50 Best American Restaurants near Lowell

“Super clean, local diner with great hot coffee, excellent service, reasonable prices and yummy home cooking food! The restaurant has a fun vibe with blue walls and 50s music playing. The staff was friendly and engaging. We enjoyed our food, hash brown perfectly cooked, cheesey eggs and sausage. Highly recommend you stop by if in the area for breakfast!“

“First time at the grove and we had a good time. From walking in the door, being checked in, locking up phones, to being seated and served, it was easy and friendly. The atmosphere was cozy and comfortable. I liked the different types of seating options. I was disappointed that a lot of the menu items they have on their website are not available on the actual menu but the food was decent that we did end up having. The servers were friendly and helpful and even the owner stepped in to help grab dishes or ask if anything was needed when the staff was getting bogged down a little at times. I will plan on coming back again. ?“

“all our friends always told us to visit Marketplace Grille Springdale and we finally did today. We were absolutely impressed with our server, Tyler who was five steps ahead of us (as my 9-year-old said.) drinks were refilled before we knew we needed, empty plates were taken away before we even saw him coming! and the food was excellent and plentiful! We highly recommend the queso. At marketplace, you’ll find good old fashioned service where people actually care and work hard and take their jobs seriously. We highly recommend supporting this business! We need to keep gems like this around! And support good hard working friendly people like Tyler! Thanks you, marketplace!Kid-friendliness: my son LOVED his experience“

“Service-Not sure who the server was, but she was a red head we with tattoos going down her spine. She was awesome. Very friendly and talkative. Seemed genuine and not forcedFood! I had the philly cheese steak sandwich..was very good. Fries were awesome....the Long Island drink was ok.The menu was a code you scan on the table with your camera. Creative way to save on menus.“

“If I could give it negative, I would. I'm in town from Texas visiting family in LittleRock. People were raving about how great this place is. Well, this is what I got for a BBQ nacho and a kids chicken on a bun plate. They did NOT put any queso on the nachos and did not include the Mac n cheese on the kids plate. I definitely WILL NOT be back. Absolutely TERRIBLE - I've had better. UPDATE: Thank you for reaching out to correct the issue. I've had companies where a similar situation has happened and they didn't care to correct the situation - it shows that y'all actually care. Thanks again!“

“Susan's is ALWAYS wonderful. I have never had a bad experience there. My son got the ribeye steak and sides of okra. His steak was cooked exactly how he asked for it to be and came with cornbread and a roll thanks to an amazing waiter. I ordered the chopped sirloin and onions with okra, mashed potatoes and gravy, and green beans as my sides with cornbread. Our meals were both perfect and there wasn't a crumb left on either of our plates.Our host even pulled out our chairs for us to sit, our waiter was amazing and very attention even though he had many tables, the service was just phenomenal and the lady at checkout even complimented my eyeglasses.We love Susan's and will continue to make the almost hour drive there without any regrets!“

“Food was served fresh, quick, delicious and with a warm smile! Our cashier, Jeff was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful with our ordering. The kitchen made our order to perfection and in a very timely manner. Our order was delivered to our table promptly. The spicy chicken sandwich absolutely ends the chicken sandwich debate, hands down. (Have it my way: mayo, pickles, thick cut bacon and sliced cheddar yummmm)My daughter loved her cheeseburger and fries and was particularly intrigued by Culver's signature rootbeer. My price said the grilled cheese was 'soo num!'We ended our fantastic experience with their fresh made frozen custard. ? my niece couldn't even finish all of her chocolate custard with sprinkles, my daughter nearly picked her bowl clean of her flavor of the day (chocolate and Carmel of some sort with cookie dough I can't remember the name)I highly recommend!Vegetarian options: Veggie burgerSaladKid-friendliness: Free scoop of custard with kids meal“

“We could not have had a better experience. Everything was perfect. The entrees, the server, the ambiance, the wine, the dessert, it was all fabulous. Fabio ( I think that’s how you spell his name) was especially helpful, delightful, and prompt.“

