I had the All American Slam breakfast at the West Columbia, SC Denny's and it was very good. The restaurant was very clean, and Ms. Hope was very friendly and attentive. I have fond memories of Denny's as a kid and I love the brand. Having said that, the bacon and sausage links were the smallest, saddest looking ones I've ever seen. And I mean that sincerely. They looked worse than what was served in the Army in 1986 at Basic Training. And I mean that sincerely too. Those were the only things that brought this down to a 3-star rating. Please, find a better vendor for your breakfast meats to help rebuild your brand. read more

This place had a 3/5 star rating but I ended up hitting up up anyway, for an early breakfast after dropping my wife off at the airport (not many breakfast options available before 6am). After eating here I felt like I should review as it was a 5 star experience. The waiter (chill dude with an eyebrow ring) came to the front counter as soon as I walked in. Very mellow but polite and very attentive. He waited on me and got everything quickly and my coffee never ran dry. Really enjoyed his relaxed and friendly personality as it created a calm morning environment. I got the lumberjack special. The food was extremely tasty. I'm kinda a yuppie when it comes to food but I will definitely come back to this place for breakfast whenever dropping people off at the Columbia airport. When I was leaving the cook was outside and made sure to engage in wishing me a good day. Oh yeah; and the curb appeal is nice with a clean exterior (something lacking in a LOT of Columbia establishments) and palm trees, which is part of the reason I decided to stop here in the first place. Inside was just as clean and spotless. From staff to the food, this place was easily 5 stars. read more

Food was cold and after we were seated and the server sat and talked with other customers, they seated other customers after us and took their order before us. We were completely ignored by the server while he talked about meeting people on cruises. Would not recommend this place. We were traveling through from out of state. read more

The service was pretty good. We were greeted and seated quickly. We had a gentleman take our order and the food we received was nice and hot and tasty. My husband ordered the brisket and mac and cheese. I ordered my regular veggie omelette and pancake puppies. We also ordered mozzarella sticks. We ate our fill. We have leftovers. read more

I really wish I remembered what we ordered from off the menu so I can list it here in my review, but nevertheless the food was definitely a nine out of 10 The reason I'm giving it a nag and not a full tan is because the fries were a little blonde and I wish they were seasoned a little more but everything else was cooked to perfection The service we got at that time was beautiful and we felt welcomed. Very respectful servers. The area unlike most restaurants was clean before we sat down and they make sure that everything is OK and if need be and it's reasonable, they will adjust your food if there is a problem. Thankfully, we didn't have any with ours. I definitely recommend. read more

I waited almost 45-50 for a burger. It took 15 minutes for someone to even acknowledge i was waiting to place an order and they didnt even have a full house. The burger was good ill admit but just took entirely too long they need to have a better system if they arent going to have enough workers in place. The staff did seem to be friendly given the circumstances but the overall operation suffers as a result of it. read more

Whether it's the smoky pull of BBQ ribs falling off the bone or a tray of golden, crispy wings served hot in the basket, these classics are the definition of comfort. ​An old-fashioned burger remains the star of the show--perfectly seared, juicy, and stacked with all the traditional fixings. From the first bite of a seasoned fry to the last rib on the plate, it's straightforward, soul-satisfying food that keeps you coming back for more. And great polite service with respect. read more

Abbey is terrible. they were short staffed! Almost made me late for my Dentist appt less than five mins away i brought to her attention, my dissatisfaction, but she seemed didn't care too much about it, I called them the next day so that made me have to go down there with a sore mouth, have them make my food over, she wanna know if I still had the food, yes, I did, what does that have to do with anything unbelievable The tables wasn't wiped clean my waitress. She was slow. I don't know what happened to the other black girl.That was really, really good and personable.I guess they must have fired her.But she's the one and also a nice red head girl.They got 2 red hit girls are used to who are really personable and on top of their game.I don't know about this new staff that they have there read more

This place was absolutely amazing from the staff to the food. Came with my mom the other day and we enjoyed our food so much. The waitress was so nice and helpful with my mom's food order as she can't have a few things. The coffee was 10/10! I'm a Big coffee drinker!! read more

Service and food was good , recommended 100 percent , the place is also nice and clean

service was good but i found hair in my food twice, and then my mother also found hair in her food. I won't be coming back

There are some negative reviews, but we have never had a bad experience here. The staff is very friendly. The food is good. They seem to do quite a bit of takeout business. The atmosphere is casual. It's very convenient because it's quick on and off the highway and next to the hospital. read more

I was given pork sausages when I ordered turkey. That's the biggest mistake ever!!! The eggs were not shell eggs which I asked for. Just disgusting. Couldn't eat any of it because pork was there. read more

We stopped on our way to the mountains. Our waitress was a very sweet, young girl on her third day. I could tell she was stressed but she was being as sweet as she could be. Her manager was a great guy and took over for a bit so she could take a break and catch her breath. Wish I would have caught her name. Be kind to your servers people, you never know what's going on in someone else life! Food was good too! read more

Denny's has always been a favorite breakfast spot for me from childhood to adulthood. It is a American diner where you can go in, sit down and enjoy a good cup of coffee, good food and good service. But not all Denny's are created equal. Though the restaurant was clean, the service was slow & underwhelming. The line cook was complaining and yelling at the server for roughly 5 minutes and the server was not paying much attention to her seated tables. I will never not stop going to Denny's, I will just not be back to this one :( Customer experience matters and every engagement can make or break the experience. Disappointed loyal Denny's customer. read more

This place gave me literal food poisoning. When I called the next day to tell the staff, the manager on duty questioned "why would our food give you food poisoning?" Save yourself a day of puking and go get some IHOP. read more

Food was good service not so good busy due to all table not open but it was 10:00pm Only two servers

