I was very impressed with the service here. Fast and friendly staff. Couldn’t make up my mind, so we started with a half order of their Nachos. They were really good! I loved the seasoned nacho meat on them. At last, my Bacon Slamburger arrived. It was comprised of a crispy hash brown, an egg cooked to order(I got mine over-easy), and two bacon strips on top a hand-pressed beef patty covered with Pepper Jack queso. All within a really soft and light bun. I would definitely come back here when I am in the area. I’ve heard good reviews about their chicken fried steak.

I’ve always been a fan of Denny’s. I grew up at the time when Denny’s was only in the US and we would visit them during our hockey road trips. Of course now Denny’s are everywhere. I haven’t been to Denny’s for a while and decided to go the other day. There’s something about the Denny’s atmosphere that’s very comfortable. For me, as soon as I walk in it’s like I just stepped into the US. Somehow they manage to retain the American feel, right down to the friendly managers and servers. I always get the Lumberjack Slam and all the coffee I can handle! I will say that other local breakfast places offer more food for the money compared to Denny’s these days, but none have that great atmosphere that only Denny’s can provide.

I have loved Denny’s for being open 24 hours. The omelettes there are great. I like the Loaded Veggie one.

I came here specifically for the country fried steak and eggs today. I haven’t been this way for a while. It appears there have been some staffing changes but the service is still excellent. The place was packed this beautiful Sunday morning. Unsure if this is the norm as this is the first morning trip I’ve made here. Overall, country fried steak and eggs came within 10 minutes and was excellent :)

Everyone knows Brooklin/Whitby is poor man’s Richmond Hill. The Centrum is a large, open space«plaza» with a variety of services that cater to teens/young adults and families(ex. restaurants, mini golf, movie theaters). A Denny’s at this location fits into the poor man’s Richmond Hill complex perfectly. I can’t stand their food, but I do appreciate their eggs done at a good price. And the waiters here were so friendly.

The food was awesome as usual. My wife and her two coworkers visited this Denny’s in Whitby on Friday March 6. The co-workers were new to Denny’s and were very excited about the menu and wanted to try everything. There enthusiasm and enjoyment was soon destroyed by their male waiter from the bowels of hell. He slammed down every plate and dish ordered, walked away and completely ignored us in mid sentence trying to add additional items to the order. The food order was wrong but they were afraid to return the orders. This was the meanest waiter ever. This waiter even yelled at them to leave the tip on the table instead of in his hand.

My family and I went there on August 4. The food was OK, but the kitchen screwed up my wife’s order, putting cheddar cheese on her burger when she’d ordered Swiss. It was the waitress who ruined the meal. The woman didn’t smile once. She had zero personality. And, while we were trying to figure out what we wanted for dessert, she dropped our bill in front of my wife. I guess she decided we’d had enough. And then we looked at the bill, noticed that cheese wasn’t mentioned on my wife’s order at all, and realized the problem with the order was probably her fault, too. Maybe it was near the end of her shift and she’d stopped caring? Because both my wife and I have worked(and she still works) in the service industry, on our $ 72 bill we would have normally rounded up to an even $ 100. We tip very, very well; usually 30% or more if the food/service is decent. Last night, we rounded up to $ 80 and went somewhere else for dessert and coffee. Will we go back? Probably. But not anytime soon. And if we get that same waitress, we’ll ask to sit somewhere else or just leave.

The avocado chicken was what I had ordered here late night. The good thing about the place is the quick service. The bad thing is that the salad had too much dressing that it was drowning in it. I guess that can be a subjective opinion but I guess it ruined it for me. The chicken and avocado where fresh though and tasted great however the salad is usually essential for me and hence the rating.

Good food but a tad bit pricey for the regular breakfast fair. Love how they have 2 choices of coffee now. Both are good.

I’m not a big fan of breakfast type foods but I was pleasantly surprised with my visit to Denny’s. Very friendly service. Food arrived pretty quickly and most importantly the food tasted pretty good. Tried the cinnamon pancake which came with 2 eggs, bacon and hash brown. The pancakes were huge and could have been a meal on its own and it was drizzled with icing to give it that cinnabon type of taste. Also got the country fried steak and egg which also came with 2 eggs and a skillet filled with potato wedges, peppers, onions. The combination of all this made it very appetizing. Everything came to about $ 23 after tax. Not bad when it feeds 2 people.

