47 Best American Restaurants near San Antonio

“I can remember the best burger I ever had but today, the patty melt I had here topped that. This place has incredible burgers! My wife opted for a Cuban sandwich. She, too, thought it was the best she ever had and she grew up in Miami! We shared our praise with the waitress. We learned the owner makes her own pork and corned beef (for the Reuben) and has been doing it for 25 years! The Cuban bread is baked by a small local bakery. You’re not getting fresher materials.

I’m not one to leave such a glowing review because everyone will go there and the secret will be out. But seriously, if you want a great burger or Cuban, come here. Don’t let the outside worry you….that’s the disguise of good down home cooking!“

“Everything was fresh, flavorful and delicious. The restaurant was clean, bright and professional. Chef Jon’s personality was upbeat and excellent customer service. I loved the art work on his chalk board. I’ll definitely make the trip for lunch again when I’m in the area. Highly recommend the homemade Passionfruit juice and Jerk Chicken flatbread was tasty, the pineapples on top took it to another level.“

“Delicious! The food is 4-star and the service was on point. We had the pulled pork nachos that were so yummy. My daughter had the ribs, she's still talking about how tender they were and she’s 10. They know how to put some heat on the chicken too. 😋“

“Staff is pleasant and professional...I only put recommend because they block any negative reviews... We've been there twice is the last month and both times screwed my order up.. I asked for ketchup and mayo and they put ketchup and mustard (not a fan of mustard) but I ate it anyways.. Then today ordered cheese curds and instead got fries I hate fries, not sure how hard it can be it's even on the recipt, but we were already home and didn't feel like driving back... If you have a desire to go there check everything before you leave because obviously they can't get anything right“

“Another hidden gem in Zephyrhills. Nine of us went for the first time. We were all very happy with the food (it was nice and hot)and the service. Everybody got something different and everybody loved everything. Generous portions. Free drink and dessert with an entree. Almost unheard of. We will definitely be going back so we can try all the different things on the menu. We had a great server but unfortunately I did not get her name. She was on top of it and she made no mistakes with anybody's orders.“

“I love this IHOP. We frequently eat here. The staff know us by name and are always friendly even when it’s super busy. We eat breakfast here at 5x a week. Most times our drinks are on the table before we even walk in the door (they know our car!). Whitney, Tiffany, Noah, Leah (the singer), Diana, & Shaun are all great servers. The food is always delicious and fresh especially when Fernando, Tony, & Ron are cooking. And when Amanda’s helping the servers get their food out she rocks! If there’s ever an issue all we have to do is tell our server and they do everything they can to fix it. Love you guys! LuvM&C“
