We’ve eaten at the Grill for several years and we believe the food gets better and better. The staff is so friendly. Whether we come to watch a game in the bar or enjoy the outside patio, we are never disappointed. This place is a local gem.

When making a reservation make sure you designate you seating preference indoors /standard or outdoors. Suggest you call the restaurant to confirm your seating . The hostess will not honor your preference, seating you wherever is convenient.

We dine here with some regularity. Always a nice place to take guests. Must have the truffle tots. This occasion was for dinner. We arrived early for our reservation. The hostess was able to seat us early and granted my request for table location. Our server was friendly and attentive. I’ve found good service to be consistent at Grill on Main and this occasion was no different. It’s a solid choice! Oh, and the salads are delicious. Husband had the short rib bolognese and it was delightfully rich and delicious as well.

My French dip sandwich was over cooked and dry. Had a funny taste to it. I was surprised because normally the food is outstanding.

Great salads! Added blackened salmon 5 stars. Added chicken 4 stars. Normally, it's grilled, seasoned, and placed sliced on top. This time it was chopped and tossed into the salad, good, but not excellent as usual. A great location in downtown LA Quinta with excellent outside seating. Our waiter got everything perfect and was very attentive. We will enjoy it again.
