25 Best American Restaurants near Winona Lake

“One of our favorites. Great staff and wonderful food!“

“I have been to the boathouse restaurant several times and I enjoy coming. I was there this evening and I ordered a side of asparagus. I often order a side of vegetables and I specifically ask that there being no oil on the vegetables. And every time they put oil on them. The only way I can seem to get this request met is to have to send the waiter or waitress back to the kitchen and have it redone. I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to just get plain steamed vegetables upon request. I really enjoy food I get otherwise, and I usually have good service, I just cannot seem to get food that isn’t all coded in oil.“

“Absolutely the best hands down great food great people above and beyond“

“Absolutely love this place and have never had a bad experience, apart from getting my lunch all over my pants 😅 The food is very high quality and there are options for many dietary preferences/needs at an affordable cost compared to many of Warsaw's 'nicer' restaurants. Servers here are very nice and patient, food comes out incredibly quick even when they are extremely busy, and the atmosphere is quite cozy. Could not recommend more!“

“Food was delicious! We had a softball tourney at the CCAC, planned on going to the Creighton Egg but the wait was too long. I found this place on Google and called to see how long the wait was. We were able to walk right in for brunch. It is a really nice place. The names on the menu made us feel out of place. "Duck fat fries", but everything we ordered was DELICIOUS, including the fries!!! It was filling. Everyone got plenty to eat! It was a relaxed environment and we will be returning to the Hoosier Proper. :)“

“It's been a while since I've been here and I've been missing out! The food is great and the service is even better. Everyone is so friendly. They have quite the selection to various foods to choose from; it's quite the nice change. I'll definitely be going back Thank you to the staff for being so friendly.“

“Great food items at reasonable cost.“

“There are very few places that after 40 years in the restaurant industry that excite me. This is one of them! I can't wait to return to try so many items on their menu. Our server Julie was a pro and made us feel like we've been coming there for years, despite it being our first time. The restaurant was clean and well run, even the young ladies running the door and bussing knew what they were doing. The atmosphere was upbeat and fun, the decorating theme is tropical tiki but it's not too kitschy. While the menu is very seafood heavy(that's what brought us there), I'd have to say that there is something delicious for everyone. They are know to serve up a great steak and decadent pasta dishes. The sushi menu is incredible. The menu has so many tantalizing seafood dishes that I won't go into detail. Desserts are house made and are wonderful. We can't wait to return very soon!“

“I had a meal they catered, it was great Pulled Chicken, Pulled Pork, Green Beans all were excellent. Tell your friends“

“I look forward to going to the downtown every Friday night, the entire staff is always welcoming! Not to mention the great drinks and food!“

“Brooke was amazing! Took my mother here for brunch. It was her first time! Brook was astounding. Offered great suggestions. Checked on us a few times, never let our drinks empty, had a great smile! Fast, friendly, clean, and good food. We will be coming back!“

“The Diner is exactly what you think of when you think of a small town diner. Fantastic and friendly faces, comfort food that is delicious and filling, and an atmosphere that reminds you of a simpler time when people were able to slow down and enjoy life. Whether you stop by for a cup of coffee and some pancakes or a soda and a burger, you won't be disappointed!“

“First off, Mary is the most fun and freaking BESTEST waitress/bar tender!!!! She was super attentive but didn’t hover and was always so super nice when she came over!! I wish we lived in Warsaw so I could come eat here more often!!!!!!

Second, I miss Ruby Tuesdays in Fort Wayne! Why would you leave me?!? Now we’re gonna have to make regular trips to Warsaw to come see Mary and eat yummy salad bar!!!!!!!! 😍😍“

“Great food! Awesome bartenders!“

“Greeted at the door. Pretty busy. Staff very helpful and well trained. Salads were a nice, healthy surprise.

It was a bit of a surprise to find dinner is not the same as a meal, no beverage included. Prices are getting higher, without a doubt.“
