13 Best American Restaurants in Carlsbad

“Our first time today. We had a super lunch. Started out with the tea being fresh. Salsa and chips were tasty, not too spicy, shrimp tacos, perfectly balanced with a nice slaw and avacado. Pork asado extremely flavorful yet not too hot! Will definitely go back again!“

“This restaurant has inside and outside seating areas, lots of charm and great service. The pork chops were very good while the Cordon Bleu, unfortunately, tasted like a microwave meal . . . hard around the edges. Nonetheless, we enjoyed our meals and have no complaints about the service.“

“Passing through Carlsbad, from San Antonio,Tx. Order for delivery. DoorDash deliver great food! My hamburger was cooked by someone that loves what they do. Cheers to you sir or ma’am, best thing I’ve eaten in a while. Sky burger, well executed. I cook for a living and appreciate good food. 😊“

“Philly is beyond compare!“

“I STAYED THERE ONE NIGHT. CLEAN ROOMS, FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE! I'M GOING TONITE FOR FAHITA FRIDAY!“

“Was booked for a 2nd time with my comedy show at Milton's Brewing. It was a blast. Great staff, owner and audience. I look forward to coming back next year.“

“The huevos racheros with red and green are one of my favorite breakfast plates“

“Found this place randomly as we rolled into town after a long day on the road. We could not have been more surprised. The House Special “The Flip” is a New Mexican BBQ take on a Quesadilla. I cannot describe its flavor in detail that would give it justice. If you are in town you have to make a stop at Danny’s.“

“Today May 13th food is always good in Carlsbad. Atmosphere was horrible the waitress was taking an order on the phone had her back to everything but she had an extensive order. Was taking a little bit of time. If you don't get it in then you can't get the money in. I had already told the waitress as I was waiting to decide what I was going to have for breakfast to go ahead and take the phone call. The drive-up got busy as well. But we were both being patient. The cook Rebecca yelled and said order up which is fine she should and then she said again I'm just a little while not very long at all my food's getting cold. The waitress I don't know her name sorry it wasn't Lisa so I don't know who it was of blonde lady. Very nice. Reported I'm on the phone with a with a order. Rebecca yelled well if you can't get it out then I suggest you get help! A customer should never hear that. Why didn't the cook come out and deliver the food and say that the waitress will check on you in just a moment. Instead of yelling. Or send out the dishwasher. To assist. Finally the dishwasher did come out and she helped with the drive up and Rebecca did come out and give the gentleman their food. It was not the end of the world but she was horrible then afterwards after the waitress had taken my order and I had sat down. The waitress went in the back and Rebecca was yelling at her again I could hear her yelling at her I never heard anything that's a waitress said the waitress never talked back to her that I could tell. And it doesn't matter at that point it was not a good morning. That was very disrespectful of your employees all of them and the people who are coming in to buy your food quote unquote the customers who pay your bills! And your employees paycheck. If it ever happens again I will not be back thank you very much the food was good“

“I'd never eaten here before, but my mom was in the mood for a burger (I'm ALWAYS in the mood for a burger). The menu was easy to read and understand. I can't believe they have Tostadas as a side! 👀
We ordered our food and drinks, one of them being the sampler, which comes w/ onion rings, fried mushrooms, fried pickles, and mozz sticks, and jalapeño poppers. The friendly gentleman who took our order came out to the car to tell us they were out of onion rings, but would sub w/whatever else we wanted. I opted for more mushrooms. 😋 The drinks are perfectly mixed, everything came exactly as ordered, and the food was delicious.
Will DEFINITELY be coming back for more.“

“This waitress named shanda was so amazing it was her 2 day working here an it was the best I have ever had she was just leaving stayed cuz I didn’t want the other waitress and she was so sweet aboutit“

“Great burgers but they cant seem to get simple orders right anymore. Feels impossible to get anything extra added. I ask for extra veggies on the burger, instead get none. Ask for extra chile, pay for it, but never get it. Asked for ketchup, girl in drive through gives a dirty look and rudely attempts to had a giant fistfull of packets..literally grabbed as many as she could..20+ packets? I just needed a few.“

“it was shortstaffed this afternoon at chili's but Desi kept everything moving. she was positive, stayed smiling, was the nicest never a frown or bad attitude. amazing service. definitely will go back when I visit Carlsbad again“
