Had to check the front door first. Yes, they were open. We were the only customers for half an hour. Never did get much attendance. This Denny's used to always have an excuse why they didn't have the nationally advertised "Slams" at the same price. Now they "get you" on the coffee although they do now have a $5.99 Slam. Quality of prep is up to about 90% of what you would expect from a Denny's. Breakfast for still came out to over $50. (Typically $30+ elsewhere)They killed this business with insufficient labor over the last several years. (Opinion) Even so, their scrambled eggs beat several of their more successful competitors even today. read more

I've been going to Denny's for 2 or 3 years now the waiters (judy, chris and angie) are always nice to my mom and I. They always have good food my favorite things to get are the mac & cheese skillet, bourbon chicken skillet and any of the omelets. read more

Clean, nice employees-I don't know why this place has such a low rating-if you have EVER been in a Denny's before- you know EXACTLY what to expect!! They do a great job here!! It's not gourmet food! But it's good!! I had the grand slam-and it was soooo much food! I had to bring the pancakes home! My friends had the crepe fest! And they loved it!! I tried a bite of the crepe- and it was delicious! I am going to get that next time! They had strawberry it had a cheesecake like filling and was perfect not overly sweet! The fresh strawberries were the perfect accompaniment!! read more

See all

This place was trash,they gave us a seat and a menu and just walked away and never came,we had been waiting for almost 20 mins and nobody came,we hadn't even order nothing they looked at us and just kept going about their day acted as if we were invisible,One waitress was throw stuff and slamming stuff very unhappy waitress. read more

The place is booty the servers are not the best and I smells like a nursing home if you want leather for food then go here but if you want better food Waffle House is better. Plus there is a giant dark hole in the boys bathroom stall but that is in all dennys don't go here pls Gordon Ramsey would not approve. read more

Always a delicious breakfast at Denny's never a disappointment I'm gonna have to try to lunch or dinner menu someday and leave a review on that read more

I was calling asking about the specials and then I asked what was the most expensive thing on the menu and she said I don't know and hung up on me read more

Worst restaurant an Englewood, the whole meal was undercooked. They barely had anything to drink. They were understaffed. I'll never go there again. read more

Love this store!! The staff are great!! Really friendly always a smile. Food is great, nothing is too much trouble. Plenty of space. Easy parking. Well worth a visit. We loved the food ! Tastes great !! read more

Not very good and OVERLY EXPENSIVE! $3.69 for a bad cup of coffee. You'd think with a $13 breakfast the damn coffee would be free.

If I could give zero stars, I would I used to frequent the Port Charlotte Dennys all the time when I arrived at the Dennys, there was a sign on the door that they were closed, and the whole store was packed up, which was odd to me because I just had breakfast there yesterday also a man and a heavier set woman that looked official out front smoking very unprofessional didnt even come over and say anything just stood there so I decided to try this Dennys it smelled horrible I stood there for a while before anyone came over to greet me I sat down and waited even longer got my food and it was cold I will be going elsewhere with my business read more

It took about 40 mins to get our breakfast nothing special (eggs, bacon, sausage and toast). The food was ok but the bacon was paper thin, the sausages were the size of a baby finger and the waitress for got my toast. The meal was not worth the cost of time and money. The place looks like it could use an upgrade or at least a good cleaning. read more

