I will never ever ever ever go to this Denny's again!! Owner Michael is VERY rude! Situation: Went to breakfast with my mom. She had a coupon "buy one entree get one free". When ordering I had asked our waiter if the coupon was honored there. He said yes and to just give to the cashier when I pay and she will adjust it. Well, when I went to pay the bill, the cashier said they didn't honor it. I told her the waiter said they do buts it's okay, I'll just use my AARP and get the 15% off no biggy. As I was taking care of the bill I saw the manager there. So I was TRYING to tell him what happened..... just wanted to give some friendly customer service advice. So I start to explain the story....I told him I had this (show my coupon) at which he immediately, without even allowing me to speak, cut me off and said " We don't take that.!" Very rudely! I said " I know I understand that, if you give me a chance to speak I will finish." Then he tells me we have argued before about a coupon, and I tell him, I've never spoke to you before or ever used a coupon here before. (I don't know if he had me confused with someone else, he is pretty old). So I continue and say, " I had asked the waiter When I ordered if the coupon was honored here...". ONCE AGAIN he interrupts and says "He don't know! The cashier does". Again he cut me off before I could finish what I was gonna say. So AGAIN, I tell him, "Sir, you are so rude, can you please quit interrupting me and let me finish? I am the customer you should listen and not keep talking over me". He allows me to continue, so I try and finish what I was gonna say...."what I was gonna say before you interrupted me again is....maybe you should let your employee know they are not honored so you, him and the customer don't have this problem again." I wasn't asking him to honor my coupon or give me anything just some advise from someone who has 20+ years working with the public and customer service and going. It's sad that some establishments don't take pride in that anymore. Especially when I asked him his name, he said Michael, and I asked him if he was the manager and he said no he was the OWNER, WOW! You think he would have been more understanding if anything for the benefit of his business. I am a regular customer. Sometimes I come 2-3 days a week. With my whole family! I spend money here, but I guess that don't matter to him, there's so many Denny's, I will be changing the one I go to. He will never get another penny from me or my family. Michael may be the owner, may have lots of money, but he is one miserable person. Hire a REAL manager that knows how to handle customers. Retire and find your happiness so you don't take it out on your customers. The rest of the staff is good. read more

Love this Denny's! Servers are awesome! Always attentive and friendly! Only reason I'm giving 4 stars is the owner/manager (I believe his name is Michael)is a jerk!!! To customers and to employees!! He is beyond rude!!! Lucky for him his employees make it worth coming here. He is old and crotchety. read more

Horrible customer service... The guys serving us was an idiot.. We asked for a lumberjack slam with an order of French toast. While ordering we asked a simple question of "can we substitute the regular toast for French toast?" He said we could only sub the pancakes for French toast. So I said. "Never mind we will just add French toast to the order" then we received only one piece of French toast and no pancakes. Then we said we want the pancakes as well and The French ... Then he goes on that he is confused...and tries to make us feel stupid.. All I got to say is NEVER GO TO THIS DENNY'S.. I think the servers are on some kind of drug or cracked out... I'm surprised this Denny's is still in business. If your near the area just go find another Denny's. read more

There are so many things wrong with this Denny's where do I even start. First of all, there's a bar connected to the Denny's. When we we seated, we had to wait about 20 minutes to even have our drink orders taken. Our server looked pissed off to be taking our order like he probably just wanted to get back to drinking at the bar. I saw random people walking into the kitchen area. There were bar patrons just meandering around the restaurant in and out. When I got my coffee, I saw someone else's lipstick still on the rim of the cup and old coffee stains that hadn't been washed off. I got up and left. read more

We waited 30 minutes and nobody bother to help us. Never coming back to this place Rally bad service. The black waiter was mad he was working late. read more

Worst service ever...waited 50 min only got our drinks. Waiter never stopped by to check or let us know how much longer till we get our food. We left and honestly the place was dirty and the waiters were just talking to each other instead of tending to the customers. read more

