Came here for breakfast around 6 or 7am. Okay food for okay prices. I ordered a T-bone steak medium but came well done. Well, considering it's Denny's, I didn't really expect much. Quality: 6/10. Services: 7/10. Value: 6.5/10. Overall: 6.5/10 (not an average) read more

Came here for breakfast and the food itself is horrible. Feels like you're eating rubber - tourists in the city, if your hotel is offering free breakfast - EAT THERE it will probably taste more like food than plastic. The service however was really good, me and my boyfriend had a coupon and even though we were supposed to print it out our server still gave us the discount which was very nice of him. We paid around 40$ including a tip definitely not worth it because they're literally serving grub. read more

I had a really good experience eating there with my amazing server khan. He made the overall eating expeirence eating there because of the amazing treatment I got from my server. 10/10 eating experience read more

I recently visited America's northern neighbor. I'm somewhat of a picky eater and I don't like ethnic food. With that in mind, I went to a restaurant in Canada that served American food. I ordered chicken fingers with broccoli and rice. It was so-so, nothing to write home about. The meal was slightly overpriced ($15). As I ate, I watched the pathetic Blue Jays lose yet another game. read more

Went here a few times and it was okay. Last time I went I was asked to leave without any explanation. I was sitting in a booth playing a game on my phone when a server came over and told me they were not comfortable serving me and asked me to leave. It was late and I had just come from a bar but I was sitting not making any noise or looking around.. just playing a game on my phone. I guess they didn't like how I looked? Although I'm sure I wasn't the only one that came from a bar. I left without causing a fuss and went to a restaurant nearby that had no issue serving me. I called the next day to notify a manager about what happened and have not and never will go back. read more

Went here for my birthday and got a free meal. The portions are big. Service was good and friendly. It can be pricey depending on what you get. I like the fact that it's 24 hours. I would go back. read more

The food was doing a a good a job of being food but that's where it ends. I honestly would not order food here again however it was a lot of fun making fun of how bad the food was. The eggs we're cold, the French toast soggy and they didn't even have an option for how we wanted out eggs. The only redeeming quality was the fact that you could get hasbrowns or house fries and how cheap the food was. Anyways go here for the experience. read more

We remember liking Denny's for the portion and value in the past. Today, we ventured downtown with our 2 kids and realized that it ia no longer the case. The breakfasts are still big portions, but the price has definitely gone up and the quality was just slightly better than an Ikea breakfast. Our waitress wasn't bad, but we found that the dishes lacked flavour, mainly all carbs. The bacon and sausages are soso, eggs were not fluffy and had no taste. The pancakes were actually good though; very fluffy and soft. That was the best part of the meal. We ordered a kids meal for our 3 year old. The breakfast itself was well priced and almost as big as the adult portion, so it was better value for 1/2 the price, but didn't include a drink, which I was surprised about because most places have a drink included. read more

good service, good food. had a pleasant time .Varun gave us everything on time . Appreciate his service !

I so desperately want to like Denny's as I looove breakfast food but my most recent visit to their Dundas location really came up short. Don't get me wrong, staff were friendly and professional and it helped having a coupon for a discount off my meal but the food was lacking. I opted for the bacon, eggs and potato hash. The bacon was super thin and the potato hash burned on the outside but almost undercooked inside. Frankly I've picked up higher quality bacon from the grocery store. Some thoughts on improving the customer experience: 1) Raise prices. I get it, they are trying to compete in an area full of breakfast and lunch time specials. But we're in the heart of downtown. People expect a certain level of quality and will pay more for it. 2) The chefs appear to be cooking on a high heat to speed up service. Always high heat to create flavour but gentle heat to cook through. Forget the coupons. Improve the quality of the food and the people will come. read more

Great size of a meal, friendly staff but they need to fine tune their paces. Sitting at the bar give you a bird eye view on what's happening behind the counter and in the kitchen! read more

Exactly what you'd expect from a Denny's! We went on a week day so it wasn't busy or anything. We got immediate service and they were super friendly and fast with us. We went on my birthday which meant I got a free breakfast. It was the Original Slam or something like that. Being a vegetarian they let me substitute the meat options for vegetarian options, which was awesome! read more

