Main Street Bistro, Monroe NC

Food was bland -too small to offer eating at bar

This is such a cute restaurant. We wandered here by accident after the place we wanted to go had a 2 hour wait. I am so glad that happened because this place was such a gem. There were 5 of us and they had to do a little adjusting of tables but we were seated within 10 minutes.

The food was wonderful, service was great and prices were reasonable. There is public parking not far, so you can park for free and walk right to the restaurant.

We will definately be back.

Stumbled upon this cute little place when taking a walk through downtown Monroe and we were not disappointed! The service was great, everyone was super friendly and quick. And the food...delicious!! We have never seen our young daughter eat so much so you know it was good!! Thank you guys for a great experience and awesome food when that is hard to find these days!

Cute little place! Found it randomly on Google when in the area and so happy we decided to try it. The food, especially the fries, were delicious and reasonably priced. Everything was very fresh. Service was quick and everyone was attentive. We will definitely be back to try the desserts next time!

Parking: Free street parking and there is a small lot nearby

I really liked this intimate place, I recommend the fried ravioli and definitely the chicken Marsala and hash brown casserole! Good sized portions and friendly service the only thing I could recommend is cooking fresh veggies instead of the readymade kind as side options. I met the proprietor Lisa she was wonderful and really cared to make her patrons happy. When I am in the Charlotte area again this is definitely one of my go to to spots!!!

My mom and I moved to Monroe last December and several months ago we came across this restaurant through FB. We decided to check it out and it’s absolutely fantastic!!! They change up their dessert menu frequently, which is sad because I fell in love with the apple bomb and it’s sold out :( I tried the chocolate chip ice cream sandwich and it’s just as good, but enough for 2-3 people! I love this restaurant!

First time here, it did not disappoint! The waiter was so polite and helpful explaining the menu with making recommendations as well! Nothing negative to say about this place! The food was so fresh, everything was seasoned perfectly! I had the all angus beef burger with cheese, added bacon and my husband had the blackened chicken Alfredo which I tasted a bite of … sauce was incredible! The French Fries were the best I’ve had in years anywhere! The ranch dressing was amazing as well which is important to me when I’m eating out anywhere! Salads are not iceberg lettuce, but good quality greens that were delicious and fresh!
We will definitely be regulars here and I’m dying to go back and try the filet! I love a great seasoned steak! Already have plans with another couple for it, I’m not even ashamed!
The BEST RESTAURANT I’ve been to locally in years!
