48 Best American Restaurants near Talmo

“Cute, quaint, country vibe in the middle of Talmo. Friendly small town staff and the food is not too bad either. Most often there's a line waiting to order which tells me others like it too. Love supporting local unique businesses and this place is well worth the visit.“

“Great burgers & sides. Fast & friendly service. We’ll be back.“

“Such a WONDERFUL experience! We decided to go to Chateau Elan and wanted a restaurant that was in the area since we decided to stay the night this time on the property. Finding this local eatery was a GEM! We were told that it might be hard to get in but we came early and was able to get a seat at the bar! Front door parking (and other parking behind too if you need it).We ordered the Crab Cakes (a bit pricey but we'll worth it considering it is 90% lump), the seafood tower( Oysters,Giant Prawns, Lobster Claw Meat, Lump Crab, you can choose 3 or 4 items, the Chilean Sea Bass( cooked perfectly) and Potatoes, oh and the GUMBEAUX, was really good, the first okra they put on top, I should've ordered on the side. We did order the Lamb Chops but there was a temperature issue, but it was fixed immediately.We weren't expecting the Manager April to stop by to Apologize for a couple of mishaps, but the experience was so good that we didn't even care.This waitress Montine stopped by when we first got I and was offering suggestions, she even stopped by later to see how we enjoyed it. Such a bubbly personality! Nicole I think Manager too behind the bar with Riley.... THE BEST SERVICE ! She heard her name and she was on it!A patron dropped some money in the bathroom, another patron brought it to a Manager who brought it to the patron they thought! Just good wholesome honest homegrown restaurant.Drinks were good, I wanted a Hot Chocolate with Baileys with the cheesecake (1 of 8 dessert options) , it was GREAT! NO AUTOMATIC GRATUITY, no paid parking! BEST TO MAKE A RESERVATION But the best food and service ever! They took ownership of mistakes and made it right even in a packed out house! Definitely be back there! Willing to drive 2 hours just to! Tab was $300 for all our drinks, and foodVegetarian options: Tons of veggiesKid-friendliness: They let kids sit at bar“

“Awesome place. Was looking for lunch and was thinking fast food, but those crazy prices might get something good. So tried this place was reasonably priced and about same price as what fast food charges. Food was filling, place was nice inside and seemed like a nice communial place to gather. Great experience and food came out hot and fresh, faster then waiting in the fast food line.“

“This is a small quaint restaurant that has the mom and pop atmosphere and southern hospitality, geared more towards the older generation it’s a peaceful spot for a good meal. The food is everything you expect from a southern cafe with all the flavor and hospitality along with it. The food is priced in low range and you will get a good meal for a few bucks.“

“What can I say, came here during their grand opening, and haven't been back since.... The wait staff was lacking beyond belief. And the food was sub par..Fast forward to today.... We decided to give it another go. SO GLAD WE DID!The food was excellent. I got the blueberry French toast and it was heaven.And the staff really had it going! Tables were clean asap. No dirty dishes sitting at the table while you ate. We never had to look for a server for coffee, to order, to add to our order, or just because we had a question. They were there!It really felt like such a great display of teamwork by the staff.And last but least, the manager, Shekeria, was everywhere, helping with anything that needed help to keep it all running so smoothly.We will definitely be back.“

“Gina is a great mixologist. The staff are consistent and low turnover. Josh and the chefs are always coming up with a new special entree. They have something for everyone. Do you want an old fashioned? Small plate of shrimp? Just lounge and people watch? Standup comedy upstairs on weekends.“

“I’ve been here plenty of times and I have had a pleasant time each time but the other night I came and one young lady really went above and beyond for me in the drive thru. After a long day I decided to stop here to get food for my family and this young lady was not only sweet but also very very patient with me and answered all questions I had about anything in my order. I went as far as far as trying to tip her which she declined because they are not allowed to accept them. So Mikenna girl it if u see this I kept my promise girl!! You are an asset to this location and I really hope they value your hard work and dedication xoxoxoxoxo“

“just in town for the day and decided to stop in bc my boyfriend is gluten free. the food was delicious and our server was so helpful and friendly. I wish we lived closer, could definitely see this being a regular place for us to eat.“

“Beautiful Place with Great Food, Great Service, and Clean Bathrooms!We had a party of 12, and our table was put together for us quickly. Our server smiled the entire time, and was very patient with the kids and constant things we needed.The food was delicious, and you are served honey butter croissants as you wait to eat. There’s a large fish tank for kids to see if they are bored, too. Our kids even asked to tour the restaurant, because it was “so beautiful.”We will definitely be back to celebrate more birthdays!Parking: A lot of parking space!Kid-friendliness: Large fish tank that kids love, and many simple dishes for them too“

“We enjoyed our first trip to Standard Service. The food was delicious and the service was great! Just wish trivia was upstairs rather than in the tap room.“

“My first time here, and it was very good. They were busy so service took a little while, but food was worth it. I got the Nashville hot sauce on my chicken, loved it. The turnip greens were delicious. No live music where we sat, but I think they have it in the back room.“