“This place is just delicious. The best gluten free sandwich I have ever had. I am traveling from out of state and stumbled upon Meld. The sandwiches are unique because they are a folded sandwich and so yummy. They use Sadie Sue’s gluten free dough to make the folded sandwich. It was perfectly chewy dough and the best sandwich combos. Tom and the rest of the staff are such great people.“

“Went between 5pm and 6pm for the 1st time. I had their Dubliner and a Guinness then left. Even asked who was working if this establishment is the closest thing to an Irish Sports Bar for the area and they and a few customers around me said yes. Looks like I'll be coming here more. I left Illinois almost a year ago and grew up in an Irish area around Chicago so that was why I asked.The food was great and it didn't feel like there was any tension between anyone at all which made it comfortable.I had to take a photo of their customer service sign behind the bar.“

“The ribs and crunchy shrimp with raspberry sauce are my two favorite main dishes. Their spinach artichoke dip is a great starter. The Chocolate Mess is my favorite finisher for dessert! This location is clean with fast, friendly service and excellent food quality. We come here often and would recommend it as both family friendly and date night worthy.“

“Food was absolutely delicious! Try the shrimp and grits. OMG the shrimp was so flavorful on top of buttery, cheesy grits. Service was excellent. The modern industrial theme is kind of cool, but the hard chairs are not comfortable to sit on for very long.“

“I'm not sure if I blame Village Inn or not. We did food delivery this morning. Village Inn is our go-to. The best. Their sausage is so good. We have ordered numerous times from them. Like. I could retire next year if we invested our money into anything other than the scrumptiousness of village inn on weekend. Never. Not once. Has our order been wrong. Never. Thank you! For some reason, village inn was not doing delivery this morning. We had to order from (rhymes with Eye-shop). All wrong. It was awful. Therefore, my breakfast woes is your fault Village Inn....right?......[starting to cry after my awful breakfast from international casa de wrong-order-cakes].....where were you this morning Village Inn? [sobbing now] Where were you?! . Seriously. Order from them. We love y'all village inn.“

“This place wasn't bad. They have a small menu but our burgers were good. The fries were a little too salty for my liking but not bad overall. They didn't have much of a drink menu either, only having two hard ciders to pick from. The blackberry one was really good and just one glass got me feeling a mini buzz...which I'm totally down for.The waitress was really nice and friendly. She even gave us some places to check out while we were in the area visiting. I would come back if we do end up moving to the area.“

“Always a great choice for lunch or dinner. Burgers are always on point. Just got me a double cheeseburger and my wife a brisket stacker and they both were amazing. We have gotten many different items here and we will keep going as long as they are open.“

“Longhorn is a wonderful place to go. We often use it as our special occasion outing. Tonight we were celebrating our wedding day. The service and our server were excellent, and the food was, as always, delicious and plentiful. If I had any concern, it would be that the atmosphere is prone to being too loud. I have a hard time hearing my wife over the din of the room. Perhaps there is a location in the restaurant that might be a little quieter. Any suggestions would be appreciated. We sat across from the window row and it was just too loud.“

“There's a reason it's fast casual and not fast food; it's fresh, delicious, and the service is fantastic.Vegetarian options: A good veggie burger as well as several good sides.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free buns that are actually really good, as well a nice veggie burger.Kid-friendliness: Amazing kids meal options with yummy custard.“

“We love this place. I’ve gotten Westside for 20 years or so now, and while I miss the nostalgia of the old location, can’t complain that the new location is more convenient to where I live! My 7yo son also loves Westside.Great burgers, perfect crispy fries, and fantastic service always!“

“Went there for the first time for our anniversary dinner. They take reservations, which is a luxury these days. Got right in, and Jason out waiter was wonderful. Very attentive and great explaining the food options. Had the 14 oz Wagu steak and it was delicious! The leftovers made for a wonderful steak and egg breakfast the next morning! We will be going back!“

