    Food was good I really enjoyed my chicken strips but I did get charged for chips and salsa I didn't order I noticed after I left .... But food was good just look at your receipts before paying .

    Father's Day at Denny's was THE perfect way to start the day with our dad. My parents love coming here in the morning (only bc they live closer than I do). Every time I go with them I see why this is their favorite location. We are always greeted with smiles and friendly staff, they even know my parents and have a preferd table. Being here really felt comfortable, like being somewhere I can be me, enjoying breakfast with my family without feeling judged for having a family conversation because it feels very homie inside. Our table is always full of pancakes, french toast, fruit, eggs, bacon, coffee and coffee. This Denny's never fails us!

    Is Dennys really ihops little cousin in the 24 hour breakfast all day realm? I just heard that in some TikTok reel earlier today. Anyway, I haven't been here in YEARS I'm talking since way before the pandemic probably. the girlie wanted to go cus she likes cheap basic shit Anyway, it wasn't too shabby. It was surprisingly cheap which is cool cus most low end / casual or EVEN straight fast food restaurants are insanely over priced and no longer affordable. Oh and our server this afternoon was lovely. She provided really good service and was very cool and nice after our pancakes came out cold originally. She had them fire up some freshies and always kept my coffee mug hot and filled up. It's the little things ya know ?

    Grand Slam!

    Classic American breakfast! I love a quick run to Denny's when I'm craving breakfast any time of the day. The service was quick and friendly, the inside was nice and clean!

    Had breakfast at this location today. I was pleasantly surprised by the specials menu. It had several breakfasts from $5.99 to $9.99 with eggs, bacon, toast and depending on which price point you can get French toast or pancakes, hash browns. Very nice! Food came out a tad slow but was good. Service could have been more attentive for sure but it wasn't bad. The restaurant itself was very clean and organized. Comfortable seating and table or booths. I would definitely come to this spot again. Parking lot is good size.

    It was probably really good back then?

    Truly, choose elsewhere. Place has nostalgic decor. It's clean. That said, the Lead or counter man who rang me up looked annoyed and completely put out that I approached counter to acquire forgotten mayonnaise; in attempt to eat burger while still warm. I'd gone to counter since poor server was a party of one in a full dining room; doing his very best. Horrible vibe for the working class. The burger was so greasy the pool of gelatinous liquid was disturbing and rendered it inedible. I thought I had subbed fries for fruit but was charged $1.99 for the weirdest fruit side ever. In their effort to stretch their dollar; strawberry sliced aggressively to cover more real estate. Odd parking lot next to a questionable motel. Nothing redeeming.

    Lam the waitress is a gem. Great at conflict management and very charming. She brings an old school diner and sharp wit. This Denny's is better than most and Lam's a real one.

    Everyone was awesome and I felt very welcomed at the local dennys in Tustin- 1571 el Camino real! My server was Heriberto- he was super nice and awesome and consistent with everything to keep my food and coffee coming at a good pace. Yay. Jorian- helped me at the check out and helped me pay my bill he also gave me a review card with my server name on it All in all? 10/10 service!!!! Gooooooo Dennys team of Tustin!! You all rock!

    As someone who goes to multiple Denny's locations during late-night hours with friends, I can confidently say this was the best experience we've had. The food was excellent and served quickly. The service was efficient and heartfelt. Thank you to Miss Lam, who provided outstanding hospitality. Her attentiveness and positive attitude made it extra memorable. To top it off, she surprised us with toy cars. I highly recommend this location. If you want to be blessed please come to this location.

The seaweed is served perfectly crisp and is on par with KazuNori, which is exactly what you want in a hand roll. They also have a fun cocktail and drink menu if you want to make it more of an afternoon outing. One tip: if the line looks long before you leave home, you can join the Yelp waitlist as long as you're within a 3-mile radius. The line usually moves pretty quickly, so don't let it scare you off. Another thing I appreciated is that they'll make your hand rolls with ultra-light rice if you're trying to cut back on carbs without giving up sushi. It's a small touch, but one I wish more sushi spots offered. Everything is bar seating, which gives the restaurant a cozy, lively feel and lets you watch the rolls being made right in front of you. Definitely one of my favorite casual sushi lunches in Irvine.

