50 Best American Restaurants near Garnet Valley

“Just stopped and got the buffalo shrimp taco and it was EPIC!!! Dave and staff are really great and the atmosphere is spot on. If your near booths corner check them out, also does catering as well.“

“Everything is so good and fresh! The dinner rolls are out of this world. So far we had the chicken pot pie, turkey, meatloaf and strawberry pie! Their sides are so delicious too especially the macaroni and potato salads! Thanks Rebecca for the affordable tasty food you bring to this area!“

“TY for accommodating our party of 18 on a Saturday… Your fried calamari was so yummy, the flight of soup was a brilliant idea for someone who’s undecisive to be able to sample 3 different cups, my crab cake was so amazing - I’m drooling just thinking about the jumbo lumps of crab chunks!!! By the way hubby & I noticed the American Psycho decors right away as we’re huge fans of the book & movie. Last but def not least, the service was great even though there were 18 of us with some loud kiddos.“

“Had my first Roots experience today! The cafe is beautiful, staff is fantastic, and the food is incredible! Cannot wait to go back❤️“

“I went to Applebees tonight and had a wonderful experience. Jesse Z was the main reason we had a wonderful time. Jesse Z was super prompt and got to us very quickly and was able to make some adjustments to our order after the fact. I really appreciated that! Overall great service!“

“the food was really good (brisket sandwich) and plentiful. staff was great. only complaint is that it is expensive and the facility echos.“

“Fantastic place. The food was delicious w/ every bite. Staff were so friendly and caring. Everything I ate/enjoyed I savored and it left me wanting another plate, but I left so filled and pleased with the whole experience. Can't wait to return!“

“ALWAYS get a delicious sandwich“

“It was really good! I LOVE a good Cheese Plate, and I got a Great cheese plate! I also got the Foie Gras Burger. I hadn't had foie gras before, so I thought it was pretty cool that I could try it at a place that wasn't a high-end French restaurant. It was pretty good! I enjoyed all of the food there. The waitstaff was awesome. Really nice atmosphere as well. Would Definitely go again. Kinda want to go now...but it's 7:30am 🤣“

“Amazing! My favorite breakfast place in the world!“

“😍Tucked just off the road like a well-kept secret, Snuff Mill Steakhouse & Butchery is a revelation—a celebration of fine dining wrapped in the warmth of a neighborhood favorite. Step inside, and you’re greeted by a cozy, intimate interior that feels both polished and personal. High tables, rich wood tones, and a welcoming bar set the tone. And just to the left of the entrance, a gleaming meat case—like a culinary altar—builds anticipation with its marble-cut promise of things to come. Whimsy lives here too, from the surprise artworks to the playful presence of pigs in unexpected places (don’t miss the one keeping watch near the door). The wine list? Impeccably curated, with a focus on hand-selected bottles that beg to be explored. Cocktails are more than drinks—they’re small works of art, mixed with precision by bartenders who clearly care. Then there’s Bill Irvin—proprietor, oyster whisperer, and front-of-house magician. A certified oyster expert, Bill pairs briny beauties with grace and authority. The chef and kitchen brigade bring French-influenced finesse to every plate, sourcing only the finest local ingredients. The results? Steaks seared to sublime, seafood that sings, and appetizers that linger on the palate like a good memory. The in-house pastry chef seals the deal—so save room. The desserts are nothing short of transportive. Snuff Mill is more than a meal; it’s a destination. Guests travel from near and far, and once you’ve experienced it, you’ll understand why.“

“Wonderful food, highly recommend the grilled shrimp and the jerk egg rolls. Enjoyed the lobster Mac n cheese too! Old fashion drink was really good!“

“Our Thanksgiving dinner was spectacular thanks to the feast served up by CST. Thank you Debbie, our family and guests could not stop raving about the food! The gravies, sweet and smashed potatoes, veggies, stuffing, Turkey, Prime rib, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin cheese cake....delicious! Blake wants more candied sweets.“

“We love this place and everything about it, the food, the service, the atmosphere is laid back, no rush, no hard sell on the crème brûlée.“

“Mike provided our group an excellent customer service …“

“Fun environment, nice crowd“

“So good!! Small menu but it’s done perfectly!“

“such a great place! staff is great food is excellent- great pricing and portions! seating is limited but you can call for a reservation. I've ordered takeout which is just as good as eating in(which is super hard to do) & held private events there!“

