50 Best American Restaurants near Alafaya

“We always had a enjoy ihop in Vernon hill last time we went the waitress name Ramon was very attentive and respectful with taking our order absolutely recommended“

“We had a wonderful dinner at Maxine's on Shine during Magical Dining. Our server, Mara, was attentive and friendly from start to finish. Maxine and Mr. Maxine also stopped by our table to chat, and that personal touch made the evening feel special.

The Passion Star cocktail had a memorable presentation, and it wasn't watered down with ice like so many restaurant drinks are. It tasted the way it should from the first sip to the last.

For appetizers, we shared the nachos and the Smoked Salmon & Avocado Cream with naan toast and mixed greens. Both were fresh and flavorful. For my main course I had the Wagyu Filet of Sirloin Au Poivre, and it was tender and perfectly seasoned, with a peppercorn sauce I'd order again. My dining companion had the lobster ravioli with shrimp and loved every bite. We finished with the red velvet cheesecake and the chocolate mousse, both a great ending.

We thoroughly enjoyed everything, from the food to the service to the atmosphere. Highly recommend, and we'll be back!“

“What a wonderful dining experience my family had at Metro Diner. The food was so amazing and the portions were very large, but what topped off our experience wonderfully was our waitress Karen. She was very pleasant personable and made us feel like we were old friends that came to visit. Karen was so helpful and attentive to our needs and she even threw in some good ol’ humor to make us laugh. Thank you again for your service and we look forward to seeing you again! Dale L.“

“We had an amazing time at Keg Social Orlando celebrating a birthday! We enjoyed bowling, axe throwing, and the arcade, which provided hours of fun. The venue offers something for everyone, regardless of age—our group ranged from 11 to 41 years old, and everyone had a blast. The food and drinks from the bar were fresh and delicious, and the DJ kept the party atmosphere lively. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making our experience even better. Highly recommend for a fun and memorable outing for all ages!“

“Ordered Bolay for lunch through the app and was so excited to find a free Bol coupon in my rewards! Ordering was super simple and straightforward and the ready time was super fast, under 15 minutes! Since this was during the workday, I needed to be able to get there and back with my food quickly to fit into my 30 minute lunch break! I was thrilled when I walked in and my order was all ready, packaged with napkins and my silverware and still warm! It was delicious too! Great option for a healthy and fast meal!“

They cheered me up with a free cookie and a free bowl. I was so happy I will do anything in my power to protect them. They are the hardest workers. I know always having a smile on your face never complaining always satisfying. The customer having no complaints. I truly believe there are two hardest workers I’ve ever met in my life and they deserve the rockstar pineapple of the month.“

“The BEST! If you are looking for the best of everything in a dining experience, look no further then Marlow's Tavern. A true gem! When you walk in, it's too a sparkling clean dining area, with a coziness that envelopes you in comfort with deep colors, and the a/c is just right, the background music is just right, and the hostess finds you a nice corner that accommodates a mobility scooter and the other 3 in your family are comfortably seated in a wrap around booth. The table is not attached to the floor so that even larger members of your party, can be comfortable. Our waiter, Mario was top notch right from the start, explaining to us how the restaurant is a cut above a typical restaurant by making everything from scratch the food and the drinks (even the drink juices and mixers are all made fresh in house) We wanted a tropical drink that was not in the menu, they made us exactly what we were looking for! Then the chef came out to personally greet us and welcome us even providing us with a surprise that made us feel like VIP's. Our waiter described a few of his own favorite dishes. And answered our questions and advised us on the menu to meet our specific tastes along the way. Then came the food!!! We ordered a crab dip with buttered saltines, shrimp and grits, a lump crab salad, prime rib french dip, and asparagus fries. We LOVED every single bite(and ate every single bite, stopping just short of licking the plates) The BEST of everything, each forkful a delight and the best we have ever had! I mean the best crab dip. The best shrimp and grits( 2 members of our party mentioned that they were going to share, it was plated perfectly on two plates, with more shrimp on 1/2 the order then we had ever seen on a full order! The shrimp were succulent, firm, tasty and cooked to perfection.) The prime rib was cooked exactly as it should be and so tender it just melted in your mouth. Asparagus fries we almost fought over, a nice twist on one of our favorite veggies. The food was so good we even had to get 2 desserts to go(we were to full to eat more but it was so good!) that we wanted to try the desserts. As we were leaving, some live music started playing. Our only regret is this was only a quick stop for us before heading out on a cruise. We would have loved to be able to try everything on the menu, it was a difficult decision to decide on just one appetizer and one entree. Go and ENJOY THE BEST!!!“

“EVERYTHING I have ever tried here is amazing! First experience was Thanksgiving for a party of 8. We literally got one of everything off the menu and let’s just say zero left overs! The empanadas are OUT OF THIS WORLD! The drink menu is Astrology themed and if you are into space/ astronauts the decor will excite you! There is even a couple selfie photo spots that are space themed. Desserts are TRULY special get the super nova it’s a whole experience! You will not be dissatisfied at all Truly a favorite spot!“

“This place was stunning, the food was beyond amazing. The service was impeccable, they explained every dish, where it was sourced and they mindfulness behind the preparation. This is a wonderful experience in Orlando, 10/10 recommended.“

“First time at Milkhouse and we were pleasantly surprised it had a little bit of everything. HH menu, beers for the husband, sliders, Cuban, & delicious ice cream for me! If it wasn't dinner, I would've gotten coffee too 😊 The real star of the show was our server, Hector, who was so kind and just a pleasure to be around. Hector, thanks for making our first experience so wonderful and being so kind to us! Cheers!“

“What an amazing experience at The Stubborn Mule! The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and the service was outstanding.

A special shoutout to Seven, our server and bartender, who was wonderful, friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Seven really made our visit extra special!

The pork belly was incredible, and the hamburgers were absolutely delicious, definitely must-try dishes! 🍔🥓

“The two times I went to BurgerFi on my trip to Florida was an amazing experience! It was the best burger place ever! The service was amazing and very friendly! I got the yes chef burger, and those caramelized onions were the best coming off an eight hour flight and eat. Their sauce was delicious. Best sauce I’ve ever had. I then got the Oreo shake and I must say that was the best Oreo shake I’ve ever had; nice and creamy with Oreos and sprinkles was very good. Definitely 100 out of 10 would recommend. burgerFi needs to expand all over the US!“

“Because we started are day late, it felt as though the noise level was over the top. But once. We got our drinks, we joined the festive conversations. The food was excellent. We will bring friends and family to this restaurant and request orders for home. A+++“

“Amazing experience. It was our first time there for lunch and everyone was very nice. The onion rings are to die for. I had one of the new bowls and it hit the spot!
