Main Street Kitchen & Tap — Restaurant in Lake Elsinore

Went to have a family dinner tonight. Outside as to socially distance. We have a large family and we’re denied the right to put two outside tables together that were on the public sidewalk, not even a part of the property due to “covid” regulations. Wrong! There was no canopy, no fencing off of property, no signs outside etc. My family lives on a large lot with two homes we all have been together since before covid and during. There’s no need to socially distance from each other. Also, sidewalks are public property, not private. These restaurants put a couple tables outside and think the sidewalk is theirs. Inside the restaurant there were multiple parties sitting together at tables that did not live together. Also they were allowed to move chairs to tables inside the restaurant to suit larger parties, but outside they refused us the right to move a single table and add a couple chairs to accommodate our family. Again, it’s public property on a sidewalk. Also, you damn well can move a table to accommodate a party that is together within covid regulations. Open air, outside, on a public sidewalk. We will not be going to Main Street Kitchen and Tap ever again. We have brought ridiculous amounts of business to them since they have opened. We decided on next door, Stadium Pizza where outside, we could sit wherever we want and move...

So, this was the place chosen by a co worker to exchange gifts. I order two fish tacos with a glass of Merlot. The wine was priced at $7.25 and the tacos was $12.25. The wine was served in an unclean glass. I sent it back and received a cleaner glass. The tacos was a hidden piece of fish, hidden in a what is suppose to be fried in beer batter. It was topped with some kind of salad that was unappealing. And then, it was all placed on a soggy corn tortilla. After taking it all apart, I ate the something called beer batter fish and the tortilla chips and salsa that came with the order. Now, here is the worst part of it all. The check came and I was over charged $2.00 for the wine. When brought to the waitress attention, she told me that she could not change the price in the register. Then with an attitude she said that she would give me the two dollars from her pocket. Which she did not. Maybe because I was not leaving a tip for the distasteful food, a dirty wine glass and bad service. To top it all off, she added two items on a co worker's check that she did not order. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. Definitely, will not...

This place is nice for Lake Elsinore, but I don't think it would be as hyped if it were located elsewhere. I will admit that it does have a cool vibe going on, and that is a welcome change/addition to the typical Elsinore holl-in-the-walls. When I came here I was in the mood for something on the lighter side so I ordered the southwest chicken salad. I thought the salad was pretty marginal, and was not very impressed. I will note that most of the food I saw at other people's tables looked really good, so I can't speak for all of their offerings but am willing to come back and try something else. The service we got was very bleh. Our server wasn't the most friendly person. She rarely came by our table, and barely made eye contact or even cracked a smile. However, the service I noticed at other tables seemed much more enthusiastic and involved, so this may have been an isolated incident. Overall I had a very average experience, but I would still come back to try something else from the menu. I do really like the atmosphere here and think it's a step in the right direction for the city and the overall revitalization of...
