I consider myself a true food connoisseur, so telling people I eat at Denny's is almost like telling them Taco Bell is authentic Mexican food. And no disrespect to Taco Bell! But I have to give credit where credit is due: the Denny's on Sunrise is amazing. I come here for breakfast regularly, and it's not just the food that keeps bringing me back--it's the people. Carrie, Stephen, Scott, the managers, and the entire supporting cast make me feel genuinely welcome every time I walk through the door. The service is consistently excellent, everyone treats me wonderfully, and the food is always fresh and good. And here's my little insider secret: ask for fresh-cracked eggs! Skip the pre-blended eggs and get the real thing. Trust me--you'll be one happy camper. Great food is important, but great people and great service are what turn customers into regulars. That's exactly what this crew has done for me. Thank you to the entire team at Denny's on Sunrise for always taking such great care of me. You guys are amazing! read more

The food and especially the staff are excellent. They all work hard and they are always on top of things.

I love this place! Staff is friendly and the manager Raylene is always stopping by to say hi and treats everyone like family.

Came in with my kid for a late breakfast. They have the pumpkin pecan pancakes that are back. These are so good. This Denny's is very close to my office. I can't believe I don't come here that much. I certainly will now. The pancakes were fluffy and had the perfect pecan /pumkin ratio. The syrup on top was thick , almost like a butter, brown sugar syrup. I asked the waitress if she could add a dollop of whipped cream. Yup , that did it for me, I was hooked ! Had it with my coffee , You can't go wrong here, if your in the mood for pancakes ! read more

3 1/2 out of five stars. As I mentioned in my last review, I only live like five minutes away from this restaurant, so I do come in quite often. You can eat as healthy or as "over-the-top" as you like. One of my favorite items on the menu is the fit slam. Scrambled egg whites with fresh spinach and grape tomatoes, two slices of turkey bacon, as well as toast, or an English muffin, and fresh fruit. For a healthy breakfast, it's delicious! I came in at six this morning, and, As always, The place was spotless, and the people were friendly and helpful. I went for another item that I get often, the " everyday value slam.". For only $6.99, you get Two eggs, your choice of two bacon or two sausage, (I always get one of each,), and your choice of two pancakes, two slices of French toast, or biscuits and gravy. It always hits the spot just right. I usually get the pancakes, because I love Denny's pancakes, but this time I decided to try the French toast. Unfortunately, this time the meal was not as successful. The eggs were done just right, with a good amount of yolk, the sausage was very good, and the bacon was crispy, But, I was definitely not a fan of the French toast. It was a good quality brioche that they used, but they either put too much butter, or too much oil on the griddle. The French toast tasted greasy. It was a good quality French toast, I just couldn't get past the greasiness of it. I didn't take a picture because I didn't think I was going to have this issue. I will keep coming back. I like a lot of things on the menu here, and I love Denny's pancakes. Just from now on, I will stay away from the French toast. Thanks read more

The food is just Denny's. The prices are extremely too for Denny's. It's absolutely ridiculous. But Denny's is always just Denny's. It's been around forever and I'm sure I'll go again not too much to say Denny's is Denny's. read more

This is the best Denny's we've ever been to. Why? Exceptional customer service. Every Denny's that my family and I have ever dined in at was always ever lacking in customer service but I had a birthday meal I wanted to redeem so decided to try this location out. We are so happy that we did because this Denny's location was awesome. Right away, we were welcomed in by a friendly staff member who seated my husband, infant daughter, and I immediately. Another staff member offered us beverages, brought them for us, then assured us our server would be with us shortly. Within the time we were checking out the menu, our very upbeat server walked by to let us know she would get to us as soon as she could (she had several other tables she was tending to) and she floated by from table to table, very upbeat and never with hands empty. She got back to us pretty quickly, greeting us, and introducing herself as Kerri. She took our orders and we got our coffees topped off. Each time our coffee cups were refilled, it was always hot and fresh! The manager brought our food to us while Kerri tended to her many other tables who I noticed seemed to be some people she was familiar with, which told me she had plenty of regulars. Of course she did--her customer service skills were great! The manager, too, was incredibly efficient. It's such a breath of fresh air to see a restaurant manager actually helping out around the restaurant and checking in on tables. He was pre-bussing, refilling drinks, holding doors open for guests, and telling the ones exiting to have a good day. It was clear to us that he was always on top of things. Overall, I noticed everyone helped each other out at this Denny's. No one was ever just standing around twiddling their thumbs. Dishes and scraps were picked up right away as well! We loved that our coffee cups were never empty, the restaurant was very clean, food was delicious and brought out quickly, and everyone was so friendly. We were so happy with the impeccable customer service we experienced this morning! We will absolutely return time and time again to this location. read more

