38 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.“

The taco bowl with chicken is phenomenal and the spicy mango margarita is delicious!

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“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem, the menu has so many options and every item was amazing, the atmosphere was perfect for a nice dinner, prices were good, the chocolate espresso martini in particular was out of this world, and to top it all off our server Rick was the absolute best!! Will be coming back very soon!“

“I went there for lunch in hopes of something good, and they did not disappoint! I showed up less than ten minutes before they closed for lunch. I ended up getting the chicken with quinoa rice, green beans, and steamed carrots. I then turned around and saw the speed line with giant gyro pita sandwiches. If only my stomach could contain. Great great great!“

“Awesome service, drinks and food. The entire staff was super welcoming and very helpful!“

“great cozy place with wonderful junior burger, just the right size for me“

“First time there tonight and I really liked it! It was quiet and not stupid packed, the music was loud enough to hear but not too loud to talk over, the food was decent (I got a well-done patty melt with tots), and my tab was very reasonable. My mixed drinks were a little on the weaker side, but I think most bartenders exercise caution with anyone they don't know... I just moved here from across the country so I will probably make this my new hangout spot!“

“Big Ups to Jackie!! Best Bartender here in Poquoson. Kept them drinks coming every-time i was low!! Great food and awesome service and attitude! Come visit this lovely lady you will not be disappointed!!! Great everything!!“

“First time coming with my daughter. Food was very good got the catfish. Service was good and atmosphere was good . Only thing is that I subbed my sides but wasn't told it would cost more. One side I wanted the didnt have and if I known I would of just kept the side it came with. Other than that everything was good and definitely would go back. Heard good things about brunch so maybe I'll try that next.“

“MY WIFE & I COME FROM WISCONSIN TO EAT HERE 2-3 TIMES WHEN WE'RE IN VIRGINIA. ALWAYS A GOOD TIME, LIKE THE FOOD & THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE PLACE. SEE YOU NEXT TIME WE COME HERE TO VIRGINIA.“

“11/13/2022 Lunch with friends today. As always food was hot and cooked to our liking. Never disappointed. Today it was especially good. The Super Young Lady we had as a Server, her name was Rachel was an absolute pleasure!! All of us said the same thing. Attentive. Super Personality and just couldn’t have been any sweeter. We all brag about the food; but Young People like this deserve recognition and hopefully Management let’s her know how much we enjoyed the food, but she was the highlight of the meal. Excellent Job Young Lady!!“
