Denny’s

Day: 44 — I’m still here, the only thing clinging me to sanity is the music blaring out of the touchtunes jukebox.

Cheap prices!

This was the worst experience ever. Oredered my food to go for a family of 5. Christmas night. I had to wait 1 ½. I get home only to find they missed a meal because the person who charged me made a mistake. I go back and explain… Im getting attitude like it is my fault from the manager. I refused to pay more. I get my other order after getting sacarstic attitude by the manager like I planned to get a meal for free. I will never go there again. Horrible service.

In giving this Denny’s 5 stars because it deserves 5 stars! As soon as we walked in we were warmly greeted and sat right away. Our waitress «Ana V» was a total sweet heart and on top of her customer service. She was quick to serve and very friendly.
We were first skeptical of this Denny’s because of the location but it turned out to be a wonderful experience! I will be coming back no doubt!

Never come here if you’re hungry for a late night or early morning food. The service here is horrible and the food takes forever to come out. Never again.

Very nice, this particular location is great, every time we go there, food is hot and tastes great. Indian manager in particular is always smiling which makes our day. She is always on the go helping everyone. She is great. Our server Shruti was great.

The server was a nice guy and apologetic for how slow it was. I think his name was Sid. Juan working the cash register was in his own world. Slow, unresponsive, and really shouldn’t we seating or taking money. First and last impressions are important. The manager or lead was even worse.

Just got back from a fun filled night out and thought, «Hey, let’s just grab a bite to eat at Denny’s,» so my friends and I did. The parking lot as of 10/​17/​2015 is a bit confusing to find since it’s behind a gas station but if you do happen to find it, well then yay!
The servers and the hostess was super sweet and extremely nice and accommodating. They seated us really quickly and brought us to a nice spacious table, albeit next to someone else. The menu is just as you’d expect from a Denny’s, the typical American food choices from a late night diner. As a group of 5 we ordered some food from the value menu since no one was particularly hungry. I ordered a Southwest Turkey Sandwich with a cup of soup, in hopes that they’d be able to substitute the soup for some fries instead like my closer local Denny’s does. Unfortunately the server said they were unable to do so, so no substitutions on anyone’s food. The food was overall what you’d expect. The bread on my sandwich was kind of greasy, the turkey was just a normal cold cut, the avocado was small and the soup tasted like salty broth with some noodles and chunks of chicken. At 2 am however, it’s nothing I can really complain about but there is a certain fast food chain across the street that would have made me happier.
Overall the service was adequate, the servers were friendly but unable to be all that accommodating, and the food was as expected from a late night chain. If you’re really hungry and want to sit down by all means come out here, but if you’re just looking for a quick food fix, there are better alternatives.

The overall cleanliness of this Denny’s isn’t so good. My nose started itching after a few minutes of sitting down inside from all of the dust on our booth. The water glass I received had a few black specs in it. I assume it was just a little bit of black pepper, but I asked for another cup anyway.
I just had scrambled eggs, bacon and pancakes. I could only eat half of it before I started to feel grossed out. The pancakes were alright, but the eggs definitely tasted funny. There was some sort of bitter taste to them so I stopped eating after the first bite. Our waitress never came to our table once to refill our waters. Had to flag her down a couple times to get her attention which was a little annoying.
Really the only thing going for Denny’s are the good prices. Aside from that I just can’t recommend this Denny’s. There are too many similar and better restaurants around the area that will deliver a better dinning experience.

Denny’s is just one of those spots that my hubby and I frequent when we want something quick, something cheap, and something predictable. When we were college students, he and I would often do «Denny’s» runs after a long day of studying or classes. The food was always comforting and simple, not to mention easy on our wallets.
For this specific location, Denny’s is located very close to the San Jose Airport. It is surrounded by company buildings, but there are other places for food as well. Upon walking inside, the establishment is gigantic with plenty of seating, providing both booths and tables. We were given our choice of where we would like to sit and was served by a waiter named Sid. He was really helpful and provided great service. We just got an easy-​going vibe from him that made for a comfortable experience.
For our food, my hubby ordered the classic chicken and bacon burger with a side of seasoned fries and I got the chicken salad sandwich with a side of onion rings as well as a mango lemonade. The lemonade actually had real chucks of mango at the bottom which added another level of sweetness to the drink that I really liked. My hubby enjoyed his burger since it was made with a fresh chicken breast and vegetables. The fries were amazing, slightly crispy and 100% flavorful. As for the sandwich, the chicken salad itself was creamy and well-​balanced by the semi-​sweet grapes. The crust around the bread was a little too tough for my liking, but the onion rings were fried well and there was barely any oil at all.
So while Denny’s doesn’t serve MIND-​BLOWING food, you can always count on it on being consistent. Their prices are more than affordable and their service is great as well. Just don’t expect anything of too high quality.

