The best American restaurants The United States Of America

A stone's throw from a beautiful but often crowded beach in the summer, the establishment offers all-day dining in a rustic, mountainous atmosphere with logs and wooden floors (if you'd forgotten that Lake Tahoe is a - very large - mountain lake at almost 2,000 meters above sea level, the reminder is ever-present). The service is quick and attentive, however. The food is hearty and of good quality, with mostly American specialties on the menu. A good place to take a long break.

Housed in a former printing works, this restaurant offers an elegant, refined setting to match its Michelin-starred cuisine. Chef Andrew Zimmerman offers contemporary American cuisine based on local produce, with international touches. The menu changes with the seasons, and you're always pleasantly surprised. No wonder Michelle Obama is a regular. The owner, Emmanuel Nony, a Frenchman who has lived in Chicago for many years, will be happy to tell you a few anecdotes.

For this culinary experience, the restaurant asks that you reserve 4 hours of your evening - one-time service. Enjoy this immersion in new American cuisine. At the helm are Kelly McCown and Randall Selland, who create five-course menus each month based on seasonal produce and inspiration. The mastery of Californian terroir is perfect here, as is the mastery of Japanese cuisine, which often adds a little kick to the menu. A great team accompanies the chefs and assures you to spend an unforgettable moment.

Triple George is the casual grill for the chic residents of Las Vegas, and has been for decades; the black and white photos on the walls attest to this. In a nice authentic setting, you sit in a wooden booth or at the big circular bar to eat good pieces of meat. One of the best restaurants in Downtown, we recommend you come at lunchtime rather than in the evening: the prices are much more affordable and the menu offers more choices, among which is a large selection of appetizing burgers.

The kitchen isn't what distinguishes this restaurant from the gastronomic stage in L.A. It is a mixture of traditional architecture and typical Hollywood stories that make the best of Musso & Frank. It was one of the favourite places of Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. If it is not so frequented by stars, it remains in memories as an old Hollywood institution. Cocktails are also a good argument for coming here. You are discouraged from tasting vegetables or talking with old servers; on the other hand, let's go to the bar where you will certainly enjoy more.

A true angeleno institution since its opening in 1908 by the French Philippe Mathieu, this great dinner has been located since the 1950 s at the gates of Chinatown. Its specialty is the French dipped sandwich, a sandwich lightly wet in the juice of meat whose bread is garned (beef, lamb, turkey, choice). Philippe Mathieu, in 1918, accidentally dropped the bread of the sandwich he was preparing in the oven sauce; the client, a policeman, decided to eat it anyway. Amazed by the taste of this failed sandwich, he came back the next day with a group of friends to ask for a sandwich soaked in the meat juice… the legend was born. Nothing good gastronomic in the old fast food, but the salads of macaroni or potatoes, the soup soups or broken peas, Caesar salads, the inevitable coffee juice and the famous sandwiches are true diner classic. The American way of life optimistic and good child of the 1950 s. The apple pie (apple pie), another classic of this address, is a simple and comforting regal.

With its surfboards, hanging shark and colorful cheap cocktails, it's a bit of a surf bar cliché. Without surfers, of course, since we're at Pier 39, a sort of small shopping mall doubled with a series of restaurants, all set on the water's edge, and it's mostly families and tourists. That said, you can sit outside, which is always nice, and enjoy a bowl of tuna chunks and a plate of fried fish with good fries. Drake's IPA beer is also tasty.

A courtyard with three wide trees, luminous balls of various sizes falling from their branches, and jazz music in the background: this is the perfect setting for Spencer's Restaurant. Sitting down on the pretty patio is a pleasure in itself; ordering one of the excellent dishes on the menu, then seeing it arrive, superbly prepared, makes the experience even more enjoyable. Special mention must go to the breaded sea bass, the revisited crab cakes and the fine range of meats. A very fine table!

