    My receipt today's meal

    Yelp Review - Denny's Northridge (Visited July 13 at ~12:30pm I'm deeply disappointed to be writing this review. My mother and I have been coming to this Denny's in Northridge since 1978 -- back when I was a child, and now as adults with our own kids. It's been a multigenerational tradition. Sadly, today may have been our last visit. We came in around 12:30 PM and were seated by who I believe was the manager, Jose, near the kitchen area in a booth. We waited nearly 10 minutes with menus in hand and no acknowledgment from any server. Finally, a Filipino waitress with no name tag approached us. I said, "Finally someone's here. I thought you all were on strike," in a lighthearted but truthful way to express our frustration. Instead of a smile or reassurance, we got a curt attitude in return. She brushed it off, saying they were busy. We mentioned we were hungry, and she responded in an impatient, almost annoyed tone. Her demeanor felt rushed, brash, and impersonal from the start. We ordered two Grand Slams. I believed I was ordering the $10.99 Grand Slam advertised on the poster in the window, but I was charged nearly $20 for mine. I also asked for decaf coffee for my mom -- she brought regular. When I told her about the mistake, she didn't apologize and just walked off to get another without much care. I requested that we place our to-go order after eating so the food wouldn't get cold, but she never came back to take it. Every time I asked for something, it felt like a burden to her. The coffee was cold, and when I brought it up, she shrugged and rushed away. Her communication was unclear, and unfortunately, the language barrier made it harder to connect. Eventually, after waiting another 10-15 minutes for the check and not seeing her again, I had to go up to the front to speak to Jose. His attitude wasn't much better. When I asked about the Grand Slam pricing, he gave me a dismissive explanation, almost as if I were a child, and acted like I should have just accepted the mistake. No apology, no effort to make things right. Instead, he backed up the waitress completely, giving the impression that our complaint was just a nuisance. We spent over $52 and left feeling like we weren't valued at all. I work as an executive healthcare recruiter and home health specialist and have strong relationships with over 40 care facilities. I make it a point to recommend businesses that treat customers with care and respect. Unfortunately, I'll be warning my network to steer clear of this Denny's and consider alternatives like IHOP across the street -- where the service has consistently been friendlier and more professional. It's truly disheartening to be treated this way after decades of loyal patronage. We left church this morning talking about loving our neighbor -- and it's incredibly hard to do that when you're met with rudeness, neglect, and arrogance. Denny's corporate needs to take a hard look at what's happening at this location. Poor service, unqualified management, and a dismissive attitude are a recipe for losing loyal customers like us. We won't be returning. - Albert V.

    I've been coming to this Denny's for a while and I've never been disappointed. I love that they are open 24 hours and the service is always fast! I usually get the build your own slam where you can pick 4 from a variety of options. It's perfect to satisfy any late night breakfast cravings! From the colors to the booths, Denny's always has such a classic feel to it.

    Well this was a disappointing experience. Grub hub takeout. Ordered burnt ends with Mac and cheese. The portion looked quite small. If I were served that at the restaurant I would have returned it. Not worth the money. Didn't even taste good. The Mac and cheese tasted fake and the predominant flavor of the entire meal was salt. Look at the picture... is that $24 worth of food? Never again.

    10:30 for breakfast and ordered a Denver omelette. Described as made with fresh uncooked bell pepper, onions, tomatoes and cheddar cheese. Only they grilled everything beyond recognition, including the cheese. What a mess. The waitress said she was sorry, that she had not seen a Denver omelette like this in all her 23 years serving. The manager basically said tough luck. Took off 20% from the omelette. Worst of all their omelettes are now $17. Wow, I would stay away from this Dennys.

    I love this location. The people are so helpful and positive. Love the environment and energy. Thank you night shift on Sunday, October 5 1-2am! Food was also so great and yummy!

    I came here with my husband for breakfast and we were seated right away even though they were a little busy. Our waiter came fairly quickly to take our drink order while we looked at the menu. We each order a dish and shared. Everything was delicious except the hash browns were slightly cold and slightly burnt. Everything else was hot and flavorful and cooked well. There is plenty of seating inside. There were no more booths so we sat at a table with chairs. There is plenty of parking and the service was good. I would definitely go back and ask for my hash browns hot and crispy but not burnt.

