50 Best American Restaurants near Chanhassen

“Totally chill spot definitely for the older crowd A lot of people knew each other bar staff was very nice and people at the bar were very welcoming and allowed me to sit in between them and didn't make me feel awkward so it was pretty cool experience I've heard that they have a comedy store here as well as live entertainment on Tuesdays so check it out pretty bomb“

“Houlihan's is one of our go to places! The food is great, always consistent and a step above the run of the mill American fair. And the staff, Steve (the icon), Jake, Annie, Nip, Ross and don't forget Art (Happy retirement) are the greatest we love seeing their happy faces!“

“Decided to stop by for a drive thru visit and this location did not disappoint!

I received very accurate and helpful service, it was quick and everything tasted awesome. I just had to take a pic of my turtle custard bc they did such a good job on it!

Plus the grilled onions were perfect on my burger.

Only complaint would be that my fries completely spilled in the bag, like they were out in there upside down… still tasted good tho haha“

“the family atmosphere. we will be back“

“Unreal service. Second to none food“

“We took an after work boat cruise. Wonderful food was set out buffet style and there was a bar for the thirsty ones. We had a great time seeing people we work with outside of the shop. Glad I brought a jacket as when the sun dipped, it got chilly. Parking was a little sticky but we got on the boat on time!“

“This is one of our favorite places, we make sure to come every month for the bloody of the month. Today I had the breakfast tacos and old fashion, amazing food and drinks. Our waitress was fantastic super nice and conversational we’ll be lifetime customers. Mags our waitress was amazing - promote ahead of peers give her annual bonus. ✨“

“The service is horrible. Waited 20mins before getting someone to take just our drink order and it was the bartender from inside not even our server that noticed we were still sitting there with nothing. Then barley good service once our waiter did finally come. We all could have had another drink but never could since we werent asked till after we were done with food. Food was actually really good and good portions for the price. But the service ruined it. I can't recommend this place and don't know if we will back. Plenty of other places with good food that actually have good service.“

“Positive-Great tasting food with large portions. Great food choices. Bakery to die for. Friendly service. Negative-Pricey and very noisy. Not a lot of seating. Crowded. I would definitely go back again!!!“

“Food was amazing, prompt service, and fun atmosphere. We will definitely be back!“

“Monday special smash burger was really good and very affordable. Just the right amount of food. No refill on my iced tea is my only real complaint. After food was delivered we didn't see the waitress again until she brought us the bill.“

“affordable delicious food and a gift to the community“

“We had a wedding reception dinner here last Saturday and I would highly recommend it. Mike was so helpful the last month answering all my questions and getting everything I needed to make our night perfect. Everyone was ranting and raving on how good the food was! Our bartender Kyle C. was awesome! He was busing tables and serving drinks like a champ. He even found me the last Busch light in the bar and saved it for me. Our night could have not been more perfect thanks to the hard working staff here. Best of all it worked great with our budget! If you are looking for a place to hold your small event this is it don’t look any further. P.S the chocolate cake is to die for. Thank you again 💕 The Feyereisen’s“

“The turkey cranberry sandwich and chicken salad was very good. Three of us shared them and had leftovers. We were there at lunchtime, so it was very busy. They were yellow jackets wasps keeping us on edge. The waiters were very helpful.“

Sat outside on the patio for brunch. I had the prime rib French toast and washed it down with the best French 75 I have ever had. 10/10 !!! atmosphere and service matched the quality of the food and drinks.“

“Great service…great food…great prices!“

“Our two visits to Layline have both been excellent. Enthusiastic servers and terrific food. Our favorite menu item has been the Watermelon salad. We had it on both visits and it was extraordinary both times.
We've enjoyed the Bywater Burger, Chicken Sandwich, Pork Chop and the Sea Bass. All were terrific. Duck fat fries also fantastic. We will definitely be back for more.“