I've had Denny's breakfast and i highly suggest that is the ONLY thing you have from here. Order a curry chicken rice bowl and it came out as curry paste (barely) over this huge bowl of over cooked rice. I told them i didn't like it and I decided to get the Nachos (How hard could nachos be right?) and it smelt "off" like something in the dish had gone bad. I'm excited had KD better than what I ate today. Brb, having food poisoning.... read more

Steak and eggs at anytime of the day is a dream come true especially when you get it from Denny's. I must say my T-bone steak was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing just the way I like. My eggs on the other hand they weren't they I ordered them but no fuss. Their home fires are the bomb. The staff at this location are phenomenal very friendly and I will definitely come back for my steak breakfast again. Clean dinner was very impressed with that. read more

When I heard that a new Denny's location opened up right near my friend's apartment, we had to give it a try - have many great memories getting full at many of their American locations. ATMOSPHERE/SERVICE: This location is open 24 hours a day, which makes it a perfect spot for some late night grub. Even at the late hour (around 12am), the surprisingly large and clean restaurant was still fully staffed. I was quite impressed with our waitress Lina's personable and efficient customer service. Relatedly, I didn't realize there were at least 10+ methods of preparing an egg until our waitress recited it for us, two times! FOOD: I went with the classic Grand Slam breakfast (2 sausages, 2 pieces of bacon, scrambled eggs, and hash browns). The eggs were a bit on the dry side for my taste, as I opted not to include additional cheese/hot sauce as offered as an option. The sausages were plump and juicy, the bacon crisp but not burnt...the hash browns were actually the best I've had in a while, fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside mmm. SUMMARY: For a late night snack, you can't beat all-day breakfast at Denny's. Though our visit was during a less busy time of the day, seems service here is actually pretty efficient and attentive too. read more

I'm on a 4 star role! This place is open 24 hours...hello new after bar downtown eatery. I stumbled across this place last week. The last time I was in a Dennys was in the US...that was years ago. I stopped off for a light snacks...and ended up having a burger which I have to say was damn good. The chocolate shake is epic and is a meal in itself. Peanut butter cup pancakes...what the wha?!! They looked amazing but alas I could not...which will mean I have to return! Service was fine but it was fairly quiet. Prices are reasonable. The diner was on the chilly side bit very clean. read more

I am a Denny's fan but this one has been the worse experience ever. Food was bland and despite ordering a well cooked egg it came runny, I asked for it to be properly cooked and when it came back it was fine but the rest of the plate was cold, not to mention it took forever to get the food in the first place. Service was almost non existent and the server would disappear for long times as well despite the place not being busy. read more

I came here on a Tuesday morning at 11am. I guess you can't expect much from 24hour because the staff are understandably & usually more tired than other places. Food was great & I 100% recommend their hash browns. However the service ? Odd. I'm assuming our server was new because he was super awkward & never cracked a smile to us, not once. My cousin asked to upgrade his meal to come with French toast, the server said okay but 10 minutes later came back and asked if a 5$ charge was okay for the French toast upgrade. Not a horrible thing, but this could have been said during the order taking because my cousin was disappointed & looked forward to having French toast. The most odd thing that happened with our server was that when we were paying (separate bills), my boyfriend's bill was $34.95, he gave the server a 50$ bill. The server then proceeded to look at the bill and ask how much my boyfriend wanted back? We all looked at the server confused by his question because I am waitress myself, and I would NEVER assume my tip or ask a customer how much change they want back. It's rude & confronting. When my boyfriend responded "may I have everything back & we'll figure out the tip from there" the waiter then proceeded to say "well you gave me 50$ & the bill is 34.95$" ...we know how much the bill was. He didn't have to repeat it. It was a VERY awkward situation, my boyfriend ended up just asking for 10$ back after being put on the spot. I think this situation shows lack of training & common sense in their employees. I would only come back if I'm desperate for food since it's a 24 hour place. read more

