New American Restaurants near Kennedale, TX

“I just tried the food here because I am always looking for healthy options and no fast foods. I was really happy with the quality of the food! I had the Chicken Caprice and it was delicious! I will definitely be ordering again!“

“I took myself here for my birthday dinner last year! I still remember how lovely of a time I had — I was away from home and wanted to have a nice dinner but it was very important to me to find a place that wouldn’t make me feel odd for celebrating alone!

First, the food was delicious, of course. It was expensive, of course, but definitely very appropriately priced for the quality of the food and experience! As a college student, I wanted to find a place where if it was expensive, I knew it was not overpriced, and it definitely was not! The steak and other foods I ate were delicious! The wine selection was also great and their sommelier was excellent and well versed on the menu.

Second, the service was lovely and I felt very well taken care of on my birthday. I never was made to feel awkward, out of place, or unimportant. In fact, they made me feel very welcome and treated me with compassion and kindness — even excitement — for my choice to spend my evening there! They were so kind and friendly. I loved the employees I talked to.

And finally, the atmosphere was beautiful and very appropriate. It was not anything overly themed or special, but it felt very nice and refined, and tailored to the quality of the restaurant and food.

Overall, I really loved my visit. I thank them greatly for the compassion and lovely experience for my birthday!“

“soooooo good!! great flavors. the meat doesn't need sauce, but their peach glaze BBQ sauce is fantastic!!“

“I will start with our server Meredith. Everything about her service was perfect. She was attentive, kind, informative, and most of all cares about her customers. We came here to celebrate our 19th anniversary and they made sure to make us feel celebrated. The decorated desert and fireworks..and a hand signed card from the staff were much appreciated! Now the food… We ordered the shrimp and grits, and the 10 OZ Fillet. Both were exceptional and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. Thank you for such a good experience on our special evening.“

“We hosted our Partner Appreciation Event at Clay Pigeon yesterday and had the most amazing experience. Leslie was a dream to work with and did everything to ensure a smooth event. She checked in periodically throughout the evening and was swift to take care of anything we needed. The waitstaff was incredibly professional, kind, over the top accommodating. Lastly, the food was delicious, as always. Thank you, Clay Pigeon team!“

“Great food....would recommend ..“

“Stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Korn was our server. She was very friendly and kept a lively conversation going. We had chips queso and salsa along with a few drinks. She also brought out our to go order too.“

“Chef made special asparagus tomato omelet for my vegetarian needs. Delicious!“

“If deliciousness had a form, it would definitely be this table of delicacies“

“Outstanding food!!!! It has been one of the best places I’ve ever gotten food. Delicious and the presentation was amazing. Honestly in love with this place.“

“Wicked Butcher is the best meal I've ever had. Worth it for the popovers and chocolate souffle alone, but also loved my fillet and curry salmon. Can't wait to go back!“

“We came to Dallas for the game and on the way out had breakfast. This place was amazing. Definitely recommend. No pork products. Beef bacon, turkey bacon etc. The biscuits and gravy were very good but the popeyes crepes were amazing! highly recommend. very clean. super friendly staff.“

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

“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!“

“Made a reservation. Was greeted as soon as we walked in the door. It was a chilly day and the hostess chose a table close to the heater without us having to ask. Very thoughtful. Server was attentive and friendly. Food is always very good. Ambiance at this location is nice, next to the trinity river and near shopping.“

“Are waiter wise amazing ,and the food was delicious as always! And we absolutely love the atmosphere!“

“We got "So Lucky" coming across "Rodeo Goat" heard the music outside we knew we were at the right place! the atmosphere is neatly rustic, the servers so attentive & fun & the food was excellent with such hefty portions that we required a to go box. food so scrumptious that later in our room made another great meal. all at a reasonable price. highly recommend“

“YES! This was our first visit, because we are from out of state. We stopped for a Saturday lunch. Tasty food, Relaxed atmosphere, and Exceptional staff that made us feel welcomed.“

