I had breakfast with my Mom and her friend at this location (hadn't been there in a very long time). I must say, the decor has been updated, everything with the service and food was spot on. I'd like to give our server Crystal a shout-out for excellent service. She was really busting her hump because it was somewhat busy. Didn't miss a beat - remembered a couple of weird things I ordered (without having to remind her), had no problem substituting fruit for my elderly friends, she was amazing. The manager was also excellent, he greeted us when we arrived and thanked us when we departed. 500 stars for customer service, the food was great, reasonably, priced, etc. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience. read more

Kaley is an amazing person. Coffee was full all the time. Lumberjack slam was cooked to perfection. Everything was clean. This is the best Dennys anywhere. Huge thanks. read more

Worst service i ever had and the bill was outrageous for food that taste like it just was out of a box from the freezer, nothing good to say about this place. Very disappointed especially when i enjoy complementing food or businesses. This was just pathetic and having a sick waitress bring your food out while coughing is not healthy! read more

We have been going to Newcastle Denney's for over 20 years. Best place to stop before heading home. Reliable, clean and great service

This is one of several Denny's that has become a traditional Post-Night Out/Backpacking/Causing Trouble stop. As is the case with any Denny's, it's a bit of a challenge to find fresh and healthy options on the menu. But if you come to Denny's hoping to forward your low-calorie goals, you are ruefully misguided. The servers here are always kind and attentive. The Slams are always hot and tasty in that Greasy-Spoon diner kind-of-way. And, as of my last visit, they serve blueberry Cheesecake-Shakes. If taste was any indication, they really do shove a whole slice of cheesecake into that blender with the ice-cream. Delicious! (Also a stomach ache, when ordered as a meal. :D ) read more

I would give it a 1 star, but the staff is clearly outnumbered here. We decided on this Denny's instead of the one in Auburn when coming down the mountain from a snow day. They clearly were understaffed, since our waitress even mentioned it. We were seated quickly, and got our drinks. The three of us ordered pancakes, a grand slam, and sourdough melt. 5 minutes later, a family of 6 was seated next to us. The family next to us received their food after about 30 mins,: salads, meals, etc. I only mention this because we ordered "Denny's standard" food, nothing special. When I asked our waitress, she said "let me go check". She came back 10minutes later with the order of pancakes and the Grand Slam (which looked disgusting. Congealed cheese :(...). My sandwich literally came 15 minutes later, with white bread. I ordered a Sourdough Melt. Our waitress: "We ran out of sourdough". Everything about this visit was wrong. She did not charge me for my sandwich (even though I did eat the limp fries, I was starving) because I DO NOT EAT WHITE BREAD. The restaurant was messy, the bathrooms were gross (2 stalls, one out of order), and the food was not good. I would stay away from this Denny's. read more

It's Denny's what can I say. But this Denny's is a MUST stop when me and my family go through town. Always fast service and the staff is nice. read more

Yes! i LOVE Denny's- don't judge me! This one was awesome! As we sat there, I begin to read the reviews and came across the very disgruntled Logan C and thought- WOW..I walked in, was seated immediately. No more than 3 minutes later, the lovely Crystal was right there giving us the specials and taking our drink orders. I was coming from camping so I just wanted a full rounded meal and fast and boy was it fast! There was 3 of us gals and 2 of us ordered the new Southern Fried chicken and biscuit with gravy and the other the Grand Slam. MAYBE 15 minutes, I am thinking more like 10- our food was there, pipping hot and delicious! The white gravy on top of the perfectly fried chicken tender and fluffy biscuit was right on time! The manager came over and checked on us in between Crystal refiling our coffee and soda before we could even finish! Great service, great food, great vibe (they have a juke box playing old school), but you can play your own songs for a fee. Not sure what happened with Randy k and Logan C, but my experience was the total OPPOSITE! SEE YA NEXT TIME! read more

Denny's - Southern chicken slugger! - Diners Near Me - Newcastle, California

Unfortunately, my car broke down on the freeway so I stopped here to wait for a tow and I received the best service! Becky was so nice and polite and I appreciate the hospitality! Great experience overall and turned my day around! I'll be back!!! read more

