50 Best American Restaurants near Grafton

“Celebrated my daughter’s birthday with 17 people…Tim was outstanding with reacting to us just stopping in with no reservations! He was able to accommodate us with the longest table in the bar area and also assigned Avery as our bartender and order taker. Plenty of appetizers and pizza’s to boot! Tim also tossed in a round of shots for all! Very impressed, all with a full dining room and never skipped a beat. Definitely will be back as well as highly recommend!!!“

The food and drinks will bring me back. Had Norb's steak sandwich, with fried onions and Mushrooms, Cheese and Bacon. SUPER!!“

“We had a party of 25 for a private 70th bd party at the Delafield location. Great communication from my 1st contact, great waitstaff, food and drinks. We were not rushed and enjoyed a perfect experience. Thank you, Delafield Water Street Brewery.“

“What a great evening! We had a group of nine, we called for reservations and were seated early. Outstanding service by Mary our wait staff! She was very attentive and a joy! Our food. The best! Members of our group tried all the Friday night offerings plus the Mahi and cauliflower mashed! Very tasty! Especially the seafood chowder which was velvety smooth and delicious!. Bonus …I had the opportunity to talk with the owners about this journey they are on! Check out this marvelous restaurant for a taste treat. Five stars!“

“Loved the vibe and the small menu. It was very cute and cozy. It is always nice to see clearly marked gluten free options. The Fish was fantastic and paired with my wine well. Thank you for having me!

“This "hole in the wall" bar is a must stop. I love visiting bars like this because of the community they provide. I was welcomed by the locals and had great conversation through my visit.The area is out in the country and can be tricky to find. Once I arrived, there was plenty of street parking as well as a lot in the back The inside was charming with a vintage vibe. Drinks were strong and their menu is lengthy. I ordered a cup of the soup which was styled after the Reuben sandwich. The corned beef was excellent. The soup is creamy and flavorful. I have tried to stop by again but they are only open Tuesday through Thursday. I wish I had checked the menu it because the reviews online show a fish fry but I'm not sure if that's available daily since they're closed on Friday? I hope you find out soon!“

“Great place to eat! They were amazing with our group of 40. Food is absolutely amazing and it’s our 3rd trip here. Amber“

“Lobster 🦞 night was so delicious“

“DEFINITELY coming back here, the food was really good, and we didn't have to wait long. everyone was so friendly and helpful the view is beautiful. we'll see you next time were in town thanks again Jen for the wonderful service today.“

“Stopped in recently for the first time and had the crispy chicken sandwich. It was the best chicken sandwich I have ever had. Crispy, juicy and hot - served on a toasted brioche bun with fresh lettuce, tomato and a creamy mayonnaise. The Kettle Chips were perfect. Good price and great service. You can tell they care about what they do. Looking forward to trying the meatball sub.“

“I visited Twisted Willow for the first time this past weekend while I was in town. Their service and food was exceptional! The inside was beautiful with a welcoming and friendly atmosphere! I would 100% recommend to anyone who is in town.“

“Love this place, staff are class.“

“I was here for the first time last week and loved it. Great food and wonderful staff. Can’t wait for the new hours and daily specials!“

“For DECADES, the Gerndt Extended Family has patronized and enjoyed getting together at Family Table. It was my Parents' favorite place to go and they were very regular customers there. When in town and since I moved back here from Ioea to help care for my parents in their last years, they lived to 95 with Alzheimers, up until the very end I took them to Family Table where we were always treated very well. We especially love the portions having another meal or two to take home, and previously free desserts with the meal which understandably due to the economy even many years ago, that bonus was stopped. But we still love there dessert assortments with me loving their Strawberry Cheeseake! My daughter and I especially carry on our Family Tradition at Family Table, getting together with my son and his wife, my sisters, my nieces, friends. We would love to see them open again on Sundays as it was a great place to go after Church. Hopefully they can get staff to open Sundays again. Even during the Pandemic we loved the way they all learned and properly wore their masks as we continued to patronize Family Table using their carry-out, especially their Friday Night Fish Fries which are spectacular!!! Today, my sister and her husband are here from Lake of the Ozarks near Camden, MO, and where did sister invite us to meet? Yup. Family Table! Great Food, Reasonable Prices, Large Portions, Excellent Service, Wonderful, Comfortable Relaxing. Quaint Atmosphere. I had the Pork Chops Special, w Pork Chops fried covered in mushroom onions gravie meal which included my Baked Potato with Butter and Sour Cream, Salad, and Corn. Super Delicious!!! Every one else's meals were delicious as well. Ehen my Dad and Mom passed away, i told the Manager and staff and they remembered them well and would miss them. I have not been able to frequent the Family Table for several months due to medical issues, but as things get better I/we will be back for sure on a regular basis. Thank you Family Tanle Management and Staff! Great Timrs! I don't think there's a booth or table that we have not sat at through the decades.“

