50 Best American Restaurants near Sammamish

“Visited for first time, August 29 2024. Great atmosphere, friendly staff. Ordered the fruity French toast. 3 big thick slices of bread, with fresh fruit and homemade whipped cream The bread only had egg wash on one side, as if they poured the egg on the flattop and set the bread on it, As these were thick slices, the rest of it was just dry bread. Not what we expected. We thought it would be dipped and covered in egg. The silverware is the basic stamped out cafeteria style utensils and takes away from the overall experience of this otherwise homey ambience.“

“Fantastic food and service. I will be going back soon. Some of the best food I have had in a long time at any restaurant. I use to be a chef and the food was cooked perfectly. This is a solid find to spend some time at for a great experience and well priced. They staff was very friendly and did not rush me at all. 5 ⭐“

“Our favorite local pub, many beers and some ciders on tap, and more. The menu expanded and improved since the kitchen upgrade. Grateful for a few vegan items on the menu like the shepherds pie and vegan burger. Warm, friendly service with a smile.“

“This is a good place to eat but make sure you double triple quadruple check your order. They almost always get at least one to two things wrong on my burger. It's usually minor but it's always something and I don't often catch it till I get home.“

“Love it. I will go back and recommend“

“May be one of my favorite places on Microsoft campus. Had great share platters and nice drinks. I recommend their creamsicle mocktail. Was very well suited for a low maintenance but well run happy hour/team event. Very helpful and accommodating staff.“

“Little known gem very worthwhile checking out. Super tasty menu items. Be sure to ask for a glass of their exclusive, custom-label Pancho Villa Cab (by Barrage Cellars).“

“I have always loved the Cut Shop! staff and ownership have always been wonderful. a couple employees have been undesirable but have gone. I will say i was sadden and my kids were disappointed when they did away with the scavenger hunt. that was a really cool and unique activity. So that was a bummer and them doing away with the mini corndogs.. bummer too“

“Highly recommend Fork & Spoke! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the service was prompt and the food was top notch! They had a specialty cocktail called “Garden Party” that was out of this world! The staff were very friendly and attentive. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Justin and his staff always make the members feel welcomed like family as you hear them greeting most of the restaurant by name and often knowledge of their preferred drink order. Love that they have changing weekly specials to keep it interesting and lovely seasonal dishes. My favorite burger on the Eastside is here and is a perfect pub juicy burger. This cozy meeting place is one of the reasons so many generations return to living in this neighborhood.“

“What a surprisingly great experience from a hotel restaurant. This is a restaurant in a Hilton Garden Inn. As far as hotel restaurants go, it was absolutely outstanding. I had the house salad and the Jambalaya. Both were very good. Service was quick, friendly, and accurate. Great portions, for reasonable prices. My server, Leeana, was a huge part of their success. She was outstanding. Thank you all for a great dinner after a long day on the road.“

“Well and Table was the first restaurant where I could eat because I have Celiac Disease. My favorite foods are burger, fries, turkey wings, cobbler, and root beer float. Well and Table is the best place. Heston, Age 6“

“Food is well worth the price. All the appetizers are large enough to be meals. Drinks are excellent. I ordered the old fashion.

The fillet minion I had last time was cooked medium rare just as desired and was melt in your mouth perfect texture.

I took my Mom for her birthday and we enjoyed every dish.“

“I walked in here in September 1982 thinking my shattered life of 15 years was over. Hazel who ran the cafe, a gruff but loving lady made me sit down and have a sandwich and milk. For the next 5 years they raised me, an irritating punk, showing love and understanding beyond measure, mentoring me in the life of recovery and spritual principles of AA until my fledgling wings let me fly on my own to other places of recovery and respite from the storms of life. It's barely changed, has great coffee now and much more food! A meeting is available nearly every hour in such variety and different people your sure to find your place in what will always be my true home! God bless you and thank you Hilltop, with all my heart ♥“

“This is the third time I have eaten at Cascades and it was absolutely delicious. I ate the rib eye steak while my wife had the steak frites. My son's had the chicken strips and the club sandwich and everyone absolutely loved their food. It was a highlight of our vacation and Muhammad our server was by far the kindest and most friendly customer service we had our entire trip.“

“I recommend everything. Such good food, the GF onion rings were over the top, and the old fashioned's are to die for! Yum😋“

“Was there with good friends this past weekend and the service and food was spectacular! Definitely stop in! Atmosphere is perfect! Will return soon. 👍“

“great food and beverages!! excellent experience!“

“Amazing food, wonderful service and a lovely atmosphere! Nice place for romantic dinner or bring a group. I'll be back!“

“Atmosphere is amazing, food is just as good! I really like this little hole-in-the-wall type restaurant. I had the Baja Fish Tacos and they were flavorful and very nicely sized. They came with your choice of fries too and I highly recommend the sweet potato ones.“

