Then I remembered American Café, and I'm glad I did. From the moment we walked in, the service was phenomenal. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about our experience. The burgers were superb--cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and made with quality ingredients you could actually taste. The prices were reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food. It's not a fancy or upscale restaurant, but if you appreciate great food made right and served with a smile, this is the place to go. American Café definitely earned a new pair of regular customers. The next time I'm in the mood for a burger, I know exactly where I'm going.

The cook on everything was as expected but the only thing that left me disappointed was the gravy. To me, it did not have much flavor, no sausage chunks, and just felt like it maybe wasn't scratch made. On the other hand, someone was in the back making those biscuits happen! Incredible, light, buttery. Service Perfection! Had this nice, sweet lady who was constantly available and upsold me on the sausage which is saying a lot. I was happy about it because the sausage was on point! Ambiance I like the openness, the pictures, the drawings. Just feels very welcoming. Would I go backm. Absolutely!

We go to this great dinner many times a week because the food and service is great:) Shelby one of the servers is friendly and a true professional:) Someone on this review wrote a nasty review and the women had an attitude before her water spilled because I was setting right in front of her and watched all of it unfold right in front of me and Shelby handled it so well but that women had an attitude :( so when someone gives this great restaurant a bad review they need to go to taco bell. read more

Over $15 for chicken and waffles. Chicken had no flavor and tasted like it was cooked in old oil. Waffles had no flavor and the whole thing was very meh. Server went way too long without checking on us or refilling our coffee. For the price and the lack of flavor and service we probably won't go back. Not terrible, but not really good either. read more

I got the corned beef and hash, which was amazing and my wife got the BLT which on the menu said comes with 1 pound of bacon. We thought it was a gimmick until it came to the table and it looked like something that would flip Fred Flintstone's car over. The staff was amazing and very friendly and the food again was all outstanding.

Date of Visit: July 1, 2026…read more After driving all day the previous day we were wanting a real good county breakfast. My wife told me she had just the place in mind and I've been there before too (City Cafe). But when we arrived we saw they were permanently closed, dang. I could taste it. Then the wife recommended Puckett's and they are just around the the corner, a short walk. As we walked up on the place I noticed the marque, retro. The inside was bit as well. We were quickly seated and drink orders taken. This was a weekday morning visit so not too busy. Looking over the menu, I may not have looked close enough, I decided on the "Build your own Omelette". Onions, tomatoes and pepper jack cheese. The wife ordered the B&G. I noticed I wasn't asked about my side? I wounded potatoes. Also rye bread with my omelette, hmmm. Our food arrived, all looked good. I saw my order came with what looked like frozen type of potatoes, perfect squares. I was expecting something home cooked, fried potatoes with burnt edges. Flavor. The wife's B&G looked great, two basques and potatoes as well. The omelette was good, plenty of everything and filled. The wife said here B&G was really good and she's a B&G expert. Over all, all was good just disappointed with the potatoes option and no rye toast. Perhaps they could consider fresh cut potatoes along with the frozen type. Also maybe offer some type of toast. Give the place try if your on the square. Peace.