    Service was okay but this place is so dirty. Hay managers get out of the office and take good look from a customer perspective.

    Very satisfied customer with the menu.

    Enjoyed our first time dining at Horseless Carriage Restaurant on Roscoe Blvd on a Friday…read moreafternoon. Great recommendation by my beloved brother. This eatery provided excellent customer service, thanks to Margarita. Horseless Carriage Restaurant was busy and plenty of people dining. As soon as we walked in Margarita welcomed us and walked us to our booth. She made some suggestions and informed us of their famous plates on the menu. We decided to try our her recommendations. We ordered Carne Asada Skillet Special, Sunny Side Special Burger with Fries and 2 orders of Fish & Chips. Food was yummy. The Carne Asada Skillet Special was served on a sizzling plate. It's was more than enough for one person. The Sunny Side Burger with Fries is huge and plentiful. Patty was tender and not overcooked nor undercooked. It was the right temperature. Fish N' Chips was also on point. We can't wait to come back and try other food items on Horseless Carriage Restaurant's menu.

    I've been coming to the Horseless Carriage Restaurant with my family for brunch for quite some time…read morenow, and it's consistently one of our go-to spots. One of the best things about this place is how quickly we're seated - almost every visit, we're able to get a table right away. The food is always delicious, and the waffles are definitely a standout - crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and just overall satisfying. Another favorite of mine Country Fried Steak. The gravy sauce is tasty and the steak itself is very good. Coupled with hash browns and 2 eggs - it's a great dish. Service is another highlight here. The staff is friendly and attentive, coffee and water refills are constant, and the food comes out quickly without feeling rushed. Parking right next to the restaurant can be a bit limited, but there's usually plenty of street parking nearby, so it's manageable. One unique thing I really enjoy is that it's connected to Galpin Ford. It's actually pretty fun to walk through the showroom and check out the cars while waiting for a table or even after finishing your meal. Overall, it's a reliable and enjoyable brunch spot with great food, solid service, and a unique atmosphere. Definitely a place we'll keep coming back to.

It's moist with a crispy outer edge and the right amount of salt to taste but not be salty. Most of the items on the menu have pretty large portion sizes, and there is a vast selection of items. Nothing shouts out at us to give the food an upstanding 5/5, but this is still a solid pick for an American diner. Note that if you order anything with strawberries (including the fruit cup), you will get exactly 1 strawberry cut into 4 pieces to ration during your meal. Service: 2.5/5 There is one person manning the floor the majority of the time, and he does a good job managing multiple tables. We came in at 9 am on a workday and there were already 25 people in the restaurant, all managed by this one waiter. There is another person who pops in every now and then to deliver food and refill coffee. That said, don't expect to be checked in on often or to quickly get your order in. Also, special requests may or may not be satisfied-- I requested that the whipped cream in my waffle order came on the side, only for it to come right in the middle of my waffle. Atmosphere: 4/5 It's a lively place! This is a popular and long lasting restaurant for a reason. The music is not loud, and there is a comfortable amount of space between each table. I would recommend this place for a family meal, a casual work outing, or a date for an established couple. Final rating: 3.33/5 (rounding down to 3 on Yelp)

I usually visit the Toluca Lake location, which opened in 1949 and is known as the only remaining "original" Bob's Big Boy. The restaurant has been open for a few years now under its current ownership. When it first reopened, it had a different owner and reportedly faced some challenges, which eventually led to the change. The food tastes just as good as I remember. The interior has that classic diner/cafe feel, and like the Toluca Lake spot, they host a Cruisin' Night every Friday--essentially a fun mini car show in the parking lot. My go-to order is the Big Boy Combo with ranch dressing on the salad, well-done fries generously seasoned with seasoned salt, and a Vanilla Coke to wash it all down. If I'm feeling indulgent, I'll add a Strawberry Shake or a Hot Fudge Cake for dessert. Both are generously portioned and perfect for sharing.
