You know what's better than breakfast? It's breakfast for dinner. Denny's is the trifecta of awesomeness, great food, great atmosphere and great service. The charm of the restaurant is how friendly and caring each of the staff members are. Denny's is open 24 hours. The menu includes breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert options.

It's back folks. Those $10 grand slams. Yum!

My guess and I went ahead and ordered the macaroni brisket with barbecue and onions on top. We went ahead and grabbed two cups of coffee, some water, and a couple of side salads. But you know me, especially at these type of joints it's the customer service that's going to make or break the outing. This is where CSA customer service All Star Paolo (pictured) came through big time. Would you believe this guy was not only the host, but our server as well? In short, he did double duty and pulled it off like a true magician. All in all good time was had is this was the first time ever for my guest and I at this particular Denny's. Will be back!

Host taking order of family that came after us

We visited this Denny's on Christmas. Upon arrival, the host seated us. I noticed there was only one server working, which I understood given the holiday. We sat down, decided what we wanted to order, and waited for approximately 30 minutes. During that time, two parties seated ahead of us were greeted, given drinks, and served within about 10-15 minutes, while we were never greeted or offered drinks. The host continued seating new guests in the front of the restaurant while we were the only two guests seated in the back, as shown in the photos attached. Eventually, a waiting lobby formed, yet we were not acknowledged or given any information about wait times. After waiting, the host then took the order of a family that arrived after us, and at that point we decided to leave. The only staff member who spoke to us was the busboy, who suggested we move closer due to having only one server. No similar communication came from the host or server. We were also seated next to an emergency exit that emitted a constant beeping sound throughout the wait. Suggestion for management: On understaffed or holiday shifts, guests should be informed of wait times before being seated. Hosts should coordinate seating with server capacity and ensure all tables are acknowledged and offered drinks, even if there will be a delay. Clear communication would have significantly improved this experience. Based on this experience, I would not return.

Arrived at this establishment to have breakfast with my Mom and Brother, there was a bit of a wait, which is usual on a Sunday morning. Once we were seated, we ordered, they had some new Bettlejuice menu items and the hubster did not hesitate to jump on them. Our waitress Iris was wonderful. The kitchen was running behind, but surprisingly to us the family next to us got their food and we were still waiting for our food.. iris our wonderful waitress asked us if we wanted to see the Manger Ilis . Ilis came to our table with a weak excuse for the kitchen, but offered no solution. I pointed out that the family next to us had their food and we were still waiting. The Managers response was " I can offer you a glass a water complementary ", what the heck.. Ok, let me eat my food a bounce out of here....

I arrived and it was super packed but still got seated within 10 mins. Once I got seated i waited 15 mins for a waiter to come take my drink order and I had to ask who was my waiter because no one had come around. Kathya I think her name was, helped us out. She was very nice and ended up serving us since the waitress that was responsible for my area never came to my table. 10/10 for her service but 6/10 in the experience having breakfast here.

The service was very good, everything was wonderful. But finding hair in your food is not pleasant.

My family and I were driving by this location on the way to the airport and decided to have a bite to eat before we get there. When we arrived we were greeted with a friendly smile from the host and manager who were both in the front. The service was really prompt. our drink order was taken right when we sat down which was nice because it was a hot day. Our server was super friendly and checked on us frequently. The manager stopped by to check on us. Overall I have to say from my experiences at other Dennys this has to be the best I have ever been to. if I'm ever in the area I'll definately come back. highly recommend this dennys to anyone and everyone. this dennys rocks read more

My husband and I just ate here this morning. The lobby was very busy and we were greeted warmly by the host. As we waited we watched him greet numerous guests with a smile and a kind word although the restaurant was EXTREMELY busy. Not only was he greeting guests, he was also handling the takeout orders, keeping the servers on their toes and making sure the tables were being cleaned right away. I'm sure he had no idea I was watching, but I was quite impressed at how he managed to multitask so effortlessly, and in a very calm and graceful manner. Eventually I was able to see his name tag--DANIEL SANCHEZ--and he is AMAZING. Denny's is truly lucky to have him. You don't really find people with that kind of professionalism and work ethic anymore, he is definitely old school class--a perfect gentleman!!! We've visited this Denny's location a few times now, and have had consistently GREAT SERVICE and great food. The waitresses are always super nice and attentive as well. Today we had a wonderful waitress named Maria, and there's another waitress there we love but her name escapes me at the moment as it is unusual(I think it starts with an M). However this his morning even though we weren't seated in her section, she made it a point to come over to wish us good morning and say hello. She's very sweet and I hate that I've forgotten her name... Maria was great, very friendly and pleasant, and coming by periodically to check on us and making sure we were enjoying our meal. Although we had a bit of a wait when we arrived we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Denny's and will definitely continue to visit this particular location. Hands-down it's got the best staff of any Denny's I've ever been to! My husband and I both would like to give a special thank you and shout out to Daniel for his kindness , professionalism and the impeccable service, what a great guy. THANKS, DANIEL-- see you soon!!!

