The food made me horribly sick. I initially ordered 3 dishes and the server only brought two. I told her about the third and by the time I received it, the rest of the food was cold. read more

Amazing experience here! Staff was friendly and service was A1! The manager monique was so on top of everything and made sure to check on her customers, extremely pleased with my time at this denny's. Will for sure be coming back here! read more

I don't know why people are hating this place so much. Everything was clean and quick. Food was fresh and delicious. Jennifer was super helpful and nice! Will for sure stop here again. read more

The last two years, I've been coming to eat at this location when I past through town for work. However, this year I feel management has been greater then what they already were. I wanted to show appreciation of great customer service from a gentleman in the back and I believe a manger named Monique. Monique has helped me several times and she's consistent with being friendly and professional to myself and other customers. She's always made me feel welcomed and she even greets me by my name. Other workers have been great too and everyone works hard. I been in this restaurant when it's busy and slow and all the workers are still work. The restaurant is always clean too. read more

I've been coming to Denny's for years and this Denny's always gets it right. My wife was a server so I know how tough the business is. My server was Elizabeth and poor thing was running around this afternoon doing such a great job. Except for the manager that bullied her a little towards the end everything was great and I would definitely ask for Elizabeth only next time. read more

Great service! Food was delicious! A shout out to Dulin, the hostess & server! She was hustling to give all the customers prompt service! Shout out to the cook, Edwin (spelling?). Food was delicious and served quickly! read more

Manager and cook cooking with mask not covering nose. Gross. But they make guests wear masks correctly??? No paper towels in restrooms to open door with.

I ride my Harley all over the USA...... My longest Ride was 29 days, 8600 miles and 13 States. Our go to place for Breakfast is Dennys. I always stop at this particular Dennys on my way home to Carlsbad, Ca. A year ago I stopped and met a wonderful waitress who was so pleasant and friendly. I remember her so I decided to stop to see if she was still working there. Amazingly there she was, but I wasn't sure with her mask on, BUT she remembered me and even the conversation. Apparently Elaine Carter has been at this Dennys for 27 years. It was like running into a old friend...... The conversation flowed at a distance because of the China Virus, but from now on I will be stopping there to see Elaine and maybe some breakfast. GIVE HER A RAISE, a big one........... Steven Crouch read more

Just had the best experience at denny's thanks to the manager Monique. Very well ran Dennys. Excellent service. Great food! Will definitely be back, thank you! read more

Good place to have breakfast, brunch, and dinner depends on everybody what service they get how there food comes out but the service to begin with was good 3 stars because you never know what to expect read more

Denny's - Diners Near Me - Gustine, California

We hadn't eaten at a Denny's for at least 10 years. We were so surprised to discover this place was great! Even with high inflation going on everywhere else, I ordered bacon, eggs and French toast (which was excellent) for $5.99. And the real grand slam was the waitress, Mardain. Somehow she managed to take on about seven tables all arriving at one time, several of them seating four or more people. We thought we'd be waiting all morning but the meal came fast, the food was good and we didn't even have to wait to pay our bill. oh and the coffee was topped off constantly. read more

All I wanted was a refill of my travel mug, with hot coffee. The kid who was acting as hostess insisted that the ONLY way he could sell me a refill was to pour coffee into a paper/wax disposable cup, and then pour that into my travel mug. THE ENTIRE POINT of me using a travel mug is to NOT waste disposable cups. This is inexcusable. read more

This is by far the worst Dennys I've ever been to, I didn't think it was going to be so bad should of know when you see a bunch of homeless around the place but still decided to give them a chance and was hungry. They took forever to take our order. Coffee seems like it was sitting there for days, I asked for eggs to be well done not even close, pancakes as you can see in the pic wasn't even cook, not even once the waitress came to check on us and see if we needed anything. Next time I'll stop at a gas station and get chips and snacks. If I could give negative I would read more

I see why it has 2 stars. Cobb salad was completely disappointing. Too small and mostly lettuce. Obviously not meant to be good. Service sucked. Asked for flavored creamer, she came back to my table twice before I had to remind her. And she only had 3 tables in the restaurant. Dont bother. read more

Mini Mexico the cook is in the back playing Hispanic music as loud as possible where it's hard to enjoy your breakfast the server was great but she needs help the other server lady was just standing at the front walking in circles this is not an all American dinner there are Mexican kids getting out of there seats and there booths to dance to the Mexican music that the cooks is blasting in the kitchen read more

Dulin made the BEST chocolate shake! The staff works real well together. Charlie worked his magic on the grill and in the deep fryer. Friendly atmosphere, wonderful service and delicious food. Thank you for a GREAT dinner! read more

Stopped in at 8:30 am. 2/3 of tables were full. 5 families waiting to be seated. Left in disgust after 15 minutes.

