50 Best American Restaurants in Vancouver

“It's a little costly, but you'll know where the cost is going. Phenomenal food, and great staff.“

“The most wonderful breakfast place! I love coming here to the warm welcoming atmosphere. Every single thing here is wonderful. I could try all of them and wouldn’t be disappointed. Lovely people, good food what more can you ask for!“

“absolutely delicious with a very nice intimate atmosphere“

“We love Crave and have gone there several times. The mac and cheese is beyond great. We love the pasta they use, and the sauce is amazing. I always have extra to take home too. Not your grandma's grilled cheese is another favorite. I personally don't understand the bad reviews. It has been so great every time we go we have been completely satisfied and have told management several times. Compared to a lot of places and fast food at the same prices, it is a no-brainer. Thx Crave for our new place!“

“Visiting friends in Portland, they took us here for Breakfast. Loved the ambiance. After a 30-minute wait (we didn't have a reservation), we were finally seated and waited... and waited... and waited, eventually receiving our order after another 45 minutes. Two of three orders were wrong - I had ordered "The standard" - described as "the standard two eggs* with a choice of bacon or Zenner's sausage served with home fries or field greens and choice of toast". Got it with roasted potatoes. The waiter insisted that's how they would always come - but then served extra fries - and, to make up for the wait, comped us with some of the jummy sweet balls they show in their icon image. I found this nice, but also the only appropriate thing to do to save them from a two-star review. Because the server, whom I found uncharmingly stressed at first, really woke up and sped up his game, I would take the experience and try it again when we visit our friends next time. The place itself is very nice, and the food was tasty - and would under other circumstances qualify for four stars or more (if you have read my other reviews, you may remember that I am rather particular with five stars).“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Almaro's Table in Vancouver recently, and I can't recommend it enough! We were on our way to Beaverton and arrived close to closing time, but the staff graciously welcomed us in despite the late hour. The food was absolutely incredible—it's been a long time since I've had something so delicious! Every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. And I must mention the dessert—it's truly to die for! It was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. If you're in the area, don’t miss out on this gem. I can't wait to visit again!“

“I had an amazing experience at Willamette Valley Vineyards in Vancouver! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a modern yet cozy vibe that makes it perfect for a relaxing afternoon or evening out. The staff is absolutely incredible—Linde, Morgan, Jeffery, Logan, Dietrich, Kathy, Reid, Thomas, and Kyle all went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They’re knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience so enjoyable by sharing great pairing suggestions and details about the wines. The wine selection is top-notch, especially the Pinot Noir and Estate Rosé, which were outstanding. The food menu is just as impressive—the small plates and flatbreads pair beautifully with the wine flights. One of my favorite parts was the view—absolutely stunning and the perfect backdrop for sipping wine. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this is a must-visit spot for wine lovers. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great spot in Vancouver. Impressive menu and everything we ordered was great. It punches far above its weight for what appears to be a pub from the name. It's really a nice yet casual restaurant / wine bar. We'll be back, for sure.“

“Katie, our server was amazing!!! You were incredibly busy but she was on top of everything. Your chef did an incredible job putting out high quality food in such a hectic time. Your whole staff was hustling. It was one of the best meals I have ever eaten and the donuts were memorable. Though this was our 1st time eating in your restaurant, it will definitely not be our last. Thank you so much for a great dining experience. Jay and Mindy Cooper“

“New kimchi dish is a hit! Please keep it, but also offer it in a larger size. Also, this is the third time I have ordered the kimchi… there is no ability online to add MORE/extra kimchi. You can add to almost everything, but not the one ingredient I actually would pay more for….“

“Super yummy beer battered fish and chips!“

“Savannah was very nice today. You can tell that she’s on her a-game. Chicken and Waffle was amazing“

“I have driven by here so many times and never stopped. Since we had diners on our mind, this quickly came to mind. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal this evening. A great array of menu items from breakfast items, burgers, steaks, chicken, sandwiches, salads, blue plate specials and desserts! Generous portions and scratch made. All along with affordable prices. The service team was friendly and attentive. With three kids in tow we all found the meal we wanted.“

“I was looking for a breakfast joint that would feel like home and I found it at Lisa's Country Kitchen! I ordered the Belgium Waffles with blueberries & a side of scrambled egg. The waffles came with a blueberry in every crevice so you get a blueberry in every bite! Plus a fruit cup side. It was a delightful surprise!

The staff is very friendly & attentive. I instantly felt like family.

Lisa's is my new go-to breakfast place! 💖“

“I had the corn beef hash, which Timothy, the waiter, let me know is made in house. Top notch! Would recommend. I was a mess today, as dealing with an ill family member, so it’s not something I’ve done before, but today I did not have my debit card on me. Timothy was so gracious, telling me a story of when he did something similar. I did get it sorted and am really glad something I thought was going to be embarrassing and feel bad, actually just felt like another person sharing their warmth and kindness. Thank you.“

“I am gluten free and found this place on my Find Me GF app. This was absolutely the best GF Breakfast I've ever had!!! The waffle was thick and perfectly cooked and came with not a pad of ice cold butter, but a large bowl of MELTED butter to pour over the waffle. That along with smuckers sugar free syrup...it was phenomenal! Also ordered slice of ham and they also gave me 4 strips of bacon too! I recommend highlty!“

