    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.
