50 Best American Restaurants near Moorhead

“Mercedes and Kelsi made my breakfast so enjoyable. Mercedes was training Kelsi in and was so professional. My food was exactly what I ordered and how I ordered it. I am very hard to please. My breakfast experience was the best I've had since covid.“

“We hosted my dad's 80th birthday party at the Moorhead Legion yesterday, August 27th. Everything went perfectly! We had tons of compliments. Scott and his team are so accommodating. We had about 60 guests and they let you use your own caterer and put up your own decorations. If you have any events that you need a great space at a reasonable rate, give them a call :)“

“We had an amazing experience as first timers at Mezzaluna! They were so prompt and friendly! They had the most amazing palate cleanser I’ve ever had! We were celebrating our anniversary and many people wished us a happy anniversary and we received a free dessert as their gift. My husband and I felt so relaxed as we never had to ask for a refill or anything! They were very attentive! Thank you for an amazing meal!! We had the burrata appetizer, tri-tip steak, steak Diane, the soup special that was a curry soup, flourless chocolate cake, and the lemon lavender crème brûlée.“

“Just great food and friendly“

“Have had consistently good experiences. The allergen friendly options are amazing, especially for those with multiple allergies/sensitivities. Staff is super responsive. We travel to Fargo frequently and try to make this a regular stop!“

“Everything we had was incredible…oysters, prime rib, burnt ends, potatoes, brussel sprouts then ended the night with house made brandy! The added bonus was the pianist, great spot downtown.“

“great place to eat! love the atmosphere“

“WOW. So glad we found this place. We celebrated a 15 year work anniversary today, 9.18.24, and the two pans of food we ordered were AHHHMAZING. Everyone raved about them. So huge shout out to you! We had the scalloped potatoes and ham and a cheesy chicken pasta. THANK YOU for helping us celebrate one of our employees/coworkers! The crew at Steffes Group :)“

“Had an amazing meal at The Toasted Frog - Fargo!!! 10/10 one of the best meals I’ve had in ages! Do yourself a favour and request a “kitchen bar”seat and watch the line work!!! Sous Chef Alec did an amazing job leading his team through the weeds! If you are in Fargo….make this a stop!“

“Attended a family event here recently and came away pretty impressed. The venue was clean, well kept, and had plenty of room without feeling too crowded. Staff members were polite and helped people find where they needed to go, which made things easier. Parking was decent and not too far from the entrance. Sound system worked well, and everything ran smooth most of the night. Only small issue was it got a little warm once the room filled up, but nothing terrible. Overall it was a nice place for gatherings and I’d gladly come back for another event.“

“I forgot to do this review earlier, but our servers at the time was Rachel. She has great customer service! She was a blast to talk to and was overall a very fun person to have as our server! She made the experience most definitely unforgettable! The food is delicious and they have many different food and drink options! We can’t wait to come back and see Rachel again if she still works there! Thank you!!!“

“Met a family member for supper after a long day at the neurologist for my 10 month old son. He’s finally 1 month seizure free and got the news he most likely won’t have any more. They brought him a sundae and all congratulated him. The food was so delicious and our waitress was on top of drinks.“

“I took my mom here tonight for her birthday. They went out of their way to accommodate our food restrictions and needs. They even sang her happy birthday on a whim. The food was amazing as well! I highly recommend this for any occasion. Very very good time.“

“We had an incredible night at Camp Lonetree with our kickball crew. The staff handled our large group with ease—quick, friendly, and full of good energy. The food was packed with flavor and just the right amount of kick, all served in a rooftop setting that felt like a cozy summer camp with city views. Whether you’re rolling deep with a team or just grabbing a bite with a friend, this spot nails the casual vibe. Highly recommend for anyone looking to mix great eats with a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere.“

