50 Best American Restaurants near Beachwood

“We went to masons, pretty much right before they closed on a Saturday (1am), and Jeremiah treated us (and everyone else) like we were royalty. He was kind, responsive, entertaining, and pretty much made my bad night considerably better. It was the first time we had been to the bar and will definitely not be the last, for us or our friends. We are officially sold <3“

“B2 Bistro + Bar Bayville provides a scenic atmosphere with a great dining experience. The menu has a variety of meal and drink choices. From the hostesses, to the servers and bartenders, the staff are friendly and welcoming. They always have great live music and a beautiful pool to enjoy as well. I’ve also attended numerous sports banquets in the upstairs banquet room and the views and food were delicious. My family and I highly recommend B2.“

“Had lunch today at Houlihans. I haven't been here in a while, so I wanted to treat myself by eating at my favorite restaurant.
And my 3 favorite servers now work in the morning: Mackenzie, Brooke & Jenna.
I had the early bird dinner special: chicken parmesan with a salad and dessert for $17.99. it's a good deal because they chicken parmesan by itself is regularly $17.99.

My server Mackenzie was great: polite, attentive, and fast. As are all of the servers here.

It was sad seeing one of the hosts, Justin leaving. This is his last day. He's going back to college. He and hostess Paige are both great. No matter how busy they never lose their cool. That's important bec

The food always great.

Parking: Parking is free and always available, even on busy weekends.“

“Dina’s cooking is Amazing! The food service and hospitality are all excerional!! Everyone makes you feel like family sitting at their dining room table at their house. Made my dad’s 85th birthday so special !🎂🍓🍰 Thank you Rich, David and staff“

“We went here on Thanksgiving. They had their open menu as well as a Thanksgiving dinner, which was delicious. The servers worked as hard as they could. To make sure everybody got their food on time. Click on the refills of your drinks.And you were able to sit out side by the water. If you go, i'm sure you will enjoy it.“

“Came here for a quick, Sunday homestyle breakfast and was not disappointed at all. The atmosphere is unique, to say the least, but also gives a lot to start conversations amongst the table. Serving portions were superb and food was very tasty. I have seen other comments and reviews that were very negative and nasty, but everybody can have a bad day once in a while. They were complaining on the service and owner/waiter being rude and yelling. I've seen more positive ratings than negative ones. While not everybody has the same humor, people can definitely be some Debbie downers. All in all, we had a nice experience and enjoyed the food. Ihop who?? Lol will def be back!!!“

“Food was very tasty and exactly what you want and expect from a NJ diner. They had quite a few daily off menu specials and I went for a classic diner food. Chipped beef on toast, grits and coffee. All tasted really good.

Parking: Plenty of parking on premises

Kid-friendliness: Yes. Easily and happily welcomed“

“Joanne is the literal best! We have come here every summer on vacation, and make sure we are in Joanne's section. She is always polite and has always made sure we had a great experience, as well as all of her other tables at the same time. The food is also great, and the dinner was cheap. The restaurant is very nice inside. Joanne is truly an angel!

“We had Kate & Ally’s cater a party at our local community center for 100 people. Everything from securing the date, choosing the menu, the food, and the service was top notch! I am so happy we were able to provide such high quality and creative food, but also, to have had the opportunity to just enjoy the party while the Kate and Ally staff handled it all from set up to clean up! Huge thank yous to Dianne, Lindsay, Janet, and Rich for all their hard work to help make my event special!“

“I just wanted to reach out & thank your staff on duty from Friday 8/18 Especially Rod/Ron the Manager (my apologies I don't remember his name exactly) for outstanding customer service! We were at the restaurant Friday evening. It was the last night of our family Seaside Vacation and our first time dining at The Sawmill. We were seated promptly(young hostess with curly hair and an air cast), drinks & food orders were taken very quickly(female server with dark curly hair and an accent). Our beverages came out in a flash, and our appetizers were moments behind. When my teenage son reached across for some tasty pretzel bites...he knocked his full orange soda into his lap (and shirt) , onto the floor, & even onto me! We sent him to the restroom to try and clean himself up while we motioned for help, we didn't want anyone to slip on the wet floor! Within seconds your staff responded in the best possible way. Your manager was mopping up the floor, our server was bringing a replacement soda, one of the ladies bussing tables hustled over with towels. By the time my son returned from the restroom my husband and I were discussing how to proceed (Run back to the house to change or by new clothes on the boardwalk) when Rod/Ron appeared on bended knee next to my son with Sawmill t-shirts in tow asking his size so he could change his shirt. My son initially refused because; it was "all his fault & he didn't deserve it" but; Rod/Ron persisted and convinced my son that these kinds of things happen to everyone. A point I was just making to my child, when my son heard this he accepted. The way your staff responded in the moment took what could have been an awful end to our vacation into a very bright spot because of how attentive and supportive your staff was. It means more than you will ever know. Please take a moment & thank your staffers on our behalf. Thank you, Monica, Andy, & AJ Mossey“

“Love this place! Always come here with my family! The waiters/waitresses (especially Patrick) are always very kind! I always get the Royal Red Robin! It is amazing. But the only problem is that the yolk is always kinda runny. But other than that, everything else is perfect!“