“I have been a customer for a very long time they have a sign it's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice, the sign is what made me a repeat customer 🙂“

“First time today. We'll be back.“

“I’ve always loved Columbus Inn throughout the years and highly recommend it for quality fine dining and a quaint enjoyable atmosphere. And the front deck is an amazing spot all year round.“

“Meghan’s was busy when we arrived. Breakfast was brought out to us in minutes after placing our order. Waitress very pleasant and fast. Bacon 🥓, sausage, coffee and eggs were good. Personally I can make way better French toast. Highly recommend Meghan’s. We will definitely be back.“

“Dear God, Andiario. Quirky wine list, honest hospitality, genuinely cared for produce. What the hell else could you ask for? So blindsided that I’d dare say that this is the best dinner I’ve ever had. And yet, a layman can still enjoy it— if you can steal a reservation. Michelin Guide was built on places like this.“

“Maybe if we had been drinking alcohol, & lots of it, we would've received better service?
Food was wonderfully delicious and arrived sooner than expected. Many kudos to the back of the house. Front of house ghosted us. But, then good service is an ancient myth these days. And then they want a 20% tip? What a joke.“

“Amazing for individuals with celiac and just anyone! My daughter can eat here with no problem. So many yummy options. We love that we don’t have to worry about cross contamination. Highly recommended!“

“The Halal Cheesesteak Nachos? Unreal. Perfectly seasoned meat, crispy nachos, and melty cheese in every bite. It’s bold, flavorful, and seriously addictive.

The place has good vibes, generous portions, and you can taste the care in every order. If you're anywhere near Chester, make the trip. You won’t regret it.“

“An eclectic, fun atmosphere with delicious food!“

“Food and drinks were great - pub burger was excellent - and we really enjoyed the acoustic live music atmosphere!“

“our waitress Shannon at the Metro Wilmington DE location was AMAZING! Great food, eggs, grits and pancakes are super yummy. Highly reccomend!!!“

“Drove by Springfield Ale House a bunch of times before ever going in. We have been there twice in the last few weeks and I could kick myself for waiting so long to go in. Can’t wait to go back. Good selection of beers on tap and some excellent cocktails as well as a great food menu.“

“Waited 40 minutes for hush puppies while the restaurant was nearly empty at 3pm. Primary food order came 5 minutes later and my son’s order was wrong. It’s a shame because the food is good. But the service has been so slow both times I’ve been here. They did comp his meal. Just expect to wait a while and enjoy your drinks. Don’t come if you’re in a hurry.“

“Tasty perfectly prepared food, Awesome service, Friendly owners. If you are in the Aston Pa area, I would highly recommend them.“

“I ordered lunch for my family, for take out. One item was loaded potato puffs. They came with a very small drizzle of sour cream and a few small pieces of bacon. most were dry and plain. Very frustrating as this was my husbands only food he ordered and will be eating 😔“

“This was our first time ordering from LaSpada's in Glen Mills. It was Superbowl Sunday so they were busy but the quality of the cheesesteaks and Old-fashioned Italian hoagie was spot on. The beef was flavorful and cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of cheese on the sandwich. The hoagie had quality meats and was more than enough for a meal. Given that we ordered on Superbowl Sunday, we were given a specific pickup time and our sandwiches were hot and ready upon arrival. The call taker was pleasant and the counter staff was welcoming, despite it being a hectic day for them. We will be ordering for LaSpada's Glen Mills again!“

“Recently had dinner here on a Friday evening, we were seated immediately, without reservations, in the bar area. Service was quick, food was good! A little loud , but we were in the bar area. There was a group of about 12 people nearby. My only complaint is charging $16. for a glass of sangria? Really? It's mostly ice and fruit. I almost fell out of the booth when i saw that! Just a buyer beware. Overall good experience, great food!“

“We have been to all of the other Bardea offerings in the area so we were excited to try out Roost! We were not disappointed. Located on Market Street in Wilmington, Roost is an upscale pub and bar. The menu is typical pub food fare but with an upscale twist. We were seated immediately upon entering. Our server Ashley was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable. She Handled our food sensitivities easily, made great recommendations for both drinks and food, and could explain any dish in depth. The food was delectable! We had the deviled eggs which arrived in a nest made out of dough, a burger, a Reuben, and dessert. If you are a craft beer person they have an excellent draft menu. Overall it was a fantastic experience and we look forward to returning.“

