Just had the worst experience ever at a Dennys. Waitress very rude and did not get order right. Tried to blame it on us to the manager. Said already put order in and could not change 3 orders of french toast to french toast meal (had added each side as al la cart). Meals oredered with toast did not receive toast until meal completely eaten, did not receive grits or hash browns on 3 meals until half of what was brought out was eaten. Six people had water, one had coffee and one dr pepper. When asked for refills, waitress brought out 1 glass of water and the cup of coffee. When other 5 asked for water waitress said " I haven't even waited on that table yet! Will get you a pitcher of water to keep on table, just don't make a mess"..ages at table ranged from 15 to 66 years of age. What an insult to injury. Daughter had to go up to cash register to finally get the toast. When waitress brought 2 of tickets to table, told manager was still trying to figure out the wrong orders on third ticket (1 1/2 hrs. after order taken), then proceeded outside to "smoke". At least 10 more minutes of waiting. the waitress came back inside and ask if we needed anything. When reminded waiting for 3rd ticket, she went to register and rang up a receipt and gave a $6.00 coupon to be used later because couldnot figure out how to "fix " what she had put in. Yes, it was a very busy night after Friday night HS football, but no excuse for rudeness or bad service. The waitress made excuses to the whole section we sat in that she was in charge of. Would leave in middle of taking orders because she would remember what she was suppose to already have done! Our table of 8 would not even had gotten silverware if it had not been for another waitress seeing our needs when food brought out! Manager was not seen in the 2 hours we were in Denneys except for when waitress brought her to table to see if order could be corrected after waitress put it in, useless!!!! The Denneys I'm complaining on in on East Dixon Blvd., Shelby, N.C. which my family has been going to since it has been open. Will probably try The Waffle House from now on.
I was eating breakfast here when i saw the sign underneath the tv with the channels listed. One of them was CMT Country Music Television. So i asked to have the channel turned on. This restraunt had all african american workers who were obviously offended by the country music. A worker came out and said nothing but news and sports on the TV and changed the channel. Needless to say CMT is written on the sign in the upper right hand corner. I spoke to the manager she said im sorry gave me my coffee for free and asked if i wanted the channel changed back i said no im leaving. How ignorant and rude to change the channel? Definately a racial issue if i wanted BET on i bet there would be no problem.
I ordered a simple grilled cheese sandwich with fries. What I got was two pieces of buttered toast with a slice of cold cheese, straight from the refrigerator, of course, in the middle. The fries were less than half cooked. All of this was served without silverware and a napkin. Despite asking for them. And the manager was "awfully busy right now so she can't take your complaint. She also won't get any more of my business.
Myself and two grandsons went to Camp Road, Hamburg, NY location on 08/27/2013, arriving at 11:00. My grandson's 8th birthday, because they love your pancake and pancake balls. Was seated right away...never saw anyone for 10 minutes..finally hostess took drink order...10 minutes went by. Asked when we could place order..she said she did not know..another five minues.i asked if we would be served if we moved (about 10 tables were filled). She said that she would have to find one to clean off!!!
Finally waitress comes, says she is really busy and would get to us when she could. Another 10 minutes..realy should have left but the kids wanted pancake balls (THAT WAS ON THE MENU I WAS GIVEN).Placed our order of tow pancake meals/one kids meal. Then told they don't have the pancake balls that we wanted. Food came...1/2 of one meal because she sent back burnt eggs (burnt over easy eggs??) cold toast,no butter, one syrup to split...then I finally walked back to kitchen where everyone was just standing around..because the macaroni and cheese was ice cold. Waitress handed me the eggs to take back to table, reheated the m&c probably for the 10th time that day. To beat it all
we were just trying to get thru this meal when the BUG EXTERMINATOR walked thru the restaurant to the kitchen!!
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER AGAIN!!!! PUKE WOULD BE BETTER!!! SERVICE WAS THE WORST. I even told a couple coming in to leave as fast as they could. oh, and while sitting there, a man told the air head hostess that it was the worst service he had ever had, she just smiled and said "COME AGAIN". Another couple had their bill taken care of by some unknown woman who came out of the kitchen.
All the free coupons in the world will never get me back there, but you can be sure that I will tell everyone I can about the terrible service, food and attitudes at this restaurant.
I never should have paid for the $28.00 worth of food that I imagine is still sitting on the table.
Really upsetting when the restaurant requires you to print up the coupons that are on my iPhone app when there is a code that they get from the app and they can enter it into the register without printing out a coupon. They had taken it before and entered it and now there is a sign on the door that they require a printed out coupon and will not accept coupons that are on the I phone without it being printed out....what is the sense in having the app then in the first place especially for us that have no printer. Wish Dennys would get together on this and before offering anything like this all need to agree to it....in the beginning some had not even heard about the app and had to ask th to inquire about how the 50 states challenge works for their restaurant...I have 11 coupons on my app and cannot even use them now. I am so disappointed because I eat at dennys quite often and cannot take advantage of these coupons that I have earned. Makes me want to find a different eating establishment that will stand behind their offers.
