21 Best American Restaurants in Alton

“Had a large party with short notice today and they accommodated us with no issues. Josie our waitress was one of the best servers we have had in a long time.“

“My husband and I wanted to find a place in the area that had breakfast all day because I love breakfast food and let me tell you guys their breakfast food no matter what you get never disappoints it was delicious every time but my all time favorite is the biscuits and gravy and bacon and toast and French toast.“

“Great food and great people!!“

“Just want to tell ya we've been customers for over 30 yrs and we've noticed a definite improvement in the food as of lately ...“

“First time! Gorgeous evening to sit on the patio. Patio ambiance was upscale casual.

Service: Server (Mackenzie) was perfect - personalized recommendations, quick turnaround on requests, always there when needed and invisible when not needed.

Starters and drinks: My only criticism of the meal is that our caesar dressing was not chilled (as though it had sat out before being poured) but the flavor was perfectly peppery and the romaine was crisp. Our drinks were an old fashioned (garnished with cherry & orange and made strong) and an espresso martini (3-bean garnish but not particularly strong).

Entrees: one filet mignon with asparagus (cooked to just the right an of crisp) and baked potato and one peppered salmon on rice. Both entrees were the highest quality, prepared to perfection; I suspect that anything on the menu would exceed expectations.

Service (continued): Teammate - name unknown - kept our waters topped off and discarded dishes cleared from the table without interrupting. Five stars.“

“the snackers are the best, hands down!“

“We really enjoyed our visit here. The food and drinks were really good and well prepared. The service was also impeccable, big shout to Lisa, our bartender! She was great and did an excellent job on the drinks. We will definitely be back next time we're in the area to try the entrées. We had the goat cheese appetizer on our visit. It was delicious!“

“Joe K is one of the bigger breakfast restaurant's in the Alton area. A lot of seating, usually busy but not overly crowded. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Food is good with a few exceptional dishes like the breakfast pony. Breakfast pony is a biscuit with your choice of meat & egg, hash browns layered topped with sausage gravy. Delicious. Only gave a 4 star because the food came out cold.“

“Super friendly staff. my meal very good - will return!“

“We had ham sliders, Italian beef sliders, mac and cheese and salad for sm family function! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Highly recommend!!“

“Normally, I support your business but you guys are going to make someone sick. I just got a box of chicken that could only eat the outside because, it's not done. I took a bite of a leg and it tasted funny. So, I looked at it and it was red and pink. gross If, I get sick you'll be hearing from me. I'm so disappointed“

“my 4yr old grandson and I go there as often as we can. Great service and great food. Definitely beats McDonald's were he usually wants to go. He eats biscuits and gravy sausage links and fried potatoes there. when before we went there he wouldn't eat anything but McDonald's. so glad to have this place to go to. Plus like I said super friendly place with awesome service“

“I love this place. We frequent here because of the great drinks and food!“

“Chubby's grill and garage is a wonderful place to grab a big juicy burger, fries, and appetizers. Great food specials weekly, as well as drink specials. It is family friendly. The staff are all super friendly people. The owner is a stand up guy, and you can tell he really cares about his customers and he treats his employees with love and respect like any great owner would. I would HIGHLY reccomend this place to ANYONE looking to have some great food, drinks, and fun. The hours are 11am to 11pm, kitchen is 11am to 10pm. this place is an absolute gem 💎.“
