50 Best American Restaurants near Johns Creek

“Great quality burguers, we tried the Factory and it was delicious. The price is fair and the portions are big.“

“We recently dined here for dinner after finding this place on Instagram. I can’t believe it took us four years to find this place and it was right around the corner. It was a Friday night and we didn’t need a reservation. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The chef even came from the kitchen to check on everybody dining in the establishment. I highly recommend the fried shrimp, fried Lobster, cheese grits, the Mac & cheese, fried chicken entree, the appetizer chicken wings. and all of the salad options. All of the food was high-quality and you can tell that stuff was made fresh with no shortcuts (NO CANs at the establishment). This is rare to find these days in this economy. The food will take some time to come, but that is because everything is prepared fresh so greatness takes time and it is well worth the wait. Trust me. Everything was very tasty on the menu and we will definitely return. This is a perfect place if you want some soul food in the Roswell/Alpharetta/John’s Creek area and there’s plenty of upfront parking. This is a family, friendly establishment and they welcome everyone. I highly recommend coming here and we will definitely be returning soon. Thank you for the tasty high quality dinner!“

“Stones is one of our all time favorites. We have known the owner for many years and he cares a great deal for his restaurant, staff, and customers. Food and cocktails are outstanding. Burger is the best around. It’s so nice to have a restaurant in the area that isn’t a chain and holds a certain standard.“

“Great staff! Our waiter Bobby was the best!“

“I joined a friend here recently. I haven't actually dined in to a First Watch in years. It was so nice! The hostess was sweet. The menu was much like I remember it. The ambiance was warm and welcoming. My favorite entree is the avocado toast! I swear they sprinkle a lil extra love on top. Overall, great experience and can't wait to visit again! #ashsaidit“

“Last night, my mom and I stopped by here before checking into our hotel, just to relax a bit before her big surgery. I usually don't go to Cholos, but I'm so glad I did this time! Our server Nevada was incredibly kind, patient, and warm, making us feel right at home. Juan truly went above and beyond, always checking to see if we were okay and bringing such a friendly, inviting vibe. Thank you both for turning a nervous night into a calm and enjoyable experience.“

“Portions are huge, food is reasonably priced, the sangria was perfect! Friendly staff, good recommendations, would definitely come again just felt bad we didn't have the stomach to order a full meal. Baked sweet potato and the side caesar salad were quite filling 😋 👌“

“Miss Rayne was amazing … kept our coffee cups full. Mr. Stephen cooked a great ham and cheese omelette. The facility was remarkably clean.

This is now our favorite Waffle House in the John’s Creek area.

Visited on 10/20/24.“

“Great friendly service. 🥇“

“The bbq shrimp is amazing! There wasn’t anything left on anyone’s plate! Service is always stellar!“

“Went for birthday dinners for two couples. Sat outside which was wonderfully quiet. Service was excellent and accommodating to specific requests. Sweet potato shrimp fritters were awesome. Deviled eggs were good. Caesar and spinach salads very fresh. Two of us had the pork chop, which was excellent. Meatloaf was sliced and grilled by request. Signature old fashioned cocktail made not too sweet by request. Complementary desserts for both birthday boys provided. “

“My first time at Lazy Dog was a treat!! The staff was very friendly and Frank especially was so great to my party & I, making sure we were okay & had everything we needed! Truly was a great experience thanks to Frank and we appreciate the professionalism & kindness! Will be back!“

“I was blown away with the quality of the food and cocktail I had 🤯 Amazing! This place deserves to be way busier than it was when I went in there“

“I went to see the show for my very first time and the experience was absolutely amazing. The staff was super friendly and helpful. It was clean and well organized. They had several different options for souvenirs. They offered a bar selection and brought everything right to you. You even get to keep the glass. The show was amazing and kept my attention. At the end of the show the King and Queen even came out and took pictures with us. I definitely recommend Medieval Times for a family, and friends.“

“The food was excellent. The service was outstanding. Steven our waiter did a fantastic job.“

“The food definitely lives up to everything great that I’d read & seen on Facebook! The fried chicken was AMAZING, and so much food. LOVE that gravy! My husband seriously loved his shrimp and grits. It was my birthday, and the waiter brought me crème brûlée that we shared….YUM!! Best friendly waiter, and great atmosphere.“

“Great service Thomas is the best server and has outstanding manners!“

“We visited on Mother’s Day, and everything was fantastic from start to finish. We started with the crab dip, bacon-wrapped scallops, and calamari. The scallops were the absolute showstopper.

For our entrees, I had the prime rib, which was incredibly tender and honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. The rest of our group ordered the Chicken Marsala, fish tacos, and burgers, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals.

The food, great service, and overall experience made for a wonderful Mother’s Day celebration. We’ll definitely be returning and look forward to trying more of the menu!“

“My friends and I recently attended the Low Country Boil on Sunday the 21st; it was fabulous!! The food was so tasty and plentiful, as the staff were so attentive and kind. We had a most wonderful afternoon! Great job Milton’s and Staff!! Tina“

“Great vibe. Good food. Perfect for a date night“

“So let me start by saying I frequented this location, like probably 3-4 times a month during my lunch break.

I always went to the bar, so much so they began recognizing me. I convinced my coworker to come and he joined me a number of times.

Fabiola (apologies if I misspelled your name darling) is by far one of the best bartender/servers I've had in my entire 32 years of living. She not only remembers that I'm vegan and grabs the vegan menu as soon as I walk up she greets me with such joy and warmth that the one day I didn't see her my heart broke a little. Gerald (I think his name is) is also such a sweet soul, he came onboard not too long ago and also began greeting me with the same warmth as Fabiola.

