I can admit when I have the wrong impression. Usually, I am not a fan of any chain restaurants & I rarely seek them out. Also, the local Denny's here is in a bit of a difficult location, depending on which way you are going. Today I had an early appointment for fasting blood work and I was famished afterwards. Denny's was on my way home & I was headed in the right direction to pull in. What a pleasant surprise. A woman behind the counter called out a friendly greeting to each person who walked in. The server who waited on my was fabulous. She kept checking on me & refilling my coffee. She even offered to give me a cup of coffee to go. I ordered the breakfast burrito, which was HUGE. The fact that the hash browns are inside it made it unusual, and very tasty. This was the friendliest team of people I have encountered for a long time. Kudos to Denny's! read more

April did an amazing job!! we love her will literally come back just for her she's the best

If you offer delivery how about actually deliver the food instead of marking it as delivered WHEN IT WASN'T! As of 0940 there has been no delivery. Jane refunded my money. All is copacetic read more

Bacon Avocado burger was delicious and the lady who served us was nice to help us out. The only problem was that the fries didnt have that much salt in it. Yet the fries were still crispy and good. read more

Verdict: Deon was a great server and I had an All American Slam in front of me 5 minutes after ordering. One of the best experiences I have had at a Dennys and I have been going to them for decades! I ended up here after walking out of First Watch 0.3 miles away after being ignored by the servers. Dennys has much better service! Promote Deon! read more

Generally, OK, but the prices seemed high, compared to my recent visits to comparable places like Bob Evans. Six of us were there at noon on a Sunday, obviously peak time. We were seated promptly & got good service. However, the place loses one star because of the terrible quality of the food I ordered. Wanting something different, I ordered the brisket skillet: chunks of brisket over mac & cheese, with fried onion rings. Two of us got this, and the brisket looked like little chunks of charcoal. We asked about it and were told that the restaurant gets the brisket pre-cooked, and it "gets that way" in the process of being recooked/reheated before service. I'm not buying it! I love smoked brisket, and at a real BBQ joint will sometimes order "burnt ends." These little chunks were done beyond that. Crunchy all the way through. Not bad enough to keep me away from the place in the future, but I'll certainly never order brisket there again. Maybe Mission BBQ has me spoiled. read more

My husband and I went to this location for breakfast this morning. We had a very good experience. We were seated promptly and our waitress was very attentive. She was friendly and very proactive. Our food was prepared and delivered to the table in record time. My husband ordered the Lumberjack breakfast and I ordered the crepe breakfast. Both meals were good with large portions. The restaurant was clean and they observed all the COVID protocols to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. read more

Pretty good for Denny's... I'd almost lost hope in the chain. Great service and the food was actually very good!

Had a wonderful dining experience! Me and my fiancé had Brisk it all melt & pot roast bowl and HOLY MOLY, it was phenomenal. And topped it off with an Oreo shake. Not only was the food delicious, the cook was on point and our service whose name was Deonte D. was tentative, friendly, etc. Overall clean place, comfortable. First time I've been to a Denny's in years and glad I came to this one (I am an out of towner too). Keep it up read more

Service is horrible, for a business that has a hiring sign out front I can see why when you stand at the register for about 10 minutes and not a person in the store can say hello or we will be right with you it just all walk around carrying on. read more

We like this Denny's, it's fast and clean and in a convenient place! We usually go on a Sunday Morning for breakfast and park in Pier One so we dont have to drive all the way around. It's a typical Denny's otherwise, but I have always enjoyed the service when we go. I do recommend this location! read more

The first time we went here, it was wonderful. Everything was good. The second time, not so good. The breakfast was not bad tasting at all. As a matter of fact, it was good. However, it was room temperature apparently sat in the window too long. Our waitress was third world and pretty much indifferent. Basically, a very lack luster experience. I have had hotter breakfast at Mcdonalds. read more

One of the ladies was pouring the ice with her hands she had no gloves on and also one guy with curly hair his name is sam he had dirty gloves and and then went into the kitchen and cooked food and there were flies around and on my food but there was one server his name is Jonathan R. He was a good server he was very nice and quick the food was okay but all of that wasn't read more

We usually bypass the table line and grab a seat at the bar, especially on weekends. We always get fast service with the great Denny's values. The coffee is a little on the weak side, but the servers keep it flowing. Our meals come out quick and hot. I'm partial to the Grand Slamwich, which is a good combo meal, and they get it spot on every time here. The servers are quick and attentive, but still are friendly. Only downside is the entrance on 450 makes getting into the parking lot a bit tough from the traffic, and you can only enter from one direction. This also makes a great meetup point for those of us who ride in groups. read more

We came here on Christmas Eve and it was packed but the wait wasn't too terrible. The staff was very friendly and gave frequent updates while we waited. Once we were sat, the service was quick enough to make up for the wait. We had the mozzarella sticks and onion rings appetizer which was delicious! I had a veggie burger and mashed potatoes which were fine. The burger was nice and crispy, much better than expected. The mashed potatoes were a little bit too thin. Nothing to write home about but considering the price and quick service (and my own expectations) I was pleasantly surprised. This is a great Denny's. read more