Pretty classic. Hard to beat the basics of fast food.

The Skillet was too oily. The choco cake was half undercooked & half too hard. Icecream was not good either.

Not sure why Denny’s has such a bad rating but the food I’ve had here is good enough that I return. I came to this one and ordered the nachos to start and the country fried steak. The country fried steak was decent quality– I’ve had better gravy though. Nachos were great.
(Didn’t order it this time but my favorite is still the prime rib steak salad from denny’s)

Ordered a quesadilla to go and they give me a burnt Tortilla with a sprinkle of cheese! And the night manager had an attitude about remaking it properly that he took the box and crushed it and flung it into the trash can.

My boyfriend and I came here last night/​this morning (12:30a). As soon as we walked it it smelled like urine. We weren’t greeted even after making eye contact with the manager. He looked at us and looked away. I wanted to leave but where are you going to find a place open at that hour? Anyways, We asked for a menu and he gave us ONE. My boyfriend asked for another menu and he gave him attitude. Whatever. After, we tried putting an order in to go and no one was there to take our order. 15m later someone came and we placed it. It wasn’t even busy enough for them not to notice us.
The parking lot is shady too. Too many hoodlums lurking around.

This is probably the worst dennys I have ever stepped foot in. The service was slow. My group was more than patient. It took 30 minutes for them to take our orders and another 50 before we left for Jack in the Box. Our water did not even come out. I decided to take matters into my own hands and get water. I walked to the back, grabbed a couple glasses and filled them with water and fucking waited on myself. Ignacio our server was nowhere to be found. The kitchen was quiet and had no one leading the service. No one was talking or communicating. Our group had enough and just left. I am in the car right now enjoying my fucking jack in the box. Does it seriously take over an hour to cook some fucking eggs and bacon?

Three to Four Stars for three to four star YMMV service!

Food quality: It’s the Denny’s™ standard quality taste…

I am starting to make this my favorite Dennys for lun check time fare. I’ve already been here numerous times (double digits) for lunch.
Everythint is clean, ordered and the food has been just perfect.
In the local area, you have options, but lunch gets busy. This Dennys has never let me down in terms of wait time, fast and efficient.
Now a special shout out to the wait staff, Ener in particular. They are attentive with the coffee, bring extra napkins as needed, are there when you need them and fade into the background when you don’t.
I don’t feel rushed here, comfortable. I can read my paper in peace and get some great service and a wonderful value for food.
Don’t need a $ 3 coffee from down the road, and a $ 6 sandwich, for lunch. I can come here, walk out the door relaxed and full for under $ 10.
Great people and place.

Not exactly sure how to rate this. It’s a Denny’s. You know exactly what you’re getting into. Super cheap Grand Slams. They can be $ 5 if you know how to navigate the menu right (if this is one of your advertised skills, though, I feel somewhat sorry for you).
The food comes out not looking anything like the delectable photos from the menu, but again, this is Denny’s we’re talking about.
Eating at Denny’s is perfectly fine. But the true shame is when you find yourself at one of these establishments when you’re stone cold sober. It’s just depressing. I would not wish that fate upon my worst enemy.
This is a restaurant where you go after a night on the town getting completely wasted and then you have a sudden craving for obscene amounts of grease. This is where Denny’s truly shines. The way they treat the inebriated is truly award-​worthy. The sheer amount of patience that is required to repeatedly take orders from someone who can barely mumble or stay awake or could even start yelling and causing a scene at a moment’s notice is inspirational. Maybe that’s why the food is so awful normally; anything tastes amazing when you’re smashed. Denny’s gets the extra star just for being so drunk-​friendly.

HEALTH HAZARD. i have pretty low standards for breakfast, but when you see this many insects, both alive and dead, you should FLEE (pun intended).
## dozen little mothlike flying bugs and baby flies and little ones with wings, gnats along the window.
### dead bug carcasses underneath and behind the salt/​pepper shakers and sugar/​sweetner holdders
## coffee brought in dirty cup, ew! lip prints still visible!
# dark carpeting under tables littered with bits of food and trash
# greasy handprints everywhere
# phone just ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing. no one to answer it.
* server Fidel working very hard, great service, nice smile, friendly and generous.
I give up.
