The food was cold. I literally was watching and waiting for my food but still somehow managed to be cold. People are inside but was not able to add anything else to my order due to the fact they closed the kitchen early. Should up before 12. I mean I don't understand why it's so hard to have a place be open and working during their hours of operations. read more

I was craving some Spaghetti and meatballs and decided to go to Denny's because I hadn't gone in a few years. I also noticed they had "Loaded Nacho Tots" in their menu, which looked interesting so I ordered that as well. I ordered the spaghetti with sautéed mushrooms. Everything was good. The spaghetti had a the right portion of marinara sauce, the meatballs were delicious, and the loaded nacho tots were good too! I don't go to Denny's too often, but when I do go, I never leave there dissatisfied. The workers are always very kind, the food is good, and there's plenty of variety to choose from. Is it an absolute mind blowing restaurant that is on my top favorites list? Probably not, but it's a solid restaurant that I can definitely see myself going to again in the future. read more

Gave it a chance since it was right off base. Restaurant was disgusting. Floors and tables were sticky. Food took 32 minutes to come out and when we got it, the order was wrong. The food was terrible. read more

Food wasn't bad. Service was sub par, seemed like only one person was working at the time.

DON'T ORDER TAKEOUT FROM THIS LOCATION! I had placed an order through Yelp (grubhub) today and when my boyfriend got there to pick it up he was told that I never placed an order with them. He showed them my confirmation number and my receipt and they argued with him saying that they won't reimburse us because it is "our fault"... she said they never got our order and it had to be a mistake on our end. Even with proof that we had done everything correctly she still continued to argue. They finally remade it but when we got back home we noticed the eggs were cooked wrong (asked for over easy not scrambled) and the hash browns were very under cooked. read more

Yes.... I'm a foodie and I detest chain restaurants. I do not like the corporate culture or its corporate commissaries. But sometimes I overlook my bias and judge a place for what it is. An In n Out burger, or a Grand Slam breakfast at Denny's are examples of just simple and perfect execution. This Denny's location is perfect for my commute when I need to be in San Diego. Easy off and on the 5 Fwy, clean bathrooms and very fast and friendly service. For ten bucks I get a perfect meal. Coffee, orange juice, buttermilk pancakes, over easy eggs, hash browns, bacon and sausage. Now, the sausage and hash browns can be upscaled with special ingredients, but simple perfection need not be tampered with. I get exactly what I want, prepared in a manner I expect. Foodies need not apply. read more

I know it's a franchise but I just have to say, out of all the Denny's i've ever been to, this is by far the best one. We stopped by on our way home to San Diego at 1AM coming from Taylor Swift's Reputation Tour in Pasadena. The interior is clean, the dishes actually looked delectable, and the servers are nice. My only comment is for the servers to be a bit more careful with serving the dishes as they come out of the kitchen. They served my meal to a different table so I had to wait for another dish to be made by the kitchen staff. They were very apologetic about it so I did not make a big deal out of it. Great Job to everyone at this location! Will be visiting again! EDIT: I just paid and they gave me a discount for the order delay due to the mixup! I did not even ask for it but they gave it to me! Really really great customer service! Kudos to Kristen and her team! read more

Nice place to have breakfast, I like going after my morning gym workout. Enjoy a good morning coffee

the food was really good food came really fast and friendly kind waitress thank you Jocelyn

Daisy is such a sweet hostess! I like coming to this Denny's more than any other because though packed, there's never a long, long wait and their hostesses are always right around the corner, ready to help. Their food is always warm and freshly made and I like the outside view! Busy, busy it always is, but it's always inviting. Love this Denny's Never a bad moment. read more

Had better experiences at Dennys. When they are busy i jusy know that things will not go as I wish they should've. The eggs weren't as good as I'm used to from Dennys. Also the salad wasn't even close to what I'm used to. One good thing was here, the Service. Our waiter really did the best he could to remind us why weblogs Dennys so much. read more

Extremely rude staff, called in for a phone order and had some questions. Made me feel as if I was being a nuisance or bothersome by inquiring about something I HACE TO PAY FOR AND EAT!. Sorry the website menu doesn't explain possible substitute options for allergy items. Either way, I have been coming here for years unfortunately being the primary restaurant outside the gate of a military base but I've reached my boiling point with rude customer service so I decided this time to actually write a review. Take the 2 mon drive and go to Angelo's or IHOP! read more

