50 Best American Restaurants near Norfolk

“We tried the Horse recently. Courteous staff, nice menu selections. Great food. We will be back“

“Sat at the bar and that bartender was movin'!!! She was slammed with not only the bar patrons, but also service bar and still managed to provide fantastic service.
After recently discovering Mashed Potato pizza's I was anxious to try one at a place that specializes in bar pizza, but I was left underwhelmed. It was good, but the potatoes could have been seasoned a tad more to provide a bit more flavor. Otherwise, it was a fantastic stop!“

“I go to Novato’s and pick up from there often. Every meal I have had has been very good! The staff is courteous and attentive. If you’re looking for a drink and apps with friends, picking up for lunch or a night you don’t want to cook, or a night out for dinner, this is the place! Can’t say enough good things. It’s a go to for any time you want great food and service!“

“Great food and service! We highly recommend this place!“

“Once again?.. a terrific meal . Two of us grabbed two seats barside… awesome service… split a seafood plate with my dinner companion. Big shoutout to Dan… who never fails to pop over and say hello. Great food…. Ambience… staff…“

“Jimbo's dinner is well worth your visit. If you value high quality food and food prep processing (their home fries are to die for!) you will not be disappointed. The Hungry Lumberjack breakfast is my favorite. If you pay close attention to the food you will be enjoying you'll understand my review. Don't miss out on an opportunity to be blissfully surprised :)“

“My family and I were there for Marisa the food and service were great. We are all thinking about her and can’t wait to see her again. Get well soon“

“I recently placed a large order (14 pizzas, plus salad) for our monthly work meeting. I can't say enough good things about the awesome customer service, and the quality of the food! Everything was hot and delicious. They have a great selection of your standard pizza shop varieties, but also offer some interesting and unusual offerings. I highly recommend the 'Don't be an Ah-so'! I will definitely be ordering from The Corner Market again!“

“We just went for the first time - we have previously been to the shoveltown brewery in Easton - to say we loved station 1 was an understatement! Everything was fantastic! Shout out to Alexa as our server- she was wonderful. Can’t wait to go back & bring more family and friends.“

“Amazing how food! Great atmosphere! Friendly staff!“

“First time at this restaurant and I was impressed. The food was plentiful and the staff were very friendly. I will definitely be dining there again.“

“Had a delicious dinner last night at Avenue and wish we had checked it out sooner. Amazing wine and cocktail. Tried the Brie appetizer and Avenue Flatbread, which were both delicious and unique! Spiro, our server, was so attentive and knowledgeable. Service was excellent! Wish we had room for dessert bc that also sounded great but I guess we just have to go back soon“

“Last week we had a rehearsal dinner in the banquet room. The room was ready for us upon arrival and we were greeted by the friendly staff. We had a buffet dinner that was excellent and the trays were replenished often. The staff was outstanding getting our drinks out in a timely manner and checking in often. Requests made throughout the night were handled right away. I would high recommend having your next event at this venue.

“Service was fantastic by Gina. No complaints on the food.“

“I frequent this deli as the ones in my town are not that great. It helps that my son loves Superette sandwiches and subs. The turkey Fitzgerald is a classic and their bread and meats are always fresh. Also a plaid we can get Framingham Baking Pizza without having to go all the way to Framingham. Probably go back every 2 weeks.“

“The food was very good! My salmon was cooked just how I love it. The pineapple rice was delicious and to top it all off a to die for desert! The Irish cream cheese cake was the best!“

“Excellent people exc food great prices!“

“We had such amazing yummy good, the potato flatbread and the eggplant ciabatta! Yum!! Better than this was our waitress, Erika, if you go, ask for her! She is amazing.thanks for a great experience!“

“Had a great meal last night - showed up a little later after a high school b-ball game and had fast service, great servers, and amazing food. I was starving because I missed lunch - had tuna tartare app (best I have had in a while), ceased salad starter, and halibut entree. All courses were A+!“

“Went for the first time yesterday. WONDERFUL...the food..the staff. Can't wait to go back! Run, don't walk to Anthony's on the Green, you will enjoy!“

“Great food with a fantastic server named Emily“

“Found by accident, amazing food - best I’ve had so far on our trip to New England, heartily recommend“

“Drinks and burgers were delicious; however waited 45 minutes to be seated on a Saturday night (which is fine!). Menu states that on busy times you may be limited to 90 minute dining. At an hour in, the host sat another large party who was expecting our table. We still had drinks to finish but felt uncomfortable as people were smooshed on the bench discussing when we left they’d be able to spread out.“

“I have been coming here the last few years. Service is incredible and the quality of the meat is so much better then all the other breakfast places.

Owner greats you with a smile every time you come in and makes everyone feel welcome.

