17 Best American Restaurants near Canton

“Very Good!“

“We were looking at adding a den onto our cabin and met with three different contractors. We felt comfortable with Josh and we made the right choice. We are part timers here in waynesville so we really needed someone we could trust. He kept us informed throughout the construction and made great suggestions. Can’t say enough how thankful we are that we chose A and B. Thanks for a job well done“

“Very nice place for lunch or breakfast“

“I usually order to go when I am too lazy to make a home-cooked meal. The food is good, generous, and well worth the price. I like different restaurants for different reasons. This falls into my "guilty pleasures/greasy spoon" category of restaurant, not because its a dive but because it is simple, decent, southern comfort style food. Don't go for Michelin Star or for fusion foods, but when you want something comforting like grandma would have made it. I give it a 5 star rating not just for its food, but the heart and spirit of the owners and employees. I have seen from behind the scenes, more than once, how this restaurant helps people and the community-for example with food for flood victims and fundraisers for local schools. Their compassion alone makes it a business worth supporting, the tasty fried country steaks, okra, rolls and desert are just the icing on the cake.“

“The Grateful Table is a great example of how the Town of Canton is recovering from the storms and the Mill closure. I work on a project to establish a new nonprofit business here, and our board of directors loves holding our weekly meetings at the Grateful Table. It usually bustles with customers from all walks of life in Canton including parents, artists, and other entrepreneurs. This is the best place in Canton to meet wonderful people!“

“This place was amazing!! From the superb waitress (Nancy) to the outstanding food. We are local and found out about this place from a friend. We will be back for sure! Great food and great prices!“

“We came here from Massachusetts and wanted true southern food. It was great! Bruce had the meatloaf and said it was the best he has ever had. I had the pot roast and it was great!“

“Food cook exactly the way it should be. Great service. ALL the staff were so pleasant and friendly. The banter back and forth between them was absolutely entertaining and made us smile. I have ate at multiple waffle houses in multiple states for years and this one is my favorite by far. A lot of the others act like you are an interruption in their day. No smiles no greetings and you constantly have to ask for refills. Not the case at the one in Canton. We will be stopping in there again on our travels through the state.“

“Last minute stop on a road trip so didn’t know what to expect… What a GREAT decision this was. Folks, trust me ~ the food was spectacular, the service was fantastic, and the down home feel was something you rarely find today. We LOVE this place. I’ll drive 2 hours out of my way now just for a quick meal. Doesn’t matter what you order ~ it’s all delicious!“

“The food is wonderful! Highly recommend!“

“All of their food is excellent! My favorites are cheeseburgers, hotdogs and biscuits and gravy! They have a high sanitary grade even though they are in a food truck. The only drawback is they have only outside seating and close at 2:00 pm..“

“Came in with a group of 12. Samyrah was amazing. She got all of our orders correct and kept our cups full. She did amazing. The food was delicious as well!“

“Ribeye was outstanding, 2 vegs and bread. Good menu items and fast service“

“We visited the area the week of Aug. 2-6. Our first visit. Take out only. Not a problem. They have a system to get you in and out quickly, with hot food, done as ordered. I eat my hotdogs pretty plain, husband eats his ATW. We loved our food. We ate outside on one of several small booths. This is a locally owned business. We strive to find these when we travel. Glad we found this one.“
