50 Best American Restaurants near Riverview

“Great Food-Fantastic staff! Always comes to the table at the right temperature! It’s a small building but they push out the food! The kitchen always listens carefully to special orders/requests! Came in yesterday (Sunday) and I told the waitress “they made it exactly how I wanted it-it was delicious” -and she said “they better! I put them on notice!!” ?? Everyone seemed happy to be there, and I heard the waitstaff saying goodbye to each other at shift change-and all were so sweet to each other. No catty drama. We come here often and it never disappoints!“

“We had a great dinner!! Great selection. I had a Gyro and Mike had a Chicken wrap!“

“This location has been great, the people, the food couldn't ask for more. We don't get up here often, but when we do we try to stop. We hope the upcoming Monroe location is trained as well as this one, we'll be able to stop there more.“

“Our server Jennah was amazing! Definitely coming back for sure. 5/5“

“This little place only has 2 tables, I was getting carry out. My friend lives near there, I'm further away but I can't wait to go back! I got 1/4 white meat chicken and waffle, the best chicken I ever ate in my life. Perfectly spiced! I definitely recommend stopping in.“

“This place is awesome. The service is incredible. But the food was even better! The interior of it takes you back to a simpler time. Family owned and operated. The server was the sister of the cook. The coney dogs didn’t stand a chance. Fries were so crunchy and delicious. While there, the folks sitting to the left of me ordered breakfast. I’m definitely coming back just based off of how good their hash browns looked. 10/10. Definitely coming back!“

“Me and my sister ate lunch at Ford’s Garage in Dearborn. We ordered the Fried Chicken Comfort Bowl. This meal is amazing, and the price is right“

“Very generous with the pork sliders. Will come back again.“

“Best liver and onions!! Breakfasts are great“

“Service was great. Waitress rocked ...Yesss“

“I have lunch here about every two weeks. My best impression, is having a floor manager, visit the table, during my visit, to ask if all is well. Having that backup, besides a waitress, is excellent customer care!“

“Such a great family owned establishment! The owner is always so sweet and pleasant. He goes out of his way to say hello to everyone and not to mention he’s a great cook! The gravy from here is amazing! Probably the best downriver. No joke. Take it from a biscuit and gravy connoisseur! Generous portions and great price. Definitely a 👍🏼 🤤“

“So clean, and the decor is fun and comfortable. Food is excellent and so is the service.“

“First Time visit. The food was fabulous so I know we will be back .Thanks to all involved.“

“The food was absolutely amazing! I’ve had a lot of prime rib and I’m not even exaggerating when I say this is probably the best prime rib that I’ve ever had. I shared your page with my 30,000+ followers as well. Very happy with the experience all-around.“

“DISCLAIMER: I WILL L LEAVE OUT MY OPINION ABOUT THE FOOD BECAUSE WHEN I ATE THERE, I WAS COMING DOWN WITH A SINUS INFECTION. THAT CAN ALTER HOW THINGS TASTE.Coney with a small town diner feel. This is one of those places where you just know most of their daily business is from the community, and the staff probably knows most of the customers names.My waitress was named Julia and she was both witty and pleasant. The service was extremely quick and cashing out was a breeze.I must go back and visit again in a few weeks. I will update this soon.“

“This place was awesome. Cool bar, great food the owner Bobby was a top notch host. Definitely going back“

“Visited for a wedding reception. The food arrived in courses and looked very inviting and well done. The tempeture and taste did not measure up to the appearance which was outstanding. It was good but not excellent but it was a good sized party all eating at the same time. The service was above and beyond. Highly recommend these people - they have a handle on how to treat guests. The building was awesome. I had Grok give me the history and cant say enough about how they preserved it and the interior decorations. Good job to whomever keeps up with it.“

“I love this little gem 💎 they have the best breakfast. Gyros are good, too! No complaints. The waitresses are great to.

