44 Best American Restaurants near Clinton

“Nice Place to Eat. Food is good.“

“Popped in here for lunch when I was visiting Clinton. Started off with their Fried Cheese Curds. These honestly were some of the best I’ve ever had. They were like snacks that you could just keep popping into your mouth, just would melt in your mouth. As for my main entree, I order the Baja Smash Burger. Which the combination of avocados, peppers, onions, chipotle mayo, tomatoes, etc… worked very well. It was delicious, I got a side of sweet potato fries with it, these were decent. I will say the coleslaw was not that great. But this is a good breakfast/lunch spot if you are on the main strip of Clinton.“

“Been a fan of Riley and Jake’s for Years! This week I made reservations for a group of 15 ladies. Arrival times varied from 5.30-6:30 and departure times varied too. Our server, Anna took it all in stride. She was friendly and very efficient. Appreciated her cheerfulness and patience. Food was delicious and the cocktails, I’m told were refreshing. Thank you to Jake and Riley’s for another wonderful experience!“

“Very good menu with very good prices. Food is terrific.“

“Enjoy the cozy atmosphere and people are nice and the food is good!!“

“If you’re looking for an absolutely delicious ice cream cake made with love- look no further. We are a huge ice cream cake family- our daughter wanted a cookie dough and cookies and cream ice cream cake for her birthday and Williams and Co. did not disappoint. We will never order one from anywhere else! Their communication, flexibility, and passion for what they do is unmatchable. Thank you so much for making our girl’s celebration that much sweeter!“

“The atmosphere is calm & charming Absolutely delicious food A pleasant surprise“

“Best breakfast ever! It’s always worth the drive. It’s difficult to decide from all the amazing options!“

“My three year old daughter and I went for lunch last week. It was such a treat! I ordered the delicious fried mozzarella (out of this world!) and had the chicken taco specials while my daughter had chicken tenders. Yummy!!!!! For dessert we had pumpkin pie gelato and the birthday cake cupcake. To die for! I highly recommend!“

“The staff are all kind, helpful, accommodating, and genuinely there to make your evening perfect. Chris the hostess was wonderful, as well as the many servers who all willingly supported Gary, the owner, to provide the best service and culinary experience possible for his dinner guests. The menu is one of the best we have seen in the area with many international dishes, some with the labor intensive Indian nuances, and others just with downright phenomenal flavors. Although they have lots of standard fare for the UNadventurous eater, I would suggest you reach past your comfort zone and try some of the appetizers that jump out as potential winners...like the tuna tartare that with just a splash of Japanese Rice wine vinegar would be one of the best I have ever had, as well as the grilled Tandoori shrimp that is marinated in yogurt, ginger, cloves nutmeg, and dried mango; the grilled lamp chops that come with three perfectly grilled meaty garlicky chops that come with mango chutney, and the Haryali chicken Tikka- three huge plump boneless breast of chicken slices that are marinated in mint, yogurt, roasted cloves, green cardamom and star anise, and served with their famous tiger sauce and salsa. We also shared another marinated shredded beef dish special that had three beef croquette-shaped mounds that had such a umami of flavors I can't even replicate it in this review, but we thought it was just great. I would be remiss if I did not mention the creamy, silky crème brûlée that we enjoyed with a glass of Prosecco; a perfect encore to the phenomenal culinary treat we had just experienced with the appetizer medley. Sharing many apps is more fun we think, than committing to one big entree, so we suggest that you dash over to the Pittstown Inn TONIGHT, and tell them Debbie and Gene sent you....ask to meet Gary, the owner, who elegantly floats from table to table, touching each to greet them and to check later on as well to see if everything was to their liking. A true host from days gone by, this owner is the real deal whose passion for the hospitality business emulates from his constant smile from the joy he is getting from making his guests happy. You see that what fuels this man to keep opening his doors from year to year, despite the many hardships and setbacks life has dealt us all over and over, is his love for you, his loyal customer. He is a rare find, so I suggest you go and treat yourself to the real deal in dining. You will not be disappointed, and be sure to ask to meet Gary. He will make your visit complete. Kudos the phenomenal chefs I met as well, for their expertise and genuine ingenuity in designing a menu to please everyone. Can you tell we LOVE this place??????????“

“Really fun atmosphere and awesome food will deff go back! Great place to take fam and kids. 😌“

“Amazing breakfast and wonderful staff. The banana bread French toast was delicious. I highly recommend.“

“Excellent seasoning options! The vendor booth at Bellevue Rocks had a great sale and free samples so you could make sure you really liked each flavor before buying. Loved that the ingredients are clearly listed on each packet (real crab in the crab dip for those of us with shellfish allergies). Versatile flavors and makes great dips! Little pricey $30 for 7 packets but I felt it was worth it!“

“Huge shout out to the Farmhouse in Hampton, NJ! We were able to plan a wedding in only 3.5 months because of this dedicated and talented team. The entire experience was easy, fun, and professional. The entire team was reliable, organized, and efficient which gave us ability to have peace of mind throughout the process. Gina Milo took such great care of us leading up to and on the day our wedding. We couldn’t be happier with this venue and the amazing staff!“

We enjoy coming here and have had happier and more pleasant waitress experience.“

“Food was surprisingly good. I had a chicken Parm sandwich and my wife had a chicken club. We both enjoyed the meal. Service was quick, friendly and accurate. The restaurant was empty, even though the bowling alley was mobbed. The restaurant didn't look or feel at all like a bowling alley, but you could hear the bowling going on.“

“Stage Fright had a blast playing at Mrs. Riley’s! The staff were very welcoming and we loved the vibe. Definitely a place to go & hangout, have some drinks and a bite with your friends & listen to Live Music.“

“Crash delicious, while food from a company that has a great sustainability consciousness“

“Awesome People and Food and fun playing pool“

“We go to The Rail every so often, usually on Tuesdays for T-Bone Tuesday. The steak itself is good, but lately they’ve had a hard time getting the temperature right. We ordered it rare on our last visit and it came out closer to medium.

The mashed potatoes are delicious, and the salads are always fresh. The drinks are good as well. We prefer sitting at the bar, but it’s small, so sometimes we end up at a high-top instead.

Overall, it’s a solid spot with good food, and we just hope the steak temperatures become more consistent.“

“Great dinner! Great service,,“

“Went there with the family (10 people), the food was good, service was correct (the waitress was nice and got pretty much everything right), could have checked up on us more often (probably short-staffed). Nothing special about the atmosphere.
I would go back there.“

“Only been here one time. Got a turkey sandwich which was very good. The side of potato salad was not very good. It had the most hard hitting vinegar taste I've ever experienced. This might have been just a one time deal so I'm still giving 5 stars. The side came with the sandwich so it wasn't that big of a deal“

“Nasty, rude waitress who doesn't wash her hands after using the restroom. 🤢🤮“

“We had a very bad car accident that wasn’t our fault and had to wait for a ride because our truck was totaled. They took such good care of us!! Food was excellent! Drinks were perfect! Highly recommended for attention to customers who are experiencing life in a traumatic way!
Thank you to a caring and kind management and serving team!“
