25 Best American Restaurants near The Plains

“This was our first visit here. The food was great, the prices were reasonable, the restaurant staff were absolutely the best and the atmosphere was fun. It’s too bad we live 3 1/2 hours away because this place could easily become our regular breakfast spot!“

“Great people food and atmosphere. Know there regulars well and what they want“

“This is a perfect place for a great brunch and live music. Staff was amazing are dog friendly.“

“Took my father out for breakfast this morning and had the nicest server. She was super friendly and had a great recommendation on what to get. I had the breakfast burger and dad had the biscuit stack. The food was great and very generous portions. When we left, Dad forgot his cell phone on the table. We only knew that because our server came running out of the door as we got to our vehicle. Unfortunately, I didn't remember her name but we are very thankful and will definitely be back.“

“What a great little place! Great food, and fun times.“

“First time eating here and I chose to get the chopped steak smothered with a loaded baked potato. The food was great lots of flavor and was made in a timely manner. Only complaint I have is the chopped steak was more like a giant hamburger patty but I can look past that bc of the flavor and service. I will be going back.“

“I just want to say Issac B is a fantastic server! He definitely deserves a raise. Apparently they had switched to a new system the day I went but you would never know by how well he handled tables. Knew exactly when I was going to ask for another drink and brought it over!“

“Friendly family location, it’s the people here. Specifically grandma that makes this place what it is and the waiter is no exception to the reason this place feels so much like home.
The food is so simple and delicious. You will
enjoy.“

“The food, the servers, the atmosphere, all amazing. I can be a food snob, and Purple Chopstix is one of the best places I have ever eaten.“

“Super yummy breakfast at an amazing price!“

“Never had a bad meal & the chicken livers are excellent.“

“Absolutely love Tammy’s! Nice size portions, friendly wait service, great prices. Best country diner I’ve ever ate at. Very busy little place, which means good food.“

“We were in town for the Ohio v WVU game and 11 of us dined here.

It's a university run restaurant which gives the personnel real experience. Also, because it is university run, they do not take gratuities --which seems odd in this day and age -- but rest assured-- it does NOT affect any part of the dining experience.

We had a fabulous meal and the service was excellent. Sam was our lead waitstaff, but, because we had 11, others chipped in to help.

We're a motley looking crew, but we had a great time here!!

Many thanks to The Ohio University Culinary Services for a well run establishment!!

MUCH love from this Bobcat crew!! 💚🤍😼🤍💚“

“Fresh delicious and balanced!“

“Mayberry Corner! Great food and drinks too!!“

“We will be back.The pizza and wings were awesome 👌“

“I spent a night going around to all the bars around uptown Athens and found that The Union is where all the queers and indie folks hang out (which is exactly my kind of place). Also, their bathroom has fancy toilet paper, like charmin or somethings. Love this place. Also the bartender rendell is very kind.“

“I will always support this business and the owner! thank you for showing love to our disability awareness March ❤️❤️“

“First timers and the food and atmosphere was great!“

“This was my first time visiting Broneys. I was with my husband (his first time here too) and my daughter. We got a sampler appetizer, mushrooms, tenders and egg rolls. All of those items were delicious. I got the classic burger with onion rings, my husband got the mushroom Swiss burger and fries. My daughter got the tacos. Our waitress was amazing, friendly and very good at her job.“

“Please make an effort to cover the other brick walls in the same coating you have in the new part of the bar, because the writing everywhere else in the bar indicates that this action is okay. Some skinny dude with a tribal tattoo on his calf and a scruffy mustache threw my sharpie outside yesterday because he “caught” us writing our names on the walls. It’s everywhere in the bar, so I don’t think the staff should be trained expect drunk college student not to do it. This guy was just on some sort of power trip and wanted to be rude. He very easily could’ve just asked us not to do write on the walls, and we would’ve respected that. Like I said, the wall in the new part of the bar with that coating on it is free of sharpie/can easily be cleaned, so maybe consider doing that on ALL the walls to avoid your staff making stupid decisions like this one in the future. Thanks!“

“Alright, buckle up, because I'm about to drop some truth bombs about the one, the only, Madisyn at Red Brick Tavern!

First off, let's be real, Madisyn isn't just a bartender; she's a wizard with a shaker. I swear she can tell what kind of day you've had just by looking at you and then whip up a potion, I mean, a cocktail, that's exactly what you need. It's like she has a sixth sense for stressed-out souls and thirsty patrons.

But wait, there's more! It's not just the drinks, it's the whole vibe. Madisyn manages to create an atmosphere that's both chill and buzzing with energy. One minute you're relaxed, sipping your drink, and the next you're laughing at some ridiculous joke she cracked. Seriously, I'm convinced she moonlights as a stand-up comedian.

And let's not forget the most important thing: she remembers your name and your drink. That's right, in a world where everyone's a face in the crowd, Madisyn makes you feel like a regular. So, if you're ever in Red Brick Tavern, do yourself a favor and pull up a stool. Just be prepared for amazing drinks, killer jokes, and maybe a little bit of magic. You won't regret it!“

“The employees were just standing around talking as we stood there waiting to be searved. The kitchen workers just stared at us and did not notify anyone we were waiting One kitchen employee would walk out to watch baseball that was playing on the TV.. The menu was crappy with little to choose from. The floor was sticky as well. We did not get any utensils sauces or crackers with our order. Nobody came to ask if we wanted refills or to even see how our meal was. I would not have left a tip if I paid at the end of our visit.“

“Would like to say that everything about our night was speedy. from getting seated to getting our meals. Everything was absolutely superb. And would like to give a huge shout out to our waitress Olivia. She was absolutely amazing, and she really showed that she cared about her patrons. She was definitely one of the better waitresses we have had in a long while. Keep it up Athens Ohio Texas Roadhouse!!!“
