50 Best American Restaurants near Lexington

“Jackson’s Kitchen has been a go to spot for us for years. I love that we can get a salmon dinner with rice pilaf and veggies or an awesome sub or burger. The diverse menu has something for everyone! Don’t miss out on the meatballs or fish tacos either. I end up getting a few dishes- too many good choices.“

“FOOD WAS AWESOME! OUR SERVER DYLAN WAS TOP-NOTCH! THE SCHOOL IS VERY CLEAN! MY FRIENDS AND I CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK!

“Stopped by after hearing the most incredible accolades from restaurant peeps. Wonderful service, great food, delicious and fresh food. But this doesn’t begin to tell the story of being welcomed by more than one employee, seeing an open and clean kitchen and grill right there in open sight. Everything is made from @BoarsHead Deli and from #localproduce. #LowPriced #GreatFare #FriendlyEnvironment #GoNow!“

“Incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable, and attentive staff. Every dish was absolutely delicious, highly recommend the scotch egg and the duck if you go in March. Cocktails were great as well. The atmosphere was cozy and upscale without being stuffy. They were also very kind and accommodating around my wife's rare food allergy. Just an amazing meal and experience all around.

Thank you to the entire staff for a wonderful evening. Hopefully we'll be back soon.“

“Amazing food. Don't miss out on the pasta dishes or the bread. They actually make for great sharing apps. The staff is so nice and welcoming. Drinks are delicious and unique.“

“One of my all time favorite spots in Somerville never had a bad meal. Great vibe and service always suggests it as one of the top spots in Somerville.“

“We stumbled upon Half & Half while searching for a place to get breakfast and stopped in with our 2 yo. Very cute interior with a friendly staff and delicious food. My wife absolutely loved her avocado toast with eggs and my breakfast sandwich was perfectly grilled. We ordered chocolate chip pancakes for our son who also chomped on my home fries and fresh fruit from my wife’s plate. The person who waited on us (the owner?) was exceptionally friendly and stopped off to talk through all of the various types of butter on the table (no, seriously, like four different kinds and all equally amazing!). We will definitely be back for lunch — and more butter.“

“This is really awesome🥰🥰“

“Fantastic atmosphere, amazing food and superb service. Highly recommend!“

“Great takeout spot. Fantastic bread and pastries, delicious sandwiches.

Disco egg & cheese: one of the best egg & cheese sandwiches I've ever had. Perfect little focaccia loaf, egg yolk that's soft but not runny, and some good cheddar. Pickled carrots are the cherry on top.

Earl gray scone: you can taste the earl gray throughout, nice thin but brown crust, soft inside. Perfect scone.

Cornbread muffin: Great cornbread with a nice bit of kosher salt on the top. Good top to bottom. My 13 year old ate it in no time.

House-made cardamom soda: Delicious! was gone in no time.

The owner makes everything herself and she's got some serious skills.“

“First time at Cityside last night and it was great! The Nachos were so good I wish we had gotten a large, the buffalo wings had a nice crisp to them which made them amazing. For entrees I had the fish tacos which were good but not all that and my fiancé had the cheesesteaks which can’t be compared to cheesesteaks on the North shore but still good. The drinks were good but pretty pricey. My fiancé liked every drunk he got besides the Mai Tai. It was super nice being on the roof top which made the entire night 💕 I definitely would recommend.“

“We have had consistently excellent meals @ 80 Thoreau since Chef Gavin entered the kitchen! The dishes are inventive but always enhance the food rather than distract from it. We highly recommend the restaurant to all who live high quality food and excellent execution of a meal.“

“Great place for date night.“

“I have lived in the Boston-esque area for twelve years and have eaten so many good meals, but the fish tacos here are the only meal I needed to have before my upcoming move out west(ern MA). Cocktails are fun and creative, service is 13/10, the XL portions of fries that require to-go boxes are the only fries I’ve ever found to reheat well, and if you’re lucky, Steve will be tending bar. I love going at the slightly quieter times but I’ll never gatekeep the euphoria experienced by a meal here. Bonus perks: Max & Chelsea have the best senses of humor, the murals on the patio are always amazing, the beer and wine selection are vast (also the mocktails!), and the decor always feels like your favorite “I Spy” book.“

“Fabulous food. Great coffee. What more can you ask for???“

“Vertigo Trio would like to thank Prep Neighborhood Kitchen for an incredible meal at our gig in their restaurant last night. Just absolutely fabulous! These guys are like "Bear" but with less swearing and death threats!“

“This was my Daughter's birthday weekend and we wanted to Take her to one of the places that Guy Fieri Visited for DDD...making memories. What we got was so much more. Truthfully the Best dining experience we have EVER experienced. The hostess was super friendly and immediately made accommodations due to the fact that I am currently in a wheelchair. The atmosphere was astonishing!!! The food...we truly cannot say enough good things about an are planning when to take the trip from Vermont again to get more. We were blown away . However the highlight of our evening hands down was our Server Kevin!!! He made my Daughter's night ...focused on making her smile and gave her a piece of cheesecake to celebrate. We will remember this forever and simply cannot thank you enough“

“Exceptional experience. The tasting menu at Fallow Kin was outstanding from start to finish. Each plate had its own unique flavor and expression, thoughtfully crafted and beautifully presented. The chefs’ explanations of each dish and the sommelier’s guidance through the wine pairings made the experience even more engaging and memorable. Truly incredible. Highly recommend!“

“Everything was great! Service and food was excellent!“

The food is delicious, and it's great to support small business.
Which sandwich to get is always a hard decision, but I usually get either the Caprese or the classic 3 cheese, sometimes with bacon.“

“We went on a Sunday afternoon for a late lunch. There were so many options to choose from but my husband decided on a pizza from Lala’s Neapolitan-ish Pizza. The size of pizza for the price is good. I got the Cheesy Ramen from Ms. Clucks Deluxe. It was delicious!! My husband saw their chicken sandwich and already decided what he will be getting next time we go and we don't even live in the state (lol). It wasn't crowded at all at the time we went in. There were plenty of open seats (both bar top height and regular height tables). We can't wait to go back.“
