Excellent blue crab salad. As always, excellent cod entree. Excellent chocolate cake desert.
Everything was great. We sat outside and it was very enjoyable. Food was very good and reasonably priced. Our waitress was absolutely delightful!
Pleasantly surprised by the food. We started with a fried green tomato app that was quite good. Both the butterfish special and the horseradish crusted cod were prepared well and were delicious. After an initial delay in service, our waitress made sure the manager knew and we were compensated with a lovely baked cookie and ice cream dessert.
There were six at our table. The staff was excellent. I have eaten here about a dozen times over several years. Out of the six meals ordered only the butter fish entre was considered good. The chicken breast (over salad) and port loin were really overcooked as was the cod. One of the "specials" was a Korean (I think) short ribs, which were so finely sliced and dried out that I wasn't sure what kind of meat it was - and not much of it. I believe some sort of "bowl" was ordered as an entre but the diner didn't comment one way or another. Appetizer of mussels was good, bacon covered scallops were OK, but the bacon really overpowered the scallop - could have been wrapped around anything, and a chowder type soup were OK. The waiter was responsive and removed the cost of the chicken breast and comped one glass of wine. We did tell him everything was overcooked and he might have comped more if we had complained more. Mixed cocktails had been ordered as were several glasses of wine. No dessert. Also, a charge for bread for the table....the restaurant can't afford that? Seems petty.... Very disappointed - probably won't be back anytime soon.
Wonderful dinner, we sat in the bar which was lively and fun. Great food. Appreciate the consistency of this restaurant!
Great experience in fact so good on Friday, we returned on Wednesday. Lily was our excellent server both nights.
Our server Lilly was a breath of fresh air. Just the right level of attentiveness, a great attitude, and a cheerful demeanor. The whole experience was Top Notch.
The quality of the food, selection,and service continue very high here. At a time when other spots are having declining quality, it's nice to know tht 74 Main continues to deliver!
Love the Food and the service here. Great variety of tasty items! Hoping they will bring back the incredible Brussel sprout appetizer they had. :-)
We had an excellent experience. We were accompanied by our 13-month old grandson and were promptly provided with a high chair and children's menu. They also brought his food out early so he remained occupied while we enjoyed drinks and appetizers. Caitlyn provided great service and the food and cocktails were excellent.

It was a last minute decision to eat here. It turned out to be a great one. The food was good, but the service was excellent, Erin was fantastic. Very attentive, and anticipated our needs/wants. Honestly she really made the experience. We do dine out at various venues, and Erin has now set the bar to a new level. We all noticed and commented (even our 2 young adult sons). A perfect example to all servers. Thank You.
The food was delicious, our waitress Jennifer was excellent. However, the hostess definatetly needs some schooling. My wife & I were enjoying a nice intimate anniversary dinner & although there were plenty of available tables, she sat a family with three noisy children directly behind us which spoiled our special evening.
12pm on Tuesday, 6/17. I had the horseradish crusted cod. Delicious. It was cooked perfectly. I sat at the bar and the bartender was great. She was friendly, helpful with the menu, and generally made the experience an awesome one.
Stopped in on way to VT for lunch today. Grilled Chicken Maple sandwich was delicious but the best part was Jennifer the bartender/waitress was amazing. Great place to eat and relax
SIx of us enjoyed an early dinner at 74 Main on a Saturday night. We ordered a variety of items from cocktails to dessert and were happy with just about everything served to us. Service was excellent.
