Overcooked or burnt food with little care by waitstaff. The cook needs to look at the menu so he might see how the food should look. I ordered the Ultimate Omelette but stated that the eggs needed to be runny. Of course that can't be done on an omelette but the server was clueless and immediately began writing down my order before I finished speaking. I stated that I'd never expect that and so to make it easy on the cook, I said that they could just turn it into a scramble so the eggs wouldn't be too cooked but expressed that eggs with brown on them would be a tabu. My easy scramble came out with rubbery, overcooked eggs and there definitely was not three eggs. My brother ordered his eggs sunny side up and they came out near bubbling and were black around the edges. Hash browns were generous but had black all over them and were not golden brown like in the menu, still raw in the middle with no flavour other than dirty grill. I told the server that I was worried that the young cook wouldn't know how to, just cook the food because I suspected he wouldn't be able to keep up with the hot grill and clearly, he didn't. The woman behind us ordered the T-Bone Slam, medium rare and I after the server left, I admitted to her that I easedropped and that her steak would likely be well-done --- it was well done but not done very well because it wasn't as she ordered. I never send back meals and couldn't have anyway because the server didn't ask how everything was until we had finished. The cook messed up the order and the server should have never brought it out. The last time we did breakfast at Denny's was two years ago and it was the same but not as bad as Ruperts and Hermosa Grill both, where are really bad with exception to the poached eggs at Ruperts which are usually perfect but don't expect service there either. Seems that for breakfast in Durango, the clear choice is The Durango Diner or Oscars. Denny's is especially disappointed because it's the only major chain diner in a town where major chains are not encouraged. Upon paying, we weren't asked how the meal was and I suspect that it wouldn't have mattered if they had. I used to travel 21-days a month for a living and Denny's was my standard and I'd eat there once a week, minimum. I loved it because it was consistent and always satisfying and if that's what you're expecting, it will not at Denny's Durango. Worst $40 (with tip) I've spend in since eating at Ruperts last when they wouldn't order my gift card and served a worse meal. I see a lot of five star ratings for Denny's and even Ruperts and so maybe I'm the oddball out but you've been warned by a customer having two bad breakfasts in a row. read more

After riding round trip train to Silverton we were looking forward to a good American meal. Close by to the train station, this Denny's fit the bill. Ordered Bacon Avocado cheeseburger with onion rings and a Salmon Salad your way with avocado. The burger had a generous amount of avocado and hamburger meat was cooked loosely, a nice change from the usual puck. Onion rings The Salmon Salad had plenty of salmon and avocado, fresh lettuce and nice additions. Anthony our server went 110% taking care of us. read more

Food decent, menu seemed smaller than last visit, service was a little slow especially as we were there for brunch and fewer customers during the week. Server forgot about the veterans discount. Slightly overpriced but overall good read more

Standard Dennys. Solid breakfast for the money. I normally get an omelet at each location. They make it to my specifications.

We had a short wait to be seated on a busy Sunday morning. The kids enjoyed pancakes. One had the birthday pancakes, and the others enjoyed the chocolate chip ones. I had an omelette with lots of bacon, a few spinach leaves , a few mushrooms, and was basically devoid of Swiss Cheese. The hash browns and English muffins were fine. The other person on our party had a western omelette and enjoyed it. The kiddos had orange juice and the grown ups had the last 2 glasses of tomato juice left in the house. It was a good, solid meal, but not outstanding. The service by Cody was friendly and attentive. Thank you. read more

Had a wonderful experience here, even with it being early morning (before 6am) the food were cooked perfectly-to-order (even had gluten-free opts. for those with a sensitivity), had an updated retro feel, such friendly service (Trey was incredibly kind) and very attentive, plus the coffee never emptied :) overall a superb experience! read more

Open all day- early - most places in town do not open till 7am. Coffee is good and keeps coming. My waitress heather was quick and really nice. I ordered the basic eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast, lots of coffee. Dennys knows how to do it, easy on the belly no surprises. Just what i needed. read more

Food was okay but would have been better if it were hot. Ed was our waiter and he was super sweet. Friendly and grandpa like. This Denny's is located in an ideal location to highway and walking traffic. It is conveniently across street from our hotel. Clean! read more

So many other better choices...#1 absolutely understaffed. Took too long to get a server to even take drink orders. #2 food was not brought out together and when it was, it was wrong order or cold. Typical Denny's environment- go elsewhere and eat better food. read more

Cody was our waiter. He was personable & attentive to our table! Our meals were just what was needed today!

The food was ok. The health and safety could use some major overhaul. We had to wait and sit on benches that everyone before us had sat on. No cleaning. Masks weren't really enforced and yet dirty college girls allowed to walk in and eat and leave without being asked to put shoes on. What happened to minimum standards of no shoes, no shirt, no service!! I couldn't enjoy my food. The line to pay was long ...no social distancing and less than a foot from us... as we left they said ugh we have to close a section we had a situation. Not sure what that meant!! read more

Denny's in Durango--Once again, Trey is a fantastic server--always glad to have him wait on us!

