All Dennys rest no longer serve oatmeal which is stupid. Therefore we will no longer be going there after all these years.

Amazing customer service from brenda, making sure we are comfortable & attended us with such a positive attitude.

Food service was excellent as always, customer service is spot on, efficient, and friendly! Special shout-out to Lydia who was absolutely amazing! read more

Denny's is a solid place for your typical American breakfast. The staff here at this one off University are efficient and always friendly! Our waitress, Brenda, went above and beyond to even suggest modifications to our order that would enhance our meals. Great service! read more

I ate here on 8 Aug 2016. At 9:39 or so. Order number 638015. Janice the server was okay. The place was mostly empty. No lines. They don't have many parking places but they are there and reserved for Denny's customers. I came there to try the new pancakes. I found my pancakes undercooked in the center. See picture. I think that the cook slipped that night in rushing to make the pancakes. My order of pancakes took about 7 minutes to get to my table after i put it in. I don't know if that is fast or slow. Ordinarily I believed they had great food. The pancakes did taste okay until I got to the center. I will still be a Denny's customer after this but I will eat at another Denny's. read more

GHETTO....Going to UCR for school, you know there are areas you should not go into, the best rule of thumb is, don't go more that 2 blocks out of the main campus. It is literally surrounded by drug dealers, prostitute, homeless bums, hotels and motels (and I'm not kidding you, just drive on University after dark). This place is ONE block away from Campus, their wait is VERY VERY bad from 6-8pm. I'm not even going to get into the food...it's just like all Denny's, CoCo's and IHOPS, you would get better food, but they are either too far, too expensive, of the wait is too long! read more

I don't know why it has so many bad reviews...it's like every other dennys I've been to...moderately clean, good food, normal prices. Sometimes it takes the staff a bit to function, but otherwise it's fine. In fact, I would have expected it to be super ghetto because it's on university, but I was pleasantly surprised! read more

Wanted a late night snack and some coffee to wake me up and Dennys is usually the only place open. This one was very nice inside and clean. The waiter made me a fresh pot of coffee, kept it topped off. My food came out quick and perfect. Gotta get my Dennys fix now and than. good stuff! read more

giselle provided great service and made our experience at dennys fun and inviting! will be back again

Decided to try out this location & were very pleasantly surprised with the service. Our server Brenda was amazing and quick. Was super helpful navigating the menu and made sure we always had refills. read more

I'll start this review by saying something good: The waitress was very nice. I ordered an iced coffee that was very watered down & I also ordered the Slamburger. The burger was pretty good, until I saw a cockroach on the table. DISGUSTING! I told one of the employees about it and they didn't seem to care. If you're craving Denny's, go to a different one. I've never had this problem at any of the other ones in the Riverside area. read more

i went in to get some breakfast, which was good. overall my service was terrible. My server Consuelo was cracking jokes with other tables but did not check on me once. She didn't give me napkins when I asked for some politely. She didn't top off my coffee either until I asked for my check she wanted to provide service. I'm never the type to be angry because i myself work in the food industry so I understand but i wasn't happy with my service today. read more

Alexa is the sweetest waitress. Always attentive and awesome customer service! Lucky to get her every time we come .

Great food and quick service. Felicia has been our favorite server for over 10 years!

So I got a birthday offer in my email and decided to go get some breakfast. I was kinda excited but still its disappointing to not be able to sit down and enjoy your food during the pandemic (it is what it is- still) So basic Build your own Grand Slam for free! I ordered pancakes, eggs, bacon and sausage. BUT while I was waiting I got a phone call which led me to go outside so I didn't disturb the few others in the building waiting for their orders. Then a homeless looking man walked up and mumbled to other men that were coming and going. He never said anything to me. He started to walk away and I yelled to him "Are you hungry?" He put up his hands in a prayer formation and somehow told me he was thirsty. After waiting for a little longer for food, the man that I assume to be a manager handed me my bag. I asked for a large ice water and he obliged with as much enthusiasm as anyone giving away free food while barely surviving during the pandemic can- I walked outside and handed the entire thing to the homeless guy. lol I said "here's breakfast!" I do plan to return to this location when things are "normal" I hope more people take care of other people. Life is hard! If you are doing "well" (which for me is just getting by), then share! read more

AMAZING! Best dennys in riverside, always have amazing customer service whenever I come here. Lydia is on top of it! She's fast and made sure we had everything we needed. Very nice and funny. Staff is on top of cleaning. read more

Good thing Dennys is open 24 hours. It's certainly a good place for midnight munchies or if you're a gym rat on a budget. There's the $4 everyday breakfast slam that's loaded with macros and I think it's actually worth. My friends and I usually get it after every workout. But anyway, this time my friend and I got a turkey sandwich and zesty nachos and they were bomb. Check out my picture of it. As for the inside, it's pretty spacious and clean for the most part. But, I always get a little bad vibes when I come here though. There's always sketchy people lingering around and it makes me feel unsafe, but it's not Denny's fault I guess. Just a little fyi for whoever reads this review. But anyway, 3 stars because of the service. I was barely given any time to look at my menu, not even 1 minute. I'm not exaggerating. The waiter said he would come back in 3 minutes but my friend and I waited for such a long time and we saw that he was just socializing with other coworkers. We even requested water when we sat down, but never received it. The good thing is that luckily we can pay with the machines on the tables because we waited forever for our check to come after asking for it too. So, my friend and I said "screw it," we wont pay in person, just use the machine and leave. We got tired of waiting. Hopefully they can change this problem and for the guy to stop hugging and talking to other coworkers. I love that theyre having good vibes and spreading some love in the air but this is totally not professional. Save it for later so I can stop waiting for 15+ mins. Would've given 1 star, but the food was alright. read more

Lydia is a great server. She constantly checks in to see if we need anything else. Bubbly personality and provided fast service.

