Denny’s

Decent food and good service. Been many times and am sure I will go many more!

Bacon was burnt passed being edible. Could not believe any cook or chef would consider it fit to be served to a paying customer — or to anyone, for that matter. The server was willing to get me unburnt bacon at my request.

It is Denny’s. If you do not know the menu by heart, you have never lived and come in here 3 AM in the morning drunk when you were in college.
Now, this place is still here, has some good funny history. The food tastes like Denny’s. The wait staff is usually nice people. Lumberjack Slam is basically all I ever get. its super basic but good with a nice cup of coffee.

Don’t stop here!!! This is the dirtiest place I have ever seen. The bathrooms are filthy, the glasses are dirty the coffee was burnt. The local Health Department needs to stop by and check this place out!

Worst place to eat in town. The staff is filthy, rude, and usually under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The manager is also horrible. I’ve heard the husband and wife owners yelling at each other in the kitchen at least twice. None of the cooks speak English, apparently (according to the waitstaff, this is why the food sucks).
The food is always either over or undercooked. And, if you’re a vegetarian, do not eat here! They cook the veggie burgers right next to all the meat.

Oh Denny’s.
I opted for a ‘build your own Hobbit slam’. I wanted sweet potato pecan pancakes, but they were out. I did get the honey cake french toast which was amazing. The honey cake french toast is dense and sweet like pound cake. They give you a relatively small piece, which is plenty, because it’s super rich.
All of my food was well prepared and tasty. Eggs were great, hashbrowns were good, fruit was good. I even opted for the mango lemonade which was surprisingly good, though very sweet.
I even got the added benefit of listening to another customer loudly score coke over a bluetooth headset… so added entertainment value.

Wait 10 minutes. Ordered lumberjack slam, with orange juice. Ordered red white and blue pancakes with eggs and bacon. Drinks water with lemon and orange juice. Two people. Average price per person about $ 8 – 10. Meal was good had cream cheese on the side instead of pancakes would have been too sweet for me. Total for meal with side of fries $ 24.63.
Food is underwhelming most times, food in general in Oneonta has decreased at an alarming rate. Maybe it is all the drunk college kids who are just ok with eating poorly prepared food, or lazy dishes. But you can see that most cooks, restaurants in the area have just given up. Even the fast food ones just don’t care anymore, aside from Mcdonalds where ⁹⁄₁₀ times I get good looking food that isn’t slopped into a bag. It is sad that most meals at Mcdonalds look better prepared than these large chain and family restaurants.

I stopped into this Dennys for dinner with my friend and her two children, we were sat down as soon as we came in, which was nice, but we were mistaken to think that the rest of the service would of been as good. Our drink orders were taken, and later our food orders. It was 730pm and they were already no longer serving soup, whatever, it happens I guess. I ordered the avocado chicken Caesar salad, my friend ordered the super bird and chicken tenders for the kids. We didn’t get our food for 45 minutes AT LEAST and it really wasn’t even that busy. and during that whole time we weren’t checked on once, I had finished my hot chocolate and my water, an even my friends kids had finished his drink as well, but no one seemed to notice our empty cups at the end of the table or our «I’m parched and hungry» faces. If you have seen the menu and the image of the avocado chicken Caesar salad, you’ll see it’s s full salad, with strips of grilled chicken, sprinkled bacon and slices of fresh avocado. What was set before me looked unrecognizable, that I even asked to see the menu again, and «is this the salad I ordered?» What I got was sparse lettuce scattered on a plate, with over cooked crumbled pieces of chicken. That’s it. The dressing, since I ordered honey mustard, instead of the Caesar, was in a monkey dish, or rather, on the monkey dish, as it was all over the outside of the dish itself as if it had been dipped into a honey mustard tub heaven. As I was clearly unhappy with the salad before me I told the waiter, and I don’t aim to sound like a you know what but dognabit I was hungry and had been waiting forever and a day for A SALAD, I told him I wanted them to remake it like the picture. «Like the picture?» He asked in an uneasy voice. «Yes.» (Note: still parched with no refill) not long after he returned WITH THE SAME SALAD, topped off with a ridiculous amount of cheese and bacon crumbles, and who I assume was the manager. She apologized for the lack of avocado, saying that their avocados weren’t ripe yet, hard as rocks. But offered that I order something else. WHERE IS THE QUALITY CONTROL IF THE MANAGER HERSELF SETS BEFORE ME THIS AUDACITY?! It would of been nice had the waiter mentioned there were no avocados when I ordered a salad whose title has avocado right in it. The avocado isn’t even a big deal, what is a big deal is that the salad was crap, and the manager served it. How can you serve something so bad, don’t you want to be proud of what is put out? The salad was so misrepresented in their menu if that’s what they are serving there. My friend tasted a piece of the chicken and said it was gross, I knew it was gross just looking as it, it it looked some ones leftovers seriously. I told the waiter to take it back, I wasn’t going to eat it. My friends super bird looked over cooked too, I could hear her biting into it like an echo, but she said it tasting «alright» the kids chicken tenders and fries were good, so I guess they’re doing one thing right. The server seemed relieved that I didn’t want to order anything else, no sympathy. When we got our bill the server informed us that the chicken salad was removed, how thoughtful of them. I don’t like being a pill customer, I worked in a restaurant for 7 years, I understand it gets rough, I even usually over tip since I know how nice it feels to be appreciated. But this experience was crap, the food was. well I didn’t eat it, so THAT bad, the customer service sucked, and quality control was non-​existent. If there was a no star option I’d of chosen it.

Had breakfast this morning (Mothers’ Day) — very crowded and the kitchen got a bit behind. That said, the food was very good — cooked to order and very tasty. I like their new promotion (design your own pancakes) and it was so much food that I didn’t eat until dinner!
Overall, worth the wait.

I throw up every time I eat here. And I can honestly say that’s not of my own doing.
Yeah, if you value keeping the food you just purchased in your stomach don’t eat here.
The sticky film coating the tables and the dirty floors really heightens the experience. Not a fan of this Denny’s.
