30 Best American Restaurants in Carmel

“Wonderful lunch and waiter Rick. Thank you“

“We went to Charleston's for my son-in-laws 50th birthday. Honka was our server. She was awesome and helped us with our questions about menu options. The atmosphere is very cozy and comfortable. The food was delicious and plentiful. We had the gargantuan cheesecake for dessert. Everything was delicious. We will definitely be going back.“

“Great food and great service! 5/5 would highly recommend“

“I just stopped to place a carry out order and was warmly greeted by 3 nice ladies and a duder. I ordered a cheeseburger and hash browns (they don’t have fries). Food was out in 5 minutes and one of the nice ladies touched my shoulder and told me to have a nice rest of my day, sweetheart. The burger was flipping excellent. Not the best bun but it held up and that juicy cheesy burger hit the spot. Never ordered hash browns with a burger before but their hash browns were fantastic. Crispy but not at all dry or burnt. Great staff, great food, clean place, quick, and there was a bunch of old foagies . Doesn’t get much better.“

“Yesterday was my first time at Divvy and it was FANTASTIC. The best part was our server Danielle who was so patient, kind and has all the recommendations for us. She was AMAZING 😍“

“A truly magical place! I have never experienced anything quite like it! Delicious food, drinks, and desserts! Champagne raspberry cake was delightful!!“

“Everything was absolutely delicious! Service was amazing and it was nice to be able to sit outside on the covered patio. Will definitely return! We had the tenderloin sandwich and it was huge and very good! Rubs fell right off the bone and great flavor, horseradish cheese and crackers was great and I’m not a huge horseradish person, and the volcano cake was heavenly! Will definitely be back!“

“Great food, beers, and service!“

“We have been frequently going to Sunrise for over 25 years! We love it!“

“We live in Noblesville but get carry-out at the Carmel location and are never disappointed. We love the pecan crusted chicken salad and the salmon with Brussels sprouts and pan-fried rice. And their Ranch dressing is great.“

“Amazing experience here! Came late and got perfect food and service from the store manager! She was so nice and even replaced our ice cream bc my friend just didn’t like that flavor. The food was so delicious as always. Also the music they play is so great so many throwback songs. We were jamming to the Macarena haha. Thank you!“

“We went to Woody's today for lunch. It was our first visit but won't be our last. The service was fast and friendly. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was perfect! I highly recommend Woody's!“

“Great food Excellent portions“

“Extremely impressed when we went there for lunch today. Very friendly staff and the food was fast and amazing!!!!! Will be visiting there again very soon.“

“My favorite restaurant inside of Sun King Carmel by far. I miss their mussels something fierce, but I've found in the past that their smashburger really satisfies. This time, however, it was not a smashburger. The patties were definitely not smashed, did not have the signature crispy edges of a smashburger, and both were even still pink in the middle. If you want to see how a smashburger is done right, go to Sun King Fishers and look what One Trick Pony is doing. Still, I'm going to keep coming back and will definitely order another "smashburger" because it's delicious.“

“Without having a restaurant in Fort Wayne anymore, we tend to stop at this location when we get close. The beef Manhattan is among my favorite meals in my life. Consistent and super delicious almost every time. The pies are fantastic. I personally love the coconut cream pie and the lemon cream pie. All are top notch. Always a good selection of comfort food entrees available and look fantastic. I leave happy and look forward to my next trip through Indy.“

“First time eating here, staff was quick and friendly during somewhat busy of time. Food was above average just different style than I am used to eating. Seating is a little close together so not very wheel chair friendly as I had to ask 2 people to please stand up and move their chair to get my dad to our table. Overall was good and nice place to eat.“

“We tried Juniper on Main for the first time today, and couldn't have been more thrilled! My daughter had the Charleston style shrimp and grits and I had the lemon taragon grilled chicken which was amazing, and both were just phenomenally great tasting! Our server Alix was a complete delight and we can't wait to return to try more dishes.“

“Came in with a group, we had the upstairs room then told we had to be gone by 7pm We reserved the room at 515. So with that said, servers ok. Food came at 645. Manager told the group that we need to be out by then. 7pm because it was reserved for another group at 7. He told us that the staff didn’t inform him about it. Really kinda not our problem at that time. We were 30+ strong. Kids and all. I walked out at 715. Doesn’t seem right. Not mad but a concern with staff and communication. Food good, service ok, slow at times , restaurant was not totally full. I could see open tables. Yes I would come back, but come on. The manager should have known of the situation and made a plan B the weather was in the 70’s they could have used the courtyard. Ok sorry done.“

“The food here is absolutely FANTASTIC, scratch kitchen perfection. Great service and atmosphere! You cannot go wrong here.“

“Great food and environment! We love the down home music too!💕💕“

“I often stay at this hotel when visiting family. This bar is very good. Seating is ample, and servers know their stuff. Prices are extremely fair. Food was good at dinner. Breakfast was not very good...lukewarm sides and acrid pancakes. For $18 I expect more quality.“

“great staff and owners. love this place“

“We only stopped by for a beer. The service was excellent. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. The food looked good but we already ate. Ordered the Church Milk Stout and it was delicious and smooth. At over 6% one was enough. Tried the Jack Ringo. Very hot finish!“

“Excellent food. Lots of Mexican restaurants around but not a lot of standouts. This one is superb. Our go to for Mexican cuisine“

“I had such a wonderful on my date here! Our server, Hannah, was the blueprint for customer service. She checked on us plenty and made sure that we were completely taken care of. I follow a strict gluten-free diet, and she was sure to inform me of everything I needed to know to be able to enjoy a safe dinner. We WILL be returning and asking for Hannah! 10/10, thank you so much!“

“Food was pretty good.
Ordered my steak Medium Well.
Plate was full of blood/juice/grease. (should have been a clue). My steak was red inside -probable cooked Rare.
They took it back and then over cooked it, of course.“

“Love this place. The food is great, the service is great. It’s like being at home. Go here way too much. The buildings are very beautiful and you just got to sit on the patio and enjoy the Monon.

Congratulations for getting out of CITY COUNCIL JAIL!!“

“The atmosphere was great. Loved how the interior was, and they also have a second floor, if you want to enjoy your food there. We stayed on the first since there weren't as many people at the time we went . The server was attentive and kind. The food was as good as always.“