Me and father went to diner on 02/05/2013 in Moses Lake, it was the worse place to eat, food was cold, the service was horrible it took us over 30 min to get served and on top on of that when we did get our food it was cold it was wrong stuff we order .
There was no manager on duty only a cook who was horrible and a waitress who was the only one working with at least 15 tables who did not know what she was doing. there was Other people complaining in the restaurant as well.
When I call to complain the manager NEVER called me back so he does not even care as well.
Spent 30.00 on a horrible dinner, it was not worth it.
I will never go there and never recommend it to anyone
on 2/12/2013 my grandmother and I came into Denny's located at 110 Bonita RD Chula Vista, CA 91910 . I was served food off of a dirty plate. i noticed it after i had consumed almost a majority of my food. once i noticed it i brought it to the waitress attention. I specifically told her this is how people get food poison. They removed the fee for that item i purchased, but we honestly we do not know if every plate we ate off of was dirty as to the silverware. i noticed dried up green stuff under may pancakes. if i didn't remove my pancakes to another plate i wouldn't of know that i was eating off a dirty plate. I am curious that when the plate was plated did the chef see that the plate was dirty? i felt the whole bill should of been dismissed and we should of got a gift card to eat a free meal at our leisure, at any location we chose. i haven't called the health department yet because i wanted to address this issue with your company first. Thanks , Angela order#617971 table 16 guest 2 server Alejandra D. i do not blame he server as much as i blame the person who plated the plates.
I was in the Denny's in Jackson TN on 3/5/13 at around 11:30 am at exit 85 on I 40 I set at the counter for 20 min no one asked to help me two other people set down two waitress help them right away did not even ask me anything . Took there orders and walked off . As a business owner my self of a trucking co. Who's driver eat at Denny's all the time because pilot is my full stop maybe ill just put a stop to this and change my full stop and not eat at Denny's ever. This was the worst treatment I have had in a business.
Me and my wife sat in the parking lot 8/17/2023 about 7:30sm a car pulls up you can't see in our windows so we watched a female passenger and a man driver drinking little wine bottles. To my surprise the passenger was a waitress at Dennys. I'm a business owner myself. This real disturbed me while they drank wine an used the n word about 100 times. The passenger get out and she's a server. I tell my wife let's go sit in her section. Not only did she smell like a bar her additive was crazy. we heard her cursing under her breath every time she walked away. She had a cell phone that kept ringing that was more important to her. That's sad I would never hire someone to represent my company like that. Her name was Natasha Jackson. The alcohol on her breath was so loud it ruined our appetite. Our kids were disappointed in the service. We got ready to leave we hear naytasha threatened an other waitress there. The other waitress had tears coming down her face. Thank you. Worst drunk waitress.
my family and me went to dennys today to eat lunch and to get a to go order. when they brought our coffee out it was cold and while we were there we got it refilled one time. and we were there for about an hour. then i order my son a strawberry banana smoothie and he ended up getting looked like strawberry blended with ice. which he did not drink so i wasted $1.49 on that. not counting the 2 coffees we had that we wasted 2.49 on. we got our food which looked like they put kid size amount on for fries and hashbrowns. the one had pancakes and they were over cooked and rubber. after we ate we had to remind our waitress we ordered a 2 go order. she ordered the sampler to go and subsituded chhese fries for the onion rings. well we got a half order when we ordered a full order. when called and asked to speak to the manger he told us that he made a half order and argued with us that the half order is what we ordered. when i told him we had the reciept he then said well come back and he would refund the difference is all. the service was rude. i now decided i will either not go or to drive across town to the other dennys.
My family and I was going to eat at Denny's in Franklin, Ky. We were waiting to be seated and no one even acknowledged we were even there. After about 20 minutes or so, the people that came in right in front of us was taken to their seats and then the hostess came to us and told us we were goingto have to wait til they had time to clean tables and it will be at least another 15 mins . There were a dozen plus tables empty and wasn't any reason to make us wait any longer. I told her we were not waiting and she acted happy we weren't. Well Denny's, I am sure Cracker Barrel was glad to get our $50.OO plus. You need to give your employee some training in customer satisfaction. This happen March 17, 2013 about 1pm
Just heard about your franchisees comments about Obamacare. I've been eating at my local Denny's 3-5 days a week for over a year now, but no more. I didn't even vote for the guy, but that's one of the few things he at least tried to get right -- he just didn't go far enough! Please pass my condolences along to your franchise holder in Houston because I won't be going back again, ever. That's what happens when business tries to throw its weight around in politics in this country -- you alienated HALF your customers. I just hope it gets more coverage on the news so ALL your customers hear about it.

