50 Best American Restaurants near Wildwood

“My girlfriend and I had our very first visit on 6/27/25. The staff was phenomenal, well accepting of our service dog with zero hesitation. Griffin (I think it was his name) is one of the best servers I’ve had in month if not the last couple years. He deserves a raise. He was very patient with us, great attitude and manors and we noticed him being just as good to other tables near us. Food was amazing. The theme of the place was quite different and interesting. Whether it’s in 5 months or 5 years we intend to visit again in hopes of same great service in food.“

“My favorite place for a burger in West County. Beer is cold and staff is friendly. Good healthy options if you’re into that kind of thing. Golf simulators, but remember to make a “tee time” which is easy to do via their website.“

“always great so many choices great service“

“Best Bar around..everyone's like family. All holidays are like a family get together. Prices are great. Pet friendly and always doing fun things, poker runs, trivia, karaoke, blues, chili cook offs and fund raisers, Nick is one of a kind owner.“

“Thoroughly impressed with the teamwork going on at Culver’s in Eureka, Illinois. We dropped in with 20 guests and served quick with many smiles. Manager has and is running a good crew. Bravo. Thanks again!“

“My company, MARIS, held a dinner four our retiring CEO on Friday evening and it was absolutely wonderful! I worked with Jade in planning the event and she was very responsive and helpful. She and Jasmin took care of all the attendees and provided superb service. Our food was excellent and the room was set just as planned. I would highly recommend Bishop’s Post for your next event. They will not disappoint. Thank you Jade, Jasmin, and staff for making our party a success!“

“Our waitress Park was absolutely amazing. Delicious food per usual. An amazing experience!!“

“I have gone to this location many times and it’s always good, but every time Emily is helping me out it’s amazing! She is so bubbly and kind And makes going to that location a Joy! She better be making good money and if not give that girl a raise!!!!“

“This place is fantastic. It does manage to stand out from other similar restaurants, which is hard to do. I love their big pretzel and their burgers are amazing. For the price, the food really is top tier.

I've also had service at this location that more than exceeds expectations. Our most recent server was Whitney and she went above and beyond to make sure we had a good experience.

I personally like the atmosphere. You might not. They have plenty of TVs with music videos running, and the rock music theme is weaved throughout the decor.

If you are on the fence, I suggest taking the risk.“

“As an employee I may be biased however I would recommend this restaurant as both a great place to eat and work. The people make it a great place to work and the slow roasted beef make it hands down, the best roast beef around. with just a touch of seasoning salt it’s great as is or add some au jus and horseradish to complete it.“

“Got the Breaded Mushrooms and Onions Rings for a lunch snack this afternoon. Been awhile since I've had them and Clancy's once again did not disappoint! Always recommended to eat at this great place!“

“Good burgers my kids favorite👍🏼😍keep up the good work guys👍🏼“

“Had great service at Ofallon Missouri store by Melayina“

“Ordered a Concrete in the drive thru, was given a melted cup of creme. It's only 61° out guys how runny is it gonna be when it hits 80°? 2nd time I foolishly went back was told "the custard was not ready" How does a Culver's this poorly run stay afloat?“

“I walked into a classy interior and sat at the bar. I was welcomed there by the owner and he made me feel like a king. I had some fine tequila and ordered the duck. Both were fantastic. The service was wonderful. One of the best duck breast dishes I ever had. Hats off to Westchester for a positive experience“

“we enjoyed our food in the parking lot under the street lamp. We're still not dining in restaurants yet.“

“The Hay Market is within the Holiday Inn at Six Flags and is within a historical dairy barn that was converted many years ago...

Through out the years we have dined here off and on... on Thanksgiving Day they offered a holiday themed buffet... which was delicious...

Melissa was our waitress that day... she was attentive and stopped by to make sure we we not in need of anything... everyone was kind and wonderful...

We will definitely eat there again...“

“From the kids menu: PBF&J Peanut butter & marshmallow fluff mix, and grape jelly on toasted Belgian waffle. Served with plain tots. Grandkids loved it! This is my 4th time here, tonight I had the Baja Cod fish taco, outstanding.“

“Yesterday was our first time there. Food was really good, will definitely be back.“

“Excellent quality of food. Great service and nice ambiance.“

“Seven of us met for a business dinner. The group agreed that this was the best dinner we had enjoyed anywhere for some time. The service and friendly staff were impeccable. The menu selection provided all of us with what we were looking for with quality and quantity. And the desserts (key lime pie and carrot cake)—words can't describe them! The atmosphere was spot on. The restaurant and restrooms were clean and serviced. All were located in a convenient and safe area.“

“Defiance Ridge is the moment, okay? From the second we rolled up the winding drive, I knew we weren’t just drinking wine—we were entering our vineyard era. 🍷✨

The property is absolutely stunning—like “someone better propose to me here” levels of gorgeous. Rolling hills, lush greenery, picture-perfect patios, and just enough wine to make you forget whatever nonsense your inbox tried to serve you last week. 🙃

I kept it classic with wings and fries, because sometimes you need to balance your wine with a little finger-lickin’ realness. And let me tell you, they delivered. The wings had a smoky little kick, the fries were hot and crispy, and I was living my best snacking life. 🔥🍟

My girls went full brunch bombshell—chicken & waffles, cheese balls (dangerously good), salads, sandwiches—and not a bite was left on any plate. The food hit, the wine flowed, and the laughter never stopped.

