50 Best American Restaurants near Lawrence

“had a lovely and filling price fix lunch. Best part was our charming and attentive waiter Hermes.“

“I've been to this place many times. The food can be great or it can be mediocre. It's never bad, but sometimes it's delicious and sometimes it's OK. Same thing with service, it's never bad, but sometimes it's excellent and sometimes it's OK.

The best bet for food is steaks and desert. That has been consistently good. The value is great, by the way.“

“They have some of the best cheesesteaks in the entire area. We had an issue with one of our sandwiches and the owner refunded our entire order, which was appreciated.“

“Joined the waitlist prior to arriving worked out perfectly. Only waited about 5 mins when we arrived. Staff was very nice. In addition to our waiter multiple staff members checked in on us to see if we needed anything. I had the lobster shrimp and grits. It was delicious. I will definitely be going back.“

“Stopped in for a quick lunch, sat at the bar, and got the BLTA (bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado) on toasted rye. Service was prompt and super friendly. Sandwich was just what I wanted - with a heavy hand of bacon. The fries were delicious - shoestring, crispy and lightly salted. And the pickle was out of this world. I meant to ask them where they source them. Great service. Yummy food. Maybe a little overpriced at $18, but my coffee was bottomless and the staff was great. Shockingly, they have a fully stocked bar at this location with maybe 4 beers on tap! I wish they’d stay open for happy hour. I feel like they’d make a killing in that location if they had lite bites and happy hour at the bar…“

“I love it here! I love that it’s close to home. The parking situation is the only thing I would say is an issue. Once the busyness starts to slow down I would say it will relax a bit on the parking and there will be more tables open but who knows! If you have an issue with anything please let a manager know, I had a problem with my food coming out wrong and the manager fixed it right away for me. Shakes are so good and I got the Orange Creamsicle. Never can go wrong with some fries and cheese on the side“

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

“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.“

“Delicious food & cocktails ❤️“

“I would highly recommend Winberie's! my husband and I went for the first time today to have some lunch. The Executive Chef, Steve Fitch, was so awesome! My husband has a laundry list of food allergies and Steve came out to offer alterations he could make to the menu items to accommodate us. Everyone there was so friendly and the cocktail and food we had was all fresh and delicious. I could have the parmesan tomato soup everyday for the rest of my life and be happy, it was the best I have ever had. Thank you for a great lunch experience, we will definitely be back!“
