50 Best American Restaurants near Harrisburg

“We always enjoy eating at Bubba’s! Victoria was our server and was ABSOLUTELY amazing! She alone was a 10/10 with her service and hospitality.“

“Three Monkeys is hands down one of the best bar experiences around. Even when the place is absolutely slammed, the staff stays calm, organized, and on top of everything. You can tell they work as a team — drinks come out fast, food is hot, and nobody gets overlooked. That kind of coordination under pressure says a lot.

The specials are awesome, the music trivia and regular trivia nights are always a blast, and the whole vibe feels like Cheers — welcoming, familiar, and fun. It’s the kind of spot where you walk in and feel like you belong.

And the food? Some of the best bar food in town. The wings might honestly be the best around — perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. And the Reuben is kickass. No other way to put it.

If you want great energy, great staff, and seriously good food, Three Monkeys delivers every time“

“Always a great time here, they have a very full menu with lots to choose from. Old school feel but great service and the food is always fresh and hot, whether you want chicken, burgers, Italian, anything. They have almost everything you could ever want on the menu. I never regret going there, you can try something new everyday. Whether you dine in or take out it's always the best! Can be busy on the weekend so beware.“

“Food was ordered and ready in a short time . Staff friendly . Food is delicious 😋“

“I have been fan ifAJ’s for a long time. Today I was very disappointed! I ordered a flounder sandwich and onion rings that were so greasy I could barely eat it. I’ve had their flounder before and it was amazing , but today it was not! It was a to go order and I don’t live right around the corner or I would returned it. I ate what I could because I don’t like wasting food or money. Hope that whatever went wrong gets fixed.“

“This place is awesome! The food was great and the portions large! I had a really good cheeseburger! This place is also super clean and the staff is wonderful!“

“Chex grill and wings 🥇 Soon all over the world“

“Great food and service! Would recommend! Will be going back when we’re in town.“

“I eat here often and I always get the same thing. Cheeseburger kids meal, you can add whatever toppings you like and it comes with their delicious custard. It is always just enough food for me and always made fresh. Even when I come on my lunch break the service is still friendly and quick.“

“The owner went above and beyond. I had a large order and couldn't decide on what flavors. he brought out his recommendation and that's what I picked and it was very good and he also gave me fries and a lemonade that was really good. if I was so far away in Florida I would be going every weekend to eat. I would 💯 definitely recommend this place“

“I go here frequently. Always good cocktails and food. One of my favorites in the area!“

“Charlotte’s hidden gem! The Vermont maple farm burger is probably my favorite burger I’ve ever eaten- and I’ve eaten a LOT of burgers over the years. Carol and staff are super friendly. Don’t forget to get some fresh fries too!“

“As someone born and raised in Buffalo, I don’t say this lightly…these are some of the best wings I’ve ever had. I’m in Charlotte for work and stumbled upon Buffalo Eatz, and wow. The Buffalo wings were perfectly crispy with that classic, legit sauce flavor that so many places miss. The barbecue wings were just as good…smoky, saucy, and not overly sweet. And the waffle fries with cheese? Absolute comfort food perfection: crispy, seasoned right, and cheese on the side. This place understands wings. If you’re craving real Buffalo flavor in Charlotte, this is it!! 🔥🍗“

“My all time favorite place! I have enjoyed South 21 for 35 years! I’m a creature of habit so I always order the chicken filet sandwich fried with french fries and of course a separate order of the famous onion rings! These o-rings are the ONLY ones I eat!! The staff is ALWAYS pleasant and courteous too!! My only wish is that it wasn’t 40 minutes away, but I still visit regularly!!“

“I always have an amazing experience at Fumee’s. The customer service is consistently great, and I genuinely have a good time every time I visit. The music is always on point, and front door security Larry deserves a special shoutout—he’s cool, respectful, and really knows how to brighten the night with great energy and laughter makes everyone feel welcome. Can’t wait to come back!“

“I would give anything to live near here! We were on our war to Charlotte for a baby shower and had time to kill when we came across Pump Social. While we didn't get the try their traditional menu (they were hosting their first annual oyster fest) we were sure glad we got a taste of what this place can do! The bratwurst sandwiches were so impressive, we went back for seconds. While we are not locals, the staff did an amazing job making it feel like we lived just up the road. I have already began planning my return to Pump Social.

In all, please give this place a try, and when you do, be sure to send a sandwich my way!

Update: We returned to Pump Social, make a special detour, and are sure glad we did. I honestly don't think there are enough amazing things to say about the food here. I had to update because we absolutely love the potatoes salad side!“

“Drew Was amazing ill be back soon. Try the Benedict“

“I was greeted immediately as I opened the door.
The staff here are so polite and they are very familiar with the menu and I was so excited to try the entrees.

I ordered the seafood combo with flounder and jumbo shrimp and have a side of yams and okra.

So amazing how every bite was flavorful and intense with seasoning that lingered well after I could take another bite.

Totally awesome experience I will rate them a 10 out of 10 but Google only lets you rate one to five.

