37 Best American Restaurants near Fairview

“This place is great! Not to be confused with the other place that went to SE Portland.“

“I loved Bumpers!!! The food was amazing. They were super busy because it was mother's day and yet the service was still excellent and the staff super friendly. We got there almost a half hour before our reservation and the hostess apologized for us having to wait about 15 minutes to be seated. I had the bacon gouda sugar and creme bruele and it was great. The creme cruelest had the prefect ratio of custard to caramelized sugar. I will definitely be returning.“

“Alex's Bar is a friendly place where you can enjoy good food and beverages. I adore the bar staff. They are the best.“

“Favorite place… like family. Mimi, Peter, Cindy, Jessica & Jennifer are awesome owners and bartenders … drinks are always waiting when I come through the door. Love the live weekend music and weekday Karaoke“

“Picked up an Amalfi Bounty sandwich for the road. Massive hoagie roll but delicious flavors and so many vegetables. Cheese is thinly sliced so it doesn’t overwhelm the fillings. There’s a parking lot here and the 2 unisex bathrooms are clean.“

“My friend and I visit here every Friday evening. The staff are always friendly and accommodating. Especially Jason. He remembers regulars, and is very genuinely caring about the people he serves. The servers, including Lupita, are very prompt and nice. Your drinks never go empty! We prefer this location because it’s not only open until 10pm, but because we have had such pleasant experiences with the staff. Food is pretty darn good too! Fresh breakfast meats and French toast! Thank you!“

“Great food , better service and amazing atmosphere, all because of the service. Not 1 person walked by us without asking if we needed anything.“

“Move back to Cali and every time I come to through Portland I make a stop food is fire 🔥“

“The service is excellent, the food is delicious and the place is cozy and familiar. Everything is clean. ☺️👍🏻. 🥪🍳🥘🥗“

“This was, without any hyperbole, the best food I think I've ever had.
The Bolognese was DIVINE!

My coworker had the Fusilli and he too said it was very good.

It was an amazing experience, one which I have told multiple people about already. My next visit to Portland WILL include a visit to Bistro 23!“

“Been around forever and I've been going there forever. It's an awesome time capsule of simpler times. Fast and pleasant staff. Good diner grub. There's usually a short wait for a table if you decide to get breakfast after 8:30AM on a Saturday.“

“We love Crave and have gone there several times. The mac and cheese is beyond great. We love the pasta they use, and the sauce is amazing. I always have extra to take home too. Not your grandma's grilled cheese is another favorite. I personally don't understand the bad reviews. It has been so great every time we go we have been completely satisfied and have told management several times. Compared to a lot of places and fast food at the same prices, it is a no-brainer. Thx Crave for our new place!“

“Dining in the dark was worth the experience but the food was disappointing.“

“Whenever my man and I go out to see our favorite band’s, which is 1-2 times s week and all our friends are there as well…..let the Shenanigans begin, because we all get the party started, because the bands set lists are so good, we can’t stop dancing and grooving….We always have the BEST times of time’s @ M&Ms, no doubt about that……And all the band that play there are some of THE BEST in the PNW…“

“Savannah was very nice today. You can tell that she’s on her a-game. Chicken and Waffle was amazing“

“My wife and I had a wonderful dinner. She ordered the chicken strips and I had the steak. Both were properly cooked and appealing. Staff was friendly starting with the greeting as we came in. It was a weekday so it was rather empty and peaceful at the time. Background music was pleasant. We learned about then from their sponsorship of Outlaw Country music radio. Our only suggestion may be adding more decorations to give it a more distinctive character. (She made me add this. :-) ) We look forward to coming back again.“

“Great staff. Delicious food!“

“I love this place, everyone is so nice to me.“

“Amazing food! Huge portions! Smiling staff and owner! Excellent customer service!

Breakfast for 5 was flawless. No mistakes! Everything cooked old school and delicious.