There was approximately 5 customers in seats, I waiting to be seated for 12 min and then when I sat down at my table it took literally 20 to get a drink order, when it was time to order my food I did not get my appetizer, when I got my food I only got half of what I ordered! I am sad to say each time I come to this astablishment I get poor service! I will not be coming back to this Denny's ever again.
The wireless internet service for Denny's restaurants in the Columbia,SC area has not been working for over a month now. This service is provided to Denny's by TurnKey Solutions. ALL customers with laptops or tablets are unable to get past the login screen, indicating a network problem affecting several locations causes by software failure or corruption or physical failure of a router or server at a regional level.
The manager of the store on Fairfield Rd. in Columbia has made several efforts to get this looked into by Turnkey Solutions, who don't take this matter seriously because she isn't a networking or IT specialist. Well I am one. This problem is causing a lot of dissatisfaction among regular customers and truck drivers who expect a working internet connection at Denny's nationwide.
It's also costing the restaurant to lose customers, and money. Prompt attention to this matter at the corporate level would be greatly appreciated.
The dennys on sand canyon in canyon country ca . If I wanted to wait an hour to eat then I would of just came in and sat down .... I called and placed an order to a rude and short waitress who still made me repeat my order 3 times before she got it right . She says 15 min and hangs up . No price no nothing . I show up 20 min later and see this angry Asian woman asking me if I need some help and I just want my food .
She say five more min makes me pay and then avoids me for an hour not just her the whole staff Untill my order was ready ........ I just ordered country fried ste ak and a blt sandwich .... She hands me the order faces the other way stretches out her ARM and says bye bye thank you .
I tell her I want to complain she ignores me . My experience sucks , my food tasted like shit under cooked and how do you make a toasted soggy sandwich ?!?!?! Today was the final straw that broke the back . I WILL NEVER EAT DENNYS EVER AGAIN.
I'm going to tell all ky costumers and friends work collegues and everyone to never eat dennys . Only reason I ever go is because everything else is closed . Next time ill go to 711 and buy a hot dog . I perform in front of hundreds monthly .. I will be advising them too .. it wasn't just this one time this is atleast the 10 th time I've been dissapointed
None of our three orders were received correctly. One order was T-Bone/Shrimp. Her order had no shrimp., and the steak was well done not medium rare. My order was Sr. Shrimp,green beans, mashed potatoes, country gravy and soup. My husband ordered Sr. Country Fried Steak, Mashed Potatoes, Corn, Soup. My Husband and I had to switch veggies. Our soups were all luke warm, and my potatoes were cold by the time I got the gravy.
I realize the server was new, but she did have a trainer, and the restaurant was not busy at all for a Friday Night @ 7:30 pm. I know the order
didn't go in the computer correctly as the check had an open item for $2.00 and when I asked what the charge was for they said that was the amount added for the shrimp on the T-Bone Steak Dinner. In other words to whole order went in incorrectly.
My brother and i went to denny after church hoping to enjoy a great meal. Most of the evening was fine but i just got hone to look at my recipt and realized i was overcharged! We made our own burgers and ask for a 2nd patty which is said to be 150 but i was charged 439 on both of ours which iis ridiculous.
My husband and I recently toured the USA for six weeks and ate several times at different Denny's. On Friday January 31st we were in Pecos, Texas (store #8584)and had the worst meal and service of our extended holiday. First, the restaurant was dirty, service was slow. Our waiter was much more concerned with visiting with other tables. I ordered a salad and received a dinner salad (on a hot plate) with about one cup of dressing on top. You couldn't see the salad for the dressing. When I asked for a salad with dressing on the side, I had to ask for it again after my meal came. I ordered a "hot platter" meal that was served on a regular plate and very, very greasy. My husband ordered spaghetti that was dried and cold. The managers comment was "we're short of staff and busy". We visit Denny's quite regular and I have never encountered a restaurant such as this and I think it is a disgrace to the franchise name of "Dennys". I would hope that a regional manager pay a surprise visit to this franchise.
I called Easter Sunday to place an order for pick-up. I ordered the SANTA FE skillet & the French Toast breakfast. The woman on the line said the French Toast did NOT come with a side just 1 piece of meat an eggs she's suggested I get the FRENCH TOAST SLAM so I agree and ask that my side is grits then she said the grits were $2.02 additional charge so then I asked if there is anything on the menu that includes grits and French toast she said that I should "build my own slam" when I asked for eggs, bacon, french toast &grits she said the french toast was not an option on the "build your own" menu.
