48 Best American Restaurants near Phoenix

“We have been here for dinner several times and the food, cocktails and service have always been great. We typically eat at the bar and the gentleman bartender has always been very attentive and friendly. We were finally able to get reservations here for a holiday and the Mother’s Day buffet was exceptional. Our table was set up for us when we arrived, and I was so impressed with how organized everything was considering how many reservations they had. The food was fresh and delicious, our server was amazing, checking on us often. She even went out of her way to ask the kitchen to make a few strawberry shortcakes for our table. The owner stopped by to check on us as well but something that really stood out was at least 3 other friendly servers thanked us for coming in as we were leaving. Just a great experience all around!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“They treat us like family. Hands down the best custard there is and awesome daily specials!“

“This has been our go to since we moved to the area. The food the bartenders and staff in general are amazing! We had reached out asking if Duskee’s could handle a large group as we were celebrating a graduation and had family in town . They went above and beyond ! They had the table ready, they provided us extra care and service and made sure we were taken care of. The entire family enjoyed all of the food and the experience! We can’t thank this facility and staff enough for everything !“

“Nathaniel cooked our food (briskett stuffed grilled cheese), it was amazing! Sam is the best server we have had so far at Smokey Bones. She suggested some delicious sauce to go with my sweet potatoes. While waiting for our food, we enjoyed playing pool. We definitely will plan for many more visits to Smokey Bones :)“

“I ate there while I visited my son for Thanksgiving. I had a hard time choosing because everything sounded so good. I ended up choosing the Cubby and boy was I happy that I did. It was amazing......no kidding! If I lived there It would be my go to favorite.“

“Great dinner on Thursday night with my wife. The food is aways excellant and the bar tender Shaun Preble always has excellent menu and drink suggestions.“

“Sunday brunch is always nice here, but the live music is WAY too loud. It’s really hard to have a conversation.“

“Persimmons knocked it out of the park again! New menu items were a huge hit! Entertainment made for a great atmosphere! Love Tuesday nights Jazz series !“

“Our waitress was great, very personable food was good“

“Good food. Friendly server. A bit slow but worth the wait“

“I had Pasta’s cater a luncheon for my son’s graduation from the police academy and the food was absolutely delicious…. The chicken parm was amazing. I will definitely order from them again! Thank you!“

“Food was alright. Not the freshest it didn’t seem, server was maybe new, seemed overwhelmed and a bit confused, but was friendly and attentive. Atmosphere inside was strange. Idk how to describe it. We ate on the deck and watched the lock. Very fun to watch the boats come through.“

“Dined here last evening. The warm brie appetizer was very good and a nice change from ordinary appetizers. The steak was very tender and cooked to perfection. For dessert I had the chocolate torte which came with raspberry sauce. The combination of the chocolate and raspberry....yum! The staff were all nice, friendly, and informative. I'll definitely be back!“

“At Rosie's it's all about the friendship. It's a place where they treat you like family even when you're visiting from another state. I don't travel much, but when I do, I look for a local place where they appreciate me paying cash.

When I walked in, I was greeted with a rousing good morning from behind the bar. Tables surrounded this tiny place and the bar sat in the center. The aromas of deliciousness wafted through the air. I knew I was in the right place.

I picked up the menu and looked for their house specialty. Then I saw it. The sever carried out this plate of heaven to another patron. I HAD TO HAVE THAT! I don't even know what I ordered but the first bite was like nothing I'd ever experienced. It was some version of eggs benedict and I didn't ask what it was. Now, eggs benedict usually takes four bites per English muffin but this one took six. Each bit was as good as the first until. I admit, it was gone. The home fries were great but nothing to hop around about.

As an author in town for a convention I found the place for the beginning of my next novel titled, right now, "Men without Butts."“

“We recently had 2 baby showers at The Reef. I can't say enough about how great they both were. The food was great, the room upstairs was perfect! Thanks so much to Bobbie for your help, we appreciate coming early to decorate and your great communication about all the details. We highly recommend!!“

“Only in town for a couple of night and decided to go in to Muskies to eat one evening. Very glad we did. Super friendly place. Buffalo chicken pizza is the best pizza I've had. Stayed and had a few extra beers at the bar with staff and locals.I hghly recommend Muskies. I hope I get the opportunity to go back.“

“I am here for 6 weeks from Florida. I have totally enjoyed going to Fairway Billiards frequently. The pool is great, the management is great and the clientele is friendly. I have enjoyed my time spent there very much.“

“Terrible management. So many decisions made during the event instead of planning before the event like any other business. Staff reserving tables is completely useless and absolutely ruined the experience for my family“

“The Maplewood Bar & Grill is a place you should check out they have entertainment every night with open mic Monday and Tuesdays and there food and service is great ,highly recommend the chicken tenders way better than Tullys“

“We ordered takeout and the food was excellent. We got the turkey club, beef on weck and a burger. It was all fresh and the fries were crispy not soggy. It was our first time ordering and we will be putting this place on the top of the list. The staff was great on the phone and the pickup process was easy. Staff was friendly and engaging!“

“So happy Atlantic Seafood is in Baldwinsville. I have tried haddock everywhere. This place makes the flakest, best battered, perfectly cooked haddock everytime. The staff are very friendly and quick.“

“Everything has always been amazing and delicious I live for their specials“

“I haven't been able to get here in a while. I don't know who the cook is, she was not here the last time i was here. But today August 21, 2022, i just had one of the best breakfasts i have ev“

