33 Best American Restaurants in Lakewood

“One of the best dining experiences I’ve experienced! I came in for my birthday dinner and I can’t express enough how amazing this place and service was! We were immediately greeted by our amazing server Diana, who was very attentive the whole night. We started off with the PEI muscles as an appetizer… phenomenal!! So delicious and tender. For my entree I ordered the Colorado lamb t-bone. This was my first time trying lamb and I was very impressed! Diana recommended drinks for us to try and all I can say is wow!! I cannot give 240 and Diana enough praise for making it a night to remember!! We were even given a free desert when we informed her it was my birthday. We will definitely be back soon! Thank for an amazing dinner!“

“The Service was good. Server was nice and very attentive.“

“I was here last night and it was busy! Felecia, the server, was the only server and she was swamped..in the weeds trying to do 'to go' orders and seat, take orders, serve and cash customers out... and the crew in the kitchen was kind of new. The did a SPECTACULAR job! She handled the 'front of the house' wonderfully and the guys in the kitchen rocked. That is why I come in here all the time!“

“Peytan gave wonderful service, love coming to see her! Drinks were perfect and the queso was great. Peytan is my favorite and will be back to see her.“

“Hits the Spot Diner is a good place for great tasting diner fare. The place could use a face lift... it's looking kind of old and sad, but the food is spot on. I had the chicken fried steak skillet. Gravy and plenty of it covering two eggs, the aforementioned steak and home fries, all excellent. My other half had French toast, also very good!!The service was good, not great... but definitely friendly. They are always busy, with a wait time for peak hours... but if you want good food, you're willing to wait!!“

“The food is always great here!!!!! If you like Greek, you'll love this place!!!We are leaving Denver next month, and I'm sure going to miss this place. We went in good dinner tonight as a farewell meal!It was awesome as always!Parking: You have to follow the arrow around back of the building and there is lots of parking behind and on the side of the restaurant“

“Chef Vilma is amazing. The only thing I regret is not going here before. The staff is amazing. They treat you like family. Go here every night they are open if you can. You won't be disappointed.“

“Every time I go here I get something new and it's always amazing! Haven't been disappointed once. Plus it doesn't hurt that they have one of my favorite ciders available here, would highly recommend an Ace cider to go with any meal!“

“Whenever we’re in town we always stop by and get our fill. Hands down best Philly in the state. Great customer service, order is always hot & ready for pickup. Delicious food!“

“I have been going to Johnny's Pizza for years, and when he opened Billy's, we were excited to try it. I can safely say that I've never had a bad experience at either place. I am a huge advocate of supporting local restaurants and retailers, and this is why. The pride in the food, environment, and experience is unmatched. My family loves the Works Cheesesteaks and Sweet Potato Fries. Unfortunately, John has had some difficulty hiring and retaining help. Thus, their hours have fluctuated. Don't let that deter you from eating here. It's simply Tasty!!“

“I do like this place and it’s a good place to come on ufc fight nights as it doesn’t get over crowded. The food is always pretty good. This most recent experience needed some improvements. We were served old tiny pieces of chips with our guacamole and had to request new ones. That should have never been served to anyone. It was like dumping the bottom of the chip bag on a plate. They did fix it which I appreciate. The biggest concern about this place is the staff. There’s one waitress with a very passive aggressive attitude we have had on previous visits. Another while very nice has the attitude of being easily overwhelmed and this place is small with only about 9 tables but towards the end of the night we were asked to get our own water refills because they were too busy. The waitress disappeared for long periods of time which could have been spent refilling guests waters. Highly recommend reconsidering some of the staff they choose to bring in and get rid of the ones with poor work ethic.“

“Coming here on a Sunday morning which was also a holiday made for an easy visit. We were sat immediately and the waitress was polite, friendly and professional. I ordered my go to Eggs Benedict with bacon and it was fresh, delicious, and aesthetically pleasing. After ordering the food was delivery quickly. The interior of this restaurant was clean as well as the exterior of the building including the parking lot. I shall return when in the area again.“

“Good food, prices with friendly service!“

“Cool local spot to eat and hang out. Food was tasty and well priced! We enjoyed a nice Sunday brunch here which included a bloody mary bar. If you are a beer drinker they have 2 pages of draft beers as well as a craft cocktail menu.Parking: Small parking lot at the restaurant. If full parking by the gas station across the street for freeKid-friendliness: Accommodating to kids, kids menu is well priced with good portions“

