My server was kind but food was not the greatest. Wine was delicious. Atmosphere was a little tense.
New waiter, Sam, was excellent. Prompt. Knowledgeable. Fun to talk to. Gracious when dessert request wasn't available.
My wife had the lobster pasta and loved it. I had the Maine lobster with rapini as a side. Both were very good. Service was excellent.
The She crab Soup is ?5 stars? hands down! Smooth, creamy absolutely delicious! I could have made my dinner on this soup alone, seasoned to perfection; creamy and served at the right temperature; I dare not even put the oyster crackers in it; whytamper with perfection? The scallops were buttery juicy, I would say extremely well seasoned. Honestly everything that touchedour pallets was extremely delicious; from the crab cake, to the vegetables to the potatoes let?s not forget that amazing SheCrab Soup. I would definitely come back here, the service from Angeline was nothing less than stellar. She provided greatservice coupled by a great personality and was extremely knowledgeable of the dishes. I highly recommend Saltine, it?sdefinitely worth the money spent, remember you get what you pay for and we got that plus more.
My favorite restaurant at The Main! I highly suggest a reservation as they stay busy. Great service all around, I ate here 2 days in a row and was not disappointed. The handcrafted cocktails were delicious and the mussels were my favorite. The servicewas top-notch, very nice, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
