50 Best American Restaurants near Eldridge

“The staff is literally so amazing and kind! Almost as sweet as those cinnamon roll pancakes! 🤤 We had a bit of a wait but perfection takes time. Once it arrived the entire table could not stop raving about how phenomenal it all tasted! True hats off to the talented cooks! A new Scott county park tradition has been born!“

“Great homestyle food, ample portions, friendly staff, great value!“

“I kept seeing posts for the Bloody Mary on their Facebook page so I took a road trip to Eldridge Iowa and tried the quart sized option and it was awesome!! The waitress was equally as awesome!! I’ll be back for more!! 😊“

“My husband and I live little over an hour away. We enjoy coming to the quad cities often. We by chance decided to try out Monarch Kitchen + Bar based off of their rating. All I can say is I am so impressed. Impressed with the care and quality of food. The wait staff are amazing. I am a person who doesn’t use seed oils at home. To know I can go out and eat somewhere and know the ingredients are fresh and good for you means everything. We stayed two days and ate there for lunch and came back the next day for dinner. We loved the lo mein and the garlic aioli fries, but honestly everything we tried was amazing. It is now our new favorite restaurant in the quad cities. We will definitely be back and will tell our friends. Thank you for making our trip even more special!“

“Stepping into Me & Billy’s in Davenport felt like teeing it up on a perfect Saturday—everything lined up just right. From the opening drive, Morgan and Cassidy set the tone. They played the round like seasoned pros: attentive without hovering, polite, and always one step ahead. Their cocktail game was pure shot-making—creative, well balanced, and happily customized to fit exactly what we were looking for. No mis-hits anywhere. The food? Absolute center-face contact. The chicken and dumpling soup was warm, comforting, and full of flavor—like a reliable approach shot that sticks the green. And the ribeye steak sandwich was the ace of the day: cooked beautifully, packed with flavor, and truly out of this world. That’s the kind of shot you talk about long after the round is over. The atmosphere sealed the win. With SantaCon rolling through downtown, the place turned into a holiday scramble—30 to 40 Santas stopping in, high spirits everywhere, and a festive energy that made the whole experience even more memorable. It felt like playing in a charity tournament where everyone’s having a blast and every hole is a good time. All in all, Me & Billy’s delivered a flawless round—great service, outstanding food, and a lively environment. Easily a clubhouse-worthy finish, and absolutely a place we’ll be coming back to. 🏌️‍♂️🎅“

“Server was great! Food was very good. Gift shop is nice.“

“I used to drive 200 miles to buy POPEYES chicken NEVER AGAIN
DAVES HOT CHICKEN is the VERY best --- fries are great chicken is better than GREAT.
If you have not tried Dave's -- you are missing out.
I will never have to drive 200 miles to get great chicken again“

“Six of us met for lunch today! Our waitress Grace was very attentive! Food was excellent! We were all served at the same time! Fun atmosphere!Highly recommend!!“

“Food was amazing. Great & friendly staff. We were in and out in about 30-40 minutes and they were super busy but we got a table right away. Prices are great for the servings you get. Will definitely be coming back now that I know their family friendly (first time at this place so wasn't sure what to expect)“

“stopped in to get a quick bite to eat while waiting for the bus. the atmosphere was great and the staff were friendly and very helpful and they have the best taco salad around! whenever I'm back in Davenport I'll be sure to stop by again“

“I LOVE that you don't have Miller lite-bud light-coors lite on tap! only your own beer!“

“I had lunch with nine other people. The service was great for the ten of us. I had their baked potato soup-delicious! Others had breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and vegetable combo. I didn’t hear one complaint from this potential grumpy group.“

“My family and I were very well accommodated by Colleen (manager) and Erica (server/bartender) for what was an amazing area to host a graduation dinner for family and friends. This private, elegant area would also make a great space for bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, etc. I was obsessed and we were so so lucky to have exceptional service for a short-notice event. We enjoyed the broad selection of drinks from the bar and the delicious food. My favorites were the Mo’ Dough appetizer and the Fowl Play turkey sandwich.“

“Great food, great service and a good atmosphere.

