I've come here twice to redeem coupons that were sent to me via email from the Denny's Rewards Program and I always have issues. The first time I tried to use a coupon, the QR code didn't go through. However, the man who helped me at the register reluctantly acknowledged it. The second time was a birthday coupon and I even showed the waitress the coupon before I ordered and told her I wanted what was listed there to redeem it. She gave me something else and I didn't realize it. Then the same man who helped me at the register the time before said the coupon didn't apply and I ordered wrong. I told him that I had shown the waitress my coupon and tried to order what was listed and he refused to acknowledge it. Worst birthday reward. read more

Kaylee was such a great server! Very attentive to our large party and super nice! We came late and were very well taken care of which was super awesome! read more

Good service, manager was very accommodating and wait staff are all very friendly! Good study spot for UCR students

The waitress was rude talking about I couldn't share my food with my girlfriend and I'm paying for good service and that's not good service it doesn't say that I am not allowed to share my food with anyone else at all that's just so rude and disrespectful to say that or something and I'm paying for it so I'm not coming here for the service anymore read more

very yummy food decent prices and servings. doesn't feel hectic was sat down quickly, very clean and spacious

Shoutout to Hailey ! She was on top of it super sweet and made sure we were happy want to come back forsure got the bacon avocado cheeseburger and was to die for read more

Gissel was an excellent server especially under the circumstances of restaurant being extremely hot having to work under those conditions is cruel and inhumane but she smiled through it. Food was good but I couldn't fully enjoy my meal because of the uncomfortable feeling of being hot. I would not come back here again because who wants to come from outside heat into a place to eat thats as hot as it is outside read more

Awesome service with Lydia she was very attentive on our service. Was there for anything we needed

Claudio was our server and he was very attentive. Our service was good, the food was warm and fresh. Thank you!

We had Daniel in the morning. He was very nice :) the food was fire. I like the new caramel stuff.

I just had a fantastic breakfast experience due to the incredible quality customer service from Lydia. My family got in the same time she clocked in. She wasted no time and hit the ground running going over the call of duty to serve us. From her caring personality to her impeccable timing,not once did we had to ask for anything because she was on it before we even thought about. I'm extremely grateful for you. Thank you Lydia! The food tasted even better because of you. read more

Whoever was the lady manager today March 5th, around 1pm needs to be fired. So incredibly rude. My party had to leave due to a family emergency and she wanted to us to pay for food we've been waiting so long on and never received either way. She was so unprofessional and kept nodding her head and gave so much attitude. She didn't even hand us the cash back she left it on the counter and walked away. We paid for the hot chocolate and coffee. Yet the coffee was cold once we got it but no one had checked on us for so long. Do better. read more

Stefany is honestly the greatest server I've ever met, she was so sweet and gave us great recommendations. She showed us what a great time Dennys is. Stefany is lovely and charming. Stefany loves animals. Stefany is the lebron of servers. read more

My partner and I usually love going to dennys for our little dates and the end of last month we decided to go to this one instead of our usual spot, and were unfortunately very disappointed. After ordering we were waiting for quite a bit of time about 30 - 35 mins and then one table over who was sat way after us got their food before us. And another 15 - 20 mins later the server comes out with more food and realizes our orders got mixed up and ended up on the other customers table. We get it mix ups happen and we're usually very understanding but the way it was handled was honestly kind of disgusting. Our server was like "oh my God your guys orders got mixed up" and then tried to serve us the food that had been sitting on the other table for 20 mins. And tried to ensure us that the other customers hadn't touched it. But neither of us knows that especially if she had just realized the orders got mixed up. We asked her if we could get it remade and she seemed a bit unwilling but said yes. And afterwards pretty much avoided our table read more

Me and a few friend of mine came here Sunday morning around 12:00am and the service and food was horrible. There was only one waiter so I thought. It would take this waiter almost an hour or two just to get our drinks and another one hour or two to get our food. Every time we would see him he would be flirting with all the girls that were there. Once we received our food. Our food would be undercooked cold and soggy. We asked for the check and he took 30 minutes and we had to tell him again to give our check. The security guard was as well telling us where to sit which I kind of found odd. read more

Lydia G was amazing! She kept our drinks full and was very accommodating. The food came VERY fast and fresh. I had the strawberry stuffed French toast and it was great. Not too sweet and the strawberries were fresh and not mushy at all. My husband had the country fried steak and everything. Really happy with this Denny's! It was really quiet and our service was fast without feeling rushed. We came around lunchtime and they had a nice playlist going on the radio too. It was very clean inside too. This is the best experience I've had at a chain restaurant in a very long time. It's so refreshing read more