“My husband, toddler, and I were looking for a good spot to eat tonight. We stopped into Petro to check out one of their spots to eat. We decided to stop into Dolly Down, and are so glad we did! We really weren't sure what to expect at first, but ended up absolutely loving this place! The food was fantastic. They serve breakfast all day, so I ordered a full biscuits and gravy, my husband ordered an omelet and some French toast, and we got mini corn dogs with fries for our little one. The fries were so crispy and delicious, some of the best fries I've had in Fargo. Our toddler LOVED everything she got. She didn't waste a single bite! Husband said omelet and French toast was incredible. The biscuits and gravy was such a large portion! Very tasty, and I ordered some great hash browns on the side. Everything was cooked really well, we enjoyed everything we ordered! Our server was so nice and friendly. She was on top of everything! We never had an empty cup, and she made sure to check in on us often. She was the only one running the front, and she still took time to walk with everyone there. Her name is Sherry (sorry if I spelled it wrong). She was awesome. Thank you for your kind service! And lastly, the prices were really affordable. We will gladly come back and visit in the near future.“

“Wonderful menu options, perfect food & service❤️“

“I was just at Knolls and they let me try the chilli and it wasn't spicy so I ordered a bowl and after eating some it got really spicy Dillon made it right gave me a bowl of knephla soup at no extra charge I rate Knolls a 5.0“

“We stopped in for lunch on Saturday with our family of five and overall had a good experience. Most of the food was very good and everyone enjoyed their meals. One burger was a bit overcooked, but everything else was prepared well and tasted great.
A special shoutout to our server, Alexis. We learned it was only her second day, and you never would have known it! She was friendly, attentive, and checked on us throughout our meal to make sure we had everything we needed. She had a great attitude and provided excellent service. For being so new, she did an outstanding job and was definitely the highlight of our visit.
The only downside was our initial interaction when we arrived. The hostess seemed a bit bothered by our arrival, which was surprising since the restaurant was nearly empty. It left us feeling more like an inconvenience than welcomed guests.
That said, Alexis more than made up for it with her excellent service, and we appreciate the effort she put into making our meal enjoyable.“

“We went to Doolittle’s Woodfire grill for Valentine’s. Great dinner. Cider glazed pork belly and a top notch dirty martini. I had Shrimp and Polenta, hubs had seared scallops. Great bottle of Riesling, complemented our main courses. Finally Chocolate Creme Brulee and Irish coffee. Service was exceptional, right from the hostess station, bar staff, busers and our waitress. We have not been there in a very long time, but we will be back and very soon.“

“Stopped in for breakfast while staying at the hotel. We were greeted and seated immediately. Coffee and water were offered right away. As we checked menus the pot of coffee was left… a pot! The menu is small but had all the basics including a big buffet at your choice ($19). We ordered the favorite breakfast - two eggs, meat, toast and potatoes and the same as a two topping omelette (with ham and mushroom). The server was amazing…. So pleasant and cheerful. Our food came quickly and looked good except the wheat toast was a tiny bit dark for my preference. The eggs were perfectly over medium, nice crispy hash browns and bacon and jelly selections rather than one tub on the plate made my husband (a strawberry faithful) very happy. My omelette was filled with ham and mushroom - I forget some people don’t consider cheese a given in an omelette, but it was still good. The potatoes were crispy and the bacon perfect. As I mentioned, the toast was a bit well done but after scraping some off was fine. Good breakfast and nice atmosphere and service. Cost was $36… very reasonable!“

“Best burger in the FM area! Try the Rajun Cajun! It’s so simply yet SO delicious!“

“Yesterday we went to Culvers on 13th per my daughters request for her golden 7th birthday. One of the staff gave her a free sundae, and a scoopie stuffie and she was so happy! We love culvers and how they can still be a fun fast food option even though I am gluten free. She already asked when we can go back again. Amazing service noticing her birthday headband and going above and beyond to make her feel special on her specail day.“

“In Fargo, service is not great. i had one bite of my meal and told waiter he could take it. He never asked why, if anything was wrong, just grabbed it and walked away. I wasn't expecting anything other than for him to know why my meal was not hardly touched. He never came back to table until he brought us the bill.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – A Fargo Favorite! The Bison Turf is hands down one of the best spots in town. The food is consistently great — flavorful, satisfying, and perfect whether you're grabbing a quick bite or settling in for the night. Their drink specials are top-notch and hard to beat, making it a great value without sacrificing quality. What really sets the Turf apart is the atmosphere. It's got that perfect mix of laid-back and lively, whether you're there for a game, a night out with friends, or just winding down. And the staff? Absolutely amazing. Friendly, fast, and always on point — they make you feel welcome every time you walk through the door. If you haven’t checked out The Bison Turf yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Great food with good pricing. I had the surf & turf, and the wife had the chicken ranch sandwich. The shrimp was done perfectly and the steak bites were some of the best I've had.

