One of the best dining experiences I've had in years. I stopped in on a whim, and it turned into one of those meals you remember long after you leave. The food was exceptional, and every dish felt it was cooked and crafted with real care. What truly sets this place apart is the people. The chefs and staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely excited to share their favorite recommendations. They didn't just serve food; they created an experience. Talking with them felt like chatting with old friends, and their passion for what they do shows in every detail. It's honestly surprising this restaurant isn't rated five stars across the board. With food this good and hospitality this sincere, it deserves all the recognition it can get. I'll be eating here every time I'm in town traveling! If you're looking for a spot that delivers amazing food, warm service, and a memorable experience, this restaurant is absolutely worth your visit. read more

My bf and I do date night once a week and this week was my choice. I chose Denny's and I'm so happy I did. We had the best waitress we've had since we started date night over 2 years ago. Taylor was so curtious and upbeat; she made sure our food was to our liking and then let us know if we needed anything, anything at all just let her know. She made our date night upbeat and and delightful. Oh and can I just say...the steak I ordered was made to perfection and my bf's dinner ..well let's just say he raved about it lol. We finished with an amazing dessert of choc chip lava cake with ice cream and caramel drizzle. read more

Remarkable service and food. I eat out a lot, as well as all over the country. This location was by far the best establishment I have ever been to out of the Denny's chain. Service has been friendly during my last three visits. I am extremely picky about my food, sanitary utensils, and competent staff. This location has passed all of my criteria. Our latest waitress Kyra was friendly, accommodating and informed of menu options and my special requests. Thank you Denny's for the wonderful experience. read more

My wife and I both had the fried fantail shrimp entrée which comes with a salad and two sides. The shrimp were quite juicy and tasty and had a nice crunch so they must've been coated with among other things some panko breadcrumbs. The portion was generous as you will see in the photo. Both salads were good, but the greens were just a little tired. French fries were also quite nice and covered with kind of a tasty and crispy coating of some kind. Service was good and we never had to wait very long for anything. The diner has two display cases full of delicious, looking desserts... But we were too full to eat anymore. The bill for the two entrées + 2 soft drinks was $39 + an $8 tip. Good, solid diner food and I would return in the future with no reservations.

One thing I will say is that the restaurant itself is very nice. The dining room is clean, updated, and has a newer feel rather than the classic old school diner atmosphere, which we really liked. Our waitress was also friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. My husband's bagel sandwich with double sausage, egg, and cheese was excellent. It was easily the highlight of the meal. Everything else missed the mark. We both ordered home fries, but they were only lightly browned on top while the rest of the potatoes were saturated with what tasted like butter or oil. After one bite, neither of us could eat them. My two over medium eggs were cooked correctly, but the wheat toast was very thin and lacked the crisp texture you expect from toast. The biggest disappointment was the corned beef hash. I specifically ordered it well done and very crispy, but it was only browned on one side while the other side was still soft and undercooked. We asked if it could be cooked longer, but when it came back it wasn't much different. I took one more bite and still couldn't eat it. By the end of the meal, most of my breakfast and both orders of home fries were still on the plates, and my husband had only eaten his sandwich. We paid for the entire meal without complaint, but no one asked if something was wrong or why so much food had been left behind. A simple check in or offering to make things right would have made a big difference. We know every restaurant can have an off day, and we genuinely hope others have a better experience than we did. Unfortunately, after giving Gateway Diner two chances and leaving disappointed both times, we've decided it just isn't the place for us.
