45 Best American Restaurants near Crestwood

“Just got to dine in this past Friday. Absolutely wonderful! We’ve carried out a time or two but we will certainly be going back more frequently to eat in.Wonderful service, amazing food and the cutest place.Our party of 4 had the deviled eggs (unbelievable), baked Brie and Brussels to start.Entree’s included the shrimp and grits (delicious), shrimp and spinach penne (generous portion) and the fish special( the best fish I’ve eaten in quite a long time).So excited that such a gem is so close to home!“

“Out of towners trying this breakfast/brunch restaurant out for the first time! outside atmosphere was adorable and gives a feel of "home". Patio seating and seats outside under a tent, where the outside bar is! The wait time was about 45 mins for a table, but that was perfectly okay because of the outside bar and porch to wait! cornhole, table jenga, and connect 4 games were also outside, so there are things to do while you wait. the food is spectacular. Try their homemade jams and hot sauce! You won't be disappointed! Service was excellent. We sat at the bar, bartender was great (Jasmine), and the wait time for our food was under 10 mins. I ordered the BIG BAD BISCUIT - Make sure you have room in your belly because the portions are extremely generous! I could only eat half of the biscuit! Very clean, "homey", and just an overall wonderful experience. Great Job!“

“Nice place for a family meal or place to grab a bite to eat. We enjoyed a dinner following the Underground Ziplines in the nearby Mega Cavern. My wife enjoyed a Scrumptious Pulled Pork Platter that satisfied, while i indulged in the Brisket Grilled Cheese...which was equally amazing. We arrived early and the place filled up quickly, is nice to see. I did enjoy their various house BBQ Sauces, and a couple hits of their Mop Sauce to my Bloody Mary was Beautiful! The wife purchased a Sweet Tangy Mustard Sauce before leaving.“

“Dined here tonight and absolutely loved it. Chris was my server with his assistant Kaili and were the perfect duo! They made our night so enjoyable and were very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was delicious and everything was cooked to perfection. Absolutely loved the look of the place with the impressive wall of alcohol.“

“we recently ate at Steak and Bourbon for my 66th birthday. lovely atmosphere. good service. however, my husband ordered a $50 steak (NY Strip) which was less than stellar. he ate it until the last 4c bites were un-chewable due to the gristle. he mentioned it to the server as she cleared our dishes. she meekly apologized and left us our bill with a 20% tip. no manager to address the issue and no discount on an expensive cut of meat. we ate generous in our tipping, but we were slightly offended that 20%was decided for us. the gristle and the 20% both left a bad taste in our mouth. we won't be visiting again.“

“First time here after hearing good things, satay the bar, and couldn’t have had a better experience all thanks to our bartender, Karla! Super attentive and professional but with a personal touch. Her energy kept us a little longer than we planned so we’re looking forward to coming back next time she’s working!!“

“The food here was absolutely AMAZING! I ordered the Farmhouse Skillet and we shared the Banana's Foster French Toast. Everything, down to the buttered toast with strawberry preserves, far exceeded any expectations that I had. Our server (Hallie) was so helpful and attentive without being overly present. She was pretty much the textbook definition of superior service. Her personality was great and she exuded good vibes! The experience overall was phenomenal and I can't wait to return and introduce more people to the restaurant!“

“We celebrated our anniversary there tonight and received excellent service, and the food was beyond wonderful. Kevin, our waiter was great! We also loved to see that they employee individuals with special needs as we have a son with Down Syndrome. Definitely will be back soon.“

“We had a party of four for lunch today, including three adults, and one child. The restaurant was very accommodating for the five year old, making sure he got what he wanted! The three adults were very happy with our food too. Everything was absolutely delicious, and cooked perfectly! From the appetizers to the burgers to dessert, everything was absolutely delicious. Our server Kyle was very friendly and efficient. He gave us plenty of time to decide what we wanted and made sure we had everything we needed. He kept our drinks filled as well! One of the managers, Jay, stopped by our table to see how everything was going, and we appreciated that! Between the food, the service, and the experience, it was fabulous, and we will all go back again! Highly recommend it!“

“My favorite chain burger in the city! This place has definitely earned its spot in the regular lunch rotation. I've been about a dozen times since they've opened and the food has always been great and the drive thru line moves quick. I recommend this location specifically since it's so nice to be able to take a burger, fries n shake to Tom Sawyer for a picnic!“

