    Cinnamon pancakes
    Rayna T.

    This was our first stop after a 3 hour drive. I'll be honest, the area felt a little sketchy at first. I parked right out front and asked to sit by the window so I could keep an eye on my car. That said, the staff was incredibly friendly. I really appreciated their energy and how attentive they were. I ordered some sweet pancakes (can't remember the exact name or flavor), but they were a bit dry, and the fries were slightly overcooked. Still, it was a decent spot to grab a quick bite before heading to the hotel.

    Every is different company all is around. Is all these people on the table.

    I have to be proof enough for you. How about convincing me? Also, if I can make a good food, friends, and time, now this would mean breakfast and lunch.

    Seasoned Fries

    The food was amazing and the server mariah is so sweet she met all of our needs and brought food and drinks so fast she's also so polite and asked us how we are doing !

    The best place to get a late night breakfast...preferably breakfast before 11am! They have a menu full of omelets, breakfast favorites, and more! The servers are attentive. And if you're down for a 50's diner vibe with some finesse, this is your place to go

    Dirty utensils
    Mr A.

    I don't understand what is happening with Denny's, but I hope you read this review. Ms. L was our server for the night. She came took our orders and then proceeded to wait on other tables. I ordered a double avocado cheeseburger with mushrooms. My wife ordered the breaded chicken with vegetables. While Ms. L was walking past me she noticed that I was looking at the utensils she had previously left at our table. She asked if anything was wrong. I pointed out that the utensils still had food from the previous customer. She went and got us plastic utensils to use instead. Finally our order came in and my burger did not have the mushrooms I had asked for. The chicken my wife ordered was severely undercooked. It was still pink. If you don't know what could happen if you eat raw chicken meat please take the time to Google it. Make your own judgement and be safe.

    The hostesses with the mostest.  You rock girls!!!!

    The service and food at this Denny's blew me away today. Cindy, Cassandra and he staff were courteous and kind. Quick with coffee and drinks. Able to make changes to our orders as we are vegetarian. Definitely coming back here when I am passing through

    Breakfast
    Kate G.

    It was amazing breakfast! I highly recommend this place to all who want to take a very tasty breakfast! Also I can definitely tell that the working personal were polite and professional. Next time will go there!

    T-Mobile Tuesday not honored at Denny's for take out.

The fries were also crunchy, which is my personal preference for fries. I don't like fries that are super soggy. They did have a special the time that I went where they had like a barbecue burger/patty melt , which is the second burger pictured in this post. It's also pretty reasonably priced and in my opinion affordable. Service was really quick. They were packed when we were there and they were able to get out the food relatively quick. It's definitely like a burger joint you go you order and then you pick up your food there isn't that much customer service involved. Inside they have a huge painting of a burger, which I forgot to take a picture of, but they also have a really clean, which was nice. Anyways, I think it's really good. I would definitely go here again!

The restaurant was not very busy and it took almost 20 mins just to be seated at our table. We then took our place at the table and we waited another 10-15 mins for someone to wait on us. We kindly flagged the young male server there and asked him if he could get our server to assist us. The young female server finally came out to assist us - she was not very welcoming but proceeded to take our drink order. It took almost 15 minutes to get our mimosas and water. She did not greet us, inquiry if it was our first time there or gave us suggestions on the menu. She then proceeded to take our order which took a while to get our food. The plus - everyone enjoyed our meals from the way they were prepared to the ingredients. No one ever came to our table and gave us any water nor did they ask for a refill on our drinks. During this time I peeked around the corner and saw staff just sitting in the back talking to one another. I tried to keep the experience positive for my group of friends but they were also growing concerned about the lack of hospitality. The lunch schedule was only until 2 pm but because of Rainbird's delay in seating us, taking our drink orders as well as the slight delay we felt we were now being rushed to finish our lunch, I also wanted to celebrate our friend's birthday and I brought a cake - the server proceeded to tell me it would be a $5 charge per person if I cut the cake there. She did offer to bring a complimentary dessert for our guest of honor. In my opinion, due to the service we were not receiving the cake fee should have been at least discounted or offset due to the lackluster enthusiasm and service. As we were trying to finish our lunch and take pictures at this beautiful establishment we could see the "side eyes" of staff rushing to get us out the door. I am a firm believer of supporting small businesses in Merced since I was born and raised there and let's face it - Merced has very limited fine dining and we wanted to do something nice for us. In order for small businesses to thrive in this town they need our consumerism to stay in business. As I read from all the exemplary reviews on this platform we unfortunately had a very bad experience with this lovely establishment. A group of us came from Madera so that we could meet our gals from Merced as a middle location. Needless to say we were very disappointed with the service as well as the treatment we received from Rainbird. Next year we will choose another location for our next gathering. Please do better Rainbird.

We started off with the steamed mussels which were excellent - large meaty mussels in a roasted tomato garlic broth. The broth was so good we both spooned it down long after the mussels were gone. This was followed by the beet salad which was the classic pairing of bitter arugula with the sweet beets. The crab and lobster ravioli as our main course didn't disappoint - lots of sweet crab and lobster meat stuffed into each ravioli, all draped with a creamy rich sauce. We topped off our meal with another classic - crunchy cannoli fingers. Mmm, good! Our friendly server gave us excellent wine service and food suggestions. The back dining room was cheerfully noisy and gave off the vibe of eating at your Italian Grandmother's house. We had a great time, highly recommended.

    Second Visit -- Unfortunately My Last…read more This was my second time eating at The BarBQ Pit, and unfortunately it will probably be my last. Whenever I'm working in cities outside my hometown, I try to support local restaurants. Since I'm in Merced several days a week, I wanted to give this place a second try and see if my first experience might have just been an off day. First Visit (about three months ago): The service was excellent. The waitress was attentive, anticipated what I needed, and checked in regularly. I was seated quickly and everything ran smoothly. I ordered the BBQ sampler so I could try a little bit of everything. The waitress mentioned that the meats are smoked daily, which sounded promising. That said, the food itself was fairly average. Nothing was bad, but nothing stood out either. The hot wings were completely middle-of-the-road. For the price point, the food felt mediocre. Second Visit: This visit unfortunately went worse. I was seated quickly again, but it took about 10 minutes before either of the two waitresses came to take my order. One waitress took my drink order, and later another came over to check on me. When I told her I was ready to order, she said the other waitress would come back to take it. That interaction felt a little strange since she was already there but wouldn't take the order herself. I ordered the hot wings again (same as before, just average) and a French Burger because I was curious what it was. It turned out to be a regular burger patty on a French roll with lettuce, tomato, and pickles. Nothing particularly unique about it besides the bread. Unfortunately, that's where the experience went downhill. On two separate sections of the French roll, there was visible mold. At that point I completely lost my appetite and couldn't finish the meal. I don't know if the French rolls don't get used very often or if the bread turnover is slow, but either way this should have been caught before it reached a customer. Moldy bread should never make it out of the kitchen. To be fair, the waitresses themselves were very polite. Service was slower than I expected, but they were friendly. When I was leaving they even offered me a refill and a cup of iced tea to go, which was a thoughtful gesture. Unfortunately, being served moldy food is something I can't overlook. Because of that, I don't think I'll be returning.
