My teenage son and I went for dinner on Christmas night (2025). I ordered a pancake grand slam meal and was later told they didn't have any more of the particular topping for that style pancake. My hash browns were warm in middle but the texture felt as if they were under cooked. The two slices of bacon were thin, fatty and basically transparent. My son didn't have any complaints about his meal. The server Brooklyn was very friendly and attentive. I added on a milk shake and slice of pumpkin pie as we left. The pie was sub-par. I've had better from the local grocery store.

Denny’s used to have the best T-Bone steaks. Well seasoned juicy even when cooked well done.
Ordered on Christmas night was in awe of the wonderful workers who decided to work that day so I tipped the young lady who took my to go order a $5. Got my order, got home to discover the person who cooked the food forgot my toast, sautéed onions, the cheese on my scrambled eggs and my well done T- Bone steak looked grey, was tough, dried out like meat that sits out too long then cooked, no flavor AT ALL. NONE.
Called immediately no answer, called again got an answer, was put on hold for a few seconds then hung up on, called back phone went into double dial messaging then someone finally answered and passed the phone to another girl in which I couldn’t hear due to static. Told them never mind i’d call back in the morning because they stated they were closed.
Showed up this morning was treated like royalty and food was replaced everything perfect except the steak. It was the same quality as the night before, no seasoning, tough, dried out not like a well done steak more like a left out to dry then threw on the griddle and warmed up, OR threw on a semi hot griddle and pressed down real hard on both sides until all the juices were completely drained then threw in the container. It didn’t used to be this was in all the 20 years of me going to Denny’s. I should’ve listened when my daughter refused to eat her T-Bone steak from that location claiming it was nasty, grey and rubbery.
So all in all they’ve lost their way or their cooks who knew how to cook a good T- Bone steak and is stuck with cooks who haven’t been trained properly which sucks due to the cost of their T- Bone steaks.
Great customer service. Waitstaff is always friendly.

Had a really great time at Denny’s. Our server Layla was awesome, super nice and checked on us a lot. She made some really good shakes too, probably the best part of the meal. Everything tasted great and the service was on point. Would definitely come back!

Patricia took amazing care of us and was an absolute joy to be with. We immediately felt like we were family welcomed in after a long drive. Our food was brought to us fast and hot and the conversation was delightful. We will definitely be back to visit and will be sure to ask for Patricia to make our visit memorable once again.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to dine in the Twilight Zone, allow me to recommend this particular Denny’s. The restaurant was basically empty—so empty, in fact, I started to wonder if I’d missed an evacuation order. But no, apparently everyone else just had better instincts.
Our waitress was… let’s call it “creatively forgetful.” She took our order, vanished, came back, forgot what we ordered, wrote it down again, and still managed to deliver a completely different set of dishes. Honestly, the commitment to unpredictability was impressive.
The food came out in waves, like a tasting menu designed by someone who’s never eaten in a restaurant. One person got their meal. Then another. Then nothing. Then something else entirely. Some items never arrived at all—perhaps they’re still cooking. Hard to say.
But hey, at least the place was quiet. Silent, even. Eerily silent.
Two stars, because we did eventually get some food, and the chairs were comfortable enough to sit in while waiting for the rest of it.
Okay so i don’t usually write reviews, but after my visit to Denny’s, I felt morally obligated to let you know that Jason the cook is an absolute culinary legend. From the moment my food hit the table, I knew something special had happened in the kitchen. The eggs? Fluffier than a cloud that overslept. The pancakes? Perfectly golden, like they were kissed by the sun itself. The bacon? Crispy enough to restore my faith in humanity. My waitress, leyla was great! Thank you dennys!

Very good experience. The food was good and the service was very good. Aiden was our waiter, he did a very good job and checked up on us. He was very attentive and polite for a young man.
