Best American Restaurants in Austell

Spent our Thanksgiving dinner with the welcoming crew at Hamp & Harry's and loved it. My wife loved the turkey & cornbread while I had more than my fill from the appetizer menu. The specialty cocktails for the evening were also excellent. Our only complaint (not with the staff or restaurant) was the family behind us and the screaming kids the adults were oblivious to. Overall, another excellent dinner at Hamp & Harry's!

So glad we chose Mac’s to celebrate Thanksgiving. It was great to have the option to have a traditional Thanksgiving meal, and the other options on the prix fixe menu were great as well. My husband had the turkey, and I had the surf and turf. Large portions and both were great. Service was very efficient. Great meal!

It was my birthday celebration and Blue Ridge Grill did not disappoint. I had the the house special, snapper with pumpkin gnocchi which was simply amazing. Blue Ridge Grill has that special touch from the complimentary valet parking, the subtle birthday table decoration along with a menu with my name on it. The customer service was outstanding. The greeters, the server and wine steward was impeccable. I want to give special recognition to server POLASH who provided the fine dining experience by his sophistication and excellent wine, starter and entree recommendations. POLASH went above and beyond when we mentioned Blue Ridge would like to give me a “small” birthday dessert. I thought the small dessert box with my menu was the dessert. Well, there was nothing small about my the dessert. It was enough for 4 people. It really made me feel special when Blue Ridge Grill offered their top signature dessert. I had an amazing time and recommend Blue Ridge Grill for any occasion.

Canoe is hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had in Atlanta. We came to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday, and the evening couldn’t have been more perfect. The atmosphere is just magical—warm, inviting, and the kind of place where you instantly feel at ease. The setting by the river is breathtaking and added such a special touch to the night. A huge shoutout to Patricia, our amazing waiter! She was everything you could hope for—attentive, super knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely fun. She kept us laughing all evening and made the entire experience feel so personal and memorable. The food was next-level amazing. Every dish was a work of art, both in how it looked and how it tasted. You can tell the chef puts so much heart and creativity into every bite. Honestly, it’s some of the best food we’ve ever had. Thank you, Canoe, for making my girlfriend’s birthday celebration so special. We’ll absolutely be back! If you’re looking for a place that delivers incredible food, amazing service, and an unforgettable vibe, this is it.

Wait staff was very nice. Took a long time to bring out the food.
