  • 5/5 The Sask A. 8 months ago on Google • 163 reviews
    I recently dined at Denn's restaurant after a quick airport check-in, and it was quite the pleasant surprise! Despite the lunch rush, we received a warm welcome and were promptly seated with menus in hand. The kids' menu had some fantastic options that our boys really loved. We placed our orders, and although steak wasn't available at the time, they upgraded us to pork tenderloin at no extra cost - a pleasant surprise. The food was not only delicious but also hearty, and the kids were thoroughly satisfied. As a thoughtful touch, they provided crayons and activities to keep the little ones entertained. Overall, it was a delightful experience, and I'd highly recommend it, especially if you're near the airport.

    So finally we went to Denny's for breakfast. It was amazing experience. We ordered pancakes, skittles, sandwich, smoothies and it was all so good. The place is next to highway so lot of people coming in when they pass by. We had to wait for 10 minutes as it was fully packed with people. Our server Marylene was really sweet. Helped us place the order. The place could have better interiors and can be bit more clean. Nothing major but could be better. Overall really happy with our visit..

    Aa dennys goes, best once I've been to yet especially the service. Here I sit on a Thursday early morning having my loaded veggie omelette, and fruit, and this waitress "Monika" is on the ball! Esp for being the only one on shift and it's steadily busy. The food is standard for any other Dennys but the prep and quality is the best of all the Dennys I've seen. Atmosphere is standard. But very clean. Don't get me wrong ANY Dennys would never be my first choice if I had options, but if I had to, I'd chose this Dennys over any other. Bonus info: New menus came out yesterday, SO THEYRE NOT STICKY AND GROSS!! So if you like a good clean menu that doesn't leave residue of questionable origins on your hands, this is your Dennys!!!! But their prices DEFINITELY went up a little (not suprising)

    My wife and I went here for lunch on Sunday afternoon about 1:30pm. It was very busy, they said about a ten minute wait. About 6 minutes later we were seated and a waitress attended almost immediately. Good service for how busy they were. Server was on the mark for coffee refills and took our order on time. The food was fresh and well presented, served hot. I had a veggie skillet and was satisfied with the taste, I would definitely order it again. The grand slam eggs were ordered over easy and were corrected cooked which is often hard to get at a restaurant. The restaurant was clean, the service was friendly and attentive. I’ll be coming back another time for sure. Price was about what you would expect, not a steal but getting the quality you pay for. We got to watch traffic on circle drive, I suppose that would not appeal to all but it can be entertaining.

    Our server went above and beyond, we asked to be moved to a quiet area as we didn’t wanna be around the busy area was kinda loud, no problem put us in a good spot and still was able to keep an eye on us and was really attentive, He was an East Indian guy with short hair, wish got his name so I could give him credit, we were there on the night of Jan05/24 1am

    Easton H is a great server. He’s very friendly, and always had a smile on his face while serving. He took my order in a very good manner of time as well he made sure I had enough coffee & I liked everything. I enjoyed coming back to this location for breakfast as I ate here last night for dinner. I also had great customer service from Charis last night. she is amazing and I loved having a conversation with her. Both of them deserve 10 stars for a great customer service! The staff here are very friendly I can say. As a customer who is satisfied, I definitely would come back to this location. I recommend coming to this location you will not be disappointed with the service or food. Thank you guys for the good experience. I’ll definitely be back for the remaining time of my stay in Saskatoon.

    Exceptional Service from Monika at Denny's I recently had the pleasure of dining at Denny's, and I must say that the service provided by Monika truly stood out. From the moment I entered the restaurant, her warm and welcoming demeanor set the tone for a delightful dining experience. Monika's attentiveness was exceptional throughout the entire meal. She took the time to explain the menu options, provide recommendations, and ensure that my dining preferences were met. Her knowledge of the menu showcased her dedication to customer satisfaction. Not only did Monika excel in her service, but she also demonstrated efficiency and professionalism. Despite a busy morning, she managed to handle multiple tables with grace and poise, never compromising on the quality of service. It was evident that she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about the well-being of her customers. One aspect that truly impressed me was Monika's ability to anticipate our needs. She was prompt in refilling drinks, checking on the table, and ensuring that our overall dining experience was enjoyable. Her friendly and approachable nature added a personal touch to the service, making us feel valued as customers. Overall, Monika's professionalism, friendliness, and dedication to providing exceptional service truly set the standard for what one should expect from a server. She is undoubtedly an asset to the Denny's team, and I highly recommend dining at this location to experience her top-notch service firsthand.