I hoped this would be my Toronto's equivalent of the Montreal's 24/7 Dunn's for a late night meal... but it will not... Place was almost empty, but food took too long to come and was not even exactly what I ordered (the waiter acknowledged right away and returned the plate to the kitchen...why didn't he notice himself before bringing the plate?... and 5 minutes more to wait to have half my plate replaced, while the other half cooled down...). Bland but likely safe food. read more

I went here for the birthday deal (free grand slam) in the morning. I was seated promptly and the waitress came within 5 minutes to ask if I need a drink. I had some water and then informed her that I was just here for the birthday deal. She asked for some government id to verify and apologized for the inconvenience and said it was protocol. She was really nice and helpful throughout, unfortunately I didn't get her name. Anyways, normally you get the traditional grand slam but I explained that I couldn't have meat so she offered to ask and see if she could replace the bacon and sausage with something else. Luckily she was able to and I got to replace it with hash browns and an english muffin plus the regular pancakes and eggs. It tasted great and was super filling! The service was fast and the food was perfectly cooked! They gave big portions and I couldn't have been more satisfied. Just have some money extra for a good tip because the waiters/waitresses deserve it. It was a great start to my birthday so thank you Denny's! read more

Had an awesome time at Dennys yesterday. Their menu is pretty extensive but always includes new limited edition items like the independence day grand slam which was absolutely delicious. This is the kind of place where everyone in your party will find something they like in the menu. Our server was on the ball and was super nice and efficient. All of us really enjoyed our meals and we were impressed that food made at midnight didn't taste awful or look less than appetizing. I never really ventured into Dennys before but I most certainly will come back and be a loyal customer!! I love their pancakes! read more

This place is amazing any time of the day if you are looking to have breakfast! Denny's has a clean environment, the service is fast, and there is lots to choose from.

Reviewed Dish: Fish & Chips, Hot Turkey Dipper (Sandwich), Double Cheese Burger Reviewed during: Fri Lunch time Service Speed: 3.5 / 5 Cooking speed: 3.5 / 5 Food Quality: 3.5 / 5 Food Quantity: 2 / 5 Price: 3 / 5 Cleanness: / 5 Repeat: No The speed was not too bad considering it was a Fri lunch during shopping season. We tried a few dishes in the same sitting, the Double Cheese Burger is decent, but only a very small amount of hash brown came with the dish. It's the same with the Hot Turkey Dipper, there's only a little of stuffing as well. The Fish and chip got a decent amount of fries, and the fish is the right portion, the crust is quite crispy. After the meal, we looked at other tables, they easily got more than double amount of hashbrown & stuffing! It is unfortunate the quality is not consistent. read more

Sorry to burst your bubble Dawn G but this location just opened up maybe a week or two the most. Service is ok, we lucked out and got a decent server. Food is reasonable in terms of price but what you get is another story. You get what you pay for. The food wasn't filling, I left still hungry. I had the cinnamon pancakes, I should have gotten the grand slam which for $3 more would have filled me. I'd avoid the T-Bone steak for now, as someone else mentioned it wasn't very good. First it was ordered medium well but arrived rare, it was sent back but then became well done. Pot Roast looked good but the portion was tiny. Apple Caramel dessert was good. read more

Being that it's my first time trying Denny's, I must say I'm dissatisfied. As we sat down to our table, waitress took 15 mins to even say hello to us. I ordered steak omelet and it came with Hashbrown. Hashbrown was sloppy, steak omelette was below average taste wise. Now my aunt also ordered the sausage skillet, it had absolutely NO taste! read more

Wonderful service! I came here with my friends because I got a 20% off promo coupon from a brand ambassador. If you ever see one of those poor employees in the bacon strip costume, you better run and grab a few of those coupons. SERVICE: It was a little slow but I didn't mind because I wasn't in a rush and had time to catch up with friends. The staff even provided complementary snacks (onion rings + mozzarella sticks) to compensate for the long wait which was so generous of them. The staff were incredibly friendly, always making sure we were doing fine without being annoying. ATMOSPHERE: Good place to hang with friends. Generally doesn't get too loud, the place is decent in terms of cleanliness and the tables are roomy. FOOD/PRICE: Because I had the coupon, my meal was worth it. For 3 people, our bill came out to under $30 and we were more than satisfied. We each got pancakes, hash browns, eggs and bacon/sausage. Try the strawberry & cream pancakes!! read more