“I was here about a year ago and had a pretty bad experience, but today I decided to give it another try. I really like the decor and environment. However, today it was really Smokey inside from the kitchen, we wondered why the ceiling fans weren't on and shorty after they were on and help to clear the air. I started with crab stuffed mushrooms and my wife had the calamari. The mushrooms were really tasty and the calamari was nice and tender and seasoned well. I then had the scallops and bacon wrapped shrimp with mashed potatoes. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the shrimp was good as well. The mashed potatoes were perfect. My wife had a pasta and shrimp dish that she really enjoyed and took home enough for another meal. Service was very good. I am glad I decided to give them another try, we will be back.“

“This place was phenomenal! We wound up in Bentonville by accident after a trip got cancelled, and this place was across from the hotel. Came here for dinner with 2 kiddos. Every person we encountered was super friendly and the ambience wasn't too overwhelming especially for a friday night. Kaliegh (idk spelling) was out waitress and she was EXCELLENT. Super friendly, great with the kids, good recommendations and over the top service! Food and drinks were great as well! We will DEFINITELY visit this place again when back in town.“

“Super fun vibe! When you walk in the first thing I thought of was the perfect happy hour & cocktail kind of place with great modern decor. I give kudos to the original menu choice items and fresh ingredients. I just wish the men had a bit more to offer for dinner. The servers were super nice and fun...again making me think great for cocktails. For a full dinner experience, wouldn't be my first choice but for a night out with friends and some food, great spot.“

“Awesome little spot in Bentonville, not as well known. They do have cheaper menus selection then other in downtown locations, with great food. The restaurant is smaller and can be a little crowded at peak hours. One of my favorite locations for a bite to eat and a beer after biking.“

“Tony’s had moved from his Bentonville location before I could try it BUT I found him! Even better location! Being a native Chicagoan and having my office 1 block from the Vienna Factory & Store I knew what to “hope” for and Tony’s delivered. The Hot Dog, Polish and Fries ALL were SPOT ON! The meat cooked perfect and the spices & flavor just right, real deal toppings and the buns soft, warm and fresh! I’ll be heading back soon for the Beef and Italian Sausage combo!“

“Noticed the restaurant on our search for the train station. On the way back towards the hotel, stopped in for early supper. Wasn’t disappointed at all. Great food, excellent staff, comfortable seating. Highly recommend and will be back.“

“Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere! You can't go wrong with Smitty's, whether it's taking the family out to dine or simply kicking back to watch your favorite sport on the many screens! They have a variety of items on the menu to suit any taste buds. Be sure and check out the bar!“

“My best meal of 2023Kudos to Chef Jason Paul, Danielle, and their staff for elevating the dining experience in NWA. I was fortunate to score two reservations to Heirloom at the 1902 this year and both were extraordinary meals.My wife and I loved every course we were served during each visit. The prix fixe menu regularly rotates, so you’ll always be surprised.Having had the opportunity to dine at all the “James Beard” recognized restaurants in Northwest Arkansas, Heirloom at the 1907’s food, atmosphere , and service by far exceeds those (all great) establishments. We’re lucky to have it in our community.Good luck getting a reservation!“

“LOVE Susie Q. Look forward to its opening after winter every year.Love hearing "LUCKY Number??"Your delicious food is ready.I order a chocolate peanut butter shake and they custom make it every time.Its the customer details that makes this place extra SPECIAL.Parking: Park in front, off street, behind or beside. Many great options. I ALWAYS find a space.Kid-friendliness: The staff is always polite, fun and listen well to special order options. My 4 year neice loves to order frim the window herself.Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs or hard to get in doorways.The open atmosphere is perfect.“

“Been coming here since 2014, when I'm in town visiting family. They don't make it like this in Denver. One of my favorite parts of every trip here! 4 catfish filets and fries leaves me satisfied. I've tried to order additional food, appetizers in the past and I just cant make any extra room for anything but that catfish!“

“Best chicken Livers in town, hands down. The atmosphere is great. Wait staff is super friendly and bust their butts every time we are there. Whoever commented before me needs to understand small businesses, especially restaurants, right now and the struggle they go through daily to keep staff. Chicken fried steak, hamburger steak, burgers...even their tenders are good! But yall. Those chicken livers. whoosh.“

