    This has been a staple in Merced for as long as I've been alive. The service is always outstanding and the food is so good compared to most fast food places. They are amazing at seating large groups and moving people through the restaurant quickly. The portions are smaller than before, but the food is great and they still have a value menu.

    Every is different company all is around. Is all these people on the table.

    I have to be proof enough for you. How about convincing me? Also, if I can make a good food, friends, and time, now this would mean breakfast and lunch.

    This was our first stop after a 3 hour drive. I'll be honest, the area felt a little sketchy at first. I parked right out front and asked to sit by the window so I could keep an eye on my car. That said, the staff was incredibly friendly. I really appreciated their energy and how attentive they were. I ordered some sweet pancakes (can't remember the exact name or flavor), but they were a bit dry, and the fries were slightly overcooked. Still, it was a decent spot to grab a quick bite before heading to the hotel.

    The food was amazing and the server mariah is so sweet she met all of our needs and brought food and drinks so fast she's also so polite and asked us how we are doing !

    The best place to get a late night breakfast...preferably breakfast before 11am! They have a menu full of omelets, breakfast favorites, and more! The servers are attentive. And if you're down for a 50's diner vibe with some finesse, this is your place to go

    Dirty utensils

    I don't understand what is happening with Denny's, but I hope you read this review. Ms. L was our server for the night. She came took our orders and then proceeded to wait on other tables. I ordered a double avocado cheeseburger with mushrooms. My wife ordered the breaded chicken with vegetables. While Ms. L was walking past me she noticed that I was looking at the utensils she had previously left at our table. She asked if anything was wrong. I pointed out that the utensils still had food from the previous customer. She went and got us plastic utensils to use instead. Finally our order came in and my burger did not have the mushrooms I had asked for. The chicken my wife ordered was severely undercooked. It was still pink. If you don't know what could happen if you eat raw chicken meat please take the time to Google it. Make your own judgement and be safe.

    The hostesses with the mostest.  You rock girls!!!!

    The service and food at this Denny's blew me away today. Cindy, Cassandra and he staff were courteous and kind. Quick with coffee and drinks. Able to make changes to our orders as we are vegetarian. Definitely coming back here when I am passing through

    Breakfast

    It was amazing breakfast! I highly recommend this place to all who want to take a very tasty breakfast! Also I can definitely tell that the working personal were polite and professional. Next time will go there!

    Terrible service, hosts and waitresses don't even bother to acknowledge a customer. a simple "I'll be right with you" would suffice.

    Scott's Diner in Merced is always a win, and today was no exception. We were on our way to a hike…read morein Mariposa and wanted a Mexican breakfast that would actually power us through the trail--Scott's delivered in every way. We asked if they could do a special order: a burrito deconstructed, with over-easy eggs and the tortillas on the side. They were totally accommodating, and it was exactly what I was craving--fresh, filling, and seriously delicious. I went for the blueberry pancakes, and wow: they were enormous, fluffy, packed with real blueberries, and basically the perfect pre-hike fuel. And the coffee? Amazing, as always. I meant to take a picture of my food, but honestly I accidentally didn't--because everything looked so good that I dug in immediately. And even without the photo evidence, the presentation and plating were incredible, just like they always are. This place has my heart. I'd give it a hundred stars if I could--highly, highly recommend.

    Hole in the wall local place near the more southern area of hotels in Merced, and a welcome break…read morefrom mediocre hotel breakfast. Staff here are friendly, there's a solid bit of history and kitsch in the very back on the way to the restrooms, giving character to what is otherwise a decidedly local, low-frills experience. The steak salad (was it a steak taco salad?) looked quite tasty but also ordinary so I skipped it and stuck with breakfast; the sausage and eggs were very much unremarkable, but at least the hashbrowns were nicely pan fried and the eggs were a large portion. Biscuit and gravy reinforced the former impression, but again, hard to complain-- did the job. This place is super affordable and the overall verdict is a solid local place that's easy to appreciate but hard for me to say I would actually get excited about.

    I read that this restaurant had bad food grade last year and fail inspection. The recent reviews…read moremade me decide to give it a try since it also said they had passed their inspection this year and meet the qualifications to operate. First definitely a lot of choices for burgers and side choices too, my eyes were all over the place and took a while to finally make up My mind. Customer service wasn't bad. I like the out door tables and the cozy indoor for dine in. Looks clean for how to place looks. It's definitely located in a getto area can't even enjoy the meal outside when you got a group of people in the parking lot blasting music and being obnoxious. Either than that for being in the getto area the food is pretty good and has a good taste quality as well. My food tastes fresh and didn't taste like it's been sitting there for a while. So definitely recommend to give it a try. Bathroom is hidden too and looks decently cleaned.

    We decided to get the double cheeseburger, no fries, a vanilla and chocolate swirl ice cream cone…read moreto share. Wow, the burger was absolutely delicious, fresh tasting, yes, my guy and I shared it. I would prefer their burger than inn-n-out. The guy was friendly and gave us excellent customer service. We shared the ice cream cone, man, it was nice and creamy. You can sit inside or outside. It does have an outside overhang from the sun or if it was raining and tables. I need to go back and try their other food on the menu. I would recommend my family and friends to try their food.
