This Dennys is dreadful. Be ready to be put on hold for an hour. Your foods gonna be undercooked and cold and the best part you’ll have to wait another hour to get it.

It’s Denny’s. We were visiting my wife’s 93 year old mother who could not visit often enough, lol.🤪 I will say this, it’s diner food but it was better than I remembered. Good omelettes, pancakes 🥞 hash browns and coffee ☕️. Had a few healthy(er) options. My m-i-l really enjoyed our visits so it was a win. Good service. Looked clean.

Extremely Disappointing and Discriminatory Experience with Server Nicole.
I came to Denny’s after church to celebrate my best friend’s birthday, and what should have been a positive experience turned into a very uncomfortable one due to discriminatory treatment by our server, Nicole. When I ordered my omelet, she asked only me if I wanted avocado and jalapeños, despite my friend ordering almost the exact same meal she wasn’t given the same offer. When our food arrived, she once again addressed only me, apologizing for only having ketchup at the table and offering me hot sauces like Tapatio or Tabasco—again focusing only on me. Had these recommendations been made to both of us, I would have assumed these were common requests. However, the fact that she directed these options solely at me and never once offered them to my visibly ethnically white best friend made it clear I was being singled out based on my ethnicity.
The situation became even more inappropriate when I politely asked for the bill. Despite me clearly requesting it, Nicole handed the check directly to my friend rather than to me or placing it in the middle of the table. This made me feel stereotyped, as though she assumed the white person in our party was the one responsible for paying.
As someone who is half Mexican, I found this behavior offensive, uncomfortable, and unacceptable. My friend also recognized the pattern and was equally disturbed and uncomfortable. So we took the rest of our food to go. After this odd experience I won’t be coming back, which does sadden me because I have always celebrated my anniversary with Dennys for years but now I’m too uncomfortable to continue doing so. If this type of treatment continues unchecked, it raises serious concerns. For example, I would hate to think that if I were dining with my husband, who is Asian, Nicole might assume he’d like chopsticks instead of a fork. When you look at it from that perspective, it becomes clear just how odd, inappropriate, and discriminatory this behavior was and is if it were to happen to other ethnicities.
Please retrain Nicole on how to appropriately address and offer menu recommendations equally to all guests at the table, rather than singling out one person. Additionally, when a guest requests the bill, it should be placed in the middle of the table—not handed to someone who did not ask for it. This experience was deeply disappointing, and I strongly urge management to address this immediately to ensure all customers are treated with respect and without bias.
Thank you and to Dennys management, do better!

Good food, reasonable prices, great service. Best fries in the whole Bay Area! I had a steak dinner there for $22.00 — delicious, well prepared. Salmon salad with a large piece of wild-caught salmon was great. Wonderful avocado cheeseburger, not to mention their slam breakfasts, which are of course their specialty.
Food was super fresh and delicious.

Two of us came in here around 10:00 in the evening on a Saturday night and there was one waitress who was also the cashier and was also doing some beverage preparation. The restaurant was half full so she could not handle the crowd. People were waiting to check out, people were waiting for a table. People were waiting for their food. It looked like there was only one cook in the kitchen and he was working his tail off. Why does a major corporation not have enough people on the staff? The food was not bad but the wait was intolerable. Also the restaurant was in the low 60s in temperature it was freezing cold. I'm sure that helped the waitress who was running around trying to do everything, but it was very uncomfortable for us and I noticed other people wearing their coats. This Denny's needs help.
