50 Best American Restaurants near Parrish

“First time in last night. Mindi our server was by far one of the best hospitality professionals I have had the pleasure of being served by. She was top notch. She explained the menu in detail . We had oysters to start as a recommendation. Then the steaks she pointed out were amazing and cooked perfectly!! By far one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had since moving here“

“My sisters and I had lunch here and we were very happy with everything. Staff was extremely nice, the portion of the food was plenty and tasted great. Prices were really good too. We will definitely return to this restaurant.“

“For me, good place to visit sporadically. Not really a place I would go regularly. Their menu is more eclectic and leaning trendy than traditional. Good for when you're feeling curious and are ok with experimenting with your breakfast, or when you're feeling like mixing up your traditional dishes with kale or avocado whatevers. Prices are on the somewhat higher side but nothing that would break the bank.“

“If you have never tried the Dubliner meal it's fantantic.. beer is cold,staff is great ..lots of tv's for sports ...“

“We just moved down here from Michigan and let me tell ya...we were super happy with the food, service, and atmosphere! DEFINITELY OUR GO TO FOR EATS! Super excited your just down the road from us and the remodel looks FANTASTIC! We had the pleasure of meeting Andy the owner and just a really nice person! THANKS AGAIN FOR A GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!🙂“

“We have always liked coming to Cracker Barrell. Food is always what you expect, good and comforting! Our server Casey went above and beyond today. She was a delight! She was very attentive without being overbearing. She made nice small talk without holding us up or dragging anything out.“

“Stopped by with my grown son for a late lunch & really enjoyed the food & service. Had their special- pulled pork sandwich, one side (fries)and a drink. Reasonably priced. We’ll be back.“

“My wife and I came to the Ellenton area on our honeymoon. Her local family reccomended we check out Woodys River Roo. It was our first stop and the only repeat stop during our week down here. We went to "The Roo" on three separate occasions and loved each one. The food was great, the view of the manatee river was very nice, but the friendly hardworking staff was the cherry on top. They all really seemed to love each other and worked together like a well oiled machine. They made us feel right at home and made sure everything was just right. Bar tender Johnny, who I belive said had been employed there for 15 years, reccomended a lot of other great places to drink and dine in the area. They also have a gift shop and live entertainment from, music to trivia 7 days a week! 10 out of 10 would reccomend. My wife and I hope to be back sooner than later!“

“On 08-03-2025 I ate at the Sonny's restaurant at 631 67th St Cir E in Bradenton, FL. This is a family-style BBQ restaurant with a very comfortable and welcoming ambiance. I arrived for dinner and was promptly seated. I had their Big Deal Turkey on a bun with fries, a side order of baked beans, and an unsweet tea. My food arrived in a timely manner and was cooked properly. It came exactly as I ordered it and was very tasty. A variety of sauces were available, and I selected the Sweet sauce. My server during my visit was Danielle. She was very efficient, kept my tea glass filled, and responded to any and all requests I had. I have had Danielle for a server several times before, and I consistently receive superior service from her. She is always friendly and courteous and takes a genuine interest in her customers, making sure that they have a positive dining experience. She is a credit and an asset to the business. I recommend this restaurant and will be returning there again to eat.“

“56 of us stopped in for breakfast Saturday Feb 12th. They sat everyone immediately with no problems. The waitstaff was really fast , professional and attentive. Our server didn’t miss beat. Even with so many people ordering at the same time. I sat with a group of ten and everyone’s order was spot on and delicious. I highly recommend you visit Popis!“

“I finally discovered a little slice of Hungarian paradise in Florida! From authentic wines and refreshing Hungarian beer to perfectly seasoned dishes and heavenly desserts, every bite and sip feels like home. Truly unforgettable!“

“I love it , Country style🥰“

“Was there tonight when my family and I witnessed an incident in the parking lot. Management was quick to rush in as well and even gave a discount on our bill bc we jumped up to assist when we saw what happened. We’ve always had great food and service there and tonight was no exception. Well done!“

“First place we stopped on our trip was a gem! Amazing food, wonderful service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great staff ! Very friendly! I love the croissant, egg, sausage, and cheese sandwich. The food is delicious ☀️🌴🥰“

“Well it finally happened to me,
(Again lol) at Applebees, Stacey and I went for some $.50 boneless wings,(MMMMM) we ordered 10 each and split a fry,
The bill was $40. Plus $, I went back to my email ( I used to love Applebees, still like), anyway the 10 wings were to be $5, it was 13.99 x 2 now add a fry and 1 soft drink, what should have been around $20, the killer was our server saw my email when we were ordering and never said that price for online ordering and pick up. I think I really should have spoke up but once I found the fine print, I just said for get it and it was over &50 with the tip.
Dear Applebees we used to come at least twice a month for years for $6.99 burger Monday right around the corner from our house, the little things are what customers like and remember,
if I’d known I would have had a much nice meal for the same money, instead of the wings for almost 3 x the price I read. Come on big companies.
Note!
Fact; Sometimes you want to go

Where everybody knows your name,

“The best burger joint around. They have a great staff of awesome workers that do the job right!!! I’d recommend this to everyone. Right of 64 in a beautiful surroundings. Place is a 5 star for this type of restaurant. Everything on menu is made fresh and it’s so good. I’ve never rated a fast food restaurant but this one is way above the others. Great food, clean, great staff, prices are in line with the food. It’s excellent. The fries and onion rings, cheese curds!!!! Haha it’s ok to have, treat yourself and family. This is the best location in my opinion. It’s east of 75. Worth the extra 5-10 minute drive. Thats my take on this all American classic. Just GREAT!“

“Okay so we have been to multiple Applebee's and every time we've been very disappointed. We've experienced dry food, stuff in our food that didn't belong, bad service, you name it. We had a gift card today and we came to this one thinking that we'll at least get cheaper meal and compared to fast food. However, we arrived and we were the first ones as they opened up for the day apparently, but the service was really good. Not only was the surface good, the food was fantastic! This place prepared their food with love I believe, and they are fighting a stigma that apparently is going around about Applebee's. The food was very delicious, and we got the two for 25 deal that we were able to pick an appetizer. So we got the wonton cheeseburger tacos, and holy cow. Were they crunchy and delicious! I got a Swiss burger which was probably one of the best burgers I've ever eaten at a restaurant, and my wife got a chicken fettuccine alfredo and holy cow did. Was it packed with flavor and the chicken was not dry. The kids of course got kids meals and they said they were very delicious. If we ever go to another Applebee's again, it will not be any other one than this one!“

“Breakfast and lunch was excellent.“

“They have the best food. My daughter who lives in Arizona where there are so many Mexican restaurants says she misses S & S tacos and hot sauce. I have to agree with her. I love the enchiladas and their hot sauce. Stella whom works there is the best!!!!!!! She is like family. The cook who works with her is great also. This is a small business. Please support them.“

“The best chicken I have ever eaten in my life. Wife and I will definitely eat there again. Highly recommended“

“We go there both Tue and Wed happy hours and have the specials on the menu.. The food is normally good and inexpensive but this last Wed the wings were over cooked to a point you couldn'eat them. I complained to the bartender who was new (no uniform) who didn't seem interested. But that being said, Ed's is a great place although crowded at times.“
