Best American Restaurants in Clifton

This is my 2nd visit to Alcove. They do a great job of making great food without being pretentious. The menu is varied in that you can spend a little more money, but also have a tasty sandwiches. This meal pleased all - dad with steak frites (a perfect med rare!), massive chicken sandwich and cod sandwiches for the kids, and a lovely chicken with pumpkin gnocchi for the Mrs. These were enjoyed by all. Dessert was cheesecake and chocolate cake were very good and just the right size. I don't want to forget about the "... by MadTree" part - the drinks and cocktails are anchored by MadTree craft beer as well as Sway. I went with the classic Identity Crisis and Holly Days. The kids loved their mocktails. The cocktail look great and perhaps next time I will venture that way.

Great food and service. We sat outside which was a little rustic but good. There was an overhead heater to keep the patio space warm but it was a little too hot. However, they were willing and able to turn it down.

Ambiance was festive. Food was exceptional. Grace was attentive to our needs. Upstairs was nice but noted some guests were a bit loud.

I got the beer baron sausage sandwich and my server suggested a side of the spicy mustard with it and it was delicious.

We met friends for a Holiday lunch and it was fabulous! The service was on spot and our server Ricolette was perfect. She was attentive and spaced our lunch out perfectly. The eggplant is one of our favorites and today was no different. The Davidson burger, tuna salad, scallops, and steak and frites were amazing as always. I highly recommend The Davidson for lunch or dinner!!