In addition to calling the health department, I thought I'd warn you fellow Yelpers about this horrifically bad restaurant -- Denny's on McCall Road (Rt 776 in Englewood) We arrived around 12:30 p.m.. No one came to seat us for some time as there were only two waitresses for the lunch shift and it was crowded. First, I want to say both waitress were doing a terrific job trying hard and working hard to service the too many tables they had to service. Despite the hardship, they were friendly, professional and helpful. Management may be the ones responsible for understaffing. There were three of us and upon unwrapping the silverware we found two forks encrusted with food and all three knives had food stains on them. I grabbed two other silverware setups from the open table behind us and only one fork and knife weren't somewhat useable. Again, the waitress was attentive in getting to us quickly to take our order. The 'food." Everying served us was cold. A breakfast of pancakes, eggs, sausage and, a biscuit I cold have use as a substitute for a hardball baseball. An order of mozzerella sticks was undercock and cold. An order of chicken strips was overcooked and the chicken tasted like fat, not chicken. Also, it was stringy as possible having been frozen, thawed and then refrozen and thawed. Not sure, but it tasted greasy chewy. A side "vegetable medley" looked like a soggy mass of something and had a rotten oil smell. These were not edible as the grease was dripping off each piece of yellow squash and the other veggies. To add insult to injury, the prices are ridiculous. I understand costs and prices have risen, but $14.49 for 2 eggs (cold and runny), 2 sausage (cold and hard), 2 pancakes (cold and undercooked - how do you undercook a pancake?) and that infamous rock-like biscuit is inappropriate to be polite. I will never eat there again, just based on the lack of care to keep the place clean. And this, most likely, was not an isolated incident as I saw a review here from July 2023 that noted the "greasy fork, knife, table, chair, salt shaker, ketchup bottle... Basically - this place NEEDS TO BE CLEANED... And, for G*D sakes, DO NOT USE THE RESTROOMS - UHG!!!!!" Those same exact conditions existed on our visit two days ago in November. read more

I would definitely dine in again,I had a lovely server Lisa she made the experience worth while.Very clean place,fairly priced and great service. read more

I was in a hurry and stopped for lunch, I was greeted and chose to sit at the bar. Service was very fast. I ordered the Cookie Dough Pancake breakfast plus an orange juice and it all arrived quickly. All of the food I was given tasted very good. However, I was a little surprised at the amount of icing smothering the pancakes, it was way too much. I mentioned this to the clerk when I paid and she noted it had been mentioned before, she would let the manager and chef know. I will return to this location. read more

The food is good and the wait staff is great but the hostess is very grouchy. We've been here 2 weeks in a row on Sunday after church and it's the same lady. She doesn't smile and she acts as if she doesn't like her job. No smile. Not a very warm welcome. I'm sure it's busy but kind of off-putting and not very welcoming. Update: the hostess was better today. I think she is under some stress. It was very busy and trouble finding help. I don't want to hurt her employment. She works very hard. read more

For some reason this time around my food was not that good. My burger was kinda cold and my cheese was not melted all the way. My seasoned fries were really good but it was disappointing eating my burger. My family ordered pickup and when we got home we saw the sides that we ordered and it was a kids portion, barely any side potatoes or hash browns. They also forgot to put in the pancakes that we made $2 more for. Very disappointing, food wasn't disgusting, but sad. I don't have any pictures because I was very hungry that day and forgot that I do these reviews now. Order: Build your Own Beyond Burger (Add mayo and Swiss cheese) and a side of Seasoned Fries (cost extra but better then regular fries) read more

I think this place has great food. Many of the waitresses are friendly. The difficulty comes in wanting what you want. "We don't do substitutions"... I asked why. I was told that if they gave me a substitution, then they'd have to do that for everyone... Um, that's my point... special orders do upset us.. lol I just wanted a waffle instead of two pancakes... less batter and easier to cook...Yvonne was my waitress read more

The interior is great, and even the food isn't half bad. I come here occasionally because it is the only place to eat that is open late and because I LOVE the oreo shakes. This is where the BUT comes in.... being this is the only dine in option without driving out of town to a different Dennys or location, me and my friends do spend a lot of money here. My main issue is consistency. I never know how I am going to be treated. Sometimes they are nice but most of the time it always seems like they are struggling or annoyed. This location has a hard time keeping staff, and there have been times where I tried to place an order over the phone and no one answered. So I would drive up there (expecting it to be busy) and there are only a few people inside and they are simply ignoring the phone. Or I see a bunch of staff outside smoking (which is a huge turnoff of appetite) I feel if they got consistent staff who were friendly this could be a flourishing place in the heart of englewood. There are days when the experience is good, but the fact that I have had so many badd experiences that its 50/50 when I go is disappointing. I hate leaving low reviews, but if this can help them change I am willing to write it. I care about the employees, and my dining experience. With a few changes in behavior and more staff I don't see why everyones experience both employees and visitors wouldn't improve. Wish you guys the best! Even with two stars I don't plan on stopping my business with you and getting more of those delicious shakes! read more

