50 Best American Restaurants near Hainesport

“The place does not look like much from the outside, the inside is the a cozy dive bar. Awesome super friendly staff kept our drinks and bellies full. The bar is big and had locals and regulars. They were friendly as well. There are a few high top tables and some seating in a small dining room. The food was surprisingly good. The steamers were in a delicious light garlic sauce. They had a chili special the day we went. The chili was hearty and good. The tony sandwich was great. The roll was super soft but not mushy soft. The taverna pasta was huge. Pasta with chicken,shrimp, scallops and crab in a blush sauce. They have live bands and karaoke and trivia on certain nights. Will definitely return for some of the other menu items that seemed good.“

“Once a month me and my wife get together with my cousins. I decided to try Dunleavy's. We moved to Lumberton in 2002 and haven't been there once. Boy! Were we missing out! Glad we went. Great food with excellent service and the atmosphere was like us. A little on the loud side. If you're looking for a romantic dinner, this isn't the place. If you're looking for a good time and food to match, this is it. I'm definitely going to go back.“

“Always outstanding. Every aspect of Jules is top notch. I tried the special swordfish Milanese. So delicious. The Mrs. Had the scallops. Her go to every time. The servers are wonderful. They really understand the menu and are phenomenal at articulating it. 10 out of 10 every single time.“

“It was a couple of years ago but I still remember it. I remember the food was good, the drinks were good and our waitress was very nice.Kid-friendliness: It's very kid- friendly here. They have coloring mats, kids menu, high chairs, etc.“

“Top Notch cocktails, Wayne will not steer you wrong! Both times I've gone he came up with a different variant of the old fashioned, both times they become my new favorite version of the old fashioned. On my last trip there, he didn't hold back, he came up with a stellar old fashioned and served me the best margarita I'd ever had! If Wayne ever asks if you trust him, do it, he will not disappoint! He got a feel for what flavors I like and served me the most phenomenal marg in a big skull glass, the pineapple was so ripe and juicy and the drink itself had the perfect spicy/sweet ratio!! All the bartenders were friendly and served everyone well, we all had a great time! I also love that you can get to-go cups and boxes to enjoy cocktails and food in your room!“

“I walked around the mall one day and noticed this new restaurant that was open. I walked in and got a takeout menu, looked at it and said I'm going to come back one day. It took a year but I finally went back My wife and I were on our way to another place to eat lunch and when we drove past the mall we decided to finally try Harvest. The restaurant is nice. Now this is a farm to table restaurant. They even list the farmers on the menu and the menu is seasonal. I'm not a vegetarian, don't care about gluten free and I don't watch calories but if you care about any of those things, this place is for you. So I had a hard time finding something to eat on the menu but I got a chicken club and my wife got the crab cake sandwich. And let me tell you, in 26 years of marriage I've NEVER heard my wife like the food so much! She said she could eat the crab cake sandwich everyday! Very flavorful she said. She said the food was good 4 times while we were sitting there. I couldn't stop laughing. Compliments to the chef! Based off that alone I'm giving 5 stars. My rating would have been 4 stars but again this is not my type of food. The chicken pita sandwich was okay, the chicken was dry. The pita bread made a difference. I'm going back to get that crab cake sandwich.“

“Such a cute and quaint place! Very fast and quick service! Our waitress, I think her name was Lindsay, was very friendly and amazing personality. The food came out quickly and was yummy as well. The place was poppin!!! Will deff be back :)“

“One of the best decisions we made was choosing the mansion on Main Street as our wedding venue. Everyone did such an outstanding job to make the wedding day special especially Samantha and Janine. They were both such a pleasure to work with and were very supportive throughout the planning process.All our family and friends are raving about how phenomenal the food was and gorgeous the venue was.The staff were all so professional, courteous and accommodating even when we were behind schedule. Kene and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts.“

“This is my new diner! With several diners in my area closing down recently, we gave Olga’s a try. It’s a beautiful, clean diner with great food and friendly service. After several visits, the food and service has been consistently great.“

