50 Best American Restaurants near Aloha

“We had a fabulous dinner last night at the Vintage Room. The views were stunning. Our server, Mariah, was THEE best. Food was delicious, loved the variety of options. Drinks were great. And dessert was super yummy. Thanks for making my boyfriends birthday special, we can’t wait to start making this a regular date night spot.“

“I had a fantastic Spanish coffee here on a cold fall afternoon.
I also had a really good pulled-pork nacho that was plenty big for one person. Their bbq pork was a sweeter style, and tender meat which is the real test of good meat. Nachos were very cheesy, again… very much appreciated.
My server was very good and very friendly.
I will return to try their wings, and also their zuppa toscana soup special on Thursdays.“

“Best food and service in the area! Highly recommend!“

“I've always had decent food here at Bannings. This morning I ordered Pumpkin pancakes.....what a disappointment. The pumpkin batter needed salt added to it and it also could have used a bit more sugar in the batter. The syrup was not real maple syrup but table top ad says, "warm maple syrup," so I expected real maple syrup. It also says, "whipped butter." I asked the waiter about the maple syrup and he told me it was "artificial" maple and argued the fact that the restaurant never said "real" maple syrup. Maybe the butter is whipped margarine...who knows what liberties are taken in menu descriptions. I'm a "real" maple syrup customer.“

“Love the decor. So much to look at while you’re there. Fun place to hang out and grab a bite. Best service I’ve had at McMenamins. I’m used to it being super slow. This was a nice change. The small size likely helps. I want to come back for a movie soon!“

“From Silverton, Oregon and I went hunting in eastern Oregon and I harvested an amazing black bear I looked around for a butcher and nobody was taking any wild game. I called the meeting place and they said they were in drop offs were from from 10 AM to 2 o’clock p.m. I was instantly met with an amazing staff that was knowledgeable, kind and very friendly. I ended up meeting a manager that ran their wild game department, which I have to say that woman is just absolutely amazing with information. Very knowledgeable answered every question I had honestly I was a little hesitant about going all the way to Portland area for a butcher, but I have to say there is no finer butcher team in Oregon that I honestly can say I would rather use other than the meeting place I will continue to use them for all of my game processing absolutely amazing team great greetings just an absolute nice people to deal with most booster shops are very blunt. Some can say not very friendly straight to the point and bye-bye not this place this place is energetic very friendly, respectful kind very knowledgeable. You will not find a better butcher shop in Oregon from what I have seen and I have seen just about every butcher shop we have in Oregon. These guys are top notch if you’ve never left a butcher shop completely smiling and having a great experience you should take the drive to Hillsborough and try these guys. Absolutely amazing. Cannot say enough about these people.“

“The buttermilk pancakes are addicting! We also had the build your own omelet and chicken fried steak. Everything was delicious and the portions were enough to take leftovers home for another meal!“

“This was my first visit to Copper River. I was in a party of 4. Our waitress (Andes) was awesome! I don't eat out very often but when I do it's never fast food. If I'm not 95% satisfied with my experience then I won't go back. I'll definitely be going back here again!!!!!“

“Great breakfast place. Good Simple eats. Must visit when in John’s landing…“

“Really good food, very friendly staff, and really good managers, I definitely recommend Stanford’s in Tanasbourne , everyone needs to come in and try it if you haven’t yet, I recommend the fried calamari and the chimichurri steak tips, they are really really good, save space for dessert and try the chocolate mousse, and make sure to try out the drinks the way is made is all fresh made juices, so if you are in the area make sure to stop by at Stanford’s in Tanasbourne, you will not be disappointed.“

“Great food! Friendly, knowledgeable service.“

“so, just a disclaimer... I HATE waffles. Absolutely cannot stand them. That being said... I just had the Belgian waffle here, with raspberry puree.... and it was SERIOUSLY delicious!!! Perfect texture, slightly nutty flavor, and the puree was to die for!!!!“

“Amazing food and wine and excellent service form Mikey and his crew!“

“great cheese steaks , have the best customer service. all in all best experience“

