    The food was wonderful, the service attentive and unobtrusive and the restaurant is beautiful. They immediately accomodated our request for lower music and a warmer temperature. Probably the finest gnocci and jelly donut dessert I have ever had. We will be back!

    I have left reviews for this restaurant before. Nothing has changed. I have never had a bad meal and I have never been disappointed with the service. Plenty of menu choices available for whatever your preferences. A great place to dine.

    Food was excellent! Loved the Asian calamari and the pork chop is my favorite. Service was excellent! Anna was on her game by giving us excellent service. The crack waffle ended the night on a great note!

    Blend on MainResponded on April 27, 2025
    Thank you so much for your kind words and for noticing the little touches we’ve brought back! We’re thrilled to once again offer our signature complimentary bread with roasted garlic oil — a small gesture to warmly welcome our guests. The return of the Big Chop on the sizzling plate has been a guest favorite, and we’re proud to present it with all the flavor and excitement it deserves. Our team takes great pride in their new classic steakhouse attire, and we’re so glad it made an impression. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back to Blend on Main again soon!
