50 Best American Restaurants near Old Forge

“Excellent food, great service and always pleasant!“

“We visited Augustine's with a large group of 20 people and were incredibly impressed with the level of service we received. Despite the size of our party, our single waitress handled everything with remarkable efficiency and professionalism. She managed all our drink and food orders promptly, and every item arrived hot, fresh, and perfectly prepared.

We ordered a variety of appetizers, entrees, pizzas, drinks, and desserts, and everything was served in well-timed stages. No one waited too long, and the quality of the food was outstanding—every dish was delicious. Not a single person in our group left hungry or disappointed.

We highly recommend Augustine's and will absolutely return the next time we're in town.“

Thursday is steak night at Dooley's and they were fabulous. Had a filet (med rare, of course), baked potato and Broccoli. Drink special was a Vanilla cosmo. Also tried a Cheesecake “

“I got 2 trays of red pizza with anchovies & the pizza was Absolutely Scrumptious. Pizza was phenomenal. Loved it! Everything was perfect even though I ordered out. Order was ready when I got there & just the smell, I couldn't wait to get home to have a piece. Sheer Perfection.“

“BIG SURPRISE how good this place was. It's similar to the Seasons 52 concept (including the individual mini desserts in small glasses). Fresh and seasonal menu items, nearly all of which are heart healthy choices but still very good. We were a large party and our server, Lexi, was fantastic. Friendly and efficient. Reasonable prices. Nice atmosphere. Elevated casual. Definitely the best restaurant experience we had in Moosic. Highly recommend.“

“Great Food And Atmosphere“

“I have many special memories here with family. The best memory was in July during a holiday celebration. I brought my boyfriend Abdullah to meet my family and it was one of the most special memories that I cherish deeply. Most recently when I came, I saw many peers from high school who may or may not have noticed me. Most distinctively, I saw a former athlete. This colleague used to be one of the best North Pocono football players as well as North Pocono track & field athletes who had his year book picture iconically taken on the railroad tracks. I would highly recommend coming here if you want to see North Pocono School District legends as well as have amazing food.“

“Update to my past review:
Even better place since they stopped allowing smokers. Excellent food; great, huge variety on the menu!
Great wait staff. I always bring my friends for breakfast Saturday and it never disappoints! Coffee is great and free flowing. They get busy right about 10:00AM but the waitresses keep up quite efficiently. Love the veggie omelette!“

My husband and I chose it for our anniversary dinner, and from the moment we stepped inside, the wait staff provided top-notch service, making us feel genuinely welcome. The food was delicious, and those legendary Stirna's brownies are always a must for a sweet treat. Much thanks to Cathy and her team.“

Michelle and Lauren made sure everything ran smoothly! Thank you all on a job well done! I highly recommend the Apple Tree House Restaurant!“

“Rustic Kitchen is hands down one of the best dining experiences at Mohegan Sun. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between cozy and upscale — warm lighting, inviting décor, and an energy that makes you feel welcome right away.

The food is outstanding. Every dish we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The pasta was cooked perfectly, the seafood was fresh, and the steak was absolutely spot-on. You can tell the chefs take real pride in what they serve.

Service was exceptional from start to finish. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, offered great recommendations, and made sure we felt taken care of the entire evening.

Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner, a night out with friends, or a pre-casino meal, Rustic Kitchen delivers every time. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!“

“This is the best place for homemade food at amazing prices. The owner cooks all orders fresh and used fresh ingredients and overall I can't wait to go to Scranton to just eat here. Again I can't say this enough that the food is absolutely amazing. Jim and Judy are amazing people who still bring high quality service and food to your table!!!“

“We went to the pub while stay at the hotel since it was close by. The food was AMAZING. Service was fantastic! Our server, Tiffany, was very attentive and kind. Made sure we had everything we needed during our entire dining experience. The prices are not bad either! Definitely would return again when in the area!“

“A huge thank you to Donna and her staff for another great event for us! This is the third time we’ve used Center City Cafe to cater a party and she did another amazing job. Everyone raved about the “build your own taco bar.” My favorite part was that Donna came to set up for us (every time), which took so much pressure off of us the morning of our event so we could concentrate on other things.“

“Hands down one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The staff were absolutely fantastic and the food was phenomenal!“

“A staple in the northeastern Pennsylvania cuisine scene.
White tablecloth fine dining, menu excellent , genuinely welcoming.. they have a cozy little bar for a table for two on a busy night. Staff is wonderful, truly great service and I believe there is a gentleman that opens the door for the guests ( at least that's what my mom told me ). Also I'd like to know that they chose to put those tablecloth mats on each table, so your plates don't ping off the tabletop, things sit nice, comfy on the elbows.. As a dweeb, I take notice of those extra touches.. just sayin'
Delicious traditional dishes, but with a real touch of genuine.
They put craft and dedication to cooking these traditional dishes.
The staff is one of the finest in the area, service was outstanding I would say make sure to order the special. Even though you might not know what it is, you can trust that this kitchen will deliver an amazing plate.
Recently I went there with my parents, and they reminded me to wear something nice and make sure I don't have any holes in my jeans.. haha!
That's the kind of place this is in a great way.
Isabella has been doing it great for I would say almost 20 years one of my best friends used to cook their way back when and was always regarded as a very great kitchen in the area.
Always a great choice.
Thank you very much Isabella I will see you again! See you around!

“We have come here many times. Every time it has been great. I'd like to call out Kyanna for being our server and bartender more than once. Great service to great conversations, if you have her as the bartender or the server then you're in good hands!“
