27 Best American Restaurants in Niagara Falls

“I called the week before arriving to inquire about a large group seating, the hostess took my name, number and size of party. She asked me to call the day before to confirm, which I did. We arrived earlier than expected and had to wait a little bit so current diners could finish up and give the staff time to setup for the 38 of us. I was very pleased with how friendly and accommodating the staff was for the size of our group. A group of 38 adults and youth hockey players from is a lot to handle. Not one complaint from our large group. I would definitely recommend and will, happily, return when in the area again.“

“I enjoyed a juicy chicken and rib combo dinner, and it was amazing. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone, melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The food was hot and delivered quickly, and my server, Kelsey, was amazing! I also met the manager, Kyle, who was very friendly and came to check on our table. I really enjoyed the experience and would say this is the best Swiss Chalet location I’ve ever been to. I will definitely be coming back!“

“We visited Turtle Jacks while on vacation. The food was excellent, but two servers that were in the place were not nice and did not want to serve us. Until Jen who was amazing. We sat there for 30 minutes and the two servers kept walking pass us like we didn't exist. At that point my husband and I were getting ready to walk out until Jen came over, she apologized for the delay and service. She gave us the BEST service ever. She went above and beyond ! Thank you JEN you made our experience at Turtle Jack GREAT!“

“We had dinner at your restaurant this past Monday, and the view from our window table overlooking the falls was spectacular. The service was so good. Our server Nitsa was attentive to our needs and checked with the kitchen when my niece (who is a vegetarian) asked to make sure the chowder was made without bacon or chicken broth. We appreciate that Nitsa made the effort to ensure my niece enjoyed her meal. I was a little surprised that the menu that we were given did not match the menu posted on the website. I was looking forward to the ravioli, but it wasn’t listed. And it was probably my error, but I didn’t understand that if I wanted vegetables, I had to order an additional side. My meal of just chicken and potatoes seemed a little lacking, but the meal was very good.“

“Great food and wonderful staff.“

“Wow, this establishment is a far cry away from the pirate bar it used to be back five some odd years ago. We came here from Hamilton for a new years dinner. Had the place to ourselves, it was nice. A gentleman, by the name of Harmeet owns this establishment. Very friendly gentleman, very inviting, greeted us and told us about the food and displayed a passion for his food unlike any I've seen before. He makes most his food and all his sauces from scratch. Things like the fries and mozzarella sticks he gets in bulk, but he ensures a quality provider. The mozza sticks had that nice gooey stringy stretch to them. The fries were the first hint this meal was going to be good. Well seasoned and crunchy, done just right. My brother's girlfriend had them in a poutine and the serving was very generous, definitely fill you up to the max with one order. She was very happy with this dish. My brother had the parm chicken sandwich and I had the Nashville Chicken sandwich. The chicken patty was perfect, so juicy. The Nashville wasn't your traditional style sandwich (usually garnished with coleslaw, pickles, and tossed in Nashville sauce) it had the seasoning dry rubbed on, I think there was a sauce to it, but the chicken was so juicy it really didn't need much. It was topped with a slice cheddar, lettuce, onions, and I think there was tomato, but I'm not sure. It was so good it was gone before I had time to really analyze it lol. The key take away from this meal was my wifes chicken wings... Of anywhere we have ever had wings, these by far were the best we have ever had. The breading was thin and not overwhelming, good meat content too. Generous saucing (she got the honey hot), and they are also marinated to boot, absolutely phenomenal. Harneet has a skill for his homemade sauces, he let me try his dynamite sauce (which for most people I would say is at the top of their tolerance for hot sauce, he also has hotter), but the ballance of sweet to heat is perfect. I can not stay enough about how good this food was. The place doubles as a convenience store, so its very unassuming. This place is on the route for one of my favorite motorcycle routes, so I will be back 100%. Thank you for serving me, and the outstanding dining experience.“

“Harvey's is Harvey's, you know what you're getting. At this particular location, it is worth the review because it is always clean, the staff is unusually pleasant, and they seem happy. They even seem to enjoy being around each other. It's actually a comfortable place to spend my hour lunch..... Their mood helps lift mine on a dreary workday.
If drive thru also always friendly, quick and ready.“

“I had a great experience at this Harvey’s location tonight thanks to Christine! She was incredibly very kind, professional, and welcoming throughout my visit. You could tell she genuinely cares about providing excellent service and making customers feel comfortable. Thanks a lot Christine!“

“My partner and I have been coming to this IHOP every weekend for about a month now, and we always have a great experience! This weekend our server, Brittney, was especially wonderful — super friendly, took the time to chat with us, and even gave us a nice local discount when she found out we’re from the area. The food is always great, and I can’t get enough of the tres leches pancakes.“

“Food was great. Our server was very pleasant and beautiful. All around a great time“

“Great burgers and fast service!

Harvey’s is always a solid choice. The burgers are really good, and the best part is that you can customize them exactly the way you want. Everything tasted fresh, and the ingredients were crisp and flavorful.

The service was super fast, and the staff were friendly and efficient.
If you’re looking for a quick and tasty meal, Harvey’s is definitely a go-to spot. 🍔🔥“

“Alyssa was our server. She was very friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. She made me feel comfortable with my food allergies and was beyond accomadating when asking to make a table change to provide a better view of the falls. She made the experience a 10/10“

“I visited Saturday, November 18, 2024 before seeing The Beach Boys at OLG Stage and server Maddie B served me boneless wings, fries, Budweiser, ice water and cookies & cream cheesecake.“

“Giving 4 stars because the food quality was just average, particularly if you are a vegetarian. Other than that, the ambiance is amazing and the view is priceless! The service was great too. And you get to go to the top without being in a big lineup. Its of course very pricey but I will highly recommend this for your special occasion.“
