I went in this morning to get some breakfast with some friends and the experience was amazing. Our server was Anna and she was attentive throughout the whole time. We didn't have to ask for any refills or condiments because she was on it! Her manager Sonia, came around to ensure that everything was good and we didn't need anything. Such attentive customer service and it was by far one of the best experiences I've had at Denny's! Will definitely be coming back sometimes soon read more

So glad there's a familiar restaurant that serves familiar dishes. I stayed at Comfort Inn on Whipple Road in Hayward and their breakfast options were below my expectations. I had to find a better place for breakfast. Coming here was pretty easy. Only took about 5 minutes during morning commute time. There were plenty of parking spots. I ordered the 9-Grain Pancake Slam. My friend had a pancake combo and substituted the ham with turkey bacon. Everything was perfect. The service was great. Food was excellent. Just needed a little TLC on busing the tables after customers left and get rid of soap suds after washing the walkway. read more

I came in with my mom expecting a basic, decent experience and got the complete opposite. The waitress was neither welcoming nor attentive, and it took over 30 minutes just to get a simple breakfast plate. To make it worse, people who arrived after us were served first. Then it went from bad to unacceptable. My mom found a curly black hair mixed into her eggs. When I got up to inform the manager, she took her time coming over, showed zero urgency, and offered no real concern. She asked if we wanted something else, but at that point we had already lost our appetite. Instead of apologizing, she just grabbed our plates and walked off without saying a word. No apology, no acknowledgment, nothing. The lack of basic respect and accountability is honestly shocking. Mistakes happen, but how you handle them matters, and this was handled terribly. I will not be coming back. read more

I love me some breakfast! Denny's never disappoints. The food was amazing and the service was 10/10. The ambiance was incredible. When we arrived there was no line and they helped us fast. Food was delivered so fast! I can probably say this is the first time my food gets delivered this fast ! Will be back soon! read more

Craving breakfast I must admit I stopped at ihop first and had a horrible experience and ended up stopping here. Soooo glad that I did. Upon waking in was immediately greeted and seated. Not too much longer after given a menu and ordered drinks. Although I didn't see any of the specials on the menu and ended up using my phone to pull it up on their website I ordered right away. Server was very nice and food didn't take long at all. Came out exactly how I ordered fresh and hot! 10/10 on food. Coffee a bit weak aka watery but I'm not complaining not everyone likes it strong. 6/10 service again 10/10 very attentive but not overbearing. Cleanliness of the restaurant could use some help though. Walls and floors was a bit dirty 4/10. Probably my new go to for a quick breakfast! Thank you read more

Denny's is never, ever my first choice, but I was working late and had a few minutes free--with no kids, just my husband--so I had to make a decision. I'm so glad I did, this night in particular. When we walked in, it was completely empty. Pedro was all alone at the front and seated us right away. We got our menus, and he went off to tell the cook they had guests. Once he got our drink order, more people started walking in and he had to help all of them. I was able to hear him with other customers, and I noticed he was very professional and took time to answer their questions in great detail. Once we placed our order, even more people came in, and he made sure to greet them and let them know he would be right with them. I ordered the Berry Vanilla Crepe Breakfast with only one crepe. The cook accidentally made me two, and Pedro made sure to let me know it was their mistake and I wouldn't be charged for it. The crepes were delicious, but the eggs and hash browns were a little too oily. My husband ordered his favorite--the Slamburger with a side of onion rings. Unfortunately, he only got about five onion rings, even though it was an upcharge to add them. He barely got any. The Slamburger never disappoints, though. The food here is still not my favorite, but I really appreciated Pedro's service. With about five tables and one to-go order, he was still managing to check in on all his tables and bring food out in a timely manner. He deserves a raise! read more

This location does not give you the Value Slam menu for under $10. You will have to ask for it. This happened to us three times in a row. I don't think they forget, they purposely won't give it to you. read more

After grabbing some last minute items at target we decided to go to dennys across the street-- bad decision. We arrived and stood there for over 10 minutes without anyone saying anything to us. Not letting us know they'd be helping us in a few, nothing, no acknowledgement at all. They just looked at us and continued walking around. After getting seated, our server was friendly and brought us the menus. We ordered and the food took quite some time. I understand, it was 10PM and I'm sure everyone's tired. We had ordered a sampler platter that never came but was still on the bill. The kids Mac and cheese was barely even warm. My kids were starving so we just ate and left. I honestly probably wouldn't be back unless I reallly needed to eat somewhere. read more