“We’ve visited Barn 8 a couple times now. Overall, it’s a cool experience and a unique atmosphere. It’s nice to get out of the city and try something new. There’s a nice variety of dishes and everything was really flavorful. The desserts were amazing! Only reason it’s not 5 stars is because everyone in my party chose different dishes and the portion sizes vary from dish to dish even though they were all from the bottom-half of the menu which are supposedly the entrees. Maybe that’s on us for not checking with the waiter first on portion sizes. Other than that, everything was great and our waiter was very kind. Great experience for special occasions, but not somewhere I would visit too often.“

“We had the the chicken livers, hot brown, and shrimp and grits. The portions were huge! All of the dishes we prepared excellently. Flavors and presentation were excellent. Service by the wait staff was excellent. Prices were very reasonable. I had an Old Fashioned to drink and it was done right. I will definitely be back!“

“Been coming here for years for Happy Hour. The staff is always great and the food is incredible. Deon and Marcus always have really good wine recommendations and they have a decent Bourbon collection. Tyler the GM is on point with the food recommendations and pairings. Great experience every time.“

“The food and service were amazing this morning. Our friends from out of town wanted to try it out. In the past I had never been impressed with it due to some service issues but today’s visit well surpassed my expectations. Bridget is on top of her game!! She was quick, highly attentive and delivered customer service like no other. Most importantly, she made some great recommendations and was courteous to me as she noticed the booth was a little tight so we moved it back some. I ordered the Belgium waffle which was perfectly crisp, served with butter and a berry compote on the side. I ordered a side of pork sausage and fried potatoes. Perfect pairings. I really enjoyed that they leave water in a jug at the table. That’s a good touch. My husband ordered the works omelet which included mushrooms, cheese, sausage, bacon, ham and of course (egg) with a side of buttered grits. I’m not a fan of grits at all but he described them as very delicious. We will be back and will ask specifically for Bridget!“

“The ribs are great but I'm a brisket man. You really need to get both and enjoy. I'm from Texas so the bar b que sauce is not my cup of tea but the vinegar base one for the pork is good.Parking: Make sure and use your GPS because you may some time pass the entrance. Once there plenty of parking.“

“Food was good but I was surprised by how rundown the inside was for the price.2 of us had duct tape on our seats and when you looked around everything is beat up and past it's prime.Food was basically good but nothing I would rush back for.“

“Red Hot Chicken!? Red Hot Chicken would be better described as a mediocre, beer, pub buffalo chicken wings. Today the chicken was chewy and overcooked. Buffalo sauce would've been more mirrored to a place where they wear Tight shorts and tight shirts. Overall fabulous experience. Wonderful menu, great staff and the crabcakes are to fight for. Biggest suggestion I could make would be that the restaurant provide a lunch menu so as not to confuse the guest with items that were not able to be purchased until after 5 PM. When I return, it will definitely be after 5 PM and I'm looking forward to trying the lamb and the spaghetti.“

“What a great place for REALLY GOOD FOOD. The fried pickles are AMAZING. There is plenty to choose from on the menu. This place is 5 stars all around!! Really cool the trains passing by right down the middle of Main Street. I suggest the Ruben!!! So delish. The fish sandwich is great as well. :)“

“The burger was absolutely delicious and the girl standing out there taking orders was very nice and so helpful answering my questions since it was my first time stopping there. Service was fast and very friendly.Dietary restrictions: I did notice that they have gluten free listed.“

“Went there late one night and Candace was there all alone. At first we were the only one there and then a mob of people came in but Candace helped them all and was super sweet to everyone. She rocks and we will definitely be coming back to see her again!“

“We went for lunch with 4 people on a Saturday, and we were served quickly and politely. The food was hot and the order was correct. They also had multiple TVs on with sports and entertainment channels. We go to this restaurant about once every few months and it has always been a good experience. I would definitely recommend you give it a try.“

“It almost hard to believe how high the quality of the food and service is here. The chicken sandwich is the best I've found anywhere, and the fried fish rivals what I'd normally pay $18 for. Sure, it costs $1 than other places but they don't prompt you for adding a tip to the payment. Plus they deliver the food to your table. Other restaurants should follow this business model.“