This is another disappointing Carson restaurant, becoming so typical. The place is dirty, service is atrocious, wait time is infinite, and you can get better breakfast at the hamburger stand, real talk. Two stars because their super bird sandwich is the only thing they do get right here. read more

I have been coming to this location since I was a teenager, which is over 20 some odd years or more. Now in the last 3 years of moving back to Carson, I have experiences all kinds of stories of certain waiters and waitresses. I have gotten use to very less than stellar type of service which I have come to expect from a certain waiter and waitress which I believe have been in the service industry too damn long and should quit and do something else with their lives. You got the waiter at one point would not charge you for certain items because he wanted an extra tip. "You know I didn't charge you for dressing on your salad'' (thinking to myself a salad automatically comes with dressing). I am making this one up but it was usually silly things the waiter was not charging for and you would have ended up paying the waiter more in tip than the cost of the whatever you weren't charged for. And the follow-up/check back with this waiter is extra poor. Be sure to ask for everything up front but then again this waiter writes down NOTHING so the waiter is bound to miss something if too many details. Then you have the waitress that has been working probably at this Denny's since it first opened. I have seen this waitress usually on the morning shift working the breakfast bar area and booths over in that area. This waitress appears never to be happy and has a personality not conducive to the type of work being done (service industry which give tips). So my thoughts are why are you mad and its morning time. Now, I do not know if this waitress works the graveyard shift or what and by the time the morning rolls around I say 8-10am the not so pleasant attitude kicks in because of working a full shift already. You have to be able to separate out your feelings if at all possible. Now, I have seen that there are regulars who enjoy the waitresses sassy tude (attitude). Also, this waitress writes nothing done the few times we have been waited on and usually gets the order wrong or leaves something out and gets a little feisty tude when asked to bring what is forgotten or when something is wrong. You become afraid to ask for something that was missed or wrong because of the terrible vibes given off by this waitress. The last time this waitresses waited on us, there was a pad/pen in hand which was VERY surprising. The many other waiter/waitresses that work at this location are great. Never had any issues with them, just the two characters above. I have turned the experiences into jokes and stories to tell. I never had any issues with the food, it has been to same (pretty good) to me in all the locations I have been to in several states Proceed with caution to this location as this place is a gamble when it comes to service, you may come out losing. read more

We work across the street thought it would a great idea to call ahead of time place or order to go. Despite of calling and being told or order would be ready in 15 min it was not . Will not go there again service is yoo slow read more

Nasty nasty nasty!!!!! This place is FILTHY!!!!! From the stinky slick carpet to the dirty walls! Each time I go the restaurant is more dirty! The women's restroom is the pits!!! It smells horrible and is always dirty. I live around the corner and have been going there for years but now the place I use to frequent has become a disgusting mess! I personally knew the old owner Earl and he'll turn in his grave if he could see the status of it now. Clean up that place! I was there in the lounge watching the NBA Finals and I couldn't enjoy the game because of the filth surrounding me! Ugh I'll never eat there again! read more

this danny's is the worse it's so freaking horrible, bad service , and super dirty, we ordered our food and walked out when we realized how bad it was! never ever will we go back there, place should be shut down! read more

Food was ok coulda been better if the place didn't stink so much it's smelled like wet damped clothes in there this location has a very nasty smell the whole location so I know I wasn't tripping the floors u can smell the nasty the waitress that's the only good part about it she did her job just feel bad for them they gotta work in that stinky environment. read more

The waitress has horrible custom service. Everything my fiance ask for just threw on the table with no regard. My fiancé even said thank you ever time. And waitress didn't not acknowledge that. (elnora) was horrible as hell read more

Right when I walked in the restuarnt, the host did not greet me good morning, after i said, "Good morning" to her loud of enough.. On 12-11-2016 at 8:59.. Smh.. Im not judging Dennys for her bad custermer service.. If your having a bad day. Stay home with that negtive energy please.. My waitress was great! awsome serivice by elizethbe great job great food.. read more

