**A Memorable Morning at the Café with Linda L.**The sun peeked through the lace curtains, casting a warm glow on the cozy corner booth. I settled into the cushioned seat, anticipation bubbling within me. It was a lazy Sunday morning, and I had chosen my favorite breakfast spot—the quaint little café tucked away on Elm Street.Linda L., our server, glided over with a smile that could brighten the grayest of days. Her apron was neatly tied, and her eyes sparkled as she handed me the menu. "Good morning! Ready to indulge in some breakfast magic?" she asked, her voice a melodic blend of cheerfulness.I nodded, my gaze already fixed on the page. The choices were abundant, but my heart knew exactly what it craved: the **Strawberry Stuffed French Toast**. It was legendary—a symphony of flavors that danced on the taste buds. Linda L. seemed to read my mind. "Ah, the French toast," she said, her eyes twinkling. "An excellent choice. You won't be disappointed."As she glided away, I sipped my coffee, inhaling the aroma of freshly ground beans. The café buzzed with life—the clinking of cutlery, the low hum of conversations, and the occasional laughter. Linda L. moved gracefully between tables, attending to each guest with genuine warmth. She was more than a server; she was a storyteller, weaving tales of culinary delights and shared moments.And then it arrived—the pièce de résistance. A plate adorned with golden slices of brioche, stuffed with plump strawberries and a hint of vanilla. The whipped cream atop resembled fluffy clouds, and a drizzle of maple syrup cascaded down the sides. I closed my eyes as I took the first bite—a symphony indeed. The strawberries burst with sweetness, the bread soaked in eggy goodness, and the crunch of toasted almonds added a delightful surprise.Linda L. appeared by my side, her eyes crinkling at the corners. "How's the French toast?" she asked, her pride evident. I could only nod, my mouth full, but my heart singing. It was more than a meal; it was a memory etched in syrup and crumbs.As I paid the bill, Linda L. leaned in. "Come back soon," she whispered. "We'll have more stories to share." And I knew I would return—the café, the French toast, and Linda L.—a trio of magic waiting to be savored again.So here's to Linda L., the great server who made my morning extraordinary, and to that heavenly Strawberry Stuffed French Toast—I'll forever love it.---*Bon appétit!* ??☕

Went there today with my sister and nephew and enjoyed a breakfast meal for lunch-nephew decided on a cheese burger with fries-but all was excellent. Especially, the orange juice. Dennys never fails...

Stopped by last week with the family. The waitress was friendly but the cook was a whole new level of low quality. Usually when we get Dennys, our food takes 15-25 minutes tops to deliver to the table. Instead of cooking, this guy in the kitchen decides to stare at our table for no joke about 15 minutes. Finally near an hour of waiting I complained about the wait, as three other tables that came after us had received there food. When we finally did receive the meal, it was worse than usual. Though I like this spot, and am a regular customer because the wait staff is usually very nice, we will not be returning. Absolutely uncomfortable and bad experience due to one weird person pretending to be a cook in the kitchen.

Arrived from Canada. They sat me and i waited and waited and waited. Then I left. Go to Jay St instead. I travel a lot for work and traditionally Denny’s has consistently good food and friendly fast service. Not here…

I actually love American cuisine, but when I came here to have breakfast, I waited only 20 minutes and there was not even an employee there, he did not clean the tables, the place was dirty and I gave up waiting to order. I even wished that I could have eaten earlier if I had gone to the counter and cooked myself. But I'm sorry, this is a disgraceful place. definitely don't come

I came here with my family and was not impressed at all I've been Denny's over and over and over for the past couple of years and for some reason this experience I've had was the worst experience I have ever had.... We ordered the Classic Sampler and it was not at all what it looked like in the picture and I ordered the Salmon, with Wild Rice and Red skin potatoes and the Salmon was dry and severely over cooked, the potatoes were not red skin potatoes and we're undercooked and raw, and the wild rice were also undercooked and hard like it came out of the bag. My husband ordered the Grandslamwich with cheese and he was also undercooked and dry no flavor, like someone is cooking too fast and not cooking properly. I use to love Denny's but now I'm depressed and will not come back. GOOD BYE DENNY

Had the pleasure of meeting Lisa today. She was wonderful, attentive, funny, and one hell of a server. The cook made me the best omelet I have had in years. Thank You.

This is the nicest, hardest working, most friendly Denny’s crew I have ever seen. They routinely have older regulars come in to see them. The food is fresh, delicious, not greasy. Portions excellent. They are kind, patient, accurate, and do their best even on days I have observed a skeleton crew and issues such as homeless/ mentally unwell folks coming into the restaurant.