There was a time when I vowed never to darken the doors of a Denny's again, but through a series of mishaps while "zombie hunting", the better half and I found ourselves extremely hungry and with very limited options (not to mention my loving wife's bladder was about to burst). So when we pulled out of Camp Pendleton, there was a Denny's staring back at us ... mocking us! Rohlinism: Some vows are meant to be broken! Upon entering, this location was strangely busy considering it was midnight and we were told by one of the people at the cashier station ( http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/dennys-oceanside-4#-DvRBP6rCvcwdUjr6QDzwg ) that it would be a few minutes. Apparently one of the local high schools was celebrating Homecoming and a number of the students had decided to come here to eat after the dance. Things have changed since I was in high school. If I suggested Denny's after a formal dance, I am pretty sure it would terminate my dating career on the spot! At least the wait gave Laina the time she needed to use the facilities which were very clean. Once we were seated our server came over and took our drink order, but it took a good ten minutes to get a Cherry Sprite and Iced Tea. By the time the server returned with the drinks, we were more than ready to order. Laina selected the Lumberjack Slam: ( http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/dennys-oceanside-4?select=EnTC0v6i0FY0YQ9S97CPWw#a9FLORd7-K5JmGTRMa-xyg ) ( http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/dennys-oceanside-4?select=-DvRBP6rCvcwdUjr6QDzwg#T-vzV887EchwKo3OlvL4oQ ) Consisting two buttermilk pancakes, a slice of grilled ham, two bacon strips, two sausage links and two eggs, plus hash browns and choice of bread (my better half substituted an additional slice of ham for the bacon and sausage). I ordered the Bourbon Bacon Burger ( http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/dennys-oceanside-4?select=EnTC0v6i0FY0YQ9S97CPWw#NIgcnyt8W2_JszuCBkN7hA ) which is a beef patty topped with Cheddar cheese, bacon, sautéed onions and mushrooms. Served on a Cheddar bun with lettuce, tomato, red onions, pickles and a sweet bourbon sauce and a side ( I chose the Wavy-Cut Fries). I also ordered a plate of the Red Velvet Pancake Puppies ( http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/dennys-oceanside-4?select=-DvRBP6rCvcwdUjr6QDzwg#EnTC0v6i0FY0YQ9S97CPWw ) with Cream Cheese Icing. While we were waiting for our food, we took some time to observe the staff and manager. The staff looked overwhelmed at times and several things were forgotten. I was never offered a refill on my drink (my better half was offered) and the extra butter Laina requested with her pancakes was forgotten (by the time she got it the pancakes were cold). The manager appeared to be more suited for a padded cell than restaurant management. She spent part of time talking to herself and the other part giving orders that were reluctantly followed by the staff. It was pretty much "the lunatics have taken over the asylum" feel through the whole meal. The food finally arrived and what can I say ... it is Denny's. It probably tasted a little better than it should because we were famished, but still you could still see and taste the inferior quality. My better half's scrambled eggs were probably the highlight of the meal, nicely cooked, somewhat fluffy and plenty of cheese. She wasn't told the cheese was extra, but I doubt it was have deterred her had she been informed. The ham had grizzled pieces (never seen that on ham) and the ham quality was rather poor. The hash browns were more cooked than Laina would have liked and the pancakes were somewhat spongy. I had requested my burger medium rare and I got medium well. This may be the only way they cook their burgers, but if I am getting shoe leather, I just want to know in advance. The bacon wasn't crisp and quite fatty, the rest of the toppings were meh. The bun was bland considering it is supposed to be a cheddar bun. The Bourbon sauce had a chance to be a hero here, but ended up being weak and watery. The Wavy-Cut fries were a nice golden brown and with a soft potato interior. The "puppies" were almost devoid of chocolate flavor, but icing was a saving grace and had a nicely balanced sweetness. If you are looking for a good amount of food at cheap prices and don't care about abusing your palate, then Denny's is the place for you! read more

I ordered a pick up order from this place last night and while my son and I are doing fine, my husband has serious food poisoning from the skillet he ordered. He said he thought the egg didn't look completely done and it tasted off, but he'd already eaten most of it after seeing some raw egg. They got my son's order wrong and gave him soggy bananas on top of his BURNT chocolate pancakes. The food was cold upon picking it up. When I arrived to the store and asked for my order (I was the only pick up yesterday evening) the waiter was socializing with the cook and manager. I waited for over 15 minutes for food that was supposed to already be ready to go, and when the manager asked the waiter if it was ready, he was like "Yeah dude, it's right there. It's done." No it wasn't. My food wasn't closed up and sat and got cold. They forgot the fruit I asked for (and after seeing the bananas I'm glad they did) and didn't thoroughly cook my husband's food. This place has gone downhill. It's awful. Definitely never eating here again. read more

I walked into a Denny's just now today the one in Oceanside across the bridge by the mobile gas station at 1:14 AM and there's no easy way to say this, but my pancakes, smell like shit ! !! Because you see today is not just Mother's Day. Today is also my birthday so when I show the Spanish lady my ID and I said do you still do the free grand slam she said yes but you gotta go onto the app and then when the app wasn't working, she said don't worry about it with a attitude and then when she served me my food, she gave me a strange look anyway after the look something just told me smell your pancakes and I did and for some strange reason it smelled like shit was cooked with the breading. That's the best way I can describe it. Maybe she was angry because I wanted free food on my birthday, but if you want my opinion, please don't eat there unless you want to eat shitty pancakes like the white girl in the help movie because as of right now, I feel extremely violated . ..1 read more

