43 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.“

“We stayed two nights at the Red Fox Inn while celebrating our 46th Wedding Anniversary. The Orange County room in the original historic building was cozy, spacious and well-appointed. The bed was really comfortable and the sitting room was perfect for sipping champagne and wine at night or enjoying the box breakfast and coffee in the morning. We were not disappointed with our room selection for our stay in Middleburg. Our stay was wonderful and a memorable experience. The tavern bar is also small and cozy but does not open until 4:30 PM. Only one disappointment was that The Tavern Inn no longer offers lunch and their dinners are limited to a rather pricey $125 per person 4-course meal offering since the ala carte menu was discontinued a while back. Without the ability to choose from a wider and more reasonably priced menu selection, we chose to eat elsewhere in Middleburg during our stay.“

“We had a birthday party of 30 here and they were amazing! Food & service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We had lunch there yesterday so it was relatively quiet and very relaxing. Our server was very friendly and attentive and did not rush us. I had the mushroom soup which was incredibly delicious (and likely the best I've ever had), and then I had the Spring Risotto which was also fresh and delicious. My Mom had a cheeseburger which she said was very good and our friend had the meatloaf. He said the meatloaf was wonderful but he too loved the mushroom soup the best. Soooo good.“

“Looking for a great breakfast / lunch / dinner spot? Look no frother than the Purcellville Pub. Driving through the area around lunch time and saw a review about the Fish & Chips and had to stop and verify. And no doubt - great crispy Fish & Chips. 2 large filets with basket of fries. I was really, really good. We also tried the Barrel Burger and the BBQ sauce with crispy bacon and fried onions was very good as well. We left full bummed it’s a location we might only get to once. So glad we did.“

“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!“

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

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

“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!“

“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.“

“Walked in and seated at the bar. I look up and see all of this allocated bourbon. I see they have chicken fried steak (my favorite). I of course order that and it surpassed all my expectations. The biscuit was nice and fluffy, the chicken fried steak was made to perfection, throw on top of that the sausage gravy and I was in literal heaven. The service is some of the best I have ever had. If you have not tried Buford’s biscuits you need to!!! I can almost guarantee everything on the menu is amazing!!“

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

“This is a casual, sports bar type restaurant so we weren't expecting fine dining. However, we were pleasantly surprised with the good quality of the food. I rated the food 4 stars in comparison with other casual restaurants. From chicken wings, to nachos, to salads, everyone was pleased with a meal that was better than we expected. The only mis-step food-wise was somewhat rubbery chicken on the sheet pan nachos. I ended up picking those off. The service staff was busy but good. A manager was walking around making sure everyone was satisfied and that their orders were correct. I appreciated this as he seemed genuinely interested in making sure customers were happy. Shout-out to the bartender on 10/26—making some flavorful, balanced cocktails that didn't make me feel like I wasted my money. Fun atmosphere—I would eat here again!“

“Love Tarbender’s! Such a unique spot. Live music on Fri/ Sat, brunch on Sunday. What’s not to love!“

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

“Pizza is excellent. Great crust. Cheese steak is also perfect.“

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

“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.“

“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“

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“

“My favorite restaurant in Leesburg!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Stopped by The Local Cut in Purcellville for an early Saturday dinner after a day out and had a great experience! We were seated right away. I had Tony’s Bolognese but the real star was the double Smash Burger—so good I’ll be ordering it next time. Highly recommend!“

“Best bacon cheeseburger I’ve ever had! Highly recommended!!“

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

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

“We have started a 'best wings in Loudoun' journey recently and Coaches Corner has definitely made the top 5 list. To start, the wings are a good size and the way they cook them is how you want wings to be cooked. You can order 1lbs or 2lbs portions and fried is of course how you will order them (if you order wings that are grilled, you need to go crawl into a hole somewhere and stay there for eternity...bye). Let's talk texture: semi-crispy on the outside and moist, tender, meat on the inside. Perfection. A myriad of tantalizing sauce flavors are available for your choosing. The 'hot' and 'honey bbq' are both great choices and the right amount of sauce is applied to the wings post fry. You will find a great mix of flats and drums when you open the crinkly styrofoam container - would it be possible to order all flats or all drums? Who knows. Try it and get back to me. By the way, it looks like they are open until 2am on the weekend. Wowwee, that's good to know. Who stays open until 2am anymore? More bars and restaurants need to stay open until 2am. Anyways, get the wings, no regret will be had.“

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

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

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

“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.“

“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..“
