Denny’s

Labarbara was FANTASTIC — she deserves a promotion and a raise! I promise I don’t know her and never met her before but she works her butt off to make customers happy. KJ seated me and was great as well, very quick to get order and bring drinks. I never thought I would give a Dennys 5 stars but this place deserves it. I am a very picky health conscious eater. I am on the road for my job 25 nights a month and staying fit is terribly hard with that travel schedule. Many of the nicest restaurants roll their eyes or give me attitude when I ask for specific requests to make my meal a healthier option. Not at this place. I also have 2 life threatening allergies that have made me a picky eater — not by choice. They made me a very fluffy egg white omelet. «Light on the cheese» — sure, no problem. «Little to no oil or butter» — sure, no problem. «Stay away from seafood or tree nuts». Sure, happily done. Butter on the side, don’t sauté veggies, etc, etc. All done happily with a smile and my order was perfect and low calorie. I couldn’t resist a milkshake but couldn’t do the calories of a full version so they gave me a junior version just to have a taste — perfecto. So great and so glad I chose this Dennys over a stuffy restuarant.

Ok it is Dennys. The food is good, quick and inexpensive breakfast. This particular location was packed at 10 am and people still coming in big numbers.
My review really is for the amazing staff here. From the greeting at the door to our hard working and super amazing server Reggie. He was handling so many tables and didn’t miss a beat. Super polite and great service.

WHEN YOU ARE STARVING IN THE MIDST OF NIGHT, THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL IS… DENNY’S.
Let’s face it. Denny’s customers fall into very different and specific categories. You are either: 1) The Adolescent That Eats At Ungodly Hours 2) The Customer that Stops By Only in the Middle of Long Trips 3) The 65+ Seniors Club 4) The Alcoholic that Thinks They Serve Alcohol, or 5) The Guy/​Gal that Actually Wakes Up for Breakfast. Regardless of who you are, Denny’s does not disappoint and continues to serve us all without judgment (except for what you might want them to do to your eggs). Each Denny’s has its own personality, with this one fully encompassing the Parkland and Medical District environment. With updated seasonal items and their old-​fashioned menu, they continue to provide options for the picky eater in all of us. Sit down and grab something off the $ 2,4,6,8 menu, let’s talk about the food.
The Food: YOU CAN TEACH AN OLD DOG, NEW TRICKS.
The Grand Slam: THE PORTABLE BUDGET BREAKFAST BUFFET.
Honestly, this is Denny’s reputation. You can customize what you want and how you want it. My setup includes: whole wheat pancakes with white chocolate chips (extra charge for the white chocolate chips), sunny side up eggs, hash browns, and bacon or sausage. The whole wheat pancakes are sweet, fluffy, and filling, the perfect companion to the runny egg yolk and moist egg whites. The bacon or sausage provides just enough smoky, meaty flavor to add the strong salty element that wakes you up. The hash browns are crispy on the outside and warm and chewy on the inside. Combined with some ketchup, you get sweet. salty, and tangy all in one bite. I think we covered all the desirable flavors on the tongue’s palate. You get multiple flavors with multiple textures, that is what I love about the Grand Slam. Customize it the way you want it, in more ways than Burger King’s «Have it your Way.» The best part is that you can get this portable breakfast buffet for around $ 6 – 8, depending on what you choose. Honestly, this is the American Dream… I mean American Breakfast that everyone talks about.
Blackberry Pancake Puppies Sundae: TRADE YOU $ 2 FOR A SUNDAE, TODAY!
If I told you that this consisted of 3 fried donut holes, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and some cream cheese frosting on top, you would not be impressed. That is how I felt… BEFORE THEY BROUGHT IT OUT. The presentation of this sundae shocked me beyond expectation. They brought out one of those old milkshake glasses and filled it up to the top! They really do know how to impress the customer’s eyes and consequently, their appetite. The Blackberry Pancake Puppies were fried crisp on the outside and stayed light and cakey on the inside. The sweetness predominantly came from the blackberry jam/​syrup. The vanilla ice cream was plain ol’ vanilla ice cream, but its cold, melty creaminess complemented the warm, moist, and cakey Pancake Puppies. The whipped cream did not look or taste like it was made from milk, probably whipped hydrogenated oil (aka cool whip) [-1 star]. The cream cheese icing on the top was strong, tangy, and sweet, but the guiltiest pleasure of the night. It completed the sundae and really made it feel like you just had a mouthful of cake, especially how it enhanced the Blackberry Pancake Puppies. For $ 2, this sundae was the perfect pick me up… especially at 3AM.
The Verdict: LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR, DENNY’S IS THERE.
Whenever you are starving deep into the wee nights or need a place to go, just know that if you see Denny’s, you see salvation. The food is not culinary worthy, but it is always consistent and filling. Service may differ depending on location, but you can always expect to see sunny side up eggs; warm, crispy hash browns, and a stack of pancakes with your name on them. If you have not been here, it is time to find an excuse to come here. Get the Grand Slam for God’s sake, and take command of your breakfast. Enjoy the $ 2,4,6,8 menu; including unlimited pancakes for $ 4. Once you come here, I guarantee you will be back. And who would not? With the cheap prices and hash browns that you will not find as perfect as here. Ladies and gentleman, breakfast is back… all day, everyday, and forevermore.

