11 Best American Restaurants in Lafayette

“Was visiting some friends on Orinda and they recommended Social Bird for dinner. Sat at the bar to watch some tv and have a bite to eat. Tried the Lamb sliders and chicken sliders. Both we delicious and the drinks at the bar also didnt disappoint. Service was excellent and the establishment had a great atmosphere.“

“The food is very good. I ask for medium poached eggs, and I get them every time. It is incredibly hard nowadays to find REAL Hollandaise sauce..Egg yolks, real butter and lemon...it's here and good. I would also add the potatoes should have bell pepper and onion mixed in with them...imo...I will say this much, we were in there to sign paperwork for my daughter and her husband's very first house...we met there, specifically because it is an organic place, we had been there many times before. We were there this time to celebrate and sign papers. We were rushed out however, and it should have been noticed by the waiter that we were obviously celebrating... gift bags, mimosas, and an obvious celebratory atmosphere at our table.. pictures were being taken, and paper work everywhere... we were pushed out, the waiter was OBVIOUSLY annoyed that we had been sitting there longer than he deemed necessary, which was unfortunate. He was left, despite his obvious annoyance, a 30% tip. Other than that the food is very good and we will continue to come here. We WILL say, if we get "pushed out" again... it WILL be an issue. As an ex waitress myself, it is imperative that people understand in the service business, not everyone goes out to breakfast all the time, some of us go out to celebrate, to spend time together because we don't see each other that often..... we chose to come see you... it's important that that energy is picked up on. I understand the need to "turn" the table over, BUT when you have a table of six that's paying over $200+ for drinks, breakfast and time.... you should just back off and let us be. Read the table.“

“Nice place for coffee and a breakfast pastry, especially the scones. Can't go wrong with any flavor! Patio seating is great, and the community table inside is always welcoming too. Staff is helpful and professional but pretty reserved too.“

“We were looking for Curry Up Now, didn't realize it was actually part of the Local Kitchens mini food hall, which we'd never seen before but were thrilled to find. We ended up ordering from The Melt and Sushirrito as well, and loved everything. Ordering and pickup were easy, the staff was friendly, and the whole place looked spotless.Our family of four got tikka masala paneer on rice, garlic parmesan fries, tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons, and chicken karaage with Peruvian herb sauce. There were so many great options, we'll definitely be back again soon. It's the perfect place for a group. It's sort of magical that the same little place can provide so many different types of food, all fresh and tasty.There are a few picnic tables out front in case you want to eat there. For takeout, I recommend using the Local Kitchens app to order in advance.“

“Recently enjoyed a fabulous dinner at Postino's The food was wonderful, and the service excellent. It was a perfect al fresco dining experience“

“Highly recommend. Its quick, always hot, and the staff is friendly. Using their website is easy if you prefer that to a delivery app. They always run deals and discounts and it's super easy to order from multiple vendors. A local favorite!“

“Always good. Service was amazing even though the restaurant was packed. I had been to their previous much smaller location and wondered if they could possibly fill this much larger location. No problem there!!! Can't wait to dine there again.“

“I took my wife and mother-in-law to the Mother's Day brunch at the Lafayette Park Hotel. The buffet option was exceptional, with plenty of very fresh seafood options, a number of vegetarian and non-meat options, cheese and fruit, as well as an entrée from a predetermined list. The dessert selections were incredible! Luis was our server and was absolutely fantastic! He catered to our orders exceptionally well, was attentive and ensured we had a great experience. Overall, fantastic experience to celebrate the wonderful ladies in my life. “

“Our server was excellent! However, My petrale sole was overdone, my mashed potatoes were lukewarm to cool, my husband got only 4 scallops with his angel hair pasta dish. Too pricey for the entree experience. The appetizers...Brussels sprouts and tempura green beans were very good. The butterscotch pudding was ok...tasted more of the caramel as opposed to butterscotch.“

“We absolutely loved our experience here. The lady who served us was so friendly and sweet and the food options were great ! The coffee cake was delicious too. We are visiting from France and it was our first American breakfast here. We would totally come back again !“

“I like a good burger and fries. Not sure why the place was fairly empty. Food was good and found a good table outside to enjoy some fresh air and conversation with friends. Added a lemonade which was nice and tart. Next time I'll try the bison burger.“
