    This is arguably the best quality fine dining food on Main Street. A hidden gem for sure! Love the patio for nicer weather- the blankets are a nice touch! Staff is very nice and owner/chef very personable, knowledgeable, and passionate about what he does. We will be back!

    Great Easter Lunch at The Main House. Our Server Brett was very good and took great care of us. My wife had the filet and I had the the tenderloin medallions. Both were perfectly cooked. Owner stopped by to make sure all was well. Great experience overall!

    The staff was so kind and accomodating. I made a reservation for 8 instead of 9–completely my error. No problem, they just quickly got another table and made it work. I had friends from Ecuador who do not speak English. No problem our server happened to speak both English and Spanish. When getting seated, one in our party knocked a vase off the hearth—shattered everywhere. No problem, they grabbed a dustpan and broom and swept it right up. The food is always so, so good. We had a great evening.

    The food was good, except for the desserts that need a lot of improvement. The setting and the service were excellent.