After a 10 hour shift...I was hungry and so I went here with my son and his gf bc I didn't feel like cooking at home and nothing else was open at that time. There were only 2 tables being served during our visit. Ours and another table. There were 4 workers from what I saw. 1 cook. 1 server and 1 hostess. Another employee that was sitting at a table the entire time; upon our arrival and our exit. It took them 10 minutes to bring menus and 10 more minutes to ask what we wanted. Another 45 minutes to get our food. I asked for mayonnaise for my burger and was waiting for them to bring it (another 10 minutes) and I turn to go and look to see what's taking so long and the employee was talking with the cook and signaled he'll be just one more moment! SMH! They brought us cold food. Messed up our order, then tried to over charge us on an item that was supposed to be included. When we wanted to pay, they were no where in site! So we got up to pay and 2 of the workers that were supposed to be helping us... were sitting down chatting it up while one was eating! SMH!!

We ordered the honey Berbers chicken bits BOMB 10/10 - they were so crispy and so flavorful My husband and best friend ordered the root beer braised short rib- WOW! 10/10 - tender, slightly sweet, buttery rich deliciousness. The whipped potatoes were to die for I ordered the The Jollof Platter with Fried Catfish. OMG! It was perfect, not greasy, flavorful batter and those rice and beans. That arugula sald was refreshing too Everything was just perfect! It was worth the wait. I'm ready to come back today! Wow!

She made menu selections based on what she loved most and what she knew I would appreciate. She did NOT MISS. I loved every single thing about this place. The vibe is chill but vibrant, with groovy old school R&B and hip-hop music playing overhead but not so loud that you could not have a conversation. We sat at the bar and interacted with the beautiful and friendly bartender and servers and folks from the kitchen. We ordered all of our food at once, but had it come out as it was ready, I enjoyed every exquisite morsel. My only regret was that I couldn't stay longer. I had to scoot on out of there to make my red-eye flight out of LAX and they accommodated my rush. And despite the inexplicable traffic, I made it there and through to the gate in good time. What a treat and I can't wait to go back! For anyone considering visiting Two Hommes, don't sleep. Get there quick and often.

There's no way I paid $15 for this so I stopped for a second and considered asking the cashier if they gave me the right bag. When I got home and opened it up, I found there was no mistake: it was in fact a Reuben sandwich; it was the smallest, most pathetic, and overpriced Reuben I've ever seen. I ate it though and the taste was OK. I was half in shock while eating it thinking that surely paying $15 at a run down corner deli in Hawthorne would be some kind of hidden gem with generous portions. Nope, it was overpriced and small sold out of a depressing run down corner deli. The kind of thing I would expect from some upscale overpriced specialty deli, not the cramped, low rent, drab place I just visited. It gets 2 stars for being edible and having an acceptable taste but being amazingly poor value sold out of a store with depressing ambiance.

(Please Read This) Honestly I wouldn't recommend this Denny's to anyone even if it was the last Denny's in California. When you enter this establishment you could already feel the bad energy and it has a unique smell right when you walk inside of it...and I'm not talking about a good food smell either. The servers aren't that bad tbh, it's more of the cooks that make the servers get b*tched at because their cooks are horrible and the food comes out extremely slow and also wrong. The managers need to get it together and think about their occupation or hire better people because even when they're overstaffed (which is rare because their always understaffed) with people the whole process is still slow. Also the female manger with blonde hair needs to get fired because I don't know how she has that position if she doesn't have a customer service skills and gives attitude when she's in the wrong. Also look at all the ethnicities that work there and tell me if you see one dark skinned person...one of my friends tried to apply there and they denied him for obvious reasons read more

I visited the restaurant sometime last week with my friend and I was helped out by Jordy. We sat in the patio and were surprised how fast we got service "Hello my name is Jordy, can I start you of with some drinks?" We ordered a water and orange juice of the paper menu we were provided. We looked at the menu shortly and when Jordy returned he said to us " Are you ready to order? Or still need a few minutes?" We were ready to order, we ordered the nachos (full), a stack of pancakes and a chocolate crepé. The restaurant at the time was busy and Jordy was the only one on the floor running around quiet a bit, felt kind of bad seeing him have to wait on all the tables himself. Eventually after 15 minutes our food arrived and we were pleasantly surprised of how good our meal looked. Jordy offered us syrup for our pancakes and we began eating our meal, it was gone in a matter of minutes. We thanked Jordy for his magnificent service and handed him a cash tip. Great service and good food, can't ask for anything better, will return. read more

Service was HORRIBLE! We waited almost 10 minutes to be seated. We could see all the workers on the side laughing and singing songs to one another. Finally someone sat us and we waited another almost 10 minutes to be helped. At least we knew what we wanted. AGAIN, the longest wait for our food. When we got it the food was a mess. My dad's food was sloppy looking and my food was dripping off the plate. During this time we could STILL hear the workers in the back screwing around. The manager who was wearing a light purple shirt was just letting them goof off. This was not cool and sooooo unprofessional. I very rarely get upset at restaurants and this time I was furious. We only came here because are hotel was down the street we rather starve pray to god they close this place down especially after finding a roach in the actual syrup container think of how many kids ate from that amd could or probably already got sick read more