Very disappointed with the service. I don't want to pull the rascist card however it feels very much like it here. Like you know when you're being treated badly. Course if you're white, you'll probably enjoy your experience here. read more

Breakfast was cold before I got it. Came in parts spread out. Waitress was rude before I ever spoke a word. She set the tone.she couldn't be bothered. Find a job that suits you better. First time at Durango Denny's and the last. I know. It's hard to find people willing to work. I get it. Where's the manager? When the waitress says " whatcha drinking from six feet behind you, you wonder who she's talking to. read more

We had breakfast at Durango at Dennys. Trey was the waiter he was awesome. Very attentive. Great place for breakfast for sure.

Stop for a quick breakfast and our server Trey was awesome!!! He took great care of us and the food was great too. Stop in and ask for Trey!! read more

Straight up plastic bits in my oreo shake. Health hazard. Will not be going here ever again.

It's true, the coffee isn't anything special and it tastes like regular diner coffee. But this is the best breakfast value in town at $5.99, the everyday value slam. Two eggs, hash browns, toast and meat option. I also have to mention, I'm gluten free and the GF English muffin was amazing - in fact the best GF bread I've had in a long time. I also want to add they have several booths and tables with adjacent outlets so I'm here working away and enjoying the peace and quiet on a weekday morning. My server was Trey and he was super nice, in fact everyone here is all smiles and very pleasant. read more

Honestly Dennys is Dennys. If you're going there you know what you're getting. Props to all the teenagers putting up with wildly drunk people at 2 am. The food is eh when sober and wildly incredible when drunk. It's ALWAYS dirty in here though. No matter what time of day you go it's always sticky and gross. Which i guess is just Dennys. But as they say.. You don't GO to Dennys you END UP at Dennys. And this Dennys is not the worst i've been to. read more

I was surprised when Husband said he wanted "Denny's" on the last night of our vacation. I was also a bit leery after seeing the reviews. Now I am more shocked to be giving it 5 stars & this place deserves it. From the moment we entered we were treated kindly. Our food was very, very good. Chief, our server, was professional & friendly. Hubby's sandwich knocked him off his feet. He had a Big Dipper Melt with au jus and swears it's the best he's ever had. (He tours and eats all over the world, so this comment is pretty impressive. He even told the waiter that he couldn't believe he was saying it.). This location is by far the cleanest and most professional I've been in. Every member of the staff was helpful, friendly, and sometimes both. I am not sure I have ever been in another Denny's (or any other chain, for that matter) that's as nice as this one. I am glad I decided to skip the reviews and go here. It was well worth it. read more

I was seated quickly at a clean booth. Trey, my server, was very nice and pleasant. Unfortunately, that's where the goodness stopped. I ordered eggs Benedict, the ham was burnt, the muffins could not be cut with a knife. Although the eggs were fine. First time in a long time I cannot eat eggs Benedict I will not return to this Denny's read more

I haven't eaten at Denny's for 19 years! We stopped here because it was open late after a long day exploring. We were pleasantly surprised by the wonderful service given by Mandi W. - five star service! She kept up with all of our requests and did it with a smile. The restaurant looks newly renovated and it very clean and nice inside. Food was typical Denny's food. read more

Came in the morning after the polar express. Trey was our server, only two in the whole restaurant! He was so good, refills, paid attention! Not sure how you do that so short staffed but glad we got to meet Trey today! Thanks for the great breakfast! read more

It's a Dennys so it can't get 5 stars but it's nice, clean, nicely decorated, good staff. ​

We came here for breakfast on our way through Durango. Busy location but only a 5 minute wait for seating. I got the red white and blue (not sure of the actual name but it had blueberry pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream with cream cheese frosting, eggs, bacon and hash browns). Service was great (We had Trey as our server.)!! I ordered the pancakes without frosting and they remembered. Plenty of coffee refills and money saving tips. Food was good and the price was great! read more

Very nice and clean atmosphere. Quick and friendly service. We had a really great waitress named Lisa.

Standard American fair usually great service sometimes overbearing management. Could use some management training

Thanks to our waitor Trey for a fantastic dining experience! Really friendly and courteous! Had their Supreme breakfast skillet with sweet tea! read more

Dennys in Durango, Colorado - Have had breakfast delivered to my home several times from this restaurant through DoorDash. The food is always hot and fresh and delicious! The pancakes are served in a separate area of the food container with none of the other foods mixed together. The coffee is fresh brewed and great tasting yet I think that the cup could be larger. read more

ordered salads. some lettuce was brown on the edges. waitress seemed unhappy to be there. received 1 small 1/4 cup of dressing. asked for a second and they charge for that. seated us close to other people in a mostly empty restaurant. I dislike that. restaurant seemed a little rundown. but what can you expect it's dennys. read more

Ordered a slamwich (1st time) this morning at 8am. Ran over to get it at the assigned time and there was a sign on the door. 'Closed 6am - 9am.' Things happen. Went back later about 9:20 (busy at work). My sandwich was ready, and the apologies for being closed were very sincere. Great management and staff. BTW the slamwich is really good. I'd give 10 gold stars if I could. read more
