Great service! Good food!
Great service! Good food!
absolutely was the worst service we've ever had at this Denny's. haven't been here for about a yr, but used to be 3-5 times a week regulars. this business does work with offenders trying to get their lives together, but the current staff (most especially the kitchen cooks, food preps etc) were ABSOLUTELY foul. The language, carrying on, inaccurate serving, hair in food, sloppy prep, laziness, old fruit served brown, eggs served brown, and pancakes services soggy with cold icing...read full review

Denny's Restaurant has historically been a good place to eat, especially for breakfast, with meal combos that used to be enough for two meals. It was also appreciated for being open late, making it convenient for those working evening shifts. However, recent experiences suggest a decline in food quality and portion sizes, with some customers noting that the hash browns are now thin and sparse, and the eggs have been reduced from three to two. Despite these changes, prices have stayed the same or increased, leading some to feel that the food no longer offers good value.
Service quality varies across different visits. Some customers have praised the staff for being kind, helpful, and providing excellent service even during busy times. Notably, a server named Cynthia received high praise for her genuine care, ability to handle multiple tasks, and her memorable, friendly attitude. She was recognized for her professionalism, remembering customers' names and preferences, and going above and beyond to ensure a positive experience. Such dedicated staff members stand out as a bright spot for the restaurant.
On the other hand, some experiences have been less positive, with reports of severe understaffing leading to overworked employees, and a less pleasant atmosphere caused by loud and rude behavior from kitchen staff. There have also been comments about the ordering process, with some customers feeling pressed to order drinks too early, which diminishes the dining experience.
Overall, Denny's offers hearty meals and has staff members who genuinely care about customers, but recent issues with food quality and staffing suggest there is room for improvement to restore its former reputation.