Pretty good Denny's in Oceanside, right across from Camp Pendelton. Been here a couple times, and always a favorite stop on our way to San Diego or back. Came this Sat. Ordered me one of there signature salads, and it was so good. Service was on the ball, and place was really clean. read more

Well it's a Dennys and they have a huge selection of food. My wife actually loves the nachos during Covid for take out. They mix everything separately with the chips so they don't get soggy right away. Its a good last minute place to get food. read more

Don't usually rate Dennys but this one is special. The grilled haddock dinner for seniors was out of this world. Usually don't order fish at Dennys but this is Oceanside. Perfectly cooked with homemade mashed potatoes and grill squash. Generous dinner salad and garlic toast. Plus I tried the new Green smoothie. So good!!!! Great waitress Cassandra as well. Will stop here again on our way to San Diego read more

This is for my visit on 10/28/2018 between 12-1pm. My waitress was great. If I'm remembering correctly her name was Andrea. She was attentive and very nice. HOWEVER, as a customer (and former retail manager) when you walk into an establishment you expect to get greeted nicely and professionally. My husband and I walked in with our daughter and there was no smile or friendly greeting, just asked us how many there were and if we needed a kids menu. She took us to our tables and seemed annoyed when we asked for a car seat stand/chair. I thought it was just me but even my husband thought she came off rude and unwelcoming. They sat us by the door so I saw when customers came in she'd look up from what she was doing and not say anything, then continue on until someone else greeted them. If you're going to have a greeter at your establishment, at least make sure they're friendly and welcoming. read more

After placing an online order, and finding out once at the restaurant it was rejected, then being refused service from the server. I will never come to this Dennys. Absolutely rude, mean, and no care to people visiting out of town and having no options left to eat within 10 miles besides the basic nasty Fast Food. Hours are posted differ from website, online, and food ordering platforms. Very misleading read more

This Denny's always has Cholula sauce which is my absolute fav! The staff is beautiful, especially Suzi!! she has extremely good hospitality skills. This Denny's is beautiful because it is located near the Oceanside harbor which is great to go after and walk off those hash browns and eggs and fruit and BACON that I preferred this morning. I come here often in the early morning around 230 in the morning and it never disappoints with there coffeeee! I come for the food and continue because of the service! read more

Denny's - Cholula sauce makes this a meal. - Diners Near Me - Oceanside, California

This Denny's is our usual spot we stop at before arriving in San Diego. The servers are always friendly and the place is always clean. The Denny's is sandwiched between a Chevron and Mobile gas station so you can eat and gas up in one place. When I normally order my hearty breakfast skillet the portions normally fill or overfill the plate but today it seemed like they rationed out their food. My skillet was about 3/4 full of food. The food tasted great but I feel a bit shorted on my portion size. My wife ordered the Super Bird with avocado, which the waitress recommended but when she got it there was no avocado in sight. As we sat there trying to flag down the waitress we hear another table talking to their waitress about an item missing from their order. I guess the cook in the back was having an off day with their cooking. This one experience will not keep me away and we will be back the next time we are in the area. read more

The menu you order from does NOT have lower prices choices that are still available during this time, such as the $4.99 Value Slam. I ordered it a few days ago, but you have to ask for it. I think this is a very unethical business practice at this time of pandemic. Money is tighter at this time and this Denny's has no interest other than themselves. From about 4 months ago after first reopening from the coronavirus, they took away more economical meal choices from the abbreviated menu; you can still get them just the same, but you have to ask them for it. I won't be going back, this is very unerhical in times of a pandemic. read more

Worst customer service ever. After screwing up my order by no delivery after almost 90 minutes, their best was to tell me to call corporate (??) tomorrow, despite being charged for over 60$ on my card, and to keep hanging up on me. I've ordered large orders from same Denny's, last one was 2 days prior for over 105$ with no problem, but I NEVER will again. Buyer beware. Now I've got to go to my bank for cancellation of fraud charges which takes up to 3 months. DO NOT PATRONIZE ONLY TO EVENTUALLY LOSE YOUR MONEY. They do not care about customer loyalty AT ALL. You have been warned. read more

Waiter was really rude when I asked for a straw. We even politely called her over but she ignored us multiple times so we went the whole meal not having part of our order. She only came back to give us the check but didn't say a word and just glared at us rudely. Worst Denny's experience read more

I have passed this place many times and when my mom came to visit I decided to give it a try. Over priced, cheap quality but gets the job done. So for a Sunday morning we got served very quick. The sevice was alright, server forgot a few items and some straws for us and gave us minimal attention. Overall she had a good attitude. Food price is a bit high but be warned the server asked we wanted cheese on our eggs and we of course took it and found out we got change 89cents extra. So that was a bit annoying, at least mention it to us that we get charged. Place was clean and if I ever get too lazy this would be my 3rd option after IHOP and McDonalds read more