“We visited about a month ago to celebrate a milestone in my career. Savannah was our server and she was AMAZING. She was so friendly and went above and beyond to acknowledge my accomplishment. They brought me a card signed by the staff and a really pretty dessert. They better hang on to her! In general the food was amazing and the ambiance was great. We didn't have to wait too long for a table. All in all would go back and recommend to a friend.“

“Me and my wife have been coming in to Davidsons FrostTop since it reopened, and i will have to say the steak bites, potato skins, are fantastic. so far we have yet to have bad food here. I also have had their hamburgers. they let me custom order my hamburger the way I want it. I would recommend stopping in and give them a try. they also have adult drinks which is a nice change. super friendly staff and great atmosphere. we will of course come back.“

“The best place for milkshakes, fries, and wings!“

“Paradise Restaurant & Lounge offers a stylish and comfortable dining experience with a diverse menu featuring a blend of international and local flavors. The ambiance is inviting, making it great for casual dinners or special occasions. Known for attentive service, flavorful dishes, and a good selection of cocktails, it’s a popular spot for both food and nightlife lovers. Ideal for those seeking a relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere.“

“Stripes Restaurant was a small food stall on the second floor of the mall in the food court. It sells cheeseburgers, fries, grilled cheese, and chicken strips. I got two medium cheeseburger combos for my little brother and sister, which were about $13 each.“

“They have the BEST Happy Hour! Our host AND server, Tina, was so attentive and had a positive, energetic personality! She made my husband's birthday special by bringing him not one, but TWO of their special cakes with a HUGE sparkler! It was a great experience for our first time there! Will definitely be back!“

“Wonderful restaurant, the staff is very nice and welcoming. Food was amazinghats off to all the chefs they know how to do it right. Great team you have. Will be back very soon“

“I come to this particular Black Bear every year because it is the one nearest to the hotel nearest to where my dad lives. I go to a Black Bear Diner pretty often, and this one is up to the same high standards as basically all the others I've visited. This visit, however, was not to see my dad but to go to his funeral. It was a really rough day today. I could hardly leave the hotel room. But when I did, and I sat there just reading for a bit over a hamburger, listening to nothing in particular, my waiter was very helpful and attentive despite there seeming to be a lot of people and not enough waiters. He had no way of knowing that today was one of the hardest days in my life. He was kind, attentive, and engaged me in a brief conversation in a natural way without it being forced. I sat for a bit after my meal and had refills for another half hour, until just after closing time. My waiter's name is Ethan. Melissa told me that while she wasn't the manager, I should put a review up online so that my compliment gets back to him. I don't know if I will be back here any time soon. If I am, I will hope to see Ethan, who just did his job and who was genuine.“

“Had a great time . Haven’t golfed in years“

“Always looking for healthy restaurants and this one was great! Had the vegetarian Thai bowl with brown rice and tofu. Washed it down with a non alcoholic Heck beer.

Everything was lovely, portion size was perfect, cost was fair, service was top notch. Most definitely will be back.“

“Maybe not the best value food wise, but the fact that they have so many options (where else can you get bibimbap and Al pastor tacos) and always good coffee makes it great. But the best part is always the cashier! Always proud to show her latte art even if it’s in a togo cup!“

“Friendly atmosphere food is always good service is prompt. Has a Cheers type feel.“

“It has a decent salad bar with a fine selection including eggs, olives, peppers, chicken, ham, fruits and more.If you have a nut and dairy allergy like me, go early or risk cross contamination from the mad rush of folks who do not pay attention to that.There is a hot food bar as well. The menu changes daily but cannot eat from there due to cross contamination / cooking risks due to said allergy. I hear good comments frequently though.There is also the Sub4 restaurant inside if you have time for a sit down meal, traditional American plates.Last but not least there is a coffeehouse with a fair selection of coffee / tea options.“

“Not bad. The pink mildew in the shower was kinda icky but other than that hotel was pretty decent. Loved Netflix in the room!“

“My husband and I have been going Sunset Grilll for at least 20 years. The food is the food is always good., great service, good coffee and the best breakfast anywhere around.“