“The team at The Madison and Thomas, in particular, were exceptional. The venue's beauty was breathtaking, and its cleanliness was without fault. The culinary experience was a highlight, with dishes that transcended traditional event food, both in presentation and quality. Thomas, a true professional, made the planning process a breeze with his patience, knowledge, and helpfulness. The service received from Immanuel and the staff on the night of was flawless, and every staff member went above and beyond to ensure our guests felt welcomed and cared for. A big thank you to everyone for making this milestone event so memorable.“

“I ate here on my last trip to Jersey, and the food was great! To top it off, the portions were even larger! I had the New York Reuben and it did not disappoint. I only finished my fries and half the sandwich before I had to tap out! This was my first time visiting, but I will be back on my next visit to the area!“

“This is the spot where my coworkers go after work to unwind. Great selection of cocktails ? , and the only “bar food” that I’ve ever actually enjoyed. In fact I even went back with a friend just to grab lunch , we had the kale salad with chicken and it was delicious“

“Just had a delivery. Ordered their cheese burger rare. I wanted a nice juicy burger dripping in flavor. Came 80% close. But loved it. I'd order it again Driver followed instruction. The only thing. Like customer service on phone. Don't speak eng listening so communication was like talking on phone tech support. But the food was good. English speaking not so much“

“Been wanting to try this place forever and finally made it over the weekend! It was a very excellent meal. We had the Cream of Spinach soup, Truffle Fries, Shrimp Diablo, and the Honey Pecan Chicken topped with cranberry cream sauce. All were excellent. Only minor issue was we realized at the end of the meal they didn’t bring the bread that comes with the shrimp diablo, and my fiance would have liked it for dipping in the amazing shrimp diablo sauce. No biggie really. Food was awesome, quaint little historic building, great atmosphere and service, and the Bloody Mary’s were excellent also! We will be back!“

“I returned today for a visit after a hiatus of a few years. This is a great place to fly in for breakfast. I had the cheese omelet and was satisfied. My coffee cup was never allowed to go empty. The menu is quite extensive. I plan to return to try other selections. The service was prompt and attentive. The runway is a little beat up for pilots interested in flying in, but it is a minor issue. There is plenty of parking on the ramp.“

“If your last trip to Flavortown was to Vincentown Diner, you would be delightfully surprised at the meal you would receive here. So go ahead and add that to the list. Growing up in Jersey, I feel that Vincentown Diner definitely raves as one of the better local diners that I have been to. I mean, don't take my word for it - you can always look to a much better known and more qualified person than myself, i.e. Guy Fieiri.Not an expert in diner cuisine and experiences by any means, I feel that Vincentown Diner does a great job in keeping with the times - the modernization of their image and menu is apparent. Sure, there is definitely the train of thought that sticking with the basics is the right way of doing things. However, I argue that in an industry and culture where stagnation may result in downfall, Vincentown Diner does a great job at maintaining the basics while exploring menu items that bridges the gap to other tastes and experiences. As such, Vincentown Diner is truly unique.From the moment you arrive, you will find that the Vincentown Diner does not subscribe to the typical brick-and-mortar, 70s/80s diner appearance. The design of the building is incredibly sleek, with clean lines and appearance. It does a great job at catching one's attention as it sits upon the intersection. You may even mistake it as a fine dining venue, until you see the word "diner" on it. There is a neat patio area with rocking chairs, but all the seating is located inside the diner.Upon entering the diner, you will begin to see the transition into the old school diner look as if you are travelling through time in a sense. The diner is clean and well maintained. The bathrooms are a bit small, but this is probably not the reason why you're here. We ate here around noon, and found that the service was great. Literally the entire staff was approachable and incredibly friendly. Our waiter was outstanding and knowledgeable of the menu items; he was on point with taking our orders and delivered accordingly.As mentioned previously, the menu items fused traditional diner items (breakfast, sandwiches, and burgers) and explores a bit of other cultural items. The food was great (I know I'm being vague here, but I assure you that you will be delighted with the portions and flavor in your meal). I'm looking forward to coming back again, and trying out their burgers.If you're working on Fort Dix, whether that be during the weekday or weekend, I challenge you to make the trip out this way to Vincentown Diner. Trust me, the meal will make your day! But really for anyone in New Jersey, I would recommend Vincentown Diner as a State-wide staple.Wheelchair accessibility: There is an ADA compliant ramp that leads to the entrance of the building.“