    Went in with a party of 8 including 2 small children during a busy Saturday morning. We had to wait for a table large enough for us, but the wait wasn't too bad (10 minutes) and was no longer than we had been told to expect. Once seated, we received menus and coloring materials for the kids. Service was prompt and friendly. Our food came with no errors and was in time to prevent fidgety children. I enjoy Denny's breakfast choices and as usual the meals were well prepared and hot on arrival. Our server kept an eye out for us and promptly refilled drinks and helped out as needed. Terrific service.

    Great service and great food. Good value. The team at this Denny’s made me feel very welcome and like I was a guest at their home. I was really needing a good meal after a long 70 hour work week and they delivered. Thank you Caitlin. I really appreciate you and your team. Peter

    Had country fried chicken steak. Found hair in my mashed potatoes. Chicken was more like pork. Veggies were good, but I got food poisoning from food. Our server whose name was Xander was super nice 👍

  • 5/5 Jimmy B. 10 months ago on Google
    Went there today for kids eat free Tuesdays, I was greeted at the door upon arrival, server was monika, she was quick to ask if I I needed a booster or high chair and made the rest of our time here a pleasant experience, quality checks and all. I ordered the t-bone steak, which was cooked to perfection. I asked for a medium rare and received it medium rare, which was definitely a bonus in my books. I was also really impressed with the atmosphere, very clean. I'd definitely recommend this establishment for the whole family.

    My first time in Saskatoon and my boyfriend and I came here for brunch before our travels back home and had absolutely exceptional service! Staff was incredibly friendly and our server Ryley went above and beyond for us. Not to mention the food was amazing! Best Denny’s I’ve been too in my experience!

    Every year we go to Denny's for my free birthday meal. This year, I was unable to go on my actual birthday because we were going to be away. I phoned the Denny's on Idylwyld Drive and asked if I might be able to go in a day early due to the circumstances. They said, no problem, come on in. Management was very kind to make this exception. My husband and I went and as usual, we found the food to be good. The service was also excellent and we even spoke directly with the manager who came by to chat with us at our table. Our server, Charis, was friendly and attentive. We always find the food there to be tasty and prepared quickly. We enjoy going to Denny's at any time to enjoy their good food and service. I think Denny's is often overlooked for some reason but it really shouldn't be. The food and service are always good and the menu selection has a wide variety of offerings. The next time you want to go for something other than fast food, consider this Denny's. You'll find the food to miles above, the service to be good and the wait isn't long.

    I ordered the bacon cheddar tots to go and it wasn’t too bad! Kinda wish there were more pieces for the price but I suppose it’s acceptable. It came with two dip (queso I think the manager said) and he asked if I wanted sour cream with it (no charge I think) so that was nice of him. Denny’s always a hit and miss so I’m glad this time it was good!

  • 4/5 ILLY 1 year ago on Google
    Overall a pleasant experience. I like Danny's always and the food is always good! The only part to be improved is the waitress to pay a little more attention to the customers request: I asked for water without ice, and she brought me a glass of ice with a little water.....

  • 5/5 Maya T. 2 years ago on Google
    Had the best brunch today at this Dennys location. Matt, the manager made sure we were taken care of and our server, Skylar was awesome!! My kids loved her too. Food was great and you can't beat the price!! Definitely going back soon!!!

  • 1/5 Alexis W. 2 years ago on Google
    Very slow service. We ordered our food and we waited and waited. We sat and waited for at least 20 minutes total. We ordered an appetizer too, the waitress went to check and never came back for 10 minutes. When a server finally brought our appetizer he said it would be another 10 minutes. So here we are going up in our total wait time with little service. 10/10 would not recommend unless you have nothing but time to sit and wait. Would suggest you have a snack before hand.

