9 Best American Restaurants near Irvington

“My family loves The Lighthouse! We had the best experience this evening. My sister & I brought our kids after the DI Mardi Gras parade. Two adults with a 6 year old, two 5 year olds, a 1 year old & a 9 month old. We had a 35 minute wait, but it went by fast. We had a great server, she was so sweet. Our girls were a little loud, but the whole restaurant was loud due to it being busy, a drink got spilled but we cleaned it up. We had two older women and a man sit at the table behind us & they were constantly staring, talking about us & our children. I guess we were a bother to them, I was very upset about it. After we paid, a tall man who works in the back came out and told us not to go anywhere yet, that he had something for the girls. He brought out 3 popsicles & opened them for them 🩷 My sister said he had been looking out from behind the counter and thought he had noticed the situation. Even if he didn’t, he was so kind and it made everything better. Just made me love the restaurant even more. Our food was 10/10 as always!“

“The manager on duty was micromanging the heck out of this wonderful team. Food and service was great but how he talked down to them you could clearly see that he was the issue. When he took one of his many bathroom breaks the entire team seemed to have a weight lifted. Keep up the great work guys and let his comments roll off your backs!!“

“Place could use better cleaning..“

“I love Judy's and so do my friends. Food is delicious and the operation runs like a well oiled machine.“

“This was the best diner I have ever been to. The peach cobbler was life changing!“

“There frozen coffee hits the spot! There are so many endless flavor combinations to try but personally cinnamon toast crunch and the fruity pebble ones bring out the inner child! They are always so sweet, there customer appreciation and level of niceness is up there on Chick-fil-a level and then some! This is one stop you don't want to miss!“

“The only reason I put 4 stars to the atmosphere is because the bathroom was dirty. You will get more customers if you keep your bathrooms clean. Kyla is a fantastic server! We really enjoyed her. Asiah did a wonderful job serving! Great place to relax and enjoy a meal.“

“got the pulled pork sandwich. meat had ZERO flavor and was as dry as boomer humor. the seasoning sauce was water scared with garlic powder. potato salad was disrespectfully disgusting. banana pudding was watery and the bananas were black. green beans were dumped from a can and had less seasoning than printer paper. Mac and cheese was essentially just pasta in a cheese water sauce and the atrocity of what they dare to call sweet tea was an insult to all southerners. get a better staff too. they carried a conversation and it was quite clear they wanted to keep talking when I was approaching. the lady at the pickup register talked over me and was obviously annoyed to be at work.“
