20 Best American Restaurants in Fort Atkinson

“Our visit in May was to say the least disappointing. But Sean reached out to me to discuss the issues. He asked me to give them another chance. So we did last night. To say the least this visit was exceptional. Our server was outstanding, the food was hot and excellent, and even his Bad Dad jokes were good. All in all we had a great time and we will be back! Thankyou to Sean and his staff for a great experience! FIVE STARS!“

“This fish fry was perfect, served with choice of potatoes and coleslaw or applesauce and bread. The waitress was great, she let me try the clam chowder before I ordered it. We went home with a bowl for later it was amazing. Reasonable prices, good food and great service“

“This was one of my go-to places to eat for a while, as it was quick, easy, and the food was always good. They also have a selection of different soups per day which I really enjoy, and the cookies are my favorite. However my last couple experiences were not so great. I’ve been met with cold food the past couple orders, (I always pickup at schedule pickup or I even come a few minutes earlier.) Tonight my order tasted like it sat out for an hour, and on a few other occasions my food has just been room temp upon pickup. I’ve never had a bad experience dining in, but for the nights I want to stay home, please do better!“

“I enjoyed White Christmas great and yummy food loved the Winter wonderland drink loved the actors and actresses spectacular wonderful waitress Callie I love the Fireside Happy Holdays to the staff and the Klopcic family, may God bless you all!“

“Awesome food, awesome staff, cool atmosphere, a little tight, but who cares.

They care about quality ingredients a lot of pride in locally sourced where possible. They care about their customers and you will individually feel seemingly whomever serves you. They care about their community and shows with execution of Paddy's Paws and a variety of other support.

The collective we in this small town of Fort Atkinson are lucky to have them.“

“My friend just got married this weekend at Riverstone and I can’t say enough good things! The venue was beautiful and the all the staff were outstanding. Dominque and the General Manger were amazing in making sure everything was set up the way the Bride wanted, as well as keeping everything running smoothly. Highly recommend this venue.“

“My fiancé and I just dined here for dinner after having to spend a few days in the hospital, and to say we were impressed would be an understatement! The food was delicious, the drinks were good, and the service was great too! Would highly recommend anything on the menu honestly!“

“Love breakfast at Scotties! Look forward to going there whenever we get to Fort Atkinson!“

“I've tried every gyro in town, and this was my favorite. The broasted chicken was everything you'd hope it would be. The roasted potatoes were both unique and simply just right. We will definitely order again.“

“my husband and Iwere visiting the Fort Atkinson/Whitewater area for a concert at UW-Whitewater, spent the night in Fort Atkinson, and decided to get lunch with a college friend of mine (I'm a proud UWSP alumni) before heading back home to Illinois. Brock's did not disappoint! Their cheese curds were amazing, my husband really enjoyed his prime rib sandwich (so flavorful and juicy!), and my wrap was quite tasty. my college friend enjoyed her burger and I LOVED the homemade potato chips. We will definitely be back once it gets warmer out as we'd love to explore the area a little more when it's not so cold and windy! oh, yes- the prices are awesome, too!“

“Amazing service, delicious food, we will definitely be back! Thank you“

“Had a poor experience at Thirsty Whale and decided to head to Island Bar & Grill. The service was fast and their team was very patience when we placed a 8 person take out. The young woman server/host with blue eyeliner was super helpful and great- everyone was happy with their food!“

“The food was very good and the price reasonable for this type of specialty foods. The location on the lake is very nice, but is easy to see from the bar area only. Staff was good, but had a lot of tables to serve at least when we were there. She did a nice job otherwise and others were there to keep your water filled and take away plates. Nice they acknowledged our anniversary too! I would come back again for sure.“

“We love Sunset! Staff is always friendly, and many of the bartenders make it a point to remember faces and drink orders.

Food is always great, and the atmosphere is wonderful. I love their live music performances, and they have a great outdoor space.“

“If you love small friendly gathering places, live music in a quiet setting, and delicious healthy food, you will love Cafe Carpe. The historic building has a gorgeous bar and original art on the walls. In warm weather, you can eat on the screened back porch overlooking the Rock River. Musicians love to play in the intimate listening room beyond the bar.“

“Tonight was my friends birthday and we all went out in fort to celebrate! We bar hopped for awhile and were consistently met with a bartender who was less than thrilled to see us come in. We last minute decided to see if Fat Boyz was open before ending the night and IT WAS THE BEST! We were greeted the second we walked in by a very enthusiastic and wonderful bartender, Mel. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make us feel important and have a good time. We never felt like we were not welcome or overstaying our visit. She truly has such a wonderful presence and outstanding customer service. We were all beyond impressed and grateful for her. She managed the bar that was filled with people with ease and kept everyone safe and happy. I cannot express enough how wonderful she was and I’m so happy our night got to end with such wonderful company. 💕“

“We went early (older people) for a fish fry. Excellent food. Couldn't finish my meal. Which is rare! We all went home with boxes.
Upcharge on choice of potato with meal if you want other than fries.
Was quiet when we went, excellent if you are trying to avoid noise and bustling. Beautiful place.“

“Good was excellent! Priced very reasonably.“

“love it. I would so recommend the gyro“

“Just went for my birthday dinner and had awesome service and DELICIOUS food & drinks!! We will definitely be back!“
