6. IHOP
IHOP is famous for its breakfast but in 2024, the brand has been letting customers down with a lot of unpleasant conditions. 4The iconic pancakes which were once fluffy and delicious, now taste more bland and inconsistent.
Cleanliness has become a major issue, with many locations being reported for dirty tables, unclean restrooms, and an overall lack of hygiene. Unfortunately, the once beloved breakfast spot has struggled to maintain its standards, leaving many customers disappointed and searching for better options.
7. Chili’s
Are you a fan of Chili’s? Well, you should reconsider your options. Chili’s is a popular chain, known for its Tex-Mex cuisine, but it has faced a slew of complaints in 2024. Diners have reported receiving cold food, long wait times, and a lack of attention to detail.
Appetizers like nachos and wings frequently arrive soggy and underseasoned, while main courses such as fajitas and burgers lack the zest that Chili’s was once known for. So, if you are looking for good dining experiences in 2025, you should definitely avoid this chain.

Where are the nations food inspectors.
From these ratings, we know that most shouldn’t or wouldn’t pass any of them.
Most of this trickles down from management to the employees. You need better hiring, and not just filling positions
After avoiding Golden Corral, for almost 3 years, we decided to give it another try. We were pleasantly surprised! The food quality has improved immensely, the staff was helpful and friendly, and no cleanliness problems were noted. The one unpleasant shock, was the price! We are both seniors, and we’re charged $40.00! We may go back, but it will have to be for a Very Special occasion! Thank God most of that was covered by a $25.00 Christmas Gift Certificate!
Part of the problem is people get used to food prices, and expect the prices to remain the same. Unfortunately, with the rampant inflation we are experiencing, the restaurants have to either raise prices or sacrifice quality. Since they will lose more business because of prices. They sacrifice quality, and slowly deteriorate.
ordered flowers, balloons and candy for my granddaughter’s birthday for same day delivery which was guaranteed. Order did not arrive. I called and they refunded my money and said they would redeliver the order because I was so disappointed and embarrassed. Even after being advised that they would redeliver for free they still never were delivered. I would not use 1800 Flowers ever again as this experience was so bad.

I love our Red Lobster and our olive Garden
They are both good food and really good servers…..
I live in Durham NC, and the IHOP near me is great. Their food is very tasty, they make the best coffee, and the service is very good 👍. I don’t have any problems going here. On Sunday they always have a big crowd. You sometimes have to wait for a table, because it’s a popular place to eat. I’m just wondering what States those restaurants were in that got those complaints? Even Waffle House down here is very good. Great prices, and excellent coffee. Another very busy place.
Lack of focus of employees, laziness, and overall poor management are at the foundations of a good restaurant going downward. Owners are typically more interested in profits when they become financially pressed, therefore start cutting elements in the business that will save them money. Many restaurants do return to their prior greatnesses after the owners realize that their business is trending downward, and requiring a change.
This artilcle is a very good warning to me. Thanks