“Had a wonderful experience for dinner on a very busy Dec. 23rd. Our party of 3 arrived at about 6:10 to a waiting list of approx. 6 other parties. We were told 20 minutes to wait, it was no more than 15 minutes. Service was spot-on time-wise and efficiency-wise. Food was excellent. Portions were huge. I feel it is a great place to enjoy a meal.“

“The lobster roll was fantastic and definitely the highlight of the meal. The oysters on the other hand weren’t as good as I’d hoped. The truffle oil fries were delicious! It was raining when we went, so we didn’t get to sit on the patio, but I’d love to come back and check it out another time.“

“Disclosure: I have a kiddo that works here. Haven’t reviewed bc of that.

Exception follows! Thank you Culver’s for providing thee only thing my kiddo can eat post wisdom teeth extraction.

Your CUSTARD has been a lifesaver. Will be back for more on Day 2.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!“

“We have had a few special celebrations at Applebees and Mike always makes them so memorable. He goes above and beyond always! He has such a calm demeanor and is such a good person you can tell! We always feel taken care of and you just don’t find that anymore in the service industry.“

“We’ve used Mr Pig for the last few years for many birthday parties and it is always a crowd pleaser. Our guests love the hog roasts and augratin potatoes as their favorites 🙂. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a hog roast/catering service for their parties!! Most importantly, it comes highly approved by our favorite birthday boy 🐶 who gets to see his BFF’s each summer for his very own birthday plate 😁 🐶.“

“Service was good even though mixup with food and it was never ordered. Big delay and provided one free dessert for a check of $150. Not the way to handle a problem even though they apologized. Disappointed. Food okay , just above average. Will think twice again before returning.“

“Local fare done well. Great service!“

“Overall I love it, VS DJ late at night switching music styles too quick.“

“Every year the girls get a pup cup for their birthday. Usually we go to that other ice cream place, but I like Culver's custard and figured I'd stop in quick and inquire for her birthday on Monday. The very sweet employee thought I was asking for one instead of just inquiring if they do that at this location and came back with one for the girls. They were spoiled a little early and we will definitely be back on their birthday and other days for service like this. Thank you so much for making mine and the girls day🍨💜“

“We had a family birthday party on the patio and Evan's service was five star. It started out as a pizza party until the family saw the dinner menu. Pizzas, pastas and burgers were delicious and all came out at the same time! Bravo Primo! Very well done!“

“I moved in earlier than I planned because there wa no reason not too. I am very happy at The Waters and so glad I made the move. The "cottages" are wonderful even though there is downsizing to get done. The staff is very helpful and cheerful. The food is great - besides the 'every day menu," there are specials for lunch and dinner. The menu is quite varied with chicken, beef/veal, pork, turkey and vegetarian.“

“Great atmosphere but the beer is expensive! Was very surprised to $12/beer 😳“

“I have been attending for 20 years. The staff has turned over many times. Food is always perfect. Staff is the variable. I have two worthy of particular honors. They are Cathy and Shannon. Pin gold medals on the both. Don't let them leave until they are much too old. They make Perkins for me“

“Usually on Monday or Wednesday evenings, I come in to get take out after a long shift at the hospital. Even though it's take out vs dining in, Sherry always makes me feel welcome when answering the phone, & when I come in. She genuinely cares, and I always see her cleaning when she isn't assisting a customer. I never forget kind people, and Sherry is one of them! The other staff that I encounter there are nice too! :) This is one of my favorite Perkin locations!“

“Great food!! The crab cake was Amazing… don’t forget to get an Amazing margarita 🍹“

“Amazing brunch- chicken biscuits and gravy. Excellent service and staff!“

“Love this place first visit and what a pleasant visit“

“Haha this place is so awesome and food so good. There’s this lady who has purple hair and she helped me order my new favorite food. Chicken tender. Am from Beijing and want a taste of American life and I love it so far. Props to you purple hair woman, give her a raise.“

“I have been going to Hoagies for a decade now and I absolutly love it. The food is great, good price and the service is great.“