The only one in the area open 24 hours. I'd still drive further for this one since the service is a lot better here. Just have patience sometimes they are busy. read more

Dulin was a great host. And Daniel the Cook made great food. Ordered to go and was helped right away.

At around 1am, my mom and I were on a long drive back to SF. My blood sugar level was low, and couldn't drive another mile. We decided to stop over at Denny's 'cause there were no more establishments open. And I just needed to take a breather and buy a snack to wake up. I could barely keep my eyes open and was already leaning on the table. When I ordered an appetizer - the bacon with potatoes, the waiter and cashier LOUDLY discussed, "That's ALL she's ordering?". The cashier said "Hey, I offered soup and salad. But she doesn't want it. That's all she ordered." The server sighed and went to the kitchen. I ignored this. I also ordered hot water with lemon for my mom. When I got the bill, I paid it immediately and left tip. But when I looked at the receipt again, I saw that they charged me for the water and indicated that it was TEA. I wanted to leave it alone because it was just a few dollars, but my mom was angry because they were RUDE and DISHONEST. She went back to set it straight. They gave cash back, but still charged my card. It isn't the amount of money with the "TEA", but the principle behind it. I understand that the night shift sucks, but the servers (I only remember Daniel, and not the older cashier woman) were RUDE to us travelers, who just need to take care of their blood sugar levels or want a snack and not a meal. They did not have to discuss LOUDLY that that's all I wanted. Whether or not they charged us extra was an honest mistake, they should have STILL NOT BELITTLED ORDERS. read more

The food took forever and the food was cold. They used bad avocados in my gfs sandwich. The worst part is the waitresses know their chef's are shitty because they keep apologizing for them! read more

Denny's - Super disappointed with this Denny's - Diners Near Me - Gustine, California

I stopped here for breakfast on Thursday 4/18/19 service was friendly and food was yummy. I forgot my wallet in the ladies bathroom, came back to look for it on 4/19 and the manager was so nice and gave it back to me, with all of my personal stuff in it. I want to thank her by name again, but for got her name. She's Latina (maybe Mexicana). Once again, good is delicious, friendly service, and very honest good people working here. Gracias! read more

I am on a trip and I stopped at this Denny's me and my friend at first we were kind of Lerry because our first waitress and Asian lady she just served that was it we thought she was our waitress we were disappointed and Christie came along with a great big smile excellent customer service and a positive attitude best service ever thank you so much Christie for turning this visit around around for us we will definitely check this place out again on our next trip out have a great day read more

I wish I could give this place negative stars. Terrible experience. We visited this place on Sunday the 30th. I stressed with our waitress that I have an allergy to wheat so I need gluten free. Apparently the cook didn't understand and put bread on top of my order. I told her I was sorry but I couldn't eat it. She took it back and we had to wait 30 minutes for my food. At this point I was not happy THEN the manager came over to my table her attitude was that I had inconvenienced them, she was rude and dismissive. I never asked for anything other than food I could eat. Usually Denny's have been well trained on the gluten free issue but this one hasn't and clearly this manager thinks it's a hassle. Horrible experience read more

Stay away from this place. The waitresses are rude, cut you off mid sentence and food took over an hour. All of that after we stood at the door for over 15 min without any acknowledgement (keep in mind we were the ONLY ones waiting to be seated) then took over 10min just to get waters on the table. The management of this Dennys is horrendous and it is run terribly. If I were the owner I would take a seriously hard look at this place. Ive seen 2 seperate tables literally ask if their food was done yet and get up and walk out. Losing business and for good reason. read more

On this stretch of I-5, Pea Soup Andersen's is my usual stop for food. So the last time I was here and hungry, I learned first-hand that they're not open 24/7. That left me with this Denny's down the road. Unlike most Denny's after 2 a.m., this one was nearly deserted. I didn't take that as a bad omen. After all, you know what you're in for when you eat at Denny's, and I wanted to get back on the road quickly. If I was in charge of central casting, I'd make sure that all waitresses at diners were of the pleasingly plump variety. When I'm sitting in front of a plate of greasy food, I don't want to be judged. A happy, chubby waitress helps. Continuing with the diner aesthetic, I want the short order cook to (a) look like he could kick my ass, and (b) have a mustache. Can't say why, but it just seems right. This Denny's scores on both counts, plus because I was sitting at the counter and the heat lamp was partially in the way, I could never actually see the cook's eyes, sort of like the mariachi in Desperado. The food was better than I thought it would be. My Mega French Toast Slam was on special. The French toast was sweet and not undercooked. The sausage was nothing special, and the bacon was so thin it appeared to be shaved rather than cut, but the hash browns were crispy (and the waitress asked if I wanted them crispy, which is a sign of a great diner waitress). Given the time and the location, I couldn't have asked for more. read more

OK this morning for breakfast, but there are way more flies than customers! Next time probably somewhere different. Service and kitchen were pretty slow. Credit card machines down. The place needs some help. read more

