Danny's Carnation Restaurant

One of my favorite places to stop for breakfast, I visit Denver once or twice a year, I always stop at Carnations. The food is great, you better show up with a empty gut, as the servings are large. This place is always rocking with customers. I’ve never seen this place with less than one table vacant. Lastly the staff, they work very hard and the smiles are not fake, their work ethic is rare to see. The owners must treat their employees well, plus it was good to see some of the same employees still working there before the pandemic. Keep the great tasting food and service.

The owner at this place is outrageously rude and unprofessional. It was my first time going there and meeting up with a friend I hadn’t seen in a while. The place was busy on a Sunday morning. Had to wait ~ 15 min to get sat. Food was pretty average and didn’t take a long time to come out. Shortly after an hour, Danny (owner) came by and tapped on the table and told us we had to hurry up and leave soon so they could sit other tables. We looked around and there were plenty of empty tables so we kept finishing our drinks and catching up before heading out. About 15 min later, Danny came by again and was being very aggro about telling us to leave. He got very agitated and told us they needed to make business and we had to leave. We said that no one had told us that you only had about an hour before you had to leave. Danny then proceeded to have a meltdown and agitatedly tell us this is how it is every weekend. He was yelling at this point. We replied this was our first time going there an

This is an iconic Lakewood restaurant that always delivers good food and great service. I’ve never been disappointed by an order for breakfast or lunch.