The Grand Slam breakfast with a soft drink is now over $21! Two slices of bacon are basically one piece cut in half. Aside from myself there was one other table occupied. I think the huge price increases have taken a toll on this place. I can't imagine I'll be back anytime soon. read more

we had an amazing experience at denny's! from the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. our server, kaylee, went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. she was friendly, attentive, and made us feel like valued guests the entire time. the food came out hot, fresh, and exactly as we ordered--absolutely delicious! it's rare to find service this genuine and thoughtful, but kaylee truly made our visit special. we'll definitely be coming back and recommending this location to everyone we know. read more

I come to Denny's probably once every quarter with a party of 25+ at 5am. Even though they have 2 waitresses and 1 chef on staff, They work well to get food rolling out as quickly as they can while maintaining friendly service. - My go-to order is the Country Fried Steak on the value menu. While it is always way too oily, I love the flavor of the potatoes, meat, and gravy. - - The sunny side up egg always comes out perfectly cooked. - The ribeye SUCKS! I wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt but it clearly is very low quality and not worth the price. The texture is as if the meat has been freezer burning for years. read more

Came with six people around 2 a.m. on Saturday, November 11th. All six of us ordered food. I asked the manager for ranch. He said it would be additional charge. Told him we're spending about $60 and can't one Ranch. He said no, that's their policy. Considering how many places have that as a policy but will bend the rules considering the circumstance or amount of money being spent, he said if I was unhappy with it I didn't have to tip him. Pretty off-putting to be a manager. Could have just left it at it's the policy. I'm a business owner and also have policies but under certain circumstances would take a small loss to gain the benefit of more business. Anyways, the bill was $106, charged for ranch, I haven't been to this location in over 5 years and won't be coming back. read more

Come here all the time the service is great and so is the food! We got Yahaira as our server and she super efficient and nice!

My family has been coming to this location for years. The service and the food have always been great. Fresh and made to order. This time around I saw the tow truck 3 times. The first time picking up a car. Yes they have signs in the parking lot, but the waitresses would go around and ask if we were driving a certain car and then they would speak to someone and later the car would be towed. When I was paying a young man came inside saying my car was towed. Honestly I didn't eat comfortably because I had to keep looking outside the window just in case the tow truck would repo my car. Dennys you have too much parking and half the time it's empty! 3 stars read more

Good service from Lydia our server and the food and service was good and the server was great to us and others

We came in this evening, tired yet antsy. Sheree was friendly, approachable and consistent in her service at our table. She happily suggested a few drinks as she seated us, remained patient when I wasn't quite ready to order - being pregnant currently I've had one of those "I want everything" kind of appetites! Ha! Thank you University Dennys and Sheree! read more

This is the worst experience I am deeply disappointed by the treatment my party and I received at Denny's. We were valid customers dining in the restaurant when our car was towed. Despite our attempts to resolve the situation with the manager, we were met with hostility and baseless accusations. Details: On Friday, February 23, my party and I discovered our car had been towed, so we went to Hamilton's Towing to retrieve it and attempted to dispute the charges. We showed our time-stamped receipts as proof that we were dining at Denny's at the time of the towing. When we called the restaurant to speak with the manager, she claimed she had asked around the diner to identify whose car it was. However, we were never approached or questioned during our meal. Manager's Response: When I mentioned this to the manager over the phone, she accused us of picking up our receipts off the ground, despite not knowing what we look like. She spoke to us in a disrespectful manner and refused to acknowledge our valid patronage, even though our bank statements and receipts clearly show we paid for our meal. After I asked for her name I was hung up on. Conclusion: Overall, this experience was incredibly frustrating and disappointing. We simply wanted confirmation from the manager that we were indeed patrons of Denny's so we could dispute the tow. Instead, we were met with unprofessional behavior and unjust accusations. I hope the management at Denny's takes steps to ensure this kind of treatment is not repeated in the future. read more

Denny's - Diners Near Me - Riverside, California

The service here is horrible. I do not recommend anyone to come here find another dennys to go to. When we first walked in we waited 10 minutes for anyone to even talk to us and get us seated even though they clearly saw us there. When we got seated our server Brenda was being rude to us and when we wanted to order she just walked away and when we called her over she just laughed. As one of my friends was paying for his food she proceeded to say a racist comment in spanish thinking we wouldn't understand but we actually did. This behavior is unacceptable because right as she said that the manager laughed. Something needs to be done about this as this behavior should never be tolerated and accepted by anyone. And the vibes in here are horrible just don't come here there's so many better locations with actual nice people who aren't racist and make rude comments about their customers. I wish yelp would let you give 0 stars bc this experience was the worst. read more
