50 Best American Restaurants near Lake City

“Excellent Service during this pandemic. These workers are working very hard & deserve a raise. They need to be recognized. They have been busy from open to close non-stop. I waited over 1.5 hours for door dash to deliver my food but they did not have any drivers available in the area, so the owner is taking it upon his self to deliver the food personally to me. #payraise #excellentservice #recommends #11alivenews #recognizethesepeople“

“The music is so loud you cannot hear each other talk. I couldn't hear the waitress very well and I don't think she heard us very well because she got the order wrong. We asked that the music be turned down and she told us it can't be and it would be over with soon. We ordered a deluxe burger and a deluxe chicken sandwich, all we got was 2 burger patties on a bunch and a piece of chicken on a bun, I had to ask for the lettuce, tomatoes and pickles twice in order to get it. Usually this location is great but the last few visits the music is too loud or they are clanging dishes around so loud there is no way to have a conversation.“

“In the Atlanta airport so the prices are higher. I had the Chef Cat burger & sweet potato fries. Very good. Waitress was also friendly. Recommend if you’re in ATL airport concourse A.“

“Ms Yolanda was extremely helpful in placing my order and had excellent customer service. She was kind, made helpful recommendations and gave a smile when I needed extra help. Great experience. Thanks“

“We dined here as a party of 8 this evening, it was quite a treat! Reservations were easily made and we were greated promptly to begin our experience. Cumulatively we had a diverse order. Everything was presented wonderfully :) we thoroughly enjoyed our drinks, meals, and deserts. I look forward to the next visit. Thanks again!“

“Dissapointed in Big Kahuna dog. No creole mustard, no pickled onions, the "housemade slaw" was shredded cabbage, the cherry pepper relish was pickle relish out of a jar. When I mentioned it to the girl at the counter after I received it , she said we are out of most of the ingredients on the menu and they stopped putting creole mustard on it because people said it was too spicy. Lol. Total lack of communication between the kitchen and the counter staff. We all have to 86/sub items, But you should tell the customer what he's getting so his expectations are not dashed. I know it's just a hot dog and I ate it because I was hungry and the actual hot dog was good, but they didn't get anything close to what it should have been.“

“Honestly, I was surprised. We were in Summer Hill trying to get dinner somewhere else but they couldn't squeeze us in, so we ended up at Southern National. The food was SO good. Great variety, fresh ingredients, flavorful. The drinks and wine selection are spot onz and we've always had great service. We've added this to our regular rotation.“

“I didn’t eat much but their Cobb salad is the absolute best I’ve ever had. I loved the portion size and the fresh ingredients. I think it’s a great venue for being meeting with friends. It’s a really cute environment and a premium location. I wish their hours were extended but it is what it is.“

“Seven ladies from Memphis went to Frost Bistro 4/5/2025 for dinner. The atmosphere was a vibe. The service was great! I took a picture with Rasheeda Frost! She is more beautiful in person!! She was kind and approachable! I love me some Rasheeda Frost!!! Our waister was Tyra. She was absolutely amazing! She suggested the sautéed brussels sprouts with my honey hot lamb chops. The sauteed brussels sprouts were a hit! My lamb chops were so moist and juicy! My food was delicious. I also had a wellness drink. It was perfect! Everybody enjoyed their food. The food was fye!! I would definitely go back!!!“

“Absolutely Fabulous. The layering of flavors made each bite a special adventure to savored.“

“The pepperoni butter that comes alongside three little rounds of fry bread has gotten so popular that Banshee now sells it by the pint for $10. But that’s not the only delicious innovation coming from the kitchen run by the executive chef Nolan Wynn and the chef de cuisine Ben Lee. They grill habanadas, the fruity heatless relatives of habaneros, tiger-skin style and add puffed rice and black beans.“

“Excellent customer service given by Stanzio. He was knowledgeable and helpful on my food choices. He was very respectful, kind, and attentive to our needs. He was friendly and such a pleasant server. The food is to die for!! Simply Excellent restaurant!!“

“Soon as I walked up I was greeted with a friendly welcome. Was directed to the bar area until my table was ready. The bar was comfy so I Decided to stay and eat my food my server Nia was professional and helpful. She made a really good cocktail My food was Salmon croquettes tasted just like my mom made them. The restaurant was lovely the walls gave me motivation and total story. Must to stop everytime I visit the A“

“Do not walk, RUN to Beercode kitchen and bar next time you have any available time at the airport. The service is fantastic and the food is top notch. This was hands down the best burger I’ve had in a long time and the pub pretzel was great too!“

“Amazing service, unique food.“

“Had a layover & decided to spend it in Fridays! Great apps and drinks!! Staff was great too! Had fun watching a game!“

