14 Best American Restaurants in Keene

“We had a wonderful lunch at The Stage Restaurant in Keene! The atmosphere was classy but comfortable — upscale without feeling stuffy. The food was absolutely top-notch.
We started with the fried Brussels sprouts, which were so good! The maple aioli that came with them was a match made in heaven — I even asked for extra so I could dip my sweet potato fries in it later.
My husband ordered the Nouveau Burger, cooked to perfection, and I had the fish sandwich with those amazing fries. Everything was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented.
The service and overall vibe made it such a great experience. We left full and happy, and we’re already looking forward to going back!“

“My family of 7 went there last week , there was a little wait for a 7pm reservation but we’ll worth it. We had a large variety of dishes to try as two people in the group ordered two dinners each. From the ribs to meatballs and Delmonico steak. Everything was so good and plenty of food on the plate. The waitress kept my brother and his wife with drinks galore and plenty of jokes . It was a fun night.“

“Best Bday party ever, there isn’t a friendlier, more attentive, awesome staff around!“

“Love the food especially the Turkey burger!!!!“

“We had a great meal celebrating Veteran's Day! A Veteran's steak dinner was fabulous, steak done perfectly! My wife got a huge appetizer plate with five different appetizers on it. And the waitress was great! She was very attentive and helpful.“

“The best Reubens around. Their corned beef will not disappoint. Juicy and tender and a real treat.“

“A regular stop for my wife and I, so maybe I am a bit biased but here are my takeaways from a retail management perspective.

- new to us menu items: Veggie burger made in house with a few familiar flavors but still guessing the recipe, excellent texture. A solid choice for those with or without vegetarians preferences. Tortellini had a simple & classic taste profile with plenty of color from the veggies.

- Spinach & Artichoke dip! Always our go to appetizer, bagel chips aren’t always available but we got lucky with a generous amount of parm and seasonings. I swear they have updated the recipe because it’s better than ever.

- Waiter was pleasant & energetic, impressive on the tail end of a Sunday dinner shift. When we complimented the quick bar service, he was clearly very proud of the team he had with him. It’s great to see team recognition as part of a successful whole!“

“Delicious food and nice atmosphere. Loved the seasonal drink options, it was hard to decide but couksnt go wrong either way. The food was delicious, we got the tacos and Mr Miyagi and the flavors were perfect. The dessert menu options was limited but it was during the week“

“Excellent wedding venue! I had the honor to DJ for Donny & Jessica's wedding, and it's about time I write a formal review of my experience from a vendor standpoint! First, the layout is excellent. They have a special deck for ceremonies, and the cocktail hour and reception area is beautiful! Cozy and classy, this venue cares for the attention to detail. Not only with presentation, but also when serving the guests and ensuring the Bride & Groom are well taken care of! The staff was probably one of the best parts of this venue! You guys rock! I have been a wedding DJ for 20 years, and see about 60 venues a year, and I very much look forward to working with you and performing at your event again in the near future! Excellent job you guys!

“Over all great food. The pizza is as promised, it’s amazing. But no were on there Facebook page which is there only form of public communication besides there phone does it say they can’t do take out orders on Fridays. That might be a know thing but for a person new to the area they are not going to know.“

“Overall vibe is a local dive kinda bar with regulars, and a mixed age group.

Yeah, its an Irish bar. Sure, the bartender behind the bar was a bit salty and he kind of gave me a little grief about mispronouncing the beer Smithwick's...but that doesn't mean they deserve one star. It's a bar, have some thick skin.

Their wings were pretty good, and the service was fine. They get busy and distracted; the bartender had to shut down some rowdy pool players, but he handled it well and got back to us when he could. I think he was working the bar by himself and it was
BUSY!

It is CASH ONLY so be aware of that. I believe they do have an ATM inside. And their drink specials vary day to day.

The live music was pretty chill, and it was nice to be able to sit and just relax after a long day. So yeah, give it a chance and drink some cool Irish beers.“
