This review is specifically for the server named CHY She is absolutely the most attentive and friendly server we have ever met! Everytime we go to this Dennys she is amazing! Orders are taken within minutes of sitting down. Drinks are brought to the table promptly and food comes out so quickly that it is still hot from the kitchen. She is great just clone her for every Dennys and you'll be set with a staff of great servers! Also the manager is very nice and helpful! read more

Okay, let's get it straight here: This is: Denny's They serve: Denny's food They're open: 24 hours Your expectations: moderately low, but you still expect some quality to the food and service . . .and you'll get it here. Yes, it's Denny's, but $6 plus drink, tax, and tip will get you a decent and filling breakfast plate at 9 in the morning, 3 in the afternoon, or 12 midnight., and that ain't bad. Our server was friendly and helpful. If all you're looking for is Denny's, this Denny's will do just fine, especially if you're on the road in town at 10:00 at night and all the other restaurants around have already closed. read more

Looks like I'm leaving a second one star review...we came here for a late night snack, when we walked in the stench was terrible. Amanda, our server told us that there was a homeless man who had an upset stomach in the rest room. Later, my fiancee went to the restroom and said it didn't smell at all in there at all. Truth is, it didn't smell like fecal matter but more so sewer drain. read more

Worst service ever. I am so sick of paying for restaurant dining and getting shit service. The sign on the door says free WiFi. They didn't even apologize for not knowing the password. There was no WiFi. read more

This is a chain restaurant so there are no specialty recipes or new things going on. So, The focus should be on customer service. That is where a typical chain restaurant should shine. That being said we were here for 2 hours--1 adult and 2 kids. There was no line when we walked in and several staff members were walking around grumpy and complaining about other staff members and customers. We still waited about 20 minutes to be seated. Drinks took another 20 minutes. We ordered appetizers and food. The appetizers came out cold on extremely hot plates WITH our meal. We ordered an additional side that never came out although remained on our bill. In the entire time we sat our coffee was refilled one time. The restaurant itself seemed clean and inviting but the feeling of the restaurant from every member of the staff, from beginning to end, was anything but. Not a person seemed like they wanted to be there. Staff and management could do well with some training on customer service and timing. Unless someone invites us and says it is great now we will not ever be back. read more

I come into this Denny's a lot on weekend nights. Amanda has been our server almost every time I've been in and always gives us 5 star service. Amanda goes above and beyond for our table every time and you can just tell she's a hard worker. The pancakes aren't bad either! read more

Hour and a half wait. Ugh. Still waiting for food. I imagine it's not easy to manage people no-showing for work but yikes. Bathrooms are dirty and run down. Please get me out of here. read more

Denny's - Sitting outside in a waiting line at Denny's - Diners Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

It's Absolutely FREEZING!!! When asked what tables were open to seat us... Front desk replied "whatever is clean". I counted at least 5 tables in the area near where we are seated that are just sitting empty & nasty. Like people left 20 minutes ago and the tables are just forgotten. The servers aren't even trying to clean them they are just walking and standing around like everything is all well and good. We had to ask for silverware. They did adjust the air some. Got my food and it's NOT HOT!! This is REDICULOUS! Owners and management should be ashamed. Soooo... I complained to the GM. She apologized and is redoing my order and comped my table. My food came back HOT :-) read more

Dear owners of this establishment, for the love of god PLEASE FIX YOUR SEWER! I'm currently sitting here and it smells horrible. Like someone took a huge crap on the floor next to my table. Our server was amazing and the food was great. However, I won't be returning to this location until you fix this god awful smell. It's ridiculous. Trying to eat my meal with this crap smell surrounding me and my food. Not a good combo. You could have had a 5 star review, but not this time. read more

Nothing fresh! I ordered the rib salad, first serve those green leaves are "bad " . By bad I meant it already rots! Avocado is old and getting bad too. The only fresh thing might be the boiled egg. But who knows! I will never come back to this Denny's Besides, we refused to give tips for the bad experience the cashier brought up, are you sure that's how much you want to tip! Yeah, more than I wanted! read more

Mateo was our server and he did an amazing job! Food and price was great!:) We definitely will be back when we're on this side of town! I got the Grand Slam Slugger my handsome boyfriend got Moons Over My Hammy and my son ordered Grand Slamwhich ...all yummy! read more

One of the best Denny's I've been to in a while. We were helped right away and received service in a timely manner. The food came out hot and fresh. We ordered breakfast platters (ultimate skillet) and was very delicious. I would recommend this Denny's as a great place to relax and enjoy your time with company. read more

Denny's - Ultimate skillet - eggs, sausage, mushroom, potatoes and deliciousness - Diners Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Worst experience ever at a Denny's. Stood for 5 minutes before anyone even recognized I was there. Waited forever for server to show up. Needed to use the washroom which was locked and the person at the counter nonchalantly said we're not sure where the key is. Left before my order came they can eat the shit they made. read more

