Ordering by going online and following the prompts failed. They charged me $48.00 for two burger meals for pick-up. Then said that the meals weren't prepared "because they didn't have a chef tonight" and refused to cancel the order and charge to my credit card insisting that it is my fault for following the prompts to order and not calling the store. Instead, I was told to take time off from work, travel 20 minutes during the workday to come talk with the general manager to request refund the next day. No customer service, common sense or an apology for the inconvenience. Take the money and run, then blame the customer and make it difficult to right a wrong. We will never go to Dennys again.​ read more

Only open til midnight, not 24 hours, but great waitress, fresh pot of decaf, great over 55 salmon plate with rice and veggies for 10.99 (and waitress pointed out that I could get that rather than the 16.29 version.) It's not haute cuisine but it was an absolutely perfect Denny's experience. read more

I came in at 4:53pm today. I used the bathroom then came out to the dining area. I asked if I should sit anywhere. There was only one other customer at this time. A waitress name Maria rudely instructed me to go to the counter and check in. Maybe she was having a bad day but if she hated her job that much, she should take a day off. Again, 2 customers in the restaurant but Maria was too busy cleaning. Fortunately, Rosa helped me and was very polite. She was my server and blessed me. Saying hello to a customer should take precedence over cleaning. It only takes 5 seconds to greet someone. Choosing kindness makes a huge difference and changes the atmosphere. I gave it 4 star because of how Maria carried herself. I give Rosa a 5 star for her kind and professional attitude. read more

Came in with my family and the waiter Josh was a excellent host/Server!! He came in and checked on us multiple occasions and we had a great time!! Denny's needs more people like Josh read more

If I could give 0 I would. We ordered from a nearby hotel. We went there and they said they didn't have our order, that it was the other Fremont location. After driving to 3 Denny's, we called back, and found out our order was placed in LV Nevada. Why? When we called the location next to our hotel, with an address? After finding this out, we wanted either our money refunded, or made for us. The manager then stated he has to talk to his boss to see if they can make our food or give our money back. The people in the call center obviously do not know what they are doing, and also refused to give us to phone number to the location since the number they use is not a direct contact. Save your money, folks. It should not be this hard to order breakfast. Now we're minus 5 meals and have to see if we can even get our food. read more

If it wasn't for the polite & very detailed server, i would minus 1 star. Why? It took more than an hour to get our food. There was not many people. I'm not sure if it's because of Covid. read more

Was charged for my order and never received it will never order from Denny's again One of the worst experiences I have ever had

Horrible service. Not once did our waiter come to refill our coffee mugs and to top it all off they lost our order after waiting 30 minutes. I'm guessing the mishap was too much for our original waiter so a new waiter had to come and take our order again. And still no coffee refill after we asked. read more

THOMAS best server ever! We really enjoy his service, and always request for him. He's such a a kind soul, pleasant talking with him. Service is always amazing from him. The food here is also always delicious! And the deals are fantastic! read more

The reception lady was rude. food was bad. When we entered the restaurant, there were a group in front of us and since we don't see a log book, we tell the lady at reception that we're party of 3, but she said the group in front of us was here first, we try to explain to her that we know but we just try to let she know we are party of 3, but she still repeat "They were here first." Don't understand why she keep saying that, we weren't demanding a table !? We got seated a moment later, order 4 items from the menu, but the food took almost half an hour to the table and the waitress still miss our order of nacho which took another 15 minutes. yet the fired chicken too dry and too salty, nacho look like a mess..... Will advice all friends to avoid this restaurant when visit in Monterey Bay for late night food. read more

Terrible service. No one greets you when you enter. They couldn't give me a time frame for the wait. Ended up leaving.

I have been in this mostly empty Denny's for the last 90 minutes. It took 15 minutes to be asked what I wanted to drink. Another hour to actually get said drink ( a glass of chocolate milk), and they let us know they were just getting started on our meals. Again... 90 minutes in to this dining experience. Could not recommend this Denny's to my worst enemy. If the manager is scrolling through these reviews right now... we're in the corner booth right now. Please bring us our food. read more

The only place open 24 seven I got here at 5:57 AM to be told that the chef could not take one more person he was leaving...

