What a great restaurant. Food, service and ambience all five star. We had the crab cakes and the prime rib at our table for four. Both were declared to be the best we ever had. The two wives shared the "grilled" artichoke. Very unique presentation and way of doing an artichoke. They loved it and thought it was excellent. This was a special dinner for the four of us and we picked this restaurant to do it. 131 main came through for us with an excellent experience.

I've been going for YEARS...and I'm pretty sure I've never been disappointed or dissatisfied. Everything is fresh and not frozen. I haven't had everything on the menu, but pretty darn close. Helpful hint if you're a smaller party the bar area is located at the entrance and you do not need a reservation. Food portions are pretty large. Amazing Apps, Salads, Sandwiches, steak, chicken, danish ribs, etc... Ambiance is great for business get togethers or a date night. Outdoor seating with a fire pit is also available on the street side of the building. Tuesday is 1/2 bottles of wine (good list) and you can cork it up and take it home if you don't finish. Enjoy!

The service and food are phenomenal. Came for the artichokes and left so happy, we had amazing shrimp and grits, roast beef sandwiches and the crab cakes were maybe the best I've ever had. So happy with the staff, drinks atmosphere. We will be back again and again.

Great food, service and atmosphere! We had a reservation and were seated promptly. Our server was quick with our beverages and appetizers while we waited on our mains. Everyone was really impressed with their dishes. The stand outs were the Caesar salad, prime rib, pineapple/soy ribeye, filet mignon and crab cake! The food was hot, fresh and seasoned well! We couldn't leave without dessert and the crème brûlée and key lime pie were superb! The espresso was also really smooth and a great way to end the night. We will definitely return soon!

ALWAYS give the DAILY SPECIALS a try! They are guaranteed fresh & unique! I've been to this location several times & I always order one of the Daily Specials~never been disappointed Staff are VERY professional & attentive at this location. Again, after several visits, never had an issue or less than stellar service I love the casual vibes of this location. The dark interior is offset by well lit tables. It creates individual cozy nooks. The atmosphere of this location just adds more 'comfort' to the comfort food vibe. ***Do not let the prices deter you~food is high quality & very delicious***

I loved everything about this place! The service is wonderful. We arrived early for our reservation and although the bar and tables were full, we were promptly greeted by Yasmine the bartender with their cocktail list and offered us a spot on the list for the next available table at the bar. We opted out since we wanted a more quiet dinner. I Had the Pearfection martini. It was refreshing, made with clean ingredients greygoose pear,lemon...and my husband said it was the best unsweet tea he's ever had. Seated at our table, Daniel made some great recommendations. We had the cornbread- delish and the tuna stack- ahi tuna, cucumber and mango served with crackers that really held up & didn't shatter. I ordered the scallops and my husband the Filet- perfectly cooked MR. Then we shared the crème brûlée and I had an espresso martini- perfection! We will def be back

Lunch bite was good. Ample portions and huge menu. The setting is intimate and cozy. I'm not a fan of the fries, but the chicken was moist and smoked.

This may very well be one of the best dining experiences I have had. The food and the service were both stellar. The ambience is, well, hard to describe. They have these square drop lights that focus on the table top so that your food is well lit but the area around the table is dim and cozy. The staff absolutely knocked it out of the park! I never had a dirty fork. I never had an empty glass. My wife got up to go to the bathroom and they swooped in and replaced her napkin. They never felt like they were in the way or intrusive. Stunning attention to detail! I had the steak with the demi-glacé. It was cooked absolute perfection, and the boat of demi-glacé was so rich and flavorful. I also had the side wedge and roasted brussels sprouts, also excellent. This is our new date night go to spot!
