  One way to achieve this is to set the lengthMenu variable in the (document).ready call.

      $(document).ready(function ()
      {
          $('#table_id').DataTable({
              "lengthMenu": [[25, 30, 50, -1], [25, 30, 50, "All"]],
          });
      });//Close Document Ready Function

  You are attempting to initialise the same DataTable two different ways:

  <script type="text/javascript">$('#table_id').DataTable( {
    responsive: true
  } );
  </script>
  <script type="text/javascript">$('#table_id').DataTable( {
    pageLength: 25
  } );
  </script>
  

  See this section of the manual for how to initialise a table just once, with multiple options.

  Ok thank you. I tried this and it is still not doing anything.

  Seems to work for me. The attached image is what I get when I load the page - 25 records shown, per your pageLength option.
