This food at this restaurant was so tasty and arrived quickly. Large portions too. So many choices to choose from too. The service was impeccable. The server checked on us a couple of times to make sure we were ok. The restaurant was nice and clean. I'm glad I googled it. Yelp was right. Good place to stop for a bite. I wish I lived closer. I will go back.
The service here was wonderful! Our waitress was quick and super friendly. She was smiling and helpful the whole time. The hot chocolate was full of whipped cream and looked like a Xmas tree. The atmosphere was definitely a cute little cafe with lots of decor. I ordered the chicken fried steak, with home fries, sunny side up eggs and toast. It was good
When I want a delicious home cooked meal I know American Host is the perfect spot! They have the best biscuits & gravy and their chicken fried steak is amazing too! For lunch their BLT is one of my favorites! Not only is the service fast and attentive, the ambiance is a nostalgic and welcoming Americana vibe. It's no wonder this spot is a local favorite!
This is a local favorite and a visitors must! An american diner is the best way to describe it. Great small town friendly service! The food is really good and they give you plenty! Coffee is refilled frequently too. Cute and quaint, busy too!
Stopped by for brunch today around 11am. Restaurant was sorta busy but service was great. A lot of people yet we were seated fast. Food was good for a good price!
The food was spot on - home cooking always hits home. Portions - big! USA Flags were the best! And non stop coffee - keep it coming!!!
OMG!!! Finally a real restaurant in Lompoc!!! I've been working in this city since 2015 and always felt held hostage to either eat at a fast food place or buy my own stuff from the supermarket - NOT TO MENTION there's never been a place I felt comfortable taking guests to. Well, that just ended today! I had probably the best omelet in my life. Service was outstanding too (thanks Makenzie!). Just check out the picture of my "garbage pale omelet with double hash browns extra crispy"!!! I asked for double hb because as a substitute for bread. It was a $2 upcharge... Food was f'ing perfect!!! I mean PERFECT!! With coffee, tip, and taxes the bill came to a few cents under $30 which for me feels about $5 high in comparison to my "other" favorite breakfast restaurant, but whatever - American Host must know there is zero competition in town. I might not pay that in a bigger city with true competition, but literally, there's no where else to get a descent meal in this entire town. Just goes to show you there still are intelligent, "customer first" orientated restaurants, management, and owners out there. Thank you American Host for a great experience. PLEASE DON'T CHANGE!!! Want to know how much stupidity in the restaurant business there is out there? Just read my other reviews - I'm not easy... American Host nailed it! I'm looking forward to trying lunch sometime. I'll definitely be back, and now YOU know a guaranteed great place to land in this town for a good meal :-)
Food: 4.25. Came by on a Thursday because a person mentioned their Thursday meatloaf special. I was greeted promptly when entering. Unless I'm mistaken, there is only indoor seating. Inside is comfortable. This is not a fancy place. I ordered the Thursday meatloaf special ($14.99) which comes with mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans and carrots, and a biscuit. Food was delivered timely and at the right temperature. Meatloaf portion was generous. I normally eat meatloaf with ketchup but this version with gravy was very good comfort food. Service was efficient but not necessarily friendly. Downside for this place is that they close early (1:30 pm weekdays, 2 pm on weekends). I want to come back to try some of their other menu items. Service: 3.75 Ambiance: 3.5 Value: 4
They daylight was peeking in around 6 am. today. Still no sleep for me. Why, you ask?????? Thoughts of fresh hash and potatoes, biscuits with a creamy sausage gravy, and piping hot coffee consumed my brain. Luckily for me, the American Host restaurant opens at 7 am. I ordered a small breakfast plate. As you can see by the photo, it's large enough for two people. The eggs were fluffy. Chopped sausage and cheese were mingled with the eggs. Let's not forget the biscuits with sausage gravy. The gravy was thick, creamy, and had the right amount of pepper. Hashbrowns were crispy on the outside and steamy inside. I don't want to go leave without tasting everything! As I sip my coffee, I begin to think what a lucky girl I am. Many options, great service, clean, and close to home. Treat yourself. Go to The American Host. Let them know Yelp sent you.