They are a bit more on the pricey side but they also carry better cuts of meat than like a Texas Roadhouse or Lonestar type place.

I have never gotten a bad meal from them dining in, although take out can be disappointing on some occasions so I suggest you dine in at this place.“

“I love Maid Rites. However it took HALF AN HOUR to get 4 Maid Rites. 😢😢 Maid Rite on Division St. (There were only 2 tables when I got there)“

“We chose Beef + Bourbon for our anniversary dinner yesterday. We made reservations ahead of time, and made a note with the reservation that it was our anniversary dinner. I'll get my disappointment over with first and move on to all of good. I wasn't happy with where we were seated. For whatever reason, we were stuck in the bar area. Our view to the left was the parking lot. The view to the right was the bar, which came with its own set of noise. And since we were on a main pathway, it was hard to have any conversation with the traffic and noise passing by every few minutes. I think I was expecting to sit in the beautiful other spaces they have available with dim lighting and a more romantic vibe, especially for an anniversary dinner. The food was absolutely mind blowing. Everything we had was cooked with so much thought and care. The beef medallion and crab cake appetizers really set the stage for the main course, which consisted of ribeye for both of us. Absolutely the best steak I've ever had. Tender, juicy, seasoned to perfection. My husband enjoyed asparagus with hollandaise as a side. I enjoyed a salad. Everything we devoured was absolutely top notch. Our waiter was awesome, Travis. He definitely took care of us as far as service. Very nice gentleman. I would give the food a 10000/10. I hope to be able to go back and give the ambiance another try. My fault for not speaking up while there or having the wrong set of expectations.“

“Came for the five dollar burger baskets on Monday. We had excellent service. The burger baskets were amazing. They accommodated our group of 10 with a smile. We will definitely be coming back. Shout out to our waitress Becky. She did an excellent job.“

“Nice vibe for sure I enjoyed the service and cleanliness. One thing I could bank on is that I definitely did better at The Lone Wolf then in the casino, hopefully they get back to even running side by side so we can keep are tabs paid up with all the big winnings. Thanks Lone Wolf!“

“Our Supper Club chose to dine here last Saturday, we had a group of 10. We had drinks and then appetizers, the mint chocolate chip martini and the espresso martini both were amazing! We all bought appetizers to share and they were all great. Every one of us loved our entrée. I had the New York strip, which was fantastic and my husband had a fillet and he said it was fantastic too. We both eat our steaks, medium rare, and they were cooked perfect. After dinner, we did split a piece of heath bar cheesecake and it definitely lives up to the hype! I think all of our favorite part of the atmosphere was the piano player! He was so fun and played great sing a long songs. Our group had a lot of fun singing along with him and dancing in our chairs! Our server/Alise did a stellar job of taking our orders, a timely delivery of appetizers and drinks. But most importantly, our food was all delivered within a few minutes of each other, so nobody was sitting and waiting for their food. Claudia did a great job on making sure everybody had what they needed. Everything was prepared the way we wanted it and the final touch of boxing our leftovers for us, was just the chefs kiss on top of a great evening. We will definitely be coming back.“

“Soups are delicious 😋🤤. I am not big with fastfood 😔. I am not a big fan of this place. But, you don't have to worry about your order being @## up lol like "Mc Donalds" this place is very friendly, and a good place for a family outing.“

“The course is BACK! I played here many times when it was previously open and I am so happy it is back! I went today with my family and the course was in great shape considering it was closed for many years. Do yourself a favor and golf a round! New carts, friendly staff, and great location!“

“Food is a 10 out of 10, service is a zero out of 10. Our service was Maddie and she needs to go back to waitress school. She is absolutely horrible, if I knew she was going to be my waitress the next time I went I would never go again. I could go into everything that she needs to improve on but not going to waste my time.“

“Excellent beers and staff is fantastic“

“Nina, Antonio, and their staff are awesome! I ordered grubeez for the 1st time today and loved everything we ordered! The Cajun shrimp is delicious and their spicy cheese curds were bomb! Thank you Nina, Antonio, and staff!💚💙“

