50 Best American Restaurants near Walled Lake

“A classic American diner serving all of metro Detroits local favorites. Hefty portions, affordable meals, topped off with a service staff that is not only kind, caring, but genuine human beings. There won’t be anything on the menu that’s not delicious. I eat here 2-3 times a week and have never left unhappy.“

“maybe it's my fault for not paying attention. Just walked in from the howell location. so, was there at like 610pm. I ordered a full bag, and ranch. she gave me a half bag, and no ranch. I come here all the time, and I've never had this happen before. I'm a cook. I work as a cook professionally. I understand having a long day, or just a bad one. but come on. 10 dollars for half a bag of bread sticks and no ranch?“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had such a great lunch today at Casey's of Walled Lake! My mom, best friend, her daughter, my daughter, my nephew, and I all went around 1 PM on a Sunday, and surprisingly we had the place almost completely to ourselves. The atmosphere was honestly such a vibe — they have both indoor and outdoor seating, a cozy fire pit outside, and even a waterfall/koi pond feature in the corner that made it feel really relaxing and unique.

I ordered the breakfast burger with an egg cooked medium rare, and it came out PERFECTLY cooked. The table absolutely loved the fresh-cut chips, and the mozzarella moons tasted homemade and were delicious. We also got the pretzels, and my mom loved the sliders — especially the homemade pickles that came with them.

My best friend ordered the BBQ cheddar burger and said the barbecue sauce had the perfect tangy flavor. Huge bonus points for having Yuengling on draft, plus they had several signature cocktails that sounded amazing. I spotted a margarita with blueberry purée that I definitely want to come back and try. Sunday's kids eat free And they have keno.

As a Google Local Guide Level 7 with over 5 million views across reviews from Florida to Tennessee to Michigan, I can honestly say this place deserves more attention. Great food, great atmosphere, and a really enjoyable experience overall. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Casual breakfast and lunch. We had the sampler breakfast with a side of Hashbrowns which was delicious. I asked for grilled onions in the potatoes and it was perfect. Pancakes and sausage were very tasty. Recommend.“

“I can't recommend the Sunrise Cafe enough. Stopped in on a whim for breakfast while on a family adventure and everyone left happy and full. The menu is extensive and everything was freshly made and very yummy. But what really put it over the top was the service! From the greeting at the door, to the prompt attention, and one of the best servers ever! 10 out of 10! We will be back!“

“Love this place! The food tastes homemade. Ordered their slim jim which has real ham sliced off the bone, (not lunchmeat), crispy lettuce, melted Swiss cheese, fresh tomatoes and mayonnaise on a delicious hogie type bun. The sandwich is large enough to take 1/2 home and it's just as good cold and right out of your fridge as it is when first ordered. I asked for "crispy" onion rings...they were crisped just right not greasy and the batter tasted homemade. They were unlike the out of freezer greasy fried in stale oil ones you usually get most other places. My friends ordered their burgers and raved about them. Their shakes are the best. The servers are very friendly and attentive. I'll definitely go back to try more items on their menu!“

“So let me start of saying I do not leave reviews barely ever, but this restaurant right here is just amazing. Especially the server Lisa. You will be super lucky if you get her to serve you. She is on top of stuff. She was quick loving always has a smile on her face. This is my second time here and this is now my favorite restaurant. She even went as far as asking if I wanted her to butter my French toast for me and when I was done she even put everything in to go containers. I also was a pain and wanted to eat outside where there is two tables but not frequently used so there is nothing on the tables like jelly sugar menus etc. She goes out of her way to set it up for me with a smile on her face. The food is excellent I got French toast and county skillet and man the food is amazing for a decent price. You get better food and a lot more food for the price of a McDonald's meal. Seriously you have to try this out. Ask for Lisa I assure you, you will not regret it. Tell her tija said hi“

“I cannot say enough great things about our experience with Moe’s on 10. Seriously top notch customer service, and awesome food too! We were hosting a brunch for 14 people for our daughter’s first communion celebration and I was having a terrible time finding a place for brunch on a Saturday for the group of our size…we were too small of a group for most restaurants private dining rooms (most minimums were for 20 people) and too big for just regular reservations…or the place only did brunch on Sundays…I started looking on the local community pages for recommendations of new places I hadn’t heard of and I saw a comment about Moe’s on 10. I checked out social media and the website and read reviews of people who had similar size parties and decided to give it a test run that Saturday. Our first time there was just the three of us, we were immediately pleased when we walked in the door and were greeted right away by multiple staff members. So friendly! We were sat down very quickly in a nice booth and received very prompt service from Michael. He was very attentive and welcoming. The food at the brunch buffet was hot and fresh with all the standards and then some. The gentleman working the omelette and waffle station provided wonderful service and made fantastic food, delivering right to your table. At the end of our meal (our 8 year old loved everything she had) I inquired with Michael about their availability to accommodate our group and he was very eager to help and assured me they could absolutely take our party. I was ecstatic. The week of our daughter’s first communion I called the restaurant to see about some special requests I had for our reservation. Michael helped me out again and was just a delight to work with. Seriously so accommodating. The night before our party I dropped off some flower vases and picture frames to go on the table. We were again greeted by super friendly staff and helped right away. The day of our party we walked in and everything was setup up beautifully and ready to go. Our party members made comment about how nice and clean the place was and everyone raved about the food and service. Our server took great care of our large group. And again, the gentleman working the made to order station nailed it. He took excellent care of everyone in our group and was so great with the kids, we had 5 of them under 10. They loved their mini waffles! And to top everything off, their prices are sooo reasonable! Moe’s earned some devoted customers in our family. You can totally feel the family atmosphere and how much they care for their customers, and the food is amazing too!“

“This is a great store! You feel welcome as you get greeted in. A lot of customers are known by name, and you can tell the owners care and get to know everyone. This place has probably over 1000 different varieties of spirits and if they don't have what you're looking for they'll get it for you. The owners are still chipping away at renovating but it's coming together nicely.“

“This has become my favorite restaurant. The food is outstanding.“

“Brentwood Grille is Novi’s hidden gem—elegant, welcoming, and consistently delicious. Classic favorites with a fresh twist, perfect for a memorable night out. Highly recommend!“

“Our server Miranda took an order outside. She noticed a water bottle on the grass & picked it up, She could have left it for the landscapers to pick up but on this very chilly day she took the time. Miranda was pleasant and wish more employees were like her.“

“This is the finest restaurant that I have been to in Michigan. The service is excellent, and the food is amazing. The Chef Maddi is extremely talented. Our server has been Ken who is ver professional and friendly.“

“We ate at Westside Family Dining yesterday and it was amazing! I had the chicken gyro and it was so good, and my dad got the fish and chips and loved it. Our waitress was super friendly and made the whole experience even better. Definitely recommend!“

“Amazing food! Everything is fresh and homemade. I love the reuben sandwich and came back St Paddy's for the corned beef and cabbage meal. The pizza is also some of the best I've ever had in Michigan. Shout out to Shanna (*Flower) for being an amazing waitress.“
