40 Best American Restaurants near Cortland

“My grandpa used take me here after hunting and fishing so bringing my own son in brings back memories. I ordered the fish dinner and it was so good now I'm craving it days later. My son says the pancakes are 10 stars. I definitely recommend.“

“Highly recommend for a peaceful and beautiful atmosphere with a delicious selection of wine and foods on the menu! The live musicians are always fun, engaging, and happy to accommodate requests from the crowd. The new addition to the building for seating is wonderful. So happy to see how Greene Eagle is growing and expanding! The owners and staff are always so helpful and friendly as well! Also…be sure to try the wine slushees. They’re divine. 😍😋10/10 👌“

“The owner, Chet, is one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. He’s very fair with everyone, and treats everyone like family. Yellow Dog sits right on mosquito Lake and has the most beautiful sunsets during the summer. Sitting on the back patio, listening to entertainment, and enjoying some cold beverages, is something I look forward to every summer.“

“Don’t go here very often, but every time we stop by is always a good time. Great food and drinks that all come out faster than expected. Great service every time as well despite how busy the restaurant usually is. Love the atmosphere and decorations inside as well!“

“Urban Tap has become one of my top choices for an evening out to dinner. Food is ALWAYS amazing. Staff and owners are the best. They work hard and know how to treat their customers. Also, gluten free options available! See you again soon!“

“Dined on a Saturday at 4PM, birthday celebration, first experience. Hailey our server excellent. Patient, knowledgeable, accommodating, attentive, courteous, personable..can't say enough. ( I noticed two other servers who lacked Hailey's expertise). Happy hour menu was a great option..variety, portions, value and being available each day is an added bonus. Our selections were served hot and as ordered. Delicious. Alcoholic beverages clever and tasty. The only negative takeaway was the rowdy wedding party celebrating in the adjoining room to ours. Ruined the ambiance completely(which i realize is not the fault of the facility). Would strongly recommend a separate area for such gatherings. Thank you for a delightful experience.“

“We were met by a gracious hostess who found us a table—even though we arrived a half hour before our reservation. A week earlier I had the best ever Butternut Squash Soup and Waygu Smash; my date savored the Overnight Short Ribs. We loved the atmosphere so much we brought friends with us a week later to enjoy the lamb, salmon, shrimp and vegetable pie. We also loved the warm bread with olive tapenade. Milan was an exceptionally attentive server both evenings. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I have eaten breakfast here several times and never been disappointed with the food or the service. It has a neighborhood atmosphere that is both friendly and very welcoming. The cook is excellent! The sausage gravy and biscuits along with the grilled home fries are the very best you will find anywhere! You can get practically any omelet made to order. If you’re looking for a good breakfast at a reasonable price... this is the place!“

“I'm currently sitting here eating, the food is fantastic! I got chicken tenders because I'm a toddler, but they're so 🔥. The food was as fresh as could be, I literally had to wait a minute to start eating. The tenders were fantastic! I'm not sure what the breading is seasoned with, but I can tell you it's good! The fries are nice and crispy and also nicely seasoned. The hush puppies are the best I've had in a long time, and the Sam's Sauce is also delicious! I would recommend it twice if I could!“

“Absolutely the best pizza!!“

“The spaghetti wasn’t worth $11 and they really mean “spaghetti w/meatball.” There was only one. 🤷🏻‍♂ Service was the best part of the experience. I prolly should have gotten some pie though. My loss.“

“The food was great, the service was awesome and the atmosphere was Awesome too!“

“We had top notch service from the second we walked in the door until we left. It was a very relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. Food was by far the best BBQ we have ever had. The ribs fell off the bone, the best cheesy potatoes and Mac and cheese I have ever had and the hush puppies were delicious!! I would highly recommend if you have not yet been there!! We will definitely be back soon!!“

“My mom’s been after “good fried chicken” for months. When I saw the owner, all of the times friends told me about his fried chicken being amazing popped into my head. So, I got some for my mom. She said “when I say good fried chicken in the future, this is what I mean. Only this kind”. So, my friends were correct and my mom will never eat another establishment’s fried chicken for as long as she lives. Also, the jojos and the regular Stromboli were amazing! Glad I saw the owner!“

