Horrible location. Dirty, rude staff, and always get the food orders wrong. Seen the cashier take money then go grab food without washing their hands. Touching the food people are eating not just the plates. read more

Came here for breakfast, very disappointed. First we were told it would be a wait for a table, someone walked in 5 mins after us and was immediately sat when he told them they had the same party size. Then me and my bestfriends food were both cold. Already waiting long enough to be sat and waited for our food, so when offered "hot eggs" I said no. When I think My food should have been comped off. Definitely will not be back here. read more

This Denny's is so dirty. The booth I sat at was disgusting food on the seats look like a dirty rag try to wipe them off table sticky set next to a window with dirt and dust all on the windowsill where my food would be. Went into the restroom and it smells so bad like sewer that I had to go out of the restroom and didn't use it. I know it's a older restaurant but it still could be clean read more

This is the worst Denny's experience I have ever had!! I ordered the T-bone steak Breakfast, it came with hash browns, eggs and toast. They messed up on the steak and the eggs! And I would say the service sucked, butt it wasn't that good! The steak was over done (asked for it to be med rare) the hash browns weren't browned and were just glopped on the plate, I asked for the eggs to be over easy, but they came crispy on the edges and over cooked. The server did not refresh my coffee once, and I had to ask any passing server for more coffee. The catsup bottle was empty and all I got out of it were farts. My daughters order was messed up also, but not as bad as mine. It was the worst quality food, presentation, and service that I've ever had at any Denny's or any place else for that matter! ....I spent $45.00 (for two) for a plate of feces! read more

I Went last night with a party of 8. Our waitress Naomi takes our drink order. Comes back with drinks, stands on one end of the table and tells us all to pass them down. instead of serving everyone individually. We had to pass each other the drinks. She takes our Food order, comes back with our order and stands at one end of the table and tells us all to pass it down. Here we go again passing each other our food. Unbelievable! Someone needs to tell Naomi that being a "waitress" means taking orders and serving people their order individually. Poor girl has a lot to learn. Well, we will never visit this Dennys again. read more

Great food on time warming welcome savannah a great host her and was delight to converse with she went above and beyond do not get rid of her that would be a mistake read more

I found hair that was not mine tangled in my eggs. My pancakes, eggs, sausage and hash browns were cold. I could not believe it. Especially since i paid almost $15. One lady I believe who's name was Tina had the worst customer service I have ever experienced. Very disappointed and am not one to leave reviews but this experience was simply too bad to not. Once again I found hair in my cold eggs. Doesn't even deserve 1 star. read more

Came here with my family. Only 3 of us and the service was horrible. My sons pancakes were ruined by old stale syrup. My food was ruined by flys at our table. Our server was inattentive, dropped our toast face down on the table and just never came back to check up on us. We had to wait 10 min in line just to pay because the person at the register was also responsible for phone orders. I just moved to the area but won't be coming here ever again. If zero stars were a possibility, I'd give it. read more

Pro: 24 hours a day. You won't die from the food. Quick service, clean tables, and neat bathroom. Close to highway. Good Parking. Con: You probably will die in the parking lot. People of Walmart patrons. Been coming here for years, from unfortunated school dinners to meeting people for unfriendly chats, this place has always been here for me. Price is so so, food is grease and filling. It's what you expect from Dennys, really nothing bad or good about this restaurant.... all except the location - right now to a drug den motel 6 (seedy people all over the place. Try to avoid the mix soda drinks, stick with the breakfast, and try to come here in day time. read more

Ordered the Sriracha burger with a side of fries and a Dr.Pepper. My burger was dry and the bread was over toasted. My French fries where a bit overcooked and my Dr.Pepper was pretty much all ice. The only upside to this dinner was our waitress was very friendly and very fast in getting our order placed. I felt the food sucked because of the cook and it doesn't reflect on the waitress service at all. read more

The worse service ever we waited for 20 minutes To be seated 45 minutes for the order that we never received I spoke to manager she just ignored me and when I ask the waitress how much more she just show the order screen from far away and with a very bad attitude people had to wait to pay for the food the manager did not have anyone at the register I know that Denisse is not the best but today I received the horrible service ever read more