  • 5/5 Marcia P. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a birthday lunch there, management came over and wished me happy birthday and checked on the table personally. Wow what service! Also as per suggestion of the waitress, cheese is delicious in the shredded hashbrowns, I'll never have them any other way again! The crepes were ultimately my favorite and so delicious 😋.

  • 1/5 DeerFat 2 years ago on Google
    Skillet with pork in it. When we told them to not put any bacon, ham, or pork we got a dish with pork in it without knowing it had some, more then half the dish was left when we saw something that seemed like it was pork so we asked the waiter if it was pork, the waiter said "I don't know" and we had to then ask a 2nd time and they showed us the menu again just to end up asking the chef. They just told us sorry and ended up still charging us in full. If you decide to eat here make sure you get what you asked for.

    Went to Flying J’s Denny’s with my girlfriends for brunch!! The food was amazing! It’s under new management and he came out, said hi and asked how everything was. So nice! The staff were great, it was super busy but the food! So good!

  • 5/5 Kathy A. 2 years ago on Google
    I hope you can tell by my smile that this new item Chicken Addiction Bowl was, in fact, very addicting! (I did taste it just before this photo and had to get a photo before it was all gone.) I hope it stays on the menu! The manager Mathew and the friendly staff took good care of us. We love Dennys!

  • 5/5 Leigh S. 1 year ago on Google
    Our server, Daniel, was very polite and helpful, without intruding on our conversation at the table. Rayna, the hostess also was pleasant and obviously wanted our dining experience to be a good one. Above all that, the meal was really good! To management; these people and the kitchen staff would be reason enough to patronize your restaurant. Keep up the good work

  • 5/5 Kevin H. 1 year ago on Google
    I went here a few weeks ago with some friends. It was the first time I had been to a Denny's and let me tell you it did not disappoint! The food was amazing and well priced, and it came reasonably fast despite how busy it was. Our server Skylar was excellent too! Very nice and gave helpful recommendations. Excellent service, excellent food, I can't recommend this place enough!

  • 5/5 Fergy N. 1 year ago on Google
    I was very impressed with the fresh salad I started with before my pot roast. No chemical after taste you can get sometimes when lettuce hasn't been rinsed properly. I had to tell the manager personally how impressive my meal was for a restaurant chain that may typically come with lower expectations. Bravo Frank and staff.

  • 5/5 Florence J. 1 year ago on Google
    It was very busy. Denny’ had just lost a lot cooks from the kitchen. They were dealing with new chefs. It was a long wait for our food but Keira was amazing. Going above and beyond to keep us informed. Very nice person. Left her a good tip to help make her day.

  • 1/5 Sarah P. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was as expected. Service was non existent. Waited for over 40 minutes for a refill on coffee which never came. There was only five tables occupied including us. All other tables even the ones that came in after us were served and out before we even got our food. Several times we got up to wave the server over and he turned around and walked the other way. He purposely ignored our table taking the long way through the empty section of the restaurant to avoid us. When we mentioned the wait for the coffee refill nothing was said, not even a sorry. There were no other servers working at the time. We left without getting desserts or ordering extra drinks as planned. Unfortunately while I recognize it was only one person, I likely won’t be back because the service was unacceptable and the fact there didn’t seem to be anyone in charge to speak to was frustrating. While I have visited this location before I will likely give my business to the other locations in the future.

    I had a lovely visit. Katie was very kind and super lovely and attentive. She took care of all my needs amazingly! She was so quick with her sevice that I don’t even have any plates left to take a picture of! I finished my food and my table was cleared as if by magic! 10/10 would come back for Katie!

    We had a great experience. We had a child with us who ordered the Mac and cheese, thinking he was ordering the main meal, but got the side dish and was disappointed. He explained it to the waitress and she solved the problem. Happy kid.

    The staffs are so nice and accommodating. We’re supposed to use our gift card to pay for the foods that we will order but there was a mistake when they activated it when my mom’s friend bought the gift card last time. The manager said that we can order anything and it will be on them. We had a wonderful dinner tonight!

    Soup was as cold as its outside they bought another but on the side of caution I didn’t eat it living in a truck it’s a little far at 2 am to have dress and run to the washroom. Other than going to bed hungry the grilled cheese was edible .