This is a really cool little cafe the perfect spot to spend your morning. I especially love going there to eat their amazing pancakes with cream and strawberries! The service is excellent, and the waiters are polite. read more

We go to our Denny's on Fridays. My best friend and I enjoy a great meal each time we go. Whether we try one of their new specials or one of our favorites. But what makes our time there the most special is the staff. Even if they are busy they take the time to say hi and ask how we are. That extra little time and smile goes a long way with us. It is so much fun to walk in to Denny's and every staff member has a smile and says hi! read more

Best Denny's around. I have been to a bunch of Denny's in the Sacramento area and this one on Sunrise and HWY 50 is the BEST. I love how it is decorated for every season and holiday. The food is always fast and very good. If something is not right the staff makes it right with no attitude. Can't beat the prices. My favorite thing is the French toast combo which tastes amazing like a funnel cake at the state fair. Best French toast around. Also I love their BLT sandwiches that I order without them being on the menu. The only thing I would change is their NEW mozzarella sticks are super huge and gross. Way too rich and not good. Go back to normal mozzarella sticks please! Besides that amazing food and always good service here! read more

Service was amazing! Kerri is always friendly and stays on top of refills and everything! Food was good, cooked as ordered. My daughter is a n autistic adult and can be "picky" you're always treated with kindness and respect, and her food came out exactly the way she wanted it. We will definitely be back! read more

Had to recognize Raylene at the Sunrise Denny's. She is the glue that holds the whole place together. She constantly works more than an 8-hour shift, comes in on her days off when needed. The employees respect her because she does whatever needs to be done, including mopping the floor, bussing the dishes, maintaining the inventory, helping the cooks, waiting on customers, and maintaining all the shift records for all the workers. On top of all this, she decorates the restaurant for every holiday. She neglects herself for the good of her company; she deserves a very loud THANK YOU from management for going above and beyond the call of duty, every business needs a Raylene. read more

Was on my way to Lake Tahoe when we got hungry late-night driving! We decided to stop at a Denny's, near the freeway exit.

WORST DENNYS EVERR!!! I don't get how it almost takes 2 hours to make a milkshake and cut a piece of pie up ??????? Worst service ever . Save ur money and go some place else . read more

Never got our waters refilled over the hour and a half. My burrito was relatively dry and made me nauseous, but they offered to replace it. I ordered The berry stuffed french toast as a replacement, then recieved plain french toast. The rest of the food was delicious and the place was clean. Overall not super satisfied. read more

I go here once a week or so for breakfast. This dennys is always clean, the servers are awesome people, and the food is always correct, hot, and good! Best Dennys around!! read more

This has been our go to Dennys for years. The other night our server Lindsey W. was rude. She never checked on us to see how things are going or if we needed anything. We needed refills and set our cups at the edge of the table for about 15 minutes with no acknowledgment. We had to wave down another server to get refills and we complained to him about her service. We were ignored throughout our dining experience. Management needs to review this post so that they can make sure that their customers our treated with dignity and respect! read more

I'm only ever here for the pancakes. Cant go wrong! The staff is great, chill environment... can't complain! read more

Nice clean and friendly atmosphere. Our waitress was great. The food was quick and the hashbrowns were perfect. I was craving breakfast after a night put. Well I like breakfast anytime. Restrooms clean. Coffee was m'mmm ok but I guess I shouldn't have expected High end at 3am. I will say I was offered flavored creamer but received half and half. But that was my only bad thing from the visit. read more

