before it got destroyed, you know how great the ambiance was. It was much spacious and multiple windows that brought all the sunlight in made it a perfect spot to enjoy your warm and fluffy pancakes.
This location is complete opposite. It is crowded and super loud. I feel like there’s too many people in there… not enough oxygen. I feel sick and overwhelmed when I’m here.
SERVICE
Typically quick and friendly. There is one server named Jesse who is my absolute favorite server. He has the best smile that is brighter than a sunshine and I always feel welcomed there whenever I see him.
FOOD
It has definitely gone downhill. My usual is there chocolate crêpe. It’s a crêpe with chocolate cream inside, topped with chocolate sauce, fresh whipped cream and fruits which changes with season. It’s usually strawberry because they stock so much of strawberry but I’ve gotten bananas few times.
I noticed this place is very inconsistent. Sometimes my chocolate crêpe comes out perfect as it could be, at times it is soggy like it was drenched in water. On my recent visit, it was cold and dry. Please, Original Pancake House, get it together.
My family always gets their pancake and they claim the pancake here has gotten dry and not as good as it used to be. Disappointment is real.
CONCLUSION
They do have rushes but usually quick to get you to a table. Food has gone downhill but reasonable price and attentive servers. I recommend Jamms Restaurant over this place.

This place was good that we came here twice during my stay in Las Vegas. Both times the food was fabulous. The portions are quite sizable so my friend and I split an omelet (Denver and added mushrooms) and we got the Swedish pancakes which are like crepes.
The omelet is so fluffy and delicious and the ingredients just melted in your mouth. Perhaps the best omelet I’ve ever had. One morning we also got the banana pancakes but they weren’t as good as the Swedish ones and I would only get those from this point on.
The service was wonderful and we didn’t wait to be seated either time. Definitely worth the drive. I will be back here on my next Vegas trip for sure.

I am the omelet queen. Just ask my husband or any houseguest who has ever graced our doorstep. I make the meanest omelets just this side of heaven.
This place does it better.
Their baked omelets rock on so many levels that my drumsticks caught fire. (ok, I guess that only makes sense if you know I play the drums, my husband laughed until he snorted) The Irish is my favorite (says the ginger) — their corned beef is incredible.
Best of show: Fresh squeezed grapefruit juice. Pulpy, wonderful yumminess. So sweet that it makes oranges blush. They have fresh squeezed orange juice, too. Haven’t tried it, but I’m sure it, too, embarrasses a lesser citrus.
Pancakes come with everything you order. I’ve never made it to the pancake course — even though they do look amazing. I pack them up and donate them to someone more gluten tolerant. Typically, the benefactors eat them like cookies right from the box, foregoing butter, syrup, or utensils, so they must be good.
I did try the potato pancakes this last round. Light and crispy, they’re served with fresh, chunky apple sauce and sour cream. Uh-​may-​zing. I could hurt myself on these.
I have found the service efficient and friendly, whether we’re the only customers or the place is hopping. Food is served quickly and piping hot. The portions are more than generous. Coffee flows freely, as it should. Lots of real cream.
The restaurant itself is immaculate and quantly decorated. Easy parking, too!

This place is becoming my favorite breakfast place. I was never a brekkie enthusiast but each visit has brought new discoveries to me. The Dutch baby is an eggy pancake batter, but with the powdered sugar and squeeze of lemon, the contrast between the sweet and sour is unbelievably good.
More notably, I enjoyed potato pancakes for the first time. After spreading the sour cream and apple sauce on top, I couldn’t believe how this tasted perfect in my mouth. Once again, the contrast between the sour and sweet was an explosion of flavor. Thanks OPH, you’ve opened my eyes to brekkie heaven.

This place wasn’t how I remembered it. Before I moved to Vegas, I came here and was blown away by their portions and German style breakfasts. I came back recently, and I was a bit disappointed.
The wait was 20 minutes. Not terrible… this is a very popular place. One of their locations in Vegas closed a couple years ago, so I can imagine they’ve dealt with the overflow traffic from that.
I ordered the Fresh Vegetarian Omelette with egg whites and light on the cheese and hash browns instead of pancakes. I despise pancakes. The omelettes take a very long time to make (about 20 minutes) since they are baked in an oven. It is very nice that they state this on the menu.
We waited about 20 minutes for our orders, which isn’t anything out of the ordinary for this place. The food came out piping hot. Sadly, I was super dissapointed with the omelette. It lacked flavor and I was forced to douse it in salt and ketchup. Additionally, it was incredibly fluffy, so although it looked GIGANTIC, it wasn’t at all filling. Also, since I asked for light cheese, the cheese was all in one clump only on one side of the omelette. inside of it. So, I had an entire omelette with no cheese, and then about 4 giant bites of cheese.
The hash browns were not hash browns at all. They were potatoes. I don’t remember seeing this on the menu, but it certainly wasn’t explained. I’m sure they were «German potatoes,» but that wasn’t what I wanted.
I will come back here to give this place another chance, but probably not anytime soon.

Always on the the lookout for some good breaky break food, the opportunity to go go OPH came aboot. After coming here, this place has exceeded my expectations, and now there is another very good place for me to go for my breakfast needs.
I’ve been to other Original Pancake House’s in the past. Some items I really didn’t like. Others, I thought were pretty good. On my most recent trip, I do believe in saying that, overall, this place makes some pretty good food for the price point.
A few years ago, I went to a different OPH and ordered their signature item, the baked apple pancake. Honestly, while the presentation of the beast was truly amazing, the taste just didn’t do it for me. It’s not that it tasted bad in any way, but after a few bites, I was done. It was too rich and heavy for my taste buds. I then went to another one and tried their (non-​baked) german potato pancakes, and I enjoyed the crispiness of the outer edges of the pancake, and the soft middle. The sour cream and applesauce really heightened the flavor, and it was something I liked.
Now, here is shot #3. This time I ordered the Eggs Michael, because i’m Michael, and I like eggs. This was basically an eggs benedict, but with a sherry mornay sauce instead of the hollandaise, and sausage instead of the ham/​bacon. The eggs were poached perfectly, the sherry mornay was nicely made, and the sausage was flavorful. I did think the english muffin was a bit tough, but not that bad. It came with a side of the german potato pancakes that I liked.
I also ordered blueberry pancakes. I’m not a big fan of regular pancakes except for Dupar’s, but I wanted to give it a shot. The blueberries complimented the soft, delicate pancake wonderfully, and the side of blueberries to put on top of the pancake was a nice touch. The pancake was light, soft, not tough or chewy, and it wasn’t too sweet. This is probably my second favorite pancake after Dupar’s.
I would definitely come here again. I think the prices are right on the money, and the quality is pretty good. I’m not a fan of their baked pancakes because they are just too much for me, but i’ll happily try any of their other items.