Can never go wrong with Dennys. The food tasted like home, I can't get enough of those buttermilk pancakes. My server was kind, and the manager Sonia was very helpful as well. The restaurant was clean and I felt safe to enjoy my food. Will definitely be coming back next Sunday for more pancakes!! read more

This location usually misses items on to go orders, even though there's a checklist on the bag and they seal the bag. The manager is rude and hung up on me. Most Denny's are awful but this is the absolute worst location I've ever dealt with. 0 stars if I could read more

Had a great experience at Denny's. Our server, Lucy, was really friendly and spoke loud enough for my hard of hearing husband and made sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. Food came out quick and exactly how we ordered it. I also noticed Lucy was constantly cleaning as she walked around, checking on tables and making sure everything looked good. My husband and I really appreciated how clean she kept the restaurant. We'll definitely be coming back. read more

Food is ok for the price. The grilled beef is good when they have it. Pancit bihon is ok. Lechon kawali need a little work and maybe smaller cuts and make it a little crispier. Waitress is a little bit salty and has a personality of a toadstool. Make sure you look at their tiny little board on the wall with what they don't have or she'll get a little snippy. Over all, not coming back. read more

To whomever this may concern, I went into this Dennys location last week with my family, we had a long day and just needed a quick bite. As soon as we met our server, Lucy, she brought smiles to our faces and immediately let us know she would be there for any of our needs. This young lady did such a standup job at making us feel welcomed, ACCURATELY rereading our order, and definitely giving us that five star treatment. Our food arrived in a hot and timely manner, served with a smile and all! Never once did she forget something or show anything other than pure professionalism. These days it is hard to find good employees who have a winning attitude, such as this young girl. She made it such a wonderful experience for us, creating the perfect evening setting. Our server, Lucy, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was top notch! Thank you so much Lucy for helping a single mom forget about the day's worries and enjoy a nice meal with my kids. Any team would be lucky to have Lucy on their team! I hope management sees this and gives credit where it's due, we need more servers like her! We will be back, Dennys! read more

We drove to this dennys bc it was 24 hours. We ordered a grand slam and 2 burgers to go at 4:45am. The worker did not accept our $100 bill because she did not have change to give back. There was 3 people in the dining area that got sat before us. What would have happened if we sat in and only had $100 bill to pay with? This establishment should have proper change to conduct business. We had to give up our grand slam in order to pay with exact change. This really ruined our night. read more

The dennys on industrial is the best! especially the manager Sonya is wonderful!! The best customer service i ever experienced. I give her 10 stars read more

Not sure how they follow food safety practices. Look at the photo of my order today. Large amount of mold on my toast. This looks like it appeared after cooking the toast. So how many days ago was this toasted and bagged before serving ? This is a a serious food safety issue. How many other ways are they breaking food safety protocols and serving dangerous food ? read more

Denny's - Was served Moldy toast in my takeout order today. Not sure how long ago it was cooked and kept before serving. - American Near Me - Hayward, California

Hit or miss! Everyone knows Denny's as one of the most ubiquitous diners in America, which means you will get consistent food quality each time regardless of location. Service on the other hand can be highly variable depending on the server you get, the day of the week and time of the day. It's not reliant at all to expect a warm welcome and issue-free dining experience. My most recent visit was on my birthday - they still honor the annual birthday complimentary slam as long as you show proof that you've received an email or code through the app. The app is horrible by the way - there is no birthday code and it's buggy when trying to scan in. We were seated at a booth by one of the servers who was very friendly and understanding when I mentioned I never received the email for the birthday slam (apparently the app wanted me to reset my password before sending me the code, have I mentioned that the app sucks?). Then a different server came to take our order. We just ordered the breakfast slam and a double berry pancake slam and waters (it was just me who was going to get coffee later from a coffee shop and my kid who doesn't drink coffee). We got our food at a reasonable time and the stacks of pancakes looked great! The bacon strips were also very crispy and eggs were cooked perfectly. Flavors and portions were good, it does seem more expensive nowadays but all in all, not terrible. After finishing up our food, we went to pay in the front. The cashier was nice and punched in the free slam, however, they ended up charging me two coffees and what seemed like an a la carte version of the berry pancakes. The price ended up being higher than expected but only after looking at the receipt did I realize their mistake. I went back and asked for the refund but the server insisted I ordered coffee. For a kid, really? I wouldn't have minded if they just apologized for the mistake but they double downed on me ordering the coffee. How rude! At the end of it all, they gave me a cash refund but short by 38 cents (they gave me $7, but coffee was charged as $3.69 each, total should have been a $7.38 refund). I would be hesitant to return and deal with this kind of fiasco again. The unprofessionalism was a huge turn off and I would rather drive further to be met with more hospitality. It could have been an off day but I would still expect respect - not jump to concluding I lied about what I ordered. Overall, this location has a pretty decently sized space for medium to large parties and serves up some delicious food. Just don't expect consistent customer service since it doesn't seem to be a top priority here. read more

