Decent spot for a laid-back bistro experience. There aren’t many non-chain restaurants in Legacy Place, but Liberty & Main is one of them. I recently took a visit for a weekday lunch, and the restaurant wasn't too busy. Despite being billed as a “bistro,” there weren't many French-influenced dishes on the menu. Instead, it resembled the typical offerings you would find at elevated taverns. Perhaps I chose the wrong appetizers, but both the shrimp and the chicken liver mousse were just okay. The mousse pâté had a prominent alcoholic aftertaste, likely from wine, and the sweetness was overplayed. Its texture was too light and foam-like, so it almost felt like eating chicken liver mousse-flavored cream. The fried shrimp was slightly better, but it was indistinguishable from typical sweet chili fried shrimp. For the entrée, I opted for the Irish Chicken Curry, a sweeter and less spicy version of Indian curry bowls. This was my first time trying Irish-style curry, and I found the flavors to be too mundane for my taste. Service was great, but given their mediocre food, I’m not sure if I would come back. That said, it might be worth a visit if you're seeking a relaxed, non-chain dining option in the area.

Fantastic Thanksgiving menu, perfect for a daily outing. Choice of appetizers including a holiday salad with apples, cranberries and goat cheese; bacon & peanutbutter (sounds odd, tastes great), spicy shrimp or butternut squash soup. We chose traditional turkey and salmon for our entrees which were served with mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts and carrots. Dessert was your choice of carrot cake, chocolate cake or pecan pie. Atmosphere was great, music track excellent but not too loud, service on point and food phenomenal. All for $55 per person. New holiday tradition!

Nice semi upscale place with outdoor seating and a bar. Nice bathroom with lotion (rare). The drink menu had a bunch if tasty options, drinks weren't too strong but yummy. I had the salted caramel and my girl had the espresso martini. The food was better than I expected. The blue cheese dressing in the hit chicken sandwich was delicious. The sandwich wasn't really spicy tho. The waitress was nice and personable. Would go back

Their "chicken" soup was italian seasoned water, yuck! Their homemade meatballs were the frozen tasteless kind! Their steak sandwich had no taste or flavor. Thank God for the cucumber salad, not bad considering the $80.00 meal! Don't waste your time or money on this place!

My husband and I just had a fabulous meal at Liberty & MAIN. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the tone for a wonderful evening. The food was outstanding. It’s clear that the chefs take great pride in their craft. We tried a variety of items from the menu, and every single one was fantastic! The service was equally impressive. Our server/bartender/manager was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. It felt like we were being treated like VIPs! Overall, Liberty & MAIN is a gem that we will definitely be returning to. If you’re looking for a place with delicious food, excellent service, and a fantastic atmosphere, look no further. Highly recommend! Cheers to many more meals at Liberty & MAIN!

I had an incredibly frustrating experience at this restaurant today. While the food was decent, the service was unacceptable. I went in for brunch and ordered eggs, toast, and potatoes—the meal also included sausage, which I don’t eat. I asked the waitress if I could substitute something else, and she mentioned fruit or a “kid pancake,” even demonstrating a small size with her fingers. That sounded reasonable, so I agreed. When my food arrived, instead of a small pancake, I was given an entire plate with three huge pancakes. I immediately told the server this was too much food, but she just walked away. Then, when the check came, I was shocked to see an additional $12 charge for the pancakes. I had assumed she was offering a simple substitution, not charging me $4 per pancake. For dietary and health reasons, I couldn’t even eat them all. At this point, I expected some form of customer service—at least an apology or a willingness to adjust the charge. Instead, the waitress insisted she had explained everything (she hadn’t at all), and when I asked for a manager, she conveniently claimed there wasn’t one available. That was a lie too. Eventually, a manager did come over, but rather than listening or de-escalating, she was rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. She “comped” two pancakes but never acknowledged the miscommunication. Instead, she doubled down, saying, “I believe my server.” Believe what, exactly? That she didn't mess up - even if she had why not just say sorry. If she had thought she had explained things well - why not just say so sorry for the miscommunication....? It happens. Not a big deal. But the attitude was over the top of all the people who work at this place. A manager’s role is to de-escalate issues, not make customers feel gaslit. A good restaurant prioritizes customer experience and accountability. Even if they weren’t willing to comp the pancakes entirely, a simple acknowledgment—“I see where the confusion happened”—would have gone a long way. Instead, their lack of professionalism made it clear they don’t care whether customers return. Also the prices are ridiculous - 35 bucks for a simple brunch is too much for one person - this is not the four seasons. Servers are rude, average food and just a terrible experience. Given the repeated complaints about this place, I’d recommend skipping it and going to Legal C Kitchen or somewhere else that values both food and service.