This places 3 disorganised when it comes to waiting list. There were a lot of people of course following social distance rules but the restaurant had no way of knowing who was in order except for asking the customers. This pretty much set the tone for me but on a good note The waitress was outstanding in bringing us our food and drinks. The management needs to look at Organising a waiting list for customers to know when their place in line is read more

Truly a great dining experience! My wife and i were in the neighborhood and decided to stop for brunch. The wait was minimal and the host constantly acknowledged us and kept us updated. Our server was Christine who was friendly and amazingly efficient! Wife got the crapes and 3 eggs and hash browns. I ordered the lumber jack Grand Slam. Everything was quickly served and absolutely delicious. Christine our amazing server refilled our coffee and checked on us regularly. Staff eefficiently works together like a a team. Will definitely come again!!! read more

My family went to Denny's restaurant in Annapolis, Maryland on Thursday, January 26, 2023, to celebrate our granddaughter's 17th birthday and have dinner. The food, and its presentation, was excellent as to flavor and quality. The server was friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us great service. The cost was very reasonable and we received a discount with our AARP Card. We definitely recommend this Denny's and we intend to go back whenever we can. Gary & Joyce K. read more

I love Dennys. It's always busy but always clean.and the staff are super kind and helpful I've been coming for years but recently the new General Manager actually does table visits and ensures the staff are not overwhelmed and the customers are taken care of. I recommend Dennys for breakfast lunch and dinner. read more

Denny's on West Street We ate there this morning . The food was horrible and after eating the food I spent my rest of the day in the bathroom. I would NOT recommend this place . I can't even give this place a rating . But had to or it would not allow me to post . read more

1st place Me and my brothers visited to have some breakfast after our long flight. Fast service and coffee was fresh and food was good. Only problem with this place is small driveway in that we missed twice. We wind up parking in next lot over and I think the waitrices thought we were going to dash-Lol read more

This is one of my favorite Denny's! Great customer service phenomenal team always going above and beyond for the customers :) Big shout out to Mr. Darryll for always making us feel at home when we come in . Not only do they have great customer service but it's a great deal I can feed the entire family delicious food on a budget. Love love love your new chicken Parmesan and steak bowls read more

Fast and friendly delivery, thanks Yusuf! Food was hot and exactly as ordered, it was a relief after being on the road all night read more

This morning, there were a lot of customers waiting to be seated. The hostess was so kind. In a situation were one could become overwhelmed, she was so polite and so gentle with the older customers. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly and had a great sense of humor. Our food was prepared perfectly. read more

@DennysDiner I see now why this Denny's location has such a low rating... Took 15 min to get seated... And the hostess sat a couple down that came in after me. Waitress was so eager to leave my table without even making sure I was done ordering! #1star 2095 west St. Parole, MD read more

Brought the fam here for early morning breakfast. My daughter had hair hanging off her toast. It was then that i noticed the lady in the kitchen had her long hair flowing unrestrained. I inquired our server and was told that hair nets and such are not required. I told her MD emplyee health code law DOES reqire hair to be retrained. ( COMAR 10.15.03.14) she disagreed with me and said she has been here for 20 some years and it has never been required. So if you dont mind the possibility of being served hairy food, enjoy this establishment. Because of the attitude, We wont be returning. Update; it is my understanding the situation has been corrected and the employees are now aware their hair must be restrained. If this is true the hairy food issue should be resolved. Bon Appetit... read more

You'd think that a restaurant would want customers to be able to sit down so they can order and pay them for something. If not the franchise owner or manager, then at LEAST the server so they can get tipped for something. But no...the entire staff bumbled about the restaurant as far from the growing crowd at the host stand as possible while the number of empty, unbussed tables visibly increased. I mean, what's 8 minutes of our time standing in the doorway, neither greeted nor acknowledged, really worth after all? It's not like Double T Diner is right across the street...oh wait. Yes it is. Which is where I'll remember to go in the first place next time. read more

It's a Dennys, so if you are familiar with the chain, you know what to expect. This place is great, though, if you have a noisy gang and want to eat out but don't want to bother everyone else's dinner. With the TVs and the general bustle, this place always seems to have a lot going on, but in a well-lit environment without the whole drunken bar scene. Two MAJOR drawbacks for this location: it's impossible to get into the parking lot unless you are coming from the direction of the mall - and there are no good U-turns in the other direction. Total pain - add 10 minutes to your travel time. Don't ever order anything not on the 'regular' menu - pancakes, eggs, bacon, hashbrowns - check, check, check - consistently good and cooked right. Dinner entrees, seasonal items, anything with avocado - forget it. It will likely add 20 minutes to your wait and it could be sketchy. read more

