Denny's Makes Its Very Fancy New York Debut on Friday
-
Owner Rahul Marwah says he wanted this Denny's to feel like a regular New York restaurant. Hence: exposed brick, tin ceiling, and leather booths.
-
Oh yeah, and there's also a full bar. According to Marwah, there are only a handful of Denny's with bars in the country, and most of those are near military bases.
-
But this is probably the only Denny's in the world that has craft cocktails.
-
Among the offerings: a dark & stormy with "house spiced" rum, a classic vesper, and a bourbon cream soda served on tap.
-
There's also a $300 "Grand Cru Slam," which involves two classic Grand Slams, a bottle of Champagne, and "bartender high-five." That's right, this Denny's is so classy you can get Dom with your pancakes.
-
There are lots of old-timey photos of New York everywhere. Lest you forget, halfway through that omelette, how crazy it is that Manhattan just got its first Denny's.

This kitchen is enormous. This is only half of it.

A few new dishes are debuting at this Denny's. All involve stuff baked in bowls, none leave any illusion that the food at this Denny's will be different than any other Denny's. Pictured: chicken and rice bake, Italian meatball lasagna, Philly cheesesteak
