8 Best American Restaurants near Highlands

“We ate here today. It was our first time. We loved the food and the atmosphere. It has an interesting history. Definitely worth the drive.“

“If I could give 10 stars I would! I just had my daughter’s baptism lunch at Fresh and along with every single guest we had I could not be more happy with the food, service,hospitality and accommodations! The food was delicious! So fresh and made with passion. The chef knows what he’s doing. The 2 men that hosted for us were beyond professional, patient and friendly to us and our guests. Every step of the way from planning to finish they were amazing! After we got home I had so many people reaching out to me about how good this place is and how they will definitely be returning for dinner in the near future. Thank you all so much for helping make this day stress free and most importantly SPECIAL!“

“Go there every time we are at sandy hook great food snd service“

“Always a Good time and Great food Epic scenery“

“Best meal ever, the duck was unbelievable as well as the carbonara. Our server Rob was the absolute best. Porcini has easily become one of my favorite restaurants!“

“I can't say enough good things about this place, obviously a waterfront beach bar has an amazing view and cool atmosphere, they're constantly hosting events, live music, which attracts a great crowd as well. And by the way, in my opinion as far as bar food goes they're top tier. Not just burgers and chicken fingers but kabobs and short ribs and things you typically see as bar food. Awesome bar food, get a spot on a couch in front of a fire pit next to the water with live music... hard to beat that“

“We always go for the open mic there. It's a friendly receptive crowd but just remember as a performer, not everybody there is going to be watching or listening, especially toward the back. It is loud. Just the same it's a receptive audience and the food is good.“

“Great place. A diamond in the rough for sure. Casual and relaxing.“
