Nadia was super friendly and got my order right and it was hot, I will most definitely be coming back. Thank you Nadia

Staff was nice. If i hadn't seen my email regarding the special pricing she wouldn't have brought that menu to me which i didn't really appreciate. Those strips of bacon were just as much as the meal to the right of it, they were stone cold immediately after she set them down too, $5. Friend got the pancakes, tried a bite, werent bad, just expensive. For what you're paying here you might well hit a ma n pa shop and support local, my slam was 5.99 so that wasn't bad, but god forbid i want an omelette, I'd be paying nearly $20 for something kinda bland. Thank god for cholula read more

Denny's - Diners Near Me - Oceanside, California

The service was absolutely terrible and our food was cold. Sandra did not ask us if we wanted refills ever, and she was nowhere to be found when we wanted them. For like 45 min. Food took forever to come out as well. Airplane room was cool. read more

Came in to redeem my birthday everyday value slam which comes with pancakes, eggs, and spelt type of meat at the end of December . I don't eat meat so I didn't want the meat. I added an order of hash brown. I was sat down fast but that was the only time I saw my server when she sat me down and took my order. Someone else brought my meal. I was never check on, the customer around the server asked if they were enjoying their meal and if they needed anything else. I had ran out of water and never was offered a refill. I was going to to order coffee but my server didn't come to check on me so I couldn't order. I do like how there are a lot of regulars here and it makes it for a very good ambiance. I not sure if I would come back becuase I was just in the area picking up something at the mall. read more

I have never written a review before, but I felt compelled to share what I witnessed today at Denny's. What caught my attention was a gentleman who appeared to be there for an interview. He greeted a woman who seemed to be the manager or person in charge. He politely extended his hand to shake hers, but she completely ignored him. She left him standing there with his hand in the air and told him they were very busy and to check back with someone else on another day. I understand that the restaurant was extremely busy, but I felt she could have handled the situation more professionally and with a little more kindness. A brief acknowledgment or courteous response would have gone a long way. Other than that, food was good and server was friendly and quick. read more

Food was undercooked, order was incorrect, asked for extra shredded cheese on fries (willing to pay) came out with cheese on 3 french fries for 1.79. When asked waitress she said thats just what the cook did. After an amazing experience in buena park, this was a HUGE let down. read more

Denny's - Found ants on the table - Diners Near Me - Oceanside, California

The best Dennys in Oceanside; my kids love this place; The waitress has a lot of patience with children.

Nadia was an amazing hostess! She greeted everyone with a smile, was very friendly, and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Even though the restaurant was busy, she stayed professional, organized, and got us seated quickly. Her positive attitude and great customer service really stood out and made our experience at Denny's even better. Thank you, Nadia, for being so kind and hardworking! read more

I remember going to this Denny's with my family when I was a kid. I've always loved Denny's; I know people like to hate on them but I always thought their food was decent, especially their pancakes and club sandwiches! My go to order was always their club sandwich and strawberry lemonade...yum! Anyway my husband and I came here before our mall trip; my parents gifted me a gift card here so we figured we use it. It was busy but our server was prompt and friendly. I ordered the lasagna and I thought it was really, really good. Way better than that expensive garbage I ate at Giada's in Las Vegas and my meal here cost a fifth of what we paid over there. Not to mention the service was above and beyond. My husband's pancakes were also good and he loved his hash browns and eggs! I felt a wave of nostalgia sitting and eating here and I would gladly come here again if I'm in the area. So glad I got to come here right after the new year! read more

Great food great people serving great cooks and bussers nice hostess. I love the music

French toast and has browns were great. Server with quick and attentive. $11 for breakfast, you can't beat that.

The food was amazing! Our host was really nice and kind. The service was quick and the staff was friendly. The atmosphere was great, as well as the ambiance. Can only recommend! read more

Denny's - Our meal - Diners Near Me - Oceanside, California

When did breakfast become so expensive? 2 pancakes, 2 sausages, 2 eggs and a hash brown (that I wasn't allowed to substitute) $16? Tiny glass of milk $4? They forgot to cook the cheese into the eggs so they gave me a ketchup size container "on the side" even after I told them not to and charged me $1.80. Shortly after I started eating I see a mom and son come in...the kid was SICK (coughing and sneezing) and I could see it immediately. Dennys staff sat them RIGHT beside me when there were tons of other seats available. Of course, whatever that kid had, I caught and have been sick for the past 2 days. read more