“Went there for my Mother's birthday, there was a little trouble getting us seated despite a reservation (not a ton of room to wait, so we felt a bit in the way while we waited)When we got seated the food and service was fantastic, I'm still thinking about the biscuits tbh! They were HUGE and fluffy and the house sausage is super good and herby. I would definitely eat the food here again.My biggest (and really only) issue was the noise. I'm not sure if it was because it was a Saturday or we were next to a large party also celebrating a birthday, but it was INCREDIBLY loud to the point where we could not hear each other without shouting. My Dad, embarrassingly enough, even whipped out his decibel app which clocked the restaurant at 91db. According to Google that is the decibel level of a pneumatic drill.I would really like to come back to this place if they can find a way to dampen the sound. But if you have older folks in your party this may not be the place to go without a few complaints.“

“The tomatoe artichoke soup and smoked turkey roll up was very delicious ? I was a little stressed over the person in charge fussing at everyone with a raised voice, you know like your Mom when you've done something wrong? Be kind to those who see you as a leader?“

“Stopped here after a movie with some friends. It was an hour before closing so I expected worse but it wasn’t too bad. I took a risk with a 6 oz. sirloin (wasn’t entirely sure how good the steaks would be here since I’d never had a Chili’s steak) and it was actually pretty delicious. However this looked like the smallest 6 oz. sirloin I’d ever received in the many times I’ve ordered steak from other places in the past. I didn’t complain though and even tipped 22% at the end of my transaction. I would eat there again, except the dip trio I ordered didn’t leave me craving more. As a regular at authentic Mexican restaurants, this wasn’t the best queso I’ve ever had so would not recommend that. You can find much better alternatives elsewhere, so unless you’re not in a position to wait I’d pass the queso up. The guac I was served looked and even tasted good but taste wise, I’ve made it so much in the past that I’m a bit biased. I like mine better. This will get you by in a scrape though. It’s some of the better Tex-Mex guac I’ve tried. All in all my experience was positive.“

“Food was great. Cheeseburgers, quesadilla, fish.Our waiter was nowhere to be seen for over 10 minutes! Luckily, Abby came over to ask if we had been helped. We said no, so she took & brought our drink orders. After a little while longer, she asked if waiter had come by, but again no. So she kindly took our order. She was friendly, personable, & efficient. Because of her, we had a nice evening!THANK YOU, ABBY!!!“

“My Dad and I went there solely for the Time Crisis 3 machine and also DDR. Im a little disappointed in the DDR machine, it was definitely kid sized, which made it not easy for someone of my size (I'm 5'10, 160lbs) to play on standard or heavy mode. Their food menu looked awesome, though we didn't eat there but definitely next time. They do serve Guinness stout, in cans, which were delicious AF. We played for a couple of hours, I got halfway through Stage 3 of TC3 before it was time to leave.“

“When we walked in I was sure it was not kid friendly due to the live band, I was wrong! We ALL enjoyed ourselves and the food was AMAZING!!! We will def be back, only with more people!!! #blindsquirrelrestaurant #blindsquirrel #buzzyboothVegetarian options: n/aKid-friendliness: Very much so!“

“Best Waffle House I have ever been in! Khara our waitress was patient and very helpful. She suggested to me that they could make me a omelet to fit my diet requirements even though it wasn't on the menu. Excellent Serice and food. Quite a rarity nowadays I'm my experience.“

“1st time visit today, love the 360 fireplace near the entrance but also the restaurant was clean and food was great. Lots of options with nice flavor. Our table had a variety including pork chops, fish and chips (which were huge!) And burgers, all hot and delicious.“

“We came in here an hour and 15 minutes before close and were in and out within 45 minutes. The food was excellent. The service was excellent. The atmosphere was nice as well. We got the fried green tomato meatballs for the starter and man was that delicious! For our meals, we got the old school brown, chicken livers with grits and fried green tomatoes and the blackened shrimp Alfredo with a side salad with balsamic. Everything was delicious and the portions were very generous! I would highly recommend coming to this place!!“

“I was looking for a Black owned spot to visit while in Louisville and The House of Marigold was recommended. So glad I checked it out. First of all, let's talk about how nice the space is. Everything was thoughtfully done. Now let's get into the food. I had the biscuits and gravy and oh my. The biscuits were huge and fluffy and the gravy was nice and peppery. Let's not forget the staff....very helpful and nice. I highly recommend“