“Very home town feel, friendly staff good food🙃“

“went in for the first time very welcoming accommodating food is unbelievably amazing everything made in house the fries were delicious hamburgers juicy and moist definitely a 10 out of 10 highly recommend“

“Excellent evening. Everything was perfect. Especially our server Debbie. She made our day 🤙🤗“

“Maranda was our server tonight. She was attentive and friendly. She has a great sense of humor.
The stuffed peppers were excellent.
The chicken stir fry was good but the sauce was a bit on the sweet side. Keep that in mind when ordering.
The French onion soup is to kill for“

“We picked Enzo's based on a dessert picture we saw on Google. we were not disappointed. the food was fantastic and our server Chase was amazing. He answered every question we had, was very polite and took great care of us.“

“From the start to the finish so amazing. Staff is amazing. Food is fantastic, reasonable pricing, great portion sizes. I love this place.“

“Mary is awesome as a waitress and the food is good“

“Ate there for early dinner service this evening, enjoyed the happy hour pick 3 special with soup (pasta fagioli), 8 oz. steak, and the strawberry cream cake. The soup kicked it off in the right direction by being absolutely delicious! My buddy gave me his salad with the house vinaigrette dressing, which was also killer. The steak came out cooked perfect medium as requested, seasoned incredibly well without being overbearing on the taste buds, juicy, and delectable. The French fries that accompanied the entree were fine old school style, which may not be for everyone, but was right up I my alley. Fresh sliced Italian bread accompanied the meal from the beginning and was perfect for sopping up the soup, salad dressing, and steak drippings. The meal finished with an incredible dessert cake that was above average in flavor but elevated even more but the warm berry compote on top. I’ll definitely be coming back to Cafe 422 and will highly recommend it to anyone who considers. Thanks for the memorable meal and great service! I’ll be dreaming about that steak tonight 🤤“

“Came here on a whim for lunch and was blown away! Everything from the atmosphere, service, food, and drinks was simply amazing. Our server was kind, attentive and knowledgeable. Can't wait to come back and try more things!“

“Korean dart pub feel
I came during the day on a weekend, and it was a friendly beer pub where locals sat in groups of two or three at the bar and watched the rugby game.
There are various activities such as pocket balls, darts, basketball, lottery machines, punch machines, etc.
Even if you are Korean, you can enjoy it without any problem.“

“Racist hotel!! Plenty of hotels in the niles area with good customer hospitality“

“This place is just everything a restaurant should be. The food was spectacular, the waiter was there like batman every time we needed anything and left us be when we were enjoying our date, the booth was clean and we were able to choose our seating. 20/10. Wish I remember what the waiters name was he was the GOAT.“

“Good food and good service.“

“great place to go to you can't go wrong going here“

“We (4) had a wonderful meal at 2pm on Wednesday. Alyssa served us to perfection. She made suggestions & was cheerful as well as kept the table cleared & glasses full. The food was well prepared & arrived in a short time.
We will be back.“

“Incredible food, nice service. Wedding Soup Pizza is the best. Fish "Fry" today was definitely top notch, loved it. Thank you.“

“Great service nice place for a good breakfast free coffee refills to take home“

“Nicole P. was our server. Food was delicious and my wife had a great time.“

“The quality of our local steak and shakes have significantly improved along with the staff. Much cleaner, tastes better, and even seems more filling than it used to. On top of that the new company policies like banning microwaves, beef tallow for their fried goods, and grass fed beef for the burgers. It went downhill a while ago but I can definitely say it has done a complete 360 and has honestly been one of our families favorite quick fast food locations now. Definitely better than McDonald's.“

“I went to the Applebee’s in Niles and I had an amazing experience! The food was delicious and the service was even better by our server Jessica! The manager Jeff even stopped at our table and asked us how our food was and had a nice conversation with us. I will definitely be returning to this location:)“
