The Philly-Inspired Denny's Breakfast Item That's Not Worth Ordering - Tasting Table
"ST stocks/Shutterstock From jalapeño popper pizza to butternut squash mac and cheese - sometimes, when worlds collide, food creations rule. Other times, however, imaginative ideas are no more that - nice-sounding concepts ultimately better left unrealized... like Denny's Philly Cheesesteak Omelet. In Tasting Table's roundup of the six worst breakfast items you should avoid ordering at Denny's, the Philly Cheesesteak Omelet made the cut - as in, you should cut it out of your list of potential candidates for breakfast."
"Denny's Philly Cheesesteak Omelet stuffs a three-egg omelet with classic cheesesteak toppings: grilled prime rib, fire-roasted bell peppers and onions, sautéed mushrooms, and Swiss cheese. It's savory, for sure - but our taste tester found that those soft omelet eggs lacked the structural integrity to support the cheesesteak chunks tucked inside. "The additions ... would be good, but really, they're just overpowering what should be an egg-focused dish ... it just wasn't very flavorful despite its long list of ingredients," they wrote."
"Our taste tester did not, however, dock any points for the price of this dish. At a restaurant location in Illinois, Denny's Philly Cheesesteak Omelet costs $16.09, served with your choice of potatoes and bread (which could also include buttermilk pancakes). Still, plenty of other options on the Denny's menu are just as affordable - and a whole lot better."
The Denny's Philly Cheesesteak Omelet contains a three-egg omelet filled with grilled prime rib, fire-roasted bell peppers and onions, sautéed mushrooms, and Swiss cheese. A taste tester reported that soft omelet eggs lacked the structural integrity to support the cheesesteak chunks, and that the additions overpowered what should be an egg-focused dish, resulting in muted overall flavor despite many ingredients. A Yelp customer likened the filling to "cafeteria mystery meat." The omelet costs about $16.09 at one Illinois location and is served with potatoes and bread. A YouTube reviewer similarly said the components do not play well together.
