14 Best American Restaurants in Rockford

“Great place with a great team“

“Really love this restaurant. Our first time to check the place as someone who is a Foodie. 😋 we came here after we went to Deer Junction for a drive thru christmas lights. Me, my husband and my daughter had a great time in this place. The place itself is very cozy. Love the ambiance. Our server was really nice and patient. We ordered Delmonico steak with truffle fries, alredo pasta and kids pasta with fries. Food was really great! We can't wait to go back.“

“✨ A Little Slice of Heaven on Earth ✨ We had the true pleasure of enjoying breakfast at this beautiful little diner, and we just have to give thanks where it’s due. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed like family. The kindness of the staff, the warmth of the atmosphere, and the care they put into every plate—it was more than a meal; it was ministry in the form of hospitality. In a world that moves so fast, this place reminded us to slow down, give thanks, and enjoy the blessings God places in front of us. The food was made with love, the coffee was brewed with intention, and the smiles were served without limit. We wholeheartedly recommend this diner to anyone looking for more than just good food—this is where hearts are fed too. God bless this team and their hands that serve so faithfully. We will definitely be back. 🙏 #SupportSmallBusiness #GodIsInTheDetails #BlessedAndFed #LocalLove #FaithAndFood“

“If you’re over in the Grand Rapids/Rockford area, definitely go check out the Corner Bar, Rockford Michigan. I was there to take in their coney dog challenge, but my wife and daughter’s food was amazing too. My daughter who NEVER finishes her plates completely devoured her pulled pork pasta. Super fun atmosphere and the staff was great. Also a HUGE selection of root beer and local beers on tap. We are from the greater Lansing area, but plan on definitely making the trip west again to try other amazing looking things on their menu.“

“I love this cute little coffee shop“

“We took our family the other night. Great location, delicious food, and fair prices. But what really stood out to me was the staff. Great customer service!! Polite, eye contact, checking in with all guests to see how the experience was or if anyone needed refills. The cook was hustling and doing an amazing job. These young people were outstanding! This will be a go to for us.“

“I'm an old guy and this was perhaps the BEST fast food I've ever received! My wife definitely agrees with that. All of the food was fresh and hot and delicious. The onion rings, OH the onion rings! Beer battered crispy fresh and incredible. Chicken cashew salads had lots of unsalted cashews just like it's supposed to be. The chicken was hot moist and flavorful. Not rubbery or dry. Nice combination of fresh leafy greens. Now so you will know that this review is legit I just recently reviewed a Wendy's in Big Rapids, MI. which was some of the worst food I've ever received. The salads were spoiled (actually rotten) to the degree that we had to dispose of two entire meals. But this one just a little North of Grand Rapids and just East of route 131 (Rockford Mi i believe) was fantastic. Did I mention the onion rings? Oh my the onion rings.“

“Went to peppermill this morning for breakfast and it was a 10/10 from service to food!! Thanks for the great start to our morning!!“

“get a manager that owns up to poor service. waited too long to place our order. waited way too long -over an hour- for 3 meals which we ended up taking as carry out had to ask for a manager and she never came to our table. all while watching those sat after us getting served. i get things happen....i don't get blatant lack of professionalism in management. i always look to support local. thankfully i have other options in Rockford.“

“I had my first visit to Evergreen Inn for breakfast this a.m. I ordered the breakfast tacos(1 of each sausage, bacon, and ham). Delicious!!! fast, friendly service. clean, spacious setting. would highly recommend 😊 we will be back.“

“stopped into Grill 111 after work this week for the first time, and it definitely won’t be my last! I had the filet, and it was absolutely amazing — perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Great atmosphere, excellent service, and incredible food. Highly recommend Grill 111 if you’re looking for a great meal in Rockford!“

“Delicious well done! On a pretzel bun! Side of sweet potato fries was delicious! ‘Q’ (Quentin) was a delight as our server! He is very professional and engaging! Thanks Q!“

“Smaug's Revenge is the best hot sauce I have had in a long time. You must try this sauce! It's a little hot at first, but don't worry, it doesn't get hotter. The flavor stays with you though. I would give 7 stars if possible!“

“Brisket sandwich was ok kinda of dry wish I would have got bbq sauce on it“
