50 Best American Restaurants near Forest Hill

“There was a small line not too too busy. The ceiling was leaking from the vents that was scary. Hazardous and extremely dangerous with it without a wet floor sign. Our food was delicious and I am Glad I came back to Killeen I only wish another captain d’s would come back our way! Missing a piece of home. The young man in the purple shirt was very helpful and amazing the customer service is outstanding still and I wouldn’t change anything about the wonderful feeling of getting what I paid for #alabama“

“We had the best experience this weekend at Bonnell’s. Long story short we don’t go out to eat because my son has a lot of food allergies and it’s not easy to accommodate them. However it was his 13th birthday so we really wanted to celebrate. The chef worked with me prior to coming in and made sure my kiddo was able to have a wonderful and safe meal to celebrate a huge milestone. All of the staff were sweet and thoughtful as well. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is warm. I’m happy to forever brag on this restaurant!“

We will definitely ask for him when we return. Everyone enjoyed the appetizer, their meals and our cocktails were on simply delicious. We'll be back for sure.“

“We hosted our rehearsal dinner at City Works Eatery and Pour House. Honestly nothing but great things from the atmosphere, the food, the drinks, and the staff. Colleen was so helpful throughout the planning process and she even came by on event day! They were flexible with us with possible rain on event day, but it all worked out perfect with the heaters on the patio. It was such a great evening thanks to the amazing team they have at City Works Clearfork! They made us feel like it was a small family dinner with hot meals and endless drinks while serving 100 of our guests. The team was professional, personable, and kind. I couldn't recommend more. We had a blast.“

“The food and customer service here is amazing! Thx to Alex and Gio!“

“I look forward to this being a regular new spot for us! Beautiful place, food and drinks were fantastic, and service felt so personalized. We went on a weekday evening so it was less busy and the perk of that was that the chef came out and greeted us and checked how we were enjoying the food. Excited to go back and try more options on the menu!“

“BJ"s has some of the.best food in the Metro-plex. Their prices are real reasonable .“

“Hannah is the best server food was great“

“Burgers were great! We had a big party with 10 boys and sat upstairs. Helped keep our kids out of the locals way so they could enjoy their meals. Upstairs has a covered balcony. Sodas are not mainstream brand, the Root Beer is very good and the beer was cold!!“

“I bring my son and granddaughter up there on occasion, and the food is always excellent. Service by Courtney is always top notch, and we enjoy going up to see her!“

“Today, 9 Nov 24, my wife and myself stopped at Cotton Patch. It was cool outside so we asked for coffee. Waiter informed us that the coffee machine was broke and had been for over two weeks. So my wife asked for hot cocoa. But they don’t serve hot cocoa. But the meal was very good.“

“5 stars! This was my first time at Johnny’s Chicken & Waffles, and it definitely won’t be my last. The food was outstanding, and our server, Kia, made the experience even better. She was friendly, attentive, and recommended some of the best items on the menu. Every recommendation was on point. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. If you stop by, ask for Kia. She’ll take good care of you!“

“Gracias a Fabiola muy amable“

“Little Red Wasp is a great dining experience with creative American cuisine, a modern atmosphere, and excellent service. The menu features flavorful dishes from comfort classics to unique favorites. With a welcoming setting and attentive staff, it's a great place for lunch, dinner, celebrations, or enjoying a night out downtown.“

“Super divertido! La pizza muy buena!🤩🤩“

“Great service. Fish is on point. Try it spicy!!!“

“Just left and will never go back. Ordered a burger and didn’t realize until I had eaten several bites that a large portion in the middle was totally raw. Not just undercooked a little - totally raw. I chose to not send it back as I had consumed some of it but saved it to show the waitress. When she told the manager, the manager blamed her ( the waitress). I then spoke to the manager and she would not listen and kept insisting it was the waitress who was responsible. She talked right over me, and was downright nasty.She admitted she didn’t bother to look at the burger. No customer service skills whatsoever. I was not asking for anything just explaining it was not the waitress’ fault that the kitchen didn’t cook the burger. The waitress was very concerned and apologized. She did an excellent job of customer service.“

“The lobster and steak and fried green tomatoes. first time visiting, and my husband and I are coming back. Excellent service. keep up the great customer service. WE LOVE IT! 😋😋“

“Great staff very nice and sweet“

“this place is fantastic. love the waiters, and food it hot and delicious. great beer selection!! anytime I'm over in Helen are we hit up this spot!!“

“Excellent little spot! Service is extraordinary and the chicken fried steak is delicious. The pinto beans are delicious as well but they need to put cornbread on the menu because beans and cornbread are a southern staple. Also, homemade pie would be a definite crowd pleaser……I would pie a slice of pie every time I go!“

“Grace in downtown Fort Worth is one of my absolute favorite places to eat and drink. Everything about the experience is exceptional—from the elevated menu and beautifully prepared dishes to the outstanding cocktails and inviting atmosphere.