I lost my feet from diabetes cause i would go to dennys every night and drink a cool refreshing pint of maple syrup. They told me hey thats delicious and you shouldnt do that. I went every night for 3 years as addiction slowly consumed me. eventually they got me on a steady diet of cigarettes so i would stop eating at this damned restaurant. this place is truly the embodiment of evil but then again im just sitting in a different dennys right now. read more

We came here today and we had a great breakfast. Omelette was awesome and the staff very polite and friendly I would highly recommend this place :) read more

A friend and I were looking for a late-night meal near Eaton Centre last weekend, and stopped in at the 24-hour Denny's at Dundas + Bay. It wasn't too busy, so service was pretty quick. The restaurant is what you would expect, bright and clean, but nothing special inside. As for food, I had the Super Bird sandwich, turkey breast with melted Swiss cheese and bacon on grilled sourdough bread with a side of seasoned fries and a strawberry milkshake. The sandwich was pretty good, the fries were okay but not much different than regular fries, the milkshake was good too. I think my total was about $18 (I wasn't the one paying this time). Overall no surprises, good enough for a late meal and I have previously been here for a decent breakfast, but nothing to stand out from other similar restaurants. I probably would not go downtown just to eat there, but I'm sure I'll go back sometime when I'm around the area. read more

Review is borderline 3.5 stars. Came here around 3:30am on a Saturday morning after partying the night before. Decided to grab a quick bite before heading back to our hotel to sleep. I've only been to one other Denny's which was in the US and I didn't understand the hype. So when the Toronto location opened, I never visited. However, thank goodness for 24/7 restaurants and midnight munchies! I do recall our waitress being super friendly and the food was alright. I don't know how I came to ordering the hearty hot skillet breakfast/dish ($11.49) of some sort with hash browns, onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, eggs and a sausage.. but I did! The whole dish was a tad too greasy but very hot and comforting despite the sausage being too salty as well. I came here with 4 others and I remember them telling me their food tasted good but I guess I'll have to update this review in a clearer state of mind, lol. Overall, it was a good experience for a 24/7 restaurant. Quick, friendly and not too busy. PS- I apologize for only having a snapchat pic to post of my food! And I believe that's a Philly cheese steak omelette and hash browns across from me :) read more

Service was friendly and food exceeded expectations. They seem to keep an close eye for quality even in details: we ordered T-bone steak and the medium-rare steak was cooked just right; grapes in the sides for the Cali club sandwich were firm and the cherry tomatoes in the Kobb salad were ripened to the perfect sweetness. Loved it, will definitely go back. read more

Came back today for another Original Grand Slam because of their anniversary promotion. The bacon and sausage were cooked from frozen so there was no problem there but the eggs were disappointing. I ordered my eggs scrambled this time instead of poached and they came out tough and cold. The pancakes were alright - not the fluffiest but not a bad texture either. read more

Denny's - Original grand slam - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Generally, I love Denny's! In this review I DO NOT love Denny's! I have been to Denny's all over North America and this one left me wanting much more. I had a Coke and the All-American Slam. Toast was good, hash browns were soggy and under-browned, scrambled eggs were browned. Sausage was okay and bacon was perfectly done. Boyfriend had the avocado bacon burger. He said it was underwhelming and lacking in flavour. I love me some Denny's but this location has to step up its game. Denny's could be so much more than a 2 star! read more

Pleasantly surprised! I always thought that Denny's would be a sketchy diner joint, but this is actually nice! Me and my friends went there at about 12:30 am, we were seated quickly. The wait staff were so kind and our food did not take long at all! I recommend this location! I had an Oreo shake (which was amazing) and the Salted Caramel Banana pancakes with hashbrowns, sausage and scrambled eggs, so good!!! read more

