ONE OF SD's BEST DENNY'S! I've come to this Denny's several times after concerts at Soma or hockey games at Pechanga and i absolutely love it! It's quiet, accessible, and the service is very good! I love that the restaurant is intimate and open 24 hrs. The restrooms are pretty clean and so is waiting area. The dining room is about medium size with both booths and tables available. I love Denny's breakfast and dinner. My go-to's are the loaded omelette w/ a side of multigrain pancakes or a fried cheese melt (when it's available). This location is very festive and keeps up with the season's themes and exclusive menu items. Point Loma's Denny's is not far from the freeway and San Diego Sports Arena (Pechanga). It's got a decent amount of parking and is easy to find. read more

talk about midnight dining...everything was great until we saw the hidden fees with the extra topping on tops with the overcharging. we ordered from the $10 and under and somehow our waiter Vincent told us to download the app several times practically begging us saying that we're gonna get something for free. And honestly, I don't even care about getting anything for free. It's the principal so I did it for him and said it makes him look good. Something about some points for his work. Then he over charges me on my bill. Add an extra $20 onto the bill when I ordered off the $10 menu, tries to play it off noticed the receipt and I still didn't receive my hashbrowns. They basically stole from me. read more

Olga our server this busy Saturday was on top of everything and very nice. She filled our coffee as soon as it was empty and looked over the table each time to see if anything was getting low--like little vanilla creamers or all flavors of jelly for the toast--and she made sure we had plenty of everything before we even asked. I went with my mom, and as usual at this location we had a nice time. Everyone who works there is always positive and friendly, and the food comes fast and cooked in a competent way (e.g. hash browns golden with the right amount of crisp, over-easy eggs nice and not weirdly oily, fluffy pancakes) so it's a nice treat. Sometimes other Denny's locations serve up something a little sad and low quality....but never this location. It's become one of my happy places after three visits this year. read more

Don't eat here. Severely oversat restaurant with only one server. Host was also busser, runner and server assistant. Waited 45 minutes for drinks after order was taken. Food came to our table 1 hour after drinks. The kitchen although having two cooks managed their pace. The window was full of food that was dying and overcooking. Pancakes are dry, bacon was undercooked and drenched in oil. Sausage was burnt and unseasoned. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone. They sat three tables after my review, no menus provided. These guest sat for 20 minutes before the host took them a menu and cutlery, mind you no drink order of food taken yet. The management should be disappointed. A failure to the staff for overworking and not supporting them. A failure to the guest for quality of service and awful food. read more

Waiter was great that is what the stars are for. The food seams to be getting worse. Smaller portions, higher prices, and not cooked right. To make great eggs you need to blend them, c not beat them. When you blend them they are fluffier and look larger. The coffee was not hot or real fresh. But, the coffee was ok. The place is clean. I just wish the good looked something like the menu. I know the photographic tricks, just it just makes customers disappointed in what they get. Try to use closer to real pictures. Customers will be happier. And hot coffee. read more

0 stars if I could. I waited about 30 minutes for a simple burger and fries, only to find out my food had actually been sitting there ready for 20 minutes. There were only four tables occupied and everyone was waiting on their food, yet the server didn't bother to bring it out. When I finally asked, he told me to wait because he was serving a glass of Coke, completely unbothered by the fact that my meal was already cold. This was my first time ever walking out of a restaurant. Terrible service I wouldn't recommend anyone eating here until they change staff. read more

Pluses, food was great except for the hash browns that I paid extra for. Not sure why the cooks would put that on a plate and then the server put that plate down in front of me. Here's a photo, yes, I moved them around so I could try to find an edible part. I could see subsequent orders had regular looking hash browns so I don't know what the issue was. Service was great until THEY saw the hash browns not being touched. So after that I was basically ignored. read more