“Came here today on my birthday 4/23 at random since golden Corral was packed googled food near by found them.. Was definitely a pleasant surprise the service was awesome quick and friendly not to mention the food was great highly recommend comeing here i know we will definitely become regulars“

“Delicious food, plenty of sauce options. The fresh cut fries are the 3rd best because the only 2 people/place I've had make them better are my late father, and the Worthington PA Fireman's carnival. To be in that category means they are damn good fries! The other sides are good too, but definitely get the fries!Grab a brownie for dessert too .. ?“

“Never heard of this place. Only found it cause it used to be a TGI Fridays and I was in the area. We freakin love this place! Been back a lot since finding it. Food is awesome, drinks are cold, and service is great! I highly recommend trying it!“

“My first time here and first in memory of true drive up classic. It was wonderful.Service great....food....well it's what it's supposed to be...and I'm happy with the simple but complete menu. Clean as can be....and one sip of root beer from a mug...well it is just so comfortable and so good.“

“Best pizza around. Coming from NYC, I'm so happy to have found Anthony's pizza. The dough is perfect with the right amount of chew. The sauce is the perfect balance of salt, spice, and flavor. The coal fire bakes the pizza perfectly and gives it a nice toasty taste.“

“Great Sunday birthday brunch today with exceptional service from Randy! Delicious and creative menu.Had banana foster French toast, my family had Eggs Benedict. While waiting we received a complimentary white chocolate chip pumpkin muffin.Only downside, is this is a smallish place and is packed and it can be difficult to hear your conversation over others .Looking forward to another visit soon! Thanks for the great birthday fare!“

“A cool local pub that serves amongst other things, pork roll sanwiches. I had never had a pork roll and so on a whim was suggested to try The Pines Tavern and it was pretty good. The service was exceptional, super friendly staff behind the bar, which I always appreciate.“

“I’ve been here three times and each one was great. I made a reservation for my birthday dinner a few days early and had to add a few people last minute; they made it work and fit us all in. The lentil burger is delightful, the beer cheese in the pretzel platter and doghouse fries is delicious, and the feta and hummus appetizer is also delectable. Drinks are strong, staff is lovely.“

“Phil and his family are amazing. They are so nice and keep my tummy very happy. Way worth it to spend 2 3 extra bucks over wawa for a sandwich here. They care, it’s always fresh and delicious. My favorite hoagie shop to support. Hands down my favorite. Also love they are small business and very family involved and ran. Just beautiful all around and I can’t believe it took me 5 years of being a customer to leave a review.“

“My brother and I stopped by Stacks yesterday for the first time. The lobby was crowded, but we got in pretty fast. Our server Molly was on point, and made our first experience a great one. The premium platter we ordered was a great - it had a little bit of everything! I enjoyed the pot of coffee that comes with every cup - no need to chase down the server for refills. We will definitely be back soon!!“

“This was my first time here, not an empty seat in the place but we did not wait long to be seated. Super friendly waitress and she didn't pressure us to order our drinks as soon as we sat down. It was hard to choose with all of the options. I ordered a regular coffee, but I also tried my daughters smoothie and my husbands salted caramel mocha chino. Those were delicious. I ordered a western omelette with potatoes and an English muffin. My omelette looked good and had a good flavor but was watery and not fully cooked on the inside, so I could only eat a few bites. The English muffin was burnt, hard as a rock and was not edible. The potatoes were good but had to pick out the cooked ones as some potato pieces were still hard and not cooked all of the way. The prices were decent and portions were pretty big. We stayed for a few minutes after paying as we were chatting with family we haven’t seen in a while. They were still very busy and I’m sure they needed our table so we wrapped up our conversation and headed out. The best thing was them giving me a to go cup for my coffee. I guess that’s their sign of they want you to get up and leave.“

“Always love coming here with my boyfriend. We typically sit at the bar and service is always outstanding. Ever bartender is knowledgeable and friendly. The food is always delicious and well-prepared, have never been disappointed by a meal here. Great atmosphere, always clean, and had a good crowd.“

“I had missed going to Amish Markets and being here made me happy. Amazing cream cheeses, best cakes, sausages etc. Pretzels were okay.Kid-friendliness: They were amazingly interactive/receptive to kids.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp and the aisle have width to them.“