“great food great service great ambiance ....I'll be back“

“I was attending a wedding in Lakewood, NJ. There are surprisingly very few hotels nearby there that aren't on the shore. I had in the past stayed at a Ramada in Toms River, but I learned that it had been sold and turned into an office building. For some reason, Lakewood has very few hotels. I had stayed at one of the only other nearby hotels, a Hilton, but it is overpriced. I saw the Days Hotel, and it got good reviews. The bride's grandmother told me a friend had stayed there and had given a good report, so I booked a reservation. The Days Hotel Toms River was a pleasant surprise. It was the cleanest hotel I've ever stayed in! No dirt, no signs of bugs. no stains in the bathtub! No cracked tiles or mismatched wallpaper. And I asked for maid service after the first night, and they gave it to me, complete with all fresh towels, bedding, and amenities, made the bed, vacuumed, and cleaned the coffee area, even not waiting until late in the afternoon, as some hotels do. And it looked like the hotel had just been redecorated. Not 1950s dreary with holes in the carpet and broken tiles in the bathroom. Very tasteful with light, simple colors: just the way I like it. The hotel was very quiet, no rowdy guests, and it was set back from the highway, so no road noise, as well. And a big parking lot in front (free) with no driving around and around for a space, even after I returned from the wedding late at night. And it is conveniently located to the main streets leading to Lakewood, which was important to me. Staff was nice, and there were two computers in the lobby with Internet + a printer for guests to use. It's a four-story hotel, and I had a room on the top floor, which I had requested. I had noticed before I left that the room rate (AAA - two double beds) since I made the reservation had gone down. I pointed that out when I checked in, and the agent behind the desk matched that rate. And there was always someone behind the desk, regardless of time of day. And they answered the phone!! There was a restaurant in the hotel that I didn't use, but they were very nice and gave me plastic silverware and disposable dishes so I could eat in my room the special-diet food I had brought. The room also had a large mini-fridge (that functioned well!) So overall I would say it was much better even than staying at the old Ramada. And better than the Hilton. at a much lower price. And 1, 000 times better than an old Best Western I stayed in once, which apparently is also kaput. Only complaint was that one of only two elevators was out of order, and it wasn't fixed the whole time I was there (3 days, 2 nights). But there usually wasn’t a wait for the other elevator.“

“First time going to The Grove, our server was Kirsten she was very polite and extremely helpful in selecting our meals.Started off with boneless wings and French Onion soup then for dinner we had mushroom ravioli and chicken parm they were all Delicious!!! Can't wait to come back..“

“Cool to place to hang out and get a few cocktails and food.“

“I would give them 3 out of 5 stars. since the day they opened, inconsistent with food and drinks. one day the sliders are medium, the next well done. one day your $16 martini is full, the next it's missing the top inch of the drink. one day the pizza is ok, the next time is soup. last time the service was just ok. tonight she was great.“

“Walked in and sat at the bar, our bartender was a wonderful woman named Leen. We’ve been to a few Applebee’s but I have to say Leen was easily one of the most exceptional bartenders we’ve ever had at an Applebee’s or any other bar for that matter. Friendly, attentive, funny and just overall a great person to talk to. Our food came much faster than I or my girlfriend had expected (and it was outstanding). Everything we could’ve asked for, if I could give more stars I would! 11/10“

“The staff was fantastic. We loved the boat and the food was better than expected!

However I HIGHLY recommend hosting an “Adults Only” night. There were screaming, crying, jumping children, weaving in and out of the poor wait staffs legs all night. Parents simply not watching/caring about what their kids were doing, actually insane. It really ruined what was meant to be a romantic & relaxing evening for us.“

“I would recommend this location for its comfortable setting and location. The staff are attentive and the service is genuine. The management and owner operator are always welcoming and kind . The food is good as well so , visit the place and enjoy your time . Tuesday Night Bingo with Prices lol“

“The cheesesteaks were delicious, but I wished I noticed the disgusting fan that was above the ordering counter before I ate there. The fan is full of so much thick dust that I felt sick after eating there. Makes you wonder if the kitchen is really clean.“

“I’m always a happy customer. They’re always hospitable and friendly, and food is delish!!“

“Really good chicken fingers.“

“Absolute favorite spot for pizza, clams on the half shell on the Jersey shore. They make an amazing stile of pizza with pico de Gallo on top, the crust is always thin and crispy! Also the best garlic bread I’ve ever had. My mom and I always try and come visit often from point plesant because it’s that much better here! Also super kind owner, and staff!“

“We went there the other night and I have to say I was impressed with the place.There are plenty of tvs if you like to watch sports and a big open area with tables if you just want to dine.The bartender was friendly and so wwere the customers that were sitting at the bar.The food was really good and we can't wait to go back .I'm going to try the Italian hot dog and my girlfriend wants to try the pizza.You owe it to yourself to try this place out.“

“Amazingly friendly customer service, great food and coffee with a good selection of gluten free options.“

“The fried calamari is the best!!!“

“I highly recommend Hemingways it's good food and great music“

“Katie and Bill are amazing and are awesome. Two people who truly care about their customers and it shows everyday. I’m a regular 2-3 times a week and it’s always rockin in there, cool tunes, cool vibe and just all around great way to kick off my day! The staff is great there and the food always amazing. Keep up the good vibes!!!“

“My favorite restaurant in this area. Food is great as well as pricing, service and atmosphere. If you haven’t been there yet, give it a try. You will not be disappointed!“

“The atmosphere Is Beautiful and the food was amazing I got the special which was ribs with mac & cheese and they were so tender, and the mac & cheese was delicious our waiter was friendly (young man with curly hair) and it felt very homey in there on a rainy day drinks were very good too“

“I LOVE this Applebees, I go to this one specifically to be served by waitress Cat. The first time I’ve went to the Manchester Applebees her service was wonderful and she was such a delight, I am a pretty picky eater and make a lot of alterations to my meals and she understands and makes sure to write down everything without judgement. Absolutely fantastic waitress and environment. Food never came out wrong.“
