31 Best American Restaurants in Wilkes Barre

“We had a great dinner experience at Rustic Kitchen with a group of six friends. They accommodated us perfectly with a table for six, and the service was outstanding from start to finish. Our seasoned waiter was training a younger waitress, and both of them did an excellent job. The young man helping with cleanup and table service was also very attentive and hardworking.

Everyone was constantly checking on us, making sure we had everything we needed and asking if we were satisfied with our meals and drinks. The food was excellent across the board. Our group ordered everything from the half roast chicken to the orecchiette pasta and chicken parmesan, and every meal was delicious.

The portion sizes were very generous, and the pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the amount of food and drinks we had. Overall, it was a great night with excellent food, attentive staff, and a very enjoyable atmosphere. We will definitely be back.“

“Was the best date night ever, amazing food and Ambience. Can’t wait to come back and bring my Parents to enjoy the rich tasty food. Oh and the dessert is heaven on earth. This is just like a high end NYC restaurant just for half price.“

“☺Tried the chicken and rice which was their Monday special and it was delicious. I know I will definitely have it again!“

“Hope is the best & always knowledgeable“

“Popped in the Wilkes-Barre, PA TGI Fridays for lunch. Great, fast, friendly service. The sampler platter was delicious.“

“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.“

“Great service, fantastic food!“

“Previously had a bad experience with a takeout order. The restaurant reached out and gave us a coupon to use for our next experience. We sat down in the restaurant today and it completely made up for last time. Anissa was so wonderfully kind and exceptional- she kept track of our dinner so we did not run over our limit, was happy to chat, and made sure our drinks were always full (and an extra lemon was happily given.)
The manager Jason P. made it a point to check in not once but twice to make sure our food and service was up to OUR standards.
This exceptional service is why we keep coming back- everyone is entitled to a bad day, but Jason P. and Anissa made sure we did not leave without full bellies and a smile. Can't wait to see you again!“

“We had excellent dinners tonight at Cork! There are so many options to chose from on the menu. There's definitely something for everyone! My dinner came with sweet mashed potatoes and they were amazing! Our waiter Justin was also very attentive along with the rest of the staff. :)“

“I got my usual Sunday morning takeout shortly after 10am on 9/14. I could tell as soon as I looked at my meal that it was skillfully prepared by someone who cared. I had the Eggs Benedict from the senior menu, and it was done to perfection. I enjoyed every bite. Kudos to the chef on duty. I appreciate and acknowledge your effort. The staff is friendly and knows me by name, making me feel special. 5 stars to you all!“

“Found this place a few months back when my daughter had a softball game up that way, and I was looking for a place to watch the Eagles on Sunday. This place did not disappoint for watching any Eagles game. It’s truly like a full eagle bar with the atmosphere of all the fans. Love the place went back a second time a week ago.“

“I was at Millers in W-B on 4/27, which was also the night of a concert up the street. It was packed. The staff at the front door were SO NICE! We waited at least 30 min at the bar with no eye contact from either bartender. Then, a man who was I’m assuming a server jumped back and served us. We were so thankful and he was also, SO NICE!!!! We sat at the bar for one hour until our table was ready. I used to bartend, so I get it that you can be busy, but at least acknowledge the customers. I also observed arguing between staff and then apologies. I’m assuming, bc it was busy and the main bar tender was stressed, but take that behind the scenes. When we finally got to our table we had Zachary as our server who was PHENOMENAL!!!!! He knew we had a show to get to. He was attentive, friendly, funny and the BEST! I would probably go back, bc the French dip was delicious, but not on a busy night.“

“I want to thank the manager, Joe and all of his staff for making our get-together at Isabella’s perfect!! From the ambience, the food and the staff, it was wonderful.
I would highly recommend this restaurant for a night out or for a group gathering. It was 5 Star all around!
Thank you again, Joe and the entire staff taking care of our group tonight!!“
