For a variety of foods at any time of day, Denny's is almost always the go to spot for my friends and I. While lately the service has been a little less than friendly, the food has yet to change. Denny's has a huge menu with everything from breakfast to burritos, but I tend to always gravitate toward their Fried Cheese Melt. The Fried Cheese Melt is a basic grilled cheese with mozzarella sticks stuffed into it and a side of fries as well. All of the food in the Fried Cheese Melt meal comes at an extremely low price of $4. The menu is full of great foods and drinks just like this, and very few of them break the price of $10 per person. When you want to eat for cheap, or just want a good meal, Denny's is a great place to go. Unless you hit them on an off night, I can't recommend Denny's enough to anyone near one. They may not be few in numbers, but obviously there's a reason for that. read more

So we stayed in the Phoenix inn next door. Free room service gave a a tip when they delivered wish we wouldn't have. I asked for side of ranch and blue cheese didn't get that. No napkins excuse me it's delivered. And cheese sticks on there side. Delivery guy didn't care. Be nice to have at least ketchup for the fry's.had to use Kleenex for napkins. read more

this was a to-go order. I ordered a double cheese burger and I eliminated pickles and tomatoes and added bacon.......NOT that hard right! well apparently so, there were pickles which I truly dislike. It was a huge grease ball, I took a bit and grease came running down my arm, it was gross! the size of the burger was awesome, but it was thrown together like trash...and I've had denny's burgers before and they were awesome. this location not so much. the fries were COLD and not very much, it was a lame amount. my friend ordered and sandwich and it was a huge grease mess and she got a small amount of fries with her order also. it was horrible all around, and this is like the 3rd bad to-go order I've gotten from this location! read more

While I understand weekend mornings are chaotic during a breakfast rush, waiting 30 mins for uncooked eggs is ridiculous. I send the uncooked eggs back only to be totally forgotten about. So while my family ate breakfast I waited patiently for eggs that never came. This is just one of the reasons Elmer's is better. read more

Terrible exper sat outside waiting to be called for 30 minutes just to go inside and find out my name was crossed out the list and was told we can wait another 30 minutes if we want read more

Love this place it has the nicest customers and the food is great family friendly and if your not into the family thing there's a lounge in the back with the best staff to take care if u with great daily speicals read more

First time at Denny's in about 2 years, and what a pleasant surprise. The service was immediate and attentive. My breakfast was cooked perfectly and delivered hot. What more could you ask for going to breakfast restaurant. Looks like the dinner menu is improved also and might get there to try sometime in the future. read more

This is a clean, well managed Denny's. Servers were taking temperatures, masks were being worn and good cleaning protocols were being followed. The food was exactly as one would expect for Denny's. 2 sausages, 2 bacon, 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, hash browns, coffee and orange juice for eight bucks. Phenomenal price for breakfast. The servers were attentive. I never saw the bottom of my coffee. read more

This place has gotten so bad I had to order pizza in the sports bar because dinner takes over an hour now. The bar is always out of everything. I guess that's what happens when you make your worst bartenders managers read more

Outrageous!! Above and beyond! Denny's #7835, Spicer Road, exit 233 on I5, Albany, OR. Eclipse madness? Not here. Pulled in at 6am, place was swamped. Manager mentioned to the crowd waiting that the lounge was open. Thanks to Charlie, Ray, Autumn, Emma, Terry, Juan and the rest of the crew, I enjoyed the $5.99 special breakfast in the bar, watching Eclipse coverage on 8 big screens and playing Keno. Unreal! Fantastic! This place is smack dab on the red line, center of the umbra, complete totality. Still here at 8am, sipping water and coffee waiting for what for some will be a once in a lifetime experience. Experiences at Denny's may vary. But my experience this morning will be remembered forever! Corporate, take note! These people came in early and rose to the occasion! Kudos to them!!! read more