My cousin and I didn't know where to go for breakfast...and yes, I know we could've of found something better but we didn't have a lot of time so we just drove and found, yes, this place...nothing bad to say because the food was good ( probably cuz I was really hungry) and the staff was very nice and helpful....that's all I have to say. read more

Stopped here before heading back home to AZ. Took forever to get drinks initially.. Sausage a little under done but otherwise ok I guess. Not thrilled with service and I'm not picky! Wanted a coffee refill but the waitress didn't come back until we were 3/4 done with our meals :( read more

great service, fast food. compliments to the chef ana our waitress la starr. ask for the $2 $4 $6 $8 menu, i think it's secret but it's lit tho so get it read more

Anytime I try to place a to go order, they ALWAYS put me on hold and they ALWAYS hang up the phone right after. Manager needs to schedule more people if it's that busy. read more

The worse service ever. Yalitza had the worse attitude, got mad because SHE got my order wrong, i was sitting near the Kitchen and heard her talking shit to the manager because i requested a manager and told me she wasn't coming back out to help . She then proceeded to walk by and rolled her eyes. Then when i asked for her name she took off her badge. When i was leaving the owner Michael didn't address the problem at ALLLLL. I'm disgusted with this place and his awful employee. When i payed for the bill i made eye contact with her in the kitchen and she called me a Bitch. I was shocked . This lil troll should be FIREEEEEED! I'll never go back. I will be contacting the BBB as well. read more

Being from out of town, I was surprised to find this Denny's has a "lounge " with a bar and entertainment. Service was decent for a late Friday night, food was good, and the restrooms were clean. I never thought I would ever give Denny's four stars, but this one deserved it. read more

I can see the concern of other Yelpers with wait times, etc. However, I've only been to this location during the week and usually in the mornings. There is hardly ever a wait, and the service isn't bad at all. I've enjoyed my experiences here and have had little to no problems with the quality of food or wait times. It would make sense that during a busier time, there would be a much longer wait or much slower service. Also, this is Denny's - you know what you are going to be eating and with what quality. If you are looking for a quick place to grab a decent breakfast - then this is the place to go. If you are on a strict time-constraint, I wouldn't gamble. I have yet to use the restrooms, but generally speaking, for a Denny's - it's average clean (I have seen way worse). read more

Just got finished having lunch at this Denny's with my co worker and all i can say is ehh. I ordered the $4 biscuits and gravy breakfast and a side of soup. I really enjoyed the loaded potato soup but i REALLY did not enjoy the biscuits and gravy. the gravy tasted really bland. My co worker on the other hand got the tailapia plate and she says it was really good. read more

On more than one occasion I've tried calling an order in and never do they answer. On top of that I just came in and the African American woman with the ponytail caught an attitude with me talking about "you're here now so just order". First of all my order would have been in and ready had someone answered the phone. There was no need to get smart. The newer employees really need to be trained in customer service. read more

I went late at night and I stood in front of the counter for 20 minutes and they did not seat us at all. They were busy granted but there were open seats that they could have given us a seat rather than make us stand and wait. Do not go late at night unless you want to be ignored. read more

Been here several times and keep being disappointed. Service is always slow. This last time was the last straw when the manager could care less about us expressing concern. They need to remember, IHOP is down the street! read more

Decent breakfast early mornings when noplace else is open. This one typically has specials that other locations don't always offer.

The service was so slow, only one cook full house, two server on a Wednesday night, my French toast wasn't even cook all the way after waiting 45 minutes, I'll never go there again. read more

I stepped into this place, no one greeted me. I stood by the empty cashier, and several people walked past me for like 10 mins. No one let me know I was going to helped in any time frame. I ended up having to eat across the street instead. Not coming back, not even for a second chance. I don't need an apology.......bye dennys! read more

This dennys is a normal stop but lately i dont know whats going on. Especially after this evenings choice to dine here. From their own mouth they have atleast one non employee as hostess and honestly from the way the food ended up i might assume the cook one or more arent employees or brand new first shift today .. No seasoning no flavor. One out of a total of 5 actually had flavor . The seasoned fries . what happen to the quality that use to be here all around in every category read more

