I'm ashamed of Cortland Denny's and will never eat there again!

I was having breakfast at the Cortland, NY Denny's on March 5th when I witnessed a male server abusing and co-worker it made my stomach sick. This male who was African American was working with a White Woman when he started following her around the restaurant, swearing and yelling at her using very bad language towards her. The poor girl did not approach him or react in any way, she just tried waiting on her tables. He screamed F@CK YOU in the middle of the restaurant at her then I heard him threated to have her beatup by his girlfriend. The manager witnessed all of it but did nothing.
Is this how Denny's allows their employees to be treated while at work? This guy broke many employee laws and nothing happened to him. I will NEVER pay for another meal at Denny's in Cortland. Shame on all of the Management Team and Owner-you should protect your employees from harassment and a violent workplace not to mention fearing for their lives. You should all be re-trained on employee laws or hire a qualified management team and that male server should be fired before a lawsuit is filed again your restaurant!

Worst Experience at Dennys of Orville Essex Maryland

If there was ZERO star I would give it to them. I ordered food and was called telling me.that my food was ready at 12:27 am eastern time. I drive there for about 10 minutes. When I got inside they told me thst my food was not ready and had to sit and wait few minutes. ( this was their chosen words) So, I waited, waited other people came ordered paid and left me feeling like I was invisible. Each time O asked the answer was few minutes then I waited until around 01:45 I was forced to call while I am inside the restaurant watching I'm and outgoing customers. They told me to wait few minutes at around 02:10 one gent brought incomplete broken meal and me to have made a mistake of calling for my order update and that they got no control over what they tell certaincustomers. (Seriously?!?!) Right now I feel reliving the same nightmare today. Then they told me That I wi have to wait for another 45 minutes for my order to be fixed . Then I was tired and had work starting few hours I gave them what they wanted to leave my money and food and what I went home with Sorry for the inconvenience.

Excellent food & service!!!

Excellent food, cooked perfectly. Excellent professional service. The hostess was great.the cc restaurant looked good, very clean and organized. I noticed the workers keep busy the whole time doing something which looks so much better than just standing around

They do not greet you right away

They do not greet you right away. Very longggggg wait!!!! The restaurant smells bad and is unkept When I went to sit down, the table and booth was dirty. The food was cold and nasty. What I really wanted of course they didn't have. They gave me a substitute meal which was salty and nasty. I just left it alone. I will never set foot in there ever again. At least not that Denny's on Tintern St. Maybe I will try another Denny's in the future.

Awful meal

Awful meal. It was cold and tasteless. The waitress was rude and never asked how meal was no service but to bring drinks and 1/2 hour later get the order and another 1/2 hourlater our meal. Never came with cups for our coffee we asked for. She didn't even say sorry about cold meals I could go on but I'm finished with the Hagerstown Dennys

I wish to recognize Sue C

I wish to recognize Sue C. at Denny's Restaurant #7544 at 8614 S Hosmer, Tacoma, WA 98444. My wife and I are from Redmond, WA and were attending our granddaughter's college basketball game in Tacoma. Sue was so delightfully friendly and helped me locate my cell phone which I thought had been lost. When we entered #7544, we thought any restaurant would do, but no more. Seeing Sue C. again when in Tacoma next time is a priority. Yea, Sue!!! Bob Drexler and Louise Brewer

My wife and I both love Dennys

My wife and I both love Dennys because they are so consistent no matter where we go. Your Green Valley is by far the best breakfast restaurant in either Green Valley/Sahuarita. Our waitress (Julia) was very good.
We just thought you should know what a good job they are doing.

The Denny's in Nacogdoches Texas has great management and the staff is allways pleasant.

I arrived at 10:33 a.m

I arrived at 10:33 a.m. I stopped because I had blood work done and I was hungry. I had too fast all night. I was seated and waited a good 15 minutes for someone to take my order. The waitress told me that they were out of eggs, that someone went to get some. Said I would have to order scrambled eggs which was fine. I waited 55 minutes for my order when my order came I said I need my toast, jelly and more hot water and a teabag. I started eating my food because my toast did not arrive fast. I waited 10 minutes for my toast to come. I then stopped Jessica who wasn’t my waitress , she was a very good waitress, she was non stop at her work. She got me hot water and another teabag. Finally, my toast came. Jessica brought me my bill so I wouldn’t have to wait. Finally my waitress Sherry came over and asked me if everything was OK Jessica had gone above and beyond to help out in here area and my waitresses area. One of the gentlemen had placed an order, had his coffee drank it and had another cup and decided to leave because his order wasn’t ready. I will not be back very poor service. I am very disappointed with the wait for my food, and poor service. And then I have to wait for my toast and jelly to top it off!!! Ridiculous!!! Denny’s 840 Cypress Parkway, Poinciana, Fl.