At this point I'm frustrated and ask for double eggs bacon & grits. She repeated my order and it was still incorrect finally she got it right I hung up and I went online and checked the menu the French Toast breakfast does in fact come with a side so I call back to speak with the manager not to change my order but to make him aware that the woman answering the phone is not knowledgeable of the menu he proceeded to tell me that they were busy and I confused his staff and if I didn't want to change my order then I should not have called them at such a busy time.
I didn't get the woman's name but the jerk manager who stuck up for her (and not the customer) his name is Ron he should NOT be in a position of authority and is in dire need of customer service skills. Store is located at 690 N State Read 7 Margate, Fl. Although I've never been to this particular store I do frequent DENNYS restaurants and this was totally outrageous and hopefully an isolated incident.
--Pissed Off Customer
While sitting at the counter, condensation from the air vent above dropped onto my food. I tried to share what had happened with the Manager, Kathy. Who told me I shouldn't have been sit there. I said I sit there no knowing there was a problem and I thought she would like to know since it was a health safety issue. She walked away and wouldn't talk to me. I was not impressed.

i went into denny's for brunch in Lynwood, CA by imperial and long beach blvd with my sister and her kids and the wait to even get our drinks was horrible. the restaurant was not even full. the waitress by the name is jocelyn must have been having a bad morning or something because she even started arguing with me about what wanted to get telling i was dumb.
they messed up our order and she was upset at us for sending the food back. we could even hear her in the kitchen talking about us. the restroom was so dirty as well. when i talk to the cashier she dismiss me and when i spoke to the manager the waitress was standing behind the counter talking about us in a horrible way. its not like we did not pay for the food because we did. this was the worst service ever. i will never go back there again!!!
To who it concern myself and some friends come to eat last night to the Denny's on Atlantic blvd. What we got was a dirty place servers out front smoking in front. Server Kim uniform is so dirty how could a business let a server work there, I watched her pick shit up and not was her hands. Then she rubbed her hands on her clothes then fixed a customer something to drink. The night time manager looked stone she didn't care the place was dirty. Them my friend asked a server name Kristen something to drink she never came back but was spending time at some table on one side which only had one person on it. Overall will not recommend this place to no one but will put it out to people that this the worst place to go at night. Bravo to the black male server. On Thursday night for taking care of his customer and getting my other friend a glass of water. I think his name was Kenron
Everytime we go to the Denny's in Hudson, Fl on Saturday's kids Eat Free we get overcharged...this time it was my husband who paid and got overcharged by the manager! I didn't realize it till I got home, but am pretty heated about it! You would think that doing this twice a week they would know what to do...VERY AGGRAVATED! I expect a refund of somesort coming back to me perferably in the money I paid out that I should not have! Here is my number...I hope to hear from someone soon...727-514-4688.
Today (1-23-2012) at 3:00 p.m. we visited Denny's on 46 in Sanford, FL. We ordered our drinks and just rec'd them and
this man started spraying the whole dining room. It was a sprayer like you would use outside and a lady held the hose as
he sprayed. When she went by our table she looked at me and gave me a big smile. Our throats made it hard to breeze so
we got up and left and went to Denny's on 436 in Altamonte Springs in FL and the restaurant was beautiful and the service
was great and the food was excellent.
I have never in my life had something like this happen. There were several employees around and no one said a thing.
We are seniors and we eat out every day and this was jut uncalled for.