My last Denny’s review was for a different location although this is the location we frequent the most. For a hassle free birthday brunch with a baby, we chose to dine at Denny’s. As always, the bustling dining room was filled with activity as busy servers deftly took orders, fill them and refill countless cups of coffee for patrons. Denny’s is a kind of place where you know exactly what you’re going to get. This consistency is what I love about Denny’s. Everything from food to service, I have not been disappointed at Denny’s. Sure, it’s no quaint downtown brunch spots but good luck trying to wait in line for 45 min and try to squeeze in a stroller in what’s usually way too small a dining room anyways. So, here we are. Hassle-free and an excellent example of quality control. Denny’s. We each ordered OJ and coffee to start. Neither the OJ or the coffee are excellent but they will do. I ordered a prime rib skillet and the hubby ordered country fried steak skillet. Both were very hefty brunch items indeed. Both skillets came sizzling with potatoes, veggies and meat nicely charring away… all topped with mounds of cheese. Gosh… you’ve got to love it here. Oh yeah, and there is also a side of toast that comes with each entrees. Our little girl even partook in some buttered toast. :) I don’t think I need to go into detailed description of the merits of the skillet since this is not that kind of review. Sure, my prime rib skillet was brimming with huge chunks of extra tender beef. How can you possibly go wrong when you throw together skillet potatoes, sizzling veggies, juicy beef pieces and cheese? You can’t. Believe me. All in all, this was another satisfying Denny’s experience for me and my little girl’s very first visit to Denny’s. I have a feeling we’ll be coming back here for years to come for many more pre and post movie meals or just for a good old family style breakfast. Oh yeah, there is also a promo where you can get a free Denny’s grand slam breakfast on your birthday. Maybe one day. :)

This Denny’s is located in the Empire Theatres Plaza in Whitby. We came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning and it was rather busy but they were able to seat us right away. I’ve only ever been to Denny’s once and it was in the states so when my boyfriend suggested we go, I was open to see what it was like. Although it was busy, we were seated right away and our waitress was over quickly to take our drink order. My only issue here was that when I got my tea, pouring water from the mini t The menu here is pretty expansive, lots of choices, lots of options for healthier choices too. I ended up going with the Grand Slam which was three eggs with cheese, two links of bacon, two pieces of bacon and hashbrowns and toast. Our food arrived quickly, faster than I expected actually. Everything was good, fluffy eggs, tasty sausages, crispy bacon and these neat hashbrowns… love the hashbrowns. Overall, for the price we paid and the amount of food we got, I’d come back here for sure and try something else off the menu. It’s not terribly original or anything but it ticked all the boxes for breakfast!

Had an excellent breakfast at this Denny’s. I had the All American Slam with Eggs, Bacon, Sausage, Hash browns and Toast. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly, the sausages were a little small but were very good. The waitress we had was very professional and polite even considering the table beside us was bitching and complaining about everything. Very good breakfast for a large chain restaurant

If you want breakfast for two to set you back $ 40 plus tip, this is definitely the place for you. That said, you get prompt service, a broad menu, and a horrifying understanding of why Americans are so fat a, long with the deal. I don’t know why I keep going here, some kind of Stockholm Syndrome.

Food is ok but it is WAY overpriced. $ 10 for an omlette, plus $ 2 extra for coffee makes for an expensive breakfast. I imagine it’s because it’s a franchise And the fact that the AMC plaza has crazy expensive rents. Better breakfast option just down the street.

What do you do when you’re in Whitby at 3am and your friend’s new bachelor pad has no food? You apparently go to Denny’s. I was starving and sleepy so my tolerance was really low. We just wanted to get some food and get out but the host was in a talkative, joking mood. Unfortunately his jokes were not funny. He gave us the late night menu, which only had one omelette option on there. I asked him if I could get it without meat. He sighed and said that I might as well just get the veggie omelette. I told him I would IF it had been listed on the menu he gave me. He said, «I’m only joking». I asked for no hash browns and some sausage. We received our orders and headed back to my friend’s house. First thing we noticed was that we BOTH had hash browns. My omelette was okay but I wouldn’t order it again. The only thing I loved were the sausages but good breakfast sausage can be devoured at other restaurants that would serve good breakfast as well. Next time I’ll know that when I’m up at 3am in Whitby, I need to drink some water and either go to bed or go back home to Toronto.