My family had just gotten to Albany after driving 6 hours from Redding and my uncle mike that lives here got us checked in to the phenoix inn after we got everutkng up to our room we walked across the street and had dinner.... Our server was amazing and he stayed on top of everything... Food was great and the price wasn't to bad at all..... Keep up the good work with your servers... Definitely will be going back when we visit our family up here again.... You all rock read more

This is the most horrible dennys i have been to! My husband and i visited this location on my birthday on his lunch break since i happen to be in town. We were seated right away, but we sat and waited 10 minutes and we had not even been given water! There were about 3 workers just standing joking around with eachother. With two kids we just want to get in and out as fast as possible. This was only the second time we have been to this location, the first visit was not much better, we only stayed because i was pregnant and really wanted a milkshake. After 10 minutes we decided we did not have the time to wait and walked out! We went to red robin where we were seated and served our food within 15 minutes. We will NOT return to the Albany dennys! read more

What the fuck is with "our kitchen is closed from midnight til 4 AM, cold food only" is this a new policy? Gonna call corporate tomorrow to find out, America's diner my ass read more

Steak night on Wednesday's is awesome! I brought my 11 year old in after work and he had the 8oz. sirloin dinner. Just $9.99! He said "kid approved!" Absolutely hands down best steak in town. The 13 oz. T-bone is just around 13 bucks! read more

Came here to have a decent breakfast with family and were very disappointed. My son and I got the country fried steak plate and both of our hash browns and eggs were lukewarm, we had to send our sons eggs back after waiting forever to finally flag someone down to help us. The country fried steak was good. My wife got the French toast slam she said it would of been good if it was more than lukewarm. The bacon was sadly thin like rice paper and cold. It seems that our meal was rushed, they were busy, but that's no excuse. Now we wait for our ticket so we can move on with our life. Also, the side of Honey Jalapeño bacon 2 slices for $3.59 not worth it! I thought the menu said 4 slices for $3.59 but when I asked the server he told me "No just 2". Well that's a ripoff! read more

Decent food good service quick seating pleasant workers. Has bar and video poker good location on i5 it's my daughter's favorite place to eat. Place has gotten a lot better with new management I recommend it if you want a quick sit in or to go meal read more

I got there and the restaurant wasn't very busy at all. The wait staff was friendly, but so friendly that my food was on the line getting cold while they were chatting away with people paying their check. Most of the food was good, but the ham was all but inedible. I needed to get to work so I attempted to pay the check, just to find out that I couldn't until the manager got in because I wanted to use a credit card. The Manager was late getting in an walked right past me so that he could open the bar for the people waiting at 7:00am to get in. When I told him that I was late for work because he didn't get to work on time, he just dismissed it without hardly even thinking about it. The food is good, but if you have to be anywhere anytime soon, don't go to this Denny's read more

Came in here late night. The food I had was ok. It's Denny's. Food came fast. My waitress was excellent and was really working hard. If only more wait staff could learn from her. I will be back. read more

Great service, but my toast was a little stale. Also always order you bacon and sausage well done, because the one time I didn't it looked uncooked. read more

We had great server, she was super busy but still made sure she asked us if we needed anything almost everytime we walked by. Everything was quick, cooked well and really tasty. Plus we were seated immediately during a Saturday morning. And of course you can't beat Denny's prices. read more

For a Denny's this place is great. I have always gotten excellent service and my food fast. It may help that I always tip generously cause these guys work hard, and I always order the 6.99 breakfast special, and I know it is worth more than that. Sorry about that run-on sentence. Yes, it is greasy diner food and I don't expect excellent food, but for what it is, it is great. I think it is one of the best I have been too. Don't expect fine dining here, it's a Denny's. read more

Coming into the restaurant, we weren't greeted by our waitress but rather asked, "two?" asked for our drink order before reaching the table. The open kitchen revealed an unpleasant manager, complaining about employees' weak performance and how customers shouldn't expect a five star experience. Food took for-EVER to come out and was warm at best. My eggs in a basket were burned, and our requested French toast toppings, which we were charged for, did not come. Not a pleasant experience, and as a former waitress I wouldn't ever put this neglect on a table. read more

