50 Best American Restaurants near Prospect

“We ate here the first time this week. I had the BBQ Short Rib Melted Cheese. It was divine! We'll be back.“

“Nataz in Southington is a true gem! We had my company’s holiday party here mid-week during the day before they opened for regular dinner service and it was AMAZING! The setup was great for our group and the restaurant was decorated beautifully. We had two dedicated waitresses, Sara and Heather, who went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a drink upon sitting down and that everyone got their food in a timely manner. Both Sara and Heather were very polite and accommodating, even weaving in and out of our employees and Santa participating in a gift exchange. Special thank you to Chuck for setting everything up for us! The food was exceptional! From the grazing boards to the salads to the entrees and dessert, everything was flavorful and cooked/presented perfectly. If you are looking for a great local place with really good food, check out Nataz for your next event or dinner out with family/friends. You definitely will not be disappointed!“

“I love it !“

“Always a great experience with The Lab, from the way they treat you, to the final bite!“

“Great food, great service and the atmosphere is beautiful!!“

“Love the way they keep it old traditional style breakfast with amazing severs and fluffy pancakes and omelets! Never change, your restaurant is perfect just like it is. America is changing fast and I know I'm not the only one who appreciates and enjoys a bit of a homecooked meal from a genuine place.“

“It's been a while but everything was great as always and our waitress Jill is amazing!“

“Omg the best food. My favorite is the cherry teriyaki wings. Everything I have ordered was fantastic.“

“I LOVE this place, and my favoritest run back to order meal is their buffalo chicken salad, with medium heat! Dining in is comfortable, due to their friendly, family-like, and clean atmosphere, (always feeling welcomed and enjoyed, as if we received a personal invitation), and we'd enjoy every minute of our time spent there, and every bite of our food! Also, you should try their delicious steak hoagies and Buffalo chicken wings! Their entire menu is worth every penny spent!“

“We happened to come in on a busy night. Tina was our server. Her and the Manager were professional and handled the crowd with no problem. All our ice creams were perfect and it was still a pleasant environment even though every booth was full! Will definitely come back again“

“We stop there every weekend and have breakfast, the staff is very friendly and they know what we order as we sit“

“Excellent food.. great gluten free options! Placed an order for takeout today and received a surprise dessert! Little do you know, I ordered this meal for my mom who spent the entire day in the hospital with my grandma. Seeing this little extra treat after a very busy weekend just reminded me of why I love this restaurant. Thank you for being so good to your patrons. Will continue to recommend this restaurant to all. 🫶🏼“

“We have been to Uncommon many times and the food is always amazing and we have always had a great experience all around but I want to say we had the absolute best service here tonight so I wanted to thank our server Justin D. for an outstanding dining experience tonight. Justin was professional and has a really fun personality. Even though the restaurant was crazy busy we never had to ask for anything, Justin was just there anytime we needed anything. The support staff also did an amazing job tonight as well keeping the table clear of empty glasses and dishes and running food. Just an over all lovely experience.“

“jimmys food is excellent! however I was there for the 1st time last week, our waitress was not friendly with us. no personality, no smile..brought our food put it down walked away, said nothing. then 5 mins later, as she was walking by the table threw the receipt down, said nothing. Never came to see if we needed anything else or how the food was, she never offered desert, so we didn't get that. I had to go to the counter and ask for a box, as again she never came back to the table. there were only a few tables full, so she wasn't overly busy, meanwhile I'm watching the other waitress there, smile and laugh with her customers. I wish I knew her name, because she definitely needs to learn people skills. ohh I also heard her complaining to a customer who she must've known, about her training someone and now the other girl is waiting tables and she was not happy that this girl was doing her job basically 🙄“

“Always a pleasant staff….♥️“

“Just moved back to Oxford and really enjoy this eatery.“

“There's a good amount of parking in their lot that runs alongside the Farmington Trail. There's indoor and outdoor seating available. Inside is comfortable, with a diner atmosphere in a well maintained and clean restaurant. The food is very good with reasonable sized servings at good prices. Definitely will be back!“

