28 Best American Restaurants in Manhattan

“Great service and loved the small plate options! The menu was delicious!“

“Fast, friendly and great food. We’ve yet to finish everything on our plate!!!“

“Awesome lunch today! Blackberry mojitos were a great addition! The glasses they serve them were crazy (tilted) but added to the experience!“

“My daughter brought the noon special today bierocks with German potato salad and drink very very good I would highly recommend this place. Washington needs a good HOMEMADE cafe even the bread was homemade. Only reason why it’s 4.9 stars is because hamburger was to brown and the potato salad was a little too oily for my comfort. BUT WE WILL be back. Like she told my daughter they’re learning so give them a chance“

“Great selection. friendly staff. Highly recommend.“

“I worked at meadowlark for over a year and recently had to move back to my hometown. I just wanted to say that I enjoyed my time at meadowlark, and am proud to say that I used to work for them. I wish I could’ve picked up the facility and moved it all with me. No other facility can compete with the amount of attention and level of care that these residents receive. The households help it feel more like a home, and the staff is always kind and treat the residents with respect, and like they’re family. I work with a nurse at my new job who worked at meadowlark when he was in nursing school, and we’ve had so many good stories to share with each other and talk about how good of a facility meadowlark is. I miss so many staff members and residents dearly. I applaud you, meadowlark!!!“

“we ate there tonight and everything was great, but what made the evening was an act of kindness above and beyond expectations. Our son brought in a mechanical pencil with a little fox on it that he got as part of his Christmas present from his teacher, and accidentally left it behind. We got to the car and he realized it was missing and was on the verge of crying. We went back in and found the table had been cleaned and reset... and the pencil laid very nicely on the edge. A worker had found it and realized it might be special to someone. That someone was my son. So thank you for your simple act of kindness that made my son smile.“

“10/10 on the grilled chicken sandwich, service, and drinks! Always a great time!“

“I’ll recommend it because the food was good. The service was terrible. Waited 10 minutes for a waitress to take our drink order then I received my appetizer before my drink. I had no silverware to eat said appetizer with. The waitress wasn’t friendly to add to the dissatisfaction. Maybe she just had a bad day, so I’ll go back. The caramel butter cake was to die for!“

“I love the attention to details the employees demonstrate. Plus, the fresh fruits and veggies are so exciting to my palate.“

“Another great visit to MHK and the Chef. The s'mores hot chocolate is 🔥“

“They have a ton of these restaurants all over the country and I have yet been let down. Well once, many moons ago and it had more to do with the seafood rather than the main character. But other than that, this is a place I can consistently get good meat at. The steak has always been prepared to my liking and they have never let me down on their medium rares, that's all I ask for. I've had several of their appetizers, one in particular which I believe they don't serve anymore but it was their fried shrimp with asian sauce. If you get this, please bring it back, for a limited time. This establishment is located in Manhattan Kansas, decent amount of parking, even if you have to do a minute of walking, you'll find some parking eventually. The decor is medium dark, wooden, like a manly den. Everything was clean and the staff was friendly and once we got the ball rolling, attentive. This place can get pretty busy so just be aware of the parking or waiting on a table.“

“The employees I would like to recognize is the one with the blueish green in her hair and a younger taller kid w glasses on night crew, She has been there since it opened. Always very pleasant, and always busy. Every time we go there she always up and down the counter area but always make time to talk w customers. We went there for dinner one night and had a bad experience, food not right, ppl standing around, and the dining area wasnt very clean. A younger employee with glasses offered to fix our order and was very pleasant. There was a guy w a culvers hoodie on and another lady was there who had a baby and was behind the counter, then came back out w no baby and just joined in w the ppl just standing. I will continue to go there but def not at night“

“Fast, friendly and great food. We’ve yet to finish everything on our plate!!!“

“Self service on the beer taps“

“By far, my favorite restaurant in Kansas!“

“My first visit in over a year because of COVID-19. The double dish of custard was absolutely perfect. Friendly, courteous staff! .“

“Sat at the table next to the open front window area, great view. We had a great waitress who took good care of us and she put up with us quite well. The food was amazing, loved the atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Very nice! Great ambiance and friendly staff. I had the reuben sandwich, and it was really tasty! Definitely recommend! 😋“

“Cordial atmosphere for a passionate Wildcat“

“I love Ihop“

“Disappointing Service and Unprofessional Behavior I recently had a truly unpleasant dining experience here. Despite the initial inconvenience of being seated at an undesirable table, I was willing to overlook it. However, the subsequent events were entirely unacceptable. After expressing my disappointment to the manager about the host's misleading information, I was shocked to be verbally abused by the same host at my workplace. This level of unprofessionalism and disrespect is completely unacceptable. I urge management to address this issue promptly and take appropriate action. Such behavior tarnishes the reputation of the establishment and creates a hostile environment for both customers and staff.“

“So, we ordered the Pot Roast for Thanksgiving and I have to say it was absolutely delicious. Every bit as good as the Turkey we got from them last year. Our family highly recommends Arrow entrees for any of your holiday needs. Oh, and just in case you want to try it you can hopefully get it as an entree at Arrow Bodega.“

“I had the best service tonight! Jonathan was our server and he was so attentive and prompt with everything! I did a last minute order change and he was so quick to get it figured out quickly. The food was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend asking for Jonathan if you come here. Not only was he friendly but he was very Patient with my kids! 10 out of 10!!!!!!“

“Stopped in for a late lunch and we received excellent service and amazing food! Highly recommended the Asiago club!“

“Great food and cocktails with friendly, attentive staff.“

“Kites is so good that if the wait was over a year, I'd still Wait— edit 12/5 as we approach the Christmas season I think back to what it was like to have family. Now all I know is the festive feeling of waiting. I just wanted to place a simple order for the buffalo wings. The only thing keeping me going is the carolers outside spreading Christmas cheer by singing loud for all to hear— edit 5/14 gone is my life. I’ve missed so many occasions with my family. My grandmother passed away and I missed new years with my wife. She doesn’t even look at me anymore. I sleep on Kite's door stop. The endless waiting for "Wing the dang day" buffalo wings has become my life. Why can't i order? Is a take out order such a burden that they must ruin a life? I won’t give up. I’ll keep waiting.“