"Four stars?!?", you ask? First off, I reckon that I have to qualify that. I'm rating from the perspective of what this place is and its nearby competition. This is a Denny's, after all, and anyone reading a Yelp review about a Denny's is more likely to be sitting in a booth here looking for an entertaining way to pass time as they await their food than they are to be someone just perusing breakfast options in this particular area before deciding where to go. Either way, Yelpers should inherently know and understand that four stars here versus four stars at a steakhouse, for example, are not nearly the same league or, to channel, Quentin Tarantino, "it ain't even the same friggin sport." So, no taking me to task for putting a Denny's into the same rarified 4-star air as an impeccably-maintained sushi destination. Apples and oranges, or should I say edamame and bacon? Now that that's out of the way... This location was surprisingly good for what it is and what it strives to be: a relatively quick and casual value breakfast joint. I came ~9am on a Wednesday and it was fairly busy. Seated in a booth off to the back, I figured that I might be easily forgotten about by the waitstaff. However, the manager who sat me brought my drink out and came back again a few minutes later to take my food order. He didn't write it down (build your own slam of two eggs over easy, pancakes, hash browns, and English muffins) so that made me a bit nervous that I might be receiving some sort of mystery breakfast that only had a passing resemblance to what I had ordered. When the server arrived with my food, she confidently asked whether it was looking right and, to my liking, it was. Everything delivered together and prepped correctly. Only after she left the table did I notice that I had no silverware. No worries, though, as the manager came by to check on me right after the plates were served and I asked for cutlery, which he promptly provided along with a cordial apology that it had not been placed there already. The waitress checked on me at least twice during the meal and offered to and did refill my drink when it was a bit more than 1/3 full (perfect timing). All of the food was fine - not winning any culinary hardware here but it was plenty good enough to satisfy the pancake craving with which I awoke this morning. Service was very attentive despite a pretty busy floor (all tables in front were full and they opened up the back room about halfway through my visit). All of the staff I encountered were courteous and proactive. Hey, Denny's may not motivate you to go out of the way (especially during daylight hours), but I think that this is the best spot within a 3-4 mile radius that is open for regular weekday breakfast. read more

No, this is not high end brunch...but, it is perfect for families with noisy children and large groups. Yes, the plates are old and a bit grimy, but they get your food out in a timely many and isn't this the thing you need when with little kids? The servers are hustling and even tempered no matter your request! We went on Sunday at ten and it is crowded but it went fast. They have lots of choices for little kids including chocolate chip and blueberry pancakes. Large mugs with hot, good coffee. Doesn't that sound happy! How could a short order cook ruin two eggs easy over? They can't! read more

It's Denny's! What can you say? It's honestly the same everywhere. I ordered food and got exactly what I ordered. The staff is always super friendly. Its not in the best part of town but overall its a great place. read more

The waitress was annoyed that we asked her to give us an additional menu. She was the most unfriendly and unwelcoming waitress we have had in a while. She kept telling us how long we would have to wait in the not so happy tone. Not a pleasant experience at all. read more

The view of my food just sitting under the heater for 5 min is REEAAAL nice. I'm sure that sugar being refilled was more important. Plus who delivered pancakes without syrup? Yes I called you out. read more

Today is October 19 2019, my wife and I decided to have breakfast at the local Dennys in Escondido near Mission AV. We ordered one of the specials of the day, soon after receiving our plates my wife was about to pour syrup on her pancakes and I had to stop her from doing that. She asked me why, I told her that there was a fly inside the syrup container. We were shocked, I told our waiter and we got was "sorry" word of advice: Be careful of what you eat, check it First. read more

Today was a horrible experience. Food was okay. We paid for the bill and left to the car. As we're about to leave, the waitress comes out saying she gave us the wrong receipt and we owed her 23 something more from what we originally paid. You're here making us look like we dined and ditched. It was such an embarrassing moment because we paid the receipt you gave us and you're here having to go outside to our vehicle for your mistake making it seem like we just didn't pay. read more

horrible customer service. They forgot they had me on wait TWICE on the phone

It's hard to admit that I'm a big fan of Denny's. Being a foodie and all, when I end up at Denny's comma I feel like I didn't try very hard. I could have done better. Denny's is somehow a fall back. Literally none of that is true. Belize is a great American restaurant and has always been consistent Kama always open comma and about every major city a small town you can ever visit. Might go to menu item is the original Grand Slam. I get up with two pancakes, two scrambled eggs soft, and all crispy bacon. I've been ordering that at Denny's Across America for 20 years and it has always tasted exactly the same. Sure, they upgraded the pancakes to a more fluffy style or something. But they've always been good. This Denny's is no exception to the rule. They have great service and the same consistent breakfast served here I've come to expect over the years. read more

I'm rating this as a Denny's and not comparing it to other restaurants. As far as Denny's go, what makes this a four-star is the manager and the staff. We have always had good service, good food, and no problems with our orders. They are kid friendly, even if some of the patrons aren't. If you like Denny's and you aren't a big whiner or a pain in the butt then this is plenty good enough. If you don't like Denny's then you probably shouldn't eat at one, even this one. read more

