Had to wait 5 minutes to get seated in a nearly empty restaurant. I ordered breakfast and coffee. I only got 1 cup. My "toast" was just bread with a quarter size dab of spread in the middle. I asked them to change it. Took about 10- 15 mins. read more

By FAR the worst breakfast I've ever had. I have been a cook for over 40 years, and Tony at NP DENNYS hasnt got the first clue about cooking..absolutely dont reccomend..horrible hortiblr read more

Friendly service and great food. Definitely a place that I would choose to take my family again.

If I could rate this place -5 starts I would. I came here with my family a few days ago and the service was terrible. You would've thought it was a full house, but we were two other families there besides us. It took them 20 minutes for them to get us a cup of coffee and 45 minutes to and hour for our food. When we finally did get our food, it was cold. We were very disappointed. read more

Had a bad experience on Christmas day. Specifically with their OATMEAL BRICK. Their rep called my wife from the road, talked for 20 minutes. He said there would be coupons for three free meals in the mail. I guess they got lost! read more

As crazy as it sounds, this is probably the best place around to get a burger, I go in the evening, Angie, and Rebecca are always polite, and funny, I like to go when Matt is cooking, his burgers are out of this world, I've met a few of the managers, they are great, they will help with the tables, and I've seen them hop into the kitchen and cook also, 10/10 would definitely recommend Dennys in North Pekin. read more

I have had good meals at this Denny's and many average meals. But I can say they are a good value, never gotten sick, and I know what I will getting. Sometimes it is a little messy, but never what I would say is dirty. Not a date place, but a good place with the kids. read more

The lobby smells like a baby pooped their pants. The service is very poor. They had a great waiter, but let them go. The shakes take forever to come out. I've had undercook pancakes twice. The place is always dirty with a layer of grime. Think twice before coming here. read more

My dish was awesome. Meat tender. Would recommend the food I ate. Appreciate military discount offered. read more

Denny's - Diners Near Me - North Pekin, Illinois

We come here frequently as it's near the movie theater, but the food is just so so. I ordered a steak medium and it came well done. I got two sides with it. The cheddar mashed potatoes were just instant potatoes with shredded cheddar melted on top. Also got the squash and zucchini, but only received about 6 pieces. And everything came on separate plates and took up half the table. read more

Nasty don't waste you time or money shitty manager cold food bad attitude for the server

Terrible service,understandable wait on food due to fryer being broken but I've never had to go to a bathroom to get paper towels so I at least had a napkin,second order of drinks never arrived after we asked,one member of our party got to watch the rest of us eat while they waited and waited for silverware which along with the napkins wasn't on our table read more

Took the wife in to eat Lunch at 11:45 PM. Our Waitress was Hanna K. Who is Always Wonderful & friendly. I had the Grilled Patty Melt sandwich with fries & my wife had the Parmesan Cheese & Chicken Sandwich With red potato. The food was excellent. A little Mix up on my wife`s order, But Hanna took care of it right away. It was Busy & the Waitstaff was Running around. Trying to do 4 Jobs at once. Hostess, Cashier, Waitress, Busser,& Supply filler, So we did not get Excellent Service But did get Good service, the Manager Finally Came out of his office & started Helping. They really need a full-time Hostess to seat people & be the Cashier, so Waitstaff can Focus on service!! Otherwise a Pleasent experience read more

Usually I'm pretty happy with Denny's but lately they've been a little disappointing. Their staff seems unfriendly and they seem short staffed. My son ordered a shake (he always does when we go) but what he got the last time was half the amount he usually did. Usually it's like the old 50's diners... Fountain cup with whipped cream and cherry and the metal mixer cup with the remaining shake. We were told it was the same amount as always and that all the shake cups were dirty. We came at the middle of the the dinner rush and they only had 2 waitresses that I could see. We waited at least 20 minutes to get our orders taken. The food was decent. read more

I have been to this Denny's a couple of times and I am never impressed. The service is average at best. Today I ordered the chocolate raspberry pancake combo with eggs, red potatoes, and bacon. I also got a glass of chocolate milk, some orange juice, and broccoli. The food was decent, but the broccoli they brought me was served in a very tiny bowl that maybe held 4 tiny pieces and it cost $4. Very pricey. The only other food complaint was that the raspberries looked discolored and weird. The one I ate did not taste very good. Everything else was fine. The waiter also didn't seem very nice and he took a very long time to bring us the bill. This was after he asked if we needed anything else and had cleared some plates. All in all it wasn't the worst experience, but it wasn't great. read more

My review isn't much about the restaurant itself.. it's about the customer service. Only been there twice and a woman named Tequila was our server both times. She is amazing!! And she even remembered us on our second visit making things feel more personable. Very attentive and nice. Would go back as she makes the visit better! read more

It was 10pm. We were seated promptly by a friendly waitress, she said she would be back. We had not visited in a while and we took a while to figure out what we wanted. A different waitress took our order. We ordered nachos as an appetizer. The three of us also got our entree. Our food comes out all together with appetizer. Nachos missing sour cream, husbands plan double cheeseburger is a single burger with pickles, I ordered a sandwich no fries and received fries but had to pay for them. Then it took 10 minutes to get Silverware. Our original Waitress paid us out. Wish we would have had her! Bring Tim back. Thanks. read more

Place is always dirty, and they fired their best waiter! I'll be going to Ihob from now on.