Vegetarian options: Best omelets

Kid-friendliness: Kids menus available

Wheelchair accessibility: Not sure“

“Just had the wonderful Thanksgiving Buffet at the Taylor location for $24.37 (incl tax) for soup, salad, turkey, ham, chicken, several sides and pumpkin pie! Great staff....they treat you like family.😊“

“Awesome food, great prices, lots of options on the menu. The service is outstanding! Haven’t encountered such friendly staff in a long time. Great place, will definitely be returning.“

“New management here is amazing! Every day they have a different deal for an amazing price. First time going was yesterday. Today is now my second day and I’ll definitely be returning tomorrow for that Poutine deal because this might be my new fave in the city!!!“

“We loved this place. The burgers are huge. My hubby had a side salad that was meal size. And the employees are super nice.“

“The food was delicious I definitely recommend them“

“Step inside this fantastic spot and prepare for a pleasant trip back in time—the atmosphere perfectly channels old diner vibes without feeling dated.

It’s a place of delightful culinary surprises. While the charming atmosphere sets the stage, the food delivers: the entire meal was delicious, and the service was a perfect blend of pleasantness and efficiency.

A huge bonus is the excellent pricing, offering real value. For those unaware of Detroit's iconic cuisine, the revelation of finding Coney Island Hot Dogs and classic Corned Beef Sandwiches here is a true treat. This is more than just a meal; it's a taste of genuine local tradition. A mandatory stop for anyone craving authentic comfort food!“

“Love this place! Great staff and food.“

“Visiting Ramsey's is like going to Cheers. Everyone is your friend. The food is phenomenal. I've never had a bad meal here. Every comfort food is available and plentiful?I recommend the big breakfast,It comes with three eggs, hash browns, three meats.As well as toast and pancakes.. Truly one of my favorites“

“I met up with my family at On the Rocks for Tuesday $1.00 burger night and the food was very good. They have awesome fried rice there too. Everyone in our party really enjoyed the food. The staff was great. They genuinely cared about the service they were delivering. We will definitely be going back there again!“

“For a stereotypical American breakfast-type chain restaurant, the food is pretty good and consistent. I've never had any real issues with my orders and IF there was a mistake it was always minor and corrected immediately with an apology and a smile.

The atmosphere is a bit nostalgic which is part of the charm for me personally. It feels old school and comforting which is nice in a fast-paced world.

The customer service is really why I'm here to write this review though. Having frequented this place so much to the point where a few of the servers know exactly who I am and what I want (lol), it's still always a pleasant interaction and warm smiles all around. If I ever move, I will sincerely miss this place.“

“Stopped in to get a quick bite to eat, was served my food within 10 minutes of being there and the fries and burger was amazing 🤩 the cook even took time out to make sure the food was to my liking 👍 will def be coming back! Thanks for the great food! Sorry I ate my food to fast to take a picture 🤣“

“Al n wife Dona in the house today, got Marc on the flattop. New menu looks fantastic, prices went up a little. The cost of Eggs Bread and Meats have tripled in price, so they have to survive. Still lowest prices Downriver just stop complaining, if you shop at a grocery store you might know this. Had fantastic Greek Chicken Feta Fries, Chili Special and Gyro with Salad. Fast friendly delicious food 😋 always for many decades. Hot New Greek Breakfast plate 😋 WOWED Thanks Al for this fantastic creation. Gyro Meat, Eggs topped with Feta Cheese 😋, Greens topped with Feta Cheese n Warm Pita Bread a instant addiction. Totally Wowed going back for another soon 😀. She had a Double Kielbasa Breakfast plate and Delicious Beef Barley Soup cooked low n slow for about three hours for maximum flavor OMG. Two of the very best cooks Downriver Al & Mark so friendly to all the customers. They treat all customers like family, not many places like this remain. #taylortownconeyisland #greekbreakfast #beefbarleysoup #kielbasa #lowprices #greatsoup #downriverclassic #downriverfriendseat“

“Want to give a review for Chloe S. I came in with my grandparents and niece along with my 2 children, 3yrs. old and 8 weeks old. She sat us outside under the awning and was a great experience. Showed the kids a lot of attention and made sure we were all taken care of coming out and checking on us consistently. BTW the food was great!“

“Tried place out for the first time with a special occasion with longtime friends I got the barbecue chicken dinner it was great ! Waitress was attentive prices are high Not sure why the guest of honor could not have a side salad? When I’m pretty sure there was a salad bar? For this reason I am giving 4 stars“

“This is a grip of nostalgia from the word go.