We'll definitely be back.“

“Absolutely love this place and their staff are top notch highly recommend for a date night or just to go out and enjoy an amazing meal with wonderful people and great atmosphere 10/10“

“Great menu and service!“

“Food is always hot and fresh when we go. My go-to place for chicken. Delicious!“

“The service is usually pretty good, but my only complaint is the online service. I ordered on the app for the first time. I went in and told them my name and that I ordered online they gave me my drink and then they let my food sit on the shelf getting cold for 20 minutes and didn’t feel the need to tell me my order is ready or call out a number or anything. It’s never good eating cold food and no one apologized or anything just brushed off that they sat and stared at me for 20 mins knowing my food was done“

“We eat lunch most days at ruby Tuesday . We have no complaints and don’t expect all to be perfect every day ..we are working with humans trying their best . Sometimes when feeling like complaining put yourself in that servers place or think if that was your daughter or son how you would like them treated .. as far as complaints about a specific blond server .. she is one of the most efficient there . There are people who just like to complain maybe hoping for a free meal .“

“Our server was friendly and attentive. The fresh bread and butter delicious. The food hot and timed just right. Steaks were tender and cooked as ordered. Will definitely come again when we’re in town.“

“I came in for dinner with a couple friends and had a pretty decent experience overall. The place had a relaxed vibe and it didn’t feel too loud even when it got busier. Food came out at a reasonable pace and everything tasted fresh. I ordered a chicken dish with a side and thought the flavors were good, maybe could've used just a little more seasoning but still enjoyable. The staff checked on us a few times without being over the top about it. Dessert was actually better than I expected too. Not a perfect visit, but I’d probably come back again when I’m in the area.“

“First time eating there and it was amazing“

“Family outing celebrating my daughter passing Finals for nursing school. There was 7 of us. Our server was awesome, everytime has passed was asking how it was. Food was awesome came quickly since they were very busy. Food was very good. Definitely a return visit.“

“Great atmosphere and staff“

“Great spot... Awesome food and a cool vibe“

“Honey did a wonderful job!“

“Food was good and came out fast and service was outstanding. The hostess Pavi was especially good. When she sat us down she went through all the specials and was very knowledgeable about the menu and drink specials. We talked to her on the way out and she held the door for us and was very very kind and went above and beyond. I didn’t catch our servers name but he was also outstanding.“

“Checked out this 'new to us' sports bar last night called Brewtus Brickhouse. My buddies and I were itching to try someplace different for a change of pace. From the minute we sauntered in, I got good vibes. Tons of TVs primed for the big game, ice cold suds on tap, and a killer '80s rock soundtrack - complete with the manager doing hamstring stretches and ripping air guitar before each song. The menu looked sick - loaded up on wings, and snagged a secret menu taco grinder pizza our server 'Sweet Tators' tipped us off to. Our waitress Boods was a real ace - laid back, knew her sports, and clearly a cat lover. She took solid care of our crew out on the patio. Overall, Brewtus is a top-notch spot! My boys agreed we found our go-to for knocking back cool ones 😎 🍺“

“We stopped in for lunch on a busy Sunday with our family of five, and had a wonderful experience! The food was great, came out quickly, and everything was exactly as ordered.
What really made our visit stand out was our server, Cassidy. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and checked on us multiple times throughout our meal to make sure we had everything we needed. It's clear she genuinely cares about providing great service.
Thank you, Cassidy, for making our lunch so enjoyable. We'll definitely be back!“