This Denny's is terrible. The last time I was there, the guy forgot about us. We had to wait like 40 minutes just to order. Then it took another 30 minutes to get our food. Never came back to refill drinks or give us the check. We totally could have just walked out without paying. The guy couldn't care less. Don't go here. There are homeless people everywhere in the parking lot. Just make the drive to the San Marcos Denny's...you'll thank me later. read more

This place is still not on my list to go for a bite to eat, I tried it again to see if anything had changed, well let me tell you the service is still on a scale of 10 I would give the server a -5 for the service I received, It is back on my boycott list, the server waited until my ice tea glass was empty until it was refiled, and I had to ask for desert, the food was ok, yet I have a better Ham & Cheese Omlet, I would go else where not to this Dennys ever again. I thought that the place yes was clean, but for the time of day I went there the place was empty it was about 4 pm in the afernoon. That should have been my first clue. Oh well not again I will go else where. read more

Fast service and very courteous staff!! I have been eating breakfast at any Denny's when me and my family takes a trip. From all the Denny's I've eaten this the place I am very much satisfied with their services. Although the there are a lot of people eating inside, the food was served too fast unexpectedly. Usually on other Denny's I went to, the main concern was it takes a long wait for your food to be serve. Therefore, I give this place a five stars for the fast service. read more

Just had lunch with my family there today. - parking: plenty. - greeting/waiter/cashier: OK, but not the guy whom brought out foods wasn't professional. I asked him for the A-1 for my steak, but he never showed up. - Line: we waited just 5 minutes for our table. - Order taking: quick, but we had to wait for 30 minutes for our food to come to our table. - Food: we have ordered the following meals: -- Philly Cheesesteak Omelette ($11.69) {Three egg omelette with grilled prime rib, fire-roasted bell peppers and onions, sautéed mushrooms and melted Swiss cheese. Served with hash browns and choice of bread.} - All are OK, except sourdough bread and a little burn potatoes. -- 55+ Grilled Chicken ($9.99) {A grilled seasoned chicken breast. Served with choice of two sides and dinner bread. Gluten Free when you choose two Gluten Free sides and the Gluten Free English Muffin.} - All are OK, except broccoli were so over-cooked that we could not eat it. The grilled chicken piece was so small. -- Spicy Sriracha Burger ($10.59) {Cheddar cheese, bacon, jalapeños and creamy Sriracha sauce. Served with lettuce, tomato, red onions and pickles on a brioche bun.} - Tasted just OK, nothing special. -- 2 eggs/T bone steak ($16.79) - over easy eggs were good, the steak was way over cooked, and it wasn't medium-rare as I ordered. The steak got so much bone and fat which I could eat roughly about 1/2 of it. The sourdough bread wasn't that fresh, a potato was a little burn. - Price: a little pricey base on food's portion, and its taste. read more

Arrived for breakfast and watched multiple tables of people who arrived after us not only waited on first but also given food before we could even place our order. A low point for Denny's dining. read more

I have to say this was the most disgusting display of "what, I don't understand what's wrong" in my life! I ordered a t-bone and eggs.... pretty easy but the most disgusting looking piece of meat I have ever seen swimming in WATER not juices, comes out coated in particles from the grill, curdled fat, and grease comes out, so I tell the waitress "this doesn't look very good, can I change it" she says "I'm sorry what's wrong with it" I am shocked and she says let me get a manager and he comes over and says in a condescending tone "well that looks medium to me" I ask him if he would eat this and he's says I'm sorry did you expect it some other way? Totally insane! I ask to change it he says they could cook it more...... insane read more

Just came to Dennys to have a late dinner with my husband. The server who was awful sits us next to a passed out transient. ( who is obviously nodding out several times , in his plate) Our Waitress was Isabel. She kept telling him to wake up over 5 times. Really bad for business by the way. Service terrible. No refills almost choked on my fries they were so burnt. Kinda like the waitress. I wouldn't recommend anyone going there to eat especially if Isabel is your waitress expect to get crappy service with an attitude. Save your money eat elsewhere. read more

We are on our way back home to Las Vegas and stopped by here for some food because normally Denny's is really good. This one was super greasy.. hash browns where half way cooked, my daughters chicken strips had grease all over the plate, my mom was barley able to eat her food due to all the grease. The waitress was polite and nice but she got the manager and he takes off only $3 when she barley touched her food like okay.. thanks. I just paid and left. read more

Great experience thanks to Izzy! Thanks for the friendly service. She interacted and joked with us and her personality was worth a return trip. read more

We had dinner here last night.There was only a few customers inside at the time.Our server was super friendly and had a great personality.We were served our meals after about 15 minutes.It was good like any other Denny's we've been to.
