17 Best American Restaurants in Brentwood

“We always have such a great experience at Denny’s in Brentwood! Catherine is an amazing server; she’s always so friendly, attentive, and makes us feel genuinely welcome every time we come in. Ella, the manager, is wonderful as well and you can tell she really cares about her guests and the experience they have.
It’s rare to find a place where the service is consistently this good, but Catherine and Ella always go above and beyond. They’re a huge part of why we keep coming back. Thank you both for always taking such great care of us! 😊“

“I would like to say that since Grant Henley became our General Manager it’s been great! He is an awesome GM. Grant understands his employees. He’s very professional and polite.“

“I have been coming to Diggers for years, both Brentwood and Concord. I'm a sucker for an old school bacon cheeseburger and chili cheese fries. They have all kinds of shakes, burgers, and fries. Their breakfasts are pretty solid too. My wife and I came here a lot while dating, and now we bring our kids. Great place, I don't think they have a bad thing on their entire menu.“

“We went on a Tuesday night -
I picked up my guest from two different locations, from Berkely to Alemeda to Concord then straight to the restaurant's location in Brentwood.
Traffic was horrendous, 3 hours, but the company and conversation made it bearable. We arrived safe and ready to eat. Parking was great.
I gave a rate of 4-stars only because when we arrived there was a sign that Sushi will return in the spring and we didn't see anyone having hot pot, only Korean bbq. Don't get me wrong, the Korean bbq was fabulous with the condiments and service! We will definitely return when Sushi is back and try the hot pot.
The workers are very hospitable and honest as one of my guest discovered upon returning home that their wallet was missing. They had called the restaraunt the following day and the woman that served us that evening had found it under the table and had set it aside for us. Everything was accounted for. I highly recommend this honest and hard working establishment.“

“Thank-you Zack for making Sam and I wedding anniversary dinner a romantic ambiance and cozy atmosphere!!“

“We had a wonderful dining experience at Attraversiamo. The quality and taste of the food were outstanding—everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. You can really tell the vegetables are high quality and fresh, which made every dish stand out. The experience honestly reminded us of dining in Las Vegas with that elevated, fine-dining feel. I ordered the Al Fresca mocktail and it was incredibly refreshing. For my entrée, I had the hanger steak cooked medium, and it was perfectly prepared—tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It’s great to have a restaurant with this level of fine dining right here in Brentwood. Definitely worth visiting if you’re looking for a high-quality dining experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food and service are both excellent. Paul continues to run a top-tier cafe!“

“Very good vegetable omelet with hash browns and a side of fruit. My friend had an Arnold Palmer. Our waitress was very nice. My friend who was from out of town thought it had a great atmosphere and delicious food. My first time there and will go back. Try Dads Diner.“

“I visited Eight Acres for dinner and brunch and loved both experiences. The atmosphere is beautiful with an open, airy dining room upstairs, a speak easy vibe downstairs and views of the surrounding hills. The staff is very friendly and make you feel at home. Our favorite dish so far is the Blueberry French Toast at brunch. It has a light crust around the side that reminds me of a creme brulee crust. Highly recommend!“

“We always have the same waitress she’s awesome and works her tail off.“

“I had Sticky Chicken and Ribs cater for our Christmas party this last year. The food was amazing, the portions were good, and the price was within our budget. Jerry, the owner, personally delivered the food and brought all of the serving utensils we needed. I highly recommend this business for catering!“

“The only reason why i keep coming back to this location is for Aussie. She is an allstar with customer service. We have had some terrible experiences, but she has always turned it around and helped us. Now when she sees us she helps serve us everytime!! This girl deserves a raise.“

“great service, fresh ingredients, lots of choices and clean space. yummy!“

“Can't believe it took me so long to find them!!!! Absolutely flavorful food, large portions and great service. VERY POLITE and amazing customer service. This will be a weekly spot for us 🥙😋“