My family and three friends entered Denny's approx. 10AM, Saturday, April 13, 2013. Denny's was packed and there were a few people waiting at the door. We waited our turn, but because there were seven of us, the place was full. We decided to wait when I saw a table open next to the restrooms and because there was no one else waiting, seated ourselves thinking that the waitresses running like chickens with their heads off would appreciate it. We eat at this Denny's sometimes as much as 4 to 5 times a week and everyone there knows us. We were not in a hurry and our party was seated when (Deb-the manager) came over and very angerly told me off infront of everyone. She stated that I can wait to be seat!!! Can you read?? And that she was short staffed and did NOT appreciate me seating my family and friends myself and that I was inconsiderate. She was very hot and tart with her words and actions at our table. Everyone was blown away for a few minutes. I explained that I thought I was being helpful and did not mean to up-set her or her routine. She said don't do it again, and as she walked away smiled and greeted the other customers. They just looked at her and then looked at us. I am VERY hurt to be treated this way and in my opinion over what I believe to be nothing. Yet told off just the same to make her day. I hope she got what she wanted. Our friends were not impressed. The woman is a manager of another restaurant and after Deb left, Jo looked at me and asked if I wanted to go somewhere else. I told her no because we were seated and I did not want to make a scene. I don't know about our friends, but as of now ----------we will not be seen or serviced at your Denny's due to rudness uncalled for. We have even on routine times had call-in orders to take home. "No More." I will find people who can be thank-ful for kindness and never rude. I believe someone else will now get our money and we will take their serve in kindness!!!!!! Sincerely, Sheryl Boze

I was in your restaurant in Anderson SC appx 1 week ago and ordered a meat ball sub. They took my order and came back out to tell me that they do not have any meat balls in stock. I understood and changed my order. I went back to the same Dennys today and ordered an appetizer sampler only to be told that they are all out of cheese sticks. I once again had to change my order and got chicken fingers only to be told there was no honey mustard. To me this is an issue. Its obvious that it is a busy place but I can think of several other all night restaurants that never ever have said they are out of food. I think it may be a good idea to look at management because i know they just got a new manager and then all this began to happen. Thanks
We were traveling to Texas from Tennesse, when we stopped at your location in Manville, outside Texarkana. After an hour & a half, we had still not received our order. Two couples that had arrived after we did received their food. So, with 180 miles to travel my family & I had to leave hungry and disappointed that we wasted our time at this dennys. We are avid fans and eat at Dennys frequently, but will never be stopping at this location and will be making sure the other military families we know that travel to Texas know not to stop there either.
I had breakfast with my a friend this morning at Denny's. I was repulsed by the dirty plate my breakfast was served on.
I notified my waitress that my plate was dirty, she could see that it was indeed dirty, she said that she was sorry about that and told me that she would get me a fresh one. I watched as she sent my plate back to the kitchen, a minute or so later she returned with my breakfast not freshly made but transferred to a different plate, needless to say I couldn't eat the recycled breakfast. I informed the cashier about this incident, she said the manager was not available, I told her that this was a health risk to say the least I told her she gave my my change and told me to have a nice day.
This is not my first bad experience with Denny's but I assure you it is my last. I am looking into filing a complaint with the health Department, cross contamination was a risk if I had eaten this food.
Hi. My Son and I went to eat at the Denny's #6782 on 9/28/2012. It was my birthday so I decided to come in for the free meal(Grand Slam). We had two waters,Grand Slam and The Chicken Cordon Blue and a coffee. I asked the waitress if the Grand Slam meal was still free on birthdays and she stated," yes." The meal went without any issues I then paid and it was roughly $8.00 so I rounded it off to$ 10.00 with tip included. Currently,I'm checking my Capitalone account and I'm being billed $24.02 for the same birthday meal visit to Dennys. Now I ask,What is going on and how is Denny's going to remedy this situation?

I came in to Denny's today around noon (October 21 2012) and ordered a half order of nachos. Its What I always get when I come there. The food that I received was repulsive. I didn't eat it I hate to complain and be a burden but I aske for a new order. I have a picture of the food I received. There was huge plate of semi soft chips. On the far side of the plate was a small blob of meat and a tiny blob of cheese and salsa. It was enough for maybe 3 chips.
I was shocked the waitress sat this plate down and was content with it. Me and my friend whom I was dining with we're shocked and just stated for a few moments. Then when I went check out I walked up to the register because we waited about 45 minutes for our check that never came. I asked the waitress politely for it after eating. I do understand she was busy.
When I checked out my bill was for a regular full order of nachos. I was so upset an displeased I just paid my bill and walked out. I am strongly disappointed with the services I received today and now have a new view of Denny's.

Myself and my boyfriend went to eat at denny's in bourbonnais Illinois around 1 am on and this particular time i didn't order my usual, I order the All American Slam and when my food came to the table my eggs was to to over cooked my bacon was almost burnt my sausage was under cooked my pancakes was cook on a dirty grill ,i could tell that abou my pancakes because they had the black spots all threw them. This was just not right because i love denny's i go to denny's alot regardless of what state im in but this was unacceptable.
dennys in las cruces,it seems to go nowhere tp speak or tell concerns to the management.there is favoritism withn management.employees living with the management.so they get hours and a paycheck.other employee dating the person who lives with management,who hangs out with the other manager getting other employees hours and extra hours to get a paycheck. our gm is best friends and hangs out with a server who is not even 21 yetand gets hours and a paycheck.employees that work their butts off get nothing but cut hours and hassels.employees taking breaks longer than they should no write-ups.employees constantly late no write ups because they are friends to management,while other employees who come in late get threatened to be written up.a manager who openly states he hates his job and doesn't want to be a manger. no professionalism or fairness in this restaurant.customers openly complain about the management.
the one thing a costemer is looking for is a good cup of coffee, but when it tasts like hot iodine dou to the hi amount of clorine in it , as well as thay are charging $2.09 for a cup too boot, you might as well as put a sign in front (don't eat here)the wefe & i have passed up dennys for 20+years becuse of there cardbord hashbrowns (whitch thay have finly fixed) but the coffee is the last straw! PS. this type of coffee put winchels out of busness years ago,( due to first hand experance in the 70's). the menue has changed through the years for the better & the wife & i have been going there often, but tell the idiot who's pushing the buttons to fix the coffee NOW! thay said that thay filter the water but thats so mutch BS!!!