I eat at this place almost every morning... and the waitress all are amazing. Except one. I've walked out numerous times she my server... she always forgets something. I order the same thing every day... or she will seat me... and after 15 mins of waiting to order.... I leave. I need to find a new Dennys. This one out of 4 waitress is killing this location. read more

The service was actually good this time because not many people were there. The chocolate banana pancakes was delicious. The new beef brisket melt had way too many big pieces of onion, but the grilled bread was perfectly crisp. Tried the strawberry slam and you need to drink that fast before it separates!!! The chicken fried steak and eggs needed extra gravy - but was better than I expecte. read more

Denny's is a nice place to meet up with friends. I went to Denny's in Hesperian Blvd in Hayward and the service was excellent. The waitress was very nice and pleasant. Great food, nice furniture, music at well volume. Thanks Denny's read more

SOAP DISPENSER MISSING from women's restroom. Meaning, the female workers there are NOT washing their hands after using the restroom And none of the employees, working the night shift on a Saturday had access to soap?!?! The young man with long hair working the register was rude to say the least. Attitude from the start. The girl working the kitchen wasn't helpful at all either. No wonder this place has very few stars with employees like that, who don't care about good customer service, I don't see this place making good money on any day except for maybe a Sunday morning, when people are getting out of church. If I could in any way, possible leave zero stars, I would. The experience was horrible to the point where we didn't even feel comfortable, sitting down to eat due to fear of getting our food spat on. Never going back and do NOT recommend to anyone looking for a decent meal made with clean hands read more

l wait so long to get my food ,like 45 minutes no good place if you're hungry ,l'll never come back again

While we expected a simple meal from the familiar Denny's, our experience was made truly special by our server, Pedro. He was delightful, attentive, and quick, turning a late night dinner into a wonderful one. It would be amazing if all restaurants had employees like him. Thank you, Pedro! My husband and I will make sure to ask for you every time we're back. read more

Hit the spot. My wife and I came here this morning. We saw a crowd, so I dropped my wife off for the wait, so I could go park. Surprisingly, by the time I got in, she was already seated. Our waitress, Anna, was very helpful, friendly, and attentive. Our food was brought out relatively quickly. It was definitely enough food. Pretty tasty, relatively speaking. The place seemed clean and we had a couple people come to the table asking for coffee refills. Good service. We'll definitely be back. read more

This location is right off the freeway across from Target. Covid regulations were still in place for outdoor seating. Our server was very attentive. Everyone sat outside in a sectioned off dining area, inside a tent. We must have arrived just at the right time, because when we go there, we saw 6 people already seated. After we placed our order 25 people walked in. Everything was excellent. The food had that trademark Denny's quality. The coffee was great because I even took a picture of the coffee cup! My cup was never empty. Thanks guys! read more

I don't make it a habit of reviewing chain restaurants but our experience for today 11/10 sucked. Got seated a little before 9am and got our food order placed soon after. We got our coffee and juice delivered to the table fairly quickly. About 30ish mins go by and we still have not seen our food but we're being patient as the restaurant was pretty busy. Unfortunately right before 9:40 our waitress came to our table and told us our order was "lost" and never even started. I don't know how you can miss a tables whole order for 40 minutes. They offered to make our food in 5 mins (crazy that this is possible all of a sudden) but at this point we didn't have time to wait because my boyfriend needed to leave for work so it just made for a disappointing experience read more

The food was great,I didn't have to wait super long for my food and it was nice and warm how I like it ,also the young lady that took my order Lucy was very polite and respectful.definitely will be coming to this location more often.10/10 respect goes a long way read more

We arrived here at 1 AM for a late dinner after a concert. The vibe of this restaurant was pretty chill and it terms of cleanness, it was okay. Not our first time, but we've noticed they are consistently understaffed at this hour. Servers took a while to come and take our order, and the food also took a while to come out. So, if you're super hungry, we don't recommend going to this Denny's. Our server was pretty nice, and the food was good, though nothing special. Parking was free and easy. Def not a place we would go to often though but once in a while it fine. read more

Today was one of those perfects days to go out and enjoy with the family and friends.. Happily we made the best choice and hit Denny's witch made myself so happy and it gave me the feeling like staying longer and relax after my meal, AC was perfect, music and cleanliness excellent. read more
