36 Best American Restaurants near Yorktown

“We always have a wonderful time at Riverwalk. My family and I always celebrate here for graduations, new jobs, anniversaries, and birthdays. I have celiac disease, and they always have plenty of gluten free options and are willing to accommodate. It really is difficult to find SAFE gluten free food in York County. FANTASTIC espresso martinis and love how cozy and coastal it feels in the indoor dining area. Food was delicious, huge portions, and I felt safe eating here!My husband and I came for our 4th wedding anniversary, and the manager, Brad, and our server, Corey, were wonderful. Brad is quite knowledgeable in the gluten free department. Good food, good service, and yummy options for the celiac community. THANK YOU Riverwalk! We will continue to dine here for many years to come.“

Update 4 September 2026:
The renovations / additions are great! I think it helps reduce it being crowded. One area they could improve upon is to get their broken fans fixed! It will help with the flies that swarm you when sitting at the outside tables. Or get those little table fans that scares the flies away.

One last word of advice, double check your bill when it gets busy.“

“We had the King Suite and the bed was very comfortable. The bedroom was big and so was the living room area. There is only one bathroom so our daughtet had to use the one in our room. Although the pull out couch was okay she preffered the roll away bed that they provided when asked. When you walk into your room there is a switch by the door that you must turn on to turn the bathroom lights on and off in the bathroom. The bathroom was a nice size with good lighting. The floor can be a little slippery when wet. It may have been the type of tile. The pool area was very nice and enjoyed. The lobby area is a nice size. Oh although you cant tell the King Suite door closes and locks. The staff was very friendly all the time. When ever we needed anything they were there to assist. Overall I enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Besides the one bathroom in the suite I would give 10 because of the confort. If continental breakfast was availablenit would have been 12“

Wheelchair accessibility: It is a medical clinic, so everything is accessible.“

“I had had a really bad dinner experience at another restaurant and came here for the first time. Kat was the bartender and made me a drink similar to an old fashion but better. And Karen showed me a game that really helped put me in a better mood.even met some of the regulars that played too. I appreciate both of them helping a stranger through a hard time and it’s so rare to find that type of kindness in people anymore. I hope they see this and know how much that meant and how much I appreciate both of them and I will be back. Everybody was so kind and welcoming.“
