50 Best American Restaurants near Newtonville

“I chose this restaurant in the ALB as it was recommended if you had time and wanted to enjoy your food and dining experience; which I had and did. It was mid afternoon and I needed something to tide me over until I arrived back in NC. I was quickly greeted by a server, don't recall her name, but she was wonderful, and she gave me the perfect amount of time to figure out my plan. I ordered a large glass of house white wine and a side of the truffle parmesan tater tots. Each item arrived timely and perfectly tasty and at optimal temperatures. I know they were tater tots, but they were the most elevated tater tots I have ever enjoyed. They were crispy, hot, and sprinkled with delicious grated parmesan and roughly chopped fresh Italian parsley all while cooked in a light oil of truffle. Chef's kiss! Great, friendly servie too!“

“So, this PR girl asked where I could get a good Reuben. 5 people recommended Illusive. You'd never know it was there unless you looked for it. Boy, was I not disappointed. The best Reuben I've ever had. Bought 3 to share with building managers. I'm sure they will also start going too.“

“delicious food and amazing atmosphere. I love this oasis, it is a lively place with elegance and still peaceful for business meetings“

“Naughter’s is THE breakfast place you want to go to while in Troy (as someone who inherently doesn’t scream about brekkie spots).
The goat cheese omelette special came to me and oh did it sing. I added bacon, because life’s short and why not. An arugula side salad accompanied and was everything. I will be coming back for the spice bag one day. Thank the heavens for local establishments like this.“

“Delicious meal and top notch service by Tabatha and her crew.“

“I love Metro 7 Diner! Always a great meal, fantastic service & super friendly. Thank you!“

“The food was sooo good! excellent service by our waiter. Will return!“

“lovely atmosphere with delicious gourmet American cuisine. it was a lovely new year dinner. staff very friendly“

“This is by far my favorite coffee shop in Telkwa and Smithers. I probably spend far too much money then I should here, but I absolutely love it. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere is great, and don't even get me started on the coffee and the food. I don't know if I've had anything that I didn't like from here. I've tried pretty much everything from the pies, meat pies, the freshly made sourdough bread that is just delicious, and the burgers on Fridays. You also have things like the cookies, the brownies and so much more. On top of all of that there's even a lot that I have yet to try, the ice cream being one of them. She even went on vacation for a couple of weeks and that was probably the longest couple of weeks without a good coffee. Oh yeah and I almost forgot, the breakfast wraps are absolutely delicious. You got to try them. Try anything try everything try it all, I'm sure you'll love it.“

“Very lovely owners. Husband and I stopped in for a bite to eat. It was our first time in as we try local spots and very glad we did! Small clean little cafe and the service was exceptional. Very friendly service and I even had to ask a patron what she had ordered because it looked so good! Good portions and prices. We will have to give lunch a try next time.“

“We had a great lunch after the farmers market! Food was great and came out fast, service was also great and attentive. Got to meet the owner, Joey, and his family. Since we were the last table before close it was almost like we got a lunch and a show. Can’t wait to go back and try their brunch!“

“Very Good Spot Eat, the entire bourbon crew is great. Sara stuck out to me, I asked her the special and she made sure the Caesar Salad had no tomatoes which is great because I dislike them. Overall I’d give Sarah a 10/10 for service and making sure my order was correct. Thank you to the entire Bourbon Crew 💯“

“Great local restaurant. Food and service always excellent! One of our favorite local restaurants. Good luck and continued success!!“

“Greg and his entire staff did an amazing job on my husband's party! Everything was great! The food was phenomenal and the service couldn't have been better! Please contact Greg for parties or catering! You will not be disappointed!“

“beautiful venue with great food“

“Instead of recommending the restaurant or not I wish I could rate it with stars. I would give a 3.75 the food was the good. The service was good. The atmosphere was good. Nothing was stand out amazing. For the price I would think the entrees would come with a salad or bread for the table but they do not. Drinks of course were expensive as anywhere but I got the smallest pour of wine I’ve probably ever received. We went for a special occasion and I wish we would have went somewhere else. Maybe I’ll try again with friends again for lunch and hope for a better experience.“

