Took them 30 minutes for them to even take our order , specified multiple times, even said please no mushrooms , received my food with mushrooms on it. Tell my waiter she doesn't offer me to remake it a discount or a refund didn't eat any of it. Absolutely terrible service. read more

Recently my young grandson and I went to Otsego Denny's. This is his favorite place to go to eat. The food is always delicious and the service outstanding. Our server, Alex, was THE BEST! She was pleasant, kind, knowledgeable, helpful ... all the things that make a great server. Thank you, Alex! We will be back. read more

Always a great place for brunch or breakfast. Bri, a waitress- is the nicest by far and worth asking for to serve your table. Music can be a tad too loud and obnoxious but they have hot coffee and fresh meals. read more

Everything! Delicious food, Exceptional Service, Great prices, very clean and updated facility. Will go back often.

They have an ad for a cook on the door. They need to find one soon so they can fire whoever made breakfast for us this morning.

I'm normally not the biggest fan of Dennys as I had a bad experience with a location in Tampa, but this place is , there is one particular worker that I am very fond of, her name is Michelle, she always makes every trip feel nice and special! thank you Dennys and thank you Michelle! read more

Everything is so good even the Beetlejuice burger! I would recommend this restaurant. It is expensive but it is so worth it for how much you get read more

All the servers were amazing this morning and good was delicious! Every server stopped by asking us if we needed coffee or anything else. Thanks to the Dennys crew! read more

I had to update my review after our excellent service and food recently received. We were met by the owner Laurie Rick who is always so pleasant full of energy. With all of this COVID stuff going on and the challenges hiring staff, Laurie and all the staff have managed to keep Denny's at a high level of service and good food. Denny's has become a regular place for our family to eat for dinner, lunch or breakfast. We have gone many times because it is so convenient only a mile away from home. We have never been disappointed by their service and recently was very pleased by the service provided by our waitress, Michelle. She was very good to check on our large family of seven and our guests from out of town. My favorite dish at Denny's is their new Mediterranean Chicken. Prices are very reasonable. read more

Have had Whitney as a server multiple times, she is awesome. Went a couple days in a row. Had the Moons over my hammy sandwich. Been coming to Dennys for decades, finally had one, I really liked it. We also had a French toast slam, everything cooked perfectly. 4 star due to food taking a little long to come out. Definitely an above average experience!! read more

It seems this restaurant at 9020 Quaday Ave. NE in Otsego is a ghost kitchen for both MrBeastburger and NASCAR Refuel. the Mcbeast burger in terrible, like a meatloaf sandwich, fries were undercooked. Refuel, burger was good, lucky dog completely fell apart so I needed a fork to eat it. again, fries VERY undercooked. read more

What a disappointment. Asked for the Veterans Day grand slam. Went to pay the bill and was told that they don't offer Veterans Day meal because they decided to place my order as BYO. Then they refused to offer veterans discount on top of that. Last time I'll ever go to this location. Disrespect to veterans. Should have went to the Rogers location. At least they offer it. read more

Ordered online pick up, picked the time, showed up 5 min early & cold hamburger & ff is what I got for $22+tip???!!! For cold food, here's a tip, serve hot food on time. Not going back. Culver's is 100% better, quality, price & convenient read more

This was our first time at the location...Zach was our server and I think this is the best Denny's we've been to ....it was busy and they did a great job! Food was awesome service was awesome! read more

Our food was terrible good thing we were at a restaurant so I could get wined and dined before I get fucked by my food. Also two of our chocolate pancakes had blueberries and they could not cook eggs. We found a jalapeño in our pancake and overall terrible. Hated this restaurant.. read more

I used to like to stop in for late breakfast and it had been awhile. Over ten minutes invisible, no server, at about fifteen minutes, it's time to leave. Not busy, and have three servers chatting on the kitchen. This is the second time I've walked out for the same thing. I believe in second chances, but no thirds. read more

My Granddaughters love this place. They love the Oreo shakes and smoothies. I love their burgers.

