47 Best American Restaurants in Delray Beach

“Nice atmosphere, good food and drinks, but absolutely horrendous, and i mean, horrendous, service. Likely the worst ive had in south florida. I refuse to go back. Every step of the experience was painstakingly slow“

“We had a lovely dinner tonight and the highlight of our meal was our wonderful server Michael. Michael was so personable, knowledgable of the menu and and provided overall amazing service. We had one small hiccup with our meal and Michael could not have handled it better. He took care of the issue promptly. Our meal was delicous and the drinks were great too!“

“We took my father here for his 80th birthday brunch last Sunday (he loves a good whiskey drink). We sat on the patio. Gary our server was fantastic! And the manager/owner even made it a point to stop by our table and wish my father a happy birthday. We really appreciate how special you guys made him feel! Thank you so much. 💗“

“I went to Deck 84 yesterday with my husband and two kids. We had a great experience! Our server, Sarah, was awesome and knowledgeable about the menu. She made our lunch really special and was so kind to our whole family! The manager Lauren, also came by to check on us, which is always appreciated.
Great service, food and atmosphere! Highly recommend! Thank you, Sarah!“

“New favorite spot, food is fantastic, people and vibe are great as well. I heard they had the best wings around.....confirmed! Hands down some of the best wings I've ever had. Been back and they're consistent. Everything else I've had has been awesome, but holy cow the wings are epic“

“The food here is fantastic! So is the service generally. Just a shame about the host / manager who was either having a bad day or has serious attitude.
The wine selection is on the higher side, which is a bit annoying, but overall we had a good experience.“

“We’ve been here a few times for numerous reasons/visits. Their HH menu is small but food is delicious and drinks that are on it are good. The bar is beautiful so fun to sit at. Dinner food is also very good. Venue is huge so comfortable seating options wherever you go. We had our baby shower which had amazing food, drinks and service.. the guests were all thrilled! Corey the manager is incredible. The server Laura is also amazing. I forget the names of the event servers but they were incredible also. Overall, great spot!“

“Awesome service! Great atmosphere! Amazing Food!“

“What a great find! Julie was so friendly and helpful. I had the duck which had been recommended by friends. Absolutely amazing! It's a very small restaurant, so definitely make reservations. Just fabulous!“

“Avalon is a must! Beautiful atmosphere and the bar manager was awesome! 🥂🥂“

“Food is amazing, thanks to the chef. Beef tenderloin was delicious with great flavors. Pizza was perfect for someone loving New York style pizza. Staff was always fantastic, Jessica, Kelly, Makayla. John the manager really cares about people and food. Also, open to suggestions. Thanks for making our stay at the opal grand great.“

“Food is great. Drinks are awesome. What is missing is hospitality in service quality. No eye contacts from the server at all. They won't make any gesture to care for your table. A little careless environment as far as serving goes. Everything else is superb but you would love to be served when you dine in especially repeatedly. They don't dare to care.“

“Very noisy and crowded but the best Cuban food. Best to get there at 5:30. Outside is too close to the street, noisy there too.“

“I enjoy the atmosphere and the excellent food along with cocktails“

“So Big and Fresh. The BEST I've had since my trip to Maine last summer! Worth Every Cent!“

“Food absolutely delicious. Service fantastic!!“

“The food is always delicious and creative!“

“Nice evening at Chez Henry. We all had the Thursday special (turkey dinner). Hearty and plentiful. Was a nice night for some comfort food. The service was good and the drinks were good pours. Don't know if this restaurant is a cut above the ordinary, since everyone out party of 4 ordered the same thing and it is hard to judge based on that. Prices were reasonable. Not crowded and noise level was good. May give it another try this season.“

“Love their ribs & burgers & salads & cocktails! Highly recommended! Always bring the family when in town & they always look forward to our meal. Great, friendly & competent service.“

“This place is proof that even on a bougie address like Atlantic Ave in Delray can support a dive bar. The atmosphere is dressed down, as are the staff. The food is pub fare, but elevated with touches like pickled red onions and grill toasted buns. The value is amazing, and the portions are respectable. I normally avoid the Ave due to traffic and cost, but Johnnie brings me back time and again.

Oh, and live music is a big draw.“

“Friendly and attentive staff.“

“Been to the "Turtle" many, many times for a few years now. Same experience every time. Great owner, great bartenders, great patrons & delicious food. I recommend everyone stop in and check it out.“

“Hot new spot, great atmosphere, food, service, and drinks. Shout out to Nick, best server EVER,“

“I had a great experience at this establishment. The service was quick and efficient, and the overall atmosphere was clean, lively, and welcoming with great music playing in the background. CJ provided excellent service—he was knowledgeable about the menu and answered questions with ease, making the ordering process smooth and enjoyable. The food was served fresh and met all expectations. I truly appreciated the professionalism and would definitely return. The best one yet !!“

“Food is always delicious and the service is great“

“I am a die hard fan of Mariannes. They're closed for the summer and you can't request sandwiches after 2pm but never will I not jump at the chance to get me a Turkey Club on rye. The staff is great and friendly, the food is fresh and delicious, and it makes me so happy just being inside the tiny store. Forget Joseph's and head to Marianne's“

“Great music and atmosphere. Food is great!“

“My Mom lives in Delray and we brought her here for drinks before her birthday on a Friday evening in February. It was awesome. Amazing views, cool rooftop bar area, great live yacht rock singer (Jamie!) taking requests. Bethany, the manager made sure that my Mom was celebrated - and we were only there for about an hour and half. I hesitate to share this review because I fear it will become too popular, but for the time being it is a hidden gem near the beach!“

“My wife and I went for our anniversary dinner. We had a great time the food was cook to order. Our server Vivian did a great job. She made sure we had everything we needed and that the food was cooked to our liking. Definately recommend for dinner.“

“Nicholas was our waiter and he was the Best! 😊👍🏾Accommodated us very well and we have a great time with a oceanic view of Delray Beach.“

“Great hot pastrami and potato pancakes“

“A good experience and great food. Attentive wait staff, the food was served quickly as was still steaming hot! A+ to our waitress, right on top of everything. The pub burger is my favorite so far, and don't miss out on the tower of onion rings!“

“Took my dad here for Father’s Day brunch and it everything was fantastic even food was delicious.“

“Four at a booth at the Delray Beach Florida location for 5PM Dinner. Hostess Jill was exemplary; terrific personality along with her welcoming smile. Gracious and kind to our two elderly parents. The appetizers and meal were good. Worth the price. A small mixup on one of the side veggies was no big deal. Our waiter Erik was adequate. Should have done a better job clearing the dirty dishes from the table when we completed our meals, and never offered to refill our water glasses. This was reflected in his tip. Would have given 5 stars if not for this.“

“Me encanta es súper para pasar momentos felices“

“We went to Ohio with our three boys and my husband, our waiter was Joe, Joe was amazing he came to my table several time after passing by from taking care of other guest and had a Joke for my kids, my kids laughed and enjoyed there dinner Joe was amazing!!“

“Our experience was awesome!!! Not only was the EPIC: Elvis Presley In Concert movies phenomenal, but we had an opportunity to chat with GM Santino Amador who shared information about this incredible theater in Delray Beach! Really comfortable seating, great dining, and amazing sound in the IMAX theater. Highly recommend!!“