“I ate at Siebert Dining Hall for 4 years & was NEVER left unsatisfied. The food quality was wonderful & the service was even better. Gary & his team were extremely hard working and our sincere effort to make sure our needs were always met. Thank you for the wonderful food and service during such significant years! God bless you, Siebert Dining Hall.“

“This was our first visit to the restaurant. We were out of town for the night and wasn't sure where to eat. This was kind of a celebratory night, we had been married for one month. Patty was our waitress and she was simply amazing! When she asked what we were up to and told her she congratulated us and even asked to see some pictures. Our food was delicious. I had the filet mignon and my husband had a burger. Also deserving of a mention was the white chocolate cheesecake we shared for dessert. It was to die for! Great food and great service, we will definitely be back in the future🙂“

“Surprisingly good. Made a reservation just to try a new fish fry so we went to 8900 Bar & Bistro. Easy parking for a Friday night. We were warmly greeted, staff were very friendly and attentive. The fish fry was extremely good and this restaurant offers combinations so I tried the cod and shrimp. The serving size was huge for the money, I actually made two meals out of this. Everything was perfectly cooked. Now I want to try some of their other menu items. Seating was very comfortable. Great value for the money. Will go back to try other menu items.“

“Thank you, George Webb, for the free burger today due to the Milwaukee Brewers winning 12 in a row. I felt that the people in the long line were kind enough, but I didn't here people saying thank you for putting this together. I do appreciate the efforts of the staff, and I can't thank you enough for keeping the tradition alive.“

“My cousin, son and I had the pleasure of dining at Pliers Full Circle Restaurant last Saturday, July 23rd. We all ordered the prime rib special and it was just that, SPECIAL. Haven't had that good a cut of prime rib for years......... Oh, the staff was very good and attentive to our needs. Definitely will return on our next trip to Port Washington.“

“First time visiting. The specialty juices are amazing. The food was hot and delicious. We loved it. Will definitely return when we are in the area.“

“I went into the drive thru and ordered a decent amount of food for one person, I thought it would take a few minutes, but I immediately got my food and a smile from the workers. The food was great, I have no complaints and would recommend this Culvers to anyone.“

“Was in Port Washington for a short weekend and one morning stopped in for a breakfast at the Beacon . It is part of the hotel on the ground floor . It was fairly busy for a breakfast but we were seated immediately no wait . Staff seemed a bit backed up but they did a good job and quickly took our order . Food is good . I wasn’t too hungry so a basic avocado toast with a side of fruit and coffee is all I needed . Tasted good . There is a parking lot adjacent to the restaurant/ hotel which is a plus .“

“This is a great place! The food is outstanding. The atmosphere is basic but very welcoming. The staff is out of this world...love the food and always recommend.“

“Thank you for your donation to the west bend Wildcats wrestling club!!“

“Great food, great beer, and great service! Dan was very friendly and has a great personality!“

“Family owned business that takes care of their customers. They're always patient with me and remember each of my little side requests. They let you call ahead for pick up, too!! Most authentic Chicago dog in MKE I have tasted - coming from a Chicago born - and - raised person.“

“Today I hit Java Dock right at a crazy busy time of their morning, but I can’t say enough about the quick service for my coffee and my lunch! Thanks for the great service Java Dock crew…you guys rock!!!“

“We assembled family from out of town to celebrate my brother and SIL's 43rd wedding anniversary. We ordered several small plates to serve as appetizers for our group of 6. Plates emptied while we oood and ahhhed each delectable choice. Entrees were just as enjoyable. Cocktails spot on and a few desserts made it around far sampling. Servers were outstanding and the ambiance, relaxed. We were there on a Wednsday, reservations are recommended. Some folks dining outside, enjoying one of the few comfortable evenings left in Wisconsin. Will definitely return as well as share the experience with others!“

“Best FISH!! Broiled fish sandwich is my favorite, so much so that I rarely even try anything else. Next time, I'll try something "new to me," promise!“

“We went tonight for dinner and our service was amazing! From the service to the fast kitchen staff to our friendly waitress! We have eaten hear 1 other time and it’s been top notch both times! Keep up the amazing great job Anvil pub.. can’t wait til next time we are in town! Ny husband and I started with the cedarberg salad that we split and had the pesto pastas and vodka cream pasta with chicken .. both were awesome and so much flavor. We ordered and within 10 min got our food and all the tables were busy ! Great service and wonderful food with great prices! One of a kind romantic atmosphere, great food and friendly service..“

“The food is consistently outstanding—fresh, flavorful, delicious. Try the soup! You won't be disappointed. The drinks are strong, beautifully presented, and the bartenders truly know their craft.
What really sets The White Rabbit apart is the vibe: friendly, fun, and community-driven. They host great events, always make guests feel included, and the service is top-notch every single visit.We go... often.... and LOVE. IT.“

