    Pretzel bites with beer cheese and mustard, loaded tater tots, crispy buffalo cauliflower
    A. S.

    Went to lunch with a friend yesterday afternoon. It was our first time at Tavern on Main. We sat outside and we got the crispy buffalo cauliflower, the pretzel bites and the loaded tater tots. Everything was absolutely amazing. Tavern on Main takes standard bar food and makes it so much tastier! Out server Kelly was wonderful and we will definitely request her every time we go back. We did walk in so we could get seated outside and the bar is beautiful. I also like that it's 21 and over so kids cannot eat there. It's nice to have places that are strictly for adults!

    My husband and I was trying to go to a different restaurant but it was closed due to a fire. We stopped in here and got some food. We had shared the lobster roll as an appetizer and it was delicious. For our entree, I got the short rib grilled cheese and he got the honey sriracha salmon. The grilled cheese was missing a little seasoning on the meat. It's good for someone who is watching their sodium content. My husband said that the salmon wasn't spicy. Overall, it was good.

    Very solid dining experience overall! We love that there is a restaurant on the square that is 21+ all day. It makes for a very relaxed atmosphere that's also vibrant and fun. Service was extremely nice and quick! The variety of mules they have is awesome, and I had a regular and a raspberry and would recommend both! For food we had two burgers and the chicken tacos. I wish the chicken was more shredded than diced, but that may just be a personal preference. However I appreciate that there are gluten free options and accommodations for dietary restrictions! The fingerling potatoes were amazing and probably my favorite part of the meal. We will definitely be back!

    Ahi tuna tacos.

    An inviting atmosphere for anyone. Service with Sydney was outstanding. Food was beautifully prepared and delicious. Crowd was diverse and pleasant !

    Met friends for lunch on Friday afternoon and the place was hoppin'. Our server Selena was so great and the "wonderland" makes the whole room a buzzy, fun vibe. Having said that tho - our server mentioned weekend nights are packed right now and they're working with timetables. Heads up if you're making plans to visit during peak hours. I love this place for their patio in the summer and the food never disappoints. Good addition to the Region!

    Christmas decorations

    Came in for my birthday because we were in the area and I had a hankering for a cheeseburger. We were promptly seated and the server came over to greet us within minutes. Wife mentioned it was my birthday, but I let the server know I didn't want any singing or theatrics. Too old for that stuff. The place was pretty packed on Saturday afternoon and there was more than ample Christmas decorations which is always a plus for me. We started with some cheese curds and I ordered their bacon cheeseburger. Really wanted a mushroom and Swiss but this is not something they offer. Don't remember what the wife ordered. The curds were okay. Had better, had worse. Our entrees came out shortly after. Food was hot, but that was the only good thing about my burger. The meat was over seasoned and dry. The candied bacon was too sweet. I couldn't even finish the burger. Wife wasn't thrilled by her food either. Unlikely to return except for drinks maybe.

    Small space. Over crowded. Feels like you are sitting on top of other tables. Food is just ok. Drinks are not bad. Wouldn't go back.

We started with the Mediterranean board, which was delicious! Lots of great dips and naan. We would've enjoyed a few more grapes and cucumbers though. I also ordered the cucumber mocktail, which was super refreshing and tasty. I would highly recommend! The main issue was the timing, we were seated, ordered, and waited quite a bit. When our food finally arrived, our meals were unfortunately cold. My steak was cold but my rice was a little warm, all fries and Mac and cheese were really cold, and the burger was room temp but we were so hungry we went ahead and ate. I did mention it to our waitress as she asked how it all came out. She was very kind and offered to remake the dishes or comp dessert, which we appreciated but declined. Both she and the manager were polite - it just seemed like a busy night and our order got lost in the shuffle. Just mediocre for our time and money. Even so, we made the best of it, the kids had fun playing hangman and "I Spy" on the kids' menu with us while we waited. I'd still recommend you try them out!

I and a few other family members were invited by my mother and by the time I walked out, I was wondering why this place wasn't packed wall‑to‑wall every night. Let's start with Monday's AYCE perch -- absolutely outstanding. Lightly breaded, perfectly seasoned, and fried just right. It's the kind of perch that makes you rethink every mediocre fish fry your uncle threw that your family tolerated. If you're a perch person, this is your new weekly ritual. Then came the walleye, WATCH OUT NOW, and honestly, my sister wasn't prepared. She said it was flaky, flavorful, and cooked with the kind of herbs & spices she recognized that said, "Yeah, we know exactly what the hell we're doing." "It's the kind of fish that makes you pause mid‑bite and appreciate life for a second." But the real surprise of the night? The bacon, mushroom, and American cheese hamburger -- unforgettable. This thing deserves its own billboard. Juicy, stacked, and unapologetically delicious. Every bite felt like a small celebration. On top of all that, the place is spotless. I mean impressively clean. Floors, tables, bar area -- everything looked like someone had just finished polishing it. You can tell the staff takes pride in the space. And speaking of the space... Yes, the building once housed a gentleman's club. But now? It's so clean, so friendly, and so well‑run that the only thing dancing is your taste buds. The only thing exotic here is how good the food is. Pivot Lounge has officially earned a spot on my "must return" list. Great food, great service, great atmosphere -- and a glow‑up story worthy of its own documentary.

When our food arrived, I cut into mine and it was extremely rare--so undercooked that one side of the patty was still pink. My son's burger was cooked correctly, so I know mine clearly wasn't. When our waitress checked on us, I explained the issue, and she politely apologized and took the burger back. A few minutes later, the manager on duty brought the same burger back upstairs, slammed it down, and asked with an attitude, "What is the problem?" I explained that it was undercooked and that I had ordered medium well. She then asked, "What do you want me to do with this?" while just standing there staring at me. After acting irritated, she asked if I wanted a new burger or wanted "this one" recooked. The idea of them recooking a burger I had already cut into and handled felt completely unsanitary. Her attitude throughout the interaction was awful. I declined a replacement, and she huffed that she'd remove it from the bill. Unfortunately, it got even worse. Just minutes later, an earwig crawled out of my friend's salad. We were horrified. We took a picture, caught the bug, and asked another server to get the manager. When she returned, she walked up with her hand on her hip and said, "Now what?" We handed her the napkin with the bug, and instead of apologizing, she opened it right there on the table, let the bug crawl out, scoffed at us, and said, "Fine, I'll take that off the bill too." At that point, my friend was covering her mouth in disgust after realizing she had been eating a salad with a bug in it. Rather than showing concern or professionalism, the manager snapped, "What do you want?! I didn't put the bug in the salad." I have never experienced such unsanitary conditions combined with such shockingly hostile customer service. Mistakes can happen, but the manager's behavior was beyond unacceptable. We left disgusted and will absolutely never return.