Great atmosphere. Wonderful people. If you want a restaurant where they make you feel like your a part of their family that has great food and drinks, this is your place! It sounds strange, but you have to try the grilled bacon with peanut butter sauce. The twisted fish tacos (Blackened Cod)were amazing! And, the baked Alaska was a great way to finish off the meal! If you can’t get a table, try the bar where you can still get all the great food with a couple of large screen tv’s to enjoy the nights sports . Julie & Mike are wonderful hosts making sure everything goes just right. Every restaurant should care about their customers the way this couple does! I know we’ll be back next week! We went back the other night to try their new "Summer" Menu and once again we were not disappointed. We started with the beet salad with ricotta, which was delicious, then I had the shaved prime rib sandwich which was great and my wife had the puff pastry chicken pot pie which was delicious!

We got the spicy fried shrimp appetizer, the Mac and cheese side dish, and the gnocchi with green Alfredo sauce. The food really was horrible. The shrimp were severely overcooked and rubbery and did not taste fresh at all. The Mac and cheese was cavatappi noodles with a bland cheese sauce ladled on top. They were served on a flat plate which is such a bad idea. Some of the worst Mac and cheese I’ve ever had. The gnocchi themselves were good but the sauce they were in was too punchy and they were drowning in sauce, you had to fish them out. The white wine by the glass selection was mainly Californian whites. The French whites are $20+ a glass and are of low quality.

We had a good birthday dinner experience on a snowy winter Saturday night. Nice place for a special dinner occasion. $12 drafts were a bit aggressive in price. Our server was excellent. Steak Frits were cooked to order with a nice char.

We walked right in on a Wednesday afternoon for lunch, found seats at the bar with no problem. We both ordered the Nashville hot sandwich, which was pretty good, as was the service and atmosphere. Good, not great. Glad we tried something new, having tried lots of other restaurants in Legacy Place before, but probably wouldn't go back.

My partner and I had been meaning to try this spot for so long. We got the signature espresso martini (classic), B&B burger w French fries, B&B burger w truffle fries, and a side of chorizo mac & cheese - TASTE: 5/5 - was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. From the classic espresso martini and the blue cheese fondue in the burgers, to the truffle salt on the fries and the strong cheese sauce paired w tasty chorizo in the mac & cheese TEXTURE: 4/5 - enjoyed the foamy topping in the martini, burger's tender beef patty, crisp fries, and cavatappi pasta PRICE: 4/5 - total came to $90 for dinner SERVING SIZE: 4/5 - left full and satisfied SERVICE: 4/5 - made an OpenTable reservation prior to arriving at 5pm on a Sunday. A handful of other parties were eating, so it wasn't very busy. Our food started coming out 15-20min after ordering ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - twas a beautiful day out, and the covered patio provided just the right balance of shade and fresh air. The interior and bathrooms were nicely decorated PARKING: 5/5 - plenty of parking in the Legacy Place lot and garage

Beautiful room, not very busy, so we were seated right away even tho we were early. Our server, Sarah, was excellent!! We were gabbing & not moving too quickly w decisions, but Sarah left us alone till we needed her. Food was delicious!! I had Pork Bao Buns that were really yummy... Bao dough was awesome! Friend had fish tacos & loved em. We had Affogato for dessert & it was ok. Nothing special. Drinks were delish!!! Overall a wonderful lunch!!