“The best cocktails in Albany! (Get the Capital City Renewal!) I had the best birthday dinner there tonight. Thanks to the team for making it special. The appetizers were incredible!“

“We used Ted’s for our work picnic and what a hit it was. Jon arrived on time, set up quickly and everyone enjoyed the custom menu he set up for us! Top tier communication as well as service and of course food. We can’t wait to have Ted’s back next year!!“

“Excellent restaurant!! I travelled from Florida to meet a friend on business here in Albany.
Upon entering the restaurant area this morning I was met by the hostess, Monique, who welcomed me with a smile! My server, Kristy was superb! My breakfast meal was prepared perfectly… from taste to presentation everything was great. I checked, spoke with another staff member named Sandra and learned that the Chef’s name was Andrew. Additionally, the busboy, Justin also checked with me to see if I was ready for my plate to be removed or if there was anything I needed. Good job, Justin! By the way, I am a traveling businessman that goes to a lot of places. I am not a paid Reviewer!!! I cannot say enough good about Mr. D’s restaurant. This kind of customer service and attention to detail is hard to find anywhere anymore. Thank you to all involved!!

“Always friendly service, great options on the menu (they make custom changes), happy hour specials, and they have a great event schedule! Don’t forget to come in for your birthday- wings or clams or n the house!!! When we go for a birthday celebration we always get deer off the menu and get drink specials as well!!! I would suggest the Eggplant stack but ask for the Lisa Special- pesto instead of marinara!!! It’s absolutely to die for!!!“

“Tonight was mine and my fiancé first night going here. The staff was nothing short of amazing. The food was phenomenal. Everyone was so polite and very attentive. Thanks for a great dinner. Most importantly thanks to your amazing staff.“

“I’ve been looking forward to checking out the restaurant, Dove & Deer, since I first encountered their food when their chef was highlighted at the annual Summer Gala fundraiser here in Hudson last year. Their chef served an incredible amuse-bouche with gooseberries and the chef who was there sharing the amuse-bouches was wonderfully charming and the food was incredible! I was so impressed that I’ve been following their social media since then and have been looking forward to visiting the restaurant all the while! I was recently in the area and while I unfortunately wasn’t able to visit the restaurant in person- I was able to order through Door Dash and the meal was incredible! We ordered an assortment of things to share and were thrilled with everything! -Spicy Kale Caesar with shredded kale, croutons, and shaved parmesan! -Truffle Parm Fries with scallions and truffle aioli! -Mini Wagyu Beef Hotdogs made with wagyu beef, served in buttery toasted buns, and topped with mustard, ketchup, and relish! -Hot Lobster Dip made with lobster claw and knuckle meat, gruyere, gouda, fontina, spinach, scallion, and crispy wontons! It is often very difficult for a restaurant to adjust their menu to translate to takeout; and for them to do so where every single dish was not only delicious but also mostly with a great presentation, says a great deal about their attention to detail. This is a restaurant I look forward to dining at again many more times over the years!“

“Wow just had Pilgrim sandwich w/chips and 7 layer bar for dessert...Everything was excellent and sandwich was huge...Thanks Carol!“

“Stopped at Inga's last week and just want to say how beautiful and pleasant Bianca was. The food was fantastic, but she made our experience one that will definitely bring us back!“

“This is a great small, family run fast phone spot. It has been family run for at least 4 generations. I enjoy their Greek burger, and I like their hotdogs. For a quick, simple bite to eat that doesn't break the bank, I highly recommend them. Best visited in the summer on a nice day. Indoor space is very limited.“

“American Food & Deli is easily one of the best spots I’ve tried in the 518 area. I ordered a chopped cheese, 6 honey hot wings, and 6 lemon pepper wings, and everything was fresh and packed with flavor. The wings were crispy and cooked perfectly. The honey hot had the perfect balance of sweet and spicy, and the lemon pepper was seasoned really well. The chopped cheese was loaded with meat and cheese and was just as good.

The service was excellent too. Before I ordered, the employee let me try a wing, which was a great gesture and showed confidence in the quality of their food. On top of that, the prices are hard to beat for the quality and portions you get.

Great food, excellent service, and unbeatable prices. I’ll definitely be back.“
