    I like me some Denny's We got stuck in the desert for 3 hours with our truck and this was the only restaurant open new years eve. It was nice and warm inside, everything clean, including the bathroom. Our waiter was super funny and nice, same with the chef. I love night crew antics The morning/day crew needs to get it together because they did not prep the kitchen well with defrosted meats that were on the menu. So there were people waiting up to an hour for their takeout while we sat in the restaurant. Which I feel is unacceptable because they are a 24 hour establishment, get it together and take care of your night crew because they also work off tips and it's a disrespectful practice. Gave my kind waiter a fat tip and called it a day, after eating a fire burger with bacon, and this really good sauce that he recommended. Get the mozz sticks ! Thank you to the night crew, we see your hard work!!

    Oh, Denny's. Le sigh. Service was great. Prompt, cordial, and accommodating. The smokehouse brisket melt was pretty good. When I got halfway through my Cobb salad, my daughter said, "Wasn't that supposed to have eggs?" The salad even has "egg" in the name lol. It turns out the cooks didn't bother preparing any boiled eggs this evening. So we waited a while just for a boiled egg to be brought to me when we were very finished with dinner. No discount was offered. Kinda lame.

    We came here for a late night dinner, and it didn't seem too busy. The interior was nice, but the seating was a little tight. We got the Wild Alaskan Salmon, Oven-Baked Lasagna, and Bourbon Chicken Skillet. The food was flavorful and filling, but the bread was a bland. Service could use some work. Nobody came up to check if we need refill of water or anything else. I don't need them to come often, but once would be nice. We just pay at the counter.

    Good stuff

    Very nice staff. Clean and modern interior. I had one of their standard slam breakfasts. During my time there, I got to watch two guys refilling the 2 plush toy machines in the foyer. They were very meticulous about displaying the stuffed toys inside the glass to make them attractive. Is there a university that graduates people for this career?

    Chicken Fried Steak with Rustic Mashed Potatoes and apparently a side of broccoli.

    With this location, there is always something missing. This time, my Chicken Fried Steak was burned and missing my side of broccoli. Caution when going to this Denny's.

    Typical Denny's food. I am always happy with it and the app is really working. They always honour the discount applicable on the app.

    For $40 for two meals...you'd think they could have microwaved the bacon a few more seconds to crisp it up.

Just gotta drop a star because our waitress was a bit short and irritable, and the food was really nothing crazy amazing. Ended up having the shrimp and lobster fries appetizer which was pretty yummy, the shrimp on it is the best part. Even the kids loved the fries and ended up also splitting a chicken sandwich that was pretty basic, but cooked well and had a tasty bun. Wife and I split a pastrami burger, and gotta say the pastrami was really good, that was a great choice. It had a bunch of creamy cheese sauce on it as well and was gone in seconds. Ambiance was fine, place was really clean, and service was SUPER QUICK. One critique is when we asked for extra plates to split out food, the waitress told us they were out of plates because they used them all on the party that was in there. This was at max a party of 10, and the restaurant had to only have 10 more people in it total. Kinda weird to be out of plates at 20% capacity... she did end up getting us additional "trays" to use. Totally fine, just a bit odd. All in all, if you need some quick grub, stop in here on your way through. Price was pretty fair, 2 burgers, and an appetizer with ice teas for $50. Decent.

But fear not, my land-loving carnivores -- their burgers are legit too. The drinks? On point. I'm convinced they put magic (and possibly happiness) in their margaritas -- best in town, hands down. The vibe? Laid-back, spacious, and beachy enough that you'll forget the nearest coastline is hundreds of miles away. Close your eyes and you might just hear seagulls... or maybe that's just me after round two of margaritas. In short -- great food, great drinks, great vibes. If you leave here unhappy, you probably ordered water.

Rumor said that they had done some renovation to what was the old Victoria's Restaurant, but we encountered the same Paris courtyard motif that was the "trademark" of the old restaurant. We were greeted with a "sit wherever you want" by someone wearing a white t-shirt and paint spattered jeans. The menu was presented to us and it certainly was not impressive in style, with its typos and sentences that just ended incompletely (the cordon bleu apparently is "breaded with a creamy"). Our waitress, Diane, took our orders promptly, but the salad that comes with dinner took about 10 minutes to make it to our table; we were the only diners. I had the shrimp scampi, while my husband ordered the ribeye steak, medium rare. His steak came medium to medium well and the toast that came with my scampi was burned on one side and untouched on the other side. The scampi came with 5 plump shrimp, tails intact. Since it was served in a high sided dish, cutting off the tails was a challenge. The sauce on the scampi was tasty, though the lemon flavor was a surprise, hovering at the edge of being almost too much lemon. No dessert was offered, so I don't know if they have any at this time. The menu is close to what is being offered at Ale's, which is in the same parking lot, so the Fireside is going to have to work hard to make themselves special in some way. Diane handled our concerns professionally and she was the best part of our evening. It would be good to have the staff wear something to differentiate them from the customers, as we had no idea who were actually working and who were just friends sitting around. We'll be giving the Fireside another try in a couple of weeks to see if they've worked out some of the kinks. :) All in all, I think they have a HUGE battle ahead if they want to stay afloat and not lose their hotel guests to Ale's and to attract non-hotel clientele. Brainstorming a way to make them special will go a long way in achieving that goal.