“Love the chicken Caesar salad!! Katy is the absolute best and makes the best drinks!“

“After a HORRIFIC night going to 2 restaurants prior (1. Was a hour+ wait & 2. was the WORST food we have ever been served in a restaurant leaving with only eating 2 bites.) We decided to stop at In Between the Greens on our way home in hopes to just eat SOMETHING for our date night before going home to get kids to bed. It was a busy Friday night and our wait for a table was maybe 10 minutes. Our waitress was quick, attentive, & the sweetest women! (Thank you Carrie for turning our night around!) the food was phenomenal as always! We highly recommend the Reuben or the Grilled chicken BLT wrap! Atmosphere is upbeat and pretty family friendly!“

“Love Foxtown. Great, warm, comfortable, atmosphere. Really appreciate the extra events they do for children and families over the holidays and Halloween. So so much fun and so well done!“

“First time there. Great location, atmosphere, food and we had a wonderful sever!! Almost didn’t stay due to very rude bartender when we entered! That aside; glad we stayed.“

“Fun local bar. Cheap tap beer!“

“We come here fairly often, usually for their excellent wings and burgers. This time we thought we'd try their Friday fish fry. My wife had the pan-fried walleye (huge!) and I had the deep-fried perch (5 generous pieces). Both entrees were delicious. The potato pancakes were a very good side dish, better than a lot of other potato pancakes I've had elsewhere. Service was attentive and the price was very reasonable.“

“This is a great casual bar & gathering place. \nThe back dining room offers a quiet area to enjoy a bite.\nWe tried the garlic cheese curds for our appetizer & they were out of this world. The coating was so light & tasty.\nFor our main choices we had cod fish tacos & shrimp tacos, both were very good.“

“When I saw the post for Thanksgiving pies, I asked for one not listed. Daily Baking Company not only accepted the challenge to make one they hadn’t made before but also made an AMAZING pie (it was cran-apple, and I’m keeping the last slice 🤣). Very grateful for the extra effort, the great customer service, and the delicious pie! I’d definitely buy this or others in the future. Highly recommend!“

“I ordered Door Dash- and even after the drive, the food was hot and fresh. The Veggie Rodeo Burger was quite possibly the best veggie burger I’ve ever had- and I’ve been a vegetarian for 34 years. Delivery food and the onion ring in the burger was still crispy! Well done, Burger Den!“

“Great atmosphere! Great staff! Great food! Always feels like some magic must be in the air! Unique and worth the drive!“

“Back in March, of this year, with one day to go visiting family in Grafton, we happened upon Port Washington’s Toucan Restaurant. We wished we had discovered Toucan much sooner. Come April, we managed to stop in four times! What a pleasure! The food and custard offerings are excellent and the prices highly competitive. “Sul” is a great chef in preparing both Middle East and American taste delights. Jackie, among her other duties, is a most cordial hostess. With no disrespect intended for the other more well known custard venues in the area, Toucan and their unique custard creations, in our opinion, surpass them. And the young folks employed at the facility are really kind and helpful. Even the atmosphere is such that we noticed customers seem to enjoy chatting with strangers to the area like us. Toucan is such a great addition to our favorite Wisconsin town, Port Washington. - Sue and Jim, Smyrna, TN“

“hire some bartenders with a personality, who know how to engage in conversation with folks.“

“Came in 2/16/24 with group of 7. We all loved our food - especially the shrimp appetizer with Asian slaw! Our drinks were wonderful, and we loved our bartender, Tucker, along with all the other staff. I asked if they had stuffed blue cheese olives for my martini and they didn’t have any but made some for me!! We’ll definitely be returning.“

“Everything we ate was fresh & tasty, Except the chicken soup was way too salty for my taste. Service was great & there’s custard!!“

“Normally we have good luck at the Chancery. Not the case yesterday. I went with my six year old, clearly a “kid” but the seating host didn’t give us a kids menu. I had to go ask for one. I ordered the California wrap with no onions or avocado because I have some food sensitivities. It came with no onions or tomato. I didn’t realize this until I was about halfway through eating it. Thankfully it’s just sensitivity and not an allergy. The cheese on my son’s grilled cheese was barely melted. I could clearly see where each slice of cheese was placed. When the server brought our bill, he did not bring a pen to sign my slip. A bunch of little things but they added up. Hopefully our next experience will be better.“

“came through the drive thru and was told to park and wait with a number, which is pretty normal for culvers. after waiting for a while (10-15ish mins) & seeing other cars come and go my boyfriend decided to go inside to check on the order. he found out it got lost somehow, but the guy working the counter was extremely sympathetic and kind about it. he made sure we got our order as quickly as possible and gave us a few coupons for the trouble. mistakes happen, but great customer service really does make up for it. he didn’t catch the employee’s name, but said that he was blonde— this was sun 11/3 around 6pm.“