Save your sanity and go somewhere else. While the food is decent and the servers (some) are good, the overall experience is shameful. I've gone there multiple times on a Saturday or Sunday morning for a quick breakfast, this time was the absolute last. The hostesses are the worst I've ever seen, while this includes the manager because she acts as the host too. Watching the hostess trying to seat customers is like watching "The 3 Stooges". Many tables are open while customers wait to be seated and the hostess walks (slowly) around in circles just trying to figure out what to do. Only thing that's gets you through the experience is the pure comical relief watching people trying to do their job. This place needs new management, needs to fire half their staff and put a "Now Hiring" sign out front. I'd like to note, that not all of the servers are bad, most of them run around circles around their coworkers. But safe yourself the time and go to Double T diner. read more

this is the worst dennys ever. I sat down and the waitress wouldn't take my order. Every 5 minutes she said "be right there". After 30 minutes I just left. She only had like 4 tables and was freaking out at everybody. The manager was right there but instead of taking my order she just walked around doing nothing pretending to wipe tables. Worst service I've ever seen...even on TV. Felt bad for the kitchen staff who seemed okay read more

Stopped here for breakfast with my husband. Friendly staff, great server - professional and personable. I had the 9 grain pancakes and they were fantastic!!!! Like a warm oatmeal cookie. With syrup. A really wonderful breakfast - ordered 2, took half home for the next day - just as good. I am going to try and make these at home, but will be back for the real deal. read more

I wish I had looked at the yelp rating before we came here. The host was nice. The waitress and food left something to be desired. I am not looking for amazing food at a Dennys. BUT if I order my hash browns extra crispy and they aren't even cooked through... ick! I know who to blame if I do get sick today. We had to ask for coffee and the waitress wasn't very attentive. She also brought the dirty creamer dish over with it resting inside the coffee mug. Gross. read more

Once you get in here and get a table, everything is smooth sailing. We had a great server who was very attentive and friendly. The food was the consistent, hearty fair I look to from Denny's and I had to restrain myself from some attractive items I saw arriving at other tables due to a new commitment to eat more healthy. My friend and I were starving and I was happy to find that although very busy, the kitchen was on the ball and our orders came out quickly. Docking from significant stars here though as this is singularly the most irritating business I've ever tried to get into. Its impossibly located and we had to drive way out of our way and then cut across the Pier One parking lot because of the divided road with no turn access from the opposite side of the street. I have an SUV and actually considered driving across a small field to get there when our second attempt to figure out how to access the parking lot failed. Lots of folks waiting around for a table at noon on a Sunday, so if you're heading there for your post prayers pancakes, be prepared to mill around in the far to small waiting area. read more

While my car was in the shop, my friend and I dined here for breakfast. I had what I always have at Denny's...Moons Over My Hammy. However, I was surprised that Denny's now offers the half option. Portion control is a good thing, right? Yes, it is. "Yes, I'll have the half Just double up on the hashbrown" Almost there, Larry. Almost. This Denny's was typical as with the others. However, something must've happened to one of their front windows and was now boarded up. Usually, that would have been ignored except we were seated right in front of that boarded area. Almost, Denny's. Almost. read more

I hate being ignored. After waiting 15 minutes after I was sat, no one even came over and took my drink order. It wasn't crowded and there was enough wait staff. So pathetic. read more

I came here on a Friday around noon, it wasn't that busy and I was able to get a table quickly. Our waitress was very kind and took our order quickly and served drinks immediately. I ordered the Grand Slam for 6 dollars a great price. Our food came within 5 minutes I was surprised since I'm used to a 10-12 minutes wait. The food was great, I loved how they cooked my eggs and the pancakes and hash browns were good as well. I'm not sure how this compares on the weekend but I received great and quick service and I will come back again when I'm in the area :) read more

Good afternoon, visited this Denny's on 12/25/20, Christmas Day. Had not visited a Denny's restaurant in a very long time. All previous experience in Denny's have been good. This one was definitely the opposite. We walked in by the hostess table but no one was there. I imagine because it was Christmas Day they might of being short handed. We waited 15 minutes without no one saying anything. I approached someone at the pick up table ( who will turn out to be the Manager later). I asked if someone could sit us and he stated one of the waitress would sit ( only 2 working the floor). I asked one of the waitress that walked by " do we need to turn into a pumpkin before we get seated". She came back " as soon as I clean off a table we will seat you". 15 more minutes passed by. At this point I elected to walk out. As I was waking the same waitress I had encounter commented under her breath in smart way " Bye". I asked for her name and she said "it is right over and my manager is there". I spoke to the Manager Darrell ( gentleman from first interaction). He was a nice guy and very apologetic. He offered a table but my blood pressure had already risen and we decided to leave. Bottom line service could have been 100 percent better. Plus waitress with that type of attitude do not need to work there or anywhere else for that matter. I am a small business owner and my customers are my priority and life line. read more
