44 Best American Restaurants near Hamilton

“My first time here, but this is the best place I’ve eaten in a very, very long time. My family of 4 Adults and four little children all had a great Dinner here. The service was fantastic even though they were down to one Chef, one waitress and one bartender. If this were American Idol, I’d hit the Golden Buzzer. By the way, aside from the great Dinners, the Fiery Mussels were to die for. Best I’ve ever had and I’ve had plenty of them.….. to include famous Berthas at Fels Point, in Baltimore.“

“service was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection. Waiter was excellent and very attentive.Our guests were as happy with the service and taste as we were. Would highly recommend this restaurant.“

“It can be a little loud, but it is a pub. Breakfast is basic but good. Service was excellent, friendly, and timely. Definitely will go back again.

Kid-friendliness: Breakfast in lunch would be great times for kids. Although we have done dinner and taken a child. Later in the day it can be distracting and loud and kid's kind of feed off that.“

“A must Excellent breakfast today, staff friendly, menu delectable, best Americano I've ever had!“

“Long post ahead, warning! I walked in around 9 pm and the hostess didn't bat an eye at my dining alone, and didn't say anything about it, which I appreciate. I was seated right away with no problems and immediately got a chance to look over the menu. I will admit, it took a little bit longer than expected for my waiter to come over, but as a lone diner I sort of expected that. I looked like I was waiting for someone, I'm sure. The look and feel of the place was very upscale, but they didn't have any problems with me walking in wearing a nerdy t-shirt. I was seated in this cute little booth for 2 with curtains on the side so, if I wanted a more private dinner, I could have it. It was a cute touch! The restaurant also offered patio dining and since it's by the creek, that would have been a downright charming experience were it not the usual Maryland summer. Despite having a bar, the restaurant was respectably quiet and low-key, making it an easy dining experience. I wasn't in the mood for something wild, and this place really hit the nail on the head. My first waiter Kevin, however, was the picture of polite helpfulness. He answered all of my questions, made some wonderful suggestions, and was incredibly pleasant to talk to. I was delighted to find out that this place takes part in DC restaurant week, so I was able to take part in that promotion. Under a suggestion from Kevin, I ordered a glass of their moscato (I wanted something light and sweet), and the wine was so good I brought home a whole bottle. Not really on them, but it does reflect their excellent selection. Dinner itself was delicious. The red pepper soup was refreshing and flavorful, without being too filling. The steak I ordered was cooked to perfection and was flavored in the perfect way to make the actual flavor of the meat shine. The potatoes were both light and fluffy, but also had the little chunks of potato that I prefer in my mashed. The best part was desert. About halfway through my appetizer, Kevin introduced my other waiter, Maddy, who took over after he went home. She was as much of a delight as he was, and made possibly the best recommendation of the night. Desert was this blackberry tart that I did not have room for but could not put down. Gooey and crumbly all at once, with a warm center that was almost caramel-y even though it was fruit based. Topped with a light cream to balance it all out, it was absolutely delicious. I will be thinking of that tart all day tomorrow. The prices on the menu were a little high, but I wouldn't go so far to say they were unreasonable. If I had wanted a cheaper option, I could have gone to any chain restaurant ever. In the grand scheme of downtown Frederick, with it's many small businesses and one of a kind dining experiences, I think this was reasonable. For reference, a lot of meals were between $20 and $30, but a good steak is almost always $30+. Despite the price, I had an exceptional dining experience, and would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for upscale dining, without the upscale requirements.“

“Good food as always. Our server Jordan was perfect!“

“I recommend everything. Mostly the rack of ribs. The Best ever!!I will be back“

“Great meal at The Conche. We did the three course wine pairing and it was excellent. Salvador, our waiter was very knowledgeable and welcoming. Nice atmosphere and good vibe.“

“The staff is friendly and attentive! Love that. Always great music. Food is delicious. Atmosphere very welcoming.“

“Randomly passed by and stopped in for lunch on a long road trip back home from Maryland…and so very glad we did! Truffle fries, fig and brie flatbread, and strawberry cheesecake French toast…all so good!!! This was literally one of the best meals we’ve had in as far back as we can remember. We are so sad you are over 7 hours away from us, but we hope lacrosse or work takes us somewhere near you again. We will definitely be back!“

“Nice little spot. It's not fancy by any means, but it was exactly what we were looking for. Good food, good prices and a good menu selection. Server was very nice. Only real complaint was my husband asked for over medium eggs and got over easy and I asked for scrambled and they were cooked a little longer than I like.“

“we all loved our meals!! I had the Chinatown salad it was amazing!! 😋delicious“

“The food is delicious, and everything is fresh. It is the perfect place to stop after visiting the C & O Trail, or any other excuse you can find. I highly recommend Big Belly’s.“

“Great Service, consistent in making food with the flavors and seasoning. I appreciate this because restaurants, for some reason, tend to lose flavor and quality over time, but buffalo factory makes the difference.
Their wigs are the best in the area.“

