35 Best American Restaurants near Leicester

“This was a 10/10 hit all around! We were just leaving Boston with 5 hour drive ahead of us - Eller's was off our route a bit, but the only place with great reviews and a menu that suited all of us. We could not have been more satisfied with this experience! Portions were huge, food was fresh and well prepared, service was with a smile and super speedy. My favorite part was that you could tell the owner/s take a lot of pride in the quality of the food and the service! On a busy Saturday night, the owner was talking to customers and running food to tables right alongside his crew, and his wife in the kitchen - no surprise why everything was excellent with that level of involvement from the owners! The next time we are in the area we will make a point to return.“

“My Server Jessica was Fantastic again. She is so Friendly to me and all the patrons. The Shepard's Pie and Vanilla Ice Cream were delicious and filling.“

“Attended bridal shower and it was perfect from beginning to end. Everyone complemented the food, service was excellent and all flowed so smoothly. Will be back to try out the restaurant!“

“amazing food great atmosphere“

“The personal service is as amazing as the food!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Val’s recently catered our teacher appreciation luncheon. To say it did not disappoint is an understatement. Food was delicious and portions were huge. Thank you for making ordering and pick up so easy.“

“I always want to try all of Armsby's dishes because they make meals based on what's in season. They have a lot of staples on their menu like the Smash Burger that I absolutely love. I crave the burger and fries here and it's hard to deviate. The drinks are always unique, too. If I just want to have a nice drink after a long week or stop in before some Worcester type event, I would choose Armsby over anything. The staff are always so friendly, too! It's such a Worcester institution and a must-try!“

“We had our wedding at Spencer Country Inn and I truly cannot say enough incredible things about the experience. From start to finish, Amy — the venue coordinator — was an absolute dream to work with. She was organized, reassuring, and genuinely cared about making everything perfect for us. She went above and beyond in every possible way. At one point, I was literally about to walk down the aisle without my bouquet, and Amy stopped me, sprinted back to my room, and got it for me — talk about a lifesaver! I handed her all of my décor the day before, and she set everything up more beautifully than I could have imagined. It felt like she pulled the vision right out of my head. The food was incredible — our guests are still talking about it. Between the amazing service, the historic charm of the venue, and Amy’s unmatched dedication, our day was everything we dreamed of and more. If you’re considering Spencer Country Inn for your wedding or any event — DO IT. And make sure Amy is by your side!“

“My Server John was fantastic. He was very friendly and attentive. He took my order in a timely manner and saw to it that my meal was served hot and as ordered. My Black & White Pizza was delicious and filling. I have been dining at the Black & White Grille for many, many years and have rarely been disappointed.“

“went for Dinner last night and had the Sausage penne pasta in Vodka Sauce and The Pulled Pork Dinner, They never Disappoint. The Apple Gongazola Salad also Amazing.“

“Festive holiday drinks last night were delicious and made us very merry. Fantastic staff, service and dinner too. Just what my elf and I needed.“

“Stopped by this evening to try the new mystic pizza and the chicken bacon ranch. By far the best pizza I’ve ever had 🤤 the flavors are on point, the dough was to die for, and it’s made fresh to order- honestly you can’t go wrong. Whether you catch them in Rochdale or at an event, I promise you won’t be disappointed! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This was my first time dining at the Harvest Grille. The food was delicious, and the waitress was very attentive to our questions and needs. The two of us were seated next to the bar which made our conversation a little more difficult to hear, but it wouldn’t deter me from going again!“

“First visit to oxfords casual dining this past weekend in Oxford and absolutely not our last. Everything was absolutely delicious, and our waitress was super busy but took good care of us. Also got to enjoy some great music from The Drunken Uncles.“

“I recommend their omelets and French toast….they are delicious 😋“

“If you are looking for steak then you are in the right place! Definitely the best steak house in Worcester with great service. Plus they have creme brulee which is a no brainer. A little pricey obviously, but always a great choice if you don't mind spending the money.“

“I am a returning customer! I’ve done my bridal shower here and just had my baby shower. We were very happy with the food buffet, ambiance, price point, and planning. Maria, the manager, is easy to work with, kind and professional! I’ve done extensive research on so many restaurant venues in the Worcester area, and this place I would recommend for its excellent value. Thank you to Maria and the team for all their hard work!“

“I had a delicious hot dog and fries from Major League Roast Beef & Wings in Auburn - the grilled, buttery bun and crispy, perfectly seasoned fries were a great combo.“

