I really enjoyed this bar! The interior decor is stylish and welcoming, with plenty of seating and tables to relax and enjoy your night. I noticed they also have a stage for live performances, which is a nice touch—I’d love to come back when there’s a show. I ordered a Tequila Sunrise, Long Island Iced Tea, and my usual go-to, Liquid Marijuana—all were really good. Each of those drinks was around $14, although I’m not sure if the price ever changes depending on the night or bartender. My partner had what I believe was called Smoke on the Water #3, which tasted great and was somewhere between $8–$11. However, his drink didn’t come with the smoky presentation (he had ordered it twice) we later saw a couple get closer to closing time—maybe it was just too busy earlier for them to do that little extra. One thing I really appreciated: no strict dress code. I was wearing a tank top t-shirt and still felt welcome, unlike the bar next door (possibly a dive bar) that turned me away. It’s refreshing to find a place with great vibes, strong drinks, and an inclusive atmosphere. They also serve food, though I didn’t get to try any this time. I forgot to snap a picture of the menu—sorry! But I’ll definitely be back again. This place has good energy, solid drinks, and a chill environment worth returning to.

Atmosphere was nice, cool decor, and live music, right on Main St. It fits the look of a higher end craft cocktail bar, but the food is poor quality and some drinks are overpriced. The "empress" gin cocktail was tasty but at almost $20, it was not worth it. We ordered some queso dip, a plate of broken and stale chips with a spoonfull of watery queso. If we go back, I'll pass on the food and craft cocktails.

It was our 1st time in, and it was awesome. The vibe was laid back. The bartending service was great. We had 4 drinks and queso with chips. The drinks presentation was cool. We had a whiskey sour, honey I shrank the mango, smoke on the water no.8, and a side car. The seating at the bar was comfortable.

Nice and quiet at 5:00 on a Tuesday, but karaoke was planned for later in the evening. Craft cocktails were delightful, pimento cheese was over the top, and our server was extremely helpful in making decisions for food and drinks. We'll be back!!

This time of year,, it is called Miracle on Main! What a great place to visit this time of year! They decorate for the holidays and serve up holiday-fare libations. Opening at 5pm, a line forms before the opening hour and quickly the place is filled shortly after opening. Your complete party must be present for you to be seated, which is quite fair because of the popularity. The drinks menu is pricey, but for a great experience...you just gotta give a few of the holiday-inspired concoctions a try. Our waitress made great recommendations and she was spot on in her suggestions. A must-do at least once each year. It will definitely put you in the holiday spirit and visiting family and friends will love it!

The atmosphere is great, the live music was exceptional and cocktails were delicious! Down sides are no dance floor to speak of!

Visiting from the Raleigh area and stopped in for a pre-dinner drink. Haven’t had craft cocktails this good for years. Interesting menu, great service from Kristin and Samantha, and great atmosphere. Will be our new go-to place in the Charlotte area.

A surprise spot in downtown Mooresville. Comfortable chill spot. Can get cheap beer or some great mixed drinks (wife approved). They even offer higher choice liquor. Stop by. You won't be disappointed.

Great place! Live music, great service and the specialty drinks are per fantastic! The food was good for bar food but if you are hungry, eat first before heading to 158 On Main. Highly recommend

might be too late to meaningfully review this place since they are officially closed in their most recent incarnation but sometimes that happens. turns out that it wouldn't have mattered much anyway since I've only been a couple three times and I'd learned they were closing on the second a week ago... sorry. this was actually a very nice place place that seemed a bit pretentious at first (it was more the customers than the business) but was certainly a better establishment than this town rates. didn't sample the kitchen menu but the cocktails were top notch from the inspired drink menu to the old guy drinks of legend. even though it was situated in the currently sprawling jackassery of 21st century lake norman this place just felt right. on the plus side, the note in the window suggests this is a temporary setback so keep an eye on this spot and their social media...

Great vibes in this place. And a cool arcade right beside it, service was fast and friendly place was super clean and there was live music that wasn't to loud to talk to the people at my table. Great Ambiance and friendly welcoming vibe.