THE ABSOLUTE BEST DENNY'S LOCATION!!! We come in every Saturday night after church & receive the very BEST service from Julissa & Alexus!! These servers are very attentive, polite & offer the very best service, as well as making our meal time fun & most enjoyable!! Big Points go out to these Top Notch Servers!! I spoke to the manager Randi as well & it's quite obvious that she takes.... "great pride in customer service as well as the proper training of her employees" It sure shows each time we come in or refer friends to this location for a fun & delicious meal!! Dining here is OUTSTANDING!! I HIGHLY recommend this #1 Denny's location!! read more

Food was late but she was patient with us we had bought food from another establishment ( 2 couples 4 kids) they were awesome to deal with us lol read more

Ellis was our server , he was amazing, the food was good and the atmosphere was nice , really enjoyed our Easter breakfast!

Alexis was friendly and respectful got my order in quickly and remembered my condiments in to go bag . She greeted me soon as I arrived and showed me how to sign up for rewards . Food from this location is always good . I like chocolate bannana pancakes . read more

If you are a hot coffee snob, this Danny's is for you. If you are an eggs over easy snob this location is NOT for you. Since breakfast was on the house for veterans day I didn't complain. The bacon, sausage, and pancakes were all well made. I only got one refill on coffee another would have been nice. A refill on water would have been nice too.I appreciated that the AC wasn't blowing too cold air. It was a good temperature inside. The rest room was clean. read more

Great food and service from Jessica and Kim they both rock! I love Dennys. Come to this location read more

It's breakfast for dinner day!!! Perfectly cooked eggs, hash browns, home fries and toast! Endless coffee!! Although the interior is typical Denny's this place as pretty clean - except for the windows looking out to the parking lot -someone needs to get on those! Our server, Fernando N. Was probably one of the best trained servers I've had a Denny's in a long time! He was prompt l, caring, and was quick to offer more coffee water etc! All w a professionalism that's unmatched! Give this young man a raise - and then let him teach other servers how it's done! read more

I've been coming here since I was a child. I always had a great experience here but today was not one of those days. We ordered chicken noodle soup thinking it will be clear as how it has always been. Once it came out, it looked like absolute dookie... the smell was burnt and I found a small black hair in the soup (my hair is colored). I know it's not the server fault but I'm upset. I'm not mad I'm just disappointed... read more

Talliyah was AMAZING !! She was SO sweet and attentive. I love her ! Give her a raise she deserves it! Thank you Talliyah ! I'll be back soon. read more

This Denny's at Target parking lot has the best running Denny's I have ever visited... The GM Randy was doing everything from to go orders, serv coffee, clean tables and helping everyone.... I was also a GM in restaurants so I see everything...that is going on in a restaurant... Our server Alexis did not say hello or introduced her self But her service was excellent.... Happy 4th America read more

I came here here a week ago a received good service but this week I was in with a group of 8 people and I had said "wow there is no one in here tonight," mind you it is 10:20PM and this Denny's closes at 12AM. The server didn't have a name tag but she had said "Yeah people are using ASLEEP BY NOW!" and has been very passive aggressive toward my group the whole time we were here. The food was okay but the server was absolutely rude. Honestly never coming here again for late night snack after the service my group receive. read more

Our server seem to have difficulty getting my order correct. The other two I were with received their orders, began eating and then 10 minutes nothing for me, 20 minutes nothing, she brought the gravy for the chicken fried steak. Another 10 minutes nothing. My two companions were finished and my order arrive. It was chicken fried steak and onion rings. They get dripped into fryer bam ready. I was never ask if I would like refill of beverage. Went to pay and she was pieced at my tip. I said, even Denny's knows policy is ti serve the entire table at the same time. You acted put out the moment we ordered. Will not recommend or tell others about this poorly run establishment read more

This Denny's does NOT give you the $2,$4,$6,$8 value menu unless you know about it and ask for it. Everyone has a budget, whether a business owner or a consumer. Just another franchisee that doesn't want to play by the rules of the franchisor, being Denny's corporate. These types of franchisees should be eliminated from the corporate structure of the corporation. read more

Teníamos mucho tiempo sin visitar un Denny's y para nuestra sorpresa este no nos defraudó. El local estaba un poco vacío así que el servicio fue relativamente súper rápido. El menú al parecer ha tenido ciertos cambios y eso está fenomenal ya que encontramos opciones que nos gustaron mucho. La comida estaba muy deliciosa y el ambiente estaba muy acogedor y casual. Definitivamente volveremos. read more