“This was sooooo good! We got the mac and cheese and chicken!! The portions were large too!! I highly recommend. We went on a Saturday evening, so we had a long wait (one guy working), but it was worth the wait. (Next time, I'll order, run an errand and come back.) The owner was busting his butt and quite friendly. Overall, really great!“

“Good place and consistent. However this last time I ordered a wrapped hot and jazzy with chicken. Guy asked if I needed a fork and I said no, it’s a wrap and I’ll use my hands. Then I get this thing! Still tastey but what even is this? Lol“

“Celebrated my 33rd Wedding Anniversary with my spouse on 8/7/25. We ordered two braised beef sandwiches, a summer special, with a side of chips, the shrimp arugula salad split for two, AND the tasty, but not too sweet bread pudding!!!! OMG😋Soooo DELICIOUS. I gave all of it a 10/10 and will definitely be back to try more food items!!
Caitlin was our server and did a nice job waiting on us and telling us about the Marketplace Cafe!! It is truly a hidden surprise that is WORTH checking out!!!“

“We sat in the bar and bartender was great but definitely needed help. He had every table full and then a big party(20) people waiting for their table getting drinks…I realize it’s hard to find people to work but you really need two people working in the bar. Thankfully we were patient and didn’t mind, but other people wouldn’t have been. Also the host took his time clearing a table for us…. He visited with another gal doing to go orders for 10 min. Before he cleared a table for us“

“This was our first time here and certainly won't be the last. The ambiance, service and cuisine made for a marvelous evening. We enjoyed decadent salads (Swiss Chef and Beets with gorgonzola) The dessert was divine, and like our salads, the portions were generous and the quality of ingredients were excellent. We feasted on a double berry tart a la mode. its presentation was photo worthy. All food had an artistic presentation. We were so impressed 👏“

“Visited for an event, but I will be coming back. Gorgeous location, beautiful facility, and a lovely Syrah.“

“Ordered to-go chicken and waffles, and the turkey BLT. Was ready to go at the stated time. There were a handful of beautiful cakes right at the front, ready to go. The only thing was that it was not packed in a to-go bag but save the environment I guess was the idea. Would have loved some utensils as well. The chicken was some of the best fried chicken that I have found around the metro area. Waffle was pretty good too and the syrup was fantastic. Free street parking right out front and around the area.“

“Great salads and divine drinks!“

“Located inside the Embassy Suites. This a nice restaurant to relax in at the end of the day. Nice variety on the menu. Salads were fresh and quite large...easily serving 2 people. The butternut squash soup was really good. Taysia, the server, was very pleasant.“

“Had a wonderful Veterans meal at thr Tanasborne location. Casey was our server. She was very professional and friendly,. Everything was prepaired just as requested, and she stopped by to ask if everything was OK 3 or 4 times. The best Veterans meal I have ever had. Will be returning again many times before next year. Although I will not forget next year V Day. Thank-you for honoring us.“

“My husband and I were visiting our son and we stopped by for lunch. It was amazing! I can’t wait to come back! The service was amazing and the food was even better!“

“Food was filling and tasted great. I honestly didn’t think I’d be full, but I was. Service was good, just a bit slower since it was really crowded on the weekend. They have lots of food options, the atmosphere is nice, and I really like the building. Definitely recommend checking it out if you haven’t been yet.“

“Nice local flare. Away from the city. Excellent food and service.“

“Always a terrific time. The rustic setting, reliable McMenamins food and beverages, and very engaging service staff. The place was swamped for a Sunday afternoon (plus a private event on the balcony) so the kitchen was understandably a bit slower than usual. Otherwise a total hit.“

“Fantastic good looking sweet servers. Great food and beer selection. All around great place to watch sunday football“

“Great food, excellent service.“

“Cool little place.. great food & people..“

“This place is engraved in my mind from a random snowstorm that struck about 8 years ago. In a nutshell, my friend and I got stuck at McMenamins from a snowstorm then ate and drank like royalty. Their food is delicious and their brews top it off for the ultimate experience. So next time there's a snowstorm, drop by John Barleycorns.“

“Very good food! They brought free champagne and an ice cream sundae for my daughter’s birthday. Nice atmosphere! Great service!“

“Always awesome every time“
