My 92 year old Mom wanted to get her extended family together for breakfast...33 adults and 8 children! This Dennys has a side room we could reserve. I couldn't believe how they were able to seat us all, and get our orders so quickly! Roxane, our waitress, was so efficient and organised. The food was great, and she had hardly taken the last order when she started serving the food! Really exceptional service all around. read more

Located on Vista Chino and Landau, adjacent to Plaza Rio Vista near Stater Bros with plenty of parking. We stopped by late Friday night and were immediately welcomed and seated by a friendly hostess. I ordered the Country Fried Steak dinner with mashed potatoes and broccoli. Everything tasted delicious, delivering that classic, comforting Denny's flavor I love. Even the side bread was perfect; soft with toasted edges. The restaurant was clean, organized, and inviting. Customer service was top-notch; shout-out to our server, Cristina G., who was attentive and made our dining experience wonderful. Overall, we had a great time and will definitely return when we are back in town! read more

We went there about 10am and we had to wait about 15 minutes to be seated and 25 minutes to order food and waited 20 minutes to get our food! And it wasn't that crowded. We went to 2 other Denny's and they both said this location is notorious for bad service! Would Not recommend. read more

We have ordered food from this restaurant several times in the past and each time I give them the benefit of the doubt that they will get the order correct and each and every time they don't. Mind you, we are not ordering anything special and/or giving special instructions...just what is on the menu. And each and every time something is missing. It isn't like it is rocket science to place the items that were ordered into the bag for delivery or pick-up. But somehow, they always mess it up. Now mind you, the food has been okay... just never a complete order. The staff really need to be retrained on knowing what to do and how to do it. I get that it probably doesn't matter to them, but if you are going to be paid to do a job, then do the job. Management should really do unannounced audits of the jobs workers are doing to ensure quality service. read more

We took advantage of their private room and booked ahead to host a family gathering of 26 adults and 5 children for breakfast, and everyone was very pleased with their handling of our large group. Their main restaurant was full on a Saturday morning, and yet we had great service as well. The orders came out in waves but all were made to order and hot. Birthday pancakes from the kids' menu were a big hit, as were the grand slam breakfasts. My make your own omelet was delicious, and numerous pancakes were enjoyed by all. The room has one long table plus numerous booths with plenty of room, and a great wall mural making the room bright and cheery. read more

My family and I went in a while back. The first thing we noticed was a strong odor of urine. There were only about 3 other customers inside restaurant at the time. Dennys needs to redo that restaurant from bottom to top. We also looked at the menu prices and gasped. The prices had more than doubled from just a couple of years ago. Dennys is no longer affordable, not just this Dennys but all. read more

Have to update this review. Continue to be so impressed by how festive this Denny's is. Again I'm not a big Denny's fan but I'm a big fan of this one. Service was again top-notch. I love how nice they are to their co-workers and all their customers. Maybe I'm just coming in at the right time of day because I don't see any problems with service. Loved the Rudolph pancake. Had to get one, even though it looked totally goofy. They ran out of the big chocolate chip. Prices are great. You get solid food and unlimited cups of coffee for a great value. You guys are doing an amazing job. Big kudos to everyone. read more

I have never in the history of dining out come across the worst service in the history of waiting tables! This girl went out of her way to not serve me ..my food. You have to go out of your way to be so awful...!? PS. I own a restaurant read more

The food and the service has always been excellent since they opened. There is a young gal who has been our server most times since we started going there The tables we have been sat at have always been very clean no sticky stuff on the table read more

Service here is terrible and slow. We came around noon and had a male waiter. It wasn't very crowded but it took forever for him to take our full order and deliver our food. Then once we did get our food, he barely came back to check on us. Took asking 2 different employees to get enough boxes to go, while our actual waiter cleaned empty tables next to us. Then when I asked him to remove a drink that my husband said was inedible, he complained we should have told him at the table, even though the drink was sitting there still full, to which I replied "we would have, if you had ever come by to check on us". He removed the item with an attitude and I was happy to be done with the experience. Disappointing but I won't bother coming back to this location. read more

We loved it so much the other day we came back. Wanted to post a pic of my perfect beautiful omelette but forgot got to take a picture until i had already eaten half of it haha. It was seriously so delicious though. Daughter and husband loved their food as well. The staff here are so nice too! Having food allergies sometimes makes you feel like you are on the outside of everything, i actually felt normal here. Thanks guys! read more

Denny's - Delicious omelette with cheddar, caramelized onions, tomatoes, and avocado. Perfect hash browns again! I seriously love this place. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cathedral City, California

We were seated quickly with menus and place settings. Then we waited...waited...waited until the three servers behind the counter had their conversation interrupted by another staff member to cue them that we were looking at them ready to order. It is Dennys, so can't be too surprised, although I would expect this after midnight, not at 12p. The soup was good. My spouse really enjoyed the grilled cheese sandwich. The side salad was just that. The coffee was a bit weak. The restaurant appeared clean. read more