Try the irish breakfast! Only place around that has traditional irish meats“

“Great food, best Steak tips around.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Dining Experience From the very first moment we stepped into 3, we knew the night was going to be special. We were immediately welcomed by the manager, Elyse, whose professionalism, warmth, and genuine hospitality set the tone for the entire evening. The atmosphere was inviting, comfortable, and perfectly balanced between upscale and relaxed—and the staff mirrored that energy from start to finish. Our service was truly outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, and always pleasant. Every question we had was answered with confidence, and the recommendations were spot-on. You could tell the staff genuinely cared about creating an exceptional experience. The evening began with perfectly crafted and beautifully presented martinis, followed by warm, flavorful focaccia bread that immediately set the stage for what was to come. The calamari appetizer was incredibly fresh, tender, and packed with flavor, and the charcuterie board was both visually stunning and deliciously curated. The entrees were nothing short of amazing. The ribeye was cooked to absolute perfection—melt-in-your-mouth tender and bursting with flavor. The pesto tortellini was rich, creamy, and indulgent, with every bite leaving us wanting more. What started as a simple date night turned into an experience we couldn’t stop talking about—and one we can’t wait to repeat. If you’re looking for incredible food, exceptional service, and a truly memorable night out, look no further. We’ll absolutely be back again very soon. Highly recommend. 🍸🥩✨“

“They catered a family reunion at my home last weekend. My family is Gujarati and this restaurant just hit it out of the park!!! Every esoteric Gujarati dish was a hit. We did puri, patra, mango ras, pulao, kadhi. Just outstanding! My family was raving about the food. The service and Anil’s responsiveness was on point. This place is run by true professionals!!!“

“Great family owned & operated restaurant!“

“Went for Mothers Day brunch.Excellent.great variety,food was hot,our waitress was very personable.Mons all got complimentary Prosecco. The building is amazing! Plan to return and ask to be seated on covered ,bridge.“

“The fruit tart is DELICIOUS! We drove all the way from attleboro to get these and they did not dissapoint!!“

“I’ve gone to One Bistro in Norwood again and again for the last couple of years and not only is it my new favorite restaurant because of the best food I’ve ever had but the service is friendly and relatively quick. Absolutely recommend adding this to your list of places to try!“

“Always great food, cooked to order, no microwaves! My all time favorite is their flagship sandwich, “The Commonwealth.” Piled high with freshly pulled pork, some pieces bigger than others, some with the delicious bark that defines great smoked pork. I love the optional cranberry habanero sauce on the side. Considering the sandwich has over a pound of pulled pork, plus a side ( I traditionally get fries, my wife likes the creamy Mac and cheese), not a bad deal for under $13 with tax.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Augusta’s in Foxboro. What made my experience so enjoyable was Kelsey’s exceptional and attentive service. She made sure I had everything I needed, and was quick to get me anything else I desired. What makes me want to come back is not just the delicious food, but Kelsey’s warm and friendly presence and helpful attitude.“

“Great owners and clientele!“

“Best roast beef anywhere around“

“Awesome service. The servers there are tight AF. They are fantastic. The food is great. A+“

“Great Service and Food 🥰🥰“

“Mick Morgan’s is the perfect place if you’re looking to host an event. Lindsay Nichols, the events manager, is very accommodating and the staff is wonderful. The Guinness Room is the perfect size and in the warmer weather you have access to the deck. I ordered the appetizer buffet and the food was great.“

“that is very rude oh so now u are bringing up the elder people Dylan G and u are saying there is food in the food the resan i am being rude is because u are being rude“

“I had an event this weekend for 50 people and James’ catered the food. It was a brunch, that included pastries, muffins, fruit, sandwiches, and quiches. The food was outstanding!!!!! James helped me plan the menu, he was accommodating, and everything was exactly as promised. The cost was extremely reasonable. I strongly recommend James’ without hesitation if you needed a caterer!!!! Thank you James, well done!!!!!“

“I ordered a small order of nachos and asked for no hot peppers and not sauce drizzled on the top
I asked instead of the drizzle to have sour cream
I was given a small container of sour cream
When the bill arrived I was charged a ridiculous price of $2.50
I am absolutely flawed that I was charged this ridiculous price
I am absolutely beside myself for having to deal with stupidity“

“We LOVE Kravings!! There is always something for each member of our family to enjoy when we go there for dinner. The owners are amazing and so is their ice cream. Definitely recommend 100%“

“Delicious food! Everything was perfect! Highest compliments to the Chef!“

“Having been to this location years ago, I expected pretty much the same. We had lunch this week and it was pretty good.

We were a group of three and were greeted and seated immediately. I ordered the coconut shrimp and it was delicious. It came with a fresh pineapple chutney and the size of each shrimp and amount was perfect. The other two ordered a flatbread quesadilla and cauliflower tacos. Everyone was happy, but they each tried my shrimp and immediately went wow.

An extremely professional and nice waiter Jason went above and beyond to make sure everything was good. He deserves recognition in this review because it’s so rare these days. It’s not just the food that make people want to return to a restaurant, it’s also the way you’re greeted and treated. A+“
