30 Best American Restaurants near New Fairfield

“The food is AMAZING. Better than what you’d expect for bar food. The in house ranch is worth a mention by itself. It’s so good you’ll put it on everything. The fries are bomb. Wings great. Kids loved their tenders. Will be coming back again when in the area. We didn’t dine in. Took the food to go.“

“Wonderful atmosphere, very pleasant staff and great food!“

“My fiancé and I went here for dinner... WOW! We split our two entrees and ended with homemade tiramisu. (If you love coffee like me this will check every box). The Octoberfest Wienerschnitzel was incredible and flavorful. We loved how seasoned the burger was, and the cook was perfect. Overall, a truly satisfying meal and a new restaurant on our weekly rotation. Thank you, Putnam House!“

“Love the Sycamore drive-in! We started getting mostly car hop service when the pandemic hit but we’ve inside a few times before that. Staff is great, always friendly, food is great! We’ve tried many things on the menu, from hamburgers to breakfast sandwiches to salads and always good!“

“Great food and huge portions! can't wait to go back!“

“My husband and I tried Bora Restaurant for the first time last night. It was excellent!! The food was delicious, the decorations were beautiful, the atmosphere was warm and cozy, all of the staff that we encountered were young but surprisingly all so very well mannered, polite and very nice!! Our waiter was Alton, he did a wonderful job and always addressed my husband as Sir. We would definitely recommend this restaurant!!“

“This place served us DEEEELICIOUS food 😋 Offerings from Steaks, burgers, mac 'n cheese to delicious desserts . Very reasonably priced, nice atmosphere & friendly staff. Definitely coming back with friends 🍽“

“Manager very nice. Staff hard workers. Nice atmosphere“

“To start with, I love the thick menu! I love that they give the back stories on the local products/farms they use. And the plethora of options make certain that both my husband and I can find something we like no matter what we're in the mood for. It's also nice to go to a restaurant that has more than the same 6 things everybody else has and to know those items are made with locally sourced products. I can end with a cupcake made from scratch which also supports another small business instead of something premade from the same manufacturer everyone sources their desserts from. It's a win for me!“

“Hadn't been here in quite a while, but was beyond pleasantly surprised. The staff was super friendly and helpful, but also felt genuinely friendly. Everything was just fast. Drink and food came out before you thought they would (not in a bad way), and overall it was a great experience.“

“Johana's Restaurant: The saying is keep it simple, stupid. Well, Johana's does it amazingly well. Their menu is straightforward and uncomplicated, focusing on classic dishes made with high-quality ingredients. From their perfectly seasoned food to their cheese steak, every dish at Johana's Restaurant is executed with precision and care. The result is a dining experience that is consistently delicious and satisfying.“

“The food & the folks are outstanding. For YEARS!“

“The diner is nice. The food is above average. Not the best diner, food ever had, but not the worst either. The week staff was very helpful and friendly. Overall, a positive experience. Take a look at that lox and bagel sandwich! It was amazing!“

“Food was exceptional and our server Santiago was very friendly and knowledgeable. Great experience for us!!“

“The food is always amazing me and my family have been going here for around 3 years the staff are really friendly and very efficient! The restaurant itself is very small considering the large group of people that it holds. But is always clean! Overall recommend.

“Absolutely delicious food! Really cool place and some great people too! I couldn’t recommend this place more. Have to check it out!“

“We enjoyed our first visit to Clock Tower Grill last night with friends - a lot of great choices between the main menu and the seasonal menu. We all completely enjoyed our meals - apps, main, dessert and drinks (appreciated the NA choices too)! Everything looked great, tasted great and the service matched that! The chef/owner makes his way around the room too ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We had an amazing dining experience thanks to Amanda! She was incredibly kind, courteous, and patient, making us feel so welcome. Her attentiveness and professionalism stood out, and she truly made our evening special. Amanda is an exceptional waitress, and we hope to have her serve us again in the future. Kudos to her and the team!“

“What an amazing place for live music!! Sat at the end of the bar and watched an amazing Chris Cornell cover band. Bartenders were busy, but so polite and professional. I had wings and Philly Cheesesteak which were delicious. They have Captain Lawrence IPA on tap. Best mixed drink is a Smokey Manhattan! I live in Long Island, but will definitely venture back here again.“

“On October 27, 2024, as frequent patrons from Orange County, NY, we had the distinct pleasure of being served by a very special young lady, Amber S. Clearly possessing a very charming, sincere and genuine customer experience presentation, Amber established herself as exceptionally gifted, wonderful and very pleasant throughput the entire experience. Noticing one of the orders was overcookeed when she checked on us, she promptly had it replaced without question. Amber not only is an exemplary representative of The Cheesecake Factory, more impressively is her delightful, warm disposition, professionalism blended with personalized concern for assuring that all of her patrons enjoy a very fulfilling experience. Thank you Amber for all that you did, for sharing your very touching nature, most of all for being You.“

“From the call to order, thru pickup. Horrible. Lady Linda that answered the phone was rude as can be. Food was cold. The sauces are “in the bag”. Well that was a lie. Tried to run my card, and she kept jamming it into the machine. Never one apology, let’s make things right etc. been going here for years. But after tonight, my family and all the friends I’ve told, won’t either. Shame, this used to be the go to place where the old owners were there.“

“great food great staff great wine“

“Absolutely wonderful experience at our first time at Rebellion tonight!

A must visit! 5 🌟 all the way!!“