“I hosted my husband’s surprise birthday party in the banquet room. We had over 50 people. It was a great night. The space was perfect, the food and service were awesome! Crystal was our point person and absolutely amazing but, the rest of the staff was excellent too. I highly recommend the Brookside Inn to anyone looking for a great and memorable event!“

“We had a birthday celebration in an Igloo outside tonight !2/10/24. Just 4 of us girls. What a nice time we had. Everything was perfect. Our meals were delicous and our waitress was wonderful. Her name is Heather. She worked so hard to make our night perfect. Thank you Heather!!!!!“

“It was great and the outside is beautiful the waiters great Kristen and Cody“

“The French toast is amazing!“

“We had the pleasure of dining at Flair tonight for dinner and were blown away. A beautiful, cozy atmosphere and the food and service there are beyond amazing. So many choices on the menu, we will certainly be back to try more of them!“

“We absolutely love this place! We have been twice. The second time was this week with my sister (visiting from England). They were very busy but got us seated fairly quickly. The manager asked if we were from England. We then realized that once we were seated, they were playing British hits over the speakers. It was such an awesome touch for us! The food was incredible. The cheese dip with the pretzel sticks is amazing. My sister thoroughly enjoyed the short rib grilled cheese, and the fish (fish and chips) was as close to home as we've gotten over here. I had the portobello wrap, which was delicious. They make a very yummy kids pudding as well, which our daughter loved. We will be back in the near future. I'm so glad this place is a part of our town ❤️“

“Great place to eat! Our go to for a great selection and good time.“

“If you’re in the valley area and you are looking for a good flavor grill chicken wrap or chili hotdogs this is the place to go !! You won’t be disappointed 💯💯“

“Just had our first meal here. The entire restaurant is filthy. Our dishes that held our silverware were reused. Our table was dirty To where we washed it with our drinking water. We were ready to leave but had put in our order and wanted to try food. The food Was decent but pricey for amount you got. Called manager over to show him how thick the dust was on ledge where everyone sits And eats. He said he was new. Not an excuse. Restaurant was empty now I know why. The whole place smells dirty as soon as you sit down and have to breathe in one spot. This restaurant will not last if things don't Change. It will be a repeat of Chips restaurant all over again.“

“This place is for sure a hidden gem...A small little mom & pop place that has been around a long time...They are open for breakfast & lunch...6a-2p mon-saturday & 6a-1p on Sunday. I had a grilled ham cheese and tomato and a cup of tomato soup...it was maybe 8 bucks and delicious...a value meal from McDonald's costs more...idk how they keep everything so affordable, but im glad they do...Give them a try...help keep this place going...“

“My husband son and I  went to the station for Valentine's Day! We went for an early dinner to beat the crowds which was nice. G Sitting in a booth close to the patio is not recommended as you smell cigars your entire dinner. Although the drink special was too sweet and didn't care for it my chicken franchise was delicious! Our son got the chicken fingers and fries -  they should probably give more than two chicken fingers for kids and also an option for a side like a vegetable.“

“Awesome beautiful location cam also do catering parties or events. Great service good food. Will visit again.“

“The supervisor Derick is very friendly & has lots of patience he always gets my order done correctly with no delay…“

“The best bondsman in the state, been in Buisness for 30 plus years and is always ready to help when ever your in need. The office is located across the street from Waterbury Police Station! They have agents in Litchfield county also! Call for questions, quotes, and for fast service. Definitely the most professional! Like, share, and comment. Call now for assistance with your legal troubles!!!“

“I've had the pleasure of going to Meet Me Here several times over the past year. It's a small, intimate atmosphere with great food and an excellent staff. (Sherrie and Kristen are really great) I've also gotten to know some of their regular customers, making dining here that much more fun and personable. Make a reservation and enjoy a nice dinner out.“

