24 Best American Restaurants in Allentown

“Great food! Friendly employees! Cozy and clean atmosphere! Our favorite restaurant in a long time!“

“Excellent food, always fresh and tasty. Customer service is on point, Wafa and her staff are wonderful. I love the shawarma, gyro, and of course their smoothies.“

“We chose Morgan’s for our son’s rehearsal dinner. I worked with Patty for the planning over the past few months and everything was perfect and as promised. We were able to come in a bit early to decorate the tables to go with the wedding theme. Service was superb, everything at a good pace, did not feel rushed. We had a group of 26 and staff was absolutely amazing. At several times during the evening, our guests thanked us for the beautiful evening. I am so glad our son and future daughter-in-law had a night to remember. If I had to redo the evening, I would not change a thing.“

“I have been staying at the Hyatt since it opened several years ago and dining at the Westside Grill on every stay. I frequent this hotel and am more than just a guest, bordering on being a resident due to my frequent travel into the Lehigh Valley. As a Globalist with Hyatt I cannot say enough good about the hotel and the Westside Grill. After having dinner there again this evening and having another outstanding experience I feel compelled to write this review. The dining room management of the Westside Grill is exceptional with Eileen, the Manager, doing an exceptional job. She is a walk around manager very visible in the dining room, greeting customers, and ensuring they are having a great dining experience. This evening I had the pleasure of having Deanna as my server and she did an outstanding job as well. Both Eileen and Deanna are very attentive insuring that the customer is well taken care of and not wanting for anything. I cannot say enough GOOD about this restaurant. It is top shelf, great abidance, exceptionally clean, supported by a full service bar and an exceptional menu and wine list. The Westside Grill has been consistent in service, quality, and presentation of food since I began dining there while staying at the hotel. I strongly recommend the Westside Grill for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for an exceptional dining experience. I bring often business associates with me for morning, afternoon, and evening business discussions at the Westside Grill and have never been disappointed. Both the Westside Grill and Hyatt Hotel have a great staff that are always wanting to make your dining experience and stay exceptional and memorable. It makes you want to come back!!! Finally, 5 Stars is not enough, it should be more like 10. Both the service and the meals at the Westside Grill are consistent always providing an exceptional dining experience.“

“The environment is top notch, food was excellent, and we had the most incredible, friendly, personable waitress!!! She made us feel at home, the service was incredible!!! I am 68 years old and I have gone to many restaurants in my life all around the country, but our waitress, Jacellah, went above and beyond, she was the most attentive and friendliest waitress that I have ever met in my life, which made the total experience something I will never forget! The total experience was the absolute best!!!“

“Bredjet and the rest of the staff are amazing. Food is great and everyone is friendly. Highly recommend“

“I so wish that I had asked for names - but this place is phenomenal! We came in last Tuesday and Wednesday for breaks from Dorney. We were in from Virginia. Tuesday we sat at a booth up at the bar and the whole experience totally rocked. I had a family member with a gluten sensitivity and the park had little to offer, so we came to BJs. Service was great, food was fantastic, end to end just a great time. Wednesday we sat out in the dining area and had a different server, and he was incredible. Super attentive, all over everything we needed, top notch all the way - and then… Yall blessed my bourbon loving heart. I glanced across the bar and saw pretty common whisky selections. I ordered a water. It was hot anyway. But then I caught the label of a bottle of Booker’s… the price per pour was so good I asked 3 times to verify. When your bartender told me people don’t often order bourbon like that in there, my next question was “where is the closest liquor store?” Because I knew I’d get lucky. Bingo. Two bottles of Bookers on the shelf at Cedar Crest. ECBP, and a handful of other solid bottles not commonly seen in my state outside allocated drops. So bourbon fans - get you a healthy pour of Booker’s at a killer price at BJs, order the Prime Rib dip sandwich because it’s crazy good, and then go see what’s on the shelf nearby afterwards.“

“Wonderfully developed and unique flavors. Cheesesteak soup is the bomb“

“My husband and I visit this location quite frequently. The food and drinks are always good, and the servers (especially Amaryllis, Jackie, and Jess) are always friendly, fun, kind, and accommodating. If you like Applebee's, this is the location you definitely want to visit!“

“I don’t write reviews very often , but I went here last week and everything was awesome. I couldn’t believe the place was empty. The food and service was amazing. We also got a chance to try the games. My wife and daughter loved it. If u don’t go here you are missing out.“

“Great food. Was not disappointed with the avgolemono soup. I got a cup. I could have eaten a bowl. Waitress was very nice as well!“

“fun easy atmosphere with karaoke and some good eats.“

“I have an allergy to rare beef. As a result I usually do not order red meat as I prefer it rare. Wert’s Cafe burgers are so good, moist and juicy, even when cooked well done. Delicious and very reasonably priced food. You can’t go wrong! Wert’s is the Best!“

“What a great place to host a private surprise birthday party ! We had such a special time here today. The staff is the best!! 5 stars !! I would highly recommend for all your special events. Great food, plenty of off street parking and wonderful atmosphere !! We will be back.“

“Amazing service and great vibe!“

“Will not being going back after my husband and I recent visit. After being seated and waiting more than 15 minutes to be waited on while a waitress walked by us twice ignoring us and two other couples came and were seated near us and were waited on right away, we walked out! No one said a word. Another turn off, there obsessed with vacuuming and sweeping the floor. Yes l like a clean restaurant but not vacuuming or sweeping done by our table while were trying to have a peaceful meal and dust blowing around in the air. Wont be going back.“
