45 Best American Restaurants in Burlington

“I recently purchased a take and bake chicken pie. Chicken pie is one of my favorite meals, but I’m trying to limits carbs. When I cooked this pie for my family we had no leftovers. It was so delicious and I can’t wait to try more food from their menu.“

“Highly recommend them! They provided food for my wedding and it was phenomenal! Chicken was awesome along with green beans, mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese with a special request and they were very accommodating. Servers were also great. Hands down will use them again! Thank y’all!“

“I highly recommend this establishment. You will not be disappointed.“

“OMG! The best authentic Mexican food around. Today, we had the Crazy "Steak" Tacos. Very delicious. And the price is great. My new spot to go to for sure.“

“Best place in town. I've lived nearby for 7 years and have been coming here regularly for most of those years. The food is consistent and the service is excellent. It also helps that it is probably the least expensive sit-down restaurant in the area. And the amount you get is always great for the price. Mostly good ol' country food on the menu but there are a few surprises like a quesadilla and pita sandwich. I have tried everything on the menu that interests me by this point and nothing has disappointed. And this place has the best ranch dressing. I always thought I HATED ranch until I tried theirs that is made in-house.“

“Great food - Great service.!“

“Moved back home to Burlington after 31 years in Chapel Hill (so glad to leave). always went to the Hillsborough store. Loved it there. Called by pet names, Vet, LT, first name. Seen many come and go. Never had a bad meal. Fast forward to now. Burlington store has come to treat me the same. I live close by so go often and at all different time. Service is always fast except Sundays between 12 and 1, church traffic. Great hot fast food and friendly crews!!“

“Passing through Burlington and saw this place. i ordered a 5 piece chicken wings with ranch and it was really really good! There was a good amount of sauce on the wings and the sauce was delicious. The ranch is also very good. Would definitely recommend! Almost forgot to mention, I went through the drive through and did not have to wait long at all! Very happy.“