“My dad went to Harlan's way back in the 1960s when it was a truck stop. My going there feels kind of like a tradition. The Swiss Steak was to die for! So tender and flavorful, along with the cole slaw and baked beans. Friendly service. Excellent all the way around!“

“We had fast wonderful service from our server Kaile. The food was very good. I had the fish and chips. Light crispy batter, delicious fries. My wife enjoyed the giant chicken strips that she wasn’t able to finish.“

“Raw is easily the best cocktail lounge in The Quad Cities. They use fresh, quality ingredients in their food and drinks. Everything's wonderfully curated. A rare big city feel while still being intimate. The bartenders are the best ever! They are really friendly and great at crafting premium cocktails! A true gem for downtown Davenport!“

“karoke with robert , 🎤,the food&bargirls,allens ok too😁“

“Anthony is the best mixologist anywhere. The menu is five star. Charcuterie served for 2,4, or 6. Whatever you do, don’t eat before getting there. Gary & Patty.“

“I was not prepared for the insane amount of beer on tap! Incredible selection, and a knowledgeable bartender that helped me narrow down exactly what I wanted. The food was delicious, and there was a variety of seating options. I also got a free beer with my entree“

“Fun experience with some amazing food. Love this place“

“Only good thing about this place is the view. Went last night to celebrate a birthday and I spent more time waiting for my beer than being able to sit down and enjoy my time. 10+ minute wait for a beer with only 5 People around the bar is pretty ridiculous. Needless to say I was pretty upset by the end of the night.“

“My husband and I live in the neighborhood and had several people tell us to visit. My only regret is we didn’t go sooner! The staff were all so friendly, generous portions, one of my favorite pancakes I’ve ever eaten. We will absolutely be back!“

“The Family Restaurant is a go to for my wife and I. They have incredible food with staff that is always friendly and ready to serve. There is a small discount for paying with cash. They serve any food all day.
You will not regret giving this place a try!“

“I was at the bar when the incident occurred with the customer vaping. Owner asked him politely to please not vape. The customer was unnecessarily offended even though there were signs stating no smoking or vaping. Riverside is very friendly and welcoming- veterans included. Great food, great staff!“

“It was my first visit not knowing what to eat . The lady I wish I knew her name .Caucasian mature lady she was exceptional , gave me tips and suggestions. The sandwich was ready in 5mins. No waiting . ** Shocker . The sandwich was great I ate a quarter of it could barely finish it. The king size is great for two meals … jmo . I recommend this if you need a great sandwich . Saved the backed potato for dinner and the rest of sandwich.“

“Love love love Culver's. I'm glad we don't have these back home in California because I would probably eat there daily. Haha. This place is amazing. I've never had anything bad here. The custard is incredible and the butter burgers are next level.“

“A group of us, friends from high school, (UT '74) were at the Palace 4/16 and were completely happy with our service, pizza, and cold bar drinks! Looks like the Palace is on it's way back up!!! thanks for being part of a great couple hours! We'll be back!!“

“Best service around!!!! Some of the best bartenders in Davenport. Come see Alicia, Taylor, Bailey and Shanell behind the bar. You won’t be disappointed“

“When we were driving through Iowa, we were told we had to have a maid-rite. So we did, this restaurant was in a convenient location for us. We loved the doner atmosphere, and we were surprised they have a lot of different choices. We ordered the Cheese-Rite and the Maid-rite chili shoe. The order came out quick, hot, and tasted good. Next time, I will need to try an appetizer and a shake cause they looked good.“

“Our first time here and it was super delicious and the staff was awesome and super nice and helpful!“

“Hadn’t been here for about five years and the only thing that changed was the side the brunch items were located. The food was still very good and the staff was outstanding. Emma was our server and she was very attentive to all the tables she was responsible for. Highly recommend and please check out the specials they have throughout the week.“

“Awesome spot if you're looking for a delicious breakfast or lunch. Chicken and waffles and mango habanero chicken sandwich were both delicious. Prices were reasonable. Restaurant and restroom were super clean. Surprised they weren't busier than they were. We will definitely be back!“

“Very friendly and all the staff was just great during our visit for brunch. Our waitress was very nice and food was great. We will be back again soon during our next visit to my Mom's.“

“Good food, friendly service“
