50 Best American Restaurants near Odessa

“Friendly and fresh. Custard afterwards or take a cup to go. Butter burgers 🍔 crinkle 🍟 & a root beer, c’mon man; this is good stuff.“

“The food at GPeppers "G-Peps" tops all coming from a scratch kitchen for sandwiches, soups, salads, and their amazing appetizers! There is a reason that this establishment has been around for 20 years! My husband and I have been going to G-Peps since we moved to Odessa in 2022. The staff is always been friendly and they became to realize that we were regulars, however, ever since some of the original staff left, it it has been different. We were always used to the girls running around, making sure that everyone was serviced and had what they needed. I can't even tell you how many times I ever walked in there before the original staff left and there wasn't my glass of wine or my husband's beer and my son's chocolate milk already there within five minutes of walking in the door. I don't just speak for our family, but many of the families in our neighborhood truly miss Sarah, Bailey, and Ashley. They will always hold a special place in our 💞!“

“Every time I have dinner at Sacred Pepper, I try something new and never have I been disappointed. This time I tried the Pistachio Crusted Fried Brie with cranberry chutney, balsamic reduction and d toasted parmesan crostini and it was amazingly delicious and also a shareable plate. For dinner I had the Oak Grilled Norwegian Salmon with heirloom tomato salad, white wine butter sauce, and house-made orzo pasta with a side of the Caramelized Brussels Sprouts with Applewood bacon and a balsamic glaze. It was all excellent and very flavorful just as everything else has been in my 4 visits here. It's hard to even pick a favorite! Besides the great selection of shareable plates, entrees, sides, and drinks, the decor and ambience are stunning. Then add to that, my server Adam was exceptional, and he was very attentive, polite, respectful, courteous, patient, and he genuinely made me feel so welcomed and valued. He has made so many wonderful recommendations to me over my visits and has even gotten me to try many new things that have all been excellent.“

I’m a server at chilis and I truly like coming to places and seeing the difference in atmospheres ! My mother in law referred me to this place and I haven’t been able to get enough it ! I’m always trying something new and the servers here are always recommending new things! Just amazing ! Breanna was my waitress and was just so helpful! I love this whole place so much it’s insane !“

“The food was delicious and the restaurant is nice and the the waiter is awesome. Highly Recommended“

“We went here because the place we intended to go didn't open for 45 minutes and we didn't want to wait. Mother's was in same shopping center so without having to move the car, we decided to take a chance on an unknown. it turned out to be the BEST dining experience in every way you can judge. The food was magnificent-every dish was superior. our server (Spencer) was excellent- knowledgeable, personable, professional. my party of five loved everything about it. On a scale of 1 to 10, Mother's gets a 12 from me.“

“Excellent lunch, service fromRaven, atmosphere! Started with tasty mozzarella sticks. Loved the fried green tomato BLT on toasted sourdough bread. Husband loved the grouper sandwich and fries. Other 2 meals were reportedly Excellent: tacos and chicken wrap. Didn't think to take pictures when first served, so forgive the partly eaten food, especially the awesome carrot cake we asked for warmed up.“

“I enjoyed the Ahi Tuna and chips. Awesome. It was the best I ever had thanks to Danit our bartender for suggesting it.“

“Best food in the area. Recommend to any searching for an upscale dining experience“

“Great service. Our server was the sweetest. Thank you Applebee’s“

“We went to Clear Sky (Palm Harbor) on Dec 25th, for dinner. It was our 1st time. The restaurant is really nice. The hostess was very personable and sat us right away (we had a reservation). Our server was Brie and she was really friendly and welcoming. The menu had so many delicious sounding offerings, it was hard to choose! I decided on the brisket and my husband ordered the Salmon Oscar. Both were excellent! The brisket was very tender and flavorful, the garlic mashed potatoes were real and homemade and the portion was generous. My husband loved the salmon. The fish was cooked perfectly and it was a generous size, larger than many other restaurants. It came with jasmine rice, broccoli and asparagus. He did say the asparagus was "stocky" but the broccoli was perfect. Brie was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed the whole time we were there, without being intrusive. A very friendly man named Shaun came over to ask how everything was and we definitely sang the praises the whole experience deserved! He chatted with us for a few minutes and told us about all the locations and that they serve breakfast 7 days a week, which were planning on trying this weekend. So, on a scale of 1-10, we give Clear Sky Club Haus a 10! The food quality, portion size, varied menu and service, all excellent and the prices are good too. A lot of other restaurants in the same price range, fall short as far as the food quality and portions. We've definitely added it to our "favorites" list.“

“I always have a great experience at Culver’s! The customer service is consistently friendly, fast, and efficient. The staff always makes the visit enjoyable, and this time Tanner stood out by being especially pleasant, attentive, and welcoming. He made sure everything was right and provided excellent service from start to finish. It’s always a pleasure coming here, and I’ll definitely keep coming back!“

“Clean environment, friendly staff, great food.“

“My husband and I are regulars at the Citrus Park location and are never disappointed! Tasha in To-Go is phenomenal! Always smiling always professional, and always looking out for her customers. Tonight, she thought I made an error while ordering, because she knows me so well, that she actually called me to make sure my order was correct. I was blown away by how sweet of a gesture this was. I've never received that level of customer service before! 5 Stars! Thank you Tasha!“

“We hosted an event there, and they were very accommodating to everything we needed. they were great“

“If I could give 10 stars, I would. We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael's Grill cater our wedding, and they truly exceeded every expectation. Located in the heart of Carrollwood next to Tampa Wine Room, where we held our reception, they were the perfect fit for our celebration. Joe and his team did an exceptional job from start to finish. The food was outstanding, beautifully prepared, and served with such care. Our guests could not stop talking about it and kept going back for more. Several people told us they plan to come back and dine there, which says everything. We are so grateful for the incredible service and delicious food that helped make our wedding day so special. Highly recommend for both dining and catering your next event.“

“Farm to table doesn’t even cover how good and fresh this restaurant is! Everything from scratch which is unheard of nowadays. Great menu and drinks menu. Love the creole shrimp pasta and the #711. Amazing! Our server was great. Duke did a great job of explaining each dish and the why behind everything he recommended.“

“I can't say enough about how much I love this place! From the food to the service and personal attention..it's all really wonderful! 😍“

“I had a great experience at this Culver’s location! I placed a curbside order and accidentally forgot to remove the mayonnaise from my burger. I didn’t realize my mistake until I got home and opened my burger, so I called the store. A very kind employee named Remi looked up my order and confirmed that I hadn’t modified it, but she still went out of her way to fix my mistake!

I really appreciated her kindness and willingness to help, even though the mix-up was entirely my fault. Thanks to Remi, I ended up having a great dinner and an even better experience. Customer service like this deserves recognition!
Culver’s, you have a great employee in Remi 😊“

“Payton, our waitress was great. She gave us so much attention at our table, refilled our drinks, and was very welcoming. The manager Tony came to our table and asked us about how our food was and was also very nice. Definitely coming back!!!“

“highly recommend, very good eats“

“You know in this age of the cell phone people don't seem to get very excited anymore with the exception of the horse race track, the amount of yelling and excitement from the families tells me that the horse races are still king for a night out with the family. Lots of fun!“