Here's the thing - the food here is mediocre and has a certain taste that I can't understand. They are always trying new food combinations but it always feels kind of processed no matter what you order. BUT, I look forward to coming here regularly because of the staff. I've only been here late night - think from 11pm to 6am. Every time I can't get over how accommodating, friendly, and warm the staff are, even when it's busy and the place is packed. Their service level is what I might expect at a much nicer place, and I'm always pleased even going in now with the high expectations that their staff are great. If I come just with a laptop for a couple hours and order something small they treat me with just as much regard as when I come and order a large meal. (They do sometimes take a while to seat people lately at night I've noticed even when they aren't full, but in general their excellence makes up for it.) Also, I like the atmosphere. You get people from all walks of life late night and they play really basic but kind of fun music which is extra loud in the bathroom and it just feels like going out for a fun night with friends, even if it's just a Tuesday night. read more

Came here on a Sunday morning around 7:30am and there was a table or two dining. Service was welcoming, quick, and attentive. Coffee was okay and you get free refills. I got the All-American Slam. The bacon was crispy and the eggs were scrambled well. Their hash brown wasn't crispy enough, or maybe this is just how it is with this style of hashbrown - can't say I am a fan of it, I much prefer Eggspectation potatos or Mcdonald's hashbrowns. My friend said her omelette was delicious and can't wait to come back! read more

I've been here with my kids and they enjoy their cheeseburgers and hamburgers. But they really love their dessert

I have been to this Denny's twice. Once today, and once last Sunday. What a difference a week makes. Both times I went on Sunday morning. Last week the place was "busy" and I sat the bar since I was by myself and prefer to watch something on the TV, sports or CP24. They had a manager behind the counter who was in charge of training, and it was obvious because she knew what she was doing and her name tag stated it as well. So my experience was alright, not amazing but alright.Enough to make me come back. Well one week later (today), I went back. Same time in the morning and it wasn't that busy at all. Once again I sat at the bar. There are 2 televisions, one at either end. The one closer to me, had nothing on the screen, it may as well been turned off since there was nothing on it, the other tv was showing some random soccer game from somewhere in the middle east. So as I sat there at the bar with my menu, I wasn't greeted by anyone. Wasn't even acknowledged. Not even a minute later, as I'm staring at the menu a manager approached me with a bowl of food that clearly I did not order and then tried to pass it off to someone else before getting to the other end of the bar and asking a server where it should go. That was the only contact I had with anyone besides the person who sat me. As I sat there with my menu closed in front me of waiting to be served or even spoken to, I had the pleasure of listening to a group of servers staring at a binder complaining about their sections. So they called over Joe, who was the manager behind the counter and then began giving Joe a hard time about their sections, tables or lack there of. Joe did his best to "look at it", all this going on while I continued to pat my hands on the bar, make eye contact with someone who worked there and at least try to get some service. None of that worked and since no one seemed to know I was there, I stood up, grabbed my jacket and walked out. As I walked by the host stand where about 4 servers were standing around, I could hear them giggling to themselves because like me, they also knew this place was a joke and so is their service. Better luck next time Joe, oh wait forget it, I wont go back. I went to Milestones instead where I was given great service and able to watch relevant things on their tv's at the bar. read more

This Denny's, the first in downtown Toronto, opened a few months ago in a newly-refurbished building, more than a year after it was announced. I've come here a few times because I live in the area and it makes sense for a convenient sit-down breakfast or brunch on the weekend. It's rarely jam-packed, but usually there's an even mix of locals and tourists (not shocking since it's very close to the intercity bus terminal and the Eaton Centre). Pros: Lots of variety, generally good quality, and some of the chain's limited-time offers are worth trying (recent faves include the Double Berry Pancakes and the Cali Avocado Skillet). A few decent healthy options ("healthy" always being relative when it comes to diners) though these tend to be a bit more expensive. Modern-looking location and good atmosphere overall. Cons: Service can be slow at times, but it has been getting better since it opened. Prices are kind of high compared to the other breakfast chains in the area, especially if you're just getting a basic breakfast (there is no value menu as there is at Denny's in the U.S.) - though this may just be due to the prime downtown location. read more

Great service. We showed up very early in the morning and the servers had no problem accommodating us. Very pleased with their patience and attitude. read more