This past sunday my family and I decided to have lunch at dennys located at 3580 S wadsworth Lakewood CO. we had a decent dinning experience but when we left the restaurant it was when we realize how dishonest the employees were. My son was playing with his IPod after he finished his meal, got up and went on to the restrooms. We left not knowing he had left his iPod behind, as we got to the car within two minutes we realized he had left it in the restaurant. We went back to check the table and it was gone. (Also the tip was gone, and the table wasclean) When we asked the staff about it they said they hadn't seen it. But its imposible that within two minutes and after they cleaned the table for no one to see anything. I am not expecting for Denny s to pay for my son ipod because at the end it was his mistake for not taking care of his belongings but I do expect for dennys to hire honest employees. In hard times like this the restaurant should be trying to keep customers happy so they can keep their businesses, as for me and my family we are never returning to a Dennys.
I ask for my receipt after paying and owner just grabbed it and said that the receipt from credit card payment was the only receipt for me to keep. Whe he had already put away the first copy and he still kepth the second one which is the customer's copy. I wonder why he didnt want to give me my receipt all this happened at Denny's #8019 4760 East cesar chavez Los angeles CA 90022 on 12/13/12 around 10:35 am
On Monday 10-01-2012 at approximately 5:10 and Monday 10-15-2012 at 5:20pm my daughter (10yrs.) and myself chose to eat at Denny's. Both experiences were similiar but on 10/15/2012, it was worse. Denny's was not busy and had approximately 10 tables occupied. We waited approximately 10 minutes staring at a sign which read " It will be our pleasure to seat you", yet it did not feel that way. Then we were greeted by a guy in a tie who apparently could only say, "booth or table", which I responded "booth". Another 10 minutes went by until a waitress came to the booth. We got drinks and ordered, and then waited 45 minutes for a Jr. Grandslam and a Blueberry Pancake meal (i.e. one hour and five minutes). My daughter initiated the idea that we shouldn't come here anymore, "cause its so so slow". Yet we watched at least 3 cooks and 6 waitress act like they were having a great time. We ate it in 10 minutes, and waited again 10 minutes for a check. As I paid, the young girl said, "how was everything?", so I said, " It was terrible, we waited too long, and it ruined the rest of our plans this evening (i.e. which was dinner and a movie). The young girl replied with a dumb young chuckle, and took my money. It made me wonder why she was even trained to ask that question (i.e. since she didn't want the answer or the truth). It was a great evening with my daughter but a very lousy place to take her and wait a hour and a half to have some pancakes. I got her that evening to take her to the movies, and the delay and poor service, effected the remainer of our evening. We could have gone several other places, or have just cooked the pancakes myself at my home without any problems, which I'll probably will do next time.
Entered at 2:30 am New Years Eve /Day next to me and wife dirty unbiased table.food took 38 minutes to come to table during that time table next to us remained dirty. Upon receiving our food Burger looked in like a Burger top bun rock hard 8 fries on the plate no Bacon on Burger as ordered and burger ice cold.
No manager on duty to address the problem they apparently had left for the evening /morning so just hourly employees server cook OVERWHELMED in ALL areas.
Hello, I have been a loyal, bi-weekly customer at your establishment in Merrillville, IN for almost three decades. However, due to some extreme managerial issues, I regret to inform you that I will not be returning. Today when I sat down, there was no silverware at my table, nor any tables around me. For the third visit in a row, the orange juice tasted something awful. Aside from the juice, another consistency of your business was the manager's habitual "chit-chat" with employees; it is rather quite distracting.
Now, I may not run a restaurant, but for eleven years I have been a CEO for a rather large grocery store, so I know how to run a business. I know that is it a manager's obligation to perform any task needed when it can not feasibly be done by other employees, no matter how minute. Our server was adaquately busy with tables, so it would be the manager's duty to make sure that I had silverware. Instead, she stood gossipping with two of her servers. Throughout my meal, she ceeased only for a brief moment from her drivel. When I went to go cash out, I overheard her (I believe her name is "Cindy") talking very inappropriately about a pregnant server of hers. She was speaking very personally to three other servers. This type of behavior from any manager is unacceptable . I find it funny though, because the server she was reffering to, I have had on numerous occasions, and not only is she a dilligent worker, she is extremely delightful. It made me sick to hear your employee talk so ill of her server.
