36 Best American Restaurants near Kearney

“My wife and I stopped in today for a quick lunch. The hostess/waitress was a machine; pleasant, friendly, and service oriented. The burgers were awesome! Will be back when in town!“

“I used to work for stables. And I am proud to say that. Manager, Linda Clark, and manager Morgan Ward are one of the best managers you’ll find. Unfortunately I quit due to me going to college. If I wasn’t going to college, you bet I would stay there. I believe that there’s not many restaurants like stables anymore. Everybody is just kind of jerks. However, a lot of the time working there put a smile on my face. I was a dishwasher. However, there were times where I could help out everybody. There were times where the servers were so packed up that they couldn’t bust their own tables. Not their fault at all. Each and every one of those servers are amazing. And it’s not a big deal to help them anyway. I won hundred percent. I’m going to continue to eat there. And you guys should too. Thank you Linda and thank you Morgan hope to see and hear from you guys soon. Love you all.“

“Can you stop and hear the other night, Sunday. Sam and her staff were amazing!
We've been traveling for a long time, and needed someplace to eat, Sam and her kitchen staff were more than accommodating.
Great small town bar atmosphere. Stop for the friendly staff and atmosphere. You won't be disappointed.“

“How did we not know this gem existed? We absolutely had the best waitress we have had in a long time and the food was amazing. The bread is warmed to just the right soft and warm perfection add on the whipped butter and it melts in your mouth. I had the chicken Parmesan and my husband had the eggplant parm. Both were amazing and the mozzarella sticks . If you have not tried this place you need to! Everything was amazing . We will be back and frequent for sure“

“When you go to Corner Cafe in Liberty and get the pleasure of sitting in Andrew's section not only will he make sure your food order is right and drinks are full he will make sure you laugh and leave smiling. What a great experience! Customer service at its finest!“

“Traditionally I have been big on Culvers. Good food, good prices very consistent. That said I got a chicken sandwich today and the bacon was half the size as normal and the chicken was totally different from normal as well. Its half as thick as it was before and whatever the breading is that is on this sandwich tastes totally different in an off putting way. Definitely not up to the normal culvers standards.“

“Fun and funky. Reminds me a great deal if the little out of the way places in Hawaii where you can get the best food.“

“I love this hotel & the gorgeous spa. Lap pool is memorable. I've been coming here since I was a child for weeks long vacations. Highly recommend.“

“Huey’s is a small gem that will forever go one my favorite breakfast/brunch stops.
If you do go on a Saturday morning do know this is a small business and a small staff. You may have to wait to order but not long for your coffee! Or your meal! Given they do coffee orders as they go. Instead of getting over hauled.
They have a system to their madness and how they serve and anyone that’s been a server or in restaurant will definitely understand why they do what they do.

My husband and I come in regularly and always love our meal. My go to is the biscuits and gravy and my husband goes all over the menu from the breakfast burrito with chorizo or their Mexican plate to normal eggs and toast. It’s always a staple for us on our Saturday mornings.
The coffee is great they offer regular black coffee to cappuccinos and latte with flavors and choice of milk.
The staff are friendly and enjoyable to interact with.
Definitely stop in!“

“great food. great service“

“Excellent food, Excellent service @ Liberty, Mo. The Big Biscuit is my favorite place! Thank You!“

“Eating here was hands down the BEST! I have never had such a wonderful time at a restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious! Our server Nick was with out a doubt phenomenal, I would recommend eating here every time. Nick went above and beyond for my anniversary! Safe to say 10/5 stars in every way!“

“Best burger in KC! Best service in KC! This place is awesome. Definitely check it out. They have great drink specials, too!“

“Fantastic fast food restaurant! We've been waiting to try this place since we are fans of the competitor! Needless to say, they didn't disappoint when walking in for the first time to order! The food was prepared impeccably and quite tasty! Impressive employees and facility! "Wendy" was at the helm behind the cash register and pointed us in the right direction! She was incredible to talk to and friendly! The prices were comparable to other fast food, and worth it! The sandwiches come in 3 different sizes according to the meat ordered! Impressive! The facility was near capacity and busy thru and thru! All the food ordered was the right temperature and worth purchasing! We returned a week later in the drive-thru! We weren't as impressed by the quality of the sandwiches compared to entering the restaurant! We'll be back and visit Wendy inside, rather than going thru the drive! Thank you again!“

“Our server (Kathyrn) was exceptional. Food was good, atmosphere was great. Just exactly what you would expect from this chain restaurant. It is the staff that make it great, not just the food.

Vegetarian options: They have a few.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids here“

“I love the out door patio. You can smoke and they have heaters in the winter. It is by far the best place in Northwest Missouri if you are a smoker. The live music they have is good. Food is consistent. The pretzel is amazing. I also like their wraps and quesadillas. The servers on the Back patio hustle and are great. It gets busy and these ladies hustle.“

“Great food and atmosphere! We loved the new location in Downtown Roanoke right by the town square. Their asada tots and burgers can't be beat. Friendly owners and staff! This is definitely a place to get together with friends and family and enjoy some excellent food!“

“Delicious. Delivered fast, hot and was so good.“

“Was recently in the area so stopped in. Couldn’t help but notice the improvements both to the store and with the staff. The food was very good and our server (Rylie) was top notch - friendly, pleasant, and attentive. Nice atmosphere and very clean. Would definitely recommend this restaurant“

“was amazing. the staff and food are so great“

“Had a great experience!!!“

“Lol good place for breakfast.“

“Best beer and atmosphere!“

“This place feels like home! I plan on trying everything on the menu sooner or later. The chicken and Buffalo sauce are FIRE. They recommend you re-use the cups too which I love. Because being eco-friendly really matters.
This is a family business, with a fishbowl atmosphere. (Everyone is aware and always trying to keep each other up) I want to commend Micah, he clearly cares about this business and the people that visit. All-in-all, we really enjoyed the experience and will be returning.“

“Most of the Hibachi/Chinese buffets I the KC metro are very good. Both KC Joy Woks are exceptional“

“My husband and I visited Saltgrass tonight, anticipating the normal fantastic food and service. As always, our food was excellent, and our server was phenomenal, however an unpleasant scene we witnessed really left a sour taste in our mouth for the evening. As we were dining we witnessed the General Manager, Vernon Blazek begin yelling at a young lady right in the main dining area. He concluded the scene when he yelled “Go home. Bye!” As a Human Resources professional, I can say that had one of my managers treated a subordinate in that manner, especially in front of our customers, that would have been the first and last time that occurred. When my husband addressed the issue with the manager, he was incredibly rude and dismissive of our concerns, ending our conversation by rolling his eyes, stating “Sorry I ruined your dining experience” and walking off. To say we are incredibly disappointed in tonight’s experience would be an understatement.“

“Rudy the first Friday of the month is awesome. I love his singing show.“

“Right through the door, the staff was courteous and maintained a presence that's not found in restaurants anymore! Our waitress was fast and punctual, carrying out conversation giving off a small town vibe! And the food was delicious and grand! Definitely worth every penny!“

“I recommend Old Chicago at Shoal Creek. My sister and I love their pizza. Yesterday we had a terrible time getting seated and waited on at the OC in NKC. It wasn’t crowded at all. We left and drove to the OC at Shoal Creek and got a very warm welcome and excellent service from Katakand Ligon and Kylee Jewel. Nicole Ford was busy preparing for the Super Bowl crowd but she took time to give us excellent attention and care for our concerns re OC NKC“

“Food was great! Got to try the honey chipotle chicken strips with fries AND Mac n cheese!!“
