35 Best American Restaurants near Colden

“I stopped in on a whim. Very friendly atmosphere the bartender recommended a burger because I wasn’t sure what to order. It was by far one of the best burgers I’ve had in years. If you have a chance to go there go and enjoy some delicious food and great conversation with the local people there. Highly recommended!“

“I wasn’t sure what to expect- I found the place on google while I was searching for a fun place to take my wife on Valentine’s Day that we’ve never been to. Looked cute in the pictures, so figured would give it a shot…and I am so so so happy we did! It has an incredible rustic feel (being an actual old Mill that’s almost 200 years old) and a warm a cozy vibe. The hostess was very kind, and sat us immediately, even though we were a tad early for our reservation. My wife was super excited because there was a working wood-burning stove right next to our table and it was so calming and toasty! The waitress was a delight, and incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Since it was V-Day they had a special menu for the night, and I promise every option looked incredible- it was really hard to choose! Needless to say, the Steak I ordered was truly one of the best I’ve ever had. It was cooked to perfection. The drink menu has some delicious options as well, and fit the vibe perfectly! For desert I got this insane Apple Fritter + ice cream bowl that really blew me away. If I wasn’t so full, I would’ve ordered a second it was so good! Such an awesome place. I’m very excited to go back again. It is easily the best Google search I’ve ever made for a restaurant!“

“Excellent pasta dish and very generous portions!“

“Charlie The Butcher continues to be the premier Beef on Weck of Western New York! Thank you for all you do for the community as well! Merry Christmas!“

“Old Orchard Inn is a bit hard to find even for GPS. Be prepared to not find it on the first try if you have never been here before. The entrance road is hidden, barely paved and rough. Parking is free though. Be prepared to drive slowly when you do enter the driveway. There is a steep upward climb when you walk to the front door. If you are elderly, infirmed or handicapped, a boy with a golf cart will come get you and transport you to and from if you encounter difficulty or simply require mobility assistance. I only know this because I saw it with my own eyes. The wait was a bit long (about 30 minutes). Judy was the waitress; I see reviews with her name from 2012. She must be a lifer. Nothing wrong with that, just an observation. She is in command and can handle any customer no matter what happens. She is a good photographer if you need that service as well. Later she brought more menus and took our orders. Although she is not bashful about giving orders as well. I had the grilled lamb salad. A "hard to get" at most places for sure. It was a grilled half rack of New Zealand lamb. Crisp spring greens, goat cheese, roasted red pepper, red onion and lemon chive dressing. Highly recommend this! The sides are served family style to everyone at your table. We had summer squash and carrots, and herb roasted red potatoes. Judy will not do substitutes! The blood orange creme Brule is splendid for dessert. The restroom was a bit silly. The towel dispenser was hung from the ceiling, also just enough room to turn around in there. So, no need to be concerned about sharing it with anyone, you will have plenty of privacy. There is outdoor seating and a duck pond when the weather is nice. There is also a fireplace if the weather is cool. Certainly, memorable and will never be forgotten. In the event you are looking for something very unique with a flair for charm, the Old Orchard Inn may be just your ticket for elegance, relaxation and fun. Caveat Emptor.“

“I have not played a round of golf yet this year, but since the opening of Nora’s on 9 I have eaten here several times. I’ve enjoyed the Hotdog with chili sauce to the smash burger. Onion rings or fries or even the Tots. To this point the food has been spot on, and always served with a smile. Highly recommended“

“We’re from Texas and were told to come to Bar Bill for wings and drinks. We went for lunch on a Sunday that the bills played. Great food, service and the festive atmosphere was great. Ended up getting wings and pizza. Absolutely delish.“

“From beginning to end, everything was top notch. The waiter was very attentive, and the owner was very pleasant. The food was delicious. From the deviled eggs, calamari, chicken Milanese, and the scallops on tomato based risotto, everything was delicious! And to top it all off was two different kinds of cakes. Both were big and wonderful. We will definitely be going back!“

“Taste Bistro & Coffee Bar is one of our favorite spots in East Aurora. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and well presented, and there are so many unique options on the menu that it’s hard to choose just one. The coffee is excellent, and the desserts are always worth getting. The staff is friendly, helpful, and welcoming, even when the place is busy. The atmosphere is also great and makes it a perfect spot for breakfast, lunch, coffee, or just meeting up with friends. Definitely one of the best local spots in East Aurora and somewhere we’ll keep coming back to!“

“I have been looking for a place to eat breakfast in East Aurora. Being from Pittsburgh and visiting I did not know where to go. I found the Iron Kettle on Google and saw their menu included steak & eggs, plus country potatoes. The steak was seasoned perfect, and people make you feel welcomed. Highly recommend this place, you can’t go wrong. 👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“Four of us ate here. The service was very good. Food was good for 2 of us. The other 2 both ordered reubens. They were not at all satisfied with their sandwiches. The meat had a good flavor, but was full of fat & grizzle. Not at all lean & tender. Whether this is normal or a one-time occurrence, we don't know!“

“Delicious food, great service and pleasant atmosphere! Perfection!“

Location is right across from the stadium, so good views if you like the Bills. :-) Can't imagine how crazy/fun/wild/etc. this place gets on game days/nights!!! I know Bills fans, so...... :-D“

“very pricey and small portions..coworker got steak in the grass sandwich and sweet potato fries and with tax and takeout fee it was 24 dollars..souvlaki wrap and fries was 17 dollars..a super basic cold tuna sandwich with fries was 16 dollars..this place used to be great but has went downhill the past few years..they've lost my business“

“Stopped in this evening after a day on the slopes with my son the service and atmosphere was amazing. Food was delicious and just what we wanted after being out in the cold. We would recommend this place for a family dinner or casual outing“

“The food and service was good. Be aware! The prices on the menu are different from what they charge you. My meal in the menu was $18.99. I was charged $23.99 for shrimp scampi and much smaller portion from past order. Fish fry was listed as $15.99 was charged 21.99. They need to let you know the prices are higher than what is listed in their menu. ?‍♀️“
