50 Best American Restaurants near Hopewell

“Quite simply The Blue Bottle has the best cuisine of any restaurant in the area that I live. And there are quite a few good ones. The only problem I have with them most often is getting a reservation on the weekend. I also have a problem managing culinary heat [a physical rather than a gastronomic one] and I wish I could tolerate more of it in some of their creations. I really recommend the place.“

The coffee was really good, the breakfast tacos were delicious and the sandwich was yummy! The staff was also very friendly. The cookies were alright. The matcha latte was good, not overly sweet.“

“Had a late lunch and tried out Ottoburger. Had a wonderful sandwich called the schnitzel, with a breaded chicken breast, avocado, Romain lettuce and other vegetable topping with a side of red cabbage coleslaw and fresh veggies like squash, green and red peppers and carrots. Delicious!“

“We had a special family luncheon for 16 people on Saturday April 22. We had coordinated everything with Lauren, owner of Acacia. The menu was excellent, with Entree offerings that were of interest to everyone. The salads were great, and the 4 entrees offered were all outstanding, with great sides on the plate. All the food was delivered to the tables at perfect temperature and preparation. It was all followed by excellent house-made desserts. Service was excellent, and Hermes made sure all guests had want they needed. Everyone in attendance raved about the food, the service, and the location. I was very pleased with the cost, the service offered, and the menu selections. Lauren and all of her associates made this an outstanding occasion. We will be back! Cliff T.“

“Had a great lunch there yesterday with the kids. Everyone was so friendly and they were so accommodating to my seven year old with autism. Their kindness will not be forgotten and we’ll be returning not just for the good food but for the warm welcome.“

“Had a turkey club sandwich with chips. Enjoyed the food at a reasonable price in vibrant ambience. Will certainly return.“

“Great comfy atmosphere for bday get together.“

“This bar does a great job of offering good drinks and food, making it a nice place to hang out. The beer list was awesome, and I really liked the fruited sour with its sweet berry taste. The French onion soup was tasty too, with the cheese all stretchy and the bread perfectly soaked so every bite had the right mix.

The staff were quick and friendly, but the bar was pretty crowded, and I had to sit near some loud coworkers, which wasn’t the best. Still, the place had a cool vibe overall.

The old-school decorations and the classic Princeton feel made it fun to be there. Even though the seating was tight, the good drinks and food make this bar worth checking out.“

“Outstanding. a real fantastic place in Princeton, NJ city centre. Refined, nice people, fantastic food, outstanding wine list, umbeatable cocktails. simply perfect“

“This is the definition of a hidden gem. Located in the Princeton Country Club (public), the food is outstanding and the chef is good at everything he puts on the menu. Service is kind, welcoming, and very accommodating. I didn't have a bite of food that I didn't like. Stand outs were the braised oxtail main, vegetable spring rolls, seafood gumbo with the catfish, shrimp with Alfredo, fried apple pie, BBQ chicken flatbread, A wonderful happy hour from 5-7pm.“

“I had my boyfriend’s surprise birthday party here and it was fantastic! The food and staff were both impressive!“

“Great quality, well presented food in an upscale, but unassuming environment. Perfect for lunch with friends, colleagues, or a date night!

As a vegan, the variety of dishes to choose from was a relative rarity and greatly appreciated! I had the sweet potato and bean chilli which was really tasty, well balanced, gorgeously presented, hearty - the perfect dish for autumn. The plant based dishes were so well designed that my colleagues, both of whom eat meat, opted for vegan meals too!

The farm to table concept is fabulous and the quality of ingredients is noticeable on the first bite. Each staff member we had the pleasure of interacting with was lovely, and the service was excellent throughout.

Thank you Agricola team!“

“We ate brunch on the upstairs terrace. We ordered the duck spring rolls, the spicy chicken sandwich, prosciutto benny, and salmon farro salad. Everything was delicious.

