50 Best American Restaurants near Leander

“Well if anyone needs an excuse to go try a smash burger from The Boss Cheesesteak, this is it lol. Probably one of the best burgers in general that I’ve had in a really long time. I got a triple but ate it before I could get a good pic. It was massive, hot, fresh, cheesy and so filling. 5 stars all around. Tried their #1 cheesesteak yesterday and it also did not disappoint. Am I about to become very fat? Possibly. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Good job boss crew“

“We love Smokey Mo's BBQ. I stop by whenever we're craving good BBQ. The staff is always friendly & anxious to please! The smell drives me crazy on the way home. I have all I can do not to pull over & inhale it all by myself. Of course the family would be upset I'm sure!“

“The bacon chicken ranch was 🔥 — juicy chicken, crispy bacon, and ranch done right. Don’t skip the garlic parm fries… perfectly seasoned and addicting. Great food all around!“

“Great place to watch your favorite sports shows and games“

“My wife and I went on opening night, we used the app to check in and drove over once our table was ready. The place was packed but they got us in and the staff was excellent and the food was great. So glad we have a Texas Roadhouse so close to home.“

“We visited Moonshine Bar & Grill this weekend, and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. From the moment the food arrived, it was clear we were in for something special—chef’s kiss doesn’t even begin to cover it! Every dish was perfectly prepared, full of flavor, and clearly made with care and excellence. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the service was attentive, and the overall experience was simply top-tier. This is the kind of place that reminds you why great food and great hospitality matter. 10 out of 10— We will absolutely be recommending Moonshine Bar & Grill and can’t wait to return! 🍽️✨“

“I love this place. We usually go several times during the month. We love our Cosmopolitan drinks always made with our favorite Grey Goose Vodka. The food is amazing. I’m not really into spicy but here I can handle it. Last but no least… the service! The customer service. Fast, kind, always with a smile open to help and give you advises. They are so skilled and knowledgable. Waiters knows al the plates, and tastes. Also huge shout out to my Venezuelan friend. He is a bus boy and he is always goes above and beyond. I’m Venezuelan and it’s really nice to see him. Every time he knows I’m there he comes to say hi, give us a recommendation too and more! He is just awesome! Thank y’all“

“We use to come here on occasion but the last time, which was over a year ago, the food quality had dropped. Well my daughter stopped by and talked me and my wife to trying Cheddars again. The food was back to the great quality.
I had the full rack a ribs with fries and steamed broccoli. My wife had the bake white fish( lemon pepper), fries and broccoli and cheese. My daughter had the Fried Fish and chips. The server was awesome.
The only issue I had was with the mini Kiosk on the table. The waitress took our order but I paid thru the kiosk and the display was nasty. I suggest maybe cleaning it after every customer. Oh I had an extra wipe from my ribs so I went ahead and cleaned it.“

“There is a reason why they have been around for so long! Dahlias is always great from food to service. Super nice wait staff and breakfast service is always quick but food is super fresh. They seriously have the best pancakes ever, no doubt. I can't ever order anything else! I definitely recommend to anyone looking for great pancakes and overall american style diner for breakfast“

“Absolutely excellent experience from start to finish! The restaurant was clean, welcoming, and had a great atmosphere. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. The fresh bread with butter was a great way to start, the Caesar salad was crisp and delicious, and the steak was cooked exactly as ordered—tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The fries were hot and seasoned well, and the portions were generous. Every part of the meal exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for outstanding food, excellent service, and a relaxing place to enjoy a quality steak dinner, I highly recommend LongHorn Steakhouse. I'll definitely be coming back again!“

“Great food and customer service!“

“Had such a great time at Dog Haus on Friday night for music bingo! Chris was so friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout the night.

“Healthy eating isn't always the easiest thing to come by when dining out in Texas. Honest Mary is a fast-casual kitchen preparing vegetarian, gluten-free and healthy bowls at their two branches in Austin. We stopped by recently and did their Sedona Lime and Med Harissa Bowl, both were freshly prepared and tasted very good. You can also do custom bowls choosing your own proteins, rice/salad base and other food items/sauces. Prices are about right for the food quality and portion sizes served. Seating area is a regular, casual restaurant and bowls are prepared fairly quickly.“

“I love this place! It’s clean, has friendly staff, and mouth watering brisket.“

“We came to Kerbey Lane to celebrate the start of my 4th year as a business owner! My family has been an integral part of my success of LearnLee Tutors! So we celebrate with warm, fluffy pancakes and coffee!“

“Perfect little sports bar.

The drinks were good and reasonably priced. The bartender was on top of everyone's drinks and did a great job. The place was clean and it felt comfortable.

There was darts,pool, and slots available.

Lots of tvs around the bar, we were watching world cup games. Very friendly environment, everyone was having fun.“

“We had a wonderful breakfast at Snooze, an A.M. Eatery! The food was delicious and fresh, and everything we ordered was really good. Our server, Ash, was very nice, friendly, and attentive. She made our experience even better with her great service. We really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“We were in town for my son’s basketball tournament and decided to stop in for lunch. Upon arrival the staff was very pleasant and attentive. The food came out fresh and hot! My hubby found out that they have their own beer and definitely couldn’t leave without a pack. Thank you for the hospitality. If we ever return to your town this restaurant will be on our list ?“

“I'm going to be honest I ain't getting paid, sponsored, or swayed by the pretty girls working here.

The live music is decent, the drinks do the job, and the food is good I think I mostly come back for it My biggest complaint is that the staff could check in on customers a little more often. A lot of the time it was faster for me to go up and get my own drink. Regulars typically get drinks first

That said, I've been here a few times and it's not a bad bar at all. If you're a regular, you'll probably get even better service. My advice is simple speak up if you need something and don't be afraid to be a little independent. You'll have a good time.“

“Super hole in the wall, good food, good atmosphere!! Loved it!!!! Kids played pool and drew with sidewalk chalk. Did I mention the food was GREAT! A big thanks to our awesome server!“

“Tonight was our first time trying them, And I must say the food and customer service was amazing! I am a wings gal and they brought what needed to be brought to the table! We are definitely spinning the block on them again! Thank you guys (Carlos and his wife) so much for a great experience! 😁😋“

“Good beer selection and the pizza is good. Great ambiance. But I have to warn you, I have not had a burger that bad since school cafeteria burgers when I was a kid. Tough justifying $11 for one of the worst burgers I’ve ever had. Same for my wife.“

“We drive an hour to eat and we’re told it would be a 45 minute wait and then when that time came they would be closing and turned away. There were 8 at least empty tables. We come there a lot and disappointed. We even told hostess we drove an hr.“

“Wow…I heard the hype and I admit I was a little skeptical, but wow. The food was so delicious. We got the triple dipper (mozzarella sticks, chipotle chicken, and bites), the ribs (2 combo with chipotle chicken crispers, Mac and cheese and fries), and the Nashville crispers. Everything was so good and fresh! Our waitress Neveah was literally an angel. Just 5 stars all around.“

“Had an amazing experience and the food was delicious 🤤….@LurueAnthony“

“Great bar staff always consistent but allow children to sit at bar at night even on Friday eves. If wanted to put up with children at night would have stayed home. Then 250lb obese young woman sits next to me and cannot shovel food in fast enough. Had to move. Hit or miss. But again good bar staff.“

“Great place but watch out for the games that don’t work(they will give you a refund if you let them know) 😄“

“First time here and love it!“