Cooked outdoors over a wood fire, the grilled meats are enjoyed in this exquisite log house in the middle of the desert, in front of the folk and rock bands who come to perform in their cowboy boots and miniskorts, craft beer in hand. It was here, in Pioneertown, that many westerns were filmed in the 1950s; this restaurant was then just a movie set. Today, Pappy & Harriet's has a charm straight out of an American road-trip movie. Don't hesitate to consult the online music program before you come.

A break away from the crowd on Hollywood Boulevard in the trendy, trendy and trendy Boutique Inn of Mama Shelter. On the menu, a beautiful menu of sandwiches, salads and bowls at the varied filling, evening of meat or fish dishes.

Tasty cuisine, great cocktails and a breathtaking view of Vicksburg are just some of the reasons why 10 South Rooftop Bar&Grill is so popular. It will take a little patience on some evenings, especially on weekends, but it is worth it.

A very trendy New York atmosphere, and a marble decor that spreads out designer tables one after the other for this restaurant with a huge room that has managed to create distinct spaces that allow a pleasant intimacy despite its size. The whole of Sacramento comes here to eat simple and generous dishes. Salads and sandwiches are for example a very good lunch break, with brunch on weekends. Nice cocktail menu for the later hours. Large terrace for sunny days.

Vincent is first and foremost a restaurant with an excellent wine list and serves platters of local cheeses for aperitifs. It is also the favourite place for young couples from the neighbourhood to dine. This charming neighbourhood bistro is located in a small, discreet street perpendicular to North Clark Street. Its cuisine is American with European influences. We like the simplicity of the dishes and the generous cuisine. Cheese platters are a must but also try duck confit or steak with shallots and mushrooms for example.

Timber Steakhouse has long served the best meat in Portland. But the Covid crisis shuffled the deck. The owner changed his concept and transformed his restaurant. Today it's the Timber Bourbon Bar & Lounge, where you can enjoy one of the many bourbons on offer or sip a coffee martini, a very fashionable cocktail, comfortably installed in a subdued atmosphere. You will also have the possibility to eat some welcome appetizers.

The Bubalas is always lively and its large terrace on the street, heated by braziers for the cool evenings, attracts many people. From the back of the long room, you will have a breathtaking view of Provincetown Bay. The menu is very varied, offering seafood as well as salads, vegetarian dishes, burgers or pasta. The friendly and cheerful welcome and the efficient service make this restaurant a nice address. The restaurant is immediately recognizable by the bright yellow building that houses it.

This restaurant, housed in a house perched along Route 7, immediately sets the tone: Williamstown is a town that attracts a wealthy bobo clientele. The menu changes with the seasons (see website), and the carefully selected produce is sourced mainly from the region. The bar is also very popular, and reservations are recommended in season. Mezze also has a boutique hotel, open since February 2024, with a dozen contemporary rooms.

Push the door of this bohemian bistro and discover a warm atmosphere on concert nights or weekends. At the bar, in the dining room or outside, the clientele enjoys a modern American cuisine revisiting its regional classics. The homemade pasta and the haddock fillet with cumin sauce, walnuts and roasted almonds, made us happy. On Sundays, regulars come for brunch. Not to mention the bakery, with its small section of cakes, roulades and cheesecakes.

The dining room immediately sets the tone for this remote corner of Maine. The walls are paneled, stuffed deer heads adorn the walls and tired speakers broadcast country music. The family and exhilarating cuisine emphasizes haddock and seafood. Each dish is accompanied by a choice of two vegetables, and if you're really hungry at the weekend, you can opt for the breakfast buffet. The cuisine is not unforgettable, but the quantities are perfect to get back to after a day outdoors.

Formerly Stoneacre Pantry, this restaurant reopened in 2017 at a new address and with a slightly different concept. It serves contemporary American cuisine. The menu can change daily, according to the chef's wishes and the products available. The dishes respect the seasons and the ingredients are of the very first freshness. Whenever possible, they are sourced from local artisans, from butchers to fishmongers and fresh produce. Nice choice of cheese and French wine list.