9:45 on a Saturday morning and we had to wait 10/15 minutes for a table for 5. When we were finally seated it was in a room by ourselves full of empty tables. We had to wait for that?! The hostess couldn't figure out how many adult menus we needed if we needed 3 kid menus. Then she couldn't figure out how many silverware after that 2 adult menu and 3 kid menu debacle. The service was so so slow. I actually had to leave before the food arrived. I will visit the Broadway/Priest or Baseline/I-10 location from now on. read more

I love this place! I'm currently a student and I frequent this restaurant for studying and they are extremely patient, allowing me time to study before ordering. The waiters are great, but my favorite is Max, so ask for him. Thank you staff! read more

Do not eat here! We came to breakfast and they wouldn't take cards. Cash only. Seriously???? Do not eat here ever. Zero is my rating. They did nothing for us after we got up and drove down there. No coupons, nothing. Who carries cash anymore???? Disappointed. read more

We went to Denny's 2 nights in a row. Both nights max was our server. He has the best customer service and does a awesome job! He was so nice and friendly! The food was great too! read more

JENNIFER is the best 4ever. I have an allergy to milk and gluten and Jennifer made sure I didn't swell up, so that's awesome. I didn't die, and the food SLAPPED. 10/10 would come again, Jennifer is absolutely amazing. Best waitress ever, come just for her!!!!!! read more

This Denny's isn't even worth one star. It is absolutely the worst Denny's we have ever been to. When we arrived we were greeted by a stench that some sort of air freshener was attempting to overpower. That aside there were only 3 other tables in the entire restaurant occupied. Needless to say, it was NOT busy. It took 15 minutes for the drink order for our party of four to be brought out. We immediately ordered and it was another 40 minutes before our food was brought out. Only half of my husband's order was brought out. We had to wait another ten minutes for the rest of it. The food was luke warm at best. We waited nearly an hour before everything arrived to our table. We were only offered refills once. This Denny's is a disgrace to the name, and we will definitely recommend that our local family and friends go elsewhere. read more

Can't go wrong with Dennys breakfast ! I usually get the Chicken fried steak and eggs ! So good ! The Gramslamwich is an also must try ! The maple bread is awesome! read more

Denny's - Cali club pretty yum ! - Diners Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

See all

I used to come here a lot, no more. I was literally raising my coffee cup over my head, hoping someone would bring a coffee refill, as I watched the passing parade of waiters/waitresses. What happened to the old days where they took pride in professional service, working for a tip? Each passing waiter/waitress had "the ostrich effect," hiding their head in the sand-looking downward-as they pretended the cup was not visible. I had to literally walk over to the prep area and ask my waiter for a refill. Tip? Absolutely, spoil me, I'll leave one next time read more

My mom placed a phone order at this 24/7 Denny's location at 10:15pm. I picked the order up for her on my way home and when I entered the diner it smelled like old dirty mop water. The server by the name of Valerie L and her coworker were standing at the register ready to greet me. "She said, your here for the double burger etc etc. Your mom called the order in" I said Yes, that's me! She told me the total of $12. & some change. I take out my card and input my pin. It takes a while but it comes back with a server error. Before Valerie went to ring me up she had another coworker calling in on the phone to talk to the manager. She puts the person on hold she tells the other guy upfront with her to run really fast to the back & tell the manager that she was on the phone for her. Her and I remained in the front she asked me to try my card a few more times. I entertained her request because I was here to pick up food for my mom. Admits the server error messages, she is chit chatting about this employee on hold in a negative way. She was completely unprofessional. "Spilling all the tea" A small lady walks up from the back and I assume she's the manager because at this point I've already told Valerie that "since she doesn't know what to do in this type of situation. She needs to go get her manager and tell her that the server is down and card payments aren't working. It doesn't matter what cc I swipe this is a server error" So as this lady walks up. I smile & say you must be the manager. Your server is down and card payments aren't working. Her trouble shooting tips were to try the other register & we both informed her that read more

The manager on duty was a very nice woman who really went out of her way to make sure I had a good Denny's experience. I ordered a club sandwich with ranch and it was delicious. Thanks for being kind. read more

That was the worst experience I've had in a long time. Waitress had four tables already served could not greet us with a good morning all she said was it'll be a while.... after 15 minutes of not being seated or even offered coffee we got up and left... no one was even visible other than the patrons. SMH. Very disappointed.. shame on you Denny's for hiring poor, unfriendly help read more

After stopping at another Dennys and being told they didn't have coffee we came here, got coffee and breakfast. Good service and they were super busy! Shout out to our server who seemed to do every job in the place! Latina Wonder Woman! Thank you for being there like Dennys always is. read more

I am finally writing a review on this Denny's, after seeing these other reviews it makes me think I'm not crazy.... THIS PLACE SMELLS LIKE STRAIGHT WET DOG!!! It truly grossed me out while I was trying to eat I even kept smelling my coffee to drown out the awful smell!!!! YUCK!! read more

I came here with my friends and had to wait an hour to order once I was seated. The manager got angry at us because too many people came. Would not recommend. read more