After coming home late from work, I was hungry and decided to order for delivery from Denny's since some other restaurants were closing for the night. I ordered the BBQ bacon chicken sandwich with onion rings. I had ordered a similar meal for lunch with friends at a different restaurant a couple of months ago, and that wasn't very good. Maybe that's the reason why I especially appreciated how good the one I ordered from Denny's was. The chicken was seasoned well, bacon was the right amount of crispness, with the right amount of sauce and veggies. The onion rings were delicious (the other restaurant didn't even peel the onions completely). I don't usually think to eat at Denny's or order from them based on past bad experiences from a couple of decades ago. But, the food I've had there in the last 10 years has been much better, and I really enjoyed what I ordered last night. read more

I have not one complaint about this location. The staff are always helpful and friendly and our food is always served hot and delicious! read more

The food is very consistent here. The servers are friendly and attentive, even when it's crowded . how are shining star server? Chanae made it an event rather than just a quick meal if you're lucky enough to have Jenise review, it will be an event rather than just a nice meal . read more

Denny's is usually reliable and today's first time visit to this location worked out well. With covid shutdowns, take home orders need to work smoothly. Using the online ordering, it was simple to pick out my breakfast. Supreme Skillet without peppers is my favorite. It is usually on a sizzling skillet when ordering to eat in. Pleasantly surprised that the To Go order in a plastic container keep the food hot. Season fruit cup was separated in the carrying bag so it did not heat up. Indoor seating in non-covid shutdown times is good with large outdoor covering available when eat in is allowed. Right on Sunrise, it is easy to get to this location and the parking is pretty good. read more

Food was great and Chanae was friendly and professional. thank you for the great service :)

I was greeted immediately and seated right away and offered a beverage by the hostess. Daniel was my server and a very good one at that. He deftly offered toppings for my egg as he completed my order. He was professional and offered the quality of service that I would expect in a high end restaurant. The food was good - I got one of the Senior breakfast options - but the scrambled egg was especially creamy and delicious. Denny's has been a California mainstay for many decades. It's not a place I frequent but when I go, my expectations are usually met. This particular location was large and very clean in appearance. The service quality was excellent and being able to get a discount with my AARP card paid for the cheese I added to my egg! It's comfort food in familiar surroundings at an average price for these days. Service is quick. Food is good. What's not to like? read more

this place is so slow it's ridiculous 30 min wait for food and it's empty not coming back here ever

Very quick service and delicious food! Enjoyed seeing the employees laughing and singing along to music playing on their bluetooth jukebox. read more

The way ALL the servers treat their guests is above and beyond the norm. I watched my server greet everybody and take the time to listen. There's another server sitting next to a gentleman talking/listening to a guest while she rolls silverware in a napkin. The hostess came and sat with an elderly couple and listened to them and it was all genuine. This Dennys would be the place I'd want my elderly parents to come for food, because they treated everybody with kindness. Thank you Kerri and the rest of the staff for having heart for people. read more

They had a guest net connection, manager killed it!!!

I've only ordered to go so far but they consistently do a great job. The breakfast we order to go is always so good, and quick service! Highly recommend this location of Denny's :) read more

It's a very clean restaurant. It looks like the owners have taken care to make sure it's not the gross diner that we've all been to where there's at least three bodily substances on the floor in the bathroom. The service was dedicated and polite and friendly. The food came very fast and it's nothing new if you've been to Denny's before, but it's good. They have a cook who knows what they're doing. It's got the convenience and comfort that we all hope to have when we go to a diner. read more

Our server Tara went above and beyond with our food service. She provided great recommendations and the best hospitality ever.

I always come in and I never get greeted and I always have to ask someone after 15 minutes of waiting and asking if I can get seated, they always pass by or look at me and don't say anything. Then while I was waiting, a group of people were waiting and they got greeted a good morning how we doing and got sat down right away, they were also asked for drinks on the spot and then another server or host went up to them and asked them as well while sitting right next to them and not being asked yet. We waited a while to order our food even though we already knew what we all wanted. The other table ordered before us even after sitting after us. read more
