    Special of the day was Salmon Ceasar Salad.
    Elizabeth H.

    Occasionally we will take a train ride up to Windsor just to have lunch at KC's American Kitchen. I have never had a bad meal here. Their shakes are supper yummy, and if you like cole slaw their's is particularly good. This time I was going to get their Ceasars Salad, but they had a Salmon Ceasars Salad special. The Salmon was cooked perfectly and very very tasty. It was especially good. My husband had the Audrey Hepburn Sandwich. He gave it a thumbs up, and said the fries were good too. Service is always cheerful and accommodating. The outside eatting area gets a nice breeze and is very comfortable. You will get a good value at KC's American Kitchen.

    Teriyaki Burger with Sweet Potato Fries
    Shaguna W.

    A nice diner with a good menu. Service is exceptional. Our server was quick and checked just enough to ensure we had all we needed. Menu had a variety of sandwiches, burgers, some salads and a lot of snacks. Had the pulled pork quesadilla- good pork. My husband enjoyed it a lot. The teriyaki burger which was good. A bit overcooked but flavorful. Cabo Cobb Salad was light a flavorful. Also had a yummy, thick chocolate shake! The patio dining was great. Lots of space. A variety of different types of seating and large fans to circulate the air. A great place for a casual dine.

    Coffee cake raspberry yummm this coffee cake was an option with toast or biscuit or coffee cake

    It was a very chilly Sunday morning after J Vineyards' Christmas party the night before, and we slept through our complimentary breakfast at our hotel lol So I checked my trusty Yelp app to see what looks good with good reviews, and bing bada boom, KC's American Kitchen, so the decision was made. The ambience here has a diner vibe, with lots of old Hollywood pictures and memorabilia. Service was prompt and came with a smile. I ordered the bacon, avocado with pepper jack cheese omelette. Hubby ordered over-easy eggs with maple sausage and a biscuit. Hubby loved the maple sausages, plus his perfectly cooked over-easy eggs, and the biscuit was darn tasty. He also ordered a mocha and loved it all. My omelet was very good, not chintzy with the cheese or the bacon, the bread option included this raspberry coffee cake and thank you very much delish. Next time I'm in the neighborhood, and quite frankly, I come to Windsor often, if I want breakfast, I'm coming here. Cheers, my friends SYOY December 8, 2025

    Front patio

    We came out early on a cold, rainy weekday morning. We had our little dog, so we sat on the patio, but found the outdoor space to be warm and actually comfortable even though the weather was not. I ordered one of the potato pancake meals: "loaded potato pancake" on the menu. I've got to say I think I would've been happier with just the side of hashbrowns. I was hoping that my order would've been nice and crispy, but sadly it wasn't. I wasn't too impressed with the potato pancakes. The bacon was tasty, but really chewy. I'm a crisp bacon type of gal. My husband ordered the waffle and it was absolutely delicious. The flavor was so yummy. My potato pancakes came with a choice of bread and I decided I would choose the biscuit. Big mistake. It was super weird flavored. It was a drop biscuit, not a traditional biscuit. I flagged down a server and she graciously, and cheerfully took the biscuit back and brought me rye toast. If we ever come back, it would be for the waffle alone, and that's the only reason why I gave it three stars.

    We rolled in ~16 deep without a reservation and they handled us like pros! The food was wonderful, and the service was even better! I ordered a "I love animals" burger, and my daughter ordered a "sassy waitress" sandwich. Both were well prepared, but what really impressed me was that they had our orders in quickly, and we were all eating in ~15 minutes time. They split the parties/checks up perfectly, and they were on top of drinks and requests the entire time. The ambiance is Americana/diner, well curated and maintained. The owner clearly takes good care of their restaurant as well as their employees. :)

    California Eggs Benedict.
    Angela I.

    Just went here yet again for brunch and delicious as always! Had a short wait for a table since it was around 11:15 am and they were super busy. Fast, friendly service and good food. Always love it here at KC's! We got the eggs Benedict Blackstone and the California Eggs Benedict. Both yummy and satisfying:-) Busy, lively atmosphere.

    Hillbilly Benedict - biscuit, sausage patty, egg, sausage gravy
    Monica F.

    Been here a few times for lunch and have always had a pretty good experience. Yesterday the husband and I decided to try their breakfast offerings. The restaurant was packed on a busy Saturday morning but we were able to snag a table inside. I love their outdoor covered patio, they have a great fire pit out there. They have a wide breakfast offering with menu items that are very unique. My husband decided on the Hillbilly Benedict (biscuit, sausage patty, egg, and sausage gravy) and I went for the Big Boss Benedict (English muffin, ham, avocado, egg, and hollandaise). Both were served with county potatoes (hashbrowns or fruit are also options). The food was delicious, however my poached eggs were way overcooked which was a big disappointment as I love a runny egg. The hollandaise was a tad thin but had great flavor. My husband loved his meal and cleared his plate. Service was attentive and friendly throughout. The ambiance is fun with lots of decor to look at. We live in Santa Rosa so this place isn't super close but it will definitely be a top pick when we're in the area.

    Meatloaf sandwich
    Cabrina R.

    I want to love this place! I love the ambiance, and always, the service is great! The location is lovely! But I'm striking out on the food. Once I ordered the meatloaf sandwich; it was beautiful presentation but it was dry and without flavor. It's served open face, no sauce on the bread, mashed potato's grilled onions and a BBQ sauce drizzle... each layer is dry and flavorless. Even the grilled onions don't have any flavor. The only flavor was from the BBQ sauce garnish. Today, I tried the Steak and Bleu ( tri-tip and Bleu cheese) sandwich, it comes with grilled onions again it was dry and flavorless; maybe some aioli? Or some seasoning? The tri tip was well done and then reheated in a flat grill surface from the looks of the meat. Again it is great presentation, fantastic service, but the food is bland, REALLY bland; I have tried twice in the last month.. I am afraid I won't be back, which really is unfortunate, I really wanted to love it!