The most amazing meal was the 12oz burger steak smothered in fried onions and mushrooms with breakfast gravy with 2 eggs and hash browns. Scrumptious!“

“Great food, especially brunch/lunch menu on Saturday and Sundays. Benedict’s are delicious, Beignets with toffee drizzle are so good!“

“Very nice atmosphere, fast service“

“I always have a fabulous experience at the 192 Café Yumm. They always get my order right the entire staff is incredibly friendly. The establishment is very clean and the food is delicious and nutritious. My Oura ring is always very pleased when I order a meal from Café Yumm. I have become a regular there over the past six years and would recommend Café Yumm and this location especially, to anyone who is looking for a delicious nutritious meal on the go.“

“wonderful dj , perfect bartenders, lovely customers. comfortable perfect place to meet fantastic new people“

“the only place to get buckwheat pancakes“

“First time there tonight. Staff was friendly and took good care of us. Food was awesome. Happy hour was pretty decent. Very nice outdoor patio and seemed to be very dog friendly. (We didn’t bring ours but others did). Will be returning customers for sure.“

“Good food & service. Thank you, Juana“

“duh... awesome it has the same name as me.“

“My friend and I decided to come and have happy hour and we ordered california roll the wagu beef sliders the cod tacos and the fishermens stew. I enjoyed the sliders very much. The california roll had more rice than filling but, the crab meat, avocado and cucumber had good flavor but the quantity was very small. the cod tacos didn't say it was blackened with spices that were a little more than my taste buds could handle. the fishermens stew was very flavorfull and had well cooked fish and seafood. I would not recommend the california roll because of the amount of rice.“

“Nice enough place... Almost like a bar you can bring your kids to? Not a lot of places to get a hot dog and they have a full menu of big Costco sized dogs for a not unreasonable amount of money. I had the burger on Texas toast and it came with fries for $13, however some of the hot dogs were $12-13 which is good if they came with fries but they don't, they come with chips, fries are 4 more dollars and are grocery store variety crinkle cuts... Not sure why the burger is cheaper than a hot dog... The burger was pretty good. My family seemed to enjoy their hot dogs. We had a couple beers that were good but not cheap by any means. It's not overpriced but the place has kind of a bargain feel, I think I would have liked it more it was like a "wow that was cheap experience". If you're gonna charge $12-13 for a hot dog include fries or maybe a 2 dollar upcharge 4 bucks is too much for a hand full of crinkle cuts. Lottery cheapens the place a bit and makes it feel more like a bar than it should. It's not a bad place.

Kid-friendliness: Kids allowed and there are some arcade games.“

“Went with my kids and their best friend. Got the 2 for 25 with my older daughter, we got the chicken Parmesan with pasta and the bourbon street chicken and both were excellent. My younger daughter got the kids Mac and cheese and my kids friend got the cheesy pizza. Everyone was happy and full at the end and we received regular check ins from our server who did an excellent job. Definitely recommend this location“

“The halibut fish tacos are quite good. The large pieces of fish are perfectly fried, and nicely topped, though I'd suggest more Cilantro. The tacos don't come with any sides, however, the two tacos are a good light meal on their own.

The potato wedges were just OK, but not memorable. A little more crisp and something other than sour cream would really help this dish.“

“My husband and I got the sandwich combo (+side +drink) and we were so happy! Mine was the thai peanut with curly fries. Best chicken sandwich I’ve had in a while! Plus the guy who makes them is so nice 😊
Go, you won’t regret it.“

“Ok hear me out. I am giving this place 5 stars because 1. I don’t want to mess up their 5 star rating and 2. Because I want to give this place another shot but also share my feedback! We visited yesterday 2.23.35 their menu looks amazing & we went with the Bahn Mi pizza. We had spent a few hours checking at several food carts as for work I eat, rate & review food & restaurants! So we did snag our pizza to go! My fiancé and 3 year old had some fresh at home and I tried a piece the next morning (today.) So when the pizza was fresh my fiancé said maybe it was lacking some flavor and execution, good but was lacking. He said the sauce on the pizza could have been maybe a slightly spicy sauce and the veggies could have been more pickled (were a very mild pickle) and maybe some more cilantro on top. Basically overall he just said it was a great idea but could use a little more flavor & work. Well we tried a piece this afternoon and he mentioned that the flavors seemed to pop more the next day, basically that it was better the next day. I thought it was good though! But he DID mention somehow it seemed to be better the next day. We LOVE bahn mi & this place does have wonderful reviews so we would like to try again and see if maybe it was just a slight fluke! Would recommend to try for yourself & I think it’s a fair price for a speciality pizza!“

“I tried their brisket...⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5. So good. I just got done eating it and my mouth is watering just thinking how good it was.“

“We had a delightful wine dinner featuring UncleZen’s spices and cuisine!! PLEASE PLEASE add Uncle Zen’s shrimp and crabcakes to your menu! They were divine ❤️“

“Good food and service. Daily specials are yummy, and drinks are tasty. A/C is better then being outside.“
