Main Eatery

Main Eatery has the best cooked chicken I've ever had.
I can't stress enough how good this chicken was.
The gentleman working at the counter explained how it was prepared, with seasoning, cooking, and pressing.
I listened and understood, but I didn't fully grasp what he was saying.
I ordered a typical salad and got the chicken on top as a protein.
As per my usual style, I eat the salad first and save the protein for the end as a little treat.
Even after consuming my salad, the chicken was still warm.
And it was still moist.
And it was definitely delicious.
But the thing I couldn't believe was just how moist and tender it was.
I'm so used to salads with cold and dry chicken on top.
This was anything but typical.
The salad came with two cups of dressing on the side.
I didn't even use them, that's how good this chicken was.
Get whatever else you want here, but make sure you try the grilled chicken too. My wife got the tuna sandwich and really enjoyed it.
She shared a quarter of it with our kid, who also said it was great.
Our kid also got the tomato bisque.
Our kid's complaint about it was that it was too sweet.
I took a few bites and I agreed.
However, I also finished the 3/4's of the bowl remaining that my kid didn't eat.
So it wasn't my favorite tomato bisque by a long shot (because it was too sweet), but it was still enjoyable as a special treat. As far as service goes, we loved interacting with the gentleman at the register.
He took his time with each customer, explaining the menu items, their origins, how they are prepared, etc.
He even took the time to answer all our kid's questions about how the desserts were made.
He was a pleasure to speak with and it showed his passion for the business and food.
It might have slowed the line down a bit, but nobody in line seemed to mind at all.
They knew they'd be cared for and they knew the food would be fresh and fantastic.

Ok, I straight up loved this place.
You can really tell they take pride in their food prep, the cleanliness and the overall welcoming feeling you get here.
It is warm and charming with really yummy food!! I had the blue plate special which was a Kentucky ham and swiss.
I don't personally like sweet-cured meats, but had a nice conversation with the gentleman at the register and learned it's not too sweet, and he was right! It was so good!! And the veggie soup was really flavor-packed.
It was a short walk here from the Louisville Slugger Museum and would definitely recommend!

Very cute cafe! Lots of space for sitting with a comfy atmosphere! Food is definitely casual but yummy! And the service is excellent! Despite a long line of hungry people, we were served quickly with hot food
