14 Best American Restaurants in Kearney

“Absolutely fantastic! That's pretty much how I can sum it up. I have the good Evans omelet, and I have to say it was one of the best I've had in a long time. The servings are fantastic, the chicken fried steak, which my brother-in-law had and I sampled, was delicious, And the pancakes were absolutely yummy! 12 out of 10 would definitely recommend!“

“This place is so awesome! As a visitor to Kearney, this was one of my favorite restaurants of the trip. First of all - so many gluten free options for gluten free pals like me. And the chef was willing to customize things for me - love that! I like the idea of the salad bar/soup station before a meal - it was yummy and a nice appetizer. Also, the dessert selection was wonderful, I was so excited and it was so delicious that my photo was blurry, LOL!“

“Stopped here for food and drinks during a cross country road trip. The drinks were great! Some of the best we've had on our trip, very flavorful and unique options. The grape hard seltzer was one of a kind! Our server was also awesome, very attentive and friendly. We had the chicken spinach alfredo pizza for dinner which was pretty good. We really liked the crust but it was a little soggy. I think it was the tomatoes that threw things off, if those were replaced with sun dried tomatoes it would be way better! Definitely worth the stop.“

“THE ONLY BEST FOOD AND SERVICE IN KEARNEY ❤️❤️❤️❤️ MY FAMILY LOOKS FORWARD TO DINING IN TO EAT AND THE WAITRESSES ,STAFF ,AND COOKS ARE HOSPITABLE AND AWESOME LIKE THIER FOOD!! 10 STAR ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ REVIEW ??“

“The food was delicious. The baked potato was excellent and the broccoli was delicious and the maine tail and caribbean tail were also delicious. The waitress I had was very knowledgeable about what was gluten free or not and when she wasn't sure she asked the cook. Can't wait to go back and try some more delicious dishes.Kid-friendliness: They have a children's menu and three different smoothies. Strawberry, peach and raspberry. They also have soda.“

“Been a long time since I've been here, but the environment hasn't changed that much, if at all.New servers, kind of the same menu but with some items removed. No more Reuben sliders anymore, which is sad. They still have the Reuben pizza full time though.Our server was very kind and pretty attentive. We came at a somewhat odd time so the place was noisy for a bit, but died off rather quickly.I just chose random food myself, and went with the double bypass cheeseburger. It's two big chunks of meat basically on a bun. The meat seemed to be a little heavy on black pepper, but I personally like pepper myself. Might be a turn off for others though. Added bacon and pepperjack and got a side of onion straws.Other than the extra amount of pepper (and to my knowledge I actually don't remember seeing pepperjack on the burger), it was a decent meal.The price for the food was pretty high, so this will probably be a "once in a while" place still for quite a long time.Parking here is still usually a pain as well, by the way.“

“We're in Kearney twice a year for Masonic events, yet this was our first visit. The food was outstanding, and the service top notch even on a busy night. We loved it so much that we went back for lunch before leaving! We will definitely make this a regular stop for us on our visits to Kearney.“

“We stopped while traveling to eat here. The waiter was attentive and friendly. The food was good. My sister and l split our sandwiches. I had the prime rib sandwich, and she had the mushroom and Swiss burger. They were both good and come with house fries. We would recommend it.“

“It was our first time visiting and we tried many menu items for lunch! We took our baby and it was also kid friendly during the day. We will try again for dinner soon. The service was great and the restaurant is really nice ! We were interested in the buffets they offer and might try that sometime. The price of our was very decent for the quality and amount of food we got. We are excited to come back.“

“Went there for Karoeke on Thursday night. The D.J. doesn't start until 10 pm. This is a come as you are, bar. Comfortable atmosphere and reasonable prices. There were already 22 songs up to sing, so we were limited to 2. I sang one. Several people were called up more than a couple of times. Still a fun time. Maybe start Karoeke earlier than 10 pm.“

“I and my family visited this establishment two weekends ago right after seeing the sandhill cranes and the archway museum in Kearney, Nebraska. I chose this burger establishment because they showed up at the top of "Best Burger in Kearney," and it was absolutely fitting to their claim. I got a crab Rangoon burger, which was such a unique burger I had to try it. Amazing, and their waffle fries and crab Rangoon fries were great as well. Every person in my party had an incredible meal with large portions...especially the fish that fed my daughter for almost three meals! We are so glad we stopped here, and they were even showing the Iowa women's basketball game, which was an extra treat.Parking: Had adequate parking for a Saturday during the busy sandhill crane season.Kid-friendliness: Great items for kids and very filling...great side choices. Not loud music, so we could actually talk to each other.“

“We’re from Texas, just passing through, and I just have to say this place is SO big on flavor!! Nice to see someone working the grill with fresh food pulled strait from the fridge to the grill. The employee’s were so nice in helping us and also letting us know how we could request a store to open down south. I sure hope we get this restaurant to come on’ down to Arlington Texas!! I think having a location near or in Texas Live near the ballpark would perfect!!?“

“Beef brisket was such a delight! Service was very slow and the atmosphere in Kearney Nebraska isn’t very appealing. Great Brisket, very small size 6 oz maybe 4 oz.Parking: Lots of business around the restaurant conflict with the restaurant parking.“

“The service and food from the Kearney, NE are outstanding! My husband and I arrived pretty hungry as we are on a long road trip back home. The place was PACKED, understandably as it was time for people to eat brunch (Sunday). We didn't have a long wait to our surprise and was seated in a good place. There was some time before we got our beverages - again, the place was packed. Our food arrived shortly afterwards and the food- DELISH! I ordered French toast and it's to die for, and came with a full side of scrambled eggs and bacon. My husband ordered the breakfast burrito and he loved it. That's quite a compliment coming from him being a Mexican food snob. This is a chain, granted but this location is phenomenal! Warm and friendly service too.“