The worst racist place ever. They have the worst service. There is this short chubby fat b**** that is seating and cleaning off tables.with messed up blond hair looking like straight drug addict and a stinch of liquor on her breath food stains all over her uniform i thought this was a family restaurant not a rahab center. When I came in (I'm black), she took my name, asked if I wanted a booth or a table, I told her a booth. Mind you, I am the only person waiting to be seated. Well about 4 different families of Mexicans came in and she seated one of the families before me and when I confronted her she snapped at me and told me to wait. The mexican families were being seated like I wasnt there. I tried not to disrespect because of her age but it took all I had i simplied left.shame on dennys for having disgusting employees like that read more

This past Monday I went to have my breakfast before work and I was lucky to get there just in the right time.right after my server took the order (Jessica K) the place got busy out of nowhere. What I love about this place is doesn't matter the time or if their busy or not the ambiance is always perfect they make you feel confortable. My food was out really fast was hot and delicious, when I ask the guy that was helping them for the manager to complement about my server to my surprise my server (Jessica K) was the manager.I just want congrats her for doing a great job, while I was there I saw her taking tables training a new server and cashing out people thats a lot for one person during a busy day. Once again Jessica K you doing a great job. I really hope she is being valued and recognize her job. read more

Well so much for Veterans building their own GRAN SLAM for their Holiday! This was advertised and in commercials all week long that they would provide a "Free Meal for the Grand Slam Only. Nope! False!!... for the location on 13201 Hawthorne Blvd, Hawthorne, Ca 90250. This is a Franchise Business Owner that does not give a DANG about Veterans Day.. My Husband thankfully and respectfully continue his morning with his visit here. Mr. Abdul Owner of his franchise does not watch the news or communicate with his CORPORATE OFFICES. To make himself feel better, puts up a sign on the door for 20% off your tab to convince us all. Thank you, But no thank you Mr. Abdul. read more

This location shows promise, yet its unreliable service and food quality issues prevent it from reaching its full potential. The service quality at this restaurant varies because some servers provide excellent attention while others appear overwhelmed or uninterested. The restaurant experiences frequent delays and lost orders, together with subpar food temperatures, which occur regularly. The restaurant charges high prices for its portions and dining experience while requiring additional payments for basic items such as avocado. The restaurant delivers inconsistent results, and its current performance leans more toward negative experiences than positive ones. read more

We've lived near this location for 20+ years, We are regulars, and have seen many servers, many menu changes (prices also) and a change of owners. A couple of servers We've known for most of our time being customers that are seasoned veterans of the establishment that know us and our family. A few stand out, one of them, Mursal, shes always been very attentive and friendly. The other servers also are attentive and friendly, regardless of how full or empty the place is. Food quality is good, and tasty. Atmosphere is nice, typical restaurant, your not rushed to eat and go, food comes not to fast, not to slow. read more

I recently dined at Denny's, and my waitress, Maria, made the experience truly memorable. Even though I was dining alone, she made sure I felt welcome and taken care of from the moment I sat down. Maria was attentive, ensuring my drink was always topped up and my meal arrived perfectly cooked and hot. Her friendly demeanor and professionalism stood out, making what could have been an ordinary meal feel special. She was quick to address any needs I had and did so with a genuine smile. If you're ever at this Denny's, I highly recommend asking for Maria--you won't be disappointed! read more

The worst place for eat in and take out. I ordered though Uber Eats 3 days ago. My order was wrong and I didn't get what I ordered. They were out of apple crisp, they substituted my turkey bacon for regular bacon, my pancakes were burnt, there wasn't enough syrup and the food was cold. It too an hour for delivery, I'm only 3 minutes away. It would've been nice had they called me instead of the Uber driver to tell me they couldn't accommodate my order to my liking. I've given them multiple chances dining in and take out throughout the year. I'm done with this location read more

I don't normally eating breakfast, however my son requested that we eat Denny's today. He wanted to try one of the holiday delights. The food was great and management was awesome. You rarely see management on the floor checking on the guest making sure everything is okay. The facility was clean and staff had pleasant attitudes. The place was crowded, however the food was delicious and hardly any wait time. If you haven't been to Denny's you need to go especially for the holiday delights Cinnamon Roll Pancake Breakfast. read more

Everyone here is very friendly! The Main Manager Jamal puts a personal touch to every visit. The staff is very friendly and on time with everything, and the food is prepared better than any other Denny's I've ever tasted. The staff is also very good at making customers feel very welcome, and they do a great job at getting the orders right the first time! I definitely recommend this Denny's if you want great food and great service and fun conversations with the staff! read more
