21 Best American Restaurants near Gardner

“Step into an old style diner where the walls are lined with photos and sketches of famous celebrities. If you’re in Gardner, KS, and looking for good burgers and cheesesteaks, this is an excellent place with friendly staff.“

“Customer service and food quality is always top tier.

Time and time again, we consistently receive excellent customer service. The staff is so friendly and helpful. We're always impressed at their level of training, friendly demeanors, and willingness to help their customers.

The food is always fresh and high quality. We typically do a pick up order and the food is always bagged well and still hot.

Also, I can't stress enough how much I appreciate that Culver's offers a gluten free bun. And I really appreciate that the bun comes separately in it's own sealed bag. The brand of gluten free bun is also, easily, the best gf bun I've ever had. Very soft and flavorful. Which to anyone who is gluten free, you know how rare that is.

Thank you again to our local Culver's for always being such a joy to visit!“

“Tumbleweeds is one of those places that just feels welcoming the moment you walk in. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and the kind of service that keeps people coming back. The food was fresh, flavorful, and portions were generous. You can tell they truly care about their customers and take pride in what they do. Definitely a local favorite and well worth the visit! We made a reservation and came after my daughter’s graduation. The owner came and explained the menu and the cook came out to check on us after we were served. Our server was fantastic.“

“Always great food, service and atmosphere 👌. After having an absolute disaster of a 4th of July camping, (bad rain storm 😑) dinner, coffee ☕, and some pie was the 2nd winner of the evening, (my wife is first). Thank you.“

“The restaurant is always immaculately clean and the service has been consistently awesome. Employees routinely thank me for my military service. The quality of these young people reflects very positively upon their character as individuals and it serves well to illustrate the high standard applied during their their hiring process. FIVE STARS across the board!“

“In the past, my husband and I have totally enjoyed our steak and bbq ribs. This time we ordered from the pick two menu. The Cajun chicken Philly was bland. That was a disappointment. Even my husband's burger was too plain. We won't quit you, but please make those certain items better.“

“Staff always so cordial and the place is clean and inviting. We enjoy our brunch every time 🤗“

“A wonderful staple of Olathe for over 40 years, offering great food and a warm, friendly atmosphere.“

“We attended a private event for approximately 50 guests at Austin's on Lone Elm this weekend. The taco bar was quite tasty, and stocked repeatedly for our group as needed. While the party was fun, it was ever more memorable due to our two servers, Mikaela and Jeremy. These two were so fun, exuberant and hard working professionals. Their constant smiles while keeping up with the drink orders with precision was fantastic! They were go getters from the start and made an already fun day even better. Great employees, good food, thank you Austin's Lone Elm for a great experience!“

“A great meal and they have reasonably priced burgers and other items to have when you want to have a great meal. I recommend to go as they make some good burgers.“

“We can hear tonight for the first time based on its online reviews. It exceeded our expectations on the food, the restaurant, and the service. Everything was excellent - highly recommend the deviled eggs and buffalo wings. Awesome, the burger and salmon were very good. We will definitely be back.“

“All I can say is WOW! I was seated immediately and asked what I would like to drink. Within one minute I had coffee and Ice water in front of me. My order was taken within two minutes. I ordered The Shoe. And it was totally amazing! My server Julie was very efficient. She was extremely warm and engaging. A very clean, cozy, and comfortable place to eat. They made me feel like I was in my Mom's kitchen. Kudos to the owner and your whole team. This was my first time here. And I can tell you, I will definitely be back!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👨🏼‍🍳“

“Love their hash browns and gravy. They're so friendly and the service is great!“

“Stopped in after church Sunday with my wife. The atmosphere was calm, peaceful, and genuinely pleasant– exactly what you want to ease into the afternoon. The food was on point, and the service matched it step for step. Everything just flowed right. Solid experience all around.“

“A great pizza place with televisions for games and fun. Service was absolutely slammed with orders which caused a slight delay but the food stayed consistently good. Servers are on top of their game! Our only complaint was the tiramisu was a solid brick straight from the freezer which made it difficult to eat. We made the best of it and considered it ice cream.“

“We set a reservation with The Blue Moose two days in advance for a party of 30 composed of my daughter's soccer team and parental entourage. Marla and the staff took great care of us with prompt service and delicious food. The Blue Moose is a great choice for any group coming over from the Garmin Soccer Complex. Five stars all the way, and thanks again for the great meal.“

“We go to both locations, both are great! Love Taco Tuesday for sure but Burger Monday is yummy as well The wife loves the wraps. We both have eatem salads there and they are exceptional.“

“I came over here for breakfast with my 3 kids while waiting for my tires at discount tire. While the wait was long, we had a very long wait for the tires anyways so it didn’t matter much at all. This morning we had Patricia as our server, food runner and host. She was amazing. I watched multiple people come in and leave and even leave at the tables when waiting for food. She was extremely nice, especially in the condition. No ac, doing it all alone she was doing her best. The food was great. Probably the best Omelet i’ve had, especially their hollandaise sauce, it was delicious and worth the wait! Let this be a reminder to the people who were very mean, she tried her best under extreme heat and doing it all solo! She was wonderful so professional and incredibly sweet. Even when someone came to here as she was taking my tables order and said being shortstaffed is not an excuse and she should be ashamed of the service. She apologized sincerely and was very polite, and she even apologized to us for the people getting ang rt with her while she was taking our orders. It’s not her fault, she absolutely was great. So attentive, even brought my kids free fruit to snack on while we waited which was so sweet. Always be kind to people, i understand you can be frustrated, but also remember they are just as frustrated. Always be the reason someone smiles today!“