I added an extra star because the food here is not so bad. My main issue is the staff. It seems to me like they are just in high school and gossip about each other. It's very obvious. I've had better Denny's try harder to work for that tip but here it's not worth it. Please rehire some professional. read more

I went here for breakfast with my family and we got seated rather quickly but no one ever came to take our order. The server never even got close to our table or acknowledged we were there. We waited patiently for maybe 20 minutes and then I try to get the servers attention and I don't know if he purposely ignore us. So after 30 minutes of waiting and not even having our drinks we left the restaurant. No one even noticed! I won't ever go there because the restaurant wasn't even full. They just have a bad service ! read more

Very bad service don't come here! They told us that it was only going to be a 20 min wait and we waited for 35 min and when I went inside to see what was going on they had totally skipped us and said they thought we had left. When we didn't we were outside the whole time ! We waited 10 more minutes and gave them the benefit of the doubt and they still didn't sit us so we left ! An hour on my morning wasted ! read more

The manager of the restaurant does not provide quality service. I could see him giving his servers attitude and being hard to work with. He also showed customers attitude. The restaurant is very old and looks dirty. My server however was very nice and I made sure to tip her generously for her hard work read more

My family and I came in for dinner after my sons soccer game. Our server was the best i think his name was Dontay, he brought out our drink and took our order. Brought out exactly what we asked for and was very attentive. He made sure our waters were filled and drinks. Food was great and place was clean. This is a Dennys i would come back to and recommend. read more

After getting horrendous service at a nearby IHOP, basically ignored for 15 minutes we walked out with out anybody stopping us, go figure. So we came to Dennys. Immediately we were sat down and we felt welcomed. After sitting down they took out order for drinks and lunch. Great customer service from Tiffany. I can't say enough about this place. Been coming here for years now. Usually during graveyard hrs hah. Never a complaint about this place. read more

Wow! Couldn't believe it. My kids took me out for Father's Day to Denny's. I love the food. I normally go to the one in Long Beach. First time on this one. Very bad experience. The Server that was working at the bar, it was a she her first 2letters of her name was LO. She was terrible I mean terrible. She threw our food as she was handing it to us. Never went to check on us, we stood up and ask the cashier to get us refills, my son never got his coffee y never got my juice. She was standing in front of us st one point looking at her cell, I at that time I ask her to get me my juice. She looked at me and kept looking at her cell. Terrible Service read more

Nice and quiet, nice staff, great bar service (Jan, Tammy and Tyrone) and great food.... will come back again. Great for football season, birthday parties, and happy hour. Great job folks, see you soon. read more

!!!!PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR TIME HERE!!!! Arrived early and got seated right away. Tons of tables open. My wife was extremely hungry so we ordered right away. While waiting for our food another party arrived about 15 mins after us. After them another party arrived about 5 mins after that. Within 10 mins of them arriving both parties had their food on the table!!! And us...NOTHING!!! The waitress assured us that "our food would be out shortly." 15 mins later still nothing. We spent an hour waiting for our food until we finally grew too impatient and left. COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE!!! read more

The star is for James, our server, the rest was absolutely a zero for awful service...first of all, when we walked in, we were greeted by "red haired...red eyebrow" ghetto server...who set the tone for the four minutes we were there...she was absolutely inconsiderate, and disrespectful with her rudeness, and consistent bad use of words not only in front of her management but to the management also the customers...it was that bad, we decided to leave, yes! After ordering!!! I don't know if she has a family member that hooked her up, but she needs to be FIRED!!!! She made the atmosphere unbearable and and very akward and uncomfortable.as a fellow African American....I was totally embarrassing. It was worth the ride all the way to PCH for better service..... read more

Best Denny's ever! Me and my family eat here every Sunday morning! We love the service and the waitresses and waiters. You guys rock!
