This is Denny's restaurant! I don't know what the hell the meltdown is! It's a freaking Denny's!!!!

Our waitress, Day, was outstanding! I don't think there are enough positive things to say about her. She took our party of 8's order without writing anything down and it amazed us all that our order was 100% right, no fault at all. I could never do that myself! The food was great, the wait time wasn't bad either for a busy Monday after a holiday. Great place with great staff. We will be returning again and hopefully with Day as our waitress!

I don’t know what these people are talking about with the one star review but I ordered from here on DoorDash at 11pm at night and the food was bussin!!!!! Hands down will be ordering at least once a week! Just like the Mr. Beast Burger places this place is online order only. Hands down will be recommending this place to everyone in Henderson/ Kittrell area! I smashed my food so I have no way to show how good this place is but the meat was tinder, the bread was fresh, the cheese was fresh! The strawberry cake dessert was ?. Like I said this place didn’t disappoint and we will be ordering again!

As a chain restaurant you have the standard menu fare but they can change up the flavors to suit your palate and they are happy to do that. We have found that most of the staff are friendly and fast.

This is inside Denny's, not a real location. My desert, which was suppose to be served on slices of pound cake, was served on sandwich bread. The sandwich was so hard I couldn't bite the bread. Wish I could post these pictures...don't bother.

WHAAAAATTT!!! Bae'B!!!! Whew.. :-) Let me tell ya. This was the BEST Denny's we've ever ate at-TO DATE!!! We've eaten here-4 times during our trip! It was that good! Our waitresses each time were so accommodating and sweet! Couldn't ask for better customer service. .* Let's get into it!!! My hubby ordered the sizzling chicken platter, while I ordered plain light pancakes, second trip, he got the same thing ans I again with the pancakes and scrambled eggs. 26 December 1st trip and 29 December second trip. Both times (clapping) they did not disappoint. My hubby would have went every other day, but I can't do pancakes THAT much a body explosion waiting to happen. LOL.Soooo with all that I'd say - YES! Goooo! The owners even came out to talk to us. Very petite gentle lady. Shoot! Forgot our waitress name, but she was BOMB af! Never missed a beat to make sure our glasses were not 1/2 full- She's certainly doing her calling.

Do not recommend , I watched an incident occur in there where a customer brandished a gun at the employee and was allowed to leave . I’ve been attempting to check on the employee but see she no longer is there . Poor management because I also never seen a manager come out and do anything . Idk if it’s because the employee was a woman of color and the customer was not but either way I feel as if them servers are poorly treated and underpaid

Really can't say enough about southern hospitality and the staff at Dennys. I am from NY and was just having the worst day start to finish. Food was great, but the staff was even better. Can't thank them enough for saving a tried soul. If I ever end up back in Henderson Dennys will be my first stop. THANK YOU!

Love my Dennys. The food is always good and they have such a great selection. The staff amazes me when they take your order. They never write it down and it's right. Feels like home.

Workers are working very hard. They really need more help. Service would have been better but I only saw 2 waitresses and 1 hostess! Could you all please get them the help they so desperately need at the Henderson Denny's!

The place looks good on the outside but it is what is on the inside what matters. We sat down and we got our drink orders in and we got drinks in a timely manner. I went to the bathroom and it was very clean. But the overall experience I had there was disappointing. It was around 11:00 am on 4/9/22. It was around lunch time. So I was planning on ordering a burger. But our waitress came and said "sorry we're only serving breakfast." When I heard this, I was shocked. 1st of all the Denny in Fairfax, VA serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner all day. 2nd of all it was 11:00 am which is around lunch. This Denny location was inconsistent with other Denny I have visited. I had to order Steak and Eggs. I was trying to substitute eggs with sausage. But our waitress said "all breakfast foods must have eggs on the side." This is when I got disappointed. The place was clean but the service was bad. Our waitress or any waitstaff was not at fault. It was most likely the fault of the management and kitchen staff. The food came out good but I was pretty upset by the service. I recommend Denny but I do not recommend this Denny location.

Not an upscale eatery- more like a mom and pop restaurant. A chain restaurant that's a favorite of my and my husband's throughout the years. Easily accessible off I85 - Dabney Drive, Exit Henderson NC, surrounded by a few other favorites places to eat,and close to a hospital, strip mall & Grocery Stores. The menu offers breakfast all day, lunch and diner options. Covid Protocol noticed - a no frills eatery with southern cuisine on the menu and vegan, calorie conscious menu options available. I had pancakes, turkey bacon-fresh fruit-way more than I could eat- ended up taking the fruit home. The food was very good. No complaints. Our party was seated promptly to a clean table. Sometimes it gets crowded and there's a waiting time- especially with less servers and staff. There seemed to be one waitress in our dining area -but we had no complaints.All and all an enjoyable breakfast experience!!!!

I’ve eaten at several Dennys and they were great. This one was horrible. We waited for our food for an hour and when we got it the fries were over cooked like fried and refried again to heat them up dried chip like. The burgers were dry and the service was dismal. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
