| - I have visited 131 Main twice and on both occasions, I left completely satisfied. Our server was pleasent and took the time to go through the menu as this was our first visit. I made a reservation (for the hubs birthday) through open table so we were seated pretty quickly. We had the creamed spinach dip for starters and that was some creammmmmmy goodness. It came with a batch of warm oven toasted bread which I liked better than the usual chips. For the entree, I chose the grilled trout served with herbed aioli and quinoa salad. The trout was meaty and nicely seasoned and instead of spreading the aioli on the fillet, I dipped bits of my trout in it and the combination was heavenly! The quinoa salad was also really nice.
Second time around, it was my mother-in-law's birthday so we decided to reserve a table in the back room. We wanted to be able to laugh and enjoy each other's company w/out disturbing other patrons. Our server Brian was great, he made small talk, cracked a few jokes and took our drink order. I ordered the double dip for starters and enjoyed it for real. The guacamole was chunky and the cheese dip was sharp cheddar with bits of bacon, and red peppers. A Fantastic combination!
For the entree I ordered the special; pan seared halibut served with a chilled wild rice salad. It was soooo good, The wild rice salad really stood out with the combo of cranberries, walnuts and rasins. It was a sweet-n-savory treat. For dessert they allowed us to bring our own cheesecakecreme icing cake from yours truly-Harris Teeter, and served it to us after we sang my m-o-l happy birthday.
The only reason I didn't give them five stars is b/c althouh I made a reservation for my m-o-l's b-day celebration we waited for about 15 minutes to be seated. Reservation = no wait, gracias!
All-in-all, 131 Main is becoming a go to spot for family celebrations :-)