This place isn’t just a winery—it’s a whole mood. Perfect for birthdays, bachelorettes, “I just need to be outside with a glass in my hand” days… or honestly, any excuse you can dream up.

“I love Chicks! I love working and helping out here as well! My favs are there fries with cheese and their biscuits and gravy! I love the staff and owners!“

“Sundays special is the fried chicken which is delicious when you can get it, the last fiveoutings for Sunday chicken I was only able to get it once, it seems to be a popular dish I would think they would have more on hand“

“Avocado toast was delicious!“

“Great place to just meet friends and neighbors. Food is fantastic and staff incredible!!!“

“Natalya T was our server, and did an excellent job . She was very friendly , and anticipated what we would need. Excellent!“

“They have the best Greek salad and wings!!“

“Server was great!“

“We stopped by today and had the rueben appetizers and the meat pizza. WOW..If you have never been I suggest trying it. AMAZING!!! The patio is dog friendly which for us is a huge plus!“

“Run here. It's delicious and service is great. The prices are also good. It was the best corned beef I have ever had. There were so many delicious menu options it was hard to choose. We will always stop here when traveling to my folks. Our server, Leah was super attentive and friendly too.“

“Awesome food!! Best in west county!“

“The GF, Veg, and Vgn options are slim but not non-existent, there are a few mocktail options, and a few GF beers. Around 5 dessert options, nothing GF. Their sandwich and cocktail options are imaginative and unusual. Overall a very pleasant experience, the atmosphere is very good. The waitress Heather was VERY good at her job. She checked in with me just often enough, indulged my many questions, and was extremely kind. Heather if you read this, you are fantastic and you should be very proud of yourself, and of how you represent your company.“

“While I'll still recommend it...I did go to the Twin Oaks location tonight and they had taken the adult grilled cheese with tomato soup off the menu. 😢😢😢 I just had it there a few weeks ago. They had also taken the zucchini appetizer off the menu. Everything I went there to order is not completely off the menu. And there isn't a suitable substitute. I hope you'll consider bringing those back.“

“We ate their last night for dinner for the very first time. I must say the food was really good but, our appetizer came out which was the spicy Mac & cheese bites, they were good but cold in the center. I let the waitress know and she apologized. She took them back and bought a freshly made order and they were steaming hot and excellent! I got the double smash burger, which was really good, but it was cooked more like a regular hamburger because on a Smashburger the edges are crispy which adds to the flavor. My hamburger SB edges, even though it was a really good burger! I I would still recommend eating here because the food is really good and the service is excellent! I get it some days,there are off days and maybe that’s what happened. But we will definitely be back!“

“Poor Richards is a great family restaurant with many food options. The wings are the best in the St. Louis area, hands down. The wait and bar staff and courteous, friendly, and very attentive. Pricing is competitive and there’s an arcade area for the little ones.“

“From start to finish, our experience at Veritas was nothing short of exceptional. The planning process was seamless—responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely collaborative. On the day of our event, the execution was flawless. Every detail was handled with care and professionalism. The food? Absolutely incredible. Every dish was beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor—our guests are still talking about it. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and effortlessly elegant, creating the perfect backdrop for a truly special evening. To the entire Veritas team: thank you. Thank you for welcoming us so graciously into your space and for providing an experience my family will never forget. You exceeded every expectation, and we are so grateful.“

“Don’t worry about new places popping up claiming to do what you do! You do it better! Still the best donuts in St. Louis bar none! Keep it up!“

“My whole family loves HBH. We get both ham and turkey every Tday and sometimes Christmas too. We get all the sides and graze on them for days! Great taste, selection and service! My 16 year old twin sons eat it up!“

“I was with a big group (14U baseball team). I didn't eat because Dogwood has no real vegan options. I could ordered the hummus plate but that isn't too appetizing. This is the 2nd year we've gone to Dogwood and I couldn't eat. It would be nice if they offered one dish that was clearly marked as being vegan (and not just vegetarian).

The large space and games were great. The kids had a good time after a long and hot day of baseball. The food everyone had looked really good. My wife got the hummus plate but it didn't amount to much.

What I really wanted to say was how awesome our server was. She was outstanding and managed the large group so well! I don't know how she did it. I wish I knew her name. She was there 6/28/25 around noontime. Excellent service!“
