How can you go wrong at Denny's? Very reasonable prices, large variety of breakfast items and our waitress Daxaben who couldn't be more attentive. My new go to restaurant for breakfast. read more

I love this Dennys! My husband and I comforted for breakfast and their Super Slam for $8. All the servers are great! Today Angel helped us and he is always friendly and attentive. read more

Over the weekend, I ordered two Original Grand Slams and a T-Bone dinner with a side of hash browns and broccoli. The sides were whatever. The broccoli was mushy and salty, and the hash browns were oily. I asked for my steak medium, but I probably should've gone rare, considering how it came out, and Denny's is less than 10 minutes away from where I live. The steak was dry and overcooked. I'm thinking it kept cooking in the to-go container since it didn't get a chance to rest, which I expected might happen, but regardless, it did not hit the spot. I honestly could've made a better one at home, but when there are no ingredients at home, and it's freezing outside, delivery is the way to go. The pancakes were solid, though. When I actually go in person, I usually have a better experience with both food and service, but delivery is a hard pass for me from now on. read more

The food was raw. The service was fine but we couldn't eat the food at all. Both plates had pancakes with raw centers and my friend had undercooked bacon and potatoes. This is the second time I've had a bad experience here. The last time the wait was an hour for food for some reason and this time they informed us that they had to call the shift because they had left the building. We were there at 11 pm on Sunday 5/10/26 read more

Alex greeted us when we walked in and we were pleasantly surprised to learn that Tuesdays kids eat free. My 10 year old daughter was not hungry so we took her meal to go. She picked chicken strips and a side salad. She loved it! My husband and I ordered the All America Slam for $12.99 and the second one was $1 so yummy! We forgot to take a picture because we were so hungry and did not think about it until after we ate! Highly recommend this location! Everyone is nice and the portion sizes are large! Pancakes filled the plate! Alex kept our beverages full and checked in with us several times! Come see him on Tuesday night and bring the kids!! read more

Right next to the hotel so great for a late night snack?! NO, stomach was feeling terrible after so bad decision for both of us :(.... Food quality and cleanliness probably needs improving. Denny's is no longer an option in the future. read more

Scenario: Graduation night May 20 2025. The placed was full of customers awaiting availability to be seated . It appeared that they were understaffed and outmanned. Larry the manager and Pablo were very professional in their duties and responsibilities by accommodating a party 12. These two seemed to be running the whole show , heck they were probably cooking the orders as well. Great job and much appreciated by myself and family. BRAVO ZULO read more

"It's an American Institution!" Denny's Arlington Heights is a pretty nice location. The food is always pretty good here, service can sometimes be a bit slow but they're always pretty friendly. Can't beat the omelette and hash browns - classic meal but with inflation I'd recommend the Grand Slam and I believe kids eat free on Tuesdays you just can't beat that. Thanks for staying reasonable with your prices Denny's. read more

For me, this is a solid Denny's location when I'm looking for reasonably priced diner food that will fill me up near the southern Arlington Heights area. The seating is spacious though maybe a little dated at the moment. Service is quick, friendly, and efficient, Portion sizes are fairly generous. The parking setup is slightly confusing as this feels like it's in a little more cramped spot than many other Denny's locations, but there's plenty of it. In terms of cooking, this is a bit better than other Denny's I've visited in that the food comes out very hot, there are some noticable textures like crisp hash browns and crisp edges on pancakes, and the presentation is fairly good. The food also seems a bit less greasy overall than some other Denny's locations that I've been to. Overall, good option for a quick and reasonably priced meal if you're looking for diner food in the area. There's plenty of options to satisfy any craving. read more

I come in once a month from the other side of Chicago to meet a friend for breakfast, and every time (usually Alex) we have great service! The food is fine and the restaurant is always clean. We know what we're going to expect, and for that, we don't change restaurants. #Familiarity read more

My senior friends meet up here every couple of months. They have a senior menu which definitely helps these days. The food is good. We all love their grain pancakes. Forgive me if I have the name of the pancakes wrong. But looking at the menu, I'm sure you'll figure the right name. The waitresses are fabulous. They remind me of the old days diner waitresses. Yelp wants me to mention about the ambiance. So... I certainly wouldn't bring a special someone here if you're really trying to make a big impression on them. However, if you've been up with them all night and want to catch some breakfast. Here's the place. read more

Just went here for a snack with my daughter at night to get food to go. There was No cars in the lot and no one in the restaurant. We order season fries, hash browns and zesty nachos. Check and ordering was smooth however the food was terrible. I would think with the place being slow and not busy the food would be good quality. My daughter didn't even want to eat her food because it was nasty. Hash browns did not look or taste cooked at all. The season fries were burnt. I asked for extra sour cream for nachos and did not rcv it. This has to be the worst tasting food I've had at a restaurant ever honestly. I am very disappointed with how the food came out. I should have checked it before I left the restaurant. Because I would have asked for at least the hash browns to be cooked better. I usually do not write reviews unless something is really great or really bad. This was extremely bad. I will probably never eat dennys again. read more