“Stopped by after a busy day of shopping. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Our server Taylor did a really good job. No long wait for food to arrive. She was good about checking in with us to make sure we were happy.“

“The real jewels in this crown are the kind-hearted and attentive people you find here. Tim Bunch, Bobby Joe Peck, Clemente’, and Sandy Stone have collaborated literally decades of food service experience to create a delightful hacienda for hungry Epicurians. However, it is hard to beat their hot breakfast pancakes, powder sugar dusted French toast, cheddar scrambled eggs, home fries with onions, country-fried steak with scrumptious brown gravy, french fries, fried grouper filets, delicious tiny green lima beans, fresh-brewed sweet iced tea, generous fresh-cut lemon wedges, tasty spaghetti with meat sauce, complimentary jalapeño and lime juice marinated cucumbers, juicy fried chicken legs, crisp corn muffins, home baked brownies, and the hard to find 18-item deluxe salad bar. Those crunchy croutons really rock! The refreshing bite-sized cut-up fruit dishes are an additional favorite, as well as a healthy dessert choice. The only entree I don’t personally care for is the fried salmon patties. ( In my culinary opinion. they need more chopped onions and lemon juice in the mix to cut the fishy flavor.) However, many diners relish them topped with white gravy. I just cannot say enough good comments about this fine eatery and the quality individuals who frequent here. Come sample their cafeteria-style offerings. Many local people frequent this hot spot daily with good reason. Their food is great. You will not be disappointed.“

“The food has always been very good. The service always excellent. It is pretty loud sometimes though but that's just most restaurants. Definitely a good place to eat. Portions are large too if you're looking for bang for the buck.“

“Good food at a reasonable price. The owners were very nice as well as their staff. Great service, good food, friendly staff, reasonable priced what more could you ask for?“

“Stopped by on a Friday morning. I live close by and didn’t know it was there for almost a year. Ordered 3 biscuits (sausage egg and cheese, bacon, and bacon and cheese) - Best biscuit I’ve ever had! My family agreed that they were awesome. Service was quick (even though the cook had to make fresh bacon), and friendly.“

“This was our favorite BBQ place when we lived in Gainesville and they didn’t disappoint this time either!!! They have gotten a lot larger n the ten years we have been gone and I still highly recommend it“

“The food was good! There's a lot of choices.“

“We chose Twenty7 for having our company Christmas party this year. The venue/space was perfect for us, the food was great, and the staff did an incredible job meeting all of our specific requests for the party. Highly recommend.“

“Wow! 10/10! Don't listen to those other negative reviews. This restaurant is AMAZING with a beautiful view and the staff makes you feel so special. Our waitress, Chelsea, was waiting for us to decide on a side dish. We were debating between the grits and fruit bowl. When she came out, she brought both out! We also wanted to share our food and she gave us separate plates instead of just cutting it in half or bringing a side plate. The food was delicious! Worth every penny“

“I go here because of the biscuits. Thy are so good. The only reason I left 3 stars for service at this particular location is because the waitress didn't ask if i wanted a refill on my drink. No service. No tip. If you had filled my cup up, automatic tip. No service. No tip. Other than that, food was fast, hot, and great.“

“BLT is what I get every time I eat here“

“The ham and turkey are perfect, so delicious.“

“Wonderful food, wonderful atmosphere. And the music isn’t so loud that you can actually talk and“

My husband had the chicken fried chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans. I had the halibut fish and chips with Cole slaw. We will be back next time we are in the area!“

“I've been going to Waffle House for over 24 years and today was the first time the order came out perfect made to my order. I had medium bacon that wasn't half raw or burnt, over medium eggs runny to perfection, and hash browns covered and peppered that weren't crunchy. The cook responsible for this absolutely perfect meal was named Brittany. I hope I got the spelling right. What a great way to start my day, with this perfectly cooked breakfast. The service was wonderful too. Thanks!“

“Absolutely amazing! I love coming here and it’s so close to where I work! I definitely recommend trying this place out and the staff is super sweet! They’re quick and very welcoming in the restaurant! Definitely worth checking out! Also this guacamole burger was absolutely amazing and so tasty!“

“This location is turning into my favorite! Mainly bc the cool lady that works there! She’s been working in Waffle Houses everywhere and knows everything! Her name is RACHEL and she’s an AMAZING server! The atmosphere when she’s working is vibes! Love her and I’ll keep going back as long as she’s there! Shes gonna make sure your order is right, and she’s gonna get it out in record time! She’s a hard worker, never misses a beat! Shes so good at her job! So easy to talk to and she’ll make you feel right at home! ?????? ?? The best cook is also at this location, his name is Jonathan P.! Cooks my food to perfection!! I’ve never had a better grilled hash brown bowl! When those 2 work together you’re gonna have the BEST Waffle House experience!!!!“

