Best American Restaurants in Waxhaw

The food and service were excellent as always. That is something that is always dependable at the pump house. We made our reservation the first day they advertised the thanksgiving day special and were very excited. I guess I must have missed a place to indicate seating location, I think we got the one table in the restaurant with no window or view of the river. Which was disappointing, but probably my error for not indicating a table with a view on our reservation request. Otherwise it was a lovely meal, as always. The servers, staff, and food were great!

Ahi tuna is always great - either the app or the salad. Had the roasted chicken salad but switched it to salmon - that was great. The son had salmon (7oz) and ordered an extra side - he was happy. Hubby had the burger and tortilla soup (great soup).

Great meal with 8 os us celebrating 2 birthdays and an anniversary. Get the double black diamond martini!

This is fine dining at its best in South Charlotte. The food and service are both top notch.

RH Rooftop Review Service: Our server Leini was friendly, accommodating, and approachable. What stood out was the teamwork among the staff—other servers were willing to help, not just focused on their assigned tables. This collaborative effort truly enhanced the experience. Food: •Roadside Lobster Roll with Caviar (extra $$$): Absolutely phenomenal. The caviar perfectly complemented the lobster roll, adding a luxurious touch. The portion size is just right for fine dining and worth every bite. •Shaved Ribeye Dip: Delicious, though not particularly unique. While I enjoyed it, I found myself wishing I had ordered my wife’s lobster roll instead. Still, splitting two different dishes gave us the chance to explore the menu. Sides: Both the French fries and potato fries were great additions. They were satisfying and complemented the meals, especially when one dish had a smaller portion size. Dessert: The Banana Split with salted caramel was exceptional—fresh, flavorful, and downright indulgent. A must-try! Coffee: The Mocha Cappuccino with oat milk was disappointing. It tasted like stale brewed coffee. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize this until later since I took it to go, but it’s not something I’d order again. Overall: The experience was wonderful. I’d definitely return to enjoy the lobster roll with caviar, banana split dessert, and explore other menu options.
