American Restaurants near Independence

“Brunch was delicious and many interesting options!“

“Very underrated. We eat here during the day, late morning/early afternoon about once a month. Service is always very good and food is good as well.
The downfall would be that even at 11 in the morning it's dark. And while I don't remember seeing people smoke in the establishment, there are ashtrays available.“

“My wife was craving some chicken wings tonight so we drove up the road to the local BWW. The family had to have the usual nacho platter to start off with. It could have used a bit more queso but it was still good nonetheless. They had a limited time cajun sauce that I decided to try and I really couldn't tell much of a difference from the other sauces I usually get. Our waitress was very attentive and kept the drinks full.“

“Chat GPT had directed us here on Saturday the 4th. The food was great! My son and I each had the Salmon with Sweet Potato fries. We had both flown in from 2 different states for a couple of attractions. After the Salmon we finished off a huge slice of Carrot Cake. The best I have ever had. Annie M was very attentive, kind and had a very happy face. For everyone, actually. I just wanted to say how pleased and surprised we were with how good everything was. And I also wanted to compliment Annie M.“

“I knew it would be a cool place when the door knobs were gas pumps. Everything was detailed down to the napkin rings. It lived up to its name for sure. The food was amazing! Our waitress Cozy, I can't say enough about her. She had the best personality, super sweet and when we had decided what we wanted she definitely told us about our choices, like how they are prepared, what they come with and if she had tried them herself. I will definitely be back.“

We came here on vacation from South Carolina and didn’t know anything to do around here with small children and she went way out of her way to help find us something to do! Also was my son’s 3rd birthday and she went above and beyond to make sure his day was amazing!!! Overall great service and food! Amazing!!!!!

The cooks (Nick, Stephen, Jack, Jimmy, and Glen) are always top notch. With great people like JR, Jamie, Madi, and Jasmine adding amazing conversation and the best drinks you've ever had!

“Fun atmosphere. Fun was good. Some of the bartenders were fun, if only they would make eye contact! They weren’t that busy yet we had to wave them down for refills, to order, to get a box (when we got their attention for a box it was another good 10 minutes b4 they arrived) and then had to get their attention to pay! Not attentive at all!“

“Everything is AMAZING!!!!“

“On a snowy day when cooking at home felt like a bad life choice, we were very thankful Greyhound Grill was open. It was fried chicken night, so we went with the family entrée and it absolutely hit the spot. Service was great, food was wonderful, and it was pure comfort from start to finish. Honestly, I don't think any restaurant in Cincinnati cooks closer to mom's way (she gets six stars) than this place. The kind of meal that makes you slow down, clean your plate, and feel like you made the right decision leaving the house.“

“Attached is a letter submitted to Cracker Barrel in Cold Springs, Ky to express an appreciation for a job well done. Amy, Manager at Cracker Barrel in Cold Springs, Ky impressed us with her friendly demeanor and willingness to take the time to ask our table if the food is to our liking. Outstanding food and staff (Server/Manager) interaction. ( 5 Star) rating re: the excellence in dining atmosphere and quality of food.“

“First time here, and won’t be our last. Excellent service, great food, and delicious margaritas!!“

“My experience here was wonderful! Good food, great customer service, and a great atmosphere!!“

“The best of all chili parlors in Cincinnati. Meatier chili and better taste. Fast, friendly service. Always a treat!“

“Absolutely beautiful boutique! So many great gift options for the upcoming Christmas season. Add to that a welcoming and friendly staff and this place is going to be a huge success!“

