I never stopped at 131 Main in the past because I always thought it was too upscale to just stop in and grab lunch. It always looked to me like this is a place you make reservations to go for dinner or a place you go for lunch and drop $20 per person. I was pleasantly surprised when we were able to sit down for a casual lunch and the prices were about average for a sit down restaurant.
The indoor dining area looked very nice and comfortable but we sat outside. I thoroughly enjoyed their outdoor seating since we had such amazing weather.
The service was great. All the servers were very attentive and they used a tag team approach at our table. Our drink glasses were never less than half full.
The food was pretty decent. We started with the cast iron cornbread which was a huge portion (can easily be shared between 3-4 people) and pretty tasty. I went with the cajun fish sandwich for lunch and the hubby got the club sandwich. I couldn't taste too much cajun spice on my fish, but it did have a good flavor (although it was a little too salty). The fish sandwich could've used a little more sauce of some sort in my opinion. While the hubby's club sandwich was just your basic run of the mill club, it was still quite delicious. The best part about our meals were the thin cut not too crunchy but not too mushy fries. They were wonderful.
The food didn't impress me too much, but the service and atmosphere will bring me back. Not to mention I haven't had a chance to try their banana cream pie yet.
