Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Main Street

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Story Cafe, and I must say, it was an absolute gem! As someone who grew up locally but now only visits once a year, discovering this restaurant was a delightful surprise. I first came here for brunch with a friend and was so impressed that I immediately decided to bring my family back for dinner. When we arrived, we encountered an unexpected situation where another group had taken our reservation, claiming to be us. Despite the mix-up, the staff handled the situation with utmost grace and professionalism, quickly resolving it and ensuring we were well taken care of. The food was outstanding—every dish was flavorful and beautifully prepared. My friends and family all thoroughly enjoyed their meals, and the experience was nothing short of memorable. I truly hope that the exceptional quality of food and service remains consistent, as I can’t wait to return on my next visit home. Highly recommended!

Best Lunch in town! Convenient downtown location located in the Georgia hotel. Beautifully appointed dining room comfortable seating, swanky decor, great place to people watch. The food is over the top, I had the foie gras appetizer, followed by the seafood tower. It was epic! The in-house Somalia Antoine is happy to guide you through the wine list. The service is friendly, knowledgeable, professional, They definitely make you feel welcome and important comma even if you're not. I will definitely go back, so many items on the menu to work through. Thank you Hawksworth!

Pleasantly surprised, food descriptions were simple, kale salad exception the croutons amazing! Chicken delicious met balls exception with a kick and severed with cheese toast with basil.

Excellent meal at Joey’s Bentall! Tried the cod for the first time, what a delicious dinner. I will be back just for the cod! The kids shared a cheeseburger and hubby had the katsu chicken salad, always delicious. The restaurant was busy, pre hockey game crowd. Our waiter Thomas G, was a star! He added to an already great meal, he was attentive in all the right ways, with a smile and a sense of humour.

The beef dip, to quote those who had it at my table, was the best they ever had! Services was good but a wee bit slow. Overall an excellent choice!
