26 Best American Restaurants in Westlake

“Roula was an amazing bartender. She made our experience memorable. We will definitely be returning soon!“

“We had my mom’s 90th birthday party with 28 guests at the Westlake location this morning. Because we are regulars there, Nick the manager bent the rules a wee bit to allow us to have the back area, near the bar for our party right at opening time on a Saturday. The service by wait staff Mary and Lauren was fabulous, every one of us LOVED our food and your hospitality was off the charts! Thank you again for allowing us to have this 90th in the best of all places for our youngest family member (age one) and all the way up! Love, love, love Kitchen Social. Ps. My pimento burger and ceasar salad were ‘da bomb’!“

“The place has great waitresses and food is good , big place too ,it's always packed and a great atmosphere. 5 star.“

“I was highly impressed with the food. I ordered the Voodoo pasta and it was amazing. Highly recommend. I was passing through Ohio enroute to Colorado and this meal will have me wanting to come back. On top of the meal being delicious the presentation was immaculate. Good job Chef!“

“Wonderful food is a foregone conclusion at the Cabin Club. I’ve never had a bad meal there. Today’s lunch was lobster bisque and the steak salad. Highly recommend both. But what made my lunch a truly wonderful experience was the absolutely phenomenal service. I am a senior with mobility issues. It has been awhile since I was at the restaurant and I completely forgot the front steps. Only three, but still tough for me to climb solo. When another patron mentioned my difficulty to the hostess (SO sorry I didn’t get her name!) she came out and took me around to the side door, where it was much easier to get in. My lunch companion had to duck out early, so this awesome hostess not only helped me go out the side door, she walked me all the way to my car! This sort of kindness, sadly, is in short supply these days. Thank you, Cabin Club and your fantastic staff for going above and beyond!“

“Awesome food and awesome service“

“I’ve had breakfast at Claudette’s many times. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked to order. I highly recommend Claudette’s to everyone looking for good food, prompt service, and affordable prices.“

“We had dinner at White Oaks tonight and it was absolutely delicious! I splurged on the twin lobster tails. The very generous sized tails, served with drawn butter, were perfectly cooked, fresh and wonderful. My sides of vegetables and twice baked potato were equally yummy. Dessert was a wonderful creme broulee. Service was spot on professional. One of the best meals I've had in a long time.“

“Invited to brunch from my friends for the first time. We were greeted by a very friendly hostess. Once seated our bartender/ server, Darion K. readily welcomed us! He gave us the history of the restaurant, details on drinks and venue. Our food was served hot and with great presentation which was all prepared by an awesome chef! Sadly we forget the person behind the scene who does the preparation! I will return and spread the word! God bless them all!“

“I really like this place I always forget about them they have such a varied menu but everything is pretty good. The one thing I do not like is their Booth style tables for a larger group have absolutely no room the table is just too big you can barely get in and out of the seats unless you're a very small child or a small person. It is very uncomfortable.

Parking: The paid parking spots are closer to the restaurant than free parking spots free parking spots are quite a distance away“

“We've been to the Westlake Rosewood Grill several times and always leave Extremely Satisfied. The Managers, Servers & Staff are Always Very Professional, Friendly, Polite, Considerate and make our dining experience truly delightful. The food and portions the Chefs prepare are always consistently Generous, Delicious and Excellent! We Highly Recommend a dining experience at this location!“

“📍 Moosehead Tavern – Westlake, OH 📸 @mooseheadsaloonwestlake This place is all charm and chill vibes. It’s cozy inside with a cool little patio that makes it feel like your neighborhood hangout—but with better food. Stopped in for a quick lunch today and lucked out—half-off ribs was on deck, so you know I had to jump on that. 🍖 Ribs – 7.8/10 Fall-off-the-bone tender with a flavorful sauce that hit the spot. Not fancy, just solid and satisfying BBQ at a great deal. 🍟 Fries – A mountain. Literally. They gave me what felt like 4 pounds of crispy golden fries—no complaints there. 🍅 Ketchup – Unexpected MVP Not sure if it's house-made or some secret blend, but the ketchup was different... and honestly? Delicious. It added something extra to every bite. Whether you’re out for a laid-back meal or a quick bite on a deal day, Moosehead Tavern delivers. Check it out if you’re in the Westlake area! 🍽️ 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.“

“Fantastic Hawaiian Pizza“

“Very good service especially with Scott. He's professional and very attentive to our needs. We love our wings and shrimp tacos. The Brownie Sundae was excellent. Highly recommended place especially with Justo Saborit entertainment.“

“Wild Mango in Crocker Park was amazing. Our waiter was so amazing and everyone there had a sense of humor. This is a must try restaurant. Valet was only $12.00. and the food was delicious. My 1st time here and I will be going back. The atmosphere of the restaurant was so pretty and high end. The salmon was delicious and I fitted shrimp bisque for the first time and it reminded me of Campbell’s tomato soup it was good. Overall a 10/10 restaurant!!!!“

“Food was amazing! Wild berry lavender French toast was perfect, and the million dollar bacon is a can't-miss! Rachel is a FANTASTIC server, friendly and attentive without being intrusive, and kept a great attitude despite it being busy. Will be recommending this to anyone I know who visits Cleveland!“

“The staff there is very respectable, good quality and food good pricing good drinks the manager and the front of the house manager is very polite to my every need I’ll bring my family there at least three times a week. Had a couple of parties there very very unique. Definitely will be having more parties there.an geting the word out“

“Love this place. Def recommend going here for a quick bite or for the energy. Owners are amazing as well as the entire staff ! 🙂“

“Ashley went over and above today to accommodate our requests. The outside bartender, however, had an attitude and was loud enough so we could hear her comments. Ashley made up for the bartender’s bad attitude. Perfect service needs to be awarded. Ashley was that great server.“

“Finally tried this shack. Dinner on weekend not too busy. Online order took about 10-12 mins.

CONS: the Shack burger was size of Dave's Single but 6.50. Slices of tomato were very thin. Paper thin lettuce. Hot dog was kinda skinny & came w/ no toppings, all are extra. Asked for cheese sauce on side of fries but they were drowned in the sauce & not crispy as we wanted.
Just started eating on patio (since it was 72deg) but then some jacked loser started smoking right by us so we had to move inside after 2 mins.
PROS: wife liked the veggie burger patty.
Burger tasted fine but not close to top 20.
Not likely we'd come back Cept maybe for a shake at $6-8. Yikes.
Deserves 3.5 stars

Vegetarian options: The veggie shack was one of the best.“

“Kindly wait staff, half filled due to restrictions maybe in staffing“

“My family and I had dinner on June 12th to celebrate a couple of Birthdays and our service was excellent. I had almost lost hope with most restaurants (post-Covid) because of the drop in Good Quality Service in a lot of local restaurants. Our Server, Mike ( AKA Jiu Jitsu Mike) has restored my faith in restaurants : The Cheesecake Factory service and food was excellent! Mike was very nice and attentive to me and my family. Drinks were filled promptly and often, he gave us time to review the menu and had stopped by several times to check if ready to order. We never had to 'hunt him down' to order,to request more Ranch for my daughter, to order desert, or to ask for the check. He made himself present but not overbearing. The food was excellent, I had the Renee Special ( Soup-Salad- 1/2 Turkey Sandwich). Dad had the Spaghetti and Meatballs, other people had the Asian Chicken Salad, and Club. Really nice evening to spend my birthday ( and Father's birthday too, June 12th- Go Gemini!!), here at Cheesecake along with my family. Thanks Mike!!“
