40 Best American Restaurants near Averill Park

“I just ordered take out from there and everything was phenomenal. My family was pleasantly pleased as well.“

“We called for same day reservations and were pleasantly surprised to be able to get our requested time, especially for a friday evening. The weather was beautiful, and we contemplated eating outside, but they didn't have lights on their outside deck. But that wasn't a problem, as it was getting chillier out. We ran into some friends as we walked inside and were able to add them to our reservation since they had a 4 top available. Our waitress came right over and took our drink order. We ordered the 32 oz Cowboy Steak to share with a side of broccoli, and the other couple ordered the sesame encrusted Ahi Tuna Steak and the prime rib sandwich with au jus dip and fries. Everything came out perfectly done. We expected that our steak would have been thicker, after seeing pictures of it from previous posts, but it filled the plate. There was also a lot of fat to cut around. We ended up taking half of our steak home, but the other couple finished theirs completely. Because we made reservations, we both received complimentary chocolate mousse, which was delightful! We paired it with a nutty Irishman cocktail. We also took the 2nd chocolate mousse to go.The food is Always good at Jack Kellys. Very flavorful. Their soups are also very good, although we did not order tonight. The atmosphere is very casual, as it's a golf country club.“

“They have awesome food would go there everyday“

“Consistently great food and great people. Always a good time at the tavern!“

“My bridal shower was here and they did such an amazing job! The food was DELICIOUS and the service was incredible“

“Had a great time, went out with my roommate to grab a bite, and Fatima was our waitress, and she was genuinely such a kind soul and made us laugh till our stomach’s hurt, never once was our drinks empty, and maintained a calm consistent pace of the table. 10/10 will be asking for her again.“

“Great place to grab breakfast in Troy! Today was exceptionally good because they played the entire Shrek soundtrack.“

“***2024 Update***Under new ownership Crossroads has completely turned around food quality is very good and the service has been great. Highly recommend checking them out!“

“Absolutely wonderful experience! The food was outstanding — especially the scallion pancakes, which were a highlight — and the service was exceptional. A special shout-out to Princess (I believe she’s the owner), who, along with the entire staff, was incredibly kind and welcoming. I also really appreciated the wide range of options available for different dietary needs and preferences. We got there near the end of the serving hours, and they still had food available which was awesome. As an added bonus, we even received a free gift (an AHA cleanser), which was such a sweet touch! We didn't walk the grounds due to the rain, but the view from the restaurant was nice.

I'll definitely be back, and I'm really happy the we have such great Korean food in Troy (they also serve American standard brunch food).“

“Lovr Dobys! Our family has enjoyed their subs for many years. My husband and I have also liked their southern friend chicken wings. Great service and will order out to my car. We always do take-out so can't speak to the inside dining experience. I do not understand the negative reviews!“

“we go to naughter’s probably about once a month at this point! the food is always great (the sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich is phenomenal, as are the home fries), and the service is always fast and friendly. sitting at the counter you can see how the staff works together seamlessly as a team to make every trip a great experience. we are already planning on making trips to troy just for naughter’s when we move soon a bit further north!“

“Every time I come upstate, this is my go-to spot—no question, no hesitation. I usually order out, but today I decided to dine in, and I am beyond glad I did. The moment I walked in, I felt the energy shift—warm, welcoming, vibrant. It’s that rare gem that feels like a secret haven just off the highway, tucked away in plain sight, where the vibe is just as satisfying as the food. Melissa and Kayla—what can I even say? They’re not just staff—they’re soul-infused service professionals. Their care, attention, and presence are next level. There’s no “in between” here. It’s either above and beyond or nothing at all, and this place chooses excellence every single time. And the food? Let’s be real—nothing in in the area even comes close. It’s fresh, flavorful, beautifully presented, and made with heart. Every bite reminds you that some places still care about quality and connection. The space is spotless, the vibe is intimate and cozy, and the energy? Pure joy. If you’re passing through or live nearby—don’t sleep on this place. It’s more than a meal—it’s an experience.“

“uwielbiam to miejsce i gorąco polecam ,przemiła obsługa i fantastyczne jedzenie“

“This is certainly one of the best places to hang out as a student of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. It can be either to grab a coffee, have a bite to eat, or just chill out with your friends. It is also a nice place to study or work.There are ample amenities for charging your laptop, playing some indoor games like table tennis, billiards, etc. There is also a pub upstairs and various meeting rooms. The Panera Bread here is also pretty good.“

“What you'd expect from any diner...nothing overwhelming unique or impressive. Turkey, ham and bacon club with cheese was pretty good. More than enough sandwich for 1 person. Fellow diner was not impressed at all with his shrimp scampi and scallops...then again if you're looking for good seafood a diner is usually the last place you'd find it.“

“I was there with a group of friends from HS. Our 50th Reunion was the night prior, and there were 18-20 of us meeting up.
Our waitstaff was so accommodating, and the food was amazing.
We weren't rushed out at all, and we were there for hours.

Vegetarian options: There were plenty of options.

Dietary restrictions: I'm lactose intolerant, and a friend is gluten intolerant, and we were able to find some amazing choices on the menu.“

“We have been going to Zias since 2009,the service has been poor, disrespectful, cocky.It used yo be good but has gone the way their old place pieros.was good and went to crap. shame we were loyal. go to riveria down the street better nicer and they appreciate you. ZERO STARS“

“The service was amazing for our large party's recent visit. The staff was incredibly accommodating and attentive, ensuring that everyone in our group was well taken care of. We arrived early and the manager was super helpful in getting us to a table and making us feel welcomed. The waitstaff was so organized with taking our order and getting our food out, they numbered each family in our party and it all worked on perfectly. Large parties can be challenging but they made it seem easy. The special pumpkin martini drink was delicious! Yum!“

“Nice little country pizza shop. We got an 8 cut, xcheese, meatball and hot peppers on half with 2 small salads. Pizza was very good. You do have the option of getting tavern style which is mozzerella and American cheese on a crisp crust but we just had plain. Salads were ok... nothing special. Service was very good. The girl at the counter was very nice and courteous.“

“love this place so much!, The foods always on point an the service is always amazing! , I wish I grabbed the name of are server tonight so I could give her a proper shout out . But she was amazing !, she made the experience !, an she was on top of checking on us through out are meal . which u don't find much anymore . everything was perfect 10/10“

“This is in response to the review from Etem Cetin below since I can’t respond. Next time you want spew false accusations and hate toward my restaurant and myself please make it believable. Also don’t hide behind a fake profile. You know where you can find me. Also I’m not sure how you ate lunch at my restaurant since we don’t open until 4pm, please troll someone else and get a life.“

Chili’s Grill & Bar is always a fantastic experience!

From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and quick to ensure that your dining experience is top-notch. The menu has something for everyone — from sizzling fajitas to mouthwatering burgers and, of course, the famous chips and salsa!

The food is consistently delicious and served fresh, and the portion sizes are generous for the price. I especially love their 2-for-1 drink specials and the variety of options on their value menu.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or celebrating a special occasion, Chili’s always delivers! Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food, great service, and a fun dining experience.

Keep up the great work, Chili’s team!“
