Running errands around the area and started feeling a little hungry, so I thought... wow, I haven't been to Denny's in forever. When I pulled up and saw people standing outside, I was already preparing myself for a long wait. Surprisingly, the hostess said only 10-15 minutes. Not bad at all for a busy day. I tried the Bourbon Chicken Skillet first, and the sauce was sweeter than I expected. I can see how some people would love it, but personally it wasn't really my thing. The Crazy Spicy Skillet though? So good. The chorizo was cooked perfectly, the potatoes dipped in melted cheese were super satisfying, and the thinly sliced chicken had just the right amount of spice and flavor. Definitely the winner for me. read more

Make sure plates are clean before the next order is set on the plate... when Denny's replied they directed me to a company web upload that didn't work .. so clearly they do not care read more

This might be the worst Denny's I have ever been to. Its too warm inside. We ordered 2 build your own grand slams . The bacon was hard stiff and not much more than room temperature . We ordered the hashbrowns well done, and not only were they not well done they were only cooked on one side they didn't even flip them over. The eggs were OK The pancakes were I guess old they weren't very hot about as hot as the bacon and way too firm and use a knife to cut them . In the sourdough toast was barely more than bread. Looks like it was in the toaster for maybe 10 seconds or so. read more

Ok... we know Dennys... is just a late night joint we used to go when everything was closed when we were in college or as young adults. Me and my wife were craving something after we put the kiddos to bed and I thought it would be fun to get something from Denny's as a throw back! All I can say is... I went to go order a pick up and my mansss SAL, gave me the best service ever in any dennys or honestly better than most high end restaurants! Made my night and the food was amazing! Shout out to Sal, ill be coming back just cause of him! read more

3 out of 5 times long long wait for bad food. Very poor management. Trainees and servers left alone when behind. Probanly only stays in busdiness because of amusements and out if towners. Ho to Kenos. Great food and decent proces. We waited 40 minutes.on 7/2 and walked out read more

What a huge disappointment! I come here all the time because I live just a second away... I ordered a well-done steak, vegetables, and potatoes! To start, they served me coffee--it was ice cold! Then they brought out the broccoli and potatoes... they sat on the table for 10-15 minutes... I ordered the steak well-done, but when I cut into it, it was raw and bloody! I was so annoyed I didn't even want to taste anything else--except the coffee read more

Came in on Saturday around 11am and the placed was packed. Got seated 5 minutes after walking in. Got the super grand slam for $10 with an additional surcharge of 50cents for the on going egg shortage at this time. Staff was friendly, but the first 30 minutes while dining in the AC seemed off and it was quite stuffy. Near the end of our meal the AC eventually got turned on or it was dropped lower. Overall experience was okay, good portion of food for 10bucks. read more

My husband and I came in because we had stoped at norms in Downey we waited 15-20 min and no one approached us so we walked out. We still were hungry so we stopped at Denny's on our way home and right away the vibe was different upon entering Clean and bright. Sal came to the table and greeted us with a friendly smile and made sure we got started on drinks while we chose what to eat. Sal was so kind with us and made sure our large order came out perfect ! Thank you Sal for showing Norms how it's done!!! read more

A group of five of us went tonight and basically walked out after we got multiple apologies for the wait for everything - from being seated, taking our order, getting beverages, etc. We weren't the only table getting apologies either. I wouldn't recommend this Denny's because others have also shared similar experiences here on Yelp. read more

We had amazing service from Sal tonight. Always made sure our drinks were filled and that we were taken care of. Best Denny's experience by far. read more

So this visit started off with a sweet woman greeting and seating us. We waited about 15 minutes before anyone acknowledged us. That same sweet woman who I would find out was Maribel H and it was her first day, she saw we had no drinks, menus still laying on the table and sitting there as wait staff after wait staff walked by us. She grabbed a tablet and took our order the best she could, she was attentive and a pleasure to talk to. If it wasn't for her I would be trying to give negative stars. A team is only as good as their leadership and it was missing hence the 3 stars. Yet with Maribel H, you are lucky to have someone that was observant and stepped in. I saw what I believe to me management asking who had our table and no one would own it. It all worked out but do better and know Maribel H is going to be a great part of your team. read more

