My husband and I love coming to this location so much we have found ourselves as regulars now. The atmosphere is friendly from the hostess, Sara, to CK our waitress. Sara always greets us with a genuine smile and contagious enthusiasm. CK always amazes us with how she can remember our order without writing it down. She is definitely a face we look for when we come in. That's just the people. The food is amazing, even so that my daughter ate her whole plate. (FYI - she never does) read more

Needed a place to relax for a bit while the rush hour traffic died down, my girlfriend decided she wanted a Denny's milkshake. We were greeted by our hostess Shannon at the door who I would come to find out would make our dining experience a delight. It being so hot outside, we ordered our milkshake and a coke zero, the milkshake in particular being very yummy. Shannon suggested we try the Bourbon Bacon Burger with seasoned fries. The burger tasted fresh and my girlfriend swore the fries were the best she's ever had This visit completely changed my perspective of Denny's, shoutout to Shannon and we will definitely be enjoying this again when we're in the area. read more

A friend and I stopped at this Denny's on Saturday, August 15, 2026, at approximately 6:00 p.m. for what we expected to be a quick meal. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing from beginning to end. When we arrived, there was no one at the hostess station, even though a sign instructed customers to wait for a hostess. After waiting, we eventually seated ourselves. There was only one other table occupied in the entire restaurant. We waited approximately 10 minutes before our server came over and brought us menus. Unfortunately, her attitude was extremely unpleasant. Rather than greeting us or asking how she could help, she curtly asked, "What do you want?" Her demeanor throughout the visit was rude and unwelcoming. We placed our order, and when our food arrived, one of the hamburgers was literally dripping with grease. So much grease had accumulated that it pooled on the plate, and it took three napkins just to clean up the mess. Needless to say, it was one of the worst hamburgers I have ever been served. When we told the server about the excessive grease, her response was, "It's not my fault." She then told us that if we weren't happy, we should talk to the cook. There was no attempt to apologize or address our concern. After we finished eating, we went to the counter to pay. Even though there was still only one other customer in the restaurant, we had to wait until one of us went looking for our server. When we found her, she said, "I am busy working," before eventually coming over to check us out. We again expressed our disappointment with the food. Her response was essentially that if we didn't like the food, we shouldn't come back. We paid our bill and left without leaving a tip. Based on this experience, we will not be returning to Denny's. We are fans of Jim's Restaurants and decided to give Denny's a try. Unfortunately, that was a mistake. The food was poor, the service was worse, and the attitude we received from our server was completely unacceptable. Servers have difficult jobs, and everyone can have a bad day, but customers should still be treated with basic courtesy and respect. This server clearly needs additional customer-service training. read more

My other half and I went because she was craving french toast and I had a free breakfast coupon from my birthday. The food was solid, but for me the service was subpar. Very blunt gentlemen when I asked about substitutes for my lovely to get hashbrowns. The price didn't make me excited either. $36 before tip for both plates. The taste was not worth the price. Considering how much fun we had in the restaurant because of the good vibes is the reason for the four. read more

We are tired of paying too much for breakfast. So we decided to go check out Denny's. Parking lot was almost full. Had no problem finding a spot to park. Went inside, it was nice and warm inside. Which I really enjoyed. It was a cold morning. Got sat down, and they brought us a menu and silverware. We started with coffee, I guess $2.99 is average for coffee now. At least this coffee was really good. Smelled good and had a good flavor. I drink coffee with just sugar and it was good. They brought a mini carafe of coffee, really cool. The menu has breakfast, lunch and dinner. We just got breakfast. I got the two egg slam, came with hash brown, gave it to Maria. It was just two eggs, toast and hash browns. Maria got the 55+ plate. Came with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage links, and pancakes. We shared the pancakes, I found a place that has really good pancakes. The bacon is two strips, but thin. It was enough, but I like thick cut bacon. The place is super clean. Staff is friendly. read more

