Let's see, 7 in the morning, 50 degrees outside, and the air conditioner is blowing cold air in the restaurant. hands are freezing, food's getting cold, the only one who can adjust it is the manager who is 'stuck behind the grill' and can't stop for one second the punch a button so we can enjoy a warm meal without being bundled in our jackets and blowing on or hands on to warm them up. Bad, sad, no good. Would give NO star if it would let me :-/ read more

Passing by from San Diego, bad service. Get seated, waitress was MIA after we ordered another server came w our coffees, 2 parties next to us hit seated & ordered after us, their food got served 1st, service based on race huh? We had to hunt down for utensils, ask for additional creamers after our refill. Upon checking out, I saw their Value Menus hidden away at the station where guests check in, they were purposely hiding those menus forcing us to order from the reg menu w/o the available option. Restroom out of toilet paper. Corporate Management should check this business. Will never comeback to this spot, glad I live in San Diego. read more

We walked in and were immediately greeted and seated. My husband almost instantly commented on how nice and clean this location is. The staff was very friendly and attentive and the food was delicious. I built my own grand slam and hubby got a french toast slam. Everything was great! This Denny's is definitely one of the better ones we've been to. read more

We have meals in this Denny's #7805 because it is clean, excellent server Shade. He is fast, attentive, very good service overall. We always ask for Shade. read more

i am angry because i went to this location to eat a nice lunch with my family but our waitress was NOT wearing a mask and had only a plastic cover which does nothing because she would still breathe on us. I do not want to go somewhere to eat and feel as unsafe as i did then. If she has the virus she has now spread it to everyone she's been in contact with and that makes me very uncomfortable with denny's and with this irresponsibility. i will remember this. read more

Server Amy was great and super friendly. She took our order immediately and made us feel so welcomed. Her attention to detail and constant checking in on us made our dining experience delightful. Food was fresh and served fresh off the grill, just to our liking! read more

Thank you Amelia for genuine above and beyond service and making us feel more then welcome.

Came here for breakfast one morning and this location was pretty empty so they sat us quick and thankfully our waitress was very friendly. I ordered a Caesar Chicken salad and my boyfriend ordered a grand slam. His order was good it looked good (he looked good) and I ended up getting a regular Caesar salad and the salad was terrifying, it looked old, soggy and i didn't take a picture because as soon as it was placed in front of me I immediately stated "what the hell is this?!" I just don't understand why they would serve such nasty salad to a customer.. Apparently all the salad was on a recall?? ..( I DON'T CARE ) more so of a reason to just tell the customer .. " Sorry but at this present moment we don't have salad " i ended up getting a veggie omelette that only contained a slice of Swiss cheese, cubes of squash and well bottom line..... it wasn't appetizing.... in my head i thought "that's what i get for wanting vegetables". I am not a fan of this location. read more

Denny's - Veggie omelette.. nope didnt finish it... potatoes were okay.. - Diners Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Best Dennys in town! Only one I'll take my family to! Anessa is the manager. She loves her customers and takes care of her team!

Let me tell you this Denny's is about the best one they have in Bakersfield The waitress was consistent asking how the food was made sure we had refills even knew what my son wanted when he was just talking about it this would be the one to hit if you're ever in town right off the freeway it's on Merle Haggard read more

Went for lunch on a Saturday. Place was super busy, but we had excellent service from Martin. He was super attentive even though he was serving several tables at once. Food was great! Will definitely go back when in the area. read more

Horrible experience. Food was way overdone I got the countryfried steak skillet, eggs were overdone it was supposed to come w red skin potatoes it was mixed w their burger fries that looked like they were there since last night, they tasted burnt. Another skillet was a conpletely disaster overdone eggs, sausage was burnt NOT WELL DONE we sent it back & they brought it back when we were all done .. The waitress had good service she apologized for everything & claimed that there was only ONE COOK -_- This place needs BETTER MANAGEMENT from the looks of it they were short on staff I only saw 2 waitresses running around & they even asked the HOST "TO REMOVE THE SAUSAGE FROM THEIR PLATE BECAUSE ITS TOO OVERDONE" I didnt know sausages were meant to be extra CHARED & that made them considered "well done" Dont eat here. read more

Denny's - Way over cooked eggs & burned red skin tomatoes!! AND BURNT SAUSAGE not pictured because we sent it back! - Diners Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I went this morning to place a to go order. A woman said "what can I get for you" and once I said I wanted to place a to go order. She says "oh and walked away" 10 minutes goes by another man walks in behind me. She helps him before getting to myself. I just walked out at this point. I usually have great service here, but nope not today. Guess who's not getting any breakfast for work now. read more

If there's only one thing about Denny's it's that it is consistent. You go in with a certain level of expectations and it consistently delivers. Also they're open pretty much all the time which is super convenient for roadtrips that stretch into the night or early morning meals at the start of an adventure. A better option than McDonald's if you're not in a super hurry. American food, straightforward. $2,$4,$6,$8 menu is where I head to. Feeling hungry for breakfast food? Get two of the $4 everyday value slam, (2 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 pancakes). read more

We had a great experience and wonderful service today at this Denny's location. Liz was our waitress and she was perfect from beginning to end. She was attentive and checked in on us 'just the right amount.' My first impression of the facility was that it was airy and clean and as Covid-safe as a restaurant could be. Nice job! read more

All I have to say is WOW! First they are no policing for mask. Notice less then half the people coming in with no mask. Staff had shield with no mask. Servers had no gloves or mask just a shield. Stuff still come out the bottom onto your food with a shield. Servers going from one table to another without sanitizing hands. People letting there kids wonder around with no mask. People cleaning tables should have on gloves on. Let's just say all bad. I could go on and on. But I will stop. Needs improvement, better off eating at home. read more