“Sarah got me table quickly and served me courteously, kindly, and politely. She got me my food in a timely manner.“

“My husband and I was looking for some place new to go for dinner and i found this place on the internet. We had never heard of it and it was close to our home so we decided to check it out. The set up is nice. I believe there are 3 or 4 dinning rooms. The staff was really nice and very attentive. We didnt make any reservations which they do prefer but they sat us still without a wait. The drinks were really good and they did not hold out on the amount of alcohol. Now the dinner. OMG Dinner was off the chain. I tip my hat off to the chef. I had the Honey Glaze Salmon and my husband is vegan so he had The Smoked spinach Asparagus Mashed potatoes and Brocolini. When I tell you this had to be the best food with so much flavor. We were more then pleased. The only complaint we have is the music got really loud. If couldnt hear each other even if you are sitting right next o each other. But other then that I will definitely return and I must say I am adding this to my list of best restaurants in Atlanta.“

“Everything on the menu is Good. Drinks omg you will not be disappointed“

“Dinner before a show at the Fox. First time eating at Low Country, and it was delicious. The restaurant is lovely, the menu has something for everyone and the service was impeccable. Our meal choices included the deviled egg and ravioli appetizers, salad, shrimp and grits, sea bass, the trout with lump crab (special entree), brussels sprouts (these were unexpectedly tempura battered which we didn't notice when ordering and we would not have ordered them), the lobster mac and cheese and the warm glazed donut with gelato. Everything was amazing! Our only complaint was the unclear parking situation. It would be nice if parking instructions were included on the reservation confirmation.“

“Lol …I wasn’t hungry but was on a lay over. It was almost dinner time. I saw Bobby’s Place! Anything Bobby cooks is top notched. Loved my burger the right ratio type meat for a burger it was not oily or greasy. The meat also was top quality and tasted like it. Great waiter. Wish we had one in Orange Ca. Bobby?“

“My wife and I celebrated her birthday at Ten ATL on Monday, July 31st. The Greatest live music we have experienced in Atlanta. Staff is very friendly and customer service was outstanding. Looking forward to our next Monday night visit..“

“Went for the first time today and let me say it was a whole vibe, I’m just sad to say this place is right near my house and I just stumbled upon it today. The food was top notch, the music was great and the service was fantastic. I will definitely be back. Five stars ⭐️ loved it!“

“Restaurant 356 is always a great place to share a special meal, whether for business or pleasure. First-time guests love visiting Porsche's North American headquarters building (coincidentally, it's also the HQ in the Avengers' movies). The views of Porsche vehicles racing around the track just outside the restaurant certainly adds to the lively conversation. The food is always high-quality, and the Porsche-shaped butter pats are fun to see. I have never had a bad meal here, and my current favorite is the schnitzel - delicious. Fish and the burgers are always delicious as well. You will not be disappointed, and your guests will be impressed with your restaurant knowledge when you take them here.“

“Fast, friendly service. The pulled chicken sandwich and Sam Adams Hazy IPA were both pleasant surprises. I wasn't expecting an experience this enjoyable at a major airport, but they did not disappoint. Also, I left an important item at the restaurant, and the staff has been responsive, courteous, and efficient in their part in returning it. Well done!“

“Outstanding food, friendly staff, AMAZING DECOR! 10/10“

“So I ordered a large cheese pizza with roasted garlic from here on Uber eats. They took forever to make it, the driver pulled up and had to wait so that made for a cold pizza. Now, although cold, the pizza was pretty delicious. One of the better cheese pizzas I've tasted. Still deciding how they compare to Oz, but I gotta try it hot to know for sure. I usually only go here for the vegan burgers but I'll be back for the pizza!“

“This is the best bar on the southside. Manny is the best bartender in my opinion. He always acknowledges you when you come in and makes sure you have a good time. Nick and a few other staff also are good about stepping in to help out it make's your experience great. This bar gives you that home away from home vibe most of us in our 30s look for.“

“Stop over at ATL airport and I found the best food and service here. AV and Keonte were so friendly, attentive and efficient. They both had warm, welcoming smiles and made me feel so comfortable. Noone had smiled like that my way all day and I had 3 stop overs! Thank you both very much.“

“This place is a true gem especially if you like wings. When I went out didn't take me long at all to get my food. The wings were so crunchy and delicious, couldn't get enough of it. Mac and cheese was delicious as well.... Wish the Mac and cheese portion was a little bigger that's my only tiny complaint also wish it was open more often. Other than that I'd spend a good deal of my little money here.“

“Serenity was our server and did a wonderful job. Friendly, fast, efficient, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu.

