24 Best American Restaurants near Saint Helens

“You can order their yummy breakfast from the bar and you can eat in the bar area.“

“They have the most delicious mushroom burgers and the bar tenders and are always fast and friendly. The service and food is great!“

“My family and I had great time. The food was great and served promptly. The staff was super nice, friendly and accommodating“

“The food was killer! I love good BBQ, and too many places confuse burnt with smoked—but this spot is the real deal. The flavor was so good I forgot to even use the sauce. Everything had amazing flavor, the staff were super friendly, and the pricing is very reasonable. I’ll definitely be back with no hesitation. Next time I’m trying the mac and cheese with brisket or pulled pork. 😊“

“Love this place! I’ve eaten here many times and normally try something new to me. Whether it’s lunch or breakfast, you will never get a bad meal or bad service. The owners are wonderful, too. Introduce yourself to them!“

“The food here is delicious. The Klondike tavern offers quality options that include offerings for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten free diets. Their cocktails are delicious and their staff is friendly and shows great hustle. The new owner has done wonders for this place as a go to food destination in St. Helens. Beyond the good food and drinks, they also have great events! Just in the last few weeks they have hosted live music, drag shows, charity balls, and even a paranormal investigator during Halloweentown this year. The owner works hard to give local artists and musicians performance opportunities and hosts events that benefit local non-profits while ensuring no one is turned away based on ability to pay. St. Helens is already benefitting from the energizing new venue. I can't wait until they finish the rehabilitation of our historic hotel, as I am sure it is going to create even more wonderful opportunities for residents and visitors alike.“

“Great atmosphere and great service!!“

“Great place, hidden gem in a gorgeous location with great food and wonderful food.“

“Amazing food! Amazing service! And the best mojitos around! Definitely a place to visit if you haven’t already 😋“

“They serve raisin toast w/o charging extra. I don't know any other restaurant in the Portland area that serves raisin toast. Their coffee is only $1, as compared to $4.29 at the other restaurant I go to. They brew decaf by the pot, which is way more convenient for the drinker. Generous portions of potatoes. And their servers are all nice.“

“Very nice service!!!“

“Absolutely wonderful service and amazing food. I was very impressed and this will become a regular spot for us!“

“La Cocina Real delivers Mexican food that’s genuinely amazing across the board — you really can’t go wrong with anything here. Whether you’re in the mood for tacos, enchiladas, or something off the specials board, everything comes out flavorful and well-prepared.

The consistency is what stands out most; it’s rare to find a place where every dish feels like a safe bet. Add in a warm, welcoming atmosphere and solid service, and it’s easy to see why this place has earned its reputation.

If you’re craving authentic Mexican food and don’t want to overthink the menu, La Cocina Real won’t disappoint“

“Saturday night karaoke is so much fun“

“I just had their halibut tonight 10/10 would recommend! The starter sauce wasn't my favorite, tasted like sweet relish but, the fish was so good, didn't need it“

“My family loves to come to Fuel, and we do go almost weekly. We have always had the best service and the food has always been AMAZING! We eagerly wait to hear what their daily specials are, but the grilled cheese with tomato bisque is our standard order. I love the elk chili and the meat & cheese tray. Then there is the dessert, a skillet cookie to die for! I've seen other reviews that weren't too stellar but we have never had issues, even with a group that kept getting larger. The seating arrangements can't handle very large groups, so expect to sit at tables nearby for groups larger than 8.“

“I’d absolutely recommend this place to any blue-collar family man. I’m raising a family of seven, and getting everyone out of the house without breaking the bank is no small task. Most outings easily push past $100—but not here. When they’re running specials, we can order what we want, eat like kings, and forget our worries for a while. For the value you get, it’s hard to find anywhere better that still treats you like family.“

“Good service Good proportions Friendly staff“

“Dinner and karaoke with someone I love. The company was delightful, the food delicious, the staff top-notch, and the karaoke was fun.“

“The food has always been quite good. The waitress is especially nice, plus we love the cute robot that delivers the food!!!!“

“Rock & Brews nails the atmosphere — it’s amazing from the moment you walk in, with a vibe that makes it easy to relax and unwind. It’s the perfect place to blow off some steam after a hard day’s work; the energy hits that sweet spot between lively and laid-back.

The brews are always ice cold, exactly how they should be, and the food is top-notch, matching the quality of the drinks. I also love how the owner decorated the place — you can tell there was real thought and personality put into the space, giving it character you don’t find at typical bar-and-grill spots.

If you’re looking for great food, cold drinks, and a spot with real personality, Rock & Brews is the move“

“food was excellent and pricing excellent. Thank you Autumn“

“When we walked in everything was so clean I thought they were shutting down the day but the grill was hot because they made us a delicious double cheeseburger to-order and the fries were fresh and crispy on the outside, soft inside! Excellent service! A nice surprise to find in a gas station“

“Good, fresh and good beef taste, smash fries with rosemary & some kind of oil are the real star of the show. About the same price as 5 guys or killer. The service however leaves a LOT to be desired.“