I wouldn't wish this place upon my worst enemy. The food was a terrible blight upon the world, right behind famine and disease. Salmon came late and burnt. A fly landed on it once and immediately left the restuarant. I hate Dennys sober! read more

My visit was a couple days ago and I've been debating whether or not to write about my experience but I'll definitely never be eating here again so why not. My mom and I walked in and were asked by the host to wait 15 minutes for a table to open up, we agreed and sat at the waiting booth. After waiting about 7-10 minutes a group of 5 white males walk in and they were spotted by a waitress and were seated immediately. I was so confused. I looked at my mom, she looked at me and all we could think is the obvious right? They're white, we're brown (Mexican) they get seated first and we're still waiting for a table. What else were we supposed to think besides that this was a racial thing. I didn't even want to eat there anymore but my mom did so we waited another minute and the host tells us our booth is ready and as she's walking us over I ask her "Is there a reason why they were seated before us?" And she said that the waitress who seated them didn't know that we had been waiting first. Yeah sure, sounds about white. Anyway, I guess the host told the waitress that I was upset and she came to apologize to us and told us she'd waive our drinks for the inconvenience, I thanked her but honestly I was too upset to care for her apology. Would she have apologized if I hadn't of spoken up? I doubt it. I'm sure it would have just been swept under the rug. I wasn't going to write a review I was just going to shrug it off but if I stay quiet about this how many other people of color will they allow this to happen to? read more

Denny's - I would not have been so generous with the tip but my mom said she left her 20% to show her that we aren't as*holes lol - Diners Near Me - Gustine, California

I get it, it's a chain restaurant, and the people who run it are just doing a job, but man... this place needs a pick me up. My family was seated next to a window. The window sill had dust and dead flys just chillin' there, it obviously hadn't been cleaned in a while. Not only that, but our order wasn't made right. Got cold pancakes (bummer) and was brought hash browns when I asked for fries. Disappointing. read more

worst service that I have ever had! Waitress Duhlin was very rude, unattentive. By the time our food got to our table it was cold and orders were messed up. Nobody had substitutions or anything and they were not busy. only positive thing I could say about my visit is that the 2 male hosts were very nice and helpful with what they could do. Will not come here again. read more

Denny's - Cold food and burner toast. - Diners Near Me - Gustine, California

3 a.m. on Christmas morning is a terrible time to look for a cup of coffee or a rest room on I-5, particularly if you are a woman. This Denny's was open and genuinely welcoming. I walked in and dashed past the friendly waiter/welcomer to the ladies' room. A few minutes later, I emerged in a condition for polite conversation. The gentleman (all of 21, by the look of him) smiled, welcomed me as if I had not barreled past him looking for the loo, seated me ("Booth or table?") in the nearly deserted restaurant. Coffee took a moment, because he said what was in the pot was "old" and he brewed fresh for me. The eggs were exactly as ordered, the coffee was unremarkable, exactly what I wanted -- no gourmet delights, just some tasty caffeine and protein to wake me up so I could make the last part of my trip north without falling asleep. Grateful, warm, and ready to face the road, I returned to my car and headed up I-5. read more

Stopped by on my way up to SF. it was around 8 or 9pm. It was moderately busy. Got seated and had the WEIRDEST waitress. I don't expect much from Denny's to start with. It's pretty standard everywhere you go. Greasy, unhealthy, short-order type of food. I just want to order, eat, pay and leave. Our waitress attempted to have a conversation with us, but then cracked jokes that were kind of rude and well...at this point of my drive, i was like, whatever. Just bring me my food. Hold the saliva. As we ate she seated another couple of guys and i overheard her say "okay, so take your time, i'm just going to stand here so it looks like i'm taking your oder...." WTF? The guys looked perturbed (spelling?)... In any case, the food was just meh, but "meh" is my expectation at Denny's. Paid, left and got the hey-hey outta Gustine. Probably won't stop by again. read more

Never been a big fan of Denny's Restaurants, but a waitress Dulin S at this Denny's on I 5 in CA has to be the worlds most amazing waitress!!! My husband and I were passing through heading south on I5 in CA on Christmas Eve about 9pm when we decided it was time for some dinner. We were pulling a 5th wheel and Denny's looked like the best place to pull off that would have a place to park our big beast. We were greeted and sat the minuted we walked in, Dulin S was our waitress, she was so sweet and efficient. Got our drinks right away, took our order and the food came just about as fast. Yes it was hot and dam good! Dulin S seemed to know when we needed something and there she was. While watching her in action we noticed she was training other employees as well. I truly can not say enough about her, she was amazing. Thank you Dulin S for making our Christmas Eve a dinner experience to remember! You have to be the sweetest most efficient waitress we have ever had at any restaurants. If you happen to stop in at Denny's in Gustine CA make sure Dulin S is your waitress, you wont regret it! Thanks Dulin The Thornhills read more