The owner of this Denny's in Englewood should be ashamed of himself. This is Florida and it had to be over 100 degrees inside. There has been no a/c for weeks. The waitresses were as professional as they could be. Slavica did a fabulous job as some customers were about to pass out. This is employee abuse, and no indication on the entrance that there is no a/c? The owner should be made to work in that restaurant until the a/c is fixed. My golden retriever service dog couldn't wait to get out of there. read more

short staffed, restrooms were disgusting, and hostess was very rude and apparently doesn't know how to hand stress. I get being short staffed, we're okay with having to wait but no need for yelling and attitude. read more

Just stopped at Denny's in Inglewood here and they are packed they are for cooks in the kitchen and they informed us an hour wait for food to come out of the kitchen I think they need new management and the food is not all that good there read more

This place is done. The cooks can't cook an egg to order and this is their idea of an appropriate serving of bacon. read more

Denny's - This is what was served. This is actually 2 pieces of "bacon". Englewood Denny's, come on, you can do better. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Englewood, Florida

Every time I went to this Denny's, the wait staff got worse. I went there the other day with a friend who just want to accompany me for breakfast, we were surprised that there's nothing less than $10 for her. She was 'forced' to order just something. Then she googled Denny's menu online and found out that they advertised value meals for $5.99, something that she could have been happy with. When we asked the waitress where this value meal selection is on the menu, she said it's a separate menu that we had to ask for. It's a blatantly deceptive policy to hide this from customers. That'll be the last time I'll go back to this Denny's or any Denny's. For their price I can have breakfast anywhere. read more

Place a pick up order and it was great! Hamburger and fries were cook just the way we ordered them. The price was very good and the food was good. Thank you read more

Never again. I had an omelette with ham, no toast or hash browns. My girl had an American Slam, no extras. Two coffees and waters It came out to $33 For Denny's?!?!? That's outrageous. I don't know if they're just gouging because it's in season but we'll be spending our money at the Country Hound from now on. read more

How some people can give this place a ONE STAR...is just unbelievable. I just returned from the most amazing BLUEBERRY PANCAKE BREAKFAST which included 2 Big BLUEBERRY PANCAKES, 2 EGGS (any way you like them) 1 BACON, 1 SAUSAGE, and GRITS or any kind of POTATOES that you want....all for a bargain price! How on earth can you beat that??? Service by DONNA was exceptional as well, very attentive even though she had other customers to take care of. Hostess leaves a lot to be desired, sooooo unfriendly! That's the only complaint I have, but food and service were outstanding!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! read more

My husband and I eat at the Englewood Denney's often. It is well lit and the food is fresh. We have never gotten a bad meal (6x+ a month) except once and it was immediately redone. The service is slow but worth the wait. They have trouble getting help. Prices have increased but so has everyone elses. read more

Great service.. waitress was very friendly and attentive! Everything was clean and I'd definitely go again!

Amazing as always only taking off a star because I requested no bananas on my pancakes but mistakes happen!