Got a mobile order here the other night and it took effing forever. It said online it would be ready at 359am it is now 430am. Absolutely ridick. I understand it is late and had kind of a large order I suppose(3 dinners two sides and a milkshake not that large) but ctfo(come the f*** on). Not only are they taking absolutely forever but one of the servers, Amanda is a total bi- I mean total rude lady. (Gotta watch the b word. #me too supporter. Sorry ladies) But really.... idk if Amanda is rude to everyone or just mobile orders but she rolled her eyes when I asked for a glass of water. She was also super rude to an ubereats driver too..... okay so I got my food in the middle of writing this review and totally figured out what Amanda's problem was. I get my food and she hands me a receipt so I look for a place on where to put a tip and couldn't find one. So I asked if I could add a tip cause I left my wallet at home and she said seemed a little taken aback but said no only cash and can't add it to the receipt. So okay that is kind of a valid reason to hate mobile orders so I'll add a star because it still took effing forever. Sorry Amanda. Also shoutout to the other super cool chick that was working to. She seemed down af. read more

I sat for 15 minutes before I was even greeted. I sat down at the bar. It's been another 15 minutes and numerous waiters have walked by and ignored me. Won't be coming back here, absolute shitty service. Unbelievable. Doesn't even deserve 1 star read more

Went here for breakfast and had a great time! Our waitress, Chy, was awesome and very attentive; one of the best waitresses I've had. Thanks for the great service, definitely will be back! read more

I have been by this place many times and finally stopped one day. I had Breakfast on a Saturday morning. My server was Maxwell. He was adorable and very professional. I was happy I had gone in.Food is not the best but, it is very inexpensive, so no complaints here. After such a great experience, I thought I would go back for lunch. Since this time it was a week day Maxwell was not working, so I was given another waiter. He tried, however yelling at me from across the room ,did I need anything else was not professional at all. I know he just did not know any better. Please do not discuss your personal lives at work where all the patrons can hear. It is bad Business. Perhaps Maxwell should be teaching the others how to behave when they are at work. I had gone in for a late lunch so there was only 3 other tables in here. All the more reason not to put your business out on the street. I am sure I will be back. But, I am hoping to get Maxwell or someone similar next time. Bathroom is clean and lots of parking in the lot. read more

I tried to call in a to-go order here. I tried calling five times it never was answered so I drove to Denny's to place my to-go order in person and now that I'm here waiting for it outside I see the general manager outside smoking a cigarette just about the whole time I've been waiting for my to-go order. Good luck with a manager like that. read more

Imagine putting in a pick up order at 10 AM for your family I Christmas morning. You get there at the scheduled pick up time for your food as your family so he wakes up and they're excited to eat and the order is not ready. Not that big of a deal except when over an hour goes by with all the promises that your order is being figured out and you watch 30 other orders get picked up and you see people that sat down and then leave before you even got your food, changes your entire morning are you going to spend with your family. Everybody was nice I'm not complaining about that but I didn't really get any apology even though I didn't complain or bitch at anybody. And the fact I got no money backFor waiting over an hour for my food because of their mess up pisses me off and ruin my morning. Think twice about ordering online from this place and stick to DoorDash for Postmates. Merry Christmas to everyone who reads this! read more

This location was terrible. It smelled rotten inside the dining area like sewage and it took over an hour to get our food! It was the longest I've ever had to wait! read more

Don't usually have problems with this Denny's but recently there were 2 hairs in my pancakes. Yes in the middle of cutting it I pulled them out from the inside. They were nice enough not to charge me and make me new pancakes. read more

Upon arrival my family and I walk into the restaurant and are over taken by the smell of a shit filled diaper. That alone took our appetite away. We decide to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt and still eat there. We get to the counter to be seated and stood there for 10 minutes while the restaurant was very slow. After the said amount of time, the host came from the back area smelling heavily of marijuana. We were sat in a booth in the front of the restaurant where the service was less than acceptable. Our server took our drink orders and then proceeded to the back with the host who was high and began socializing. 10 minutes later we receive our drinks. After receiving our food we began eating, we found bugs crawling on the table under the plates. At this point we couldn't wait to leave. We get to the front counter where a homeless male was loitering in the lobby. Remember the lobby area already smelled of dirty diapers, thus homeless guy is not helping. Needless to say we will not be returning to this location. read more

Couldn't order togo on the phone, would have to go into the restaurant THEN togo than wait. Kinda defeats the purpose.

Saturday morning breakfast. .no wait. Had Britney as a server. She had our waters and our order in under 5 minutes. Our food came out in about 10 minutes. Pretty good considering that its early on Saturday am. But this place isn't packed? Anyway the food was fine..it is Dennys so dont go crazy. read more

We walked in it smelled so bad like sewer and we walked right out and went to another Dennys. Im not able to say on there food as we couldn't stay as the smell was so bad. I would be open to trying again as maybe they were having a sewer issue,but there is now way we could stand the smell. read more

Have eaten here before, but today will be our last. Waitress has been inattentive, ice tea tasted off, food was not cooked as requested. It's extremely dusty and there is crayon on the booth dividers. The prices on breakfast for two are higher than they used to be. We'll stick with mom & pop diners from now on. read more
