50 Best American Restaurants in Mckinney

“Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. I did not know about Hugs' business plan of hiring and supporting adults with different abilities, and I fell in love with the place. My family was in town for a wedding, so we don't live in the area, but if we return to McKinney, we will definitely go back to Hugs!

The coffee was outstanding!“

“I highly recommend Harvest for their food. We have been coming to this restaurant since it opened and this was our first time in the newer space since it is so hard to get a reservation. We came for my husband’s birthday and it was perfection from the minute we walked in. The host said happy birthday to him and then had us go upstairs to the live music area on the 3rd floor. We had to wait a few minutes but the manager took care of our cocktail order because of it. The music from the vinyl stripes was excellent. The waitress darnesha was kind attentive and super happy. What amazing customer service! He was also able to pick a dessert off the menu. Such an enjoyable evening. My husband’s day was made with the live music and great food. Thank you“

“11/17 is our favorite!!! We love the cheese sticks, the boneless wings, and the steak fingers most of all! Delicious drinks too. It’s definitely our happy place.“

“Truly amazing birthday evening thanks to our son and daughter-in-law! Our sweet server, Demetrius, was so attentive and friendly. Allison, the manager stopped by our table several times and we ran into her as we were leaving. She recommended a red wine for me to try. The meal was served piping hot and beyond delicious! I loved the Sea Bass! For dessert, we were treated to Chocolate Cake and Key Lime Pie! I can’t wait to go back!“

“We have been on the hunt for a breakfast place closer to home and we have found it! It is a beautiful upscale brunch place with a bar, with excellent food and over the top service. The coffee is from Italy with bold tones but no bitterness. It is difficult to find good coffee. The pancakes were light and sweet. The bacon is very meaty. I love Egg cited!“

“My Husband & I were hungry, so we wanted to try something different. So, we tried this place. The fries were good. But, I must say that the burger had NO FLAVOR, to me. Not even the Pepper Jack Cheese made it better. Sorry, but, we'll be passing on this burger joint.“

“This mom-and-pop spot never disappoints! Their lemon pepper chicken wings are the best I’ve ever had—crispy, flavorful, and always fresh. Paired with their beef fried rice, it’s the perfect comfort meal. We’ve been coming here for years, and the food and service are consistently amazing. Truly a hidden gem that feels like home every time!“

“We’ve had the pleasure of attending several events at Gather in Downtown McKinney, and each time we’ve been welcomed with warmth and professionalism. The venue is beautiful, but it’s the people that truly make it shine. We also had the opportunity to host an awards show there through their work with local nonprofits, and the evening was nothing short of incredible. The support from ownership and staff played a huge role in making it a success. Grateful to have a place like Gather right in the heart of McKinney!“

“Visited this location on a Saturday morning early around 830am. They were not busy and we were sat immediately. Ordered coffee, which was good and then quickly were greeted by our waiter, Sam.

“This is one of my go-to places in the area. The main reason I always return - ORLANDO. He is one of the OG staff that makes me want to go back. Not sure what you want to drink that night? Ask Orlando. Long day and need to smile? Ask Orlando. Starving and everything looks good? Ask Orlando. Yes, the food is good Yes, the drinks are good (my fave is the Purple Duck). But - secretly - why do my friends and I go? To hang with Orlando! 🥰“

“I have only been to the location off of 121 and Custer twice and each time my servers both Randy and Gabrielle were awesome! I would definitely recommend this location it may actually be my new go to spot especially as long as they have the burger deal 😊“

“We’ve been to the McKinney quite a few times since it opened and have never had an unpleasant experience. My children will actually pick this when given in the options to where we can dine at.
The food is always amazing, service friendly, and wait time never more then 15 minutes. For my husband, two sons and myself we usually spend about 60 to 75 bucks. That’s 4 burgers, 2 sides, one drink, and a shake.
They do have a drive thru but we always choose to dine in.“

“1st time dining there. So thankful we were able to get reservations for our large party. Service was fantastic! Attentive and friendly staff. Then the food and drinks: Absolutely delicious! my ribeye was perfectly cooked and seasoned, the Brussel sprouts, deviled eggs, sugarbacon, asparagus ,and spicy pimento cheese were amazing! We were trying each other's dishes and they were all tasty. Cocktails were great! Will definitely come back and will also recommend.“

“During my visit to this local Hooters, I had the pleasure of being served by a fit, blonde-haired, blue-eyed server named Hailey. She was incredibly attentive and greeted us with a warm smile right from the start. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals, the lively atmosphere, and the exceptional service provided by Hailey. I’ll definitely be returning every time I’m in the area!“