“It was a rainy day and my BF and I had planned to have lunch together the day before. So we decided to go the Blazing Onion as I had always wanted to try it.
Being vegetarian is sometimes hard to find a place that has options for burgers and this place has a few options which is great. I ended up getting the Impossible burger and onion petals on the side and my BF got the Blazing Onion burger and fries. He also ordered us an order of mozzarella sticks. For drinks we had water and I got a Blueberry Lime Fizz and he got Raspberry Lemonade. The water had a lemon slice which was a nice touch.
I have to say that the mozzarella sticks were delicious and cheesy and the marinara sauce was pretty good too. The burgers came and it was amazing!! I ate it all in record time lol. The bun was perfectly toasted as well. I had no complaints on the burger. The onion petals were ok. When I usually see something say beer battered I never taste the beer, this you could. The only issue was they were soggy.
My BF enjoyed his food and the drinks were very good too. Service was great as well. I will go to Blazing Onion again, it was really good. But what made it stellar was the person I shared the experience with, he is amazing.“

“We love this place and haven’t had anything we didn’t like!! Great food. However….. make sure you dress warm… they have blankets you can throw over you but it is still pretty chilly in there.“

“The food was delicious and the service was great. My kids and I loved it! We will definitely stop the next time we are nearby.“

“My favorite the one with pineapple on it ! Delicious 🤤! Service is really good ! We have a wonderful time with kids ! 😎 Definitely five stars ✨! 👍“

“First time at Palmers East did not dissappoint.“

“We are from out of town and were looking for a little spot to grab a Bloody Mary before we start a long day of baseball. We stumbled this place and glad we did. Great service from Jacob, excellent Bloody Mary and delish hot puffs 🤤 We will definitely be back when we are in the area again!“

“I am like the food,fresh and delicious.“

“A Great Return to Purple

I hadn’t been to Purple in Woodinville for a while, and this visit was a reminder of why it’s such a solid spot. I used the In Kind app—which automatically made an OpenTable reservation—and I’d honestly recommend both for a smoother experience. We sat upstairs, which is quieter and has a really nice vibe.

Service was excellent from start to finish. We kicked things off with the gorgonzola-stuffed dates (still one of the best appetizers around), followed by a well-made cocktail. For dinner, the burger was spot on—perfectly cooked and flavorful. The surprise of the night was a red wine from New York that paired shockingly well. Who knew NY wine could be that good?

All around, a great night and an easy recommendation.“

“Fun atmosphere!! Excellent food!! Excellent service!!“

“I loved their food & it was my first time eating there!!!!“

“Really good spot to have a beer, cocktail, appetizer and/or dinner.“

“We had the rehearsal dinner for my son's wedding here and it was absolutely perfect! Great service, great food and everyone left well fed and happy. It doesn't get any better than that.“

“Can we talk about the onion rings. I make the trip to Malarky's SPECIFICALLY for them. Generous serving, yet, have no intention of sharing them, so we always get two or three! Fun dive-ish bar (in a good way) feel, where people like to pile in to watch a game and get pitchers 🍺 It's fun if you're not looking for some pinkies up atmosphere. Friends. Noise. Food. Fun.“

“Attended an event on 6/28 catered by Barking Frog. Their set-up is clean and professional looking (you WANT their food truck in your parking lot); their staff is courteous and friendly; they offered a diverse and interesting menu; and our plates were prepared quickly. Oh, the food... top notch! I had the turkey club, my daughter had the mac & cheese... both with their crispy, delicious french fries. AMAZING!“

“My husband and I go here for breakfast sometimes once a week!! we absolutely LOVE the staff. they treat you like family! it's always so wonderful to be acknowledged with a wave a huge smile and sometimes a hug!! The food is pretty darn good too. it's actually gotten even better this year! Also we are sooooooo happy to see K back! 😁😁 We love you guys!!!“

“Fun place but very very noisy ! Hard to hear. Food was excellent. I had their fall regular pot pie & arugula salad, excellent with hazelnuts. Pot pie was delicious but very black peppery! Also had ravioli…. Reportedly excellent.“

“ordered over the phone one three piece cod and one order of waffle fries as well as the kids meal cheese burger. Got home and discovered two cheese burgers ( not including condiments requested) and no no waffle fries. Added my tip to this order as I usually try to do but maybe next time , ??? No reciept given and I thought i'ts all good ?????“

“Still the same great Steve's it's always been!
Steve was actually there this morning and it was great seeing him and being able to say hello!
I/we haven't been there in a few years to be honest, but it is still a great local place for OUTSTANDING food and great drinks!
Our waitress, Brittany was playfully sassy and a GREAT waitress and provided EXCELLENT service too!
Thanks you guys!

“This is a long overdue review. We like to go to the DeLille tasting room and then step over for dinner at this place. Their food is very tasty and their service is awesome. We went there and happened to sit at the bar. Both Lucio and Cole were great, Cole's recommendations for dinner were amazing. If you are in the area we highly recommend you stop by to enjoy this great restaurant“

“Excellent food, drinks, and entertainment. No cover!“

“the food is good, the atmosphere is a great place to meet with friends for dinner and drinks! Their Happy Hour menu is great too!“

“This place offers a rare Latin breakfast menu item called Migas and oh man is it good. The wait staff are all friendly and your cup is never empty. The atmosphere is like a cozy small diner/family kitchen and it is relaxing and laid back. And as a rare tea drinker, I can say that while they charge the same as other places for tea, they serve super high quality English breakfast tea, which was delightful. I AM SO GLAD THEY ARE BACK in Issaquah!!“

“Any steak…. Crab cakes, although have been reduced in size. UFO, halibut stuffed with crab was the best thing on the menu…. However not available anymore…. Hopefully the halibut stuffed with crab will come back on the menu soon….“
