I stopped in here for lunch following a meeting at Longo Lexus next door and had a little work to do at the same time.Service was quick and friendly, with no pressure on my time at all - although the restaurant was quite empty, so there was nobody waiting for a table.The food was surprisingly tasty, and there was certainly plenty of it. The free wi-fi worked well too, enabling me to eat and work without any issues.The staff were attentive, and the drink refills kept flowing.Denny's has been a surprise on my trip across the US. For someone spending a long time on the road in unfamiliar territory, the comforting predictability and quality of the chain, along with the wi-fi, makes it a winner.

The Derby never disappoints! Our party of 4 was seated immediately (with reservations) on an early Saturday evening. Our waiter, Jim, was fantastic. One of the best we've had there. Food, as always, was prepared properly, served at the appropriate temperature and very tasty. We all had some form of steak and they were cooked perfectly. Sides are generous and dinners come with vegetable & choice of potato or rice. One of the couples was celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary and Jim brought out a Baked Alaska for dessert. He was always on the spot, without being intrusive. Will definitely ask for him in the future.

Yep, this place has the best Jolly Jug pastrami dip we have ever had. Its amazing! What is further amazing, they have been making good pastrami sandwiches for decades.I grew up enjoying them and they still make them good today.Today we lucked out - they had a daily special of pastrami sandwich, french fries, and pickle for under $9.00. Service is very good here.The only difference from when I enjoyed it as a child to today, is that today I got a fortune cookie and almond cookie complementary at the end. It brought a smile to my face,.The other nice thing is that there were other people there who had been there when they were younger too and were bringing their grand child to enjoy. Thanks Jolly Jug - and if you like pastrami dip, just go. Its so good.

Visiting family here in California. They recommended we go to this restraunt for dinner. We found the place clean and the staff quite friendly. Our server Vanessa offered menu options was quite attentive even though she had other customers. The staff in general worked well together. We found the food very good with large portions. Look forward to our next visit Neil, thank you for being such a fan and for sharing your NORMS experience with us! We hope to see you again soon!

If you're tired of Danny's try this for a sunny morning breakfast. When it's warm, sit out on the patio and watch the planes take off or land. (It's a super distraction for the little ones.) This is HOME food. Nothing fancy, just morning stuff just like grandma used to make.Lunches are okay. Do check out the specials because there are some winners.
