Denny’s

I see a lot of extremes on the reviews here, love it or hate it and the most common theme is the quality of service.
I have been many times. I’ve always enjoyed the food I’ve received and most of the time we get our food without too long of a wait. There is a great disparity in the quality of the servers however. I’ve had great service from Beebee and another lady, mediocre service from a couple others and the worst service possible from Caroline. Caroline wasn’t wearing a name tag but I heard Beebee call her that. Caroline appeared hungover from too much late night partying. She wrote the orders wrong on the ticket and portrayed an attitude of indifference. After getting the correct food out to us, she disappeared. We were the only table she had customers at. My son accidentally knocked over my wife’s drink onto her food, drenching it. I wanted her food remade and didn’t mind paying for the 2^nd plate as it was our fault. We kept looking around and waiting for Caroline to appear. After a long wait I finally spoke to Beebee (who we always insist on now) and she got Caroline out from the back. Caroline was visibly agitated with having to deal with it. She was merely going to remove her plate and have more made. I told her I needed either some more napkins, paper towels or a rag and I would wipe up all the tea from the table myself. She grabbed some napkins and proceeded to sop the water up and then lifted the dripping napkins over my son’s plate dripping it all over his food seemingly oblivious to what was happening. My wife got her new plate of food and she and I shared with my son.
This location desperately needs a manager who will start managing the servers and replace the rotten apples.

Old faithful. America’s diner. Good food, great prices. Our server was super nice and accommodating. Definitely a great place for casual dining. Three stars because on occasion, our orders have gotten messed up. This visit, I got the wrong fries (I ordered seasoned). :)

Just sad. Out of wheat toast. Waited forever for our silverware. Watched the sever put our food down on another table so that server could fill that tables coffees. Orders came out all wrong. Never again!

For an all American breakfast Denny’s is always a good stop, good price especially when you can download a coupon online and get 15 to 25% discounts with much ease on your phone! Good taste overall, be specific on how you want your meats done… Unfortunately from the few times I’ve been here this year, service is poor during day and evening hours, the staffing seems to lack hustle, so be ready to have some slow service…

Denny’s offers very good food at a reasonable price. I’ve been to this location several times now and have yet to be disappointed.
The staff are nice and hospitable. I’m glad to see the restaurant is being kept clean as well. So far it still looks like it did when it first opened. Keep it up.

Great breakfast this morning. Service was wonderful! Arreyunnia was our server. She made us feel welcome and at home.

Love it! The food is great and I’ve just about tried everything on the menu by now. One section I don’t care for is the dessert, but there’s so much food who really needs to push it? Staff is friendly.

Denny’s!!! I am SO glad you are back!!! What’s it been? 10, 15 years since you left the ‘Port City? OMG!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you… When I heard that Denny’s was coming back to town I KNEW I was gonna be all over that place like white on rice, like black on black-​eyed peas… I had some business over in this side of town for a whole week, so I hit this place up. I went in early in the morning on a weekday, it was the first meal of my 41^st birthday! I had the Grand Slam Slugger (2 eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, grits) and it was fantastic!!! Patrick was my waiter and he was quite possibly one of the best waiters I have ever had serve me! Seriously! He was very alert to anything that was lacking and he was funny and quite lively considering the fact that it was early and it was surprisingly slow in the restaurant (‘Sup with dat Mansfield Road… You get a great, awesome, cool restaurant in your area (the only one in this area, after all these years, brand new, and you’re gonna leave it empty like that? You better get on that place!) …Anyway, welcome back home Denny’s I hope you stay a long while this time around… And give Patrick a raise and keep him around, he might make a good manager one day.

When I heard we were finally getting a Denny’s again I was ecstatic! I so missed the one on Monkhouse. Food was great as always. The service was good. You could tell some people were new to serving, but nothing unusual for a new restaurant. Overall, everything was great & I’m happy they’re back!