Denny's - Diners Near Me - Newcastle, California

This particular Denny's was horrid! Greeted fine at the door, and the waitress got our drinks right away but when the Italian sampler came out the meatballs were cold (felt like they were microwaved), along with the mozzarella sticks. The garlic bread and marinara sauce was alright. My fiancé asked for an over easy egg on his slam burger and when it arrived the egg was cooked all the way through and very rubbery. The paddies themselves were cold and definitely NOT fresh. Made him feel sick after a few bites. The skillet I ordered had some uncooked tomatoes in it. And this wasn't even a busy morning so there's no excuse for any of the food to have been undercooked. The rest of the time we were present none of the waitresses checked on us and we had to go to the front desk to get our cheque. Expected better service out of Newcastle. Very disappointing. read more

We had just gotten in the lobby and the manager told us it was going to be a couple of mins and told us to wait outside....he let other go in and gave them a table first and when i asked him why he gave them.a table first he talked to me with a huge attitude...like yelling at me...worst customer service ever read more

Absolutely the most horrific experience at a Denny's restaurant. Upon arrival; instead of greeting us, the hostess said "have a seat over there!" and pointed to a table. 5 minutes later, she threw the menus on the table. After that, she came by, stood next to us, and didn't say a word. I figure it was in Newcastle, Ca, the service would be better...just the opposite I found out. This is the worst place that I have every been to. I do not recommend it to anyone. read more

The food was ok except I had a cold sandwich and it came on a HOT plate so tomatoes were warm. The back door being open I understand due to out door seating but..... there were flies everywhere buzzing around and on the windows and around us eating. Now that you can eat indoors or if no-one is out there shut the door. Service was GREAT !!!! read more

If it was possible to mark a zero start I would definitely do so. I have never seen such poor service out server Tricia B. Was extremely rude unprofessional. Our order never got back to the kitchen she said and we had a long wait time for it right finally come. She forgot about our drinks I take it she forgot about putting our order in basically forgot about us all together. This location over the pass few years has completely decline in service. We will never return back. FIND STAFF THAT ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT CUSTOMERS SERVICE read more

We used to really enjoy the service and the food here. Today the food seemed like it had sat for a long time, eggs were soggy and our sons burgers bun was falling apart when he tried to pick it up Half of our table got served about 5 minutes before the rest. We watched our server carry our plates and set them down multiple times to correct stuff in computer and to seat people. Rather disappointing as we drive from Sacramento to come to this specific Dennys for great food and service and now left with an upset stomach and my son is throwing up from it. Thanks read more

Wow Denny's has been remodeled!!! It has an elegant hip look to it now! Even the food taste better. They didn't raise their prices!!! Hallelujah for that! Barbie was our waitress She was fast and funny. We have a new friend at the Newcastle Denny's! read more

Visited this location on 5/28/18. The male server ordered the wrong item for me. When he brought it he admitted he ordered the wrong item however he was trying to force it on me to take it anyway. Nope. I reminded him what I ordered and he left. About 5 minutes later, he comes to our table to ask me what I wanted again. Seriously!!! I told him again. About 10 minutes later I notice him getting a drink and leaving the building. Another 10 minutes goes by (mind you my party is pretty much done eating), so I get up to ask about my meal. A manager then comes over to tell me "the server was sent home" and he did not put in my order. Forget it - I don't want it now that everyone is done eating. Also, there were BUGS all over the inside windows. We had one on our table. It was nasty! The manager did comp our meal which was appreciated but seriously --- that's just horrible service and the bugs took it over the top!!! read more

Jena went above and beyond to provide stellar customer service. Food was amazing good job chefs! This is my favorite dennys by far.

Lucky to get that! Manager Rudy is a complete ass! Never again stopping at this place. Can't keep up with customers and just says " gimme one second " bullshit!! read more

Orders usually wrong. No other option today. How sitting and waiting for them to fox the order while my food gets

I come here often because of the time I am awake and need to tell u that this morning was unusually horrible. The service was horrible. Waitress was more concerned with sweeping.floor than anything else. Food was not served together. It was also not as requested. If I hadd an option at 4am on a Friday morning. (8-31-18) I would have chose to walk out.. but I was starving read more

Heading to Reno and decided to stop at this Denny's, we were seated promptly and the waitress was so nice. She was talking to our 1 year old son and he was the happiest little dude. I didn't get her name but wish I did as she was so nice. The manager/owner was also present, very polite, chatting it up with all of the guests. While eating another group of 3 ladies came in and sat at the booth next to us (locals). They were also super nice and made us feel right at home. It was such a breath of fresh air to experience such wonderful customer service. No doubt. It's Denny's. but we would definitely return solely based on the fact that these employees provided great customer service and interacting with the locals was very enjoyable also. read more

Tonight my wife and I had dinner at the Newcastle Denny's they were very busy the waitress was late due to a car problem when she finally arrived she had a crappy attitude my wife asked for a coffee refill we were given a very rudely and hastily coffee refill when we said Thank you there was no you're welcome in return just a snide remark after we've mentioned to that she should respond to customers when spoken to.. Trish needs to be Fired.... read more

Our server Barbara was amazing!! Made us feel like VIPs! Excellent food but even better service!

