About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
The best award-winning steakhouse in the area! Worth the drive from Banner Elk (13 miles), Beech Mountain, Sugar Mountain (30 minute drive) , Johnson City or wherever you are. Americano Steak House is a local, veteran-owned restaurant featuring hand-cut steaks, fresh seafood, amazing salads, 1/2 pound steak-burgers, decadent desserts and the only full liquor bar in the East Tennessee mountains will over 100 wines by the bottle and glass.

We kindly ask that you do not show up early for your reservation, but simply on time. We are a small, boutique steakhouse that focuses on exceptional food and incredible service in the mountains of East Tennessee and typically cannot seat guests earlier than their reserved time.

While we have always discouraged them, our policy towards no shows/same day cancelations MUST be firm. No shows and same day cancellations are the plague of the industry and we ask of you to uphold your end of this commitment as we are thrilled to provide on our end.

    Very delicious!! The restaurant could use a little more "atmosphere befitting a high-end restaurant", it felt more like a good diner. I know we are in the mountains but if you want to compete 🙃. The food was definitely on par!!!

    Food was good as well as the service. It’s called a steak house but did not have the feel of one. It was way more casual but that was ok. I will return in the future but it didn’t wow me.

    First time eating at Americano Steak House in Roan Mountain, TN. After reading reviews, we arrived excited with high expectations . However, I’d rate our experience 2.5 out of 5. Here’s why: First, they were out of the house favorites (Hawaiian steak & the mashed potatoes that went with the entrees). The dining room was super loud and wasnt even full. Kids were screaming, loud adults, etc. Tables are put too close together i couldn’t even hear my spouse or server speaking to me. The chicken Marsala was way too tough i couldn’t finish it, and what should have came with it wasn’t available because there were no mashed potatoes left to serve. So all I had on the side were two little pieces of broccolini (crunchy and not steamed enough). My spouse got Jim’s filet & it was far undercooked and super fatty. I know this from eating at Gourmet and Juniper and a lot of different places in the area as well, fillet mignon should never be that fatty and full of gristle. The knife should glide right through it. When you are paying over $50 for a steak, you want it to be made correctly the first time-we didn’t send anything back or waste any more of our time there so we decided to get our check. Before the 20% tip, it was $120 for an uncooked steak, unedible chicken, and 2 drinks. My spouse had Coke and I got one glass of Pinot Grigio. (I asked for extra lemons in the beginning and my waitress never brought them, I had to ask twice just for lemons for water). I thoroughly enjoyed the Pinot Grigio. It was only $7 a glass, not bad for the wine which is why I’m rating 2.5 stars. I don’t understand the extra liquor, county, & state taxes. That was an extra $8 to our bill just for my wine. Overall we haven’t decided if we will or will not be returning for the not so good food and too loud of an atmosphere to enjoy family time together or date night if you can’t hear one another. Maybe it was just an off night for them but we were not pleased or impressed at all.

    Americano Steak House never disappoints. Great service, good food, well prepared, combined with small town USA charm where you are likely to see folks in coveralls sitting next to a teen couple dressed to go to the prom. The salmon and grouper we declared to deserve high praise while the kids enjoyed the a salad then burgers ‘n fries. I had the filet, grilled perfectly to a cool medium rare. Ambience? Personally, I enjoy the small town look and feel while might prefer white table cloths and candle light (at twice the price). No rushing you through dinner, take your time and enjoy a wonderful meal, the well stocked and delicious deserts (be sure to try the bread pudding). Americano Strakhouse Roan Mountain Tennessee is a treat you should not miss.

    Our dining experience was as good as it gets! Yummy pasta with lump crab and shrimp…Scampi sauce! Hoping it will be a permanent addition to the menu.

    Excellent food & hospitality. We had reservations for seven but a couple had to cancel at the last minute. When we arrived and informed the hostess of the changes she was quick to make the arrangements for five instead of seven. I highly recommend Americano Steak House.& Wine Bar.

    Loved the presentation you get with the smoked maple old fashioned! Tasty appetizer and a great steak perfectly cooked. Brussels sprouts are to die for and the carrots cake was excellent! Great service to boost the experience.