“Great food, atmosphere and staff!“

“Great place for a meal, appetizers, happy or game watch. Creative menu that is very tasty. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Plenty of choices on tap and a decent cocktail menu as well. Ample parking except during busy times and some weekends or playoff games.“

“we had a Christmas lunch for my women's group this week and they couldn't have been more accommodating. the food was very good and they even prepared 2 salmon dishes for 2 of our guests that don't eat meat. we will definitely go back.“

“My husband and I have loved living here so far! It’s very well kept and quiet, and the amenities are REALLY nice. I’ve especially loved the creek that we walk our dog around behind the complex that always has ducks and geese swimming in it. And on top of that, our management has been spectacular to work with and are super supportive! By far the best place we’ve lived in!“

“Thank you Matt & Kyle for making my experience a memorable one. You both took the time to make sure I was happy. Food sometimes can be a hit or miss but great servjce like yours is what draw people to return again and again. Thank you and blessings ??❤️?“

“Great food ok I guess great food wasn’t enough letters.“

“the teller burger was utterly delicious, a well planned and delightfully balanced set of flavors, cooked to a perfect medium.the fries were ok, as was my dinner companion's salad. high ceilings and relatively loud music created a dining room atmosphere that was much more like a night club or bar than a steakhouse.while the burger was a delight, and i suspect the more expensive entres are worth the price, i would not choose to spend that kind of money on a meal to be eaten in that atmosphere.i will probably go back for a business casual lunch or a quick happy hour“

“Went to our favorite family restaurant yesterday with all but one grandson ( in Nebraska) Had an incredible time and all our favorite dishes! We have been coming for so long we don’t even have to look at menus. It is the most delicious food always dependable that they will be there with smiles and great service! And if Yanna is there we get the joy of her presence! The Valdez and Lucero families“

“Amazing Greek gyros and baclava! The gluten free green chili was also amazing! Can’t wait to come back.“

“Nice little spot to eat and chill“

“We came in around 1:15pm on a Wednesday and sat at the corner of the back bar. From what we could see, there were 3 people working. 2 in the back of house and 1 running two bars and two dining areas - like a boss might I add.My wife and I ordered potato skins, the Wordsworth burger with bucket chips, and the Reuben with fries.Everything was absolutely DELICIOUS. The one guy running food and handling tables, and making drinks really worked well with the person behind the kitchen - they were quite a team.It was an absolute 10/10 and we will definitely come back here again.“

“Fun place with yummy food“

“Another great experience at Simms! Stephanie was beyond amazing and attentive. Great sense of humor, playful and professional. Would highly recommend her if you visit Simms in Lakewood. Thanks again for the perfectly cooked meal and the excellent service! Spot on wagu steak and perfectly seared scallops. The bread pudding was over the top for our group.“

“If you want an outstanding time, excellent food, wonderful service from Amel come to fiddlesticks“

“We visited opening week of the new Foothills restaurant. Excited about the upscale menu and interior. I wish they would have expanded the outdoor seating but a definite improvement regardless. Shout out to our server Tiffany who made the experience great! She was super attentive, friendly with a big bright smile - appreciate her!“

“The food is always great here and their drinks are good but it does take a while for your food to come out but it's always hot. They cater more to their regulars. If you don't go there that often, you really don't get that good of service, but they are nice when they come to your table. It will take longer for someone to come to your table to give you service. They really don't pay attention to you if you're not a regular. You will see the workers go to people that they know and do shots with them. All while ignoring your table. The atmosphere is good. I've never seen anyone fighting or causing issues.“

“The waitress (sadly can't remember her name) was amazing she went above and beyond to make sure we were good and kept a smile the whole time. Haven't been to a Red Robin in YEARS! But because of my pleasant experience I plan on coming back soon!“

“I ate at Black Eyed Pea today with 3 friends. Our waiter was Sean. He was very efficient and courteous. He joked with us. I thanked him for working as it's hard to find employees. He said he liked his job. This was obvious by the great service he provided. The food was excellent. I had the pot roast that melts in your mouth. The price has increased considerably but I understand food prices have increased everywhere.“

“Great pizza and spinach artichoke dip. Great atmosphere.“