This place never had very amazing food. The new manager seems to have had a personal vendetta to destroy this restaurant. Mission accomplished. You fire the best waiter in Illinois after 24 years. People came for Tim and his service, not for your burnt food and dated restaurant. read more

They are your typical Denny's. The food is as good as any Denny's and the staff is very friendly. I never had any issues with cleanliness of the place. read more

Ate here today for lunch. Good service. Good food. Maybe needs a deep cleaning? Seemed dingy or old.

Lucky for Denny's I cannot give a zero star rating because the management sucks ass. No refills on coffee or water, the place is under staffed, some nights they have only one waitress. We will not be coming back anytime soon as it's a waste of time and money. This Denny's is the last one in the area and will die a slow miserable death because corporate will do nothing about this mess. read more

Simply great very clean had lunch and dinner they were very good and got a discount on my coffee for AARP go figure. It's hard to match their value and take the guest work out of good food and service that's why they been around for over 50 years. read more

Went to this restaurant this afternoon for some quick eats with my family(husband and three kids) we were seated in the left hand rear corner at a booth. We sat for at least 20 minutes with NO SERVICE! No one asked if we were thirsty if anyone had helped us or anything! I get up to speak with one of the waitresses to ask if anyone was coming to serve us(the ONLY black people there) and she said she didn't know because she worked on the other side of the restaurant. So I went live on my Facebook to record the shenanigans happening before me. Spoke with "the manager" she didn't care at all and it showed all on her face WE were not her type of people! The racism that just took place here is ridiculous I WILL NEVER COME BACK AND RECOMMEND THAT ALL AFRICAN AMERICANS STAY AWAY! NO BLACK DOLLARS SHOULD BE SPENT AT THIS ESTABLISHMENT read more

Just tried getting breakfast. They have 1 employee trying to seat people and run the register on a busy Saturday morning. After waiting a while with none of the other parties ahead of us being seated, we left. There were 20-25 unhappy people wanting to be seated who also said they were ready to go elsewhere. read more

The service was OK, but the food wasn't good and we got very small portions. The cashier shorted me $4 but I didn't realize it til I was already in the car. read more

Food is average. Service is well below average. Waitresses have been there so long they are snotty and slow. Needs new management to get back to the Dennys we all like and enjoy. read more

Food quality equal to hospital food. Always have to wait even if they arent busy. Wait for hostess to seat and to check out. Slow slow slow read more

My husband and I stopped by a couple weeks ago to grab something to eat before our 2 hour drive back home. The waitress we had was ok but the food was amazing. We were back in town this evening and decided to stop by again. Our waitress was wonderful, I believe her name may have been Dawn but I'm not certain. I was pleased to see it was the same cook that we had the time before, and he is excellent! Best pancakes I've ever had. We will definitely return on our future visits. read more

I dislike they took the one from peoria do now we have to go all the way to Peking. Just to get some dennys

Absolutely the WORST restaurant visit I have ever had we waited 30 min for our food, which was cold, they were really busy, but as we sat and watched a girl eating ice cream went out to smoke 3 times in 30 min as so much food sat under the warmer and both managers talking to servers and didn't run any food as one server came back to the kitchen stating they didn't want their food bc it was cold. The food would have been really good if it were hot, kudos to kitchen staff they were getting things out. I really could not believe the hostess stood at the window talking to the manager and food setting in the window and several complaints the food was cold. Just terrible management they might as well flushed money down the toilet bc as busy as it was the potential was there to make money. read more

Well where do I start do you guys know what you lost when you fir d Tim Wells! First you are going to lose a ton of business do to Tim being let go after 24 years of service because of someone that probably didn't like Tim's lifestyle! He treated everyone like family and put up with some of the worst drunk customers you can imagine! Tim was late night eats royalty and you took that away from us we came there to Denny's for Tim not the food!!! I could go to McDonald's and get a better meal there! Bring Tim Back!!! read more

This was my go to for dinner for my family. I just read a post that a favorite server had been fired over a phone in complaint. He had over 24 years serving the public. He had the best personality in his profession. He had families that loved his service and also on the complete opposite of the spectrum, after bars closed Tim was a great server for the intoxicated customers also. There was no chain of discipline...just a phone in complaint from a table that were hateful toward him as he was trying to be their server. If this is how North Pekin Denny's treats their faithful and highly requested server, my family and I will not be a part of the games that are being played while this man has lost his livelihood all over a call in complaint. No investigation, no write up in the file, just a walking paper handed to him. Don't get me wrong; he will have no problem getting another job doing what he loves to do. He will be my server down the road somewhere soon. read more

Went there for an after hours with coworkers they boasted how great the service was but never mentioned the food I can see why. 1. Enter the building literally the most disgusting smell slaps you in the face. 2. Seated in near the restrooms in back and was greeted by the server Tim this guy was happy to be at work at 12am okay this is a surprise fast on service obviously recognized coworkers only needed our drink orders brought there's out when they sat down. 3. Took good orders and noted when my wife let them know they were out of TP. 4. Manager sent dishwasher to bathroom in full dishwasher apron and gloves to change TP sat on her butt sucking on soda. While I was Icked out thinking dude handles clean plates in that apron and gloves VIOLATION. 5. Food arrives 1/2 cooked correct 1/4burnt 1/4 undercooked manages still sipping soda not how is everything nothing. Tim apologizes corrects food. 6. Pay tip well cash don't wanna take the chance they split card tips. 7. Leave sickened again by smell in lobby then can make the 30 min drive fast enough to evacuate meal. Would have went back to had that service again won't come back now that I saw on FB they fired him over a call in wow Denny's maybe store owner should fire management bring server back and for God's sake learn the health code clean your business! Preferably without the same gloves u handle food and dishes with. Enjoy your soda and your chair that's about the only thing you had a good handle on. read more
