Best place hands down for breakfast

Unrelated really. I just met Siobhan & Harlan at my workplace. I liked them right away. Bright, interesting, fun people. I am going to try Off Main. I sense it will be rad like they are! I'd put money on it. (Love, Rachel from Shoe co xo)

Every visit to Off Main brings delicious food and the sense of mattering. Even when the restaurant is busy the amazing staff and team connect with their guests and include them in their day. It's very special. Also, I can't get enough Mushrooms on Toast!

Edit to reply to owner:
My husband had great experiences when it was Michael Off Main. For MY experience this review is completely warranted.

My husband and I decided to go out for brunch this morning. There was a group of 5 or 6 waiting outside and we walked in to see how busy it was and if there was space for us. The waitress barely acknowledged that we walked in and said we could sit at the open 2 person table. We sat down and she brought us menus and 2 waters that were in pretty warm glasses from the dishwasher with lukewarm water in them. As she set those down she said nothing to us and immediately started talking to the table beside us. Didn't ask if we wanted anything else to drink or say anything else to us.

Time went on and the bigger table came in. The same waitress rushed over took drink AND food orders immediately. Still said nothing to us. She took awhile ringing in their food and then walked back to their table and started chatting. Still said nothing to us. We got up and left. It's wasn't bad service. We had literally no service.

We are extremely disappointed at this visit as this was one of my husband's favorite breakfast spots. We understand when things are busy and my husband has worked kitchens for years but at the point we got there most of the people had already ate and were just enjoying themselves.

First time trying Off Main. It was very good food, friendly staff and service was good. I had the traditional breakfast with bacon and port belly. I liked the idea of the side choices. Everything was prepared just how I like it. However, I did find the pan fried spuds too large for my liking. For breakfast I would suggest they cut them down more so they aren't so large. They were tasty, just too big. Other than that, it was a good breakfast and well presented.

Waited 40 minutes for food after we ordered. Food was cold and I felt expensive.

The food was good when we got it......service was friendly but extremely slow, especially for it not being busy at all. Tables were left dirty. Never got a refill on waters and we had to wave a waitress down to get a refill on coffee.Pretty sure they forgot about one of our orders because three of us got food and my daughter,who ordered pancakes didn't get hers. When we asked we were told it would be out soon. For the money probably won't be back.

The food was excellent, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the staff were warm and friendly. The only downside was a long wait for our order, but the overall experience made it worthwhile. I'd definitely go back!

Absolutely amazing brunch. I met up with a friend here, and got an Iced Mocha and the ‘Hash’ bowl. My goodness was it so good. Every component was very well done, and I enjoyed the meal a lot.
Will definitely be back again and again.

Cute restaurant with tasty enough food. Bit of a wait to be seated but was busy. Staff were pleasant but clearly overrun. Dirty tables sat intended for long periods of time. We waited 20mins to even place our drink order so placed food order at same time. Waited over an hour for our food, felt like they'd forgotten about our table at every step. Food was good but basic and did not feel worth the wait and price. Over $120 for a group of 4 for brunch seems excessive and reinforced why we rarely eat out. Likely won't return.
