SPARTANBURG, S.C., April 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Denny’s most viral video of all time became internet history by asking one loud question (IYKYK). Now, in bold celebration of the 13th anniversary of that video, Denny’s is unleashing a beast of a burger, appropriately named the Mozz Pit Burger, available for a limited time from April 29 through June 2 in select restaurants in Houston (where it all started), Los Angeles and Miami.
The Mozz Pit Burger starts with a juicy 100% beef patty, melted American cheese, and a soft, golden brioche bun. But it doesn’t stop there – three crispy mozzarella sticks crash the party, drenched in rich tomato sauce for a flavor explosion that’s part burger, part cheesy masterpiece – and all chaos in the best way possible.
“We’re inviting fans to stage-dive into this over-the-top burger,” said Chris Bode, President & CEO, Denny’s. “The Mozz Pit Burger celebrates the ‘no rules’ attitude that makes Denny’s so iconic and always open for whatever the day or night may bring. It’s loud, it’s bold, and it’s a tribute to the fans who have made America’s Diner the stuff of legends.”
Fans are encouraged to crowd surf their way to their local Denny’s to get this burger before it’s gone. Not near a Denny’s with the Mozz Pit Burger?