“The waitress was nice until I talked to my sister in law, and she was putting her order in. Then my waitress started to ack like she was tired of me. SMH then she brought me my Togo container she brought it to the table saying here. That’s very unprofessional.“

“This place is like a hole in the wall (you'll miss it when driving by, if you don't particularly pay attention to its location!), but BOY do they have yummy food! ? Wasn't disappointed. A typical neighborhood bar where everyone mingles the best they can, while others sit and enjoy chef's delights. And talking about the chef, he is above and beyond, ohlalaa - he ecen came personally to explain to me that he can make a gluten-free version basically of anything I want from the menu. Wow! Where else do you get that kind of service? Nowhere!“

“Great service, good food, good experience with my familyParking: Plenty of spots, good amount of space.Kid-friendliness: Gives kids a menu of their own food they can have like Mac and cheese, grilled cheese, chicken fingers, and a bunch of other good foods. The menu also comes with a word search, and coloring to keep the kids occupied while waiting for their food and drinks.“

“I called ahead to schedule a team lunch for our out of state hockey team (total of 36 people, about half were kids). They were extremely accommodating, quick to respond, and set up a plan to make sure we were able to order and pay for each family efficiently.I sent our orders in 24hrs in advance by family hockey number and when we arrived, everything went so smoothly!!! Pitchers of water were already on the tables, additional drink orders quickly taken, and food started to come quickly. Everything tasted great and the service was amazing!!!Thanks again from the DE Ducks PW hockey team! We would highly recommend The Borough Pub!“

“We were up at Mt.Laurel animal hospital with our pup who had seizures. We had to wait so we went and got breakfast here. We got pancakes, banana foster French toast and a Porkroll, egg and cheese on toasted sour dough and coffee. It was all very good! French toast was delicious, lots of bananas and walnuts, pancakes are different in a good way, they're banana based and amazing, the sourdough sandwich was huge and very good. We ordered, ate and paid within 40 mins. The only downfall it was a little chilly. But we would go again in a heartbeat. On a day that was stressful this nice little breakfast was just what we needed.“

“Turning never fails. The service and the atmosphere is always peaceful and happy. Today is my baby birthday and they surprise her with ice cream and a special message. Unexpected and cute. The food is excellent and the price is reasonable. Turning point I will back soon.“

“The food was delicious! My server Bryan was amazing and very friendly he made me and my sisters feel very welcome! I'm so glad that I found this beautiful gem . I will be returning! I also love the classy style of this beautiful restaurant it's truly amazing.“

“Did some plumbing work for these guys with the previous company I worked for. Being that my wife and I had just moved to Riverside(late 2018), I had always wanted to try this place. Finally got around to it tonight and boy they definetly not disappoint. We ordered take out, food was delivered hot and fresh. Very flavorful, authentic and delicious. We have a 2 pizza spots, a Chinese spot, bar spot and now I have found my go to Mexican restaurant ?. Keep it up guys!!!“

“Busy, busy, busy so we sat at the bar enjoyed Boneless chicken wings with a ? and margaritas while we waited. Nice bar, friendly bartender, plenty of things to keep the time moving, great Western decor. Meal was outstanding NY Strip smothered in onions & mushrooms, butter ? & applesauce. Of course there where ? and they were good. Super waiter, food cooked just right. It is a bit noisy though, regardless, we had a great time, we enjoyed, we will be back. Enjoy“

“I really like the breakfast there.I get the 2 bacon egg and cheese biscuits.You can get other variations of them with sausage other stuff to.That meal is really good I always enjoy coming here.Always get my order really quick and the employees are always nice people.“

“Drove by this market the other day and decided to stop. So many interesting items. The staff working are very pleasant. We had questions about some of the items and they were happy to explain and give opinions. We love Turkish cuisine and are always up to trying new things. The prices were very reasonable. The butcher/meat area had wonderful looking fresh meats. We didn't plan this trip and were heading somewhere else afterwards, so we didn't pick up any meats, but will be coming back to try some. In the back is the bakery and a little place to sit. We purchased a coffee and a pide. We sat down to have a few bites of it, and it was very good. The dough had a little crispness and soft chew and very good flavor. We also grabbed a turkish cherry soda, which was very light and refreshing. We ended up buying a lot of items including a case of the soda. We definitely will be back.“