The food was good. The service excellent. However the bathroom was dirty and no toilet paper. Thankfully there were seat covers.

I would have given a minus rating if I could! We were back from a roadtrip and chose to go to Denny's as most restaurants were closed. When we were taken to the table, the seats and table were wet after being cleaned. The short waitress with blue streaks did clean the table after I pointed out the water and promptly hurried away. Next, we were kept waiting for half an hour after being seated and the waitress didn't even bother to check at our table for water and food. She made no eye contact with us either or apologize in case there was a rush. She attended to some people who arrived after us, and they were served food. We left the restaurant after 30 mins and she didn't even notice. Please do not come here, people here aren't trained well. Worst experience ever at Denny's!! . read more

Simply uncleanliness, dirty floors, waiting times for breakfast too long considering sitting next to kitchen. Kitchen staff has no communication with the kitchen. Waiting staff take on to many tables allowing food to get cold or be taken to another table. Half orders sent to table waiting 5 minutes plus for remaining order. No one is assigned to specific stations and waiting to pay the bill. Uneven tables, dirty towels in cleaning tables. Board of health needs to close this restaurant for health reasons. read more

Very disappointing. They were behind in the kitchen and told us it would be a 15 minute wait. We asked to wait at an empty table, but were told no. We were to wait 15 minutes on the bench, then get seated and wait another 15 minutes at the table. Very rude and unaccommodating. We left and went down the road to another Denny's, where we got excellent service! read more

2 of us arrived at 8:30 a.m. & waited 10" to be seated while 2 parties paid their checks, then waited 15" for coffee. Another party seated AFTER we arrived had their order taken before us. We noted a faint unpleasant odor, couldn't identify with masks on, later when leaving my husband identified the origin coming from the men's restroom, said it smelled like raw sewage & the odor was drifting into the restaurant. read more

If you want something quick, go next door. Very slow service. Food is alright. Again very slow service

Went there for lunch today and had to send my food back it was so bad, not much better the second time. terrible food and the restaurant was dirty. This was one of the worst Dennys I have ever been to, will never go back again. read more

Terrible dirty tables servers touching hair with hands that are serving food. This pot roast full of grease ordered salad which came after the grease don't eat here! read more

Denny's - More grease than pot roast terrible. Ask for salad never got it terrible - Diners Near Me - Monterey, California

Horrible customer service, we were ready to order then the man said " hold on we are busy" DONT GO HERE!!!!! read more

Went in for Breakfast with a few coworkers we all order omelets. Our server (Edith) brought the food my plate missing. I ask her she said that the cook is working on it. She never came back to check on us or anything (I'm still waiting on my food). My coworkers half way done already I go up to the front as the server if my food was done. She had then told me the cook was barley starting on it. Told her to cancel it as I had to be back at work. All she said was " I'm sorry about that" very sarcastically and rude. All around bad experience. And I come to Dennys weekly during the evening shift and never had any issues. They are amazing! read more

First off I ordered off of DoorDash. The easiest way to see the menu and the easiest way for the workers to get the orders right. Not only did it take them an extra 35 minutes to get my order to me, but I stood there asking for help that whole time and nobody could give me a simple answer. After the long wait and horrible customer service, I look in my bag and they put the completely wrong burger order. If you're in Monterey and need a place to eat when everywhere is closed, please go to the other one. This place is not worth the wait and for sure not worth your money. read more

Thanks! for the Free Birthday Grand Slam Breakfast! I appreciate your generosity and kindness. The sizzling sauteed breakfast platter was delicious. (See Photograghs) The place is very clean and tidy. Remodeled interior is comfortable. Service is friendly and efficient. Parking is good. read more

5 Stars for Dennys? Read on...............Typical story for Denny's - wasn't headed there, but ended up there. Lucky us! The staff was extremely happy, efficient and responsive. One can always tell when the management is tops - asked for the Manager (Justin Rea) and thanked him personally. The food was tasty, hot and delivered quickly to us and everyone around us. Too bad that old reviews don't lose their weight with age. Seems like Denny's (300 Fremont Street according to his card) is doing it right. read more

very good service excellent food and our server very friendly and attentive thank you so much for your service

very good service thank you Rosalba we have a grate time and excelente food we like a lot the sirloin and eggs very delicious

