Giant portions of mediocre food is not a great value! This place pours on the butter, fat, and size in every and anything that you order, but the taste is terrible and the quality is totally lacking. Big does not equal great! Find another place, go elsewhere and let these folks know that until their food tastes better, it's no... more

I visited Country Pancake House after several "word of mouth" recommendations. I reviewed several online sites giving information about the new restaurant before making my way to Lakewood Ranch. The day I visited (Tuesday) the parking was very accessible. The restaurant had a very nice "feel" and made a good impression. Painted murals give a nice touch to the contemporary... more

The Country Pancake House and Restaurant has something on the menu for everyone. I went with a party of 7 people on Sunday Morning. We asked the hostess how long the wait would be.She said that it would take us about 15 minutes. It took us 17 minutes to be exact, but never the less that when we where seated,... more

Came all the way from Iowa to eat here! Went one day and just had to go back the next. The food is great and the hospitality is even better! Something for everyone...from breakfast to dinner. They even bring chocolate cornbread for a starter. Can't be beat and very affordable. more

Contrary to the solitary review on this place I found the wait to be minimal, the service to be courteous and timely and the food was excellent and plentiful. The order was delivered as ordered the first time. Portions were very generous...maybe even enough to spit. Pancakes flowed over the plate and omelets were enourmous. Unless the food is cold... more

If all restaurants were rated solely on their opening week's performance, diners would miss out on some of the great restaurant finds in their area. Unlike the review posted the week of 1/20/08, I had a very positive experience and would recommend the restaurant. On 4/16/08, I joined ten (10) of my co-workers today for lunch. The server took our... more

This is a Florida version of a New Jersey Diner. The extensive menu is amazing. Almost everything my friends and I had here was exceptional. Can't be in a hurry and definitely avoid Saturday and Sunday mornings. Service may be a bit slow but unless you are in a hurry worth the wait. Portions are large and plan to take... more

About 5 days ago i went to this resutrant and they were great! yes, the food took a little longer to come out. but when it did, i had a HUGE portion of food and it was delicous! i had a leftover breakfast of french toast for 2 days! they used almost a whole loaf of bread it seemed! my... more

We have eaten at the Country Pancake House twice and loved both experiences. I can't believe the first bad review -- we had GREAT food, great service, and a great time. The first time we ate there was for dinner. It was a week after they opened, and yes, the meal did take a bit long to arrive, but oh... more
