The best restaurants serving American food in Isle of Wight South East

The Food Shack is a great little local bar, sadly it is unable to remain open after the end of March due to not enough footfall. We have had a lot of great evenings here. I wish anyone who takes over good luck getting many of the residents to use it as Stuart the current owner has tried everything but still only gets a core couple of dozen regular users who will miss it terribly.

One of the more insane restaurants I have ever been to. The owner is a bit over-friendly and the overall concept of surrendering choice to the kitchen is interesting but not necessarily what you might enjoy for a relatively expensive meal. The food is not bad if American home-style is your thing and you might enjoy the ever-present company of the owner if you are into Tequila shots. Overall quite a fun place but not somewhere I will return to any time soon.

Restaurant was very smokey and cold - we had to eat with our coats on!

We went here on Saturday evening and had an excellent experience. There was a large group of roughly 30 people and still didn’t have to wait long for our food to arrive which impressed us, the food and staff are Awsome Highly recommend you try this superb restaurant

Didn’t expect something to quirky and nice. Very nice food and fabulous cocktails all at a decent price. We will definitely be back

Casual atmosphere, relaxed and friendly. We dined early so the service was prompt but not hurried in the slightest. Can particularly recommend the chowder. All the food was delicious and would recommend eating here.

Really enjoyed our visit here yesterday. My husband and I both had a bagel which was really delicious. I had the chicken and avocado and it was really packed with filling, so tasty. The staff were friendly and welcoming, I would definitely return.

Really lovely all-day breakfast and coffee. The only let down was having to go outside to use the toilet and the older female member of staff who made me feel a little "lacking" when I stuttered during my order, by her response which seemed quite impatient. Dog tolerant, but I wouldn't say dog "friendly".

Awful customer service. For such a small business, that I’ve heard good things about, their customer service is really bad. Not sure if he’s the owner, but he was rude. A smile would go far it’s not hard :) x

It is what it is. Reliable consistent food as you would expect it.

A little bit disappointed on our last visit. Seemed expensive for what we got compared to other fast food establishments.

The food is not good. I had a snack box. It was supposed to come with fries. It came with soggy chips which were flavoured with some spice mix and were most unpleasant. They were not freshly cooked and were hidden behind a screen so you couldn't see them before ordering. You can't call soggy chips fries. Fries are thin and crispy, not soggy and thick. That said, the staff were pleasant, parking was free and the place looked clean. Just not to my taste at all. Very disappointing. I won't be going to a KFC again in a long time!
