39 Best American Restaurants near Grafton

“Been here last two times I’ve visited the area. I enjoy the coffee, environment and service. Had the Chicken fried steak this time and it was pretty tasty. Normal American sized portions. Family friendly brunch spot. So many menu options. They have a regular menu and a check style menu where you can customize your meal and had them you “check” for the kitchen.“

“Love the place but was a bit taken back when I paid in cash at the bar. Never got my change it was assume their tip a bit odd to assume wasn’t worth talking about it next time it will be on a credit card“

“📍 Flippin Jerry’s – Elyria, OH 🎶🔥🍔 Food truck vibes done right. With lights flashing, music playing, and the crew clearly having a blast, Flippin Jerry’s isn’t just a meal — it’s an experience. Here’s what we tried today (and LOVED): 🍔 Kickin Jerry Burger – 8.3/10 Wagyu beef. Pepper jack. Fried pickled jalapeños. CLE Campfire BBQ sauce. 🔥 This thing had heat, flavor, and balance. Every bite delivered a spicy, smoky punch. A seriously good burger. 🍟 Zippy Fries – Elevated fry game Hot, crisp, and tossed with garlic & parsley — way more than just a side. These fries hold their own. 🥤 Chocolate Malt Shake – Dessert MVP Rich, creamy, and dangerously drinkable. Almost grabbed a second. No regrets, just restraint. If you see this food truck around Elyria or the CLE area, do yourself a favor — go try it. Good food, good people, and a vibe that makes you want to hang out all day. 🍽️ Two food lovers, one page—justifying our epic food binges, one bite at a time. Follow along at @joeandjrkfoodreviews for mouthwatering meals, honest scores, and the best hidden gems you need to try. Come hungry.“

“There was 7 of us total including 2 kids that came in for dinner. It was busy and we only waited about 5 minutes for a table. The waitress was wonderful and attentive, food was good. My daughter ordered the pancakes and I am not a big pancake person but they tasted so good! We love blue sky and will be back for sure!“

“Great food and attentive bar godesses“

“I took my kids here on Saturday, and it was amazing! Congrats on 3 years and here's to many more!“

“Just visited here with my boyfriend tonight and we were the only people in the front dining room! The food was great and very great value. Feel like they are getting screwed because of the construction right there. Would have went past it myself if my boyfriend hasn’t been there before and pointed it out. Very much recommend. Will be back very soon. :)“

“Great food. Great staff. Restaurant good use some TLC on windows and seats to clean.“

“Love everything about this place.“

“The food and service is always excellent. They have some games for kids inside the dining room that our kids enjoy playing while we wait for our food.“

“The Nest at Grey Hawk Golf Club offers a diverse and delightful dining experience, evident from its well-received weekday specials to it's live music. I really appreciate a place that supports live local artists. Usually the unsigned artists are way more talented than the mainstream ones. Have you heard of Master T.C. & The Visitors. they are one of the best Ohio bands I've seen you would love them and they would go perfect with the vibes of The Nest. Ive seen The Domans and Billy Likes Soda. Will definitely be back for more live music! The variety on the menu, spanning from appetizers and flatbreads to steak and live music on Fridays, showcases the establishment's commitment to offering a range of enjoyable options for its patrons. The Nest at Grey Hawk Golf Club is a versatile and inviting spot, appealing to both food enthusiasts and those seeking an enjoyable evening out. Its also the perfect place to go on a date or just a night to hang out with friends! We will be back soon for sure!“

“Love this place. Our favorite breakfast spot by far. The chicken and”sweet” waffles are great. Pretty much love everything I’ve tried there. Keep doing what you guys are doing.“

“I love the burgers here and also the fries. Not usually a huge fry fan but theirs r delicious! The workers here are always friendly and upbeat! Their positive attitude can lift my day! Love the kids meals. Just right portion with a scoop of ice cream to boot! Win win in my book!“

“Yummy! Me and my hubby stopped in after our appointments today. Had a delicious breakfast. I got corned beef hash, sunny side up egg and he got chopped steak and eggs and we split some pancakes 🥞. Everything was cooked to perfection, flavorful and great price. Waitress was a sweetheart too! This is the type of place we both grew up eating at with our grandparents. Hope to bring our kids with us in the future one day. Happy customers!“

“Our first visit to Wolfe's and we were quite impressed. Seated at a window table in the bar, very comfortable. Greeted by Eileen who was super nice. Went over the menu with us, took our drink order. Ordered a pepperoni & sausage calzone to start. DELICIOUS!!! Dave had a steak salad and I had grilled cheese sandwich with chips. We finished the afternoon off by ordering 2 specialty pizzas to go. I can't stress enough the excellent service Eileen gave us. We will definitely be back and ask for a table with Eileen. Thank you, Eileen! Carol and Dave“

“My family and I traveled back to our hometown in Ohio for a funeral. We wanted to have some fun to cheer us up and we got in late, so this was the only place open later on a Sunday. We were so happy that we could let go and have a nice time together for some affordable bowling and some good food. The bartender was very helpful and she gave great service. Thank you to the staff for lightening our night last week.“

“Had breakfast here today and I loved the service and food. Have been looking for a restaurant like this since I moved out here. Happy to finally find a non chain restaurant that I want to dine at often.“

“Excellent food. Great friendly staff“

“Food was good, but the temperature in there is ridiculous. With all the business you have, I think you can afford central air. Definitely won't go again in the Summer.“

“We've been coming here a few years for lunch with the Grinch. We always have fun, the staff is friendly and the food is good. Really the best Grinch ever!!! 🤣 Hopefully they do this for years to come, the family loves it. Thanks! ❤️💚“

“My family has had a couple benefits there and was a great turnout, but than I had to actually order something from the menu and I have to say it was EXCELLENT, the food is great and they have an awesome menu!“

“LaGrange Tavern Review

LaGrange Tavern is a cozy neighborhood spot with a laid-back atmosphere and solid American pub fare. The menu includes classics like burgers, wings, and sandwiches, often with a creative twist. Drinks are reasonably priced, and the bar has a good selection of beers and cocktails. Service is friendly and efficient. Great for casual nights out, watching a game, or grabbing a bite with friends.“

“Great wings great bartender and nice atmosphere!“

“Great food and great portions. Like that they have a homemade dip for their homemade kettle chips…rather than just catsup.“

“Our server Lisa was amazing. It was very busy but she was on top of everything. Our drinks and food came out very fast and she was so attentive with refills and sides. She was also very nice and informative. Best experience I’ve had at a restaurant. She deserves a raise“

“One day with my family tonight and the girls took our drinks then came back and said I am not your waitress but she will be back soon so the waitress is taking care of everybody else except us. We waited over 15 minutes and then I asked to speak to the manager because I was tired of waiting. I was gonna pay for my drinks and she said sure and I said I shouldn’t even be paying for these drinks as long as I waited, she was like OK I’ll take care of it. Very rude lady. Very very rude and I’ve been going there for a long time. See me again“

“We are not frequent flyers to Applebees but we went last week & had a good experience so we decided to go again. Tonight our waitress Rebecca went above & beyond as I can be a tough please I have a lot of requests & special orders well Rebecca came to our table with a smile & asking use with enthusiasm what we would like to drink I was kind of taken back because these days service with a smile is lacking but not with Rebecca she was all smiles & happy to get & fill all my requests as she was serving a lot of other guests. She did so with a smile! She also made sure to keep checking to make sure we were happy & everything was good. Food was on!! It was delicious! We are impressed ! We will be back for sure.“
