27 Best American Restaurants in Hendersonville

“Great food! Cannot stop thinking about meatloaf, green beans! Everything was perfect!“

“We went somewhere else for breakfast this morning and regretted it! If we get breakfast it's almost always either Red Rooster or Waffle House. Never going anywhere else again! The Roo has never disappointed. They're quick, delicious, very fairly priced! The servers are on top of it! I even had a rough morning getting my 4 year old in the door and a server opened her arms and he jumped right in them, giving her a big hug. Totally changed his mood around. We love Red Rooster. 🥰“

“The food here is amazing, but my favorite is the chicken Alfredo. It is awesome. Friendly and professional staff and awesome management would recommend this place.“

“I stopped by last night after seeing the new Thor. The lady at the window was by far one of the nicest drive thru attendant. I said to the gentleman that brought my food out, to tell his manager that I said she was one of the friendliest night shift workers I've ever came across. Bless her heart for working with all teenagers. 🥰“

“My family and I enjoyed a great lunch today! The food was delicious and the menu is large with many choices. My husband got the catfish and said it was delicious and the hush puppies were the best he has ever eaten! My son got a full rack of ribs and they fell off the bone! I had the smash burger and it was great, we can’t wait to go back and try the BBQ!“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Demos’ in Hendersonville for the first time, and from the moment we sat down, I knew we were in for a great experience. Our server, Phoenix, was clearly new and a bit nervous at first, but let me tell you—he absolutely knocked it out of the park. Having owned my own restaurant in the past, I know what makes a great server, and if I could have hired five more of this guy, I would have in a heartbeat. He understood the assignment and executed it flawlessly. His attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine effort to make our dining experience top-notch were beyond impressive. As for the food—Demos’ lived up to its reputation. The menu had a great selection, and everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a casual yet quality meal. If you’re in the Hendersonville area and looking for great food paired with exceptional service, ask for Phoenix at Demos’—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Delicious lunch, excellent waitress and other staff!♥️“

“Fabulous ribs and very welcoming!“

“Went to Hendersonville Tn Captain D’s tonight. There were three people working when there should have been four. The girls were very busy. We were eating in. They explained that we might have to wait a little longer since they were understaffed. We said that was fine. They couldn’t have been nicer. Our food came out perfect and was very good. Unfortunately, we only got Tanya and Melissa’s names and not the person who was in the kitchen. They did a great job in spite of being super busy and understaffed. They’re the best.“

“I was not disappointed by my latest visit to Cheddars. We got there after 9pm so we were able to get seated at the bar immediately on a Friday night. The bartender was very attentive and I particularly enjoy going to Cheddars because of the big aquarium. It was a great meal.“

“We eat there a couple of times a month for lunch. Alexis is the waitress and she is so efficient. She is the only waitress but can take care of all the tables. The food is always good and the service is excellent. I’m not sure how she does it alone but she pulls it off. So kind and efficient. She needs a raise. Such an asset to the company.“

“We ate inside and one of the young ladies working, Paulie, was constantly checking on tables to make sure everything was good. When she wasn’t checking on customers, she was cleaning. Great to see a young person with that level of customer service!“