“In town visiting my Bestie and we came and had brunch. We ate outside. The atmosphere was great, and our server was also great. The food came out in a timely fashion. I had the fresh berry French toast with scrambled eggs and chicken sausage. Everything tasted delicious..“

“Baylie was a rockstar waitress. My wife and I don’t come to Applebees often, but her service made us want to start coming back way more. She was super polite, friendly, timely, and accurate with taking orders. She deserves some recognition. Some would say “don’t reward someone for doing what is expected of their job”… but she did everything 110% of the way and it meant a lot to us. Thanks, Baylie!“

“Awesome dessert , we love it , the foood and the people were so awesome“

“Met a friend for dinner last night and everything was absolutely delicious. The salmon sliders were divine 😍, I would definitely order those 100 times. Thanks for a great dinner!“

“I absolutely love the charcoal pit. Been a customer since I was a kid. But what is up with the new French fries?? The fries that you always had before were way better and perfect rather than these new godaweful things. Please change back to the original ones. These SUCK 🤢🤮🤬😡“

“I’d give this 10 stars if I could! Absolutely delicious! We ordered delivery from Grubhub and the food came hot fresh and so so yummy! Huge portions - lasted us multiple meals. Highly recommend the hot mess fries! Do not sleep on this place!“

“visited 214 on a whim for a quick Friday night out with a friend. Our server Brendon apologized for the delay in getting to our table, explaining that it had been a wild night and they were slightly understaffed (understandable, it was Valentine's Day). After that, though, he was attentive and friendly for the entire meal. The winter salad I ordered was enormous and although it could have used more dressing, it was still enjoyable. My friend's burger came with a generous portion of fries and was phenomenal. For drinks, I opted for their "dealer's choice" option that lets you roll three dice to create a unique off-menu cocktail. It was dangerously tasty and a generous pour. After dinner, we moved to the bar and chatted with the bar manager Jeremy, who was not only also incredibly friendly and great conversation, but knew his way around the bar and came up with another bespoke cocktail when they were out of an ingredient for the drink I originally wanted. Overall, a fantastic experience across the board and definitely my new favorite spot in Media.“

“Great food and excellent service!“

“Very nice and friendly owner and staff. Food always delicious 😋 Very clean cozy environment 👌“

“good food and good service“

“Omg! Ralissa is amazing. I called and had an issue with my door dash that charged me to deliver a drink when for some reason all the food got deleted off of the order. They gave me the run around about it and it took forever to even consider them getting a refund. They wouldn't refund me for an accidental 10 dollar drink. But I called and Ralissa asked her higher ups worked her magic and gave me the refund when she cancelled it on her end. I attempted to order through the door dash/Uber site again and this time the food went through. Well guess what was waiting for me in the bag not only did she put the drink that she comp for my hassle but she wrote a note to me that she wanted me to have the drink. It made me feel so special. I called her back and thanked her. I made sure to write this review about her because she really went above and beyond. I pray many blessings on her life and that she never lose that extra light she has!“

“We had my wife and her twin sister’s birthday party there with over 70 people. The event was well organized and the staff was friendly and accommodating. They were patient with our younger guests. Everyone said they had a great time. Thank You to Barnaby’s for a great job!!“

“Wonderful trip to Greenville, great vibe and atmosphere!“

“Nice place! Felt very homely and welcoming. It's a bit out of the way but a friend took me there to try after he was impressed by it. I had the chipped beef on toast and it hit the spot. I also had a side of scrapple. Most places don't cook scrapple correctly but Libby's did a fine job with it, and that's coming from a guy that lives in scrapple territory! I will say that the potatoes needed salt, but I'd rather have to add salt than deal with having too much salt. The coffee was decent as well.

Oh yeah, talk about affordable! This is how breakfast should be priced!

Kid-friendliness: While I was walking out, two little kids in strollers were smiling and waving bye to us. The staff were having fun with them too. It was adorable so I'd say they're pretty kid friendly.“
