50 Best American Restaurants near Kingston

“Best veggie burger I've ever had in a restaurant. Is it made in house?“

“It is always good, that is why we keep going back!

Vegetarian options: They have a beyond beef burger and fries that are vegan

Kid-friendliness: It's not too crowded so we can always find a seat that is private or outside.“

“We had the cob salad tonight it was so fresh and delicious!“

“Yo. I work here, so I am naturally biased. That being said, this is a GREAT place to work. I am treated well, respected, and HAPPILY employed. If that sort of thing is important to you (it is to me, I feel 100% different about a business if their employees are noticeably happy to be there), now you know. I really like the food here. My shift meal is one of my favorite things about this gig. Not trying to be SHILL Silverstein over here...I wouldn't be saying it if it wasn't how I felt. Come get fed!“

“The best dinner we've had in years! We shared the Rib-eye , WOW I will be dreaming about those little potatoes too..“

“Oh how we love this wonderful place! Just did a Mother’s Day stop by and picnicked like royalty. Highly recommend to anyone of any particular taste, you will find that moment of bliss all seek, Mmmmm! Thoughtful fresh ingredients, carefully crafted.“

“I have been coming here for over 20 years : when I lived in Seattle and when I visit. We came today after going to MoPOP. We wanted a chill atmosphere with guaranteed good food. I always order the Reuben or soup. Today, they had vanilla cider. So wonderful!

They have GF Macrina Ancient Grains Bread! I haven’t had an actual
Sandwich in a restaurant in ages, but today, it was not only GF it was delicious! So good I ordered one to take home.

Go for the good food, good atmosphere, very friendly service and cozy feeling.

Parking: Be sure to plan to walk a little. It’s difficult to tell when parking will be available near the restaurant. We don’t mind walking a few blocks. It’s worth every step.“

“Extraordinary food. Great service!“

“It’s a decent neighborhood restaurant. Although recent experience was not stellar.“

“I rate Reuben sandwiches across the PNW. I'd give this Reuben sandwich a 90/100. It lost points for sandwich size and presentation mostly. But overall it's exactly what you'd expect from a Reuben sandwich. The fries side had really good texture. I also had a cup of the tomato bisque and unfortunately what they're calling a bisque is just a sugary marinara sauce. In order to call it a bisque it would have to have a smooth creamy texture usually from adding cream and rice then immersion blended to a smooth even texture. Even if it was just called a soup vs a bisque I'd say it was a fail. I really hope they either learn to make a bisque correctly or pull it from the menu.“

“Absolutely epic source for all thing’s DELICIOUS! We are obsessed with the Pate en Croute, meat pies, every flavor sausage, and their perfectly aged cuts of locally sourced meat!“

“We had our son’s rehearsal dinner here and the service was excellent! Drinks and appetizers in the garden and dinner inside. It was a wonderful event and everyone had a great time. Many said they would return at some time for dinner. We planned this out of state and Lynn answered all of are questions quickly. We could not have had this type of personalized service in a typical restaurant.“

“The quirky and quaint Hansville Grocery is the hub of Hamsville.Ironically, not the best place for groceries, but if you want an espresso, ice cream cone, cold drink, books by local authors, or even a full meal, this is the place! The staff is friendly and attentive and it is full of good small town vibes. Definitely worth a stop.“

“Awesome place (with awesome food options) and an awesome bar (with awesome drink options) that's connected to an awesome bowling alley (that sometimes includes live music performances on the weekends) both of which include awesome staff who are always friendly and professional but not to an annoying or fake degree, they're all just legitimately cool people there.

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs on any doors, all entrances are accessible by wheelchairs and all parts of the venue are connected on the interior.“

“Great lunch, friendly people in a beautiful setting. What more can one hope for? Also, best burger on the Island.“

“I’ve had one of the best fine dining experiences in Seattle here at Copine, even better than Canlis.

Seattle cuts loose to a lot of fine dining experiences, especially a lot of the restaurants here do not pay attention to detail, or service usually comes subpar. I would say Copine really focuses on the basics of making an experience for you, so it becomes a meaningful experience.