“I had breakfast there and it was really good. Waffles were delicious, and the scrambled eggs and bacon were good too. I was a little thrown off by there being garnish for breakfast items (I’m not used to it), but it was a really good experience overall.“

“We popped in to eat last night while in town doing some Christmas shopping. immediately upon walking in, we were greeted by the hostess. The atmosphere was cozy. establishment is very clean and inviting. we were seated and had waters at our table almost immediately. We ordered the pretzel bites with heer cheese to start. I ordered the snowball drink, it was good, but I would've like more coconut in it. To me it tasted more like a vodka lemonade. Still delicious!! My husband ordered the roasted green chile burger. I ordered the varied short rib sliders. after ordering, we discussed how we weren't asked how he'd like the burger cooked, so we weren't sure what to expect. Upon the food arriving, we were pleased to see that it was cooked medium rare. perfect. My sliders were delicious, my only "want" would've been more aoli on the sliders, mine had one thin line of aoli across the top buns. Service from the moment we walked in, to on our way out was impeccable. Food was delicious. Cory and his crew deserve some kudos for cooking everything perfectly. We can't wait to come back and try more menu items.“

“Excellent food, especially love their rolls. Service is usually great, even on busy nights. It is loud, but that's usually because it's a full restaurant. It's only too loud when they try to put the music louder than people talking.Parking: The parking lot is big, but at peak times it can be completely full, and you have to park at the business next door.“

“We had the best servicer I think her name was Stephenie. We have been to nice resturant chains and haven't received this great of service. The chef was new and very polite. The food was awesome and my husband said that was the best coffee! We'll definitely to back!“

“Really enjoyed this place. Straight forward and well done. It's just a classic greasy spoon, plenty of breakfast, the cheese burger and onion rings that taste exactly how they look. A great break from chains, try-hard foodie menus in concrete rooms, and your diet. ?The service is wonderful and friendly. Waitresses are on their game. Even the crushed ice is perfect. The old school vibe is nice, and very comfortable. Cookstaff calling the waitress' name instead of a bell or order up is a nice touch. We are lucky to have a few places still left like this in our area. Kid tested, parent approved.“

“We came to this place because it is dog friendly! ? I asked the hostess to sit outside and she said it would be about five minutes and that she would come get me. We waited quite a while so I went back in to ask and turns out, she forgot about us… she did apologize but didn’t offer any free app or anything… outside of that, the rest of the experience was great. The Brussel sprout and edamame appetizer was amazing ???. Wow. Brussel sprouts were cooked perfectly with some crunch. The sauce was amazing. Never thought to have it with edamame either but that is such a great combo. Yum yum. I got the fish and chips ??as my main course. It was amazing. Fries were great. Large portion. Had to take it home. They don’t make for the best leftovers though. It gets a little greasy haha but tasted great at the restaurant. This place is a tiny bit on the fancier side. But it’s very cozy and cute! ☺️“

“Most of the time we always get this kind of result. I really like their food. I always have. We had a great server who was quick and friendly and enjoyed her company. No problems with the food we bought my favorite thing at Cracker Barrel. Is there pancakes in the morning? They’re great sometimes I order just one after my dinner as a dessert.“

“Dear Kaeli, Cory and Wellington's 5 Star Staff,I wanted to personally thank you and all your staff that hosted such an amazing party last night! We have heard nothing but stellar reviews from our party guests for the exceptional food, the stellar location, and the amazing staff. Every single Wellingtons staff person that worked last night was so kind, attentive, and caring with our party. I wish I knew all their names, because I would love to personally thank each and every one of them. I would highly recommend your restaurant, and it worked out superbly for the 130 party guests that we hosted! We look forward to planning another event with you soon!“

“The best thing that could’ve ever happened to bentonville, period. Food is always top notch. I’ve been a 1st watch fan for a few years now and we just moved here so this is for me. The spring menu I’m not a an of but that a 1st. I will stick to the regular menu until the next menu comes out for summer. Service at this location is spotty as it depends on who u get, not all the staff is marching to the same beat or even hearing the same song lol but hey that’s the service industry. Always a great atmosphere indoor or out!Parking: It’s a plaza parking is plentifulKid-friendliness: Great kids menu!“