In addition, a few weeks ago I find myself coming out of the bathroom when I overhear your manager send two of her cooks on break. A server replies: "But Cindy, we'll only have one cook, and the rush is about to come in". Cindy replies: "no, we'll have two cooks". The server replies, " 'So-and-so' is just a trainee, he's not ready yet". Cindy replies, "No, he'll do just fine." Unfortunately, through no fault of his own, he didn't do fine; my bacon was burnt, there was no ham with my Lumberjack Slam, and there was no butter on my toast. Instead of putting all of her faith in a trainee, your manager should have been back there herself cooking my meal. I feel highly embarrassed for your company that your hourly employees seem to know more aout how your business should be ran than their superior.
For every successful business, there are successful people running it. There is nothing about your business in Merrillville that says "success" except for the serving staff, and on a slightly milder note, the cooking staff. There are serious flaws in the chain-of-command, as I have heard numerous employees use profanity and disrespect towards management to get what they want. But the thing is that it works, so who can blame them. As I have said, I attend your establishment twice a month, and let me tell you, business for you today has declined rapidly over the past 18 months. I implore you to fix your problems before customers like myself, begin to dine elsewhere. I am highly disappointed that my nostalgic days at your restaurant have come to an end.
We arrived at the Denny's store number 8633, at 1305. E. Monte Cristo Road, Edinburg, Tx. Flying J at 9:30 pm on Jan. 18, 2013. There were 6 in our group. We were seated then waited 15 minutes before a server came to the table, the business was not busy. After our order was taken, we waited 30 minutes and then asked where our food was and the server said they were waiting on the cooks. Another 15 minutes and part of the food came out, but it wasn't right, still no silverware. We had to get our silverware ourselves from a tray. 10 more minutes some more of the orders come. We have complained to manager, he comes back and writes down what we are missing, another waitress comes over and asks what we are missing. 10 minutes more food comes, but some of it is wrong. They do not fill water glasses, but when they finally did, the glass they brought back were dirty with yellow water in one and a lemon seed and debris in the bottom. Another 10 minutes the rest of the food comes after telling 3 different people what we were missing. Altogether we were there 2 hours!!! I had ordered a hush puppy sundae and it took an hour and a half to get it. Then the hush puppies were fried in old grease. Then the manager only was going to give us our AARP discount, I argued and finally he gave us 50% off. It should have been FREE.
Wow Denny's way to go!!! Plain clothes detectives in the city of Belleville, Illinois decide to patronize the local restaurant and are treated like criminals. Police officers that risk their lives everyday. Supposedly after a diner complained they are asked to remove their weapons or leave, because they are following department policy they cannot remove their weapons.
Their badges were visible and they identified themselves and were still asked to leave! So once again anyone carrying a weapon is presumed to be evil. I cannot believe a place of business would not welcome a police presence, I am not a police officer nor am I related to any, or close friends with anyone in law enforcement.
Now you claim it is a misunderstanding how can that be they had badges, identified themselves and were still asked to leave. The only people I believe would feel uncomfortable with armed police would be a criminal, perhaps the person complaining had something to hide. The manager involved should be fired.
Remember these are the same police officers that serve and protect with the very weapons they had on them! Denny's should be ashamed an official apology from corporate is in order.
I have never seen something like this. 12 at night and the manager leaves with dirty tables and costumers coming in with one server on there are 6 full tables right now full with people n 4 groups of people. O. Wait one girl that's been waiting for 20 min for take out n didn't get to order and left. I sat and waited for 15 minutes before the server gave me my check. It is very wrong that the manager just left the reasturant like this. I do not appreciate his actions what so ever. He should of either stayed a while to help or had another server to come in and help.
I went to the Denny 's on Northampton Blvd, in Norfolk, VA around 745-800 am on Friday, March 29, 2013, which happened to be my birthday and I was going to get my birthday grand slam. We walked in the restaurant and there were 3 tables full and 1 waitress on the floor.
She said I will be right with you, went to the back got a full tray of drinks for 2 of the tables brought them back delivered them, about 5 minutes later, and again said BE RIGHT WITH YOU, instead of saying seat yourself or something like that...so finally after about 10 more minutes, we LEFT!!!
I was so upset because she should have had someone there with her....instead of still waiting on the tables, and it was NOT BUSY!!!!.....This is not the first time I have encountered this problem with this restaurant, but it will be the LAST time i go there. .. Obviously it is POOR MANAGEMENT....NOT TO HAVE 2 WAITRESSES FOR THE BREAKFAST HOUR....please!!!!