Denny's has been a long-standing establishment for years and can satisfy late-night comfort food cravings. Most locations offer familiar, consistent food and service, so you'll know what to expect no matter where you go. FOOD: The extensive menu includes a considerable breakfast section, burgers, melts, salads, desserts, and more. I mostly gravitate to the all-day breakfast menu. Items on the menu can be hit or miss, but a few of my favorites are the Build-Your-Own Grand Slam, Moons Over My Hammy®, Country Fried Steak, and Signature Breakfast options. There have been a few hit-and-misses on the food; for example, the French Toast disappointed me the last time I ordered it. I can't remember the last time I ordered a Burger or Melt, but Seasonal items are also available and constantly changing. SERVICE: The service has been suitable for the most part. Sometimes, there isn't enough staff, but the ones who helped us have been kind and attentive. Food comes out promptly, and there has been a short wait time from my experience. AMBIANCE: Denny's has a classic diner vibe, with plenty of tables and booths but no counter seating at this location. The dining area can also accommodate large parties. Denny's also has that diner smell, which is hard to explain, but you can get a whiff of different foods and scents. The decor and mood are like a time machine to a simpler time. IYKYK. The 24/7 opening is a big plus. However, it's worth noting that Denny's has closed early on rare occasions, which can be disappointing when only a few choices are open late night. Denny's is a sold 3.5 Stars. read more

Worst experience I've ever had at a Dennys in my life. Messed up my order multiple times, Our waiter didn't come by to check on us once and to top it all off The Manager was really rude when I came to her with all this, After my food being wrong for the 2nd time I asked if we can just take it off and she said "they're already making it so" my whole party was done eating by the time my food arrived. Wasn't even offered a discount or anything. read more

Just went here for late night snack with 3 other people. We got sat and literally for 30 mins acknowledgment. No "a waiter will be right with you" no service whatsoever. We understand they could have been busy with a late rush or understaffed, but at least a quick check in could have been reasonable. But we didn't get anything. We walked out and decided to leave. Wouldn't recommend this place for late night munchies (btw it was 11:30 pm when we came in) read more

Our server Lizbeth was such a sweetheart and took care of me and my parents. She suggested a meal and we loved it, thank you Liz !

This is our local Denny's and we love it! Most of the waiters are really friendly and efficient. I will say they can get pretty busy and at times do not have enough servers. The food is good. Your typical American breakfast, and I've never received my food cold. This is a nice place for the family and they've recently remodeled which makes the place look nicer. I'd recommend this location! read more

We went to Denny's for breakfast and we were seated almost immediately. We waited for more than 20 minutes and nobody approached us to take our order so we had to walk out. read more

Hope you're not in a hurry! It was almost half full when we arrived. It took almost ten minutes for someone to come to the front desk and tell us where to sit. Meanwhile two tables of people lined up behind us to pay their bills. One of them reported that their bill was never brought to them, and eventually left since they never did receive a bill. Once seated, we waited a half hour for someone to take our order or bring us water. They never came. But we did hear a waiter explain to the next table that they didn't have much of the stuff that was listed on the menu. We left since it was obvious that they didn't want our business. It might be a good place to come if you just want to sit down and aren't interested in eating. read more

Nursing a migraine and decided since I'm gonna. I was up all night in pain, so why not get some grub? Sadly, I regretted this decision afterwards. The food was mediocre. It's Denny's though- so what did I except really. But my options were limited at 3am in the morning. I ordered the All-American Slam breakfast with no meat. So, it came with eggs (I added cheese and paid extra for this), hashbrowns (I added cheese and paid extra for this), and the double blueberry pancakes. The hashbrowns were OVERCOOKED. And they threw the cheese on top to cover up the burnt part. The eggs were fine. And the toppings on the pancakes were not fresh. The bananas were mooshy and the strawberries were not ripe. I think I was most upset about the hashbrowns. I love hashbrowns and these were inedible. And the toppings on the pancakes, I just pushed off. The mozzarella sticks were good, but they forgot the ranch dipping sauces I ordered. Overall, half of my food was messed up or not edible. read more