“Great buttermilk flavor home mad biscuitsWent again the other day and needed to wash my hands, no tissue, no soap and no paper towels in the ladies room. The whole place smelled like bug spray. I couldn't eat my food because the soap I used in the men's room made my hands smell like bug spray also. Not a good experience.“

“Best Waffles and BLT in town!!“

“Pros- Awsome Double Quarter cheese burgers. Cons- No French fries. Exorbitant high prices“

“I had a very nice experience at Deli Max! My food (for 4 people) was prepared quite quickly. My wait time was no longer than 10 minutes despite having 3 other people in front of me. Our plates were given to us as soon as they came out and we were definitely satisfied with the plates. Excellent customer service and the place was extremely clean.“

“From Blairsville, had been by Yonah Burger many times but had not eaten there in several years. Stopped by today on a whim to grab lunch. Burger was good, kind of expensive, but so is about every place else. What really struck me, though, is the friendly greeting, they take your NAME for your order, not a number!..asked everybody ordering how their day was going and how they were, and when everybody leaves, told everybody thank you and have a great rest of your day..that is SOOO rare these days...usually a short, insincere greeting and rarely a thank you nowadays at most places..this place is a breath of fresh air! Will be back..BTW, I remember Yonah Burger as a kid back in the '70's..and I know it has survived at least one fire, and has been grazed by a tornado during those many years..I hope it continues for many more!“

“Amazing place to get biscuits. Our biscuits we giant, golden brown, and perfectly cooked. We ordered a sausage, a bacon, and a tenderloin egg and cheese every one of those giant biscuits were stuffed full. This place is worth going out of your way for. Highly recommend!“

“Stopped in for lunch with my family today. The food was delicious and the service was great inspite of them being short staffed. we will definitely return!“

“6 stars weren't available for this absolutely All American tradition. As I ate my All-Star special, I literally felt as if I were on the back of a bald eagle named Trump, dropping syrupy waffle bombs and chessy hash brown grenades all over my hunger! My hunger surrendered and we made peace with one of the best cups of coffee you ever did taste. God bless this American hero of nutrition. Amen.“

“good food and service. pleasant professional employees“

“We had a wonderful brunch with Work friends we had worked together so many years Finally got together again! I suggested First Watch in Gainesville because I have ate Atother locations. I love it.Had a wonderful time and atmosphere. It was very crowded. We loved it highly recommend.!!“

“This is a great little burger joint with delicious burgers in a variety of styles, tasty fries, and their shakes are unique and yummy as can be! Save room for one! The service was excellent as well. Don’t hesitate to stop here next time you’re in the mood for a burger! You won’t be disappointed!“

“My 1st time here n my daughter took me, the waitress was incredible and every other person we came in contact w/ were extremely kind n the food was really good as well.Parking: Nothing much really just that it is a shared parking lot w/ other stores but there is def more then enough room 4 everyone.Kid-friendliness: The people are chipper n they seemed 2 have a great kids menu.“

“We visited this location on Memorial Day 2023 and couldn’t be more pleased!! The employees, food and restaurant was amazing!! Our food was delivered hot and absolutely delicious!! The employees checked on us 3 times to see if we needed anything and everyone was so friendly and attentive.. thank you for a wonderful dinner and we will definitely be back!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Stopped here for lunch while traveling. Service was great, food was good. Would go again if I remembered where it was! JK.Parking: Lots of parking available, I believe the lot is also accessible for trucks/trailers/motor homes. Wheelchair accessibility: TONS of room in the restaurant. No problem seen at all as far as accessibility.“

“Another Follow Up- I continue to give this place a 4 star strictly based on the beer. Additionally, the place is got a good vibe & nice outside area. However, the food is really not good! I gave it the benefit of the doubt, but this time I can't do it; the food is complete crap, if you come here plan on eating before or after, the food he is only if you're drunk and desperate for something to eat. Completely sad, low grade crap, obviously thrown to together by someone who's an unskilled cook and doesn't give a shit about quality etc. This is my last post for this establishment.“

“Friendly server, Lara, I believe. Food came out quick. It’s Waffle House. They are pretty much all the same.“

“The food was great. I had the wings plain and they were flavorful and delicious. The steakhouse Mac and cheese was good as well. Although the name indicates there would be pieces of steak in the Mac and cheese, there was not. I also ordered the fries which came hot. My server was attentive and delightful. She was engaging and courteous to my needs. Overall my experience was very pleasant.Parking: There is a huge parking lot with more spaces than can be used. I drove my semi truck and had an entire lane to myself with plenty more parking to spare.“

“I absolutely love coming to this location!! From day ONE Tosha took our order, and she has remembered our whole entire order by memory every single time !! She does not slip a beat , she is why we come here because she is so friendly and her service is absolutely a 10 + !! I can not speak more highly of anyone than her , she is the kinda person who actually cares about her job and her customers!! What an amazing person you have working for you , I definitely would be so thankful if I could have her at my company !! She is absolutely one in a million !!“

“Lovely environment !!! Nice employees !!!“
