    Stellar! Excellent service and hospitality from the team. The steak and lobster were devine. The salad, coffee and dessert were all prepared well and served in an attractive manner. Even the music was perfect! The attire is business casual and everyone there abided. My cocktail was picture perfect and each sip was delicious. I recommend this for any evening you feel like a better meal and ambiance. Ask for the high tops if you wish to be near the stage—our evening was a pianist. We were in the main dining room which was accented by huge chandelier and lovely art. We loved it! $10 valet worth it. Tip everyone well, they are worth it. We will be back more often.

    Carson's on Main never disappoints and is our favorite place to dine. Hailey was our server and she had the best personality and we wanted for nothing, We started with their amazing Old Fashioned which are always made perfectly. My wife had the seafood pasta and I the shaved prime rib sandwich which is my go to. Everything on their menu is a hit,