Nice, moody lounge-meets-cocktail bar on a charming, spiffed up section of Mooresville's Main Street. Dark, cozy lighting, long L-shaped bar, interesting house cocktail list and what looks to be an elevated snacks menu. As in, you won't find wings, fries or chicken strips..though there are pork nachos. Our wine and beer was fine, but our nachos - not so much. Lots of cream, little cheese, piles of nachos and super salty. Bartender was nice and attentive and there was live music on the Thursday night we went, so it's a pleasant place to spend an hour or two. Pay no attention to the "dive bar" sign outside - maybe it's ironic, or just left over from the last place, but this is in no way a gritty, back-alley joint. Good vibes and drinks, not much of a food menu but open late on a street where everything else is closed by 9pm. A very solid, if not really exceptional bar.

Get ready, I got the double review comin at ya. I've been here on a night where they had a drag show and everything was amazing!! It was a great time and the service was pretty good considering there were drag queens dancing around everywhere. The drinks are good and the dessert was yummy. For the Christmas season, this place turns into Miracle on Main. It's completely decked out with ornaments hanging everywhere and all the walls wrapped in wrapping paper! I loved all the themed drinks and cups! The only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars is the size. I wish they were able yo expand, because they could definitely use it. It's always super packed in there and that can get overwhelming pretty fast. Overall though, this is a great place to hang out and go to for their special events! Make sure you have a reservation though.

Food, service, and ambiance are all over the top. Two of us had the crab cakes. Really big and more crab than I have ever seen in a crab cake. The other one of us had the prime rib and declared it to be the best prime rib he has ever eaten. Two of us shared the grilled artichoke. It is a very innovative way to prepare and serve it. They loved it. The other thing that should be noticed is the skillet cornbread. It is very flavorful and moist. If you are looking for an elegant style restaurant experience with fantastic food this is the place.

Get the pimento cheese. Thank me later. You're welcome. Drinks are also great. Creative. But the cheese. Get the pimento cheese.

Let me tell you about this place as my first experience here. I've heard from word of mouth this place is good. If you haven't been it's definitely worth your time. The ambiance from walking in to sitting down. The service, drinks and food amazing! The hostess and server were friendly and attentive. Plus they had a live band. We're definitely coming back and recommend.

A friend and I recently visited 158 on main. We both live in Charlotte and figured it would be nice to get out of the city for the night. It was a haul to get out to the spot but completely worth it. Everyone was very nice and respectful. We got some drinks at the bar and I can confirm I have a new standard for my old fashioneds. Our bartender was Katie and I have to say I was very impressed. Despite the fact that it was wall to wall customers she was timely with her service and just over all was great every step of the way. We also got food that was amazing but it was so good I may have forgotten to take pictures so we will save that for next time.

Drinks are well crafted and the food is good. We enjoyed the live music. Great place for date night.

The hidden gem bar of my dreams, but make it local. Seasonal craft cocktails, but not pretentious. Creative menu, but not so weird you can't get a house made pimento and bacon smash burger with your draft IPA. I love this place. Live music and events - follow them on social media for the calendar. In downtown Mooresville, this is a prime date night spot! Don't sleep on it. Bartenders are chill and service is amazing. Pro tip: ask for the Spirits menu and treat yo'self.

Been here a couple of times and won't be back. Overpriced drinks, rude staff, I don't care that there is a two hour wait for a table, I am just here for a drink. Busy bar this time of year with the Christmas theme so crowded and busy. It's had been quite a while since the last time I was in here when I ordered food. The reheated from frozen meatballs were still as frozen in the middle as Santa's balls so we sent them back. The elves did a great job of nuking them and sending them back out.

A bit pricey but an enjoyable experience. Came in for drinks and got a few appetizers/salad to share. Really enjoyed the meatballs and drinks. Did not know it was a members only establishment. Live music with tickets was that evening so we could only stay for a little while. Band was warming up when we were eating. I'll return if in Mooresville.