You usually walk into a Dennys and it's packed with a line out the door. Opposite feeling here I can now see why this Dennys on Point Loma only has 3 stars and there is a whole apartment complex next door it's in a great location. I came in with my three kids and my older daughter. When asked if we were ready to order I replied yes. I asked for the T-bone steak and eggs at 8:50 in the morning and waiter says "sorry we're out of t-bones, I then ask for a country fried steak sorry we don't have that. I then proceeded to ask do yall have ANY steak no sir we're out at the moment. Then I go and ask for French toast for my daughter simple right? Nope they don't have that either. Looks like corporate just needs to cut their losses with this location and it seems like the location is spiraling when you can't even order the product to ensure there is enough to go around. Waiter was nice but not very attentive dropped off the food and that's about the last time I seen him till it was time to pay my bill. read more

I love Denny's but I had a horrible time at this one. I stood for 10min before anyone even acknowledged me. The host kept looking at me but didn't greet me or said anything. Once we sat down I ordered a plain burger for my son and when she brought the food it had cheese on it. I let her know my son does not like cheese. She said "well in my understanding a plaid burger is just the meat and cheese" and "well I guess after he tries it and doesn't like it and can get him just the burger with no cheese". I let it go and my son was hungry so he just ate it like that. Plus my burger was really greasy. I will never be coming here again. I didn't feel welcomed at all. People that came in after me were greeted and helped to their table right away. ZERO STARTS read more

I don't know what it is but Denny's is steadily declining in all aspects and soon will not even be worth going there. The staff was either slow, lazy or just didn't know how to do their job. There were empty tables all over the place yet it took the server 10 minutes just to ask for our drinks, and he did not know what was out so when he came back 5-10 minutes later he only had one children drink and never brought the other or what we asked for a replacement. Food was cooked in good time but servers just left it sitting on the pick up counter cooling down. We ordered a skillet breakfast and the skillet was cold by the time it got to us, pitiful. Also, don't order a steak cause they only know one way to cook it, well done, I don't know why they even asked me. I think this might be my final visit to a Denny's. So long my old friend. read more

My boyfriend and I decided to have dinner at Denny's after learning about their Beyond Meat promotion. Since the Denny's closest to my house shut down, we opted for the Point Loma location. Apparently, lots of people were excited to try the Beyond Burger! While the diner was full of patrons, there were only three employees. Since there was only a waitress, cook, and busser, the food took slightly longer than expected, but WOW, the three of them efficiently manned the restaurant of 30+ customers. Our waitress, Dora, was very nice and thanked us for our patience. She went out of her way to ask questions to ensure the food was prepared the way we wanted it. The Beyond Burgers were delicious and a lot thicker than other restaurants. Even if you're not plant-based or have no desire to try meat alternatives, this Denny's still provides amazing service and a full menu of anything one could desire! read more

Saint James has quite a tasty happy hour menu…read more We frequented Saint James on a Monday and they were surprisingly empty. Their happy hour menu was quite diverse. The white wine of the day was Chardonnay and the cocktail of the day was an agave spritz. Our server was kind enough to tell us that the burgers did not come with fries, just in case we felt like the portions weren't sufficient. Our server was quick with our drinks and refills. The food took a bit longer to come out. *Agave Spritz: a fragrant take on a spritz. I actually appreciated how it was not overly carbonated nor sugary. This was a refreshing pairing with all the fried items we ordered. *Pommes Frites: classically crispy and fluffy. Came with a choice of ketchup or aioli. *Croquettes: came with five airy and crispy balls on a pool of mornay sauce. The menu mentioned an aioli, but my order did not come with any. Thankfully, the balls were flavorful themselves. The mornay sauce was on the thicker side and there was some clumpiness, but it added pleasant creaminess. *Burger Parisienne: my preferred burger of the two offered. The bordelaise was done well, and the red wine added a complex sweetness to the burger. The patty was thick and the toppings made the overall flavor similar to an In-N-Out burger. *Burger Americaine: a classic American burger that resembled In-N-Out, but with a thicker patty. Good thing I enjoy both. The vegetables were fresh, but I would have liked a bit more of the special sauce. *Little Gems: a rather acidic and simple dressing. The little gems lettuce was cleaned well and was crispy. The radish offered some crunch and the herbs were fragrant. I would have cut the herbs a bit more though. This was quite a satisfying happy hour experience, although nothing was exceptional besides the croquettes. I would like to return to try their breakfast options, and Saint James does offer some interesting dishes that others do not. The pricing was fair for the quality we received.

