    Lakesha provided excellent service! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. She had such a positive attitude and made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. Our food came out great, and she checked on us just the right amount without being overbearing. She definitely made our dining experience enjoyable. If you’re eating here, I highly recommend asking for Lakesha—you won’t be disappointed

      We had a nice dinner at Denny’s in Livingston Texas on 6/22/2026. Our server was Naomi B and she kept our coffee hot, full and did a great job. This was our first visit to this store and we will go back again while visiting Livingston.

      My wife and I ate lunch there. The staff were very polite and friendly. Our waitress was very personable and did a great job waiting on us. We ordered the Slam Burger and the House Salad. The food came out in a timely manner and was delicious. I would definitely will be back again.

      Dennys is a joke. The biggest laugh at this time is that on July 1st, 2026 Dennys abandoned their veteran discount across the board. A few days before the 250th celebration of this great country!! REALLY!!!! This action was a huge slap in the face for us veterans and VERY unAmerican action. Dennys should be ashamed of themselves and who, was the person(s) that made this happen and what were they thinking and where is their respect and honor for not only our veterans but the USA itself.. this is a major F U!!! to veterans and this great country.

      I suggest that this action recieves the proper response and one is to avoid eating at dennys and gathering people to make a statement about this dishonoring act toward the people who fought and died and were also highly affected for the rest of the lives. DENNYS YOU should leave this great country and to China or Russia or North Korea. You will be greatly received there.

      We stopped to have breakfast. Food took a very long time, and arrived cold. Hashbrowns burned on the top and undone in the middle. We ate it because we were on a schedule and like I stated the food took forever to get to us. Never going to Denny's again.

      Left waiting for food over an hour at Denny's Maricopa. Order was wrong, asked to speak with manager, was told she was cooking and wouldn't come out to see me. Horrible service.

      I went and ordered two T-bone steaks around midnight took him home ate them and no one went to bed and I had to get up around. I couldn’t make the bathroom. I had to vomit in the sink. Both me and my friend got food poisoning and I called to make a complaint today. They kept saying they call me back blah blah blah. "Don’t write a review because that’s our business as well." If I get food poisoning, it surely my business as well. They said they were gonna call me back in 10 minutes. They never called back. They just put off but went past the 30 day deadline. I couldn’t reverse the charge on my Mastercard.

      I told my neighbor about this. I got food poisoning there too so if you want some really good looking food that gives you food poisoning go to that Denny’s. I highly recommend Astra Amanda. She’s a manager that put me off put me off until I went past my card date. I’m just looking out for you guys. Don’t eat that food and I also wrote a Google review already and they took it down before I got posted so somehow they got that handled.

      Visited the Denny's Restaurant in Alexandria, Virginia # 7408 at approximately 8:30 a.m. The heat immediately hit your face, and I felt like it was 90 degrees. The server told me he would see what he could do when I asked why it was so hot. The owner is so stingy that they disregarded to turn on the air conditioner on one of the hottest days of the week. The food was good and the service was great. There was a toothpick holder when I went to pay for my meal up front, but it was totally empty. The person working behind the register simply shook her head when I asked about a toothpick.

      OK, I don’t do reviews but I live in Nacogdoches, I come in twice a week for the last six years. They’ve had their ups and downs, but things have really gotten bad in the last month. We had a great manager. I think he might’ve been a little hard on the employees, but he’s gone and the service is pretty bad. The food is still OK. I’ve been sitting here for 30 minutes. I have not received any food so I’m going to walk out.

      A friend of mine and I were on a road trip coming home from Los Angeles area over last weekend and we stopped at a Denny's to get breakfast. I believe it was in Indio. The breakfast was decent. I love the moons over my hammy and it was good. However, we both ordered a cup of coffee (something we were craving for 100 miles) and it tasted nothing like coffee. It was nothing more than a cup of hot brown water. It was terrible and another patron came to us when he heard us complaining about the coffee to our server, and told us that his was terrible. We sent the coffee back and they took it off of our bill, but I will never order coffee at Denny's again. This is a breakfast joint. Please get some decent coffee. We ended up driving down the street and getting a great cup of coffee at McDonald's for half the price.

      While the quality of the food is usually consistent with what you expect from Denny’s, the order accuracy at Warwick location needs improvement. I have had two consecutive orders with errors: one with a potato substitution error and another where both the bacon and potatoes were missing completely. I’m hoping management can work on a better verification process for to-go orders.

      I want to thank Denny's for nothing as they have taken my money again for nothing in exchange. Several times I have placed an order from their website only to arrive at the store and find that they are closed. I would like to know why you would let a customer order and not be available to produce the product that was sold and paid for. This has happened before, but I have since deleted my emails.

      I didn’t go to my local Denny’s for a while, not for any particular reason other than it’s pretty far away from home. About every 3-4 weeks me and my grandson go very near it when we get our haircuts so we started going there afterwards. I ordered the T-bone steak dinner a few times and it was perfect and delicious, as good as any I’ve eaten at the steak houses I frequent and the meal is much cheaper, I tried a sandwich with sides and it was great, I tried the fried fish dinner last night and it was really good (I’m often disappointed in fish in non seafood restaurants) but it was also perfect and delicious. The service is always fast and the servers are always nice and attentive. People who are reading old reviews from a year or two are doing themselves a disservice by not giving them a try.