“Let me start with saying if you’re looking for good food, good vibes and super service THIS is the place. Also, super conveniently located right off the exit and right next to Trader Joe’s - can we say DOUBLE WIN We swung in just for some brews and bites and hit the jackpot! The band was in full swing - highly recommend checking out Second Take if you’re in the Cinci region - we lucked out and caught the show right as we sat down. Super chill environment too, not overcrowded and our waitress Stevie was PHENOMENAL 👌 Quick to grab our drinks, didn’t forget me when I asked for refills, grabbed our apps out the gate and hooked us on the napkins because ya girl is a messy eater 😆 she even answered my 100 questions about what local brews they offer (which, if this is your forte, def check out their selection - I was impressed) Anywho, 10/10 service, food, atmosphere and generally just a cool spot to check out that’s 15 min from anywhere as soon as you hit the highway in the Queen City 🤙“

“I went to Herb and Thelma’s for the first time. It did not disappoint. Very tasty, juicy burgers. Delicious sauerkraut. Manhattan to rival any other Manhattan from an upscale bar. Everyone is friendly. Such a fun atmosphere. Be prepared to be surprised by the food and friendly atmosphere. Cash only.“

“We stopped here after a concert at Riverbend, and it did not disappoint. Really good pizza (we ordered two but I only got a pic of the one) and they were both absolute fire. Our server Ann was awesome, she took good care of us and was fun to talk to. A really great bartender. The other customers around and some off work staff made it such a fun hang. We’ll definitely make this place our after-concerts hang out whenever we come back to town 💜“

“My husband and I love Cracker Barrel. The food is tasty. The coffee is good...better than most! And we like the friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The hostess Tammy has been there forever and we feel like she is a friend. The food is also reasonably priced. The store has some beautiful items. I just bought some of the cutest baby items!“

“I had great service from all employees especially Shannon. When I come in she always has a smile and excellent service. I give this store a 11 on a 1-10 scale.“

“Today was my first visit to First Watch & i don't expect it to be my last, as there is so much on the menu that i want to try. Today was their French Toast & it was absolutely delicious. I do recommend First Watch in Florence Square.“

“Four buddy's and I stopped by for our first visit last night. Gus was on point with his attentive service and knowledgeable beer descriptions. Tried the Crazy Norse(I'm not an IPAer, but it was fantastic) and the "Route 9"(a smooth Lager) Outstanding!! 👍👍 The Cod sandwich was excellent!! Ashley's prompt support with the food and drink delivery helped to make our visit a highly enjoyable experience! We'll be back soon!!“

“The flavors of the food and atmosphere is phenomenal.“

“Stopped back in after several years. Still the same great place. Unique atmosphere and best wings around.“

“First time here. Plenary of parking, restaurant was very clean. Service was fantastic! Overall, a good value. I just couldn’t give it that 5th star yet.

My server suggested the half sandwich combo which comes with a potato pancake and cup of soup. I let her pick for me and she brought beef barley soup which was delicious! The Rueben was really good, although just a tad light on the pastrami for my taste. But a really good sandwich, nonetheless. The potato pancake had good flavor and seasoning but texturally, was a bit rubbery. It was difficult to cut and chew. Finally, the sweet tea… oh man it’s divine! Yum!

I’ll definitely be back soon to try other things!“

“Wow soooo good! I had the seafood platter! It was sooo good!!! Loved all of it. That asparagus was to die for!!!! Yummy!!! 5*****“

“Everything was juicy and the portions were great. Most places seem to use turkey and sausage as a filler or a garnish, but we were pleasantly surprised by how flavorful they were. As for the sides, the potato salad, baked beans, and of course the mac and cheese hit the spot. Well done guys!“

“This Culver’s is good. I do recommend it. However, tonight when we went through the line, we sat for about 10-15 minutes before getting to place our order then waited an additional 15 at the window for our order. John, who is a teenager— was the only employee taking orders and apparently making those orders as well. He was friendly at the window to us and didn’t appear to be in a bad mood. There were other employees working with him, yet it appeared he was getting zero help from them. We could hear from the drive through window that there were female employees laughing and carrying on in the background. It’s clear that they were not helping with the drive through one bit. Keep in mind, the dining area was completely empty… I really feel bad for John, he was quite literally working alone and the drive through was pretty busy. Whoever else was “working” with him should be written up.“
