Filet Au Poivre
Summer S.

I've been coming to 440 since college but I no longer live in bowling green and only eat it a couple of times per year. Let's talk appetizers. The Nashville hot burrata is unique and tasty. The spinach and artichoke dip has changed for the worse. It used to be the best spin dip I've ever had but I would not order this new version again. We also tried the deviled eggs and they were good. For entrees we got a salmon Caesar salad, the filet au poivre , and a spinach salad. My filet au poivre was delicious as always. Those garlic mashed potatoes are everything. My friend was celebrating a birthday so they brought her out free cheese cake and it was light and fluffy and amazing. I had some red wine left so I ordered the flourless chocolate cake. It was meh. Wouldn't order again. They should bring back the flourless chocolate torte with raspberry sauce.

6 oz fillet and perfect Manhattan!!

Local gem alert! I chose this restaurant based on Yelp reviews and sat at the bar just like always. The bar has an old school local feel. It's a little, but not too, loud and reminded me of places I used to go with my dad. Sidney, Todd (who was enjoying his first night as a bartender) and Gillian teamed up to take great care of me. Service was excellent and I struggled with the menu because everything looked so good. I settled on the Cajun spring rolls and the small (6 oz) fillet, medium rare. The spring roll appetizer consisted of three spring rolls and a wonderful sauce. My fillet was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. The garlic mashed potatoes were excellent. All of my food came out hot. If this place was in my neighborhood, I would eat here once a week. Cheers!

Cajun Spring Rolls (Appetizer)

I found this place on Yelp and saw that it had amazing reviews. When you walk in, there are two options - on the left is 440 Main, and on the right is Micki's on Main. We decided to eat at Micki's, which has a similar menu to 440 Main. Their atmosphere was rockin' - literally! They had two gentlemen singing with guitars, and the entire place was singing along, definitely our kind of spot. Our server was super nice, had blondish/brown curly hair, was tall - attentive, and was on top of us whenever we needed refills, etc. We started with their cajun spring rolls, crispy outside, and jam-packed with flavor and spices. The mango BBQ sauce it laid on, I could have drank it was so good. For dinner, I tried their stuffed chicken with chorizo and spinach and swapped the side for their risotto - exceptional. A thick piece of chicken, sliced in half and stuffed, the risotto was creamy a bit al dente, but still delicious. For drinks I tried their champagne/gin seasonal/new years drink, it was balanced nicely. The food was yummy, the music was great, and the drinks were top-notch! Highly recommend stopping by.

Redfish special

The food was EXCELLENT! I had a special of the day, Red Fish, that was to DIE FOR! The ambiance was a little too dark, making it difficult to read the menu. And the fact that there's a VERY popular bar right through open doorways made conversation pretty difficult. We were a group of 20, and only had one waiter assigned, so service was pretty slow. For such a classy place, I would've thought that they should have someone assisting him with water refills and clearing of plates. It was good, but I feel it could've been better.

Very busy Saturday night and only one waiter for a group of twenty. Handled graciously and as best as could be expected. Formal setting by candlelight. The food was very good with designated gf offerings. Choices could be made from a dinner menu or a more casual bar menu. Set in a quaint old building in the downtown area. The bar area was lively with music and a jammed crowd who were obviously enjoying a Saturday night.

Cajun spring rolls and gumbo

Mickis is the bar next to 440 Main and is top notch! You can order from the bar menu or even the fulll 440 menu! Food is plentiful at reasonable prices so recommend checking it out!!

In Bowling Green there is a place called 440 Main...a building built for John Getty in 1871. Sat at the bar and Jillian got me set up with some water and a beer while I looked things over. You can order from the 440 Main or the Micki's on Main menu (both under same ownership) so I asked Jillian for advice. Based on her suggestion I went with the Cajun Spring Rolls and the special Summer Vegetable Cioppino. The spring rolls were incredible...highly recommend you order an extra helping of the Mango Barbeque Sauce cause it is addicting. I've never had Cioppino but this was loaded with all kinds of seafood and veggies in a robust tomato wine sauce. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the "leek hay"...just did not like the texture but it was easy to move it aside. The food was great and the service from Jillian was excellent.

Tuesday night is burger night on the bar side of 440 called Micki's on Main. For $7.95 you get to choose from several different types of burgers that come with nicely seasoned fries. We were lucky to snag a table inside. It was too hot outside for me to eat. The table was dirty but the waitress was there pretty quickly to clean it and bring us menus. We started with the bbq shrimp and grits appetizer. Highly recommend it. I had the special bar old fashioned which was very nicely done. Just because you're in the bar doesn't mean you can't order off the dining room menu. My date choose a garden salad, filet and French fries. I had the cheddar bacon burger and fries. It's a nice big burger and fries for this price! Tip: it is very busy on Tuesday if you come at prime dinner time. Be patient and you will find a table or a place at the bar. No reservations.

Every dish is perfect, and the French Onion soup may be the best I have ever tasted. The pork cracklings are better than ever, the egg roll is unique and flavorful with the ginger sauce; wow. The tender loin you could cut with a fork, and the potatoes were perfect. The flavors danced like a lullaby on the tip of my tongue. The burger was fantastic. If I could give them a 10, I would. If you want a meal deal, this is not the place. The restored building is done perfectly. The art is impeccable. The vibe is luxurious, but not pompous. This ranks at the top with Tony's--two of the best places in Bowling Green. This one, because of history and the architecture, comes out on top.

One side was a rounded booth and my companion was in a chair. The ambiance of the piano playing made it feel so upscale. I'm usually skeptical of a buffet brunch but every single item was top notch! Fruit, pastries, sausages, bacon, biscuits, gravy, and the pick your own ingredients omelet made quickly and very professionally. If you want to feel like you're actually at an upscale restaurant but you don't need to drive out of town go try this place, The chocolate croissant tasted like it was from Paris!

Y'at! A colleague suggested we grab a sandwich from Pirogue's. Never heard of them but, we have…read moreseveral food trucks in the area and I'm a fan. After seeing the trailer from a distance, I see they follow the traditional N'awlins colors! So why not? One of the pictures on social media shows beignets. Who doesn't like beignets? No reasonable person, short of you gluten-free folks who would probably admit they would love to just crunch one down. Sorry, Let's leave it for later. Friendly staff and the smells are good. We split a Shrimp and Crayfish Poboy. It come with fries and remoulade, which is mayonnaise based herb/capers thick sauce. Very fresh - very. I'll say I've eaten, in New Orleans, a few poboys. This was as good as all and better than some. The shrimp was delicious as well as the sweet little crayfish. Deep-fried and plenty of 'em covering the French roll. Top it with a little lettuce and some tomato. Yum yum. You can find these fine folks on social media (to figure out what you want) and in-person in Glasgow and Franklin. Just have to look and see. They have gator too. We just gonna have to go back. Here's the secret. I didn't eat a beignet. Don't judge. I'll eat one later. I'm just afraid they will be better than Cafe Du Monde and I so enjoy Cafe Du Monde. Which now makes me wonder if they have coffee. Hmmm. Need to ask. I'll let you know.