“Chili's in Rogers, Arkansas, exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was nothing short of perfect. The food was delicious and served promptly, with each dish bursting with flavor. The atmosphere was lively yet cozy, making it the perfect spot for a meal with friends or family. We left feeling thoroughly satisfied and already planning our next visit. Thank you, Chili's Rogers, for setting the bar high and delivering an unforgettable dining experience“

“We went for dinner tonight with 4 kids and 4 adults. They were so accommodating and the service was spectacular! The food was amazing and reasonably priced. Kids also eat free all day, every day, which was awesome! We will definitely come back here anytime we are in Arkansas!“

“Oh, my! The Sweet Oklahoma burger was amazing. Recently added to the menu. I added a slice of red onion to make it perfect. Our server was an amazing young man. He met us at the door, took us to a table and took great care of us. We tipped him according.“

“This was my first time visiting a LongHorn, so I didn't know what to expect, but I had a great experience.The free bread and butter at the start was warm and soft. Then we got the spinach dip for a starter, which was fantastic. The bread pieces were so crispy they were basically chips, which I loved. For my entree I got the 6oz filet with a loaded baked potato and salad for the sides. The filet was seasoned very well, and perfectly medium rare. The baked potato was great as well, having the perfect ratio of potato to fillings. Finally, we finished everything off with the molten lava cake and it was just as good as everything else we had that night.Service was amazing. Our waitress (sorry I don't remember her name) checked on us frequently, making sure our drinks were never empty. She also answered every question I had about the menu. I have no complaints for the entire evening.“

“This is a great hidden gem right off the bike trail. The chicken salad sandwich was amazing. The cherry pie was the best that I've had in a long time. The orange rolls were unique and quite good. Very nice and helpful staff. So glad we stopped.“

“Promptly greeted. Our waitress was amazing! She was friendly and knowledgeable about gluten and what items had gluten. She was prompt and kept our drinks filled.The burgers were so very good. Fresh and cooked perfectly. We have gluten intolerance and the gluten free buns were very good.Restaurant was very clean and the bathrooms as well.Excellent!! Great job Red Robin! You could tell staff enjoyed their job.Dietary restrictions: Gluten“

“This place is a solid 4 star restaurant. I have been 4 times and have had pretty mixed experiences. Some days were great but one of the times we had to go ask for a server because no one came to our table for 15 minutes. Its a pretty expensive place to be forgotten, but when we asked for a server they were nice about trying to make sure our food came out quickly.“

“The food here was pretty good (for a cracker barrel). The food was warm, but the service wasn't. The food wasn't all brought out at the same time. Once it was all brought out, we didn't see our server again until we were done eating. And nobody was there!“

“Was stunning from start to finish, the waitress was remarkably skilled she managed a 17 person party, out table, and another and I never noticed her get flustered or make a single misstep and somehow made us feel like the only people in the restaurant.Then the food was clearly better quality ingredients from local farms the chicken tasted like a free range farm chicken (I know because we grow our own) so much more flavor than any commercial bird you will ever eat. I had the Mulefoot special was meatloaf and lord help me everything was delicious. Then the bacon ice cream on sticky toffee pudding was amazing likely the most incredible explosion of complex and complementary flavors I have ever tasted in a desert.Kid-friendliness: There was a table full of kids in a party, and the staff handled them like skilled professionals, chatting with them and making sure they had their food first etc. actually plan to come back and bring my kids as I’m sure they would love the food“

“I went to the Waffle House north of Northwest medical center and it was terrible so I came to this location. This is an awesome Waffle house, great food, great service and clean. I would highly recommend this location stay away from the other one.“

“We were greeted upon walking in, food was served relatively quick. Our waiter was very attentive and nice. I would even go as far as to say it beats some of the over-glorified breakfast place that is half a mile down the street with a long wait and incompetent front desk!Parking: Dedicated parking lot“
