18 Best American Restaurants near Livonia

“I was supposed to come here with a friend but he's sick so it's a good thing I like dining solo just fine. I went right after they opened and there were several tables there already. Maybe Solar Eclipse traffic??? I was greeted right away-from across the room actually. I think it was the manager because he made the rounds to the tables asking how everything was later on. I started off with a lemon sour. Delicious. Never had one but if you're looking for a sweet drink this ain't it. It was on special. I was delivered bread with honey butter, pickles and hummus. I thought that was weird but it was actually so good on the bread. I had a piece of Italian bread, some onion bread and probably focaccia. The bread plate was insane-I could have just had bread there and been happy. I ordered a wood fired pizza. I mean that's in the name so that's what I got. It was pretty good. The sauce is on the spicy side. Just enough heat to wake up your tastebuds but not so uncomfortable that your mouth is on fire. I heard the table next to me also was talking about the spice of one of their dishes and talking about their nose running when things are spicy...same girl, same. And my nose was a little runny. I wish the pepperoni had been cup and char but that may have put that pizza over the top with having such a robust sauce. I did indulge in dessert. Against my better judgement because I full! But luckily my dessert stomach stepped her ass up to the plate and took one for the team. I do not think the dessert selection is that fantastic. I think every dessert has some chocolate in it except for the crème brûlée so if you're not a chocolate person, there's not a whole lot to choose from. I really wanted the coconut cake, but that had chocolate ganache on it, and the oatmeal cake just sounded unappealing so I passed on those. The crème brûlée was really good. My server was really good. I can't complain. It's a good place to eat-worth the drive and I liked the atmosphere. I found it to be a little drafty though and I noticed others keeping their coats on. I didn't have a coat so I was a bit chilly the whole meal. Good drink selection, not many appetizers though not that you'll need them. They encourage plate sharing. The pizzas are quite big especially for one!!“

“So this is the peanut butter and jelly burger. Lots of bacon, burger cooked to perfection. It's a unique flavor. Everybody should try one. I'm pretty sure you'll either love it or I hate it, I don't think there's any in between. If you're looking for a restaurant where the food is a little outside the norm, this is your place. First time there, great weight staff definitely plan on going back. Cozy and comfy and not rushed.“

“I was invited to attend a concert at Fanatics in Lima, NY, to see the Jazz group, The Howard Levy 4. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted very warmly by Norm and a few other regular customers. We arrived early to have a meal. We had chicken wings, two "garbage plates, and the beef and cheddar sandwich. We were all very pleased with our meals, which arrived timely and hot. The bar provides top shelf drinks as well. The live music is played in the back where there is ample seating. To see the bands, you buy tickets and have assigned seating. You can also order food and drinks in here as well. My husband the fried zucchini with ranch, which he enjoyed. I opted for the decadent and very sweet, snicker peanut butter pie with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and drizzled with chocolate. Delish! Fanatics reminds me of a "cheers" bar where everyone seems to know your name. Fanatics is a gem in this village of Lima!“

“Last minute decision turned into a delightful evening. We had deviled eggs and red steamed shrimp to start. Southern Fish Fry and Steak & Frites for our dinner. Delicious food, wonderful service (ask for Sydney!!!) and a cozy atmosphere.“

“This place is a local legend. I had the occasion to try it finally and I can see why. Friendly service, generous portions, reasonable wait time. I ordered a steak sub that was prepared just right - fixings were perfect, steak well-seasoned and juicy. Luckily they had an open table where I could hang out and enjoy my edible work of art! I thought the office was also on par and reasonable as well. I'll be back for sure.“

“My husband and I are soooo glad we stopped here. Tripadvisor reviews showed this place has great service; and they were not wrong. Great service, with personable staff - which makes a place all worth it! The food was really good as well. I do recommend the burgers (as mine was cooked perfectly to my liking). Overall, I'm thrilled with this little pub and would stop here again and again were I in the area. And really, chat up the hosts...such great ppl!“

“We stopped at Puppy’s on our way through town because we thought they might be dog-friendly— we were right. It may not be an official policy, but the staff was very accommodating getting us set up outside with our pup. Great food, better people. So glad we visited!“

“Great old style hamburger joint. Full of color and positive energy. Food menu was full of choices to satisfy every tastebud. The original and walhburger are still my favorites. Before you go make sure to check out the great coupon offers (simple Google search) you will happy at what you find. The meat sauce has its own special taste, not too hot and not too sweet, just the perfect blend of flavor to add to your burger or dip your fries into.“

“Finally had the chance to try a fish fry, it was hugge and perfectly cooked. Just can't say enough about the food here, if you haven't been here since the new ownership...do yourself a favor and give it a go! Dessert pretzels are a must! Bring the family in case you're wondering if it's a friendly atmosphere. They had a comedy night that was awesome, can't beat a salad bar, meal and entertainment for 30 bucks! Wings are amazing, sandwiches are great ? wraps are delish! Nothing I haven't enjoyed oh and cheap drinks ?Parking: If it looks packed, it's deceiving..... I've been here numerous times and thought Holy hell lol but then there's plenty of seating.Kid-friendliness: Bring the kids!“