Cannot believe I watched 3 servers walk by a poor woman and her son who just started vomiting on the floor. These servers saw and chose to walk around this poor family. With vomit the first priority for everyone working should have been to stop and help clean up. Completely ridiculous! read more

I know what you are thinking...seriously, is this broad giving 5 stars to a Denny's? Yes. Yes, I am. Why? I was at this Denny's roughly 10-12 times over 3.5 days. If we were not on wedding duty, we were at Denny's. We saw every shift change, every meal, ever smile in the joint! Each one was 5 stars. Dude - how can you NOT love this place? I mean sure, it is a Denny's. Same menu from coast to coast. Grand slam. Moons over my hammy. We get it. But the staff - AWESOME! We were out of towners (which was evident at our inability to pronounce the town name), some from MN, some from the east coast, some from TX. The Minnesota winter was killing us and each time we walked in we were greeted with a warm welcome, silly banter and a genuine smile. And the claw machine - we rocked that mofo! Dora the Explora who is only worth a quarta..OR COURSE I will pay five dollars for you! The locals patrons even gave us extra quarters to win her when we ran out and gathered around to cheer us on. Overall the place was clean, the food was quick and warm, the "special orders" were right and the staff was very attentive - regardless of the hour or how goofy and annoying we may have been due to exhaustion and or a drink or two. All of which is hard to find these days, anywhere! Thanks Ostego Denny's! And to the server I had the in-depth conversation with about you getting your own HS apart from Elk River -- Ostego Fighting Ostriches Forever!! read more

My wife and I used to go to Denny's in Otsego for our weekly dinner out - often times as an alternative to Rockwoods when they looked packed. The staff at Denny's was always courteous and the food was good. Our last visit changed our view of this restaurant - we are not going to come back. We went there on a Friday night and our server was pleasant but seemed to not have her head in the game. My wife ordered the half plate of nachos. When they arrived we dug in and they were good as usual. I commented that the order seemed large for half an order. We asked our server about that when she came back with our entrees and she looked a bit confused at first then admitted it was a full order of nachos - but not to worry about it. When our check came - sure enough she had billed us for the full order. We asked her about it when we saw her walk by our table and she took our check and was gone for a long time. She came back and sheepishly told us that she got it reduced to the half order price, which meant $3 off. I was kind of expecting to just not be charged for the nachos because of all the hassle - but whatever. We took our check up to the front to pay and leave. The manager was at the cash register (the MANAGER) and she was arrogant and rude and more or less accused us of pulling a fast one on our nacho order (so we could rip Denny's off for $3???). She delivered her accusation as if she were the "all knowing, all seeing" wisened owl! I looked back at her with amazement and disbelief, paid the check, left a $1 tip and we left... and we haven't been back since. As a source of bemusement to ourselves - my wife and I do refer back to this experience as our "Great Nacho Caper" at the Denny's in Otsego because we successfully "scored" $3 in free nachos... :-( read more

I worked there for two months from August to October of this year. The cooks in the kitchen would touch their hair and faces and not wash their hands. The cooks in the kitchen would also eat food in the kitchen and not wash their hands after eating. If a bowl, pan, glass or any other dish fell on the floor nobody would take 10-20 seconds to clean it off with water and soap. The owners do not know how to run a business they are idiots they should have stayed with their original jobs which were nursing and construction. Management sucks too. If I could I would give them 0 stars. read more

Really terrible experience on Friday at lunch. Two of the three of us found hair in our food. One in corn and the other in the fruit. When we told the server, she acted like we were making it up. Accused us of already eating 1/2 the meal. Dont normally inspect an entire meal for hair before i start eating but i guess that is the reccomendation or expectation if you are eating here. Gross and Rude!!! The manager never came out to talk with us. read more

I am giving you a bad review because the pancakes are shit and they were burnt and the waitwr was giving me wierd signals she held two fingers up to her mouth and winked at me I felt uncmofortable the waiter asked me where I went and i that triggers me but your waiters are delicious and ANOKA IS WININNG read more

