48 Best American Restaurants near Donna

“Just moved to the area and as I was driving around, I ran into this neat little café. Right away, it caught my attention, so I decided to come in and see what they had to offer. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly. It feels so cozy and reminds me of going to my grandmother's house on Sundays. Being here, we decided to try out their panchos, and I must say, wow, just so tasty! I highly recommend this little café and everything they have to offer.“

“Great food and service!! Hamburgers, fries, and onion rings are so delicious. Highly recommend this place!!“

“Friendliness and respect is not common among most diners, yet here at Dennys San Juan, Texas of The Rio Grande Valley Of Southern Texas it’s very much included! What’s the best way to start,A meal? I would say is to be included and made felt like family! That’s what you Shure would find- here at Denny’s, along with a hot, ready,made meal just the way you order!“

“Sidebar is our go to restaurant for fine dining. Amazing food, the best drinks, delicious food, and wonderful waitstaff. Our favorite anniversary spot.“

“Kayla D. and Andrea were great! Very helpful when it came to mixed drinks. Definitely coming back 😊“

“Very nice place for some dinning with family.“

“Staff is always friendly and attentive.. prices are great along with the food. Great environment and music especially when live bands are here. Not to mention clean restrooms which is rare in the bar scene. Love the improvements they have made as well. Highly recommend this bar. Has a great atmosphere. Isaac the manager was even nice enough to introduce himself and ask about our experience.“

“I had a good experience at Denny’s restaurant on University Drive In Edinburg this morning. Samantha, our server, constantly checked on us. She always made sure to be cheerful and attentive. Cassie, a server not assigned to us, had an ever-present smile. Her smile radiated so brightly that it lit up the mood of my friend and me. These two young ladies made our visit to this place extremely pleasant. I recommend sitting at the bar. The bar is where the staff assembles to retrieve their orders. It is where you will always see smiling faces. Here is where they have more of an opportunity to face you and gift you with a kind comment or beam another bright smile in your direction.“

“But not the drive-thru... it's always been a good restaurant, but the morning drive-thru is disappointing. It took 32 minutes for a sandwich, I had to move to the parking lot and go in and get it. (The sandwich and coffee were good, but cost $13.10.)“

“Had a good time. Our server was great“

“Best coffee in the area. Large space, good for working on your computer. Our favorite for coffee and tea. Hope they add some sugar free or low sugar snack items for the high number of local diabetics.“

“First time going and food was delicious and service was great friendly ppl very polite and respectful ... ❤️“

“I love this place. The workers are kind and helpful to new customers. The food is pretty spot on every time I come. It is a little pricey, but good food usually is. I like the chicken and grape sandwich on a croissant. The poblano corn soup (kinda spicy) and zucchini soup are also pretty good. I have pretty bad social anxiety but always feel very welcomed here.“

“Shout out to Emmanuel and the crew from Siempre Natural on University and McColl!! They remembered who I was, and took care of my order! Kindness, speed , excellent service, and excellent food! Highly recommend! I ordered the chicken, grape and pecan salad on a croissant with jalapeños ands fideo on the side, 10 out of 10 a must try!“

“I would only recommend the burgers . Everything else didn’t even have a morsel of salt . Onion rings were too greasy . Fries bland. Corn dog was just a boiled weenie with batter . Fried chicken was juicy but AGAIN bland , But the burgers were definitely 10/10“

“Rudy’s serves good BBQ with juicy brisket, savory turkey, and delicious sides. The green chili stew is my go to on cold days. It’s a hearty stew with potato and beef. Huge baked potatoes. The ambiance is casual and welcoming. Highly recommended for satisfying BBQ cravings. Drive thru is available.“

“Food was ok. Beans were bland but was better when added the salsa they give you. Got the omelette but eggs were over cooked. They should never have brown on them. The Shipwreck was better.( eggs, bell peppers, bacon, onion and cheese all scrambled together). The best thing about the place was the cinnamon roll! It's huge and tastes great. Daughter loved it.“

“I had the six once Ribeye, mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. The Ribeye was super tough, potatoes were almost cold and broccoli was okay. This place was not busy but it took thirty minutes to receive our order. We let the waiter know our dissatisfaction. So the manager to replace steak with another item. I said no. She gave us a dessert instead. I was very disappointed.“

“10/10 Got the Liam’s burger cut 1/2 with veggies and dressing on the side 🤤🤤“

“Hesitated to go because of the reviews. But this place is GOOD. The waitress with the red hair was kool and polite. Good portions of food and all. Was told this was an old place and have to visit when in the valley. Will come back next visit.“

“Nice place to hang out and Yasmeen Munoz was very nice and friendly“

“The $25 special for two is good. The steak tasted good but had a lot of gristle. The chicken was very good. The side salads are huge! Service was also good. It took 30 minutes to get our entrée. Margaritas were excellent & happy hour price was extremely low. The only complaint for every Applebee's is the music is way too loud!!“

“First time ever eating some food from Longhorn Steakhouse. I didn't eat there but ordered something to go. I ate their cranberry, strawberry salad. It comes with a wheat roll, which is a plus. Both the salad and wheat roll were quite tasty 😋“

“Coming here for nearly 25 years, I learned to memorize the daily specials. Uniquely curated daily, one of today's daily special was the fideo. You see, the fideo here is made just like how my mom used to make it back in the 70s and 80s. I take mine in a bowl with pinto beans and this is exactly how I always order it up on Wednesdays here at Rositas. The specials used to include the ice tea but not anymore, thus keep that in mind.“

“Love the bartenders and there performances are great. Great entertainment and surround sound. Id definitely 💯 visit again“

“wife's first time there...she loved it! we've hit snows bbq..luling bbq...burnt bean bbq..Longorias bbq...killers bbq...but willies has the taste of the rgv....will be coming here again.....Roy has it running well....“

“Stopped at the gas/convenience store yesterday am while on way to a rural ranch, Harmony Acres Ranch, and stumbled upon this place! So awesome! The kind of hidden gem, off beaten path, but so convenient and awesome place! I didn't stop for breakfast but thought dinner on the way back to PHX would be so easy. BOOM! Excellent menu, service, and quick delivery to my taste buds.

I will definitely be back and recommend to others!! Karen Barnes aka KB“

“service was exelent ! food mmmm ! no doubt very good !“

“Muy buen servicio la comida excelente calidad 😋😋“

“Server was friendly. She got are orders right and checked on us often. Got poblano omelet was good just needed more cheese. Pancakes delicious 🤤 and split decision
Breakfast was good but fresh toast is just too thick just taste like a whole lots of dough.“

“It was a good place for our group to meet. There were 16 of us and they made the seating arrangement work. They replaced the IHOPpy menu with a different one, but I forgot what it's called. Anyway, I like that one too, it's good if you're having an organization meeting because it keeps the tab down (as much as can be expected).“

“Oh my oh my where do I begin David who took our order was so amazing he got everything right and didn't miss a thing and Kevin who made the food deserves something special because holy moly that food was amazing the best meal I have had gee willy give these 2 people something because they deserve it“

“We went through the drive through and they explained every item on the menu to us since it was our first time. Then we sat in the little play area and ate. The cheese sticks, gizzards were fantastic but OMG!!!! The funnel cake I had ( Kevin Bacon) was to die for. I can’t wait to go again. I highly recommend this place ♥️

Kid-friendliness: My grandkids lost their minds with how big their treats were. Plus they got to play while they waited and played during and played after. I actually got to enjoy my treats because they were entertained. Very fun place!“