“This is a nice, more quiet location. Clean! Alex the bartender was very friendly, professional and helpful. He went above and beyond to make sure I ordered the things I truly wanted off the new menu and getting me the sauces and dressings I wanted. I drive through this area on my way south, but I’ll be making a regular stop here for dinner or happy hour going forward. Thank you Alex for your hospitality!“

“Pastries are delicious and not too sweet. Perfectly done. Bread is fresh and delicious. We had their brunch and have had lunch there too. Food is well prepared and tastes wonderful. A great place in a peaceful setting. Not far from Smithville park.“

“Our server this morning Bryelle was fantastic!! felt like we had walked into a fine dining restaurant but we had just walked into our friendly neighborhood Applebee’s! She was very friendly, helpful, and speedy with her service. The boneless wings are never a miss at this location. Overall had an amazing experience.“

“Been here twice on a Friday night and food has always been fantastic. Only complaint is that they sat us in the non-dining room area side where a live band was playing. Very loud to the point it's hard to communicate at your table. We also had a child with us. I noticed there were more children on this side, so not sure why they decided to seat parties with kids on this side with the live band. My wife and daughter were also cold since it's more of an enclosed outdoor dining area with ceiling fans running in January and February. Will continue to come here, but next time I'll request the main dining room.Parking: Two parking areas. The smaller one closest to NJ-38 is a one way.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available with Crayons.“

“It was busy....we made reservations for 430.......the service was great..we were not in a rush...the clams casino and the scallops goergine....were fabulous...salad...very important..old school...the salad was cold and fresh....all restaurant people take head..pay attention...the salad was not dressed 3 hours prior and warm....anyway..I had the broiled seafood..which was definitely wild caught shrimp....not farm raised...I loved the portions of stuffed flounder.....I cant believe this is an old school restaurant....with old school food....and“

“Absolutely delicious! We came here for date/birthday night dinner. We have never been to this town before but wanted German or polish food. This was EXCELLENT! The service is friendly and inviting, the chef is top notch! We will absolutely be back!!!** this is CASH ONLY*** for the most expensive meals with appetizer it was 70$ for two of us. Worth every penny just referencing for an ATM run.Finally, I recommend wearing your fat pants. You will leave stuffed!“

“Great little pub with even greater food. Kitchen makes some good burgers, and the selection of beer has never disappointed. Usually one of our go-to spots for lunch when we are in the area. Also attached to a cool whiskey/speakeasy bar. Check it out!Parking: There are a few parking lots on the side streets, never had an issue finding a spot.“

“UNO Pizzeria & Grill exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure my dining experience was top-notch. Now, let's talk about the food - simply outstanding! The pizza was freshly baked with delicious toppings, and the flavors were a true delight to my taste buds. Each bite felt like a culinary journey. Plus, the variety on the menu ensured there was something for everyone. Overall, my visit to UNO Pizzeria & Grill was a delightful experience that I can't wait to repeat. Highly recommended for anyone craving fantastic food and exceptional service!“

“This is a long established summer tradition. Ice cream, soft serve and other treats throughout the spring and summer. Outside tables and oldies playing on the sound system.Kid-friendliness: Locals have been bringing their kids for multigenerational yummies and fun.“

“My husband and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary at Top Golf Mount Laurel and it was worth every penny! Our waitress was on point, everything was explained well in terms of golfing rules/how to play, and the food was pretty good.We ordered buffalo dip with chips, pretzel bites with cheese, and the all American burger to split. The food was good but not amazing. Convenience gets 5 ⭐️'s as we could golf and eat (in between turns) We were also surprised with injectable donut holes on the house to celebrate our anniversary! We also got a drink (the collectible one) that looked like a golf club bag-the drink was good and the cup will be an amazing souvenir.Needless to say, we felt valued and loved here.Parking was a little more challenging as most "normal" parking is in the back of the lot, which is a decent walk to the entrance. *There is an also handicap entrance ramp as well as stairs to enter the facility.We went on a Sunday morning (11 or so) so we got lucky with not needing reservations and getting right in. Overall, was an amazing experience and well be going back to play again sometime soon!“
