16 Best American Restaurants near Orion

“A great place to play games and enjoy a nice dinner with family!“

“I don’t just review restaurants for no reason. Culver’s is Culver’s in terms of food, but the employees here are exceptional. They are friendly, accommodating and go out of there way to make dining here a good experience. I’m not from the area but ate here twice in the last few days and was blown away by how great the staff was. Kudos to this location, they’ve got it figured out.“

“I try to never give 5 stars because someone once told me that if you were to give top ratings to everyone and everything then noone would ever try to improve. And in my humble opinion, you should always strive and there's always room for improvement! They nailed the atmosphere tho! Not the run of the mill antique overload restaurant but very nicely blending industrial modern decor keeping it simple but classy. Very Midwest!“

“Great butter burgers, fries, and hot sandwiches. The frozen custard is delicious and freshly made with your choice of mixins to make yummy concretes. Order at the counter & your food is delivered to your table, or use drive-in or pickup.“

“Rather than stop at one of the busy chains, I decided to have my meal at the airport prior to my flight. It was a good choice. First, my server Pam was outstanding. She was attentive and professional. The restaurant is calm and quiet, and there is lots of room. The meal was cooked just as ordered, with eggs, sausage potatoes and an English Muffin. The prices are very reasonable. Next time in Quad Cities International, I'll eat here again.“

“Awsome burgers and and onion rings“

“Went to Uncle Pete's Gyros yesterday and had the best experience tge food was amazing and staff is so great . The owners knew we were celebrating my moms heavenly birthday and came out w a special dessert to help honor her ❤️ they let us share our memories of her and her love for there family and gyros . Thank you for helping putting joy into a day that we often feel sad .“

“This is a great place to eat. Our waitress had perfect timing, checking on us when needed while still allowing us to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. She provided excellent service. If you’re in the area and feeling hungry, you won’t be disappointed. I highly recommend it, especially for families.“

“We love Miss Mamie's! We often go for special events, like birthdays and anniversaries. Usually, we get the catfish and the crab cakes. This time we went in for carry-out and got the catfish dinner, spinach salad, and beef stroganoff. Great portions (we got two meals each from that order), wonderful, friendly service, and some of the best food in the QC.“

“Hands down best breakfast in the QC.. come every Sunday!!! Nothing compares“

“Love coming, great selection of Bourbon which I love. Lately, it seems like everytime we come in we are unable to get Pizza l, which is fantastic. Really need to have all your cooks trained on Pizza so you don't lose a big part of your menu when someone doesn't show up.“

“Best bar on the Illinois side“

“Good food, great service, very clean, friendly staff !“

“Usually Village Inn has always been our first choice for the perfect breakfast. The last few times have been different for us. The hash browns were the best, always a golden brown and crispy. Now they are barely cooked all the way through. A friend told me you have to ask for them to be cooked extra crispy so I did, they were over cooked then. The pancakes we had today were so thick and dry, just not like they use to be. I am not sure if it’s the cook or what has happened. Please go back to being consistently great!!“

“I am a long time customer. My wife and I went every Wednesday and Saturday as long as she lived. Now I go 4-5 times a week. Tonight I had Hailey as my bartender (I usually sit at the bar) and she never disappoints. She is a very hard worker, and always attentive to customers needs. Super friendly. chatting as she works. I always drink cabernet, and my first one shows up as soon as I sit, from whoever sees me sit. There are so many wonderful people working there, I could throw names for a half hour. Another perk of Applebee's bar is the customers. I have many Apple buddies just from meeting people at the bar. It is a social center.“

“Sometimes it's hit and miss. But Jan 16, 2023, I had the best Bdubs I've ever had ever. Ive been to them all over the country, but hometown knocked it out last night!

They've stayed more consistent than most locations here. Great staff here too 3/2026“