If I could rate this place zero stars i would. I had a lady names Kathy as my server. She was so rude and just slow as all heck. The inappropriate things she says is unbelievable. The owner was there last time and none of this went on. When the cats away the moce will play read more

Took my sixth grade teacher here for lunch last weds noon. Great Cobb chicken salad, hubby had salmon and teacher had chicken strips with soup. It was clean uncluttered and noise level was appreciative. Teacher is 89 now so it was her turn to choose the place to eat, she picked Denny's. I recall eating at many Denny's around the country. All rage way from ?Minnesota to California. Always a great affordable choice with satisfying meals. read more

Great remodel and the new menu knocks it out of the park. Great service great food great price. Stop keeping this place a secret one of the best restaurants in area. read more

Thank you Laurie and your staff for making our family get-together a memorable day. The food was absolutely great and your service and patience with our large group was amazing. Now I found many more menu items I am going to try. read more

Great service, food was hot and as advertised and it was very clean (not immediately after my 2 yr old was finished eating but I am sure they cleaned up the mess right away). Our server was very accommodating to us- we will be back ASAP! read more

Waitress took the order for 5 of us. After a bit she came back to say they did not have the ingredients to make my food, so I ordered something else. It took quite a while but all the food came. Mine was very hot, freshly made. The rest of our group had food that obviously had been just kept warm. After a couple bites I found myself chewing on something that I ended up spitting out....it was a bread tie. The waitress took my plate, had fresh food made....so nice. But by now everyone was done eating, so I asked for a box to take my food home. My food was comped....oh how nice. But no apologies. We had planned to use the birthday app but did not order it correctly so they would not give the discount. I don't have anything good to say about the management. An apology goes a long way. The birthday discount should have been given. Our entire bill should have been discounted, even a small amount would have gone a long way. I really felt like no one cared and I won't be back....and I will share my experience with anyone who will listen to me! read more

Saturday morning, 10:30 am. Took over 20 minutes to get a waitress to take our order, took almost an hour to receive our food. Talked to manager.....the answer was "it's Saturday we are busy, you should expect to wait an hour for food". Flip Side: Perkins Elk River around same time: Food arrived in 12 minutes and they had a lobby full of people waiting. I guess Perkins wants my business more than Denny's Neither the waitress or the manager gave a rats rear end that it was so slow. read more

We have had office meetings here is the past. Good food and very friendly and helpful. We were able to use one of their rooms to be able to talk and meet a little more privately and overall it is a great place. read more

My wife and I have been coming to this Denny's since it was Embers, then the Otsego Cafe, now Denny's. This location has always been a great place to eat, great food, great staff, sometimes some bad live music, but the people the music is catering towards are always having a blast. The one time, out of the hundreds of visits, that we had our order wrong, they corrected it very quickly and still gave us a discount, because they are one of the few restaurants that care about their customers these days. That shows all over the entire place. You walk into this Denny's and you begin to feel like family. My wife is pregnant, and they have remembered this every time and many of the staff members stop by and talk to us while we are there. I know this is just a Denny's but this like no other Denny's or casual sit down we have been to. Whenever my wife and I can't decide where to eat, we always end up here, no matter how far we have to drive. Management is superb and so are the wait staff. I would recommend them to any one looking for good food, and a great atmosphere. read more

I love the atmosphere, especially the antique pictures of old elk river and otsego. Staff is always friendly and smiling. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. read more

I like this Dennys better than other ones nearby. The service is better and the restaurant itself is cleaner. We have always enjoyed the food. It is not fabulous, but filling and tasty. We have come at many different times and have always been happy with our choice. They have great Groupon deals, too and you can sign up for their club, too. read more

Good food, good service. We got seated pretty quickly and got our drinks and order taken fast. It did take us quite awhile to actually get our food though. But the wait staff was very nice and accommodating. read more

I have nothing but great things to say about this place. Lol Sarah was our server and was really funny. I will come back again because of her. read more