The service was fine (and quick at 4:30 on a Sunday the morning), which you'd think is all there is to review about a Denny's because, c'mon, it's a Denny's. They're supposed to be the same everywhere. But one thing did make this place stand out - looks like a saturday night tornado went through it. There was paper and napkins and things everywhere. Wandering drunk zombies returning home from the bars perhaps? Weird. But also funny. You need to work on your cleaning, but with the cheerful dark-of-the-morning service it evens out. read more

Bad service and gave check before finishing our food do not recommend never coming back here

We woke up late this morning, and didn't want to deal with a more formal breakfast - we were in a hurry to get to Concours, and wanted a basic dash and go...but quasi-real food. So Denny's was a few blocks away, and we made the call. I admit, I haven't been in one in 15 years - that said, NOTHING has changed. Same menu, same waitress cloned (no matter what Denny's you go into in the morning, it's always the same somewhat overweight middle-aged woman who clearly doesn't appreciate her employment status). But the coffee was good, the oj was real, the eggs were good, the toast was cold (a Denny's requirement, from what I remember), the sausage was microwaved frozen Jimmy Dean, and the price was exactly what I'd expect to pay. So if you're starving, need real (albeit basic) food at 8am on a Sunday morning, you simply won't go wrong with Denny's. read more

Great menu. Always consistent service and atmosphere. Cinnamon plank cakes are bomb. For lunch, BBQ Bourbon Burger yummmmm.

We sat for 20 minutes until we finally ASKED for service, then waited an hour before food arrived. There were only 3 other tables seated at the time and 4 servers 1 hostess ans 2 cooks. One cook out of uniform with an uncovered beard and jewelry on, and someone serving with their purse still around their shoulder. Our food arrived about an hour after we ordered some cold and others burnt. My food wasnt even made to order. Then waited 20 minutes after my family was done eating to eat my food. Then we all got stomach aches before we left. We all live in seperate homes so it definetly came from the restaurant. Then the bathroom has no TP and one toilet clogged. We received our full bill 2 hours after our initial arrival. read more

Had the Santa Fe skillet, wife had scrambled eggs. Both were good. Coffee was good. Always reliable. Yelp failed my order with this Denny's when I went to pick it up. Manager was nice and through in some pancakes w/o charge. Nice! read more

Food was good and hot . they packed everything for our togo order with everything included napkins forks jelly butter everything was very nicely done. We had the lumber jack slam . the eggs were perfect most time they are not done right. Hash browns just a little under done but the pancakes were very good. read more

I had breakfast here on July 12, 2019. Our group ordered the banana chocolate crepe. The cream was perfect. I've eaten at the Dennys in Oakhurst, Ca and they filled the crepe with icing and it was greasy. The breakfast was returned. They definitely know how to make them here. Our group also ordered the double berry pancake breakfast and it was delicious. Our server Mauro R was very attentive. Excellent service. We will be back next time were in Monterey. read more

best place to come to when its 3 am and you've been out on a bender. one time a homeless man puked all over his plate and started slurping it back up, cant recommend enough. staff should probably be paid more. read more

The location across the street from the hotel we stayed at is why we came here for breakfast. The service was S-L-O-W. The kids loved their meals, but the wait time to be seated, order, and get the bill was over an hour for a quick breakfast! I'd highly recommend visiting the cafe next door where prices are higher, but the organic food & service will be better! read more

Denny's on N. Fremont. I must say the place was super clean, many tables are removed but we choose to sit in a booth. Our waitress was wearing a mask & very clear about how mask wearing goes inside. Like you don't wear it when your eating but if you get up to use the restroom or move around you must put it back on. She was really very nice. My burger was good! The onion rings were excellent, delicious and not greasy. The food was fresh and good clean fare. I like the window booths read more

It sucks when you're a tourist and are driving around looking for a place that is open to have breakfast. Yes, I need a GPS something. Santa Claus, make note of it please!! Anyway, we drove around and found this Denny's...food was oblahhhh, it took like 45 minutes of waiting at our table for someone to come and take our order..they weren't that busy, but our waitress told me people called in sick and she was the only waitress for the whole restaurant. We felt really bad for her so we tipped her well, but everything just sucked. read more