Kool venue! Albeit the background music was ear crushing loud, but I get that's the vib they're after. Cocktails are second to none, whiskey selection is an A (it's not your beer pub fellas- which is kool when momma wants a classy twist) We were not there for live music but looks intimate for that. Did i mention the background music was loud? Service was great, prompt and pleasant. Now hear me clearly, their smash burger with blue cheese/bacon is the bomb of all smash burgers! Trust me, you want that PERIOD. Now I'm a boots and jeans boy that takes a bath when momma wants me too, and I can dress up easily for a fancy evening...but this place took me as is, and we had a great time. My only regret is that we did not unleash the bar tender and let her impress us with her creations! However, mt wife enjoyed her martini. I going back, soon. Hope to see you there!

I love this cocktail bar! My husband and I enjoyed coming here for a date night - the cocktails were excellent and we really enjoyed listening to the live music! I would highly recommend the two cocktails we had which were the Spring Fling and Bramble On!

I got to experience this amazing place during one of their Chef Pop Up Series. Our chef was Tim Groody with the Good Kitchen and formerly of Fork! in Cornelius. Our experience was phenomenal. Every course was paired with a different wine that complimented it perfectly. The wait staff was friendly and everyone was so knowledgeable and worked together well. The food for our event was out of this world delicious. The first course was an amuse-bouche that was made out of leftover bits from the meal we were about to be served, as nothing goes to waste in the kitchen. These "leftovers" were certainly more delicious than the leftovers that come out of my own kitchen! What followed was a trip through Tim Groody's voluptuous imagination using small plates as a vehicle. The surprise dishes of the night for me were the rabbit and the compressed spiced melon. I didn't think I liked rabbit or cantaloupe, but they were my favorite dishes of the night. Anyone that can not only make those not only edible but outright delicious for me is a magician. This was one of the best nights I've had in a long time and I can't wait to get back!

So beyond impressed with this gem in mooresville! The drinks were fun and delicious (and an experience at that), and the small plates we had (kale and burrata salads) were phenomenal. Slightly pricy but worth it!! Will be back!

We used to love this place. Then I guess it changed hands.of course the first thing they did was change the menu. They took our favorite thing off so we stopped coming in. Tried to get in over Christmas but of course that couldn't happen and we were happy for the new owners. Went in last night... seriously 5 people at the bar when we took a seat. It took a few minutes to even be acknowledged as the bartender was chatting it up with the 3 guys. Then we got our drink and ordered our food. The meatballs we good but not enough sauce in my opinion. Then we waited another 10 minutes for the bartender to check on our drinks. The people sitting next to us had been empty since before our food arrived. She finally came over and we ordered the chicken lettuce wraps. The sauce served with these was so salty you can't eat it & I like salt! With only 9 people at the bar and a band, it was pretty loud but the service literally was terrible. The bartender was more enthralled in the conversation with the 3 guys than she was in servicing her bar. Unfortunately it used to be a great place but the service and quality of food has taken a few steps down.

Awesome date night venue or any any night out for that matter! The band for the night rocked the house to 90s and 2000s well known hits. The tapas style munchies, although limited, were pretty and amazing! But...the cocktails! That's why this place is famous, at least in my mind, for! The mixologist behind the bar had the recipes down to a science and put on a show concocting the perfect drinks! Definitely recommend this place and will be back!

If there was ZERO I would chose it!! Total jerk of an establishment. The owner is a douche bag. Bought tickets for a drag show that was posted on his website for $20. Two days later he calls and says he made a mistake and we need to pay the difference.... Instead of owning up to HIS mistake like any Good business would do he asks for us to pay the difference. I don't think so!!! don't waste your time here it's not worth it!! You my dear sir just lost A LOT of business bc you can beat your ass I will tell EVERYONE!!

What a great place. Went for mt birtday dinner. We had so much fun at 'Miracle at Main' great atmosphere, good food, fun drinks. Music, pictures, smiles everywhere. I did have a 'snafu'. Signed the wrong check, didn't bother to look was having so much fun. Went back the next day to straighten things out. I no sooner waljed in the door and our server 'Loren' came to me and started too apologize, she grabbed her manager 'Rob', whom she had told about the mistake the night before. He immediately processed a refund, and tossed in a discount. This turned out to be a good experience. Will definitely go back soon, and highly recommend. 6 STARS !!!