Christina is the goat! Went on Memorial Day and she was the only one waiting tables. Handled everyone including cleaning the tables so smoothly, promptly, and with grace. Food was amazing and I'm loving the upgrade on the mozarella sticks. read more

My husband and I visited this location for their $6.99 Slam breakfasts. When I went to pay, I was informed that because I ordered from the $6.99 menu my AARP discount only applied to the drinks, not to the ticket itself. When contacting Denny's Corporation, I was told "Thank you for contacting Denny's Corporation. I forgot to mention that our coupons have the small print stating that they cannot be combined with certain offers as well." The AARP discount is not a "coupon" by any stretch of the imagination, no more so than a military discount is. So if you want to support an establishment that reneges on discounts, by all means this is the restaurant chain for you. Otherwise, dine somewhere else. read more

Shout out to JACOB and the tall guy with curly hair. They served us and another party effortlessly and efficiently. Normally I get sketched out to eat after 11pm but we felt so safe here with their presence. The food was aaamaaazing. Shout out to the cook as well. read more

I walked out without finishing my meal. I thought the soup was so watered down it was hard to call it soup.

Came in with my wife for pancakes and coffee. For starters we got a mug of cold coffee. When pancakes were brought to the table we asked for a refill. Waited 20min and there was only one table with customers. We would see the server doing side work and not even paying attention to her only customers that has asked for coffee. So my wife gets up with 2 empty coffee mugs, one on each hand and asked for refills. Server said oh we are out you need to wait 6min. So we waited and by the time we finally got our coffee our pancakes were cold. Then all of a sudden we get this strong smell of cleaning chemicals. We turn and see the mop bucket in the dining room. It has been sitting there for over 15min and now my stomach hurts from the smell and cannot eat a single bite anymore. Definitely will not be back! read more

Denny's is okay but when you add freezing cold air conditioning, too many guests for one server, a long wait for food, and cold pancakes, it becomes a bit too much! Won't be returning to Vista Chino and Landau Denny's Cathedral City ever! 10% discount didn't make it better! Other customers, same complaints! read more

A welcome Surprise.....the staff are friendly. The facility is clean. The food is excellent and the portion sizes are larger than most. The menu has items that are surprisingly affordable for all ages and they do have a nice menu for Seniors. Because the prices are so fair I find myself eating there or taking out 4 times a week. I highly suggest you BYPASS these other high priced restaurants and try this specific NEW Denny's on Vista China at Landau...plus they give a nice discount for AARP members on everything (not on the special discount menu - which is only fair) read more

Our waitress Dulce was very friendly and efficient in taking our order and delivering our meal! Thank you for a great experience!!!

I know, I know: why review a Denny's? Because the Vista Chino store deserves it. It is a much newer location which starts things off right. But, that's not all. The staff is uncharacteristically professional and friendly. They seem genuinely focused on customer care. Possibly because of this, the food just seems to taste better. Even when packed, the service is very efficient. Regardless of where you live in the Valley, a few extra minutes of drive time is worth it. read more

It was very good our server was very attentive along with the other staff. We got the pleasure of having Ariana and Jacob and Brandon! The food was good as well and We will definitely be coming again! read more

The restaurant wasn't that busy there were booths open right by where we were standing! The waitresses would ignore us. Finally they said just sit there to these two men and then to us which made us wonder why weren't we seated before that. Okay well we sat down, then we had to wait for coffee. In the meantime I was hitting flys. It was gross! When she finally brought it I asked for half n half and she brought me vanilla creamers in little containers. I finally got up and went over to register to ask for half n half. With all the time wasted that all we could have since we had to get to my husband's doctor appt. but I'm glad because I didn't even want to eat breakfast there! It wasn't a clean Denny's and I do not recommend that place. The management came out to the register but really do much to speed things along! Will never go back! Bad name for Denny's! read more

Glad to have found this new and just-opened Denny's located by our hotel. Almost everything closed after 9 pm in Palm Springs or Palm Desert. We are always in need of some food after a long day at the BNP Tennis Open. This Denny's delivered nicely. The place was newly built, and clean, with hot food, and great service. This will be our yearly late-night destination from now on. read more

They started off great but it went downhill quick. Our order took about 2o minutes to get to our table. Just my wife and me. Hardley anyone else there. My food was stone cold!

brandon and Renee gave us the most unforgettable experience ever. They have amazing customer service. Please give them a raise