Not that the restaurant was bad or anything negative, but this review is mainly for our server -- Chun Ye K or "CK" as her name tag said. The moment she greeted us she had a big smile on her face, walked us to our table and immediately recommended something to eat. She then asked us for our drinks to get them while we browsed the menu. Probably no more than a minute later she returned, still smiling, with our drinks. We ordered what she had suggested (The Lumberjack Slam) and it was delicious and filling! Yum The whole time we were there she kept checking with us and ensuring we had plenty to drink in our cups. Her happy attitude so early in the morning was contagious and we left both full and in a good mood. read more

Unfortunately as many times as I've been to this dennys at all hours of the day today I had a terrible experience. Me and my wife were sat and everything started off fine until we noticed 30 minutes had passed and we still hadn't received our food. We noticed tables around us getting upset that the waitress was forgetting things and taking long. We noticed that our food had been sitting under the window for her to grab and she passed it over and over and never came to our table. My wife ordered a cold sandwich which arrived and was burnt and hot, who wants to eat a sandwich that is now hot and soggy ? No one, incorrect bread as well but that is besides the point because all she offered was for us to get the correct bread on the side despite the sandwich being in poor condition? Lol. We then decided we no longer wanted to eat there and when she went back to inform her manager the response we heard her say OUT LOUD was "haha that's stupid tell them bye see you later" she then approached us and said with hostility "what's the problem" I didn't know which eye to focus on so when she got ugly I GOT UGLY and told her the f****** problem is the food arrived in poor condition, took forever, she forgot to put in our order and we heard what you said so yk what bye see you later. She only replied "go then" so we walked away and she mumbles "so stupid". I don't know how someone in management can be on such a high horse and so disrespectful but yet you work at Dennys and look like this. I suggest everyone take their business elsewhere because I will be taking this to corporate. read more

Denny's - How the manager looks.... - Diners Near Me - Live Oak, Texas

Location. Live Oak, TX. Stopped here on way back from Fiesta Texas San Antonio 10:30 at night. We were sat down. Took 15 minutes to get a waiter to check on us and asked what we would like to drink. Ordered an appetizer plus our entrees. Took 30 minutes to get our appetizer. It's been 1 hr as I'm writing this review and still no entree. Coffee tastes like warm dirty water. Tea tastes old. That forgot one entree. Waiter said is was overlooked. Had them put it in to go box. Food was cold and under cooked. read more

Today my husband and I visited this Denny's, since we've had not so pleasant experiences at other Denny's and it was a great choice. Lesley the waiter was attentive, very pleasant and courteous. We will definitely be back! read more

Never let it be said that I am not a man of my word. It has been roughly a year since our last visit and I must say, I am impressed. During our visit the diner was clean and fresh, the atmosphere was festive and the staff was on point. Our waitress was so funny I almost choked when she cracked her jokes refilling my coffee. Food was great and not overly greasy as out past experience was. Maybe it was just a good day, maybe they have a manager now that knows how to run a diner. No idea, but we will be back, and soon, to test that theory. read more

Do not come here late at night. Understaffed, undercooked food, extremely long wait lines even for mobile orders placed 30+ minutes in advance. Do yourself a favor and take yourself to another location. Awful night shift employee who cannot handle more than 2 tables. As a server myself, this location could do with more training and more help. Do not waste your time. Food is less than mediocre here and close to being a health hazard. Horrible location. read more

I was here and I was having my breakfast eggs and bacon then I found and massive piece of hair in my food and almost choked. The service was terrible and got called multiple racial slurs for being black. Also the ambience was terrible with broken plates and vomit on the floor. If I could I would rate it -5 stars but the app doesn't allow that read more

My personal favorite.....I Love their pumpkin pecan pancakes.... Yummy! Staff is always friendly!

