    Cholie is amazing. She is an asset to Main Street Social, and a key reason that I return. She recommended the Bright Angel Cabernet Sauvignon which was excellent, because I was having the Berkshire Meatball, which was excellent. The Apple Salad was perfect for the Springtime as a starter.

    Starters and main courses were good, But not exceptional. The desserts ( bread pudding and tiramisu are overpriced for a low industrial grade). Waiter on duty did a nice job.Overall the quality has decreased over the years

    Incredible food and drink! I will most certainly be back. Old fashioned “Milwaukee” was spot on. Shrimp and octopus apps were awesome. French onion soup perhaps the best I’ve had. And the braised short rib was amazing. Gem of a spot!

    I had a great brunch at Main Street Social with six friends on a Sunday at noon. We made a reservation ahead of time, which made getting seated a breeze. The Bloody Marys were a big hit at our table, and I personally loved the Lower Wacker Drive cocktail—it was incredibly refreshing with a delicious minty cucumber flavor. For brunch, I had the Short Rib Hash, and it was delicious. The meat was tender and the dish was packed with flavor. Our server was friendly, patient, and made our dining experience effortless. Overall, a great spot for brunch with a welcoming atmosphere.

    Main Street Social is one of my favorite spots. The bar area always has a good vibe. Colie, the bartender is amazing . The food is delicious, generous portions, the servers are all friendly and attentive to whatever you might need. Great place to host special events be it a shower, birthday or business gathering. If you haven’t been definitely worth checking out

    Hostess was super nice and friendly. Tom, our waiter was friendly and laid back. Food was AMAZING. The only negative was it was a little loud. Our first time and such a great experience.
