American Son Is a New Eatery Near Your Apartment

Eating at new hot spot American Son almost feels like you’re eating in someone’s house. Almost. From the relaxed, greenery-filled dining area, to the fresh, simply prepared food, American Son is a refreshing addition to Eaton. But let’s face it. None of your friends or family are inviting you over for a banh mi-style pizza or fresh lamb burger topped with smoked mozzarella and pickled veggies. 

American Son is the labor of love from celebrated chef Tim Ma, and represents the melting pot of cultures and cuisines that make up many American homes. Choose from small plates like Impossible meatballs or Meyer lemon calamari, or larger offerings that are perfect to pass and share. But get to American Son quickly if you preview the menu and see something you love. The dishes are based on what’s fresh and seasonal, so your favorite might disappear with the changing of the weather. There’s a lot of buzz around this long-awaited new spot, so be sure to make a reservation via the website before you visit. Delivery is also available from Uber Eats.