It wasn't busy when we sat down to enjoy breakfast and yet problems arise. We get our coffee and ask for vanilla cream never got it I had to get up and ask again for them. Then she drops off our food and never came back to check on us. Had she checked on us she would have been told we didnt recieve all of our food. We ate what we could and waited. I had to again get up to get boxes and our check by this time more people were arriving and it started to get busy but while my party of 4 was there there was 5 tables including ours and 3 tables were finished eating. I'm very observant because I'm a server and it's very disappointing to see 3 servers checking there phones instead of the customers. While paying and asking for the undelivered food to be removed another customer had the same issues. Thank God I don't live out here because i won't ever have to come back. Your staff looks and acts miserable. Like they hate being there no I'm sorry about your ruined visit no apologies just rude. read more

Came to have dinner here tonight with my two baby boys and my cousin (kids eat free tues. and sat from 4p to 10p) We arrived at 9:30ish and everything was going well, food was delicious, up until my server CRISTINA G. started to get upset at us for asking if they removed my two boys food off of the bill (THEY DONT REMOVE IT OFF THE ACTUAL PHYSICAL BILL, they only put it on the bottom of the receipt saying: 'discounts' which is why I was confused because I still saw the meal on my bill) anyways so she started getting upset and throwing shade with some attitude and verbatim said "well if you would look at the bill on the bottom it says discounts, that's where we remove it" so I retuned the shade and said no I didn't look at the bottom. PRIOR to all of this happening I wanted to try out Dennys new slammin sodas SO I ordered one and I had asked her for her suggestion if they were any good and she said she hadn't tried them just yet...... I went ahead and ordered one, unfortunately I did not like it, I retuned it and apologized to her asking if I could just get something different to drink. WELL when she was giving us attitude about the whole bill issue she then has the nerve to tell me, WORD FOR WORD: "when you go out to eat at restaurants, you don't just order something and say you don't like it?" I said: YES I DO EXACTLY THAT because why the heck would I pay for something that I DO NOT LIKE! She couldn't even let me know if they were any good BECAUSE she hadn't tried DENNYs NEW SLAMMIN SODAS and YOU WORK THERE!? SO YES MISS MAM' I AM GOING TO DO EXACTLY THAT AND RETURN MY DRINK! Oh and another thing... while she was getting all worked up about everything she ALSO cared to tell us "I could have charged you for the honey mustard" (we had order honey mustard for our French fries that came with our entree) she said COULD HAVE but she didn't and she also didn't disclose at any time that they DENNYS now charges for extra sauces..... PATHETIC. read more

The food is always good at Denny's for a Sunday morning. Thank you to Roxy for such wonderful service. Very attentive to our table & kind.

Headed to the new Denny's with Uncle Randy because it's his absolute favorite place to go. Mayra was our server & she did an excellent job. When our food was up, Allison delivered with a beautiful smile! Apparently, Allison is a trainer from the East Coast. She travels about the country & is instrumental in training all the new employees. What a job!!! Great work, Mayra & Allison! We will be back very soon! read more

I'll start off by saying it takes A LOT for me to leave a bad review. I have years of food service myself (bus boy, host, waiter), and so I know how food service should be and how restaurants operate. I know what good service is and I know what bad service is. It's not uncommon for me to tip 30% if the service and food are great. We went to this Denny's on Monday, December 30 for dinner. It was 6:00 and there were four other tables with customers. We got beverages promptly, but it was another ten minutes before our order was taken. It took at least 15 minutes for our food to arrive, which was a starter with chicken fingers. We had to ask for BBQ sauce twice. When our dinner order finally did come it had been another 30 minutes. When it arrived it was hot and tasted like Denny's food always does. IN ADDITION...there was a whole lot going on inside this place: 1) An employee's three children were sitting at the counter watching a TV above the bar. The TV was VERY loud, and that was on top of the regular music playing in the restaurant. 2) There was some kind of employee party / potluck going on in a private back room area of the restaurant. People kept walking in and out of the back room and into the kitchen and behind the bar, and they were not on the clock and not in uniform. They were in street clothes. One in particular had very long blonde hair (past her rear end) and I saw her hair dragging over food service equipment. (I mean it was gross.) Many, many people from the party helped themselves to soda from the machine. And, food was regularly coming from the kitchen and being taken into the party room, by staff who were working and also party guests. Was this why our food took so long? 3) Whenever new guests entered the restaurant, employees at the other end of the bar from the front door would yell, "BE RIGHT WITH YOU!" or "TAKE A SEAT ANYWHERE!" Rather than walking to the front to greet guests, workers were screaming and yelling across the entire restaurant. All in all, this was just a very bad experience. The food took way too long, and we felt like we were in the way of what appeared to be employees attending a potluck. Workers had children there. It was VERY loud and just not a relaxing vibe. The worst Denny's experience I've ever had. No, I'm not a Denny's frequent-flyer, but over the years I've gone many times. I won't be back to this one, guaranteed. I hope a member of the management team sees this review and takes action. None of what I saw would have ever been allowed at the restaurants where I worked, (which includes Perkins and Village Inn...basically the same types of food establishment as Denny's). read more
