And you can order anything, at any time of day! My super bird sandwich (turkey, bacon and cheese-i nixed the tomatoes) with fries was just what I wanted at 8am and Denny's delivered. That buttery crunch of the sourdough bread... oh yeah, it sounded and tasted good. It came with a generous portion of perfectly cooked wavy fries-but you could substitute seasoned fries or onion rings for an up-charge. This was a flavorful, filling meal. But I had to order the mozzillas, too. The menu described them as giant mozzarella sticks and yep, they are! We're talking big ol' ooey, gooey, with a long cheesy pull... and massive!. Marsha and I got the giggles over them. I couldn't finish them-and she brought me both a to go box and little lids for the marinara sauce cups. Fabulous! It was so clean and cozy in here. Lots of big booths, tons of tables and counter seating, too. The decor is warm-with an updated retro feel. They had a "Mother's Day" tree by the register (and yes, you pay at the register) There's a rewards program and tons of parking. They're open 24/7... and I'm so glad I stopped in, for memories and a meal. It gave me all the feels. Thanks, Denny's on SR 60-you filled both tummy and soul. I'll see you soon!

We also got a side of biscuits and gravy to share. The five of us had enough left to feed another couple of hungry people. The waffle and pancake were perfect. The Benedict was a plate cleaner. The platters had perfect over easy and over medium eggs, crisp bacon, Generous hash browns and a choice of toasts, both of which we got were delicious. The real star of the show was the side of biscuits and sausage gravy. The biscuits were crispy on the top and perfect in the middle. The gravy was scrumptious and seasoned perfectly for a group with varying tastes. Definitely going back. Our only regret is that most of us don't live in the Tampa area! The restroom could use a little attention. Lots of paper on the floor.

Absolutely terrible experience. The biscuits tasted like they had been sitting around for a couple…read moreof days and were anything but fresh. The "fresh fruit" was clearly not fresh, and the soup tasted like it had been made the day before--and unfortunately, it showed. The quality of the food was extremely disappointing. What made the experience even worse was the management. There was a complete lack of concern about the quality issues, and the way the situation was handled was extremely unprofessional. When customers are paying for a meal, they should be able to expect fresh food and management that actually cares about addressing problems. Sadly, this was a very disappointing experience, and based on the food quality and the poor management, I would not recommend this restaurant.

There used to be a Village Inn at Providence Road and Lumsden Road, but it closed shortly before…read moreMel's Diner opened in that spot. This new location is about a mile away, at Lumsden Road and Providence Lakes Boulevard. It's located in a busy plaza, nestled between Starbucks, GameStop, Tijuana Flats, and several other shops and restaurants. Parking is plentiful and easy to find. The restaurant is newer, very clean, and a bit smaller than the previous location. I've visited twice already, and both times it was fairly quiet when I arrived. I don't think many people realize it's here yet, even though it's been open for about a year. We were seated quickly, and after ordering, our food arrived promptly and was cooked perfectly. The staff has been attentive, friendly, and welcoming on both visits. Overall, it's a great spot for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, with fast service, good food, and a comfortable atmosphere. Mom and I will definitely be back. Ohhh forgot to add - on Wednesdays if you order an entree you get a FREE slice of pie of your choice! Yummm!

I really loved that they brought the entire pot to the table and let me refill my own mug--this makes a big difference for both temperature and pacing. I ordered the fish and chips, which comes with a choice of side, and I opted for the coleslaw. I was pleasantly surprised when the plate arrived--three pieces of fish! The fish was perfectly crispy and fresh, piping hot (almost tongue-burning hot, in the best way). A bite of hot fried fish with a dab of tartar sauce really hits the spot. I also loved the crinkle-cut fries, especially that they didn't get soggy even as they cooled. Given the generous portion size, I finished the fish and took the fries home. The coleslaw wasn't drenched in mayo, which I appreciated. It leaned a bit heavier on pepper and celery flavor than my personal preference, but it was still refreshing. I also noticed that the far end of the diner has an area with single and double-occupancy seating, along with a row of outlets along the wall. I thought that was a really thoughtful touch--it sends a welcoming signal to solo diners who may want to eat, linger, and even get some work done. Paired with the clean and bright environment, this place is definitely going on my pocket list. One note: the location applies an automatic 18% gratuity for dine-in. I really appreciated that they post clear signage up front and that the servers check with guests to see if they've dined here before--if not, they verbally explain the policy again. That level of transparency made the experience feel respectful and well handled.