Parking: Small parking lot behind the building, off of the side street.“

“As a local DJ entertainer, the Landing has become a venue in which we perform quite regularly. The staff is always welcoming, professional, and accommodating and truly understands the catering business and what it takes to throw an exceptional celebration. It's always a pleasure to work alongside and partner with them for our shared client events. The food is excellent and prices are reasonable.“

“Always good food. Huge outdoor seating area. Servers are awesome. Highly recommend.“

“Seasons52 Princeton food is delicious and varied as its name implies. Service is excellent as is its atmosphere.Managers, hostest,servers and staff are hands on, knowledgable,friendly and accommodating.Highly recommended.“

“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!“

“Nubia (manager) and her staff are lovely and the flavors/variety are impressive! It’s great to have a place like this on campus - a nice mix of faculty/staff and students use this for lunch. It’s a mix of buffet style with a formal dining room experience (wait staff for drinks and busking the tables). Nubia really makes you feel at home! Go check it out. All for about $10!“

“We went to dine with this rag tag restaurant and the experience was awful. The waitress had no teeth and asked my son for his? At first we thought “hey maybe they are joking” then all of a sudden. They lady grabbed his front bicuspid. Needless to say - at that point we were concerned. Because we had a long day we were still hungry. So we stuck around. The next thing you know. The toothless individual brought another toothless friend and tried to get my tooth as well. At that point. We know. Time to get out of here. We were cooked. Unlike the food at this gross place.“

“We received a warm welcome from the moment we walked into the restaurant. The waiter was kind, knowledgeable, and never made us feel rushed. He was attentive but not intrusive. The drinks we ordered were totally enjoyable and a great way to start the meal. The food was amazing! We enjoyed the mussels in broth appetizer as well as the shrimp in garlic appetizer. Two of us enjoyed the two fish specials. The other two enjoyed the 1/2 chicken and the schnitzel. Dessert was the grilled pound cake ice cream sandwich, it was awesome! The waiter was wonderful about helping me choose tasty items while avoiding foods I am allergic to. We will definitely return. Thank you for one of best meals we have had in a while!“

“Celebrating 3 birthdays at Roots Ocean Prime with 8 people. Everyone loved their entrees (steaks ) which were cooked perfectly. Sides were tasty and enjoyed by everyone. Great wine list. Appreciated the wine recommendation by our server. Our server, Rachel, was excellent. The birthday desserts were the hit of the dinner! Thank you Roots Ocean Prime for making the birthday celebration extra special!“

“Food is always hot & fresh. They opened up in the food court at the quakerbridge mall. Right now they have 2 great locations. Service is incredible. Food is outstanding. You’re most likely going to bring food home. Hot juicy steaks and this location has hot fresh potato chips. Unbelievable. I drove almost 2 hours just to try the chips. And get a hot fresh cheesesteak.Very happy and satisfying. If in area or wanna take a road trip. This is a must. And today was super lucked to have “Joe” the owner there. Along with his brother to take a photo with. Thanks guys…. And yes Joe “Got me….”“

“Good food and service! I love the wings and shrimp!“

“Is always great service and a great time when I come to visit Jess l, Jacob and Sanya. The vibes were the best. I will definitely be back soon to see them
also a big shout out to Camila. She literally is the best and has the best stories . She’s the best bartender ever!

Matthew is the best host this place has ever had“

“This was our first visit to the Brookwood Café. It is absolutely amazing. We spoke to one of the owners and she was so kind enough to let us sample the soup. Food is excellent! So happy we found this little gem.“

“Great staff and food and music!!!“

“First time there with my sister and my wife... I will DEFINITELY return to sample something else on the menu... The mussels and linguini in white sauce was PERFECT!!“

“The food is traditional Longhorn fare, though I will say there has been some improvement in recent years and prior cooking staff seemed to be rather heavy handed on the salt and they’ve corrected. Rustic cozy western vibe and traditional fare is accompanied by a solid assortment of appetizers to choose from. The steaks are reliable if not a bit plain, but consistency is key here. The staff service can be hit or miss depending on the training of those on hand on the given day, but they are generally attentive and do a good job.“

“beautiful place to play. Course is in great condition and it gets a lot of play. hopefully they do night golf this year.“

“We were there for breakfast today, January 14, 2024 and the service and the breakfast the weight staff everyone went out of their way as they always do for their customers. Unfortunately, there was youth groups that showed up and left the door open which was making customers freeze they clogged up the entryway, you would’ve thought that they would’ve called ahead for such large people to show up at a diner on a Sunday morning. But the staff there did the best they could with seating to regular customers and accommodating the large groups that came in kudos to Hillsborough star diner, and their staff.“

“our server Gianna was the best server I’ve ever had. she should get a raise because she’s super nice and funny. she made the experience really good and we want to come again“