Horrible food, expensive for the bad quality. I dont remember the name of the sandwich I had, but the picture on the menu and the description made it sound pretty tasty - turkey, bacon, tomato and melted swiss cheese on toasted sourdough. I imagined a greasy, cheesy, melty piece of happiness. Hard to mess up, right? Well, the sandwich was tiny, there was a minimal bit of melted cheese stuck to the otherwise dry bread, one slice of tomato the size of a silver dollar, 2 or 3 super thin slices of processed turkey meat and two very small strips of bacon. The whole thing was not even lukewarm and had no flavor whatsoever. It looked like a sandwich a 5 year old would put together. The saving grace was that I got to pick fresh fruit as a side, and it came in a tall ice cream glass and was very good. No complaints about the service, but be warned: when entering the restaurant, there was a strong urine odor in the foyer, and inside there was a moldy smell that was so strong that I had to apply some perfume I found in my purse to my nose. Now you may wonder why I stayed: I was absolutely starving and had stopped at two restaurants that turned out to have 45 min waits. I was desperate, and this Denny's was the only place around that was nearly empty. That should have been my warning! No stars! read more

The service takes forever and is terrible. Portions are extremely tiny, and apparently at this Denny's location the customer is not always right & customer satisfaction is not important. My parents had each ordered the 'Senior' breakfast & each got served the tiniest most minute, stingy, small amount of eggs. The meals they each received wouldn't feed a small child. The waiter first used the excuse that my parents had ordered "the Senior meals" as if to imply that seniors don't get served much food on their plate whenever they order a senior meal at Denny's, then his next excuse was that the the type of hen eggs they use there are "extra small teeny tiny ones" so therefore what is put on your plate is a teeny tiny portion. After my parents had complained about the inadequate amount they were served the waiter took forever & eventually brought out only just one more lonely egg on a plate & put it in front of only my father, but didn't bring any more food at all to my Mother ---what the heck??!! My parents vowed they would never eat at this particular Denny's store again. My parents have eaten at many other Denny's locations all over the United States & have consistently been very satisfied, but this particular Denny's location in Englewood Florida was very poorly lacking & a big disappointment. read more

For a Denny's they are great. Come here every time Ford works on my car. The service has always been great. It's not four star food but great for a chain. I've been to done terrible Denny's this one is in the top 3. read more

Mediocre at best. Servers are not very attentive usually and it could be a bit cleaner.

I was disappointed this visit. I took my grandson in for breakfast. We were seated right away, there was no one in the seating area, just 2 gentlemen at the bar area. We sat there for around 5 minutes, an older couple came in and was seated 2 boots down from us and the waitress went right over to them to get their drink order, we still have not even been acknowledged. Another older couple came in and was seated right behind us and a different waitress came over and brought coffee and talked for a couple of minutes. We have still not even been acknowledged. I waited about 3 minutes and was about to get up and walk out the waitress was talking to the couple behind us and she stepped over to our table to finally take our order. My grandson got a kid's menu with no crayons. I understand these couples are regulars, I consider myself a regular as well, just not daily. The food was good but the service was a little less than desired. read more

As soon as you walk in you are hit in the face with the stench of MOLD. Looked up at the ceiling and sure enough - mold so thick a few of the ceiling tiles were literally fuzzy, right above the hostess station. That cannot be safe to breathe in. Get your act together Denny's, you should be ashamed! This place needs to be shut down until the mold situation is under control. read more

Went in there for mother's Day. Many tables were dirty with dirty dishes. Dirty bathroom and long lines. Left immediately.

Ok. It's Denny's expect to be disappointed ignored by wait staff and served institutional food reheated. This location is dirty Wait time 30 minutes during a rather slow Saturday morning No toast with skillet breakfast. Chunks of red skin potatoes were cold and hollow. Ordered bacon extra crispy and fat was still pale yellow and glistening so waitress microwaved it to inedible mass. Truly so bad it was comical. Go to any of the local independent joints in every shopping center to get a real home cooked affordable breakfast. Support local economy and get a meal you will enjoy. Denny's sucks! read more

Slow service. Typical Dennys food. But double charged me because of a mistake that the cashier made...mistakes happen. The manager assured me a I would get a credit on my CC. Still have not received two weeks later and now he is not responding to my emails. Had to dispute the charge with my CC company which is a PITA. I will never visit this place again. read more