My husband and I met a friend at this Arlington Heights Denny's. It had been a while since I've been to a Denny's. I forgot how good the food here could be. I got the chocolate shake and the cinnamon pancake slam. The slam comes with eggs, hash browns, bacon, and sausage. The shake was rich and sweet. The cinnamon pancakes were fantastic and may be my new favorite item there. The booth was small and cramped, and the server could have come over a couple of more times, but overall, we had a good experience. I look forward to coming back to Denny's. read more

I want to make a complaint of the waiter last night around 2 am on dec 18 harassed my friend and she felt very uncomfortable also over heard him say "once those 2 dumb bitch leave we will close so no body fucken enters" if this is the type of service that you guys give you guys lost a customer. read more

I was here the other day and my server was just wonderful. He was this older gentleman and was very attentive and kind! It made the experience really nice. The food itself was decent and the ambiance was good too but I also did come pretty early in the morning. Milkshake is always good too. Very good experience. read more

I love this location the staff is amazing and a big shoutout to Hannah S who served us way late in to the evening. We went to Dennys after a concert and it was the perfect ending to a fun night. Fresh food, great service we didn't have to ask for anything she was on top of things. Also the place is really clean! We will be back soon. read more

Haven't been to a Denny's for a while, but my sister said this one is pretty good with a nice variety on their menu. We sat down for a late lunch (early dinner) and the restaurant was pretty empty. Service was great with few customers, and our server was super friendly - and had awesome hair! ;-) The restaurant was on the cold side, but my niece and I didn't mind, and my wife and sister... well, dealt with it. The food was decent for the price. The accuracy, however, was pretty poor. Not sure if this was the order taking process, or the kitchen just doing whatever they wanted to do. One of us ordered seasoned fries - came out regular. Another ordered cheddar cheese and mayo on the cheeseburger - came with American and no mayo. Also asked for fries "well done" - came regular, even a bit soggy and just warm. Otherwise... accurate! :-\ So... it's a Denny's. Solid, predictable meals with good service. Special orders or requests are not strong. If you want what they have, as they have it, come on in! Otherwise... patience is a virtue. read more

Great food Great service by Great people everytime. Comfortable and clean. I love being here.

Always a wonderful experience at this Denny's location! Not only is the service quick and friendly, the food is actually so flavorful. Every entree I've had here is a good size and is well worth the price, especially when compared to the subpar quality of food at competitors like IHOP. Would gladly come back here for breakfast or lunch again! read more

This restaurant in particular, regardless of how busy it is, always has a great service, the whole team is very friendly. I have been going here for a long time with my daughter and we always ask for Javier if avaliable. Not to discredit the rest of the team at all everyone is super friendly, it's just that he provides a great service, he is attention to detail oriented and he has a great sense of humor in a very healthy and family oriented way. I give the whole team and the food a 10 out of 10 . read more

service is great, and food is good, especially the pancakes!!!michael is a very experienced waiter and knows his customers!!!

Big kudos to Al and Hannah for our 1am delivery of a special doggy meal for Gracie and a snack for us. We were bumped from a flight with our dog, had to spend the night in Chicago, and didn't have dog food! I called to see what Denny's Arlington Heights, IL, (17 w Algonquin Rd) could do. Al gave it the go ahead; Hannah explained what to order on GrubHub and said, we got you. It was so easy! Gracie loved it, and we loved that it was healthy and safe for Gracie! PS It was chicken and rice. Fruit and salad for the humans. read more

We go here every Thursday, food great and we love our server Hannah. Doesn't hurt the wallet either. Nice feel to the store and clean too.

There's an older white lady who works the midnight shift, my sons and I came in and waitted so we can be seated or seen..... we where standing right by the register, this employee act as if she was super busy counting money on her register. she leaves the register "I'm thinking she coming back to help me to be seated" 15-20mins later she comes back and asks me are we waiting for a pickup.... " I was so mad, I told her that it's ok we waitted to long to get service and we are leaving, I could of yelled at this lady but my kids are with me.....other then that, there was another person waiting for pickup and she told him that when she asks a question he needs to know how to answesr back. this person....coming from an off duty deputy sheriff.... read more

Great and friendly service from Hannah, always positive. The food is solid. The place is relaxed.

My friend and I dined on New Year's eve and our experience was rather Lovely. We were seated right away by our incredibly kind server Mario! He Treated us with great fast paced service. And He was very considerate of how our experience was going. He made sure our waters were always filled and that everything was tasting well with the food. The food was great and for the price it was definitely worth it. Our booth was clean and prepped for us upon arriving. We will definitely be returning! :) read more

I had one little clump of hash browns with two eggs that were supposed to be sunny side up and were black on bottom and zero yolk at all. They should be embarrassed. We are locals and come here all the time but tonight our carry out was by far the worst yet. The o honestly look at the pathetic horrible meal and still package it to serve is embarrassing. read more

The Host and Hostess were friendly and welcoming. I liked that the booths were partitioned so it wasn't easy to listen in on other conversations. It was clean and condiments were well supplied. As for the food, the coffee was great--nice and hot, but the hashbrowns and eggs had way too much butter on them. We've dined at Denny's at several locations before and I'd been able to get a gluten free English muffin but they no longer offer them. Unfortunately I wasn't able to have a substitution. read more