Fabiola makes a mean (and when I say mean I mean DELICIOUS) sangria. I mean those sangrias need to be renamed Fabiolas they are so good.

The tomato flatbreads to die for, brussel sprouts snatch a wig, the avocado toast beats California avocado toast (trust me I lived out there for 3 years), and again those sangrias no one will ever beat a Fabiola sangria, I'd bet $1,000 on it haha. On my latest visit I tried the corn flatbread and it was also delicious. Mind you these are all being made vegan style, so I can only imagine the flavor depth if you get them as they're on the menu/non-vegan style.

Unfornately, my office is moving to the other side of the perimeter so my frequent bi-weekly visits will likely become sporadic weekend pop-ins, but my gosh the Seasons 52 in Dunwoody (especially the bar) is definitely top 3 in my favorite restaurants.“

“Nice 👍 in the inside Good wings“

“We celebrated my dad’s 70th birthday today and the food was fantastic! Our server was AMAZING. I forget her name but she handled our table of 16 like a champ! Wonderful experience today!“

“A great restaurant that is aptly named because it really does have SOUL and is a good citizen of Alpharetta !“

“My friend enjoyed the food for her birthday“

“My wife and I found this spot today for Sunday Brunch and it was fantastic! I had the Short Rib Hash and my wife had the Salmon Benedict. A fabulous cocktail and Creme Brulee for dessert. Service was also great!“

“Great experience! My wife and I were early for our reservation and the host team did an amazing job getting us seated early. Food was great (chili dog), large portion of fries, and my drink was amazing- cotton candy bar drink. Thanks for a great night!“

“Great Gwinnett 1818 Club is the best“

“Food is really good, fresh seafood, hot food, seasoned well. The place is clean. I just left there a few hours ago for the first time and definitely will be back. A must try!“

“I love the food and service. Our waitress took great care of us and the kids. The bar drinks were delicious. I loved the French dip sandwich and the French onion soup. Will definitely go back.“

“This place is excellent! The service is outstanding, and the food quality truly stands out. I’ve tried wings, burgers, and fried rice from many different places, and these were among the best—flavorful without being oily.
The chicken wings are especially impressive: very fresh (they use fresh wings, not frozen), perfectly cooked, and well-balanced—not overly salty or over-fried. They’re tender, flavorful, and done just right.
Highly recommended!!!!!“

“This morning was my first time dining at Flavor Rich, but it surely will not be the last! A+ customer service and the food was good!“

“We are so excited that the Covington location at the Town Center is now open!!! The WNB food truck catered our daughter’s graduation party in May. We’re so glad to have a brick & mortar location in Covington!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“Love it, great food & outstanding breakfast“

“Had a birthday party here and loved it! The bartender Jesse was fantastic!!! Great atmosphere and music. Highly recommend this“

“I can’t say enough about my experience at Cattle Shed! From the moment I walked in, the service was top-notch. Every server was attentive and knowledgeable, but the real standout was Manager Alexis. She came by my table multiple times and I noticed her doing the same throughout the restaurant—checking on guests, running food, greeting people, recommending menu items, and making sure everyone’s expectations were exceeded. The steak was absolutely amazing—cooked perfectly—and the entire restaurant, including the restrooms, was spotless. The staff really know the menu inside and out. They offered thoughtful suggestions for wine, appetizers, drinks, and dessert pairings, which made the whole dining experience feel elevated. I’ll definitely be back! I even joked with Alexis that I could eat two steaks if I wasn’t on diet medication (and sadly had to pass on dessert). She’ll probably remember me for that! Overall, an incredible meal and phenomenal service. Highly recommend Cattle Shed and especially Manager Alexis for making it such a memorable experience.“

“buy local, the ice cream is 👍“

“What a fantastic experience we had here. Brie our server was really fantastic and all of the food tasted delicious.“

“This was the best brunch food I’ve had in a long time, by fair. I had the cheesecake French Toast, veggie omelette and creamy grits. Delicious!!!“

“Bite More is easily a 5/5 for me. The atmosphere and service are both top tier every time I’ve come. I’ve been here a few times and everything I’ve tried has been really good. The Mac Attack loaded fries are amazing, the lemon pepper wet wings are solid, and the garlic parmesan wings are just as good. But the Truffle Shuffle burger? Hands down the best burger I’ve ever had. Definitely a spot I’ll keep coming back to. I’ve been to both of their locations and so far both have been great.“

“Where do I start? Let me say this, you will not be disappointed at this location. We've been here 2 days this week and the food was absolutely amazing.

The staff the absolute best. La'Tissa (manager in charge of service), Trinae who was our server and bartender and Shelby who started out with us were all amazing.

I had the salmon both times. Wednesday was very good but today OMG, PHENOMENAL. Tim on that grill did his thing with that salmon.

My wife had the roasted chicken and it was seasoned to perfection. My brother had the ribs which are always great. This will be our weekly spot.

Dessert, I have no words for how good that key lime pie was.

From one Chef to another, GREAT JOB!“

“Really enjoyed our time at Up on the Roof. Food and service were excellent. Have been twice now and each time was a great experience“

“Very delicious. and very clean.“

“Food was good. Server was great. Don’t know when it became acceptable for some guy to hang out at the hostess stand chatting up the hostess, but I guess it’s a very different world from when I did restaurant work.“

“LOVE the Johns Creek location. Reagan is an awesome server. Lots of regular patrons. So many new menu items. The salt and vinegar wings are so good“
