    Great service and seated right away. Love that they bring a small carafe for your own coffee refills, and lots of creamer and sugar packages. The menu is going to take you a little to decide. Lots of options for breakfast and for the little ones some good specials. Food was ok, and the it's came out quite fast I tried the strawberry vanilla crepes, the vanilla filling was not as thick, making it the crepes a bit runny. The mini pancakes were good, and the kiddos did not complain. The decor brings you back in time, and must visit while you are in the dells.

    I only recommend this location if you have A LOT of extra $$$$ to waste on bad food....OR this is the only place still open and you haven't eaten in a week.....the only redeeming part of the meal is that the kids bland food was acceptable because...well... kids don't like a lot of flavor and they the have a gallon of syrup at the table. For a bland, non flavorful entree you will fork over $13-$18 per entree...and about $4 for a fountain soda.....not exactly the value of any century..... The grand slams are what you come to expect at Denny's....so that might be a positive, but again reach for that gallon of syrup to wash it down. I would suggest skipping the buffalo chicken tenders....they were more tender frozen than after the cook butchered and over cooked these little nuggets of purgatory. Thank goodness the ranch sauce was up to par. (Picture Clark Griswold enjoying these at Christmas dinner....) To wrap this up the service was friendly and about as you'd expect, but again, just skip this spot and wait in line next door at Culver's.....immediate seating is not always a positive situation.... Enjoy! (We did not)

    The outside and inside of the building was really cool, definitely brings back old diner vibes. We ordered the T-bone steak breakfast plates and a kids grand slam, everything was delicious. The waitress was friendly and prompt with our service. Dennys delicious as always, never change!

    Ultimate Omelette- of bland
    Joshua S.

    If you have follow me you know I love Denny's. It's a fantastic Americana that provides a comforting moment whenever you need from coast to cost. Today I learned not all Denny's are created equal. We are on vacation and stopped at a Denny's yesterday somewhere in Iowa and had the warm and comfortable experience I take for granted as a Denny's stop. But today we stopped in to this one in the Dells and it was bummer city. I ordered my usual (I get it about 50% of the time) chicken fried steak and eggs with brown gravy. The lady tells me this location doesn't make brown gravy. What? I have literally been ordering the same thing every other visit for 100s of visits. I am a bit baffled it I collect myself and order what I had yesterday "Santa Fe skillet" simple, safe, I just had it yesterday... "we don't have that." We don't do skillets except one with chicken" I panicked and picked the first thing I saw an omelet. For the record I usually don't get omelets as I love over east eggs but I was in some twilight zone episode where the menu had completely changed literally overnight (less than 24 hours) A world where Denny's doesn't do brown gravy or skillets anymore. It was a panic move I would regret. The omelet came as was bland as can be. Only saved by hot sauce at the table. The bacon was way undercooked as were the hash browns. The place looks cool but that's about all I can say nice about this breakfast.

    Maple Loaded Breakfast Sandwich

    Servers were really funny and nice, the girls made us giggle with stories of other locals. Got the avocado burger and the maple breakfast sandwich both were amazing. Milkshakes were great even gave us the extra in another cup. Silver outside with statues and a perfect photo opportunity

I like that the selection of pancakes flavors was beyond what you usually find at an IHOP. They also do crepes and French toast etc. The portions were pretty big! I shared one a plate of pancakes with another person and we couldn't quite finish it. The pancakes were sweet. I don't think they used fresh berries for the compote. It was satisfying.

Whatever they are doing to get them as thick, creamy and delicious, don't stop. My kids who are avowed egg haters devoured them. The breakfast meats are all top quality. Thick cut bacon, and old style sausage links, both cooked to perfection. The biscuit and gravy is delightful in that way that you can only get by using real ingredients, not from a can. The warm doughnuts are very good, but IMO overrated. They're a cake style that would be mealy once they cooled...not my preference. The ambiance is log cabin shanty with nods to the area's logging past. But honestly by tge time you're seated, you are to frazzled to enjoy it. The bad: The price. When you break it down, it was $90 for four people for breakfast. Ouch! I get it, locally sourced foods, overhead, etc.. but...woah! All in all, we are glad we stopped for the experience. We were saddened to see that the Lumber Jack Show has recently closed. So keep that in mind as you choose your destination.

The "diner" theme was played out throughout, from the signage, tables, tabletop jukeboxes boxes, to the pictures, statues, and menus. I had a great, great omelette with the hash browns, extra crispy, just as I requested. But . . . The added bonus was that servers were attentive, friendly, and engaging. My server, Annalise, particularly caught my attention for what a phenomenal representative she was for the business / restaurant. Not only did she have the three traits above, but she had eyes in the back of her head to ensure that all diners had their needs attended to. She was great with the elderly, the young, and all those in-between!!! An Ambassador for Dennys.

The restaurant is small, casual, and operates on a cash-only basis, so it's worth keeping that in mind before visiting. Unfortunately, the customer service was underwhelming, as the woman who rang us up came across as somewhat unfriendly. The biggest issue was that we found pieces of eggshell in our eggs after we had started eating, which took away from the experience. Overall, it was an okay breakfast, but nothing particularly memorable. We ended up enjoying our meal and overall experience at the IHOP in Wisconsin Dells more.