“Delicious and perfect date night atmosphere. This is our new go to place when we visit family in town!“

If you have not given their culinary experience a try, do yourself a favor!“

“First timers, was excellent food & service. Will definately return on our next visit to Leesburg.“

The restaurant list it closes at 9PM. As a courtesy we called at 820p and said we were arriving in 10 to 15 mins as we spoke with Alley the host. We arrive at 833p. The host Alley proceeds to sit us down to eat. The owner yells that they close the kitchen at 830PM. He doesn't look at us as guest or acknowledge us but instead tells Alley the stop at 830pm. I asked if he was the manager he said he was the owner. It really shows n this situation how the owner handles himself. If you could get a zero star he would get it. With over 500 reviews I rarely give a 1 star but this year it goes to the owner of this restaurant. My fair and honest reviews speak for themselves. As a business owner myself in the service industry as well as I use to own 4 food franchises owners should realize their word and communication is the most valuable asset. If a team if a team memmber promises something then the owner should honor it. He didn't care. 0 Food: 1/5 | Service: 1/5 | Atmosphere: 1/5“

“I had an event for St Patrick’s Day catered by Spanky’s Shenanigans. If 5 star is the top, this was 10 star. The food was absolutely delicious and more than plentiful. People raved about the Corner Beef and Cabbage and Fish and Chips. The food arrived in a timely fashion and was hot. Kolt the manager could not have been pleasanter or easier to work with. I look forward to future catered events with this restaurant. Cathleen“

“Great beer, even better food, friendly staff, great location.“

“Carlos, our waiter is awesome!!!!“

“Absolutely fantastic food. The entire meal was an experience and one that I will not forget. Chef Jason personally checks in with every table throughout the dinner service.“

“We love this club so much. Not only is it a gorgeous setting to play golf, but we have met some of the nicest people there who will be our lifelong friends.“

“My first time but definitely not the last. We enjoyed the food, the music and the excellent service of Cristina and Ben. I'm from Puerto Rico and truly came to a bit of culture and boricua cuisine. Strongly recommend the sampler and mojitos. We had alcapurrias and the flavor was amazing. Hint, big size alcapurria?? Don't leave without trying the mofongo and the tostones! Live music on Saturday night!“

“Delicious food. best burgers around! Eddie is a great guy who'll do whatever he needs to to ensure great service and satisfaction. will definitely keep returning here!!“

“I come for the wings with honey bourbon bbq sauce. Fun sports bar atmosphere with plenty of TV’s.“

“Yeah, it's a gas station and mini-mart, but much better than most! Huge food and drink selection, and I never thought I'd be trusting enough to buy fried fish from a gas station restaurant, but it's REALLY good and once you try it you'll go back.“

“Best quick burger in Northern Virginia!“

“Best deep fried mushroom and chicken wings in downtown Leesburg.“

“Great place. Excellent food. And the staff is beyond amazing. Everyone is very friendly and made us feel right at home. I definitely recommend and will be returning.“

“Great Friday open mic, cool spot with friendly staff! Chicken tenders are hand-cut and breaded, too!“

“Great food, great service, & a great selection of bourbon“

“I’m torn. This has been a staple of ours for quite a while. Food is still excellent. Service has taken a hit.“

“We enjoyed watching a couple of the evening matches with our dinner. Plenty of TVs no matter where you sit. I enjoyed a Rueben, and my son enjoyed a penne Alfredo with chicken. We’ll be happy to visit in the future as we come through town periodically.

Parking: Easy in & out shopping center parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Friendly to my kid“

“Today service was not the best i have had in padt visits. No refills of water and coffee offered. I had to call on someone other than my server. No follow up check to see if I needed anything else. Disappointing.“

“Excellent meal this evening with family and friends in town. The food is fresh and cooked to order. Great service and wine as well!“

“Wings were good, including the velocity wings. Some sauces needed a little help in the flavor richness. Otherwise a good experience visiting for dinner. Staff are very friendly and attentive, restaurant was clean, well laid out and good menu selections.“

“I cannot explain how much of an amazing experience I had tonight at velocity. I have never had better wings in my life! Seriously! I really love wings and have had many at many different places, but this was BY FAR THE BEST I HAVE EVER HAD! I was being very particular as always, and I wanted something that wasn’t quite on the menu, Ramon was so kind as to really help to get a VERY SPECIFIC flavor that suited me perfectly. I couldn’t believe how quickly and smoothly he received what I said and made something happen. It made for a unique and special experience! This guy deserves a medal!? A raise!? Idk you tell me but he absolutely deserves some recognition because I will never forget this first impression! Impressive service all around. The ladies that server us, kind, sweet, and lovely to speak with, the atmosphere was nice and I enjoyed the drinks as well! I got a Margarita and a bloody mary which I asked to be made spicy as well! And they delivered on that too! This place is epic. I couldn’t recommend it enough... Wow..“