Great service by Liz! Food was out fast, and it was delicious. 5 people and she was able to remember everyone's order to specifics without even writing it down. read more

Take that "Open 24 Hours" sign down. You guys closed at midnight on a Monday night. Last night, I placed on online order that said it would be ready for pick up at midnight. I arrived to the location on time and was greeted with a woman yelling "We're closed! Can't she see the sign on the door!?" I was already welcomed rudely and then even worse, they gave my online order away to an Uber delivery driver. The manager just said they didn't have the salad and couldn't make me a new one because of the time. He issued me a refund and waisted me driving 20 minutes from home to pick up an order that was irresponsibly given away. read more

Normally for the few late nite breakfast places we have in this town it's not bad but last Saturday nite ordered lemon meringue pie & friend ordered a hot fudge sundae. I noticed on the pie a green spot & my friends sundae had a gob of chocolate that looked like it had been dropped on the floor then slapped on melted ice cream, the green spot was mold on the pie . Awful! How can you not see mold or not use real hot fudge on frozen ice cream? Check your food! read more

Service sucks. Took 30 min for toast and eggs at 5am. We were the only ones there. Made us late to work. I'm starting to see a pattern with Denny's. Service sucks read more

food was great! and Jessi was very quick to serve us and very attentive to anything we needed! thanks restaurant was clean

The staff was very helpful and attentive. They made sure to accommodate my alterations for mine and my sons diets. Coffee was filled often, and was hot and fresh. The restaurant was clean as well as the high chair. We will be back. read more

First time at this Denny's. After waiting for 40mins. The food arrived, was told they had 1 cook and 1 server!!! WTF!! Poor management at this place. Ive been to other Denny's on a weekend packed to the rim with people but yet tonight, on a Monday night you'd expect service to come quickly and yet after 40 mins we finally got our food. My wife's chicken caesar had old lettuce and had to be returned. Dont think im ever stopping at this Dennys. Laters! read more

Very cold reception Been here 35 minutes still waiting for an order and waiter is very nice definitely got a tip him but the rest of it's very cold read more

Understaffed is a great description of this place. Servers are polite, however, they seem overwhelmed. One guy was trying to handle an entire station. He was doing the best he could with what little help he had. Management needs to step it up here. I observed several managers and several employees smoking outside. Looks awful and unprofessional. Do they not provide a smoking area for employees away from customers?? I doubt we will be back. We came back again on another night and it was the same exact chaos. It appears that the cooks are either undertrained or possibly not enough cooks to handle the flow of orders coming to the kitchen. We understood that it was rather busy but to wait over an hour for the food is ridiculous to say the least. It appears that Management blames their servers for many issues. A server does not cook the food, merely takes an order. We see alot of staff change at this location. We feel bad for how some of the staff here are treated. We will not be back again. read more

Its happend 3 times- Hate ordering something and they're out! Wait time has been longer than average. This Denny's is close to home, yet I choose to travel 10 extra minutes to a different location for better service. read more

Crystal was great friendly the service was awesome. Food was good I had French toast and eggs with a black coffee

Alice served us and she was awesome however the back of the house was absolutely horrible I got a chicken Caesar salad and my whole family had eaten there entrees before I even got my salad needless to say I had her make it to go...never again will I come to this place read more

Slow service , it took probably more than 15 minutes to take my order and 30 minutes to serve the food . And when you get your food , it went downhill from there and disappointment is an understatement. The food I ordered is supposedly their premium pancakes called Tres Leches, doesn't look like what's it's pictured on menu and lacking sauce/ syrup and the pancakes were too "well done " almost burnt, just a scoop of horchata ice cream and whipped cream on the sides and that's it. Talk about supposedly "premium" pancakes lol. The breakfast that came with it is swimming in oil . The bacon and hash browns were burnt. The server guy isn't friendly at all, feels like he doesn't want to be there that night . Not even asking how my food was, just dropped the bill and that's the end of service . As a first time customer, this made quite an impression and won't come back nor recommend anyone I know to eat here . Comparing to their competitor ihop down Rosedale , their services and food quality is miles apart . read more

See all

Worst service I've ever gotten. Did an online order to pick up on my lunch. I arrived to pick it at the time I indicated I wanted the order to be ready by. I tell the host I'm there for an online pickup and she tells me the order barely went through and that it'd be another 7 min wait. I have a 30 min lunch. Drive alone is 6 mins. There's no way I could wait for it and have time to eat and get back on time. So I asked if I could just get a refund and go that I couldn't wait for it because I was on my lunch and needed to get back. The host had no idea what to do so she scrabbles to tell me that it had to be done online. I went online and contacted them to get my refund. After a day they finally replied and asks for the specific time and date and amount. I never got my refund. I emailed them again and didn't hear back from them. Don't order online. They'll keep your food and your money!!! read more

Very busy, but didn't have to wait to be seated. We ordered and got our food in less than 15 minutes. Food was great and service was excellent by Hailey !! read more

The service here is friendly and fast they are very attentive. Me and my husband both had the garlic butter steak with side salad and squash. It was so delicious I had them ad bell peppers and sauteed onions to the top of my steak and it really just hit the spot! I would have never thought I could get a good steak at a Denny's but it was tender and juicy. All praise the cook at Denny's! read more

We visited the Dennys on 7th standard. I have not had a bad experience yet. We sat eight away and the server was awesome. The food was good 2. It wasn't busy at all when we went which made it nice because it was pretty quiet. I would drive extra just to go there and eat. read more