Burger was hot and flavorful. Generous portions for the chicken tenders, which were good and tasty.“

“I usually don’t write reviews but our server Curstyn was the BEST! She greeted us right away and was very knowledgeable about the menu. Everything she suggested from the food to the drinks were spot on. We will definitely be back to see her!!“

“The food is amazing!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️?“

“I Was Completely Blown Away At This Restaurant. I Was Sat By A Beautiful Host Which Turn Out To Be My Server. Renisha Was Very Knowledgeable About The Ga Craft Beers. She did an amazing job by explaining each item on the menu. I Gave Her The Opportunity Of Ordering My Food and Beer. Oh Boy She Did Not Disappoint. I had the Blackened Catfish with rice and beans and an Orange Still Diva Beer To Drink. It was her two favorite items and I had no complaints! Renisha service was the best service I have had in years. My water cup was never low and if I had more time I would have had another beer. Renisha Was Very Patient With Me Even Though The Restaurant Was Very Busy. She is also a team player and is willing to pick up the slack from others. As A Restaurant Manager Please Give This Server Her Flowers, She Deserves it !“

“Jessie was amazing!! she was our server that we had whenever me and my mom went. absolutely sweet, casual checkups to see if we needed anything, and overall fantastic experience. i definitely recommended going to this place!!:)

Parking: stockbridge ga – the parking is a little tight whenever busy, but otherwise it's great for larger vehicles (such as vans). it's also not a headache to get around!! i love it.“

“The food was delicious and filling. I had to take home leftovers.

I got brown rice as a base, Mac N' Cheese, and broccoli salad for my two sides. Chicken for my protein and lemon herb vinegarette to top it off. Amazing.“

“Absolutely amazing! We found this today on the way to the Zoo and it will for sure be one of our go to spots from now on ❤️ we loved it and the food was amazing! I love the atmosphere of the place! We will be back! 🫶🏻“

“Great food and vibes“

“My fellow traveler and I stopped by on our way home to Virginia. It was a long day of travel, delayed flights, we just wanted to sit down and chill. We didn’t expect much out of an airport restaurant… But we were both blown away. Our server, Tarvis, was charming, professional, knowledgeable, and exceptional. The BLT with bacon jam, and the rice pudding with cinnamon and peaches was superb. (I could’ve eaten a whole jar of the bacon jam.) Tarvis, thank you for making two weary travelers leave your restaurant with pep in their step Keep on shining your light. And to any traveler who is leery of a place that serves a hamburger and a sushi roll… Fear not. This place is great.“

“If you come at the right time, service is usually pretty fast and sufficient. Food is good 👍 Was a little slack than usual on the fish in my fish and wings.

Wheelchair accessibility: May have a time getting in that heavy door.“

“I recommend everything on the menu. Food is great!“

“It was great I really appreciate the fast service“

“Let me just say I love this place. My family and I order from here at least once a week. The wings are a 10/10 trust me?. The food taste like they use fresh grease for every order...The prices is affordable..The Customer Service is excellent..?The location is perfect FOR ME because it's only 3 minutes away... The place is a bit small so the only thing I wouldn't advise is to dine in. Besides that if I could give this place 10 stars instead of 5 I would.?“

“I came here because I was using a groupon. Great Jay and the rest of the staff are fantastic. Great service and great music. My first time here. The bodega Chopped Cheese is a little greasy for me and I found the bread very dry.... I will probably give it another try in the future.“

“We decided to check out Virgil’s on the spur of the moment while we were in Atlanta… from us entering the door, manager Nassier made us feel welcome and thoroughly explained the menu. Once we were seated our waiter Brandon did an exceptional job taking our order and keeping our glasses full… the atmosphere was great and it experience was like none other…I can say this was one of the best if not the best dining experiences…“

“The two big pork chops were fall off the bone delicious, with yummy gravy generously dousing them and the rice. The whitefish was hot out of the oil, with a perfect light crunchy cornmeal crust. The man who served us was highly professional and very nice. Next time I’m in the neighborhood I’ll be back for sure.“

“Used to go here waaaay back when it was the corner tavern but just started frequenting again since discovering they have live music Sunday evenings. Though it's a jazz jam, the band plays a great variety with some of the drop ins. The food is surprisingly good for a bar. Brisket nachos were my go to but I discovered their salads and roasted brussel sprouts recently ? so there's something for everybody. Cocktails are appropriately strong for a late night spot, bartenders and servers are friendly plus free parking and great entertainment. The crowd varies so you'll see a little bit of everything and feel comfortable hanging out.“

“You have to try the Cuban sandwich, I’ve never been able to find one better“

“great food great service clean“