First and foremost, they have a great understanding of French cuisine. Everything tastes very delicate and well thought out. I definitely loved the steak and their meat dishes. I think the chef has way better understanding of cooking meat rather than seafood, so as someone who loves meat, this was an enjoyable meal.

How can I forget about their service! Their staff was thoroughly trained and very knowledgeable. I really loved all the wine pairings and hearing the thoughts behind. Service was above and beyond, and everyone was so kind to make my birthday dinner something special.

There are 2 fine dining restaurants I would recommend from now on: Copine and Cafe Juanita.“

“for me, Rays is my favorite restaurant ever. everything is at the top of perfection“

“This review pertains to a private event we booked at Brimmer & Heeltap. The event was for a college in the midwest to meet with alumni in Seattle. Emma was great to work with to plan our event, especially when our registration exceeded our expectations. They allowed us to use the patio as well for a short time until we were ready to be seated for the program. The food suggestions were wonderful and received many compliments from our guests. Dana took care of us during the event and was personable, helpful to our guests and especially great at continuing to be attentive during our program without being a distratction.
It is a little scary to plan an event long-distance with only pictures to decide if the space is a good fit for the event. Emma and the staff were a huge part in its success.“

“hands down best food i’ve had in a decade plus! The hospitality was on point ! Cant wait for a second visit !!“

“Amazing staff and Tommy Patrick is a wonderful host.“

“I get my Sullys To Go because I don’t like people. The food is amazing every single time! it’s like you were sitting there, but without all the people to bother you. The food is great and the portions are large. This is just a hidden gem so don’t tell too many of your friends.“

“My mom and I stopped by for a quick lunch and found their environment somewhat vintage and charming. You get to enjoy the breeze off the water, outdoor seating, fresh air, and friendly employees. A simple menu that is tasty, albeit minimal.“

“The fresh grapefruit vodka — a real thirst quencher“

“I don't know how else to say it, but this place is solid.
The beers are cold and tasty, the food is amazing, and the staff... They are the main reason I keep coming back.
I'm not sure who does the hiring there, but keep it up.“

“The seafood omelet was very tasty with lots of shrimp, crab and scallops. My brother enjoyed the veggie omelet and biscuits. Decent coffee too.“

“Stopped in with a friend to play some pinball on Wednesday 8/23/23. Pinball map was pretty accurate regarding pins on location, and the games we played were in good condition, spaced out well, and most had cupholders or tables close by. There were the requisite 40"-50" TVs playing sports set up around the bar, but they were not the center of attention - this isn't a sports bar. There were 4-5 pool tables, and all were busy by the time we left for the Ice Box around 9 PM. Stiff well drinks, a decent selection of beer, etc., and decent prices for the area. I like the square wooden-framed ~25'x25' area around the bar, away from the pinball and pool - it was kind of cozy and they had a corner with a mic set up for...music or karaoke or stand-up, or something else I guess. New owners revamped this place in late 2021 or early 2022, and they kept the dive bar atmosphere, but really cleaned the place up. No yucky smells, and I didn't feel like I had to wash my hands after I left. I know that's not a high bar, but I what I mean was that it was a pleasant and unpretentious place to hang out. Didn't try any food - maybe next time. Sorry, no pictures this time!“

“Alice makes a wicked Paloma!! Go find out yourself!“

“Our favorite date night hang!“

“As a vegetarian this is my go to spot when I wanna treat myself to a yummy door dash meal. Always get the sweet potato fries. I love that they have so many options!! I’m sad the other location closed, and I wish I could order their “dine in only” menu options as delivery /:“

“Because they let the regulars just be regulars —“

“Had a wonderful breakfast here. The food was delicious and service was quick. I loved the quirky mismatched tables, chairs and dishes. It gives a more personal atmosphere.“

“Great customer service, the best French Toast I've ever tasted, yummy buffalo chicken sandwich, and great dessert in a friendly, inclusive environment! 🏳️‍🌈“

