    LOVE Main & Mill Oyster Bar!!! The food is AMAZING. My husband and I have lived several places over the years and always have to find “our spot” and Main & Mill is it. Hubby gets oysters and gives them high marks (I’m not a fan of oysters, wherever I’ve tried them) The whole menu is must try though. I always get the special of the week, which never disappoints. Bartenders are knowledgeable and can mix a fantastic cocktail. And don’t forget dessert... key lime pie is divine (though we do have to get it to go for later )

    We stopped in here for our first time. The place was packed and we ended up getting a seat at the bar, which was fine with us. All the staff was very friendly and stayed on top of everything. Music was great and so was the food.