“We have always had amazing service at the Clay location. Tonight, Ethan was awesome. Very attentive and ensured we had everything we needed to have a perfect meal and experience with our kiddos. He even asked if we wanted the kids meals to come out early which was great! Not everyone thinks to ask that, so super appreciated! Thank you to the Clay location for continuing to hire hardworking individuals, it’s really hard to find service like we’ve had there, elsewhere. Keep up the great work!“

“We had a wonderful night here for my Niece's birthday. We were seated almost immediately for 10 people. Kat and MacKenzie were our waitresses, and they made our experience here a great time. Thank you also to the manager /receptionist who helped us out when our planned location at the Longhorn in Camillus was very rude to us! Never going to the Longhorn in Camillus ever again!“

“great Breakfast and friendly staff!“

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5-Star Experience! A massive thank you to Average Joe's Beernasium for making our surprise Bachelorette Party truly unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was electric. Food: Absolutely delicious and budget-friendly! Every bite was a delight. Drinks: Crafted to perfection—each one better than the last. Live Band: Phenomenal performance that had us dancing non-stop for three hours! It felt like we were reliving our college days. We genuinely didn't want the night to end. The combination of great food, fantastic music, and an incredible atmosphere made it a night to remember. We'll definitely be returning—for the vibes, the tunes, and especially the food. Already planning our next pizza night with takeout from here!“

“Bre is the best! She makes the best drinks!“

“I enjoyed garlic lemon pepper wings last night. I ordered them crispy and they were perfect! The people there were all laughing and having fun. The music was fantastic. The bartender was attentive to everyone. Fun night out!“

“First time here and definitely won't be the last!The staff is very helpful and friendly. Not to mention extremely accommodating!I work with individuals that need different levels of support based on their different abilities and medical diagnosis' .I frequently take my clients out to do fun things like bowling in the community. This time, the man that was working noticed very quickly that we were having a hard time finding the right ball and keeping the ball out of the gutter. He came over and pulled up the bumpers and found the perfect ball for my client to use. He was so helpful and kind the entire time we were there and made a huge difference in my clients experience! And the other customers were awesome too! The gentleman bowling next to us was cheering my client on right along with me to help make their experience even better! After he left and we finished our last game, the other people sitting next to us asked if we wanted to keep playing (they overheard us discussing our budget) and offered to pay for another round. ...Idk if these men even realize what a huge difference those little things make when it comes to helping differently abled individuals feel good while out exploring the community and have people around them making it so much better when they're treated as equals by their peers. Thank you so much for making my clients day that much better.“

“Today went to have brunch with friends and yall where insanely busy . YALL KICKED DEVINE BOOTIE! Seating waa quick, service amazing , food devine! CHEERS TO THE STAFF!“

“This was the best experience I’ve ever had in a Dennys. The food and the service were outstanding!“

“Food was good. Server was ok“

“We came in for the Sunday special and were lucky to have Sarah as our server. She was amazing. I have celiacs and she knew just what I could have and made sure my order was perfection. From the soup French Onion to my Turkey dinner! The food was amazing. I could not have the Sauerbraten but that is what my partner ordered. He thought the was amazing and was able to bring home a wonderful piece of raspberry pie. (which I could not eat.). But Sarah checked over all of the dessert options to try and find one for me. The food was amazing. Our service was stellar. And we told Sarah we would be back to see her again. Thank you so much for a lovely meal!“

“Tried Tullys after it came recommended from some locals during my last visit to Syracuse.

Has a solid sports bar vibe. All the bartenders were friendly and the atmosphere was vibrant but not to noisey. My bartender jasmine was awesome.

The chicken tenders definitely met the hype. They were not the usual pre cooked crap from the freezer. They were hand breaded and fresh when they came out. The portion size was huge for the price. 2 people could easily split a dinner portion. The tenders were crispy and juicy and totally worth the visit. The fries were nothing to crazy but were good. If your traveling through and looking for a place with good food and laid back atmosphere, hit this place up.“

“It was our first time eating here and we were blown away by the service and the food! Keep up the great work!“

“We had an event for our HS kids, from our of the area. Gino & Joe's was excellent at accommodating us. 25 delicious pies. Fast service and really nice staff. For an order this size, they did not compromise on quality. Every source was great! Thank you!“

“A hidden gem in New York, The Suds Factory River Grill delivers a memorable dining experience by fusing beautiful scenery with wonderful food. This restaurant's beautiful environment and delectable fare make for the ideal setting for a special lunch. It is tucked away along the riverbank.The Suds Factory River Grill welcomes you with a magnificent environment and breath-taking river views as soon as you arrive. You are invited to enjoy your lunch while taking in the tranquil beauty of the surroundings in the outdoor seating area, which is furnished with comfortable tables and umbrellas.Let's now discuss the food, which is the main attraction. The menu of The Suds Factory River Grill combines upscale foods with traditional American favorites that have been expertly prepared.“

“I got the Korean BBQ Mac and cheese and the brussel sprouts. The Korean bbq Mac and cheese was excellent the brussel sprouts were good but I would have preferred it to be heavier on the vegetables than the bacon. (Personal pref) They were still good. And don't let the small size be misleading it is fulfilling. The food customisation is about limitless. The place is nice however the decoration is more zen than the atmosphere exudes. Tables were clean and there is indoor and outdoor seating. Will come here again.“

“Good food at a fair price- our server “Bryce” at the Clay NY location was amazing!!“

“This place is awesome !!! A little tricky to find but other than that , it is top notch !“

“Service was top notch killer thanks“

“This was the best experience I’ve ever had in a Dennys. The food and the service were outstanding!“
