Denny's is a staple for a quick breakfast or a meal. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served here. The food is mediocre at best, and the same in all Denny's restaurants.Today, we went for breakfast at the Santa Maria location. The menu is vast, filled with all sorts of combinations to the point where it gets confusing.I wanted a pancake with eggs and a sausage. Seemed like a simple request, but this combination comes in more than ten ways with various prices. I almost ordered the items separately because I did not want all the extras for $17.The waiter showed me a simple breakfast menu where they serve two pancakes, two eggs, sausages, and hash browns for $7.49.When the bill came, I was charged the $17. Which only the manager could rectify. Time waster.In fact, after we were seated, it took a while to place our order. Then, after 40 minutes and guests who arrived after us were being served, we had to locate the server and ask about our order.I believe he never put it in because it took another 15 minutes before we were served.We had to find our server again to ask for our check, which was wrong as mentioned. It took us just under two hours for a quick mediocre breakfast. Very upsetting.The pancakes were fluffy and tasty. The sausage and hash browns were good. My friends omelet was very basic and not warm. My other friend had a breakfast sandwich with lacked the "breakfast" part and was also served not warm.The coffee was good, and I liked that they provided a small metal pot at the table, enabling the customer to pour their own refills.I think the server may have had some problems, which is why our order took so long and why he never checked on us or wrote up our order correctly.The restaurant was clean. There were many customers inside the restaurant and several customers picking up to-go orders. There was adequate parking. The employees were well presented, just not on top of customer service or helping each other out.

Service was not the best. They brought out my pumpkin pie in the box. My friend said the water had a weird taste. My other friend said the tea was good. My friend's utensil looked dirty.

I ordered breakfast today, 10/1/2023. I went to pick up my order and got a receipt with my orders checked. I assumed it was a complete order. I understood the fact that restaurant like Dennys get super busy on Sunday. Unfortunately my order was missing a few items that were part of my breakfast meals. Additionally to the poor service it's lame to see their website service to suggest to leave a tip for a mobile order. What I have learned from this experience is not to order Online unless I go dine In for service since many restaurants try to shortchange you with food. Don't waste your time ordering online just go in so you at least you tip based on their service.

The food is always good here and I usually get take out. To order take out you must do so in person not over the phone. My last meal it took them 6 minutes to deliver. Mcdonalds combos are only a few dollars less than dennys hamburger combos and dennys is so much better.

Typical Dennys atmosphere, small portions and wait staff really did not seem too enthusiastic about helping us.

Food was great! It was the price that shocked the heck out of me. 2 breakfasts, a sandwich and two milkshakes and 1 iced tea. Almost $100!!! I couldn't believe it. Maybe we ordered too many extras. I better start paying attention to what we order. But like I said the food was great!
