18 Best American Restaurants in Bensalem

“My dining experience at the newly renovated Friday’s in Bensalem Pennsylvania was outstanding. My food: the center cut sirloin, mashed potatoes and broccoli were sensational. This meal made me want to continue eating it even after my stomach was full. My guest’s food: the fried shrimp, French fries and coleslaw was reported as delicious. Everything was cooked as requested and seasoned well. Our server Pauline was attentive, and she did not wait for me and my guest to ask for what we wanted. She acted on her own initiative to get us what we needed. A warm welcome was received by the Manager Michelle who made us feel like valued customers. Dining at Friday’s made me feel great.“

“Everything was absolutely amazing. Our server was Deb she was absolutely wonderful. Gerald the manager was fantastic as well. He was walking around checking on all the tables making sure everything came out right. The food was delicious, the service was great.

“A really awesome diner probably the best I have ever been to!!! Everyone was very pleasant and happy especially Denise G who was our server!!! She was very nice and made our experience there even better, she was very friendly and the food was the best I ever had!!! Definitely gonna be back there again!!!“

“Our pick-up order included the BLT Salad, which is a new menu item. It was exactly the best of what you would expect - crisp lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and perfectly-cooked bacon strips cut into nicely-sized short sections (so much better than the bacon bits I feared I'd get). I had it with the ranch dressing, and it was just perfection. Highly recommend - don't miss out on this! Also super-friendly, cordial service team - A+“

“Dom’s is the best seafood in the area! The food is delicious and very reasonably priced. All of the food is great! My favorite is the broiled shrimp .“

“Had a great meal! We loved our waitress. She corrected our items that we disliked (spicy chicken bites) We brought such an appetite that most was not pictured lol!

Great bread!

The Raspberry Lemonade & Peach tea were so good!

The spicy chicken bites as an app we disliked but loved the firecracker chicken wraps!

There is plenty of parking!“

“Best Philly cheese around and try the garlic cheese pizza!“

“UNO’s is a good place, the food is good, and the staff is better! The service is second to none!!! We are there usually weekly,“

“First time at a Golden Corral. I have to say it was good. I didn't know what to expect but the process was simple. We came for lunch and we explained we had never been there so the woman up front said lunch was being served. She asked if we wanted to order steaks as lunch doesn't have AYCE steak so we did. Very affordable. We also ordered our drinks as well ahead of time as we were told we would get a server which was unexpected.

Cost was $50 for 2 adults even though my son was with me, he is 13, and that's an adult price but only a $1 or so more than kid pricing. This includes the 2 steaks (cooked medium) and 2 drinks (lemonade). We were sat immediately and waited for our server. We explained we were 1st timers and she gave us the rundown. Very helpful. She said she would be back with our drinks and get our steaks cooked to order. We went up the the buffet and checked out the offerings.

He was happy to find mac and cheese, French Fries, cheeseburgers and hotdogs while I was happy to find pork, chicken, steamed broccoli, meatloaf and mashed potatoes. I was skeptical about the broccoli but it was fresh and delicious the meatloaf was flavorful but I wish it was a little more dense to hold it's shape but good anyways. The mashed potatoes were well seasoned and very delicious. I was again surprised. The 2nd trip up we looked around more and saw everything that they had to offer. I wish I tried the chili but I grabbed some roasted chicken, zucchini and pot roast with veggies. Again everything was well seasoned.

The waitress came over with our steaks just as we sat down. I will say my son's steak was cooked perfectly medium. Mine on the other hand was definitely well done. It still was tender just overcooked for my preference. I did not complain or send back as that's just not my style. I tried the steak with the golden corral branded steak sauce and was happy thay the sauce was similar to A1 which is a plus in my book. The steak didn't need the sauce but it was a welcome addition. After this plate we were getting full so desert was on the menu. Both hand scooped and soft serve are available. The hand scooped you need to ask for assistance. My son really like it and the soft serve was good as well.

My overall thought are the steaks need to be cooked at the temperature ordered. Offer other pasta options. There was 1 baked ziti option that I saw and 2 rice options. Having other pasta options would be great especially since they had bourbon chicken which could have paired with a lo mein noodle instead of white rice. Having a mixed veggie option instead or in addition to the broccoli would be appreciated. I would also liked to have seen an option for serve your own fountain drinks. That was unusual in my opinion to have to have a server bring that when you self serve yourself everything else. Also the tipping is weird for the server. I paid first and ate after but on the receipt it shows tip amounts. I paid with a debit card however if I wanted to leave a tip it seemed like I would need to leave cash, which I did however it would be nice to have another option and I wasn't sure how to do that after eating.

We will be back to try breakfast on the weekends or dinner as we enjoyed the overall experience and value.“

“Bar was packed on a Saturday night. They had a band that started late, which went into the DJ time. There was a certain crowd for the band, and then it switched to the crowd for the DJ. DJ played hip-hop. The food was ok. Service was extremely slow, but they were short-handed. Staff seemed pretty nice except being overwhelmed. I'm not sure if it's like that all the time as it was the Saturday before Halloween and was touted to be a Halloween Party.“

“After the Common show Friday March 15th, we decided to grab a bite at Chickie & Pete's. Unfortunately after that our #GirlsTrip went into a spiral. SOMEHOW a little over an hour after the server "MAGGIE" took possession of her Visa debit card, said card was used to make 2 online casino gambling transactions. The next day when the fraudulent transactions were discovered the 1st for $200, the 2nd for $100, she contacted her bank & they canceled her card. A major inconvenience especially when you use your card for automatic bill paying. I immediately contacted the Parx casino call center for information & I also placed a call to Chickie & Pete's. The casino told us to come in & file a report with security. I received a call back almost immediately from C&P's Asst. Gen Manager "Sue" & was told she'd look into it. When we arrived back to the casino, security refered her to the Bensalem, Pa PD & she made a criminal report with them. AGM Sue, a very dismissive & unapologetic woman, said she reviewed the camera footage and found no wrongdoing on her employee's part...case closed!! When I asked her if the card had ever left Maggie's hands, she snapped "I will NOT be interrogated by YOU"!! but did eventually confirm that NO ONE other than Maggie had had possession of the card. She then asked if my friend was sure she didn't make the transactions herself or give her card to someone or perhaps lose it? The problem with these half hearted attempts at dismissing us was #1....her card went immediately back into her wallet after Maggie returned it to her so no it was not lost, stolen or given to anyone. And #2... unlike myself, my friend is not a gambler & even if she were, why in the world would she be in an actual casino (which is where we remained after eating) when the theft was committed & use an online casino/gambling app? So NO, none of those scenarios makes much sense but I guess she had to come up with ANYTHING that might dispel responsibility away from herself, Maggie & C&Ps. OR perhaps Sue is just purposely naïve of how easy it is to obtain the CC#, CVV code & EXP date from a patrons card using perhaps a cell phone's camera to capture such info for later use. The fact that someone is careful enough to not get caught on camera committing the act, is just a testament to how good they've become at doing it. So if you decide to patronize this establishment, THINK TWICE before using your credit card and especially think twice before using your debit card!!“

“my husband and I go here frequently. The food is always so good. we always leave full ( and often with doggie bags) due to their large portions.. and I can't say enough about the service. I've been there for breakfast, lunch and dinner,and have always received pleasant and quick service. I would definitely recommend this diner 😊“

“Love this place...great take out food and awesome people.“