I'm done with Denny's. I have been a Denny's customer for over 30 years, since my kids were small. We used to go on long road trips and we could count on Denny's to be kid-friendly, and provide decently predictable food as well as bottomless cups of coffee. After many recent visits to Denny's in Albany, Oregon, too many disappointments lead me to part ways with them forever. Mother's Day was the last nail in the coffin. As on other visits, too many details were overlooked, and the food came to the table cold. We arrived very early Sunday morning, the restaurant was not even half filled. We were seated quickly, and a hostess brought coffee and creamer. So far, so good, right? We perused the menu, made our selections, our server came in very timely fashion to take our orders as well as make a couple of suggestions. Very personable and knows her menu. Then everything went downhill. We sat for 40 minutes waiting for our food, not once in that time did anyone come to re-fill our coffee. Nor did anyone come to explain why it was taking so long to get food to our table. It's breakfast...it doesn't take that long to grill some scrambled eggs and hash browns. People who came in AFTER us got served BEFORE us. Finally, when the food did arrive, the server quickly asked if we needed anything and I asked for green tabasco/Louisiana sauce. She brought it and rushed away before we could draw a breath to speak! One of us had ordered a Grand Slam breakfast, with pancakes, but the pancakes came without the usual scoop of margarine/butter. The other of us ordered a breakfast that was supposed to come with choice of toast, an English muffin had been requested. That was also missing. The food was lukewarm, not hot. Not a good thing when one is all set for sizzling hot hash browns! Not disastrous, but no one ever came back to the table to ask if everything was all right, and the servers were not easy to flag down. This is a snapshot of our last few visits. Cold food, missing items, servers too busy to care, even when we can get someone to acknowledge a missing item and offer to get it, it never comes. There is no excuse for habitual oversights such as these, especially when the restaurant is NOT FULL. What is that definition of insanity? Doing the same thing in the same way and expecting a different result? Well, it would be insanity to expect anything more from this Denny's than I've gotten the last few times. I gave them several chances and they let me down every time. No more Denny's for me, ever. read more

Good food at good prices. Great people working here at 5:30AM on Sunday mornings. And to MB who took his family to Denny's on Mother's Day.... you're missing the point of Denny's. read more

Walked over from our hotel where we were waiting for motorcycle repairs. Did not have big expectations it was just a Denny's after all. Had diner in the lounge and was pleasantly surprised.. Food and service were great and it had a grown up atmosphere. Will stop in again if back in town. read more

worst service EVER!!! I order a moon over my hammy and guess what guys there's a big disgusting LONG HAIR!! In it. Manager had the balls of asking me if I want it the same thing ? Really?? Unprofessional personal ever! N he ask me if I want it off my bill? Why would I paid for a Disgusting LONG HAIR NEVER COMING BACK HERE!! read more

First time in oregon. Stopped in at 4am and was greeted by charlie, great service. Great food. Even offered us some dessert in the house. Great 4am experience at dennys. read more

My last experience at Denny's was not the best. The food there is okay. Nothing too great but for a Denny's my expectations aren't too high. As for the last time I visited, it was a very busy saturday at lunch time, so I understand the business and stress during the lunch hour. But, we had to wait so long even to get our waters. We had 4 different servers including a manager who asked us if someone was getting our drinks and we had told him we thought so a while ago and it still took a couple more waitresses after him to actually go run directly and grab us our drinks. Other than that I haven't had too bad of an experience. Just would like the service to be more friendly and on top of it. It has seemed to dwindle of the years. But a lot of my friends still love to go here. I just don't get too hyped up over it. read more

This was probably the best tasting card board I have ever eaten... However I ordered bacon but it must have been mislabeled on the menu. I do not understand why so many people eat at this place as it has to be the worst quality food in albany! read more

Lots of disappointed Vets at Denny's Albany today. No free Breakfast, Server said that it was yesterday? I wonder if they will be having Thanksgiving dinner the day after or the day before Thanksgiving?... read more

Loved my skillet. Chelsea was very nice and was taking good care of my table. Thank you Chelsea.