Went there on the way to Reno from SFO. We sat down to read the menu when the waitress came over while we were still looking it over. Told her to come back Ina bit. She kept coming over time after time even after my wife told her to come back when the menu was closed. Aaargh! So we had tea and the patty melt. Tried to order a loaded baked potato but the waitress said we don't have that. Say WHAT!! We ate left and about three hours later had the s"$*€. Be afraid..very afraid. read more

Been to a lot of Denny's but this is where I've experienced the best service! Barbara was awesome!

I am not usually a Denny's eater, but it was after 9:00 and I was trying to get back to the Sierra's and had not eaten anything since lunch....Denny's was the only thing open. Food was decent and a big step up from fast food. It was fresher and more "meal-like" than the typical In-n-Out stop I usually make. We had a delightful waitress and a good experience. read more

This Denny's had great customer service. Denny's food is Denny's food. When I got home, I have the worst stomach cramps ever. Possible food poisioning? Not sure but, we will go back someday. read more

Best service and great food! Very friendly staff and clean atmosphere. Will definitely be eating here more often!!

Amazing service. The manager Rudy was awesome and very helpful. He has a great staff and our server crystal was very friendly.

My girl friend and I stopped here on the way back to Reno. We were immediate greeted upon entering and promptly at thereafter. Although service was a little bit slow, it was friendly. The food was typical for what you would expect from a Dennys. Our children ate everything off of their plates as did I, but I was starving. We were in and out in less than an hour. read more

NASTY NASTY!! Ten minutes into getting our food we notice an ant infestation on the window above our booth. Our waitress's response to this was say "oh we get sprayed once a month" then walks off. Two minutes later I see them crawling on my 18 month old and no sooner do we see it that he is being bit. We immediately wnt to front to speak to manager and pay our bill. The manager had the same response as the waitress. Didn't take any money off of our bill, continued seating people along this window with these ants. Gross! read more

Worst dennys I've ever been to! If only i could give zero stars! Horrible customer service skills from the assistant manager! She ignored us and then when she refilled my friends coffee she spilled it on the table all over her and didn't even apologies. Then the assistant manager laughed and walked away. They then started fighting with another customer at the front desk of the dennys at the register ,getting in the womans face. Then the woman said she would be complaining and the employee went on about how the woman was stupid to the very unpleasant assistant manager that spilled coffee on my friend. I was shocked, soooooo unprofessional, stay far away and drive on up 80 to the one in rocklin because the people working at night in Newcastle are not pleasant and should not be serving the general public! read more

Very amazing food! The staff were friendly and our service was quick. I really love this Denny's and repeatedly go there for these reasons

This place is so nasty dirty that after we were seated at a dirty table looking around at all the dirty doors and glass we decided to leave. Never going there again read more

Closest food to home and always good. Friendly staff. I love the 2-4-6-8 menu! Good and inexpensive;)

I think this place is OK for a Denny's. Got stuck here one day while the 80 was closed because of heavy snow. It's a fucking Denny's. read more

First of all it took more then ten minutes to get some dam drinks. Second there wasn't even that much people in the restaurant. Third I got a cup of water with lipstick on it. The food wasn't even that good and the customer service was okay not the greatest. I wouldn't consider eating here unless it's your last resort! read more

The staff is nice here - especially the Manager (I don't remember her name but she was middle age with glasses and curly hair). Unfortunately they were severely short handed during our visit with only one server on duty and the manager helping her cover about 8 tables. Needless to say it took about 20 minutes to place our order and another 25 or so to receive it so if you're in a hurry and traveling like we were, you better plan on spending some time waiting. I had a veggie burger thing and it was one of the worst I've tasted. My aunt and father had an egg white omelet and some pancake thing and they said there's was OK. The banana smoothie was delicious also and at 1.99 an outstanding bargain. read more

Veggie omelet was delicious until I got about a quartet or bit more to the end. It was extremely greasy. Waitress started o well its also water from the veggies. This tells me the veggies are frozen, which is not good for an omelet. Besides my eggs being greasy and as well as my toast the red potatoes were delicious. But service can use some work. read more