This restaurant is never more than it needs to be. One person on the grill, one waitress, and a great lineup of breakfast and lunch options.

The place is cash only, which is not something you see everyday. And EVERYTHING on the menu is under $10.

You won’t find a better value for breakfast in the area. The cynics would say it needs to be renovated, but if they do it would take away from the charm.

Nothing needs to change about this place. We will be here again. Thank you“

“Great local bar with good food and good drinks“

“We had our January baby shower at Lakes of Taylor & it was perfect! From planning it all in advance to the day of the event, the communication was seamless & they made sure our event was exactly how we envisioned it - definitely would host another banquet event here!“

“Great food. And super nice waitress need to stop in....“

“I wasn't sure about the menu options but then I found the Hobo Lunch. I had the turkey sandwich and it was good. It came with apple sauce, gold fish crackers, chocolate chip cookie and either milk or fountain drink. The fountain drinks are locally made. The root beer was yummy. I like the cola flavor but I also don't drink mainstream sodas.“

“I Love Charlie's! Food is fresh and there is a Variety of options and Specials ! Plus if you are gluten free they can accommodate you! ?. You have got to try it here! The staff is sweet and friendly ? it is a hidden Gem so don't judge the area! Good Food and clean atmosphere ?“

“We would eat here again, tasty sliders!!!“

“Love the service at this Applebee's the waiters are friendly and helpful the management was excellent mrs.black is a excellent manager great hospitality to the customers. I would highly recommend anyone please go this applebees in allen Park you won't be disappointed“

“The food is delicious! The last two times we went here we waited a long time to order. The waitresses were all talking by the register. Then came the long wait for the food. People who came after us were served. This second visit we had a sandwich and an omelette. There was no reason to wait 25 minutes for the food. We were really considering leaving. Then we were going to take some food home but since our waitress didn’t come by, we decided to just pay and leave. We’ve been going to Pipers for many many years, but after the service we received the last two visits, it will be awhile before we come back. This is sad because the food is really good. The restaurant only had 5 tables with people and there were 4 or 5 people hanging around the register.“

“I had my wedding at The Waterfront Wyandotte and everything was perfection!!!! All of the guests raved about the location, the food and the staff!!! My husband and I could not be happier!!! The staff specifically Jaz, Aubree, Matt, Rochelle and Alyssa were the sweetest and so on top of everything. They are the best staff ever!!! Thank you guys so much for giving us all the most memorable day of our lives!!“

“Olga's used to be one of our favorites but unfortunately this location has gone downhill. Our service or server was very slow tonight (sandwiches out before soup & salad) and we were never offered refills on our drinks. We asked for no tomatoes and they were on both sandwiches. The snackers are one of our favorite items and they were hard as a rock. Very disappointing...“

“Great meal - great people and very clean.“

“Everything was so tasty. I will definitely be back. & the give you enough food ! 😋 10/10“

“My wife and I ordered the “Fish & Chips” When I tell you we have found our new spot for Fish in Taylor “We found our new spot” The fish was fresh & flakey, batter was light and crunchy, the tartar sauce had a good amount of relish in it. Not all mayo! Our dinner also came with soup, (3 to choose from) chicken noodle, lemon rice, and clam chowder. We chose clam chowder, very flavorful & packed with clams. This spot is right down the street from my grandkids house. I have been there many times with them but I did not put two & two together when we ordered our carry out. (Door Dash) Now that we know, you can count on us being repeat offenders. Thanks for the great meal we will still be in with the grands for Sunday breakfast lol. 5+++“

“Excellent food, excellent service!!!“

“My boyfriend and I had a memorable romantic date while experiencing the Chef Tasting at the Ambassador Golf Club Tuscan Grill. After describing our preferred palate to Chef Dan, he prepared the best meal we have ever had. Our waitress was more than hospitable and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Chef’s tasting to anyone looking for a romantic setting and an elegant dinner.“