It has been a great experience from food to service. This is the only restaurant that actually can make traditional omelette. Denny's on Shertz need to send their cook to learn and get more experience from this Cook. read more

Not only did I see the manager pitching in with smiles and encouragement as a chef because they were short staffed, but I noticed new wait staff added to the experienced team, and there were more smiles from the team than I have seen in a long time. They were helping each other and there was no wait person standing around watching while a co worker ran around frantic with their assigned section. The changes impact us as customers and make for a happy experience. Thanks! read more

It was my first time in a Denny's since 2014. My experience at this Denny's was great! Great, friendly customer service! Fast service + great tasting food!

The food and service is good but it usually takes at least 50 minutes for a couple of pancakes

First time at Dennys after a morning appt I'm glad we came. Service was impeccable and our waitress was really sweet. The food was cooked perfectly and the portion size was a lot more than I expected. So definitely worth your buck. The area was really clean and constantly checking on the rest of the tables. It was very busy but all of the staff handled it with class. I will definitely come back. read more

They staff seam disorganized, I am upset because we had to wait 25 minutes only to have our party split in half, and sat at different tables. There seems to be a lack of communication between the staff and customers. read more

I enjoy coming to this dinner because the food and service are great. Our server was courteous and attentive to our needs. The food usually takes between 8 to 10 minutes.

It's a Denny's, just like all the other Denny's. Parking lot is kind of small and can fill up but there is a hotel next door that you can usually find a parking spot at. Service was good and so was the food. Again, it's Denny's - nothing really stood out and there is not much else I can say. Actually, there is one more thing I can say - they are consistent - and in a good way. You go to a Denny's with a certain expectation and they always deliver. You could blind fold me and put me in a Denny's anywhere in the country and I would think it was the same Denny's I ate at two months ago. read more

Denny's - bugs in food or roach - Diners Near Me - Live Oak, Texas

This is my first review ever and what better place to start than my experience here. To begin entering the lobby there was this distinct smell of like old mop water I can't find the words to describe it. Secondly, we were told we would be seated in 15-20 minutes yet I could see at least 4 empty clean tables within my view from the lobby. The table we got seated at is dirty but the female that sat us down immediately brought a towel to clean it up. As we were seated it took about 15 minutes for the server to realize she had our table. When she approached us she said, " I hadn't seen you all I'm sorry." So after she took our drink order I noticed a table in front of us that hadn't been cleaned since we got seated. I don't know if they are short staffed there but it wasn't even busy for it being a Saturday morning because like I mentioned before there was a bunch of empty tables all around the restaurant. So I want to say maybe like 20-25 minutes after our drinks were served we finally got our food and the server apologized saying it was busy. Going back to that table in front of us that still had food and hadn't been cleaned. Even after we got our food it still didn't get cleaned and food didn't get picked up until we almost finished so basically the food was siting there for a total of 40 minutes. I took a picture of the table with the food and then right after it got cleaned with time stamps. Our food was good and customer service was decent too. Overall I believe this establishment can improve its service and also focus on being a more clean restaurant. I will probably be going to another Denny's from now on. read more

Food is good Service is good AmBiance is not so good. Music they play is toooo loud and not restaurant music. They need to turn it down REAL low, or don't play music at all. If they do play music they need to play easy to listen music, maybe oldies. But for sure turn volume down, people r trying to eat. Not drinking alcohol and dancing. Let patrons enjoy their food without loud, terrible music. read more

I hate giving mediocre reviews but it is what it is. Maybe next time will be better. Get there At 11 and she's says 30 min wait.... Waited till 12 to be seated (party of 7) the hostess was very sweet and keeping her cool being by herself. We order drinks and the kids meals because they were starving! They came out in about 15 mins... cool.. and Katniss our waitress was very nice and tentative to our needs. But dang we had to wait another 50 mins to get our food. So by this time it's already 1ish and I had filled up on coffee And overly greasy chocolate balls. but when the food arrived it was warm and tasted yummy. Thank god we were in no rush... the table next to me was complains about waiting for their food (been seated 10 mins ) and the waitress said they only had one cook... for such short staff they did a good job. Get them some more help!! read more
