   I went to OpenTable to book a fine steakhouse. Kirby‘s was booked up for three hours, Ferrari‘s Italian, then Bob’s chophouse also full. When my husband came home from work, he said let’s go to Oak And Main. We eat there at least twice a week and the food is very good. They make a wonderful Elderflower Martini with Gin and prime rib only on Sundays, so tonight was perfect. We’ve been going since they first opened. Always a good meal. We’ve tried almost everything on the menu so I ordered their barramundi for the first time. Wonderful!

   The Sunday Prime rib special we had was tough, but last time it was great! We could only eat 1/2, the fries were just okay. The barramundi fish was excellent as well as the caper sauce on it. The kale spinach salad was our favorite. Our waiter was not as attentive as previous visits. Took a long time to get his attention for our check.

   Excellent service and friendly wait staff. The food was so good: shrimp cocktail, calamari, spinach & kale salad (with figs and pears) in the best balsamic onion dressing, and steak frites on point. We didn’t have cocktails this time, but have loved them on past visits. We are always too stuffed for dessert!

   We had a girls Sunday Funday brunch/lunch and Oak and Main was amazing! I’ve been here quite a few times before as well and loved it!

   Great food, great service, but the kitchen was so backed up that our entrees took over an hour to arrive. The server was very good at communicating with us, but I was a bit disappointed that no one really said sorry or even offered any compensation for the delay. We sat on the side patio that has bench booth seating - it was so comfortable and a great environment. The chopped salad was soooo good!

   Hi, Mike. I'm sorry to hear your food took a while - thank you for letting us know. Glad you enjoyed the salad, it is definitely one of our best sellers. Hope to see you again soon.

   We had a fairly early reservation so we arrived at the restaurant before the crowd. We were seated at a very nice and comfortable booth. Our server JP was there promptly and was helpful with suggestions on cocktails, wine, appetizers, and more. The restaurant is what I would call casual upscale. It isn't a white tablecloth and dim lights kind of place. It has a sports bar type of vibe with TVs in the lively bar area. The drink prices were very reasonable and they have a nice selection of higher end whiskeys. We had appetizers including a smoked salmon feature, shrimp cocktail, and calamari. All three appetizers were fantastic. The presentation was simple, but the flavors were really excellent. I ordered the tenderloin filet medium. My hopes weren't high given that I wasn't in some high-end steakhouse, but I was blown away with the quality. My steak was an absolutely perfect medium, so flavorful, moist, and tender. The sides of green beans had a perfect amount of garlic flavor. My wife ordered the baramundi and she liked the fish, but thought the cream sauce on top was a bit excessive. For dessert, we had the carrot cake and it was just ok. We wouldn't bother getting the carrot cake again. They also did a decaf espresso martini that was really delicious. Long story short, if you are looking for a chef that can turn out gourmet dishes in a casual environment for a reasonable price, Oak and Main is definitely worth a visit. The drinks, appetizers, and steak were the highlights for us. I'd go again in a heartbeat for the drinks, appetizers, and tenderloin filet. I'd just skip the cream sauce on the baramundi and try a desert other than the carrot cake. My only other observation was our waiter was looking to turn the table quickly for the next guests. It wasn't super high pressure, but when you're asked for your entre order before you get appetizers, or your desert order before you finish the entre, it felt a bit rushed to turn the table.

   Enjoyed the meal, service and casual (but nice) atmosphere at Oak and Main. Salad could have used a bit more dressing that I'm sure I could have gotten had I asked. Great little downtown area with lots of choices. Will be back!

    Waitstaff is professional, friendly and accommodating. Food was perfectly prepared and timing was spot on. Price point was amazing for the quality of the dishes (I had the Steak Frites (prepared perfectly rare (as requested) now my new favorite dish btw) . We had a perfect experience and in this economy, I am clapping my hands with this meal. I will recommend this restaurant to all who will listen.