“We have found this to be our favorite spot when we hang out at the waterfront. Drinks and food are fantastic and the staff are always friendly and easy going! Totally recommend all their food especially the fried scallops. 10/10“

“Dang. I just ate at Giddy Up and I did not expect the food to be that good. I met some coworkers there for a bite and drink and thought the food would be run-of-the-mill burgers and beer. Not only was the food extremely good, but that craft cocktails were awesome! Try the chicken sandwich - you won't regret it.“

“My favorite breakfast spot in Seattle ❤️“

“Beautiful, lofty space to enjoy the sun or the rain in an upscale but unpretentious atmosphere. Distraction free (no televisions or QR codes). Top notch draft beer and loved the sandwiches -- my Italian Canadian husband said they reminded him of his mom's! If that's not a compliment I don't know what is.“

“The burgers are awesome! 💞“

“We came here in a whim on a Friday night. The bartender was super nice and made me a great manhattan. What surprised us was also the food - we just expected regular bar food and were just hoping for something decent. But whoever was the cook Friday night, you are a master of the fryer. The fries were THE crispiest and most perfect fries I’ve had in years. The mac and cheese bites were so good, the mac and the cheese inside also tasted high quality and not like velveeta. As big foodies we were just trying to satisfy our hunger and get some food in our stomachs before having a cocktail, but we were really impressed at how delicious it was.“

“Stopped in on my way to the Fisherman's Terminal and what a wicked cool place! Very friendly staff and great prices. Definitely good vibes and lovely conversation. The owner James is so personally and you can tell he takes so much pride in his business. ❤️“

“5 stars simply isn't enough when rating the Fish. Since moving to Seattle from the Southeast, they've become our friends and family away from home. The food is great, and it's one of the only nearby places with draught Guinness! We've watched big games, celebrated birthdays, and many other memorable times at Thirsty Fish. If you choose to stop in, chances are you'll see me there!“

“We had a wonderful meal last night and our server, Reagan was terrific. I come from many many years of restaurant/italian food experience and was very pleased with the experience at Saltoro.“

“Dog friendly and food was so good.“

“The Philly Cheese steak sandwich was hands down the best in the State of Washington! Tre's Philly Cheese steak sandwich I will travel for over and over again! Well flavored, put together perfectly and the love was in the meat, in the sandwich it self! I enjoyed talking to the staff, they are very good people, that make you feel welcomed! I truly enjoyed being there!“

“Overall solid! Will go again [Original] Overall solid! Will go again“

“We we’re greeted promptly and quickly seated which is rare these days. Our waiter was Andrew and he also attended to us promptly and was kind from the start.My wife had the Nutella crepes and biscuits with peppered gravy. She rarely will finish her serving but did this time. (I helped with a biscuit) I had the lumberjack omelette with Pelican special potatoes. I’ll say one thing about the food. We’ve been here 6 months and that’s the best meal I’ve had including 3 of the local steakhouse’s. We will return, and my wife left a generous tip! Kudos to the chef.“

“I had an excellent experience recently, as it was my first time actually going there. The board game selection covered a little bit of every niche. The abundance of game rooms for family and kid games, card games, board games, and tabletop games was impressive. They are definitely dedicated to the gaming experience. The staff I encountered was on point with courteous and professional attitude the entire time. I will definitely be visiting again.“

“Always a great drink here!“

“Went for a UFC fight and was impressed with atmosphere and service.“

“I have Celiac Disease and it means so much to me to be able to eat somewhere with a dedicated gluten free kitchen. The food was excellent and the staff were extremely friendly. The owner came and talked to us for a bit and the atmosphere in general was amazing. You can tell how much the owner and staff care about what they’re doing and about your experience. Thank you for being a safe and delicious place for me to eat! We will be coming back!“

“I go to Chocmo often to meet with friends and enjoy catching up over yummy drinks and food. The atmosphere is so inviting, has plenty of space and comfy seating for long chats. What I appreciate the most is the later hours of being open until 7:00, most if not all other coffee shops in Poulsbo close by 5:00. Thank you Chocmo!“