Food is pretty good and arrives somewhat quickly. If it's super busy you may have to be patient and wait, like anywhere else you would go. We eat here regularly and have tried many of the various dishes, from breakfast, lunch and dinners...even dessert. It's all pretty good, some better than others, but that's because I'm picky, lol. The service is also good, sometimes it's not so great. Everyone has bad days I figure. At times it can get a little bit noisy, like the time there was a large group of cheerleaders from out of town and their coaches. That was not the norm for this particular restaurant. It's fairly priced and you get good sized portions depending on what you order. (I don't think that you get much when you order a skillet dinner. ) Overall it is a pretty decent place to go for a meal, no matter which time of the day or food you choose. read more

Disgusting! I ordered the chicken avocado Cesar salad. In the menu it looked delicious and fresh. When the waitress brought it to me, my mouth fell open it was so unappealing. I said this doesn't look like the one in the menu. She proceeded to tell me how she made it! The cook/chef had nothing to do with it! Instead of trying to take care of it herself, she went to get the manager. The manager came over, is everything alright? I said no not really, but I will do the best I can on this so called bowl of lettuce. She did not offer to comp it, or get me something different. I started to eat the chicken, overcooked and not fresh.....never going back there again. read more

I worked at albany dennys for 2 hours. Grease residue (like the kind that can buildup in a stove vent/hood or on a deep fryer) was on everything, and thick in a lot of places--the hand washing sinks were the worst. I used a spoon to scrape the grease residue off the hand washing sink and it peeled off in rubbery strips. Kitchen/grill area were worse. Egg pans, spatulas--everything I touched was sticky and greasy or covered in dried raw eggs. Even the legs on the ice machine had sticky grease. Black mold was running in big streaks on walls in dishwashing area, as well as under the dish table. Moldy food covered the underside of the dishwashing sinks. Old food pieces were stuck all over the walls. About 1/4 of the dishes put through the sanitizer came out dirty and the employee running the machine got mad when I sent the dirty dishes back to him. General manager told me they barely passed their last inspection. It seemed that no one cared that they were serving food in a nasty kitchen. I quit and told the manager that I would not serve anyone from that kitchen. I've seen several restaurant kitchens but I've never seen one this dirty. I hope this post keeps people from getting food poisioning read more

Service was great! . Tomatoes with a tinge of freezer burn, avocados that tasted like onions, a bun toasted to the savory taste of dirty grill and a flavorless smooshy-gooshy veggie burger.. Not even the cheese could rescue this.. The fries were good. read more

we got our table after 15 minutes and waited another 20 to order and a hour later we still don't have our food

Would be 5 but Andrew gave me the worst cup of water, there was 2 ice cubes when I asked for precisely 2 and a half.

I ordered the "thing burger", I was not impressed at all it was a little dry and $10.00. My friend got the club sandwich, toast was like a brick, and my brother got the grand slam and they burnt the break when they grilled it, it was straight black. I asked for a water and it took about 15 min, they didn't even refill it once. Let's just say $0 for tip. read more

good food but customer service was horrible. Every time I come here the kitchen and waiters are more concerned about messing around then taking care of the customers. Today the bar hostess was chatting at the booth behind me and as she headed back to the bar bumped into a waiter and they both bumped by baby girls high chair pushing her mouth into the table! The waiter walked away saying oh shes ok no worries and the bar lady just said oh sorry i think i scared her as she talked to my baby but did not even bother trying to talk to me and really apologize. The staff here need to pay attention to their customers and less time flirting and being stupid. Will not be returning to this dennys. read more

6 employees standing around... We finally just seated ourselves. Food was not good. Service was not great either then to top it off you have to practically beg someone to take your money because they seem to busy talking to do that too. read more
