"I ate at Ken Sues before the name change. I enjoyed that meal and I was excited to try the food at the newly named 636 Main. I brought my Son to Dinner for his 16th birthday. Upon seating, we were greeted LOUDLY by our server. While she had a very direct disposition, she was a nice person who I am sure meant no harm. But she yelled when she spoke and it was jarring. She brought us some (partially stale) bread and we looked over the dirty menus. I opted for the blackened ribeye. My Wife chose the Chicken Piccata and my Son chose the New York Strip (I think). I should mention that, as stated on the menu very prominently, there are NO SUBSTITUTIONS under any condition. This displeased me as I am not a fan of asparagus and I typically like to replace it with a broccoli if available. I guess I 'm out of luck. After an attempt to convince the server that there is indeed a good way to order a rare/medium rare steak, I opted for medium rare. I usually ask for Rare, but not too rare, chef 's choice as I know the chef knows their cuts better than I do. I was not allowed to get that far because our server insisted that I choose one or the other. I paired it with a glass of Sonoma Cab Sauv and waited for my meal. The food was good. It was not the best cut or the best preparation I have ever had (there was a bit of gristle and it was difficult to cut), but the taste was good. My Wife and Son enjoyed their meals as well. Overall, I was disappointed with my experience. That being said, it is far from the worst option in town and I would say that, if other options are not available (Eolus, for example), 636 Main is a good alternative. It seems likely that your experience will be better than mine."
