This is a Denny's, not 'The Meltdown'

Paris Smith a year ago

The bread on my sandwich was as hard as a hockey puck. I’m being so serious. My husband ordered DoorDash from here tonight and we were severely disappointed and dissatisfied. My husband didn’t even wanna finish his food it was that bad. His bread was also very hard and inedible. They also didn’t add his onion rings side. Please don’t waste your time by ordering here you will have a very disappointing dinner.

It's Dennys! Great food and service. The staff are so personable and awesome.

This is a Denny's. Should be made a lot clearer that it's not actually a separate restaurant. Also, bold move to take a dig at the Waffle House next door. Last I checked, they weren't struggling to stay in business.

I love the meltdown. All that cheese that they use makes it ooey gooey yumminess. If you love cheese then you must check out the Meltdown.
