There are a few times in life that I question my decision to eat somewhere. When I arrived, there were but a handful of patrons. The staff seemed distracted and I questioned if I should seat myself. When taken to the table it could have been wiped down better. The menu was sticky (yuk, germ city). The wait staff once they were able to focus were friendly, and felt like you may have known them forever. The building is gorgeous. An oldtime diner. I know the staff are busy, but the cleaning staff should at least get the food off the stainless steel trim, and glass block dividers. Music was nostalgic, a trip down memory lane, good match for the style of the diner.
The wait staff have been hustling, not a hesitation to clear a table or refill your coffee cup.
I have eaten at a lot of Dennys this trip. This one had the most character, which is a plus; just needs to be cleaned better.
I would not go out of my way to return, took 30 minute for food to arrive and the food tasted odd. The only way I can describe it - like old cooking oil. Too bad first Dennys to disappoint.
