11 Best American Restaurants in New Buffalo

“Last dined at Skips in January 2026 , let me say this , first biggest complaint is that after looking at my credit statement I saw that they tacked on an extra $20 charge on my credit card without my permission , after questioning them they did remove the charge , second the food was fair at best , I ordered the Walleye which I'm not sure it was even Walleye , it tasted and looked more like Tilapia ( 2 small filets ) , wife had the Salmon which she said was just ok . I bragged about this place to the others that were with us and they agreed it was nothing to write home about , ,will I go back to Skips , no but they probably don't carel“

“I haven’t been to this place in a few years. It was always beautiful and I honestly did t think it could get much better. I was wrong. This place got AMAZING!!! From the interior, to the food, to the service… everything was beyond expectation. I loved my burger and the drink I had was a perfect blend of flavors. I’m going to stop babbling and just tell you to check it out for yourself.
I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We didn’t expect our experience at Timbers to be so enjoyable. We were so surprised at how nice, fun and helpful the staff was. The food was good (pizza, salad & cheesesteak sandwich) and prices weren’t too bad. Just can’t say enough about the dining staff, great job!!“

“I have been going to The Stray Dog for years. I have never had a bad experience there. The food is great and the service is superb! Also, if any of the ladies out there need a "personal plumber", I am available to service your unfulfilled fantasies.“

“Chaz is the most wonderful Host. George our preferred waiter has been absolutely fantastic! Becky was awesome as well! We have never had any complaints about anything! It gets busy and sometimes there's a little wait for the food but the quality is great! We are looking forward to returning soon! The Lobster Bisque is a must have!“

“ordered garlic bagel toasted with cream cheese & veggies…Delish…loved the crunch… do you sell bagels by dozen for take home?“

“First we want to say our server Susan was such a delight tonight. she made us feel so welcomed and went above and beyond. next, and this is saying a lot because he is so picky. hubby who is a chef saud these are the best calamari he has ever had. we also got the fried Cauliflower. we were expecting a frozen pre-made appetizer but nope it was fresh and hand battered with great seasoning and flavor. we got a couple different sandwiches but want to end with what is called the deconstructed cannoli. it was so crazy good! this is a must try restaurant!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I've been coming to Casey's for years. Always great food and service. This summer we had Adam as our server, each time we ate there. This guy is great! I highly recommend Casey's and definitely ask for Adam. He goes above and beyond! Even made sure on our last night to have sweet tea for us! Thank you ! Hope to see you next summer!“

“Love the new bar since the remodel! Great people, staff, and drinks 😉!“

“It wouldn't let me post my review unless I said I recommend...People need to be warned. Apparently if you are not a regular, they will give your table to one of them even if you reserved months in advance. Hostess and Manager do not value out of owner business so go somewhere else. The only option I could choose was "slow service" but wait staff were better than management.“

“The buffet was good, but I think they put way too much pepper on the food. There’s a lot of people out there cannot have pepper … that’s why you put salt and pepper shakers on the table so people could put the salt and pepper on the food by themselves. The cooks put way too much pepper on the food especially the mashed potatoes. Don’t need to do that. Nobody else does that.“