The staff truly sets this place apart. The service is attentive, professional, and consistently top-tier, making every visit feel special. The food easily deserves 10 stars if that were possible, but since 5 is the max on Google, that’s what it gets—though it doesn’t come close to capturing how good it really is. If you’re looking for one of the best dining experiences in downtown Fort Worth, Grace is at the top of the list.“

“Stoped by for a healthy meal for lunch and it was delicious“

“I’m not gonna lie—I went into Flower Child a little skeptical. 😂 A restaurant focused on healthy food? I just knew I was probably not going to be a fan.

Well… consider me officially proven wrong.

I ordered the Green Coconut Curry and added chicken, and it is SO freaking good. The flavor is incredible. Then, because apparently I was feeling adventurous, I decided to try the Cauliflower Rice Risotto—and listen, I don't know what kind of sorcery is happening here, but that is slapping too. 😂

I genuinely did not expect food this healthy to taste this damn good. Much to my surprise, Flower Child has officially made me a fan. I will absolutely be back to try more of the menu!“

“My husband and I have been here a few times and have always enjoyed ourselves. on our last visit Taylor was really amazing and took great care of us. I hope on our next visit she is our server.“

“I’m not a regular to establishments like this but the experience here and the food was incredible“

“When you walk in it's more like a restaurant than a coffee shop and everyone is super kind and the atmosphere is kind of a nostalgic restaurant type or like an old diner feel and definitely worth the visit I would stay away from the muffins but everything else is pretty good“

“We were lucky enough to get a table for 3 at 6:30 on a Saturday night. I believe our servers name was Rudy (sorry if that's not right). Anyways he was great explaining the menu, his favorites, and popular dishes. We went with the gargonzola fries and the apricot brie with pita. Loved the fries but wish the cheese was spread out more over the fries. Only half the fries were topped which led to half just being normal waffle fries. Great taste and idea but execution could be a little better. I did not care for the brie but I'm not a fan of that. The rest of the table loved it so I would have to day it was good. Lol. I had the poblano burger for my entree. They cook it well done so I was worried but it was juicy and tasted very good. It was actually better than I expected! It also was served with fries. Washed it all down with the German pilsner which was really good and refreshing as well. Service was top notch and the pace of the meal was perfect. I highly recommend this place and I look forward to going back to try other dishes.“

“First time visit! Felt like eating dessert for breakfast! Very good food, plentiful, beautiful, and served by nice, personable wait staff. At the great price, we will be making a point of coming back often to try the multitude of other dishes on the menu. Can't wait!“

“Alexis is an outstanding waitress! Her warm friendly manner and efficient customer service makes her a great waitress. Give this girl a raise!!“

“We reserved a party room for a Bridesmaid's luncheon last Friday. Reata does an A+ job. Working with McKynlea was a delight. We chose a limited menu, including several delicious gluten free choices. She sent me a sample menu ahead of time for my approval. Carae was our waitress and did an exceptional job. We also had a table in the main dining room for half a dozen of the husbands who insisted on coming to have the special tamales, and bison burgers! They too loved the food and had excellent service. I cannot recommend Reata more highly. We live several hours from Ft Worth, and are looking for more opportunities to come again! Thank you Reata staff for adding to our wedding celebration. We are grateful.“

“I’ve been meeting friends there for several months to share good times, good food, and good games. They have a lovely assortment of both foods and games. Their little pot pies are unique and delicious! Plan to meet up with some of your friends soon. It’s a great place to hang out. It would be a great date night, too!“

“Ate breakfast here this morning food was good, service was slow but the shocker was seeing a "food tax" fee on my bill. No signage at entrance displaying an announcement of this new "fee". Cashier couldn't explain what it was for, why not raise your prices instead of sneaking this onto people's bill? Seems dishonest to me....“

“First time here today! Great staff, food and lanes. We will be back!“

“It’s definitely good. But boyyyyy he like spirit airlines! He will charge you for EVERYTHING! U ask for extra mild sauce he will charge u and give you a squirt! Again food is good but most times Id rather go drive to Chicago chicken coop Or whats cluckin or JJs to be honest!“

“Denton location is amazing!! Food, service and atmosphere are phenomenal!! A new family favorite!! When they say the food is fresh, they mean it!! Best place we've eaten in a long time!“

“They say money can’t buy you happiness I beg to differ. I took my Mom to lunch (paid for it) and she is beyond happy. Luby’s for the Win❤️“