I come to this Denny's often after my 8am lectures. Place is super chill and the staff is friendly too. The place doesn't get too busy and so it's really calm. However, I don't think many people come here because of the parking. Other than that this Denny's is one of the good ones in this area. read more

This has been my go to dennys for a while and im so excited that they had brought out the strawerry pancakes again. I would recomened 100% to try them out! They are served warm. Lydia was also so helpful and always made sure we were doing okay! Never seemed like if we were asking for too much? read more

This place is DISGUSTING I found a thick black hair hair in my chorizo skillet I seriously almost threw up. I let the waitress know and she informed the manager and they took it off my bill. But the fact of the matter is that I was disgusted & I didnt enjoi my meal the whole experience was terrible. read more

Good service. Our Waitress Ruth had a very great attitude attentive. Manger was very welcoming and also very attentive. Will be coming back

Great service! My server, Daniel, was very kind and quick to take my order. Definitely recommend!

If I can give a zero star I would. I am very displeased with the service we received today. We were a bigger party so I understand the wait time would be longer than expected. I have no issues with that. My issue was the manager and the waiter we had today. I've been here before and when they are short staffed they usually let us know and try their best, and that is much appreciated. But today on the other hand, not only was the manager rude but so was the waiter. I am familiar with being short staffed and understand the stress that comes with it, but I do my utmost best to keep everyone happy. Our waiter (Alejandra) was just rude and had an attitude. She was not patient and looked like she didn't even want to be there. Again, we were a bigger party so understand it's not easy to be patient. And we were very understanding since she was short staffed, but attitude was uncalled for. And the manage (Subdo if that's how you spell it) was much worse. When we mentioned how many we were going to be he already looked annoyed and mad. When it came to seating us he just left the menus on a separate table, apart from where we were going to sit and walked away. And instead of stepping in to help his employee with all the order he lets her to do it all herself instead of offering the help. I am very unhappy with this service, and will not be returning since I don't feel welcomed at that establishment. If you apply to a job where you know bigger parties come in, be prepared for the chaos. If you can't handle the stress that comes with it, it might be best to not apply to a place like that. I hate being a "Karen" but I'm sorry the service I received today was uncalled for and very disappointing. Either they get an attitude check or expect many customers to be unhappy. read more

If you order for pick up check your order. I placed my order online and paid so I could walk in and pick up. When I arrived at the stated time the order was not at the counter, no big deal the lady manager Isabel when to talk to the counter guy who said something about my Jr slam then grabbed the food and walked away. I should have checked it when I thought something was wrong at that point. I got home and of course something was missing. I did call back and let them know and the manger was dismissive about the whole thing. I understand mistakes are made but apologize and take ownership. I tried to ask for her name but she hung up on me so I called back later to get her name. I realize now he must have told her it wasn't quite ready and she didn't care enough to wait for the missing items she figured we wouldn't care or notice. I can't say I'll be ordering again from here soon. read more

Denny's is always the spot to go to after a long night out, mainly because it is one of the few spots that are open 24/7. Their skillets always come out sizzling hot and is so good. They cook everything to perfection. read more

Do not come to this location! The servers have terrible customer service. I was with a party of eight and was there for 45 min before anyone took our order. We asked serval times where our waitress was. She told our group she couldn't serve us cause she was off the clock. We got a new server. We complain and he didn't even apologize for the inconvenience. The food was ok...I went to go pay and the hostess was very rude to me. He told me that they do not except coupons at their restaurant. He said I was lucky that the coupon went through. I'm never coming back here again! I'm very disappointed. read more

Came here after down town riverside and it was packed but the host was very kind and very accommodating he was so welcoming and helpful while all the servers sat around he defiantly picked up there slack I would come Back just for him even tho he isn't a sever I would ask for him. By the way it's 7/7/17 time to give out a promotion dennys this kid had heart read more

The absolute worst service I have ever experienced. I would give zero stars if I could. I am going to start off by saying not only will I NEVER go back to this denny's. I will never go back to ANY denny's again. I sat and waited for my daughters side after we were already served out food for 20 min. In that time we needed refills and I sat and waited to be checked on by my server. Finally i was fed up after another 10 minutes of waiting. I got up and went to find my server. When I found her she was doing her prep work so that she can go home. I told her I have been waiting 30 min for her to come back to my table. Then I was cut off by another server which told me she was off the clock and now he was my server. Apparently I was supposed to be a mind reader and know when they switch servers because no one ever came to my table to tell me anything. When I asked to speak to a manager the Male server told me she was on break and I would have to wait another 30 minutes to speak with her. I was in shock, I told him there is no one else in this restaurant I can talk to that is in charge, he said no one else is here. No assistant no one put in charge...We went around and around with him saying he can't help me and no one else could either. He was very snarky and thought he could shut me down and I would leave without consulting someone In charge. He was more Interested in showing off his lame new tattoo on his arm that doing his job. Anyways, Now I know for a fact this is not how Denny's runs things, but this is the second consecutive time that I have had horrible service at denny's. ...another server from a different table had to go tell the manager that a customer needed assistance because that lame tattoo server wouldn't help me at all. He just kept telling me no shes on break for 30 min no one can talk to you. But then.... She finally came over and I think that poor lady was beside herself and that restaurant was running her cause all she did was apologize and try to make me feel bad for how horrible her employees were. Which I did kinda feel bad but if you dont have a strong management you won't have a strong team. I told her I will never be back here and she seriously needs to send her employees to customer service training. So beware when chosing where you want to spend your hard earned money because that was the last cent they will ever get of mine. read more

Their phone is always off the hook so you can't call in an order. Then they've had issues with order accuracy and for dine in services multiple waiters have been inattentive. read more