Went to IHOP on assembly, with my grandkids on a Sunday after Church, the place was a disgrace, so I decided to try Dennys on Sunset Blvd, West Columbia, it seams as if I left the states, the place was very clean, the service was immaculate, the food presentation was awesome, the food was very tasty and enjoyable, my grandkids really enjoyed their food, their plate was clean, my server was a male, forgot his name, he made sure they got their soda refilled to take with them, he was enjoying his work as a waiter, & he his very funny with great customer service skills, make you feel at home, as if he's his there serving you, great sense of humor! He's truly an asset to Dennys, very hard worker! MeMa, Columbia SC AkA - Yvonne Hughes read more

Great food!!! Great service!!! ***bring your own silverware or ask for plastic my silverware was dirty before I even opened it Our waitress and manager said this is an on-going issue they have. So, I would recommend eating here if you don't mind not knowing how well the kitchen is being cleaned read more

Just had a great breakfast at Dennys. The 9 grain pancakes were delicious and Anthony B is the best server ever!

Walked in and there were no clean tables so she said I can't take you bye! Avoid this place even if it doesn't look busy . Very dirty and very very bad customer service! read more

The worst place ever. We ordered for pickup. It took us 30 minutes to get there, it stated our order would be ready in 16 minutes. We waited there for another 30 minutes. The food was cold, they didn't put any cheese on our cheeseburgers. We ordered a cheeseburger pack--for four. We only had three pieces bread. We also found a receipt in our food (not ours) that was over two hours old. I will NEVER eat anything from here. read more

They took 30mins to seat us and 1hr n half to serve us. They kept telling us 5 mins when really it was longer. The food was unprepared when given to us and told us have a good night like shi was okay read more

One star because it is as low as the scale goes. After 10 minutes of standing at host station and being ignored by the two people I saw working, I left and went to Waffle House next door. How busy were thay you ask, I was the only customer. I know they saw me they were sit outside the front door smoking when I drove up. read more

I have always believed that Denny's has delicious food, but this particular location is struggling. The employees act like the customer is an inconvenience, and their customer service shows that. This location is usually in need of a good cleaning too. read more

I had the worst time here I am visiting from Florida and wanted a good place fir breakfast. My pancakes were cold and I saw a maggot on them. They had the nerve to ask me did I want to Change them????? I want my freaking money back ugh!!!!! I meant I was visiting not am. read more

Always had a great service until today. They only had 2 servers. We had to wait more than 30 mins to get our food. When our food came out, my ham was burnt. My husband's omelet was tiny (apparently they ran out of eggs and the manager had to go out to get more eggs) and no salsa even though we asked. I understand they were short handed but the server avoided us when she sensed we were not happy. Further, my husband's English muffins weren't really toasted and the tasted very strange. We are guessing that he received gluten free English muffins - which we did not request. In the end, they did not charge us for our meal after when we told them about the issues we had with their service, but they did not apologize. read more

Walked in at 9:44 for breakfast, no one in front to seat me. Someone came, no greeting, just asked how many in my party...seated at 9:50. Waitress comes at 9:58 takes my order and promptly brings drink (water). I notice the waitress servicing the table in front of me has come to the table 5 times before mine has come back once. Maybe it's because the patrons are elderly, or maybe they're known here. My waitress is nowhere to be found. At 10:20 she magically appears with my order, which looks a bit scary. The hash browns are most definitely not like Waffle House makes. I ordered cheese and onions on them and I get something that doesn't look familiar. The onion looks like some grey matter was sautéed in 'em or maybe they were dropped on the floor, stepped on and refried before loading them onto my hash browns. 10:21 my waitress brings the check and as an afterthought asks if everything's okay. 10:46 (just now) she comes over and asks if everything's okay again. Probably cause I'm typing and sitting here too long and she wants to get her tip. **shrugs** Maybe TJM...LOLBVS. OH, The food is MEH...could be less salty and more visibly appetizing, and appealing. Will try Waffle House tomorrow. read more

Worst service! I know we were 9 guests and our server was nice (at the beginning) I don't know what happened to her but at the time she started bringing our order she was missing 2 (one of those was for my nephew) then she came back and asked my 2 friends what they had ordered, we had to wait 30 more minutes for their food to come, in the mid time my nephew started to cry because he was starving. When finally they got their food, the server never came back to check on us, offer refills or to give us the check. At the end the cook started to help us. Then we had to wait another 20 min just to get the check. Maybe they were short of staff or who knows but she should've let us know, not just disappeared. read more

This is absolute garbage. We came two weeks ago at night and they have these stupid signs saying due to staffing issues they can't do any dine in orders. Well today we go in around 11pm and there are these two employees sitting outside enjoying themselves and we walk in and they still have the same signs up. It's ridiculous. Staff your damn restaurant or close for the night. Last time we were able to eat there there was one cook and one server. When it's late at night that's all you really need when all you get is a table or two at a time. It's just stupid. Do better read more

I have worked and managed enough restaurants that's NOT OK! DO BETTER DENNY'S!! read more

Well it's Denny's. I used to love Denny's, especially the old one, by the airport. This one was alright. There was plenty of room, and the wait was just a few minutes. The place seemed a little disorganized, and the staff were kind of arguing with each other, but our waitress was great. All in all I'd say a good place for people watching. The food is alright, not quite as nice as IHOP, but they do offer an AARP discount, which is nice. The prices were decent as well. The food is good, not great. I'm a sucker for anyplace that serves breakfast at any time. Who doesn't love brinner! read more

Service is horrible. Ordered grits for my one year old when we sat down and they brought it AFTER our food was delivered, which took over thirty minutes. Oh and we were the ONLY customers in the restaurant. read more
