50 Best American Restaurants near Brisbane

“good eats 😎..............“

“I recently visited Specialty’s Cafe & Bakery in San Francisco for a quick breakfast, and I was thoroughly impressed. The cafe features Peet’s Coffee, which makes for a perfect start to the day. I opted for takeout and ordered a Cafe Mocha and the spinach mushroom sandwich, both of which were delicious and fresh. The self-checkout system was incredibly convenient, making the ordering process seamless. The indoor seating area is comfortable, with a great ambiance for both quick stops and longer visits. If you have time, the walk around the bay just outside is absolutely stunning, offering a peaceful escape with beautiful views. A fantastic spot for a quick bite or to linger longer—highly recommend!“

“Good food 🥘 Fun atmosphere“

“Great Place! *************“

“Definitely try their Happy Hour frm 3pm-6pm on Wednesdays & Thursdays only.
I like going here after work for their happy hour to catch up with my sister bestie as she works around there. It's quite, serence and very relaxing by the Brisbane Marina. Plus a nice break if you are looking for a quiet me time away for yourself to relax.
Patio area is nice & cozy to chill & enjoy the sun with a beautiful waterfront view.
Food is good with american flare of sliders, chicken wings, flat breads, good selection of drinks, mocktails & beers definitely recommended.
Located on the back side of the Biosiences building with plenty of parking by Sierra Point Yacht Club and San Francisco Bay Trial to walk around the Marina & Pier.“

“Love the happy hour. Anchor Steam Draft and Chicken wings. And the sexy manager is very �“

“We had dinner there and the food was delicious…. The fried quail was the star. The starters were excellent. Very recommended restaurant“

“We walked in on NYE without a reservation and they graciously found us a spot in the bar area. Service was on point and staff were festively dressed! I love a crafty cocktail but most are too sweet. I had the Smokey mezcal cocktail 🍹. Perfection. Appetizers were delish as well. Perfect way to start our NYE celebrations.“

“Great food and ambience here!“

“An absolute SF classic that lives up to the hype! The English cut prime rib was perfectly aged, tender, and juicy, spun tableside from the silver dome cart—pure theater. Loved the Yorkshire pudding, creamed spinach, and that massive baked potato. Cocktails are strong and old-school. The retro vibe with white tablecloths feels like stepping back in time. Reservations essential, but it's worth it for a special occasion meat-lover's feast.“

“My friend, Mike, who lives nearby with his wife, raved about it so much that my BF and I decided to come after a short trip to Marin. It was everything that he described and more. It was fantastic! Excellent food and atmosphere. Will definitely add to my list of favorites and will recommend to my Palo Alto friends!“

“Affordable price, great taste“

“Holy moly, this place was great! The food is tasty & beautifully served. The service was great & Hannah made terrific suggestions. Really well done!“

“just lovely! vegan friendly but the fried chicken was tops!“

“A great way to experience a four course meal at an affordable price, with delicious food. We will definitely be back.“

“Great breakfast and fast service Thank you ♥️♥️“

“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. I am a business owner a few doors down and I wandered in with a friend after work one night about a month ago. We were met with such incredible warmth from the staff and the environment itself, even without a reservation. We sat at the bar and were greeted by Josh, only to find out later that he is the owner. He made excellent recommendations on everything from our drinks to dessert. The bar didn’t feel isolated from the rest of the restaurant and guests, but rather was lively hub frequented by kitchen and serving staff and warmed by a smoldering wood fire. The coziest. We swooned for the poke appetizer, complete with house-made toasted, but not crisp, blue corn tortillas. The pork shoulder tacos—also to die for. I have to say though, that the star on the sidelines was the beans. I honestly didn’t know I could feel this way about beans…but I digress. Josh bounced around from table to table all night, never letting a single ball drop, making every guest feel like *his* guest. A pot de crème sealed the evening in perfect bliss. I’m back a month later with the same friend, eating different and somehow even more incredible entrees: ribeye, halibut and a rhubarb crisp for dessert. I scarcely ever take the time to write a review as I prefer to vote with my $ and my feet, but I simply couldn’t eat here again without taking the time to sing it’s praises. Eat here.“

“The food in this restaurant is delicious, I hope you have time to try it.“

“味道很不错值得尝试一下！😁😁😁“

“Amazing dining experience. Worth the price“

“Really nice place. Highly recommended“

“Palms Court absolutely delivered. Best steak and sweet potato I’ve ever had — cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The Banana Split Sundae afterward was the perfect finish, and the latte was excellent as well.

Our server, Geovanni, was professional, attentive, and very responsive without being intrusive. Service was smooth from start to finish.