My son called Culinary Dropout and spoke with Olivia, the hostess, to see if the kitchen was still serving. Olivia responded with genuine warmth and kindness, assuring us that the kitchen was still open and that they would be happy to welcome us. From the moment we arrived, Olivia's hospitality set the tone for an exceptional evening. She greeted us with a warm smile, made us feel genuinely welcome, and promptly seated us. Shortly after, our server, Layla, introduced herself. Despite the late hour, she was energetic, engaging, and had an infectious enthusiasm that elevated the entire dining experience. She expertly recommended several cocktails, along with a glass of wine, and her knowledge of both the bar program and the menu was impressive. Her recommendations for appetizers and entrées were spot on. We decided on the Wagyu Pigs in a Blanket, BBQ Nachos, and the Spicy Rigatoni. Every dish was beautifully prepared, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. Another team member, Emanuel, delivered one of our dishes and was equally personable and engaging. He took the time to share information about the restaurant, further demonstrating the outstanding level of hospitality displayed by the entire team. Manager Dave also stopped by our table to check on our experience. We shared with him that this was, without question, one of the best dining experiences we've had in Orange County in quite some time. Great food certainly matters, but it was the exceptional service, genuine hospitality, and positive energy of the staff that made the evening truly memorable.

The decor of the place looks exactly the same as before withe a very similar menu, full of American food but they did add some Mediterranean Items. They do also host events like live musical performances or rent out the entire space for private events from the sign. We came recently to watch a World Cup game on the multiple TV's near the bar area. They do have one large TV mounted on the side which is a combination of like 9 TVs but the picture quality was OK since the screens were abit dated with washed out colors with some dead pixels. We did get a full spread of food and drinks including beers and cocktails. They do have a wide variety of beers on tap BUT a majority are sold out so do ask or have a backup choice! The cocktails were tasty and standard for a sports bar. Our favor was the strawberry margarita but you can't really go wrong with any of the margaritas since they were standard recipes and flavors. They are slightly on the stronger side too! The food we got was a very pretty good for a sport bar: Hawawshi - Stuffed Pita Bread: grilled Pita bread stuffed with seasoned ground beef with onion and jalapenos served with tahini sauce. This is very tasty with the well seasoned ground beef paired with the tahini sauce and great for sharing. Shawarma Chicken Sandwich - This one was unexpected since it was wrapped in a tortilla wrap instead of the usual Pita bread so was more like a chicken burrito? The flavor was good with very tender sliced chicken paired with the garlic sauce, tomato, onions and tzatiki sauce too. Shawarma Fries: fries topped with beef or chicken shawarma , tomato , onion, parsley, feta cheese , cheddar cheese and tahini sauce. We got the beef and this was definitely the favorite of the table. This takes all the flavors of shawarma and puts it on some thick crispy fries and goes perfect with beers/cocktails. The one big issue at this place is the service is very slow since they are very short staffed! So everything from ordering, to drink to food delivery is extremely slow especially on a packed day like a World Cup game day. We waited a good 20-30 minutes before our first round of beers came and about 30 minutes for the food. It was obvious on the timing since it was way pass the first hydration break almost till halftime before we even started drinking! Overall, an OK place to hangout with friends to watch a sporting event but just don't expect fast service. They need to either hire more servers or they will lose repeat customers for future events.

The cooking uses quality ingredients and love and care. I was here on business by myself and was seated immediately and after a quick look at the menu decided on the devil's cut ribeye a steak. It comes with a massive amount of oven, roasted potatoes and green beans. I also got a side salad with it as well which was way too much food for one person. The entire thing was big enough for two normal or maybe even three light eaters. The steak was excellent with a sweet coffee rub with a slightly sweet mapley taste. I could only finish about half and save the rest for the next day. Even though I was full, I decided to try the fried apple pie because it was recommended by many other reviewers. It was actually amazing. It was the dish that was highly recommended by the server and she was not wrong. The ice cream on top was probably House made and the pie itself was like a gourmet version of a hostess apple pie but of course with much higher quality ingredients and it was delicious. The vibe of the restaurant is exciting. It is a fun place to visit with the visual aspects such as the bird cages in the window case. Oak barrels used for aging whiskey are set around and the general vibe was very attractive. Everyone was having a great time and making quite a lot of noise from all the conversation and the music, but people were really enjoying themselves. If you want to have a quiet conversation with someone, this is probably not your place, but if you want a fun time with that kind of vibe, it is an excellent place. I recommend Bosscat highly.

Overall, it was a decent meal, but a few things kept it from being a place I'd regularly come back to. The burger itself had great flavor and was cooked well. It was juicy, but almost a little too juicy--the amount of grease made it feel pretty heavy by the end of the meal. I enjoyed the first few bites, but it's probably not the burger I'd order again next time. The truffle fries were definitely the highlight. Crispy, well seasoned, and packed with truffle flavor without being overpowering. I'd happily order those again. The dining experience was a little less enjoyable. The seating system felt more complicated than it needed to be, and the restaurant was fairly crowded during my visit, which made it feel a bit hectic. I also noticed the TVs weren't showing sports or anything particularly engaging, so it didn't really have the atmosphere of a place where you'd want to hang out after your meal. Overall, the food was decent, especially the truffle fries, but between the overly greasy burger and the crowded atmosphere, this visit didn't quite live up to my memory. I'd still consider coming back, but I'd definitely try a different burger next time.
