Review Summary

Overall, Main Kitchen is described as delivering outstanding, creative food and a lively open kitchen vibe that many diners enjoy, with BYOB and tapas style plates that are frequently praised for freshness and flavor, and some guests say the value makes it worth the price. However experiences vary: some praise attentive service and friendly staff, while others report miscommunications, timing gaps between courses, and feeling rushed or overlooked on busy nights. Comfort and ambiance are mixed, with several mentions of a cold dining room, loud music, and a lively atmosphere that can overwhelm conversation. A few critics note a prepay or suggested gratuity issue and some interactions with management that left a negative impression. Taken together the reviews point to a strong kitchen and menu that entice return visits, tempered by occasional service lapses and comfort concerns.

I was excited to eat here after looking at the menu & reviews. Upon entering the restaurant I felt disappointed. We waited in front with no one to greet us. My friend had to wave someone over to be seated as we had reservations. The staff was off. Not friendly or accommodating. The restaurant is very open to you bringing your own wine. We did. The manager opened our wine & put it on the table. Didn't pour it. She was so rude.
The food was uneven to say it best. We ordered the specials: Paella & short ribs. The ribs were good, but the $42 Paella was awful. The ingredients were top notch but soaked in salty clam juice. The sausage, octopus, & mussels all tasted like salty clam juice-as well as the rice.
Overall I give the service a 2 ambiance a 4 & the attitude & food a zero. Overpriced & underwhelming.

Good food but tiny. It's a nice place to have a chat with friends. You can bring your wine or beer but don't go if you're hungry

EAT HERE! This restaurant checks all the boxes. Excellent food - Attention to detail, reasonably priced, nice presentation, weekly board menu offering seasonal alternatives to their regular menu. BYOB - We love being able to bring our own wine selection Friendly staff Great atmosphere with a lively downtown vibe. Great cocktail bar next door for pre or post cocktails! A must try!

Had a great time at The Main for a girls night. We got to bring our own wine & share each tapas family style. The server Bryanna helped us pick & choose each dish that would accommodate our group. The Main also does catering & did a fantastic job at our wedding in 2018!

Really great bring your own wine in the middle of Hudson. Seasonal menus & amazing specials keep us going back to try more ❤️. Also you can't beat having the best cocktail bar next door to kick off or end your night off 🍸.

Simply my favourite restaurant - great food - small portions that allows you to have many dishes. Menu changes regularly enough for variety. Bring your own wine which is also a big +. Recommended many times & all are quite pleased with this gem! If you are a foodie - this place is a must!

Came here with my husband on a date night last week & sat at the bar. Amazing food...& especially amazing truffle fries!!!! We didn't realize it was byob but we were able to get a bottle of wine from the lounge next door (which was a bit pricey!) We will definitely be back & bring our own wine next time:)
