Yeah, just take 394 towards Danville and take it ALL the way down til you reach the HUGE flashing stop sign. Go left, floor the pedal and Denny's is on the right.

I've got a friend who got pulled over for missing it about 15 years ago. The cop asked him if he realized he just blew the biggest stop sign in the state. He actually let him go though.