Jessica provided excellent service with the most cheerful attitude I've seen in a long time. The food was also the freshest and tastiest I've eaten at any Denny's in forever! Great store, great attitude and great food from a Florida girl. read more

Been here last two days for breakfast- once alone and another with friends. Both times great service and food. Good prices and clean too. Great spot to visit with friends over coffee and also to use as place to wait while getting new tires next door. With my AARP discount on top of 55 plus meals- it's a good deal with all the food prices raising. Couldn't finish my meal either time as so much food! I'll be back again soon. read more

Jessica was amazing and very patient with our group. We showed up with 8 adults and 8 kids and it was chaotic on our part but Jessica did amazing! Haven't been to Denny's in over 10 years but I would definitely come back to this one. read more

Came to have a quick breakfast. Restaurant was fairly busy as it was a holiday. I went to order and asked my food be cooked in oil rather than butter (they actually use margarine). The server insisted they had no oil. I said they must have cooking oil - they deep fry foods. He again insisted that they did not have oil. I said no problem, I'm going to leave. Paid for my OJ and left. You're telling me a place that serves plenty of greasy foods doesn't have oil? No chance. Mostly annoyed at the servers unwillingness to find a solution that worked for me to eat. Will never come here again. Since it states on the door it's an individually owned franchise, not sure if that had anything to do with the staff's knowledge of what was available in the kitchen. Drive half a mile further and eat at broken yolk where you'll be treated like a person read more

Denny's is delicious and the service is outstanding. Happy birthday to Chrissy! Shout out to Johnny and Randy! Thank you Matthew Denny's is the best Denny's on El Camino Real in Oceanside. read more

I'm kind of surprise this place isn't 5 stars. I walked in and was greeted immediately by the host. I'm find her name on the receipt and I'll come back to update. She was amazing! She sat us down and took our order! Super friendly server. She gave us a few minutes to order. My friend and I are silly so we make stupid conversations. The server actually participated in our little conversation. She was so sweet the whole time. I didn't feel rush to order. We also made tons of videos as we waited for our food. We felt completely comfortable and safe space. We got our food and it was really good! I just suggest to skip the white bread. Also ask for butter for your bread, I am butter girly. I took pictures and videos of the food. We also were so happy to be there that we did a little dance. Thank you for providing excellent service and safe space for us to be ourselves! read more

NOTE: 3.5 RATING FOR FOOD AND 4.0 FOR EVERYTHING ELSE WHERE SMALL TOWN MEETS EVERY TOWN On a late Friday evening, we ventured into a Denny's that was dripping with nostalgia for us. Denny's is a classic diner scenario - no pretense. It was hot food, warm smiles, and attentive wait staff. I went with my Brothers, whom I'd not seen in years. It's still one of those places a large family can dine out without worrying about a huge bill. MAKING 5-STAR EXPERIENCES, NOT MEALS This place didn't feed our 5-star dining expectations because that's not what Denny's does. Instead, Denny's gave us a well-lit backdrop of food and families decompressing, sharing stories, and eating together. The restaurant was clean and quiet creating focused time with our families. Our table and others focused on each other, our plates, and unwinding together after the world rips us apart all week. BLUEBERRY PANCAKES (NOT ON THE MENU) Finally, they made me blueberry pancakes with fresh blueberries. The pancakes were hot and the berries fresh. Were my pancakes the best pancakes ever? Not even close. However, those pancakes were good enough to bring my bros and I closer together. DENNY'S DOES WHAT IT DOES - WELL When we left Denny's, we stepped into the parking lot satisfied and reminiscing about all things family. The experience was priceless. I recommend stepping back in time with a few family and friends to immerse in each other instead finding the next great contender for CHOPPED! Sometimes, food is more about whom you eat with than what you eat. So, dine at this Denny's if you get a chance. read more

Amazing service!!! The food is fantastic and so fresh you can tell they treat their employees amazing.

I'm sick and tired of the staff acting like the utensils and condiments are coming out of their personal kitchen. Wtf is the point of asking for a certain amount of condiments online, if y'all are not going to give it to me. I asked for forks for my pancakes and they gave me spoons. Be FOR REALS WITH ME. How do you mess up something so simple. They always forget to add the butter and when you ask they act all offended. They make trouble over STUFF THAT DOESNT BELONG TO THEM. read more

Angelica... she is so sweet and handled this entire place by herself. This Denny's is extremely lucky to have her.