“Had Mr. Beast today and it was awesome! will have this again.“

“Today was our first time trying 110 Grill. I'm happy we did! Good service and good food. I have to say I loved the tomato soup! For my dinner I had the lamb meatballs appetizer and a side salad. We'll definitely come back to try more of the menu.“

“This place is such a gem. Right on the lake. It feels like a place you’d need to wait for a seat at in the weekend but also laid back. Great Mass seafood water vibes without all the blah blah that jacks up the price and kills the quality of service.“

“Good food choices and kind & supportive people. I stayed here the last 3 nights so that I could be close to our elder Senior Mom in the Rehabilitation and Nursing Care Center after she had a health crisis. Every front desk person and staff person I have met has been kind, knowledgeable and has gone the extra mile for me to be comfortable and be able to get a little rest and nutrition. Thanks to all at Courtyard by Marriott Worcester.“

“I found myself in Worcester yesterday and searched for vegan food online and found Belmont Vegetarian among others listed. After seeing several pictures of dishes I decided to go! And I’m glad I did! Belmont Vegetarian (where everything is vegan) was delicious and in heaping portions. There’s a smaller (but still big) container for only $17 and change and a giant container (which I obviously got) for $19 and change. I got BBQ, mac n cheese, rice , beans, and chickpeas, and some sweet n sour steak. They also make their own delicious juice with sea moss. I got watermelon. The place is set up for takeout mostly with only 2 dining tables.Definitely worth the drive from NH!“

“Remains the best place to eat in all of central Mass. Great family restaurant operated by 2nd generation family. Top quality meals and good old down home service by friendly folks.“

“I went to the restaurant today! I haven’t been for a very long time. And have not had the pleasure to try after the new owners. Omg!!! I have NEVER had fresher fish in my life!! I got the 2 Way Combo with fried clams and haddock. It was Outstanding!! Usually with fried food at other places I take two bites and I’m done….Nope not today!! The Food, the Service and the atmosphere was PERFECT!! I mean when the owner says can I get you an extra tartar sauce for the table and he brings the whole bottle?? Now that is Class and an Owner that wants his Patrons to come back!!! The waitresses and waiters were TOP NOTCH! I can’t wait to go back!! Fantastic!! Cannot recommend highly enough!!“

“Food was fresh and delicious, but I really wanna comment on our server, Shauna. She was always smiling and happy to serve and checked on us accordingly. Will be back ?“

“Today I ordered the Monti Cristo Sandwich !!! OMG !!! It was So Delicious that I ate the whole thing . I just couldn't Stop Eating it . I also got one to take Home . The Food at Lou Roc's is Incredible !! And the Portions of Food are big . And the Prices are Reasonable . My Friend and I usually go once a Week . But we will return again Tomorrow . Thank you For Such Great Food .“

“Great events, beer, food and staff!“

“The best place I love it and the people that work there to very professional tooo 🙏🙏❤️❤️“

“I’ve been coming here for over 30 years. Couldn’t even begin to count the times. I’ve never been disappointed. If you need your fried clam or scallop fix especially, you’ll get no better than Ronnie’s. Grab an order of fritters too to munch on. Just delicious. The near constant crowds have never lied!“

“I was in your establishment for the very first time today. The atmosphere was very pleasant, service was excellent and the food was delicious and the prices were very reasonable! I plan on returning sometime in the near future! 👍🏻“

“N & J Donuts in Oxford is a hidden gem always fresh, fluffy, and full of flavor! The variety is amazing, and the staff is welcoming and quick. It’s our go-to spot for a sweet start to the day!“

“The food is so warm, comforting, and made with such care. The atmosphere is always festive. Employees and customers are always in a happy mood. The drinks are tasty, refreshing and full of spirit. The chips and salsa are a great start, but be careful not to devour them and spoil the appetite you'll need to tackle your main dish! You'll walk out extremely satisfied because of the wonderful food you consumed. But, you'll also be pleasantly surprised because Pepe's is the best bang for your buck in Worcester. Highly recommended!!!“

“We went for dinner last night & everything was delicious!!! Bill & Jannette were fantastic! Two of us had the veal, one had the seafood medley & I had the chicken salad wrap. We also got the tuna ahi appetizer & a complimentary amuse-bouche. We can’t wait to go back! If you haven’t been there yet, you’re missing out. Also BYOB which is great 🍻🍷“

“Fabulous service, tasty bloody mary (loved the extra horseradish addition), and delicious omlette with lyoniase potatoes!“