Food was good and Edgardo was very friendly and super attentive. He gave good recommendations and did such a great job handling our rowdy group! I especially appreciated his constant smile and polite, friendly demeanor.

yuckkkkkkkkk. had a craving. that feeling was destroyed. if i wanted my food to taste like ass i woulda went to the cafeteria at the hospital around the corner.

Amazing breakfast. Got the veggie omelette with hash brown and buttermilk pancakes was absolutely delicious good portion as well. Right next to the hotel so very convenient as well.

This place is not as bad as the reviews say. It does get super busy specially in the mornings but other than that the waiters where super sweet and nice to us our wait wasn’t long at all and the food tasted pretty good! The waiter was also really nice to our boys so overall I give them 5 stars for great customer service and great place to eat:)

Its not as bad as some of these people say.
Especially the lady over exaggerating about how there’s homeless people everywhere.
I come here quite often and I have never seen anybody loitering outside.
The service I get is always pretty excellent the waiters are so sweet and I love me some diner food.
The only thing I have had a problem with is they didn’t wanna give me a milkshake cause it was too late.
AND THERE WAS A F**KING COCKROACH.
not the tiny ones… the big ones.
But that was last year and I still kept going but its still gross to think about.

This place have he slowest service. Not pack at all and been here for an hour. They does NOT even have supply. No lemonade a, no smoothies, no sausages, no round bread for my egg in the basket.

Feigning 1200 calorie meals, margarine and watery coffee, I reluctantly gave Denny’s a go while in a rush on the way to work.
«Do you guys make poached eggs?»
«Yes we do.» The friendly and alert waitress confirmed.
«Black coffee please.» I requested.
«Do you want the bold style or regular blend?» She inquired.
«Bold!» I lit up
And it *was* bold. I was impressed.
I ordered a healthy poached egg breakfast with dry toast as the hordes of super sized family’s threw back cholesterol heavy hashbrowns and pancakes.
«I gave you the $ 4 breakfast and substituted an extra egg for the meat.»
Heaven! No margarine by mistake and quick service. Props to my waitress Pam.
I survived the K cal bomb and came out under 400 calories with the nice taste of strong coffee.
Denny’s — you get an extra star.
Atmosphere — a bit ghetto but hey it’s Amerika.

I’m always looking for a 24-​hour place with unlimited coffee so I can study. This place sucked. The empty coffee cup photo is definitely accurate. After I was served, I was essentially ignored. I mean it was 3 in the morning to be fair, but I was one of 5 people in there. Oh well, the coffee was pretty crappy anyway.
The food was pretty good actually — I had the Philly Cheesesteak Omelette, and the meat was not too dry, like I was expecting. Toast was not too oily. Hash browns were cooked nice too.
Besides the decent food, the seats were sticky, which is pretty nasty. This place does have WiFi, and outlets at some of the booths, which satisfies the bare minimum for a study spot. Other than that, I’m going to keep looking for my choice study spot.

Just like any other Denny’s. Decent food. Average service.

I try not to be pretentious and give every one and everything a fair shake on their own merits. So that is why I did not say f-​NO to a suggestion of eating here on the way to the airport. Denny’s universally kind of seems like a kind of place I should not find myself in for a number of reasons. And of course that assumption gets validated.
Waitstaff were grumpy, surly, miserable, and had expressions on their face that made you wonder justwhathappened in their life. So yeah, that sets a good tone. I can’t entirely blame them though after eating here.
There was a mix of people of course, young and old/​race/​religion etc. but there was a stunning lesson on the duality of man in the same restaurant (I use that term loosely) at the same time. On one hand you had an adorable looking family unit with what appeared to be a single mom (having enough experience with this I can usually tell) with her two teenage kids and I could just see it in my mind of how hard that woman works to support herself and keep the kids happy and she managed to get a long lunch at work one day so she runs home to pick up the kids and take them out for a nice experience out of the house on a warm summer day and it is going to be perfect, and they have limited money so they can’t go to Disney World or anything, so they have to make do with what they have and they are all going to have a great time at Denny’s as they talk and laugh and eat and remember that even if they don’t have every material possession then they at least have each other and the ability to go out for a fun lunch with mom every now and then.
And then you had a big, fat, loudmouth, redneck, racist, sexist prick who was berating the black female waitress on his steak not being rare enough and plenty of other idiotic Tea Party complaints. And his battered looking wife just sat there staring blankly, wondering where her life went so wrong, because she had potential back in that trailer park, she was going to be a civil engineer and do all these impressive things with her life but instead she was «with» him (daddy didn’t spot no ring) as he was berating this poor waitress and ruining the entire fantasy lunch that was playing out with the family a few tables away.
That is Denny’s for you.