    Sourdough Dave Burger
    Donald K.

    Got a sourdough burger and got thru eating half and found a pube under my burger and tangled up in the onions. Pretty gross , I thought I was going to throw up after seeing it. Definitely last time I give them a chance.

    Poiche Garden Burger Bendedict
    Elizabeth S.

    Brunch anyone? A wonderful dining exoerience at KC's American Grill on the Town Green. I must say, the brunch was absolutely fabulous. The mimosas were perfectly mixed, the Poiche Garden Burger Benedict was delectable, and the pancakes were the perfect sweet touch to round out the meal. A perfect location for a delicious brunch experience in a charming setting. Perk: dog friendly

    When you walk into this restaurant, you are thrown back into time. The decorations are very fun, nostalgic and give this restaurant a lot of character. There are so many fun-loving phrases on these pictures that adorn the whole restaurant! The restaurant has both inside and outside seating. The outside seating is covered, and there are heat lamps to keep you warm. Service was super friendly, attentive, patient, and made our experience here enjoyable! Thank you again, Katherine P, for taking good care of us! [Descriptions per their own menu. Very clever names on some of their menu items] Pulled Pork Nachos: KCs house-made tortilla chips smothered in their famous BBQ pulled pork thats been kicked up with their amazing salsa plus grilled peppers, onions & melted cheeses. Added jalapeño (extra $1) for some spiciness, but they were too spicy at all. The pork was tender but juicy. "The chips did not get soggy but stayed crispy/crunchy." Baja Fish Tacos: Crispy Icelandic haddock in corn tortillas topped with crunchy slaw & served with our own Baja sauce on the side. Served with French fries & coleslaw. Our friend enjoyed the tacos and liked the coleslaw. Freedom Dip: A patriotic version of the classic French dip, American Style. Layers of lean roast beef, Swiss cheese & tomatoes on a soft Freedom roll with au jus. Served with Freedom Fries. Our friend really liked his sandwich a lot and enjoyed this twist on the classic sandwich! Big Fish Sandwich: This one didnt get away! Super sized, crispy haddock on a roll with lettuce, tomato, and tartar sauce. Very simple and no frills sandwich. Nice crunch on this fried haddock, which was firm but cooked well. My sandwich came with French Fries. The fries were nice and crispy on the edges but soft in the middle. Perfect! Hollywood Cobb Salad: A Hollywood tradition since 1942. Mixed salad greens topped with sliced chicken breast, avocado, Bleu cheese crumbles, bacon, tomato & chopped egg. Choice of dressings - Ranch, 1,000 Island, Bleu Cheese, Honey Mustard, or Basalmic Vinaigrette dressing. This was a fairly large and tasty salad. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. The Cilantro Mango dressing was very delicious! The portion size was pretty good on all the things we ordered. My only complaint would be that it was smoky in the restaurant. It was like the kitchen vent/exhaust fan was not working that well. It was coming from the cooks making all the delicious food for us diners or takeout. Great ambiance, service, and food! Next time we are in the area, we will definitely return to try some of their other items!

The ambiance is casual, and the service was great to throw some tables together for our large group without advance notice. Our server was Heather, and she took great care of us the whole meal, which lasted almost three hours! Never a rush for a birthday party. For food, we always have our favorites here: the wedge salads (whole and half!) and, for appetizers, the Frickles, Kin wings, and calamari. We also had some other great dishes, such as the YBC burger (Certified Angus Beef patty, sharp cheddar, lettuce, tomato, onion, on a toasted brioche bun), the Dip (Thin sliced, slow-roasted top round, melted Grand Cru Gruyere cheese, smoked horseradish cream, toasted hoagie, garlic au jus), and a Michelangelo (two 4oz burger patties, American cheese, house aioli, house-made pickles, lemon pepper bacon and onion jam, crispy potato strings, lettuce, and tomato on a toasted brioche bun) - truly a masterpiece! I also grabbed two pizzas to take home: the Mac Daddy and the Smokehouse. Their mac n' cheese as an entree is great too, but not this visit! We tried some adult beverages as well, and the margaritas this visit were a disappointment - very bitter. The Mai Tais were amazing, by comparison, and soon several of us found a new beverage to enjoy. All the food was great, and the Frickles were well-fried and hot, but not greasy at all. The wedge salads are substantial, so a half for us is usually enough as an entree when taken with all the appetizers. And again, Heather was a great server for our needy group! Thank you! Looking forward to the next road trip to Windsor.

We came to enjoy the Pliny but they have a great selection of different beer (and great prices too!) We had plans to eat elsewhere afterwards but couldn't help but order something to snack on while enjoying our drinks. Ordered the Pliny fries with added grilled onions, chicken wings with Pliny sauce and the vinnie's ice cream sundae for dessert. Pliny fries came with white cheddar fondue, jalapeños, garlic oil and the grilled onions we had added was a nice touch. Chicken wings were a nice size, cooked well and the sauce surprisingly had a good kick to it. Really good! Came with a side of celery, carrots and both blue cheese and ranch dipping sauce. Now that ice cream sundae? So good! Ice cream is made from scratch from the owner's recipe. The almonds are a great addition for the texture. Huge serving also! Service was great. Staff was attentive and checked on us often. We watched the World Cup game inside and when that was finished, went outside to play a few games of cornhole. It's free. Just have to give your ID to get the sacks to play with to make sure they get it back. Great spot. Would definitely come back!