“Joe's Older Than Dirt offers more than just a lively bar scene—it's a hub of good vibes and great times! Live bands set the stage for unforgettable nights, while Alcohol Tasters' Days showcase the finest spirits from local distilleries. Hungry? The kitchen at Joe's serves up mouthwatering dishes with portions that are nothing short of huge. And yes, for those wondering, Joe's has a website where you can check out upcoming events, menu details, and more. It's the perfect place to get a taste of what makes Joe's so special before even stepping foot on the dirt. The folks at Joe's make sure everyone feels right at home!“

“We had dinner here yesterday. If you're in the mood for a good bar food experience this is a great place. Our waitress Sarah was great. Food and drink prices reasonable. We had chili, fish, burger and fries. All well prepared and tasty. Definitely going to try the barbecue next time.“

“Crowded as usual, but is expected Sunday after Church. Still didn’t have to wait as long as they said. Gives me a chance to shop. I ordered the two breaded chicken breast added their delicious white gravy. Of course got hashbrown casserole as a side which is mandatory. Bisquit with blackberry jelly was my dessert. Mason was our waiter, he did a wonderful job of checking up on us and taking care of our needs.Will return soon and often.“

“Mr. G's Lounge in Kentucky is the ultimate dive bar vibe! ?? The bartender's seriously friendly and the drinks are top-notch. They've got killer drink specials that won't break the bank, plus a menu full of yum food. ?? It's the spot for a fun night out with your crew. #DiveBarLife #FriendlyVibes #DrinkSpecials #YumFood #GoodTimes ?????“

“My husband and I went on a low key, pre-birthday, date for him. The food was good. And the service was excellent as well as the drinks. Our server Cassidy was very nice and attentive, and not in our face too much.(perfectly balanced timing) She recommended the pretzel bites. She wasn’t wrong; they were good. :)“

“This is our new stop when traveling from Cincy to Nashville. Food options are plentiful and everything I have ordered was amazing. My wife loves the salad bar and orders soup to go along. Servers are always friendly and attentive. Very well run business with high quality food. Thank you and keep up the good work.“

“The Bristol has always been a favorite restaurant of my wife and me. The servers are always attentive and always serve what was ordered. The food is always prepared as ordered. The prices are affordable. The bill is always correct.Parking: The Hurstbourne Pkwy location is in a shopping center with a huge parking area. I go to the Bristol more than any other restaurant and have never had trouble finding a parking spot not close to the entrance.“

“Even at the late hour that I arrived I was warmly welcomed. The service from the time I walked in the door until I left was excellent!The food was perfect. The onions and mushrooms covering my tips was out of this world delicious.The salad bar never fails me. Always fresh, full, clean with alot of veriety.I figured the bill to be much higher. Great prices!Thank you for an amazing experience. I will return and absolutely recommend this restaurant.“

“We had an excellent experience at drakes. our server was excellent. Olivia was sweet and helpful and just over all a very good server. she is an asset to the restaurant. we had the chicken sandwich, the fish tacos and the Buffalo mac and cheese. it was served quickly and was very good. we finished it off with a cookie and ice cream. it was all so good. such a good meal, we will absolutely be back. highly recommend this place.“

“Our server was very helpful and polite. Even the host that seatef us held the door open for me as I'm in a wheelchair. My only complaint is that it isn't wheelchair accessible. It has a ramp but you need help opening doors.Wheelchair accessibility: Limited. Wish they had automatic door opening.“

“Jessica was amazing! She greeted us with a smile and was exceptionally friendly.She was like that with all the customers. i forgot something was on the salad I couldn't eat and didn't have them take off. Jessica noticed and had another one made for me. Very clean.“

“Josh Mabe the greeter is the best! he makes sure you get seated and checked on our group several times. I think the food is like an Ole fashioned country breakfast, was delicious. We had fantastic mimosas, the bloody Mary is like a breakfast in itself and so scrumptious. The servers like Christy make the experience like a party. And it's all about you. Love love love the GASLIGHT DINNER.“

“Ordered wings here a couple weeks ago. Sauce was there, but almost nonexistent. Chicken flavor was okay, but not really enough to back up the lack of sauce. Girlfriend got a burger and really liked it. Would probably go back, but definitely not for wings.“