I came back to try a burger and their fries today, and they did not disappoint. I had the blue…read morecheese burger and chili cheese fries with a couple sides of ranch. No complaints here. The food was awesome. As always, these gentleman are always welcoming and accommodating. If you're only ordering malts, they ask if you'd like water while you wait. I came earlier today before I head out to a concert, and the ambiance is totally chill. This has become a face spot. Thanks guys! Cheers!

It might be my new go to malt place. Vibe was a classic diner, which was awesome, and it came with the hospitality as well. Jeff was super nice and accommodating, I would come back just for the good vibes alone!

The pancake was huge and had that soft, fluffy texture you want from a good diner-style meal. We also had a breakfast burrito with crispy hash browns that hit the spot, plus a plate with bacon, eggs, and hash browns that was satisfying and well cooked. The portions were definitely generous, although the prices felt very Coronado. Still, the food came out fresh and it was an easy, enjoyable brunch overall. One thing to know: on a busy day, if you're sitting outside, be prepared to get a few stares from people waiting for a table. Not the restaurant's fault, just part of the experience when a spot is popular. Nothing overly fancy, just good comfort food done well. Definitely a solid spot when you want a relaxed, no-fuss meal.

This is hands down some of the best diner food I've ever had! We had seen this unassuming place…read morefrom the front & it looks so cute and we wanted to come here anyway. Then I had a friend say that he actually met Bing Crosby here way back in the day so we were like "Okay, we gotta go now!" First of all the place is WAY bigger inside than it looks from the front and the decor is very comfortable and filled with tons of nostalgic pictures and photos of years gone by. A nostalgic, elegant vibe for a diner and you feel very comfortable inside. And the food is fantastic! (They also have wifi) I got the Corned Beef Hash & Eggs ($20.95) which has been a favorite since 1960! It is awesome corned beef served with 2 eggs, hash browns and your choice of toast or buttermilk pancakes. And those pancakes are some of the best tasting pancakes I've had - so delicious! ...and the corned beef, eggs over easy and hash browns were perfectly cooked and seasoned and it was an amazing breakfast! My sweetheart got Harry's famous Tuna Melt ($17.95) which is tuna salad with tomato, melted cheddar cheese served on grilled sourdough (add avocado for $2) and your choice of fries or fruit. She is a huge fan of tuna melts and she absolutely loved this one! It's good to see that Harry's is still doing it right - We will definitely be back.

Upon entering, we were directed to seat ourselves by the bus boy so as we proceeded. The server abruptly stopped us in our tracks and kind of rudely told us that he'd be with us and to wait. As he approached to seat us I informed him that the bus boy told us to seat ourselves and the server half jokingly asked who so I pointed to him. As for the food, we ordered sandwiches and fries. I got the turkey and brie sandwich with grilled onions and it was real carved turkey (so good). Unfortunately, the fries were soggy and not crispy and fresh. BFF had the Cubano sandwich and it was a good size but they put a thick piece of ham steak on it along with shredded pork that wasn't seasoned. He claims his fries were good and fresh. The ambience is cute, very clean and plenty of seating indoors and out for such a small restaurant. Prices are reasonable, too. Had it not been for the server rubbing me the wrong way upon entering as well as the soggy fries, I would have given this place 5 stars.

We ordered the biscuits and gravy, fruit cup, orange juice, and country burger Benedict. My biscuits and gravy were 6.50 and phenomenal! The gravy was delicious and a well made biscuit. The fruit was gross, half was good and half was old. The orange juice was pretty good too but 5 dollars for a glass of orange juice is ridiculous. The country burger Benedict was cooked beautifully but the meat was so bland. Not a speck of seasonings, which was a bummer because everything else was so good on it! Overall service was great, ambiance was meh, and food was good but also overpriced. We will probably eat here again but it won't be a first choice.