So finally my friend said lets go over to the Newtown Road one, which we did....We walked in the place, and got seated as soon as we sat down, and the service was EXCELLENT....I spoke to the manager there and they said they have heard that several times about the one on Northampton.... you all need to get better MANAGEMENT there.......
5/1/2013 Went into Denny's resturant in Amarillo, Tx for breakfast 9:55 in the morning. Waited approx. 15 minutes to be waited on. Finally made our choices off menu and waited another 20 minutes for the waitress to come back for our order. Got that taken care of and waited another ( I timed this part to the minute) 48 minutes to get our food. This kind of service is bad enough but, when your food is cold when you get it and by that time squeezed for time, we did our best with eating it. I asked to see the manager and was told she wasn't there. While this was all going on we started noticing folks getting up and walking out in disgust. This was the first time we'd eaten at Dennys in a good while and, will be the last. It's I-hop or the Waffle House from here on. DONE WITH DENNYS.
I was in the denny's sunday february 24th in the evening and the dirty person cooking was discusting and servicce was to be desired. we had to ask several times for refills of coffee, extra napkins and waited for service. tried again tuesday february 26th in the morning with a party of 26 and the floors were wet and dirty, coffee cups dirty, and waited for almost an hour for coffee because they "only have 1 coffee pot. alsso didn't take our orders and when they did take the orders, there was a very rude and nasty server that wasn't even helping had to mouth off to a few of the patrons. another thing one of the men went into the restroom and said there was mold growing on the urinal. discusting!!! i have been in there before and cups still had lipstick on cups that were supposed to be clean. ugh. another thing there was water all over the floor behind the counter and surprised the servers didn't fall. wish you would clean up or close your restaurant. not fit to even go there.
On Monday October 29, 2012 around 11:30 AM I went in to Denny's 1493 US 74a Byp Hwy Forest City NC to eat. There was a man and a woman sitting at the table across from me with a poodle dog in his arm at the table where you eat. I asked the manager about the dog she got smart with me with tone in her voice and said, they have papers for the dog. Then she went on to say to another person at the bar that I said something about the dog. I let her know that it is nasty. I dont think dogs and people should eat at the same table.
My boss vincent ford has had a sexual relationship with a employee thats young enough to be his daughter, the way they carry on on the job is sickning, and to have her tell me she got pregnant by him how degrading now i see why he didnt mind her working overtime,if i got off at 1 he want me gone bt 1:15 her she will work hrs over, i think that no manager should stoop to that level should this be accepted ? Not only do i know but cooks, and other servers has witness this is just a shame i see where sleep ur way to the top come in at .im going to go much further with this complaint it dont stop here,people should know what goes on behind the doors of dennys
We were waiting for a long time for the second time going there. The store on Kings Highway barely had anyone in there, yet we were waiting for over 20minutes with no one asking us what we wanted to drink. When we asked when is someone going to serve us, the waitress said we weren't waiting that long. This is disheartening and we are totally turned off by the lack of service.
Denny's #7287, Santee, CA. When I ordered the senior turkey dinner at 12:48 pm yesterday, I was told I could not have the green beans and that they did not come with the dinner even though they were shown in the picture. I then changed my order to the regular priced dinner (9.49) in order to get the beans. The waitress came back and told me that they were out of green beans for the turkey dinner. So, I changed my order to the senior dinner (7.59). The salad had a strip of cellophane in it (ugh!) and I had to insist that I be given a new salad.....the wait staff was reluctant to do this as they stood gaping at the strip of cellophane and trying to figure out what it was! The manager checked on us a few minutes later and said no apology and did nothing. The turkey, dressing, and potatoes were so bad that I couldn't eat it and just sat it aside. My husband paid the bill so it wasn't until this morning when I looked at my receipt that I saw that I was charged for the regular priced dinner! After clearly telling both wait staff that I was changing to the senior price since they were out of beans, no one bothered to change the receipt. I am FURIOUS at the really poor service, the bad food, and the lack of consideration! Is there anybody at #7287 in charge of quality?! I was charged the regular price for the senior portion... The way I see it, Denny's owes me and my three friends a refund!
The Denny's store in Kansas City, MO near Bartle Hall on Broadway is TERRIBLE! I ordered a dish thinking it was chicken but it was fish. When I got it and found out I told the waitress I made a mistake. She said I could return it for chicken. But then the manager Jim Solomon came over and was VERY and I mean VERY rude. He said that I HAD to keep the dish and that Tilapia was fish and acting like EVERYONE knew that. I actually just ordered by the picture and didn't even read what the description which was my mistake. But the A-hole MADE me keep it. I should have just walked out. I have NEVER in my life had a restaurant MAKE me keep a dish that I did NOT want. NEVER. AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE!