“The best beer selection in town. A must-go for visitors. Great bartenders. Obviously the twisted tavern wings are amazing (undefeated best in the valley), and the mooshu egg rolls are delicious. But if it's Friday, always go for the beer battered fish fry. The side of veggies balances so well and they have perfect cole slaw.Edit to add: also very cool to look up the history of the tavern, originally called Hill's Tavern - amazing to realize people have been walking through that door for over 100 years!“

“My family and I had the pleasure of dining at the 3-legged pig this afternoon and it was wonderful. I had the pulled pork plate with cole slaw and salt potatoes. It was all delicious! I also took home half an order of ribs to enjoy tomorrow. Can’t wait to try them! The waitresses were very attentive and gave us all the time we wanted to enjoy or meal with the family. I would highly recommend them and, for the life of me, can’t understand how anyone could possible give them a bad review. Everything was great….including the 70’s music playing in the background. Hope I get the chance to come back again soon!“

“Dietary restrictions: They had gluten and dairy free options on the menu. Not labeled as such but knowing my allergy restrictions I was easily able to find something I could eat. The prime rib is absolutely amazing!!! I definitely recommend trying it! I got breakfast there as well and that was delicious!!!Parking: Nice open parking lot with plenty of parking in front for the hotel customers and restaurant customers. Parking is also available along side of the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is on the bottom floor, double doors upon entry to the lobby. Tables are available to accommodate wheelchair seating.“

“It's a good ole fashioned diner and I love that! The food is spectacular, the atmosphere is nostalgic and the service is unapologetically like being at an old friend's house (in friendly familiarity only ... they don't tell you to go get your own refills or anything LOL). The prices vs. quality of food are incredible. You'll pay much more at a chain and not leave as satisfied in gut or experience.“

“We came to The Bronze for their first Brunch ever, where our friends from BeerPass were hosting Trivia. We live in Downtown Rochester so I was pretty excited about a trip out to a town that I don't frequent. We had checked out the menu before hand. Nice website, easy to navigate and view the menus they provide.When we got there we checked out the place, cool antique bottles from around the area in their display case, patterned accent wall with a fun neon sign illuminated in a pleasing contrast color, and multiple eating sections to enjoy whatever vibe you feel.Trivia was great, BeerPass works extremely hard on them and always delivers. Challenging and fun!The beer list, drafts and cans, was extensive and impressive. I chose a couple "Brunchy" type beers throughout the afternoon. A girl on our trivia teams chose a cocktail that changes colors based on the ingredients. Something you have to see for yourselves!! A blue drink that turns pink, whaaaaat? My partner had a signiture brunch Bloody Mary that had amazingly fresh horseradish. A crazy new experience as far as bloody mary's go! It was a hit.Now the food: Breakfast Burrito with battered fries and a light salad garnish, Steak and Root Veg Hash, and a new-to-them brunch creation a Dutch Baby pancake with fresh fruit and a raspberry curd that I am going to dream about. It was cooked perfectly and even held up over the afternoon as picked at everything while we played trivia. The Steak & Root Veg hash was savory, flavorful, and tender. Something different than "Corned beef hash" that I see frequently.The staff was fun, friendly, informative, and attentive. We had the best time, thanks for a great brunch afternoon!!“

“Unexpectedly wide selection is the Minnehan's thing. From turkey with stuffing to standard burger fare, there are great choices. The wait can be a little long, but that's the price you have to expect to pay when your food is cooked for you.“

“Sometimes you want delivery, but not the usual pizza or Chinese, and you don't want to deal with the gig delivery services and their fees. If you happen to be in these parts and are craving a burger, sandwich, hot dog, or a take on the locally famous "plates," University Hots has you covered. The food is good for college-friendly fare, and relatively inexpensive, and they employ their own delivery drivers and let you pay in cash when they arrive with your food. My burger was quite large and tasty, and the fries are a cut above other places I've eaten during this recent trip to New York to see family. Still hot and fresh, too, which is more than I can say for most Doordash-delivered food.University Hots serves a market that honestly, I wish more communities had a similar restaurant to serve. Because sometimes you just want a burger, you want it delivered, but you don't want to deal with the likes of Doordash or Uber Eats.“

“Giving this a 5 out of 5 for an Applebees. Best Applebees around. Trust me ... I went to the one in gates.... Yikes. Food came out quick, pretty, and hot and our waitress was very sweet. I don't remember her name but she was from cali. Omg and they had dollaritas today! Score!“

“I'll be kind. Food had pretty good flavor. Service was very slow. The dining area was very hot, humid & smelled like fish. It was busy prior to us but slowed down, as did the waiting staff. There was only 3 families in the dining room and people who came in after us had their food served first. Staff was very kind. It's is a "Family Restaurant" so be sure you have time to sit and visit and enjoy your meal.Parking: Plenty of parking available.Kid-friendliness: Yes very. Huge coloring book section and they have high chairs & booster seats available.Wheelchair accessibility: It's a tight fit coming in the door a couple of very tight 90° turns to get in plus holding open doors.“