“We tried the pepperoni pizza last night. It was good.“

“I ordered a filled bagel and a cupcake. The service was very friendly and warm, and quick though there was quite a queue. The bagel was excellent, great taste, with a small side salad. The cupcake was really moist and beautiful, the buttercream very creamy, and tasty all-in-all, though very sugary! I would recommend this place for the excellent bagels and kind service, and the cupcakes for the ones with a sweet tooth. Maybe an idea for the future to have some sweet products that don't pack quite as much sugar, but I'm definitely coming back for another bagel!“

“Always an amazing experience! We went last night for dinner - delicious. Gabby, our server, was friendly, knowledgeable, full of spunk and attentive. We will be back“

“Quaint Waterbury tavern with the best owner in town. All the bartenders are pleasant, professional, and accommodating. The history if Wzterbury is embedded in the walls of this iconic bar. Must visit place if you are passing through Waterbury.“

“The best Grilled Chicken “Panino” I have ever had!! Flavors were delicious. A light sandwich that didn’t make you feel like a load after you ate it. The bread was soft and fluffy. The chicken was cooked perfect. Just a great sandwich!! Couldn’t out it down once I took a bite so the picture is after I inhaled it ☺️“

“This place has the BEST mac & cheese!! So much so that it was my first pregnancy craving last year. 😂 super creamy, flavorful, and a huge portion that lasts me at least 2 meals!!“

“We had a fun time celebrated a friend birthday! We really enjoyed the competition game. Food was delicious! Would definitely recommend it for a group outing“

“Stumbled in randomly and it’s our new favorite! Excellent food, service and vibe!! 🥂“

“I was given a Groupon as a gift to go here and was pleasantly pleased! Our waitress was so attentive and everything form the Bread (with soft butter! I hate when it is still hard it was perfect!) the salad was very fresh and we both chose the Chicken Cacciatore which was so good! The place is cute and very clean! We look forward to go back and try something else! I saw the Nachos on someone else's table and they looked really good!!! Thank You!!!!“

“Great vibe there. Waitresses and Bartenders are amazing!“

“Our order: 1st plate: sausage & 2 eggs toast & 1 pancake 2nd plate: omelette with green peppers; tomateo & cheese ( no toast or meat) 1 pancake ---1 cup of coffee each!! COST: $33.34! Outrageous! The young waitress forgot to put in for 1 pancake as partner requested a little late but she completely forgot altogether & then told us it was almost done, should have admitted dde forgot to put in for it! Then she never came back to get us a 2nd cup of coffee. Busy at times but it only takes 10 seconds to pour coffee & the mugs are extremely small! Seems she catered to larger tables (bigger tips)! Way too expensive for the poor service. Prices on menu online are not updated“

“The food was very good and it didn't take long to come out of the kitchen. The price was within range of what we expected. Once we got the servers attention the service was good. We should note that she had another room to take care of as well as us.“

“Outstanding restaurant! (and we do a lot of our dining in NYC!) Local 63 is an oasis in Watertown, CT in a variety of ways. The food is creative (even when the dish SOUNDS traditional). The chicken fried steak (hard to even find in New England) is outstanding. The salads were awesome: perfectly dressed with great crunch and freshness. The Cassoulet (originally a French farmhouse dish) with chicken, in-house sausage, and white beans cooked to perfection is something you will not find in many other places. Great bar--friendly atmosphere and great for large groups and celebrations. This is a hidden gem with excellent service and owners who obviously care! I will go back and bring many other guests here when I have a chance.“

“I highly recommend you all come out . The food is absolutely amazing staff so friendly it’s a family like atmosphere. They have a beautiful area to sit down to eat . This is my weekly spot“

“The work for this place is great great food great staff from the chef to the the waitress they are all such great people family rock never ate nothing I didn't like never had to wait on nothing very fast very polite ways taking food home it like if I order something I could eat off it all day sometimes the next day summer coming nicecday they have the patio and ask the chef will make it your way out of 5 stars if I could I give 10 it a,must try and take my word you will be back.“