“Best biscuits and gravy I have had! Definitely recommend this place!“

“I looked at the reviews online and pictures of the food, and that’s what made me come to this restaurant. I was not disappointed. I had the corned beef, hash and eggs. My first time out and it was delicious. The eggs were done just as I asked the hashbrowns were tasty and they even had homemade bread for toast. The waitresses are very casual and very friendly and I will definitely be back.“

“My daughter took me for Father's Day. Excellent food. Daughter loved her steak. My combo was an easy 10. Had the crunchy shrimp, onion rings, buffalo wings. Excellent food, service was excellent. Ty, we enjoyed it very much. 😎“

“Best everything ❤️thank you for my birthday bread:)“

“Great beer selection, but poor service from weird/hipster bartenders. Walked past me and my empty glass 6 times before asking if I wanted another beer.“

“Excellent breakfast sandwiches and the coffee is stellar. Nice people too!“

“Just wanna say how good the service is everytime we have breakfast at Elmer's on Capitol Blvd. Rosemary is the only one that helps us out everytime and we love her a ton. Always our go to place for breakfast. Thank-you Rosemary for your 10 out 10 service.“

“I had some biscuits n gravy earlier today and didn’t think I could finish it. It was so good I had no problem finishing it. It was that good.“

“We found this excellent pub our first night living here in Vancouver and it was a warm welcome. The staff was friendly and cheerful and the food was great. I think I've found my new favorite place in Vancouver“

“We had an AMAZING unexpected experience after the pool. Skye, our server, was so personable. In addition, she already knew what we wanted before we asked for it. In addition, the manager wanted to know our experience, she was so receptive. Applebee's is earning lots of props back. ❤“

“This sandwich changed my life. I will forever hold sandwiches up to the bar they have set and they have set it high. Say goodbye to jimmy Johns or subway and say hello to the future of sandwiches in Vancouver!“

“they have great servers friendly staff the asst manger Julian " Julez" cares about the customs making sure they get what was ordered and with an friendly smile and the other co worker Autumn always smiling make you feel at home so kudos to both of them“

“OMG their steak bites are to die for add mushrooms and you'ld think you died and went to the other side. They are always polite,friendly, and attentive. I love this place!“

“Everything from the food to the drinks is made with love and care. The owners and staff are wonderful and so kind. It's the kind of place you keep coming back to.“

“$15.00: All you can eat ribs, boneless wings, fried shrimp, coleslaw and fries. Everything was hot and delicious!
Meanwhile, two beefy five layer burritos from Taco Bell cost $13.00... I'm convinced I'm never eating fast food again.“

“the grocery is a downtown vancouver staple! i’ve been coming here for years and always enjoy trying their new seasonal menu items. their mac & cheese, brussel sprouts and house burger are a few of my favorites. the bartenders are very knowledgeable and attentive and are always playing a variety of great music! it’s very laid back and i always feel at home here!“

“lots of options for many with dietary restrictions“

“Odighizuwa Foundation held both Mother’s Day and Father’s Day dinner at the restaurant, the food was not only excellent but the staff as well. Our guests were treated nicely and with great respect. I will definitely come back to visit.“

“Great tap house with 28 choices on tap. Great and Friendly staff.“

“Best Pollo al Carbon! Delicious!“

“Food, drinks, atmosphere and service is always top notch! It’s one of our favorites.“

“Absolutely love coming here every week and trying all the new specials as well as their pizza that they serve! So good!!“

“Great Vibes and Values! 😁😁😁“

“Amazing food and great service every time. The pizza is always fresh with a perfect crust and tons of flavor, and the fish and chips are surprisingly some of the best around—crispy, golden, and cooked just right. Friendly staff and a welcoming vibe make this place a go-to spot. Highly recommend! 🍕🐟“

“Great place. Never been to a bar with such impressive service, great food and all around good vibes. Band was free too. Love this place.“

“A great place if you like dive bars, which I do. But I also like mid to top shelf spirits and they accommodate that (not sure about top shelf, but they have Hendrick's and some nice vodkas - that's all I was looking for, so didn't notice the whiskeys or tequilas) Our bartender tonight was awesome and we'll definitely be back.“

“Always a great cup of coffee. Both the employees and owners take effort and learn the name of the customer beyond just the type of drink they normally buy. I’ve seen when the owner’s find a shot brewed substandard; they’ve dumped it at their own cost in favor of getting it right. It’s a small thing, but it says a lot. They care for their coffee and for their customers. 10/10“

“We stayed here for nine nights and enjoyed our stay.“

“Typical local bar/pub. Good food, good atmosphere. Here on a Saturday night with new friends and karaoke.“

“Great Service and food. Chantal is the best waitress.“

“Really not a fan of corned beef and never eat sauerkraut... I've now gone twice for the dirty corned beef fries. They're seriously SO good. And a freakin huge portion. If you're getting it as a starter it can definitely feed 4+ people. I've gotten it as my meal both times and have taken half home. Also makes great leftovers. I'm bummed I waited so long to try this place.“

“This coffee shop provides good quality coffee at a very reasonable price. The owners and managers are absolute gems and very friendly members of the campus and community. They have always focused on using high quality ingredients and providing extensive training to their employees. They don't put corn syrup flavorings or burnt roasted coffee beans in their coffee like many chain coffee shops do. Just good quality, traditional Italian roasts, high quality flavorings, and other great non-coffee options like organic tea.“

“Great food and great customer service. We love to do business with people that do business with us! We clean commercial carpets and clean tile and grout! Sincerely bros pros Carpet Cleaning Contact TJ Manahan @503-607-5293 brosproscarpetcleaning.com“
