Wonderful food! I had the grilled romaine salad with ahi tuna! Highly recommend! This place a some really good options for a nice steak and Tuesday’s are 10 dollar burger day. Staff were courteous and quick. Located on Fountain Square it is a nice place for a stroll after dinner.
My husband and I had a wonderful dinner. We started with Cajun Spring Rolls and then had Filet Mignon (add Oscar) and Champagne Chicken. Our waiter had asked if we were there for any special occasion and we said our 29th anniversary. He surprised us with a very special dessert, cheesecake drizzled with raspberry sauce. Everything was amazing!!!
Just Wow! So every single item I had tonight was perfect! The Tuna appetizer! The Caesar salad with Chicken! The drinks! The child size grilled chicken! The service from Sydney! They all hit a home run! I hope to be back sooner than later! I ate outside and it was perfect! If you are looking for a great place with …

One of the finest restaurants in Bowling Green. Our waiter, Chandler, continued the consistently fine service. Orders were cooked perfectly. The Champagne Chicken is a signature dish. Loved the flourless white chocolate cake to finish it off. The bar is known for their strong pours.
Finally made it out to 440 Main to celebrate my wife’s birthday & we couldn’t have had a better experience. Our server Estella took great care of us throughout the meal, never leaving us wanting for anything. For food, we had the Cajun Spring Rolls, Deviled Eggs, Bourbon Salmon & Smoked Porkchop. Everything was fresh, prepared & flavored well and …
We came on Valentine’s Day— surely one of the busiest days of the year but the service was still outstanding. They had some wonderfully tasty Valentine’s Day special drinks that me and my date both enjoyed greatly. Several servers came by and complimented our outfits, it was very sweet. Our server was Mikayla, and she was outstanding, always attentive and …
