This location is such a toss up. There’s an older Mexican man server that has worked there forever and is wonderful. There’s a larger gal with rosy cheeks and the cutest hair updo that has also worked there a very long time and she is stellar as well. If these one of these two aren’t your servers…good luck. Go during traditional “breakfast” hours and it’s usually staffed appropriately. But outside of that small menu they will have 1 waiter for 6-10 tables with no support staff outside of the kitchen. It’s so stressful for them and you wait a long time and often can’t ask for extras/changes if needed since they aren’t around. Decor for the holidays is always beautiful. Parking is abundant. I’ve gone early early morning hours and had very rude/lazy staff tell me and my partner that they were “out” of anything we ordered (white bread, cookie dough pie, and other items). It’s usually clean and I’ve never gotten sick after eating here so there is that!

$$$ The food itself is typical IHOP...not bad, but certainly not gr8. Server was a little slow to respond. Took quite a while to get the bill, but also not terrible. Very very nice guy! Total gentleman, I appreciate him working on a Sunday regardless. The PRICES... that's what killed me! This is NOT Ruth's Chris! We had to kill some time waiting for somebody to get out of the hospital so I found an IHOP close by. It's officially the last time I will ever go to IHOP. Just me and my 14-year-old daughter 2 pancake slams, a tea and a soda: just under 50 freaking bucks! For pancakes! Not steak, not chicken... pancakes! PANCAKES! Shoulda paid $3 more & got country fries STEAK! $$$

The food at this Denny's is just regular Denny's food. Not amazing but still good. Servers at this location are generally VERY nice. I usually come after work so very late into the night and theyre always friendly.

I asked for more rare than medium. They brought me well done, over done, my side dish, wings etc seems like they added a lot of salt to the Tabasco. Had to show the waiter what medium rare looks like. She said you should of ordered rare. I did? Yes it's Denny's, but other Denny's know the difference. I couldn't finish my side dish. But maybe next time, they will get it right.

This place totally sucked. Food was cold. Service was slow. I never got my silverware set. I had to get it off another table. The waiter was very forgetful. Granted he was a bit old. I had watched a worker mix the Gravy for the biscuits and gravy and a big bucket with cold water a whisk, and some gravy mix. And to boot, I had just received my bill for the food. And mind you I was still eating And I had gotten up to use the restroom. The waiter who was waiting on my table, He and I saw each other as I was walking to the restroom. When I get back, my table was cleaned up. My bill for the food was gone, and I’m standing there, puzzled and confused and Annoyed. I go to ask the waiter where is my food? He said I don’t know someone clean up your table. I asked him why did it go? I was not done eating. He said I don’t know. I forgot you were here. At this point, I’m really annoyed and I just wanna leave. I ask him if I could pay for my food. And he said yes, and he still remembered what I ordered but he said I forgot you were here. Don’t ever come here this place totally sucks.

Andrea was so lovely and nice. I don’t have family here in San Diego and Andrea made me feel like I had family here at Dennys. She even said to me “your face got a lot more color to it just after eating the salad” this ment a lot to me because that’s why I came to Dennys. I have been feeling very sick lately and everyone has been telling me that I’m stressed out and I need to eat a good hearty meal. Andrea noticed this in me and I just want to say I love you Andrea and thank you so much for your hospitality and good nature you made me feel like I was home with my mom. Happy holidays to everyone at Dennys
