50 Best American Restaurants near Cave Spring

“The best diner in America! The customer service was excellent. We received our food quickly. The quality of the food was delicious. I had pecan waffles, over medium eggs with hashbrowns that came with ham chunks and melted cheese. I also had a T-bone steak. All good! I highly recommend this place.“

“I had only ever driven passed never stopped in, and I am so glad I did today! The Buffalo Chicken Philly wrap was phenomenal- the handcut fries also delicious. Wish I had room to try one of their deserts. Excellent service by Christine, my water never got close to empty.“

“I love going to Chip & Jo’s!! It feels like you’re taking a step back in time (in a great way)! You seat yourself when a table opens up—you better hurry because they fill up quick lol The food is delicious, the staff is so kind and attentive and the prices are unbeatable for such a good deal!! I’m always pleased when I go!“

“Tonight my soulmate and I experienced one of the better meals we’ve shared in months! The food was excellent. The drinks were superb. The waitress was excellent. To top it off, Shane Gillis personally made our meal! Will come back“

“We had a thoroughly enjoyable dinner consisting of steak frites at one of their busiest times -- Saturday night of Restaurant Week -- and the service was friendly and accommodating throughout. The staff above all is what keeps us coming back!“

“Sit down and take it all in. You don’t go here for the food (it’s great). You go here for the spectacle of 2 AM. I dream about their cheeseburgers and hotdog chili.“

“Been going to Paul’s for over thirty years. Never, ever had a bad or even so-so meal there. The owners are there, they will get to know you and are always trying to please your eating experience. May I suggest you try it. It is not the high class Restr.. , but one you will find reasons to return. Tell them Dan sends his best!“

“Love Uncle D's for lunch but honestly have not had anything I would not order again. Friendly staff and great service. Delicious food great selection - Classic Americana home cooking.“

“Horrible experience. The descriptions on the menu are inaccurate. I went and had lunch with my 86-year-old mother. We ordered salads. She ordered Cobb salad and I ordered the fried chicken salad, because the description says it's served on a bed of "mixed greens". I hate iceberg lettuce. When my salad came, I ate the fried chicken tenders, but complained, because the salad was nothing but iceberg and romaine lettuce. The young, so-called manager, named TJ, was very rude and unapologetic and told me that lettuce is mixed greens. He told me if I wasn't happy, I could go to cooperate, in which I did. I was truly embarrassed by how I was treated in front of my mom. Update: I spoke to the owner Bob, he was super apologetic and embarrassed at how his employee treated us. He said the menu has been the same way for 30 plus years. We discussed how lettuce and mixed greens are NOT the same thing, and is misleading on the menu. I know after speaking with him that he will do the right thing.“

“Excellent Sunday brunch buffet! Highly disappointed that when i called ahead of time to ask if they had a dessert table, was told No. We had a party of 10 for a birthday celebration, so I brought a cake. When it was time to have our cake, i was told it would be a $1.00 a plate charge to have a dessert plate. Extremely turned off about that. Ruined our birthday celebration. Idk? Is this a thing? Never ever have heard of a plate fee.“

“Looking for a great healthy option for great food look no further. I was driving thru the town of salem and was looking for a place to get a bite.

“Absolutely, hands down one of the best restaurants I have had the pleasure of dining in. From the very friendly and helpful staff to one of the cleanest restaurants I have seen. While in town on October 24th and the 25th, had dinner on Friday and was so impressed, I had to go back Saturday before leaving. Needless to say, when I return to Roanoke I will be staying in the same location to only have this restaurant 3 blocks away.“

“The bartenders here know how to hustle. It was fun having drinks and watching them work. It was definitely bumping in there and that’s not really my scene. I still hung out because the service was top tier and the bartenders although busy were friendly and welcoming! A really good place downtown with a great liquor selection.“

“Always pleased with the service and amazing menu“

“Fine dining, excellent food and friendly professional staff.“

“I decided to stop by New Year's eve to get something in my stomach before drinking. They were full but I was offered a seat outside and took it. The food is all great here. Tonight they had a man carding at the front door. A customer came up already with a bad attitude. He didn't want to be carded and was insulted for he had been coming here for years. The gentleman minding the door whose name was Chris handled it very calmly with no attitude even though the guy calmed he didn't like Chris's attitude. the customer was clear trying to start something but only received politeness. I saw that same guy trying to start it up with another gentleman watching the door. Great job to Chris. He was also nice enough to stop and chat with me and do his job. I was the only one sitting outside it was nice to be acknowledged. Thanks“

“I placed a special order for their cannolis after various recommendations and they were beyond a hit! What a great pair of owners in a quaint spot in downtown Roanoke. Extremely reasonably priced for amazing, fresh, handmade, REAL food. I will definitely return to try more!“

“Was craving a waffle, and this place came highly recommended. It did not disappoint. From "servers that assist each other and any customer in the place" to "a warm welcome and gratitude for having chosen them as we were leaving" to the "delicious food", it was a win all around!“

“we had a wonderful experience from excellent service to amazing food. the woodfire grilled pizza was a family favorite!“

“Absolutely the best steak ANYWHERE around! Reasonably priced and prompt, friendly service. Their huge onion rings are the stuff legends are made of, along with their honey butter and rolls. I could eat here three times a day!“

“Didn’t get a chance to visit during our stay but dropped by just before leaving the town.
Tried their biscuits & homemade strawberry and blueberry jam. Just yum.

Shout out to their customer service. Very sweet and welcoming people.“

“It will suffice until Roanoke gets a Raising Cane's.

Food is pretty good but the quality of the tenders tend to vary. Sometimes they're really good, other times they're a little rubbery. Their fry seasoning is pretty elite, and the chicken bacon ranch loaded fries are probably my favorite thing on the menu.“

“Ordered Philly Cheese Steak and it was edible....kind of like a dry roast beef sandwich. Couldn't taste or see green peppers, onions and CHEESE which is what a Philly CHESS steak is supposed to be.“

“was my first time there tonight and Mike and Adrienne made it fab! had a group looking for pool and pizza and we lucked out with them!! will def be back!! ❤️“
