I took my 100% disabled 91 year old Korean war vet dad that walks with a walker, and my 85 year old mother that has Lupus, to Mojave Dennys for their Veterans Day free Denny's breakfast. They both are vets and so both of them were very excited about getting breakfast and taking it home to eat. Because of covid 19 and their age and health, they could not eat at the restaurant - it would be just too dangerous. I was surprised people were even being seated, since most counties in CA at this time are completely shut down for indoor dining and it's cold out this time of year, so eating outside is not even an option. Every listing online that showed Dennys was rewarding war vets with a free breakfast, said that it was for "Dine in or take out". When we walked in Denny's a woman that was acting as possibly a manager around age 50 came up and barked at us in an nearly violent and very angry manner, saying that the owner of the restaurant will not let any vet take their breakfast to go, that they have to eat their breakfast there inside the restaurant. I started explaining to this woman that they are elderly and can't eat there because of covid 19, and that every online post that showed Denny's was offering this free breakfast for vets, showed that it was for "dine in or takeout". She snapped back at me and screamed at me; "stop chastising me!" I said I wasn't chastising you, I was only telling you what all the posts online said that this vet breakfast at Denny's showed "dine in or takeout". The whole time I was saying this she was yelling over the top of me and screaming that "IT'S DINE IN ONLY!" So I took my old folks out the door and we all hobbled back to our car and we went home. Yes I hobble a bit too, since a few years ago I had a major stroke. It's rough too, because I'm my folks sole caretaker - no one helps me - it's 100% me with "zero help" from anyone. Dennys treating them this way really hurt and upset my dad and mom, so it really upset me too, so we will never eat at this Denny's ever again and I plead with everyone, do not eat there, because the owner allows old crippled disabled sick war vets to be treated like trash and he kicks them out of his restaurant if they ask for takeout - this Dennys was so disrespectful. Another thing that was crazy, was that when we walked into this Dennys the place reeked of sewer gas. It was beyond anything I've ever smelled anywhere, it smelled as if we took a rotten egg and smashed it on our N95 face masks. We could actually smell it strongly through our masks, and these 3m N95's you can't even smell perfume or food through. I would think the health department would have a problem with this and to think, the owner was forcing war vets that came there for their free breakfast to sit there and eat it in that stinch. Trust me, anyone walking through that door would have turned around and immediately left, unless they came there for their free vets breakfast, so everyone sitting in there in that terrible rotten egg stench must have been war vets that were forced to eat their breakfast in that terrible stench. read more