Great food, great service, and a classic steakhouse feel. I’ll definitely be back“

“Amazing food and service. Love this place!“

“Great airport spot. What I care about the most when traveling is an attentive server, an attentive server, and an attentive server. Keep an eye out for Vital - he’s exactly this. He has a spidey sense for traveler’s needs and flight schedules. Love this guy“

“Get there early if you want a seat. Their Whiskey Sour is absolutely perfect And they have actual food if you like that kind of stuff🍸🍹“

“Absolutely delicious. The staff was awesome. Consuelo couldn't have been more friendly! Great experience. Highly recommend 😋😋“

“Cheeseburger on a toasted sesame seed bun. Some mayo. Some lettuce and tomato. Side of fries. That’s a burger. It’s not The Melt, or McDonald’s. Not In-n-Out. It’s not a burger at STK. It’s not even the best burger in SF. It’s just a classic flavor that hits the spot. You don’t have to fly out here to try this, but if you’re in the neighborhood you can’t go wrong eating here.“

“Last Saturday we ordered a lot of food from the melt. The whole crew was working overtime and we all ordered multiple items and the crew absolutely killed it. Lady working the cashier was absolutely amazing. Sweetest lady ever. The cooks were amazing and they have a very good crew working. The only names I received were Mar, Janeka, Dom and Tone but everyone was incredible and we definitely will be back.“

“What an amazing culinary experience! We had a three course meal. The waiter was very helpful, friendly and had great recommendations! I highly recommend this place if you're in San Francisco!“

“Another brilliant visit to Sorrel and Alex Hong continues to reign as my current favorite Chef! 🤘🏼If you haven’t been to Sorrel, go. Total genius.“

“Read atmosphere increases wonderful, outdoor patio“

“Had read when researching SF Pat's was popular and didn't disappoint. Friendly staff and oh my tasty food and large portions 🤦my burrito 🌯 was huge.Did my best. 😀 recommend highly“

“The staff was so warm and immediately welcoming, even helping us take our photos! Our belongings were taken care of, food was classy and tasty, and the experience was beautiful with my party of 6. Tge food came in a timely manner and everyone was cared for!“

“Holy Schnike!!! The food is incredibly delicious, the non-seafood versions I am getting are the most amazing tastes. The Wines paired with the dishes are inspired and spot on.“

“Great entertainment and hosts!!!“

“We always reserve a table for lunch when we're in San Francisco. It never disappoints. Our server, Dhan (forgive me if I didn't get that right!!), was remarkable. Kind and funny, and very attentive to the food sensitivities in our group. We often start with a glass of champagne but this visit we changed it up with mocktails. The salads were delicious and the buttery lettuces were beautiful on the plate. My family went for Rotunda's famous warm chocolate chip cookies for dessert, but I ordered the strawberry sorbet, it tasted like fresh picked berries and was a blast of summer tho it was cool in the city. Plan ahead, they really can get booked up.“

“Good food, excellent service“

“This place is great!! Love the Lamb Chops or New York Steak, Bartender Christine top notch, Area Mgr. Samantha always treats me like gold. Mgr. Alexa Luv her so dedicated, Mgr Edgar always on top of things, Can't forget Bartender Alberto! Or Mgr. Gia“

“The best restaurant you’ve never been to in SF. Every time i have friends in town I take them here. Service is wonderful, food is delicious and well priced, atmosphere is cozy and vibey. Great selection of wine and vermouth. Probably my current favorite in the city. Cheers!“

“Fab bar with a great range of booze and really friendly and helpful staff. Took the time to discuss UK vs USA measures and jiggers with me - fascinating!“

“Amazing Owner, beautiful atmosphere and thee most delicious food. All around a 10/10!“

“The food was delish but the service was inconsistent. We were served by multiple ppl but were told Emily would be our services throughout the night we have saw her twice. The food was very well done. We got the burrata, the Caesar, the special anchovy toast, the cast iron chicken, branzino, and the fresh pasta carbonara with the shoe string potatoes and the Brussels sprouts. For dessert, we got the chocolate bar. All in all a great meal for a fair price. Would be back if in the area as it’s one of the nicer restaurants in Alameda“

“I was on vacation in San Francisco & my cousin recommended Kates Kitchen. We had breakfast there & the food was very tasty. I highly recommend stopping by Kate's for a bite to eat if you are in the area.“

“Loved loved the atmosphere and food“

“Wow. What a Great addition to the neighborhood. A lively pub with great American Classic menu items. Movies on the wall for kids. Live music. Back patio. Fantastic friendly and competent service. Great local beers. Best burger I’ve had in a long time (disclaimer: I live in Mexico now).“

“Lovely meal, beautiful in the plate and palate and attentive, but not intrusive, staff. The star left off for ambience is for the cold breeze that hit us every time the door opened and the (ahem) nonfunctioning toilet (which staff was alerted to and prepared to address).“

“Banana Foster French toast and their freshly squeezed orange juice.“

“Eat here once and you’re coming back. Eat here twice and you’re family. Best atmosphere in SF, incredible interesting wine list, service that is knowledgeable AND fun/grounded/ entertaining and the food, my god the food! This place just celebrated 23 years in business, they deserve At least 23 more!!!!“

“My husband and I love the melt! Shout out especially to Gabby and V. Gabby is always on top of her game, she even remembers our order when we pick up and happily gives our extra pickles and ranch:) V is always outstanding in her customer service, filling any request with a genuine smile.
The food is always fast, hot and delicious and never wavers since we started going often in during the summer!“
