    Worst restaurant I've ever been too. Service is extremely slow. The staff argues in front of customers. We were told, "whatever, just sit where you want." Food also doesn't match the pictures.

    Very much like a NJ diner. Varied menu, egg dishes esp. Good coffee. Prompt pleasant service. Get the salmon. We paid $35 plus tip for salmon dinner, egg and meat dinner, one soda and one coffee.

    Food was great! Quick service. Server Makaylee was amazing!! She was on top of her game and made sure we didn't want for anything. Shift Manager, Amber was so sweet! She always has a smile and makes sure we are taken care of!! She makes coming here even better!!

    The food is good, only the texture of rice is a bit dry, otherwise is great. The soft drink can be re-fill as well

    Sorry I never leave bad reviews but this experience is a must in hopes that it is corrected. Arrived about 12 15 pm and we didn't get served until 1 30 pm. There were about 15 tables taken. Potatoes were cold!! Never again will we eat here.

    I had Food delivered from Dennies and gave them 2 stars because the salad and pancakes were excellent. I had 6 dudes that were hungry for bisquits & gravy so I decided to buy 2 orders for each guy which would be around $7 a dude. WHAT A MISTAKE! Pictures 1-3 show two orders along with how thin the bisquits are. (YIKES) Picture 4 shows how big 1/2 order is in my hand with one sausage chunk and around 3 tablespoons of gravy. I'm so embarrassed for Dennies. Pictures 5 and 6 show the gravy I had to make so they would be edible. Bummer Dennies!

    Came in Tuesday evening starving and irritable. Left fat and happy. Short staffed but you wouldn't know it based off of the exceptional service from Jessica and even more so, the manager Carla. This isn't the first time I've seen this particular manager hands on and working just as hard as her staff. Jessica was friendly, fast and just pleasant to be around. Good to see this place is getting some great people on board and hopefully stays that way.

    The service at this location is extraordinary! It was an unexpected gift. The entire staff were welcoming and helpful. We were constantly checked on to make sure we had everything we needed. The waitress said “my pleasure” every time she helped us. The portions are perfect and I was shocked by how good the chicken tenders and my milk shake were. The manager was very inviting and made our visit feel like we were visiting a small mom and pop store. Our waitress, Lil Jen took very good care of us. Honestly it was the best service I’ve received in a long time. Food was great. Menu was filled with great options.

    Went in at 2:00 pm to avoid crowds. Was seated quickly but then no one came to take our order. We sat patiently while we watched our waitress struggle to serve another table. She kept apologizing to that table while two female employees stood at the front doing nothing to help her or other customers. We finally just got up and left. Walked right past the two employees at the front and they never said a word to us as we walked by.

    Even with short staff and just two waitresses we had a good meal. The high points were the pick 4 that I got portions were good but when one of our other party members ordered onion rings seven onion rings were $7. We understand inflation in some prices are going to be higher and this will take some getting used to. What are staff that were serving us was great and the food was amazed

  • 5/5 DeAna D. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best experience I've had in a long time.. The staff is amazing... My server was very kind, she kept checking on me and making sure everything was great. The morning cook Robert was amazing as well. The plate he presented was perfect.. The temperature was just right. The food was great! They get pretty busy at the location but all the staff knew exactly how to handle it.. If I could give 10 stars, I would! Good Job Management!!

    We ordered varying Grand Slams and they were great. Just what we wanted after a long day outside hiking. Our server was kind and efficient. Overall great experience. Loved the French Toast! It was perfect!

    We got good service from Margaret but it took a bit longer than normal because it was busy and she was the only waitress on duty. She really had her hands full but handled it very well. She was still attentive as always.

    I ordered a t-bone steak. The tender part didn't exist it was only a little sliver on one side of the bone the other side was tough I ordered it medium they brought it cooked well overcooked vegetable medley was horrible it didn't have the broccoli it didn't have the bell peppers I ordered a salad I didn't get it until I got the steak I didn't get a refill on my drink it was very dissatisfying.

    Best experience ever! My waitress "Amber" was dressed as a mushroom fairy. The cutest thing for Halloween! Her professional, upbeat vibe created a very happy "experience", instead of just a meal for a lonly old lady. She recommended the super slam. And I have to say, I was not disappointed. Great food, great atmosphere, and most of all, best service 👌. I WILL be back. Thank you for the smile today.

    Great service, great environment, and great food. The food was cooked well and tasted great. The waitress was friendly and attentive. The booths were clean and the environment was very inviting. Will definitely go back.

    We love Denny's but this location was awful. We came in, waited to be seated for about 10 minutes. One other party was waiting at the register to pay. Another party was seated waiting for their order. The entire time 4 staff stood behind the counter talking about how to arrange their work schedules. Another person who appeared to be the manager buzzed past telling us someone would be with us, while she was on her way to return the order for the only seated customers in the place, telling the cook it had to be redone for them(he continued discussing work hours with the rest of the staff). We left...

    Food is good when they have it. Quick to substitute. Employees friendly. Lame excuses for not seating people when several+ tables available very upsetting. Seat us! We know it will be a while to get our food. We can play cards, talk, doddle...whatever! Too many people waiting in entry way. Frequent happening! HAPPY 2023! 🎉 GOD BLESS.

    The food here was great. Asked the waitress if we could steal her cook so he could show other places we stop at how to cook. Great job all the way around. Thank you for a great meal and experience.

  • 5/5 Faith A. 2 years ago on Google
    Service has improved tremendously! Was obviously having a staffing issue for a while, but the service has become so good! Our coffee cups were never below half full. Food was fast, service was friendly. Thank you!!

    Traveling on Thanksgiving...practically empty restaurant (six tables with customers) and staff is arguing who will take the 7 different families waiting for almost 45 min! Edit***we left without eating because a lady came up and started seating others that came in after me but because the manager with turkey hat didn't write my name on list and we were skipped! Absolutely the worst customer service! Servers were cleaning instead of seating customers! 5 walked away while we were waiting! I was prepared and happy to leave our server $100 tip but they missed out on that opportunity! Happy Thanksgiving!

    This is our families favorite restaurant!!! Miss Dani and Miss Lil' Jen always go above and beyond in their service! We love all the food and the atmosphere is so comfortable. We love the music played and the very clean tables. The team there never disappoints.

    I had the Grand slam pick your own four items. The food was good as I always enjoy breakfast from Denny's. The service was pretty nice too and I enjoyed the AARP discount of 15%. I would recommend Denny's for breakfast but I'm not a big fan of their other menu items. However their food is always good so I recommend this place if you need a reliable place to eat.

    Manager in training needs alot more and better training. Host was just standing around didn't seem like she wanted to be at work. Tables were dirty even though management was just looking lost did help all to much . He also didn't get some customers. Slow service waited an hour for food but walked out before food was brought out . . This store needs more staff and Training . If you go good luck

  • 1/5 Julian L. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff was very short handed but there was one waitress eating her lunch at the counter right in front of the reception that kept telling the five people waiting to be seated someone else would help them. The other two waitresses were busy running between tables, counter and kitchen to take care of customers. After five minutes of watching that, I left for the Carl's nearby.