“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.“

“🤩👏🏾🙌🏾 Great mission! Great volunteers! Great food! Great atmosphere!“

“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.“

“We arrived on this Friday night and my hopes were dashed a little when we had to park in a muddy parking lot next to the restaurant. All that disappeared the minute we walked inside. You’re transformed into not just a restaurant but an experience. They had the best blues band playing but not so loud you couldn’t talk. Then the sweetest hostess took us right to our booth. As we walked thru the restaurant we noticed families and patrons of all ages. They were met Emeline who was quite possibly the best server we’ve had the pleasure of meeting. So sweet, personable and guided us thru our entire night of beers, appetizers and main dish. We will always ask to sit in her section when we come back. So the beer selection is large and don’t forget to ask for tastes. They are very friendly with letting you try before purchasing one. I happened to love the Hoofer’s Hef which is a great aromatic Hefeweizen. We started with two apps. The BLTA dip which comes out with crisp and delicious pita triangles and this unbelievable cheesy dip that is out of this world good. We also had the Brussels sprouts and I’m quite the expert on good Brussels. These were by far the best Brussels I’ve had EVER! No kidding they were cooked perfectly and even had cranberries in there that gave it a little extra push to perfection. After seeing all the pizza around us we opted to split the Carnivore of Love. It was awesome! All those meats on top and the crust was so good. Only thing wished for was a little stiffer crusted underneath to hold it up. So we had to eat with a fork. It was cooked though so not complaining. Every Friday and Saturday they have blues bands that play. We loved that it wasn’t too loud like some places where you can’t even talk. This is our new favorite date night spot. So many things on the menu I we want to try and absolutely loved the atmosphere they had on this Friday night! BIG WIN!!🏆“

“Cold beer, and football. Great atmosphere!“

“Great drinks and finger food. Even better service from the staff.“

“Fantastic and healthy food!“

“We had the best time at lunch! Cody and Kyle and the whole crew were amazing and made the day so special! And the food was to die for! Get the cake, that’s all I’m going to say, get the cake!!!“

“Appetizers were awesome!!! Service was really slow w/ many excuses! Didn’t like the fact that if you were in a group, you could not pay individually even w/ a credit card, you had to figure out how to use 4 cards within the group to pay for all items! Not cool!!!“

“I’m upset at myself for waiting so long to come here. Of course I’ve heard about it and it was on my list for so long and finally gave it a chance. It wasn’t too busy so that may have played a part in it but still, the food was AMAZING! They have very interesting options for all preferences. I had the brisket Benedicts and were really really good. My friend had the chicken and waffles and the chicken was extra crispy and was great too. Our waiter took his time and was very patient and helpful so that was very much appreciated. I cannot wait to come back and try other dishes in their menu. I totally recommend it and now I understand why they’re always busy.“

“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....“

“Lisa's Chicken has built a reputation as a no-frills, go-to spot for classic fried chicken, and it’s easy to see why. The chicken is the star of the show, consistently praised for being hot, fresh, and perfectly crispy. The batter is seasoned well, providing a satisfying crunch that isn’t overly greasy, a common pitfall for many fast-food competitors. Whether you opt for the classic dark meat, a mix, or the generous chicken tenders, the result is a juicy and flavorful piece of chicken that tastes like it just came out of the fryer.
The value proposition is a major draw for customers. Many reviews highlight the affordable prices and generous portions, making it a great option for a satisfying meal without breaking the bank. A two-piece chicken dinner with two sides and a roll is often cited as a full and filling meal. While the fried chicken is the main attraction, the menu offers a solid selection of sides, including corn nuggets, mac and cheese, and fried okra, to round out the meal.
While not every review is perfect—some mention inconsistent quality at certain locations or a slightly salty flavor—the overwhelming sentiment is positive. Lisa's Chicken has cemented itself as a local favorite in the DFW area, beloved for its fresh, affordable, and simply delicious fried chicken. It’s the kind of place that loyal customers return to again and again, proving that sometimes, simple comfort food is all you need.“

