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.“

“Came in for a quick lunch. Service was fast and friendly. Food was good. It hit the spot for what I needed. Also looks like a pretty cool place to hang out and have a beer. Plenty of TVs with sports on if that's what you are looking for.“

“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.“

“What can you say? All of their locations are basically the same. And that's what I love. Consistency. Our server was fabulous and funny. The pretzel and cheese sauce were friggin awesome! The Cajun tots were insanely coated in seasoning (thank goodness for the cool Ranch sauce). And the beer was cold! It was fun sitting upstairs and being able to look down into the kitchen as they prepared our food. We will definately be back!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“Copper River has become a frequented spot for us for happy hour. Their service at the bar is always friendly and attentive. They updated a few items on their HH menu and I really like the wagyu sliders and chicken tenders. They have more creative options than most happy hours and their drinks are delicious too!“

“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!!!!“

“Great food and amazing service!! Reedville always delivers with high quality food and service!!“

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

“The staff here is top notch. Jamie went out of her way to make sure we had a great experience even though I made a mistake with our reservation on a very busy night. Our server, Noah, was also excellent. Thank you very much to the hosts and rest of the team as well. The food and drinks here are always delicious. We look forward to our next visit!“

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

“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 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.“

“Absolute best customer service every time (and food!) I always see Michael (Mike) working here and he is the absolute BEST. Any place would be lucky to have him representing their company. He is always welcoming, cheerful, and informative. 10/10 I highly recommend this restaurant and especially this location. Love there vegan cookie selection, they have the best vegan snickerdoodles - Cailin“

“Amazing food, great atmosphere, and outstanding service! The Mexican-American dishes were full of flavor, especially the tacos and homemade salsas. Staff was friendly and attentive, and the whole experience felt welcoming and authentic. Definitely one of the best spots I’ve been to — highly recommend!“

“Nachos to die for, monthly open mics, cool ambiance.“

“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!“

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

“Family owned company dedicated to serving the Northwest.“

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

“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“

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

“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.“

“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“

“Tima was so amazing very detailed helped us out so much with the menu answered all of our questions went above and beyond and the service was excellent. I will definitely share with my friends and tell them about my amazing experience and this how good the service was.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Best Philly I’ve had In Pdx ! Lamb is 🔥“

“​I visit this Nordstrom Cafe (2F) often, and it never disappoints.

The atmosphere is bright and welcoming, with a great layout. As a solo diner, I find the 2-person side tables very cozy and comfortable, while the booths are perfect for families.

​During my stay in Tigard, I had another excellent meal:
​Spicy Wild Shrimp Pomodoro: Perfectly flavored.

​Penne Bolognese & Chicken Meatballs: Love that they offer a gluten-free penne option—it tastes great!

​Cilantro Lime Salad & Roma Tomato Basil Soup: Fresh and comforting.

​Hot Mint Tea: A perfect way to finish.

​The staff here are all so friendly and professional—it really makes you want to leave a generous tip and keeps me coming back.

​💡 Pro-Tips:
​Save Time: It gets very crowded during weekend lunch hours. I highly recommend ordering online in advance to skip the wait!

​Parking: Located at Washington Square Mall, there is plenty of parking available, though it can get a bit busier on weekends.

​Highly recommended for a high-quality, reliable dining experience!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

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

“Make minimums is nice. They need to expand their menu though they don't have nearly what they used to have. Your selections are very minimal. And when I received my hamburger, it was all but raw, so I had to send a back and wait again for a new 12 be cooked.“

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

“very professional when dealing with clout chasing rage baiters.“

“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.“

“Jacob at apple bees 185th showed excellent customer service. He went above and beyond on serving me and my friends. He was working fast pace and made sure our food came in hot.

Will recommend dinning in with Jacob as your server! Leave him a good tip, you won’t regret it.“

“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 👏“

“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!“

“Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to the baby back ribs at Oswego grill outside of Portland. Forget all the other entrees that I'm sure are delicious. Best bbr's I've ever had. After that, options for the chocolate layer cake.

Our server was exceptional, and several others stopped by to make sure everything was great: and it was. Thanks for a lovely dinner guys.“

“Thank you Lily E for such a wonderful dinner experience! Today was a rough day for me and I really appreciate your kindness and hospitality! Dinner was delicious and you are such an amazing server! Even though it was a busy dinner rush you were on top of everything and always checked on us to make sure we were doing great! You are absolutely wonderful at what you do girl and we look forward to coming back again! Thank you so much Lily E and Cheesecake Factory! : )“

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

“We went here in the summer with 3 kids, it was great! The food wasn't amazing but it was good and filling. Inside it stayed cool. The service was really great, the woman who came to serve us was kind and was good with the kids! The wait time was pretty short and we weren't hungry for long. I would go here again!“