Keep it up you! Y'all are Awesome Cooks that know how to cook home style food to make people want to keep coming back!“

“The food.is always good and. the prices are very affordable. The. customer service goes above and beyond.“

“The Food was the best. Staff were amazing. Our Server Ameirah was the bomb !It was worth the 4 hr drive.“

“Some of the cashier's have bad attitudes and the Hispanic waitress has a bad attitude she pick and choose who she wants to assist at the table and expects a tip I am big on tipping if the service and food is good. Some days you go and the food is delicious and some days the chicken is salty and dry and not to mention the fish.They need the old cooks and workers back that when the food was delicious. Y'all need to get it together Concord NC.“

“My mom and I ate here for the first time today. The prices were great for the amount of food. My mom had the spring salad with chicken and I had the Big Country croissant with sweet potato fries. I will order something else next time because the menu was very enticing.“

“I went to Cuzzo's for the first time today and this was some of the best food I've had!! I'm mad I didn't come here sooner. The flavors, the seasonings, incredible!! I had the flounder combo with zucchini and squash, cauli wings, and the lobster Mac n cheese. All bangin!! Mari, our waitress, was outstanding!“

“Best place best food good prices“

“I was looking forward to having a nice birthday dinner, I haven't been to BJ's in awhile, Berry Burst Cider! As I'm ordering it I was told they were out, then I tried to order another cider and they were out of that one as well. That was disappointing. The Appetizers were good, wings and avocado egg rolls. The entrees were good and the pace was perfect. Our server Christian was very good and checked back often. The dessert was delicious.“

“They’re really nice and friendly bartender“

“Good food and awesome service.“

“Wow. My husband comes here about 4 days a week for lunch, and now I see why! Amazing food, huge portions and excellent customer service, CHEAP!! Tons of choices. Just GO! Thank me later ☺️“

“We finished our tour of the track and decided to take the advice of the tour guide and have lunch at the Club the service was excellent, the food was phenomenal and the views were spectacular. We had the club burgers and chicken and waffles. So glad we did this. Aubrey was the best. Thank you.“

“All the way from Virginia Beach, the absolute best RUBY TUESDAY for miles. All the food was fresh and delicious. As a millennial, most of these locations have shut down. This was a blast from the past. Nothing will stop me from traveling from Salisbury all the way to Concord for a good meal. A special shout out to Ms Shannon for running a tight ship during the night shift, and to Jose for such a contagious personality. We will be back!!!“

“So glad I found this place on our travels. Delicious food and friendly service. McKayla and Tony were wonderful!“

“I sat at the bar. Vie was awesome! She was very friendly, super smiley and professional. She’s going places for sure. I order the cheeseburger off the “meal deals.” It was delicious. Love the happy hour long islands as well. Thank you, will return 👌🏾“

“Had breakfast room service twice and the portions were very large and the food was excellent. Also had their crab soup yesterday. Highly recommend.“

“We went Saturday for lunch and my meatloaf and mashed potatoes were cold. we asked for biscuits while we were waiting and never received them. And it took 25 minutes to get our food, it was not worth it.“

“We are photographers and tried Johnny's Farmhouse Restaurant after shooting a wedding this evening in Concord. It was an hour before close and our sweet waitress gave us just as much attention as if it was the middle of the day. She was very pleasant and knowledgeable. When we received our meals, we were delightfully surprised at the size of the portions. I had the quarter fried chicken and my husband had the maple pork chop. We had squash, roasted baby potatoes, and green beans. We also had cornbread and rolls. Everything was fresh and homemade! We highly recommend Johnny's Farmhouse Restaurant if you are in Concord!“

“The spinach dip is the best! and the manager Caroline is awesome. I really enjoy the atmosphere :) Joe the GM is extremely nice as well.“

“Stopped here on my way home to Greensboro from Charlotte. Ordered 2 appetizers (pulled pork egg rolls & tator tots topped w/ their DE-licious beef brisket) and they were good sized portions. The tator tots were my absolute favorite! My new favorite bbq spot!!“

“They have awesome food and drink specials during the week. Am very pleased.“

“Had a amazing time, staff was very helpful and polite. We also got a chance to meet and thank the manager for the hospitality giving to my entire family that came. Sarah French, I will never forget that name! She played with the kids, helped staff, cleaning games while showering everyone with love. I am very impressed with her ability to work with short staff. Our food came out faster than we expected due to the number of people we had. But all in all my family is still talking about that night. We will definitely be back... And I encourage all families to go and support her and her awesome staff!! Thank you so much again!“

“I have never been to a Cheddar's before, but I'll definitely be back! The drinks are affordable but delicious, I got the coconut painkiller and it was great. The smokehouse burger was disappointing, I'm pretty sure the burger patty was frozen and not fresh, and it tasted a lot like tv dinner Salisbury steak. That being said, the service was perfect. I don't remember the bartender's name but she had curly, bright red hair. She greeted us immediately even though she was noticeably busy, and let us know she'd be right with us. She took our order in a timely manner and was friendly the entire time. Honestly the way she carried herself made it seem like that was HER bar and she runs it with ease. I was very impressed with the service. And the food came out quickly, hot, and accurate. All around a great experience!“

“Awesome service Jamal you rock bro 😎 great food highly recommend!!“

“Baked chicken is wonderful and turkey and dressing too“

“We stayed here two nights while we were visiting Hendrick Motorsport and the NASCAR Hall of fame. It was a nice hotel, nice staff and a great location- especially for what we were there for and there was lot of dining in the area. If we were ever in the area again I would return.“

“Best place best food good prices“

“My daughter won a gift card from the Sarcoma Sucks 5K, so we stopped by the cafe before leaving town. It was the perfect day to enjoy the beautiful outdoor patio. Our food was fantastic and fresh, and the server was kind and attentive! I definitely recommend this restaurant!“

“Best place in Concord for burgers, salad, Mac n cheese, barbecue and happy people. Great value, healthy and delicious food!“

“This is a chain steakhouse. However the staff is attentive and the food is consistently good. They put lamb chops back on the menu which was excellent. My wife usually has the salmon. It is a consistent favorite for us at least once a month.“