“today is December 6, 2023 at 12:15 PM. I came to this location to eat a Philly cheese sandwich and french fries and drink a Coke. It was $15. The Philly cheese sandwich was very small and the meat was dried out and it had a weird taste to it. I don’t know if it was a seasoning or wet and the french fries were kind of yellowish and they put too much pepper on the fries, it was not worth the $15 that I paid but they were very nice. It’s two Hispanic ladies that work there. They serve breakfast from 6 o’clock in the morning until 10 and then they start lunch and they close early.“

“Waited 10 minutes and never greeted, asked for drink order, etc. This is not the first time we have received poor/No service. Very disappointing.“

“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.“

“The food was amazing, the service was fabulous, and the speak easy - awesome!“

“Angie the bartender waa awesome!!!“

“We love Fat Daddy’s! They have always supported Rockstars of Tomorrow, and we appreciate that so much! It’s a great place to eat and listen to music! The servers and Manager are great!“

“Fort Worth Top golf seems to have the rudest people working for them . Our server was not clear on anything and told us last call on food and drinks when I was not last call the place didn’t close for another 2 hours.“

“My roommates and I ADORED our dinner here! We decided to visit Simply Fondue as our final dinner together as roommates before we all moved away, and it was a super great choice! I opted for the full dinner experience!

First, the food and fondue was really good! We were able to cook the proteins to our liking, which was awesome! It was so much fun and we loved our food. We ordered one kind of cheese and we all shared it, but because of the special occasion, our waitress worked with us to let us each get our own flavor for dessert, which we so appreciated, as we all have vastly different preferences in sweets. I had a bit of an issue concerning the drinks I ordered because they did not taste correct (I am a bartender with certifications so I just was familiar with how they should taste), but I asked my waitress about it and she was very apologetic and super helpful! She explained that one of the bartenders was training (one of his first shifts) and that he was still learning, and she was more than happy to help sort out the situation!

Since I have mentioned the service now a few times, I wanted to highlight how WONDERFUL our server was! I truly wish I remembered her name! She was so kind, helpful, and patient with us and all of our questions pertaining to how the process would work! She took her time with us to walk us through how to cook/time things correctly, and gave her personal suggestions. She was super fun to have as a waiter and we enjoyed getting to know her throughout the evening! It was a lovely experience!

The atmosphere is feels very formal but does not make you feel out of place if you are just, like us, college students. We all dressed up nicely and felt so well-taken care of. It was a great memory for all of us. I highly recommend Simply Fondue — they have a great selection on their menu and seem to hire some amazing people as well!“

“First time eating at Texas Style burgers & wings with my family and we were very impressed! Our orders were the hickory burger with bacon and chili cheese fries and a bacon burger with chili cheese fries and they were delicious! Only negative is waiting about 20 minutes but im sure theres a lot of orders and short staffed in the kitchen.We will be back for sure and i would definitely recommend others to check them out!“

“I've recently been diagnosed with Terminal Grade 4 Glioblastoma. I'm still learning what I can eat. I came to Texas with my daughter for a concert and decided to give Cheesecake Factory a try, I haven't eaten out in months.

I told my server, Ryan, my situation and that I'd need time to research what had sugar and what didn't. I landed on stuffed mushrooms and the skinnylicious burger with no bun, no ketchup and added mustard. After I placed my order, he came back and suggested a lettuce wrap for it, then I had to ask about the salad, because online it said they had no dressing without sugar; he suggested vinegar and oil and brought me some from the back. Then asked if they had any fruit tea without sugar. He went to ask and they did. He was extremely helpful! I have not been full in months!

Again, his name was Ryan.

No, unfortunately, I don't have pics. I haven't been excited about food since March 😁“

“Great food and great live music venue!!“

“It good. Just wish it wasn't overpriced but the world now. I hate to go to eat sometimes. I'm always looking deals when it comes to eating if im of town with my family. My daughter loves this place so I wanted to make her happy. What I do my kids.“

“Staff was very accommodating of our last-minute private wedding party request. The private room was perfect, the menu option was great, the food was delicious, and the service was impeccable. Our waiter, Samuel, was very helpful, attentive, and gave exceptional service. Thank you!“