Plenty of parking at legacy place but can get busy. Restaurant has a nice modern elegant vibe with bar. Our waitress Ava was awesome. She's so bubbly, positive and efficient. We had the Irish curry chicken bowl $22 and chicken and rice bowl $26 for lunch. Both tasted delicious and looked filling. I will say price point is a little high for lunch for portions. But overall great atmosphere and well staff.

Have to echo the sentiments on food vs. service. Food was tasty. Service was rushed at the end. We were accused of being "2.5 hours late." One member of our party was 1 hour early having mixed up the times and was willing to sit at the bar. She was seated instead - not her call or push. It wasn't busy. A majority of the rest were on time. Two were 10 minutes late. But this was not 2.5 hours. We were also refused a bread refill and a mashed potatoes refill on a prix fixe menu. We were willing to pay for each and were eventually given potatoes for a charge. I can definitely understand the tables are limited. Please set a timing limit/turnover expectation when booking. We also would have been more receptive just to being asked if we were finished. The "2.5 hours late" struck a nerve with all because it just wasn't true.

Very disappointed. "Hand cut fries" are nothing but frozen processed fries with an exceptionally high price tag. They arrived cold to top it off. Shrimp appetizer was at best below average. I will not go back. Server was fabulous but why put your staff in a situation where they are delivering food that clearly came out the deep freeze....

A friend and I stopped by for dinner and drinks after shopping around legacy place. The restaurant was pretty empty for a Sunday night which was surprising. The restaurant was nicely decorated with fall decor. We both ordered the sorrento spritz to start with a side of truffle fries. The drink was way too sweet. We thought it needed more club soda or something to cut the sweetness. The truffle fries lacked truffle and arrived cold. For dinner, we ordered the fish tacos and burger. I had the burger and it came with a side of fries. I wasn't surprised that the fries arrived cold since the truffle fries we had were also cold. The burger was okay...the patty was really thin and didn't have much flavor to it. My friend was unimpressed by the fish tacos and said it was just about the same as ordering from a chain restaurant.

My boyfriend and I have come here twice on a Saturday night to grab a bite to eat before seeing a movie at the theater next door. Liberty & Main comes across as a restaurant that is trying to be an upscale bistro, but the quality of the food, the atmosphere and the service does not warrant the price tag. If the prices were lower, I would give it more stars, but I'm giving it three stars because it's trying to be something it isn't. Also, make sure you get a reservation or else you have no hope of getting a table. AMBIANCE: 3 stars: The place is nicely decorated with a fall theme, but was jam packed and very loud. Even the music was several decibels too high. A couple at the table next to ours appeared to be on a first date and they couldn't hear each other. The tables were too close together and we felt like we had very little privacy. FOOD: 3 stars: We both ordered the Grilled Chicken Club and were disappointed by the size of the sandwich. By definition, a "club" is supposed to be a large sandwich and this was a regular size sandwich for $19, with very little chicken and mostly bread, lettuce and tomato. We also ordered the Smoked Watermelon Carpaccio as an appetizer, which while unique and tasty was definitely not worth $15. SERVICE: 3.5/4 stars: Service was good, but slow, which I assume was because the restaurant was so busy. I don't blame our server for that, but we did wait about an hour to get our entrees and we were trying to wrap up our meal in time to see a movie. Overall, this is a decent restaurant, but expect to wait a long time to get your food and don't plan to be able to hear anyone at your table. The food is pretty average- not bad, but nothing to write home about either. If you want a sandwich, you can get a larger and much less expensive one at Potbelly.

Happened to be around the area decided to go in and check it out without checking the reviews while I was deciding what to pick I check the yelp reviews and was surprised that it was only a three stars. it looks super busy in here and overall a good atmosphere I ended up ordering the steak frites ane we also got the burger both Plates were delicious. Steak could use a little bit more flavor, truffle fries were good, burger was decent as well. overall it was pretty good. Price is a bit on the high side for what it is and the portion though. But you are paying for the convenience and Location. Legacy in general is pretty packed during the weekends. service was excellent as well

Since when does an entre not get served with at least a single roll ? We asked .... and "bread" is available as an appetizer ? Nope - no thanks. The Bolenase was wonderful - but a roll would have been appreciated.

Birthday Dinner and I was Very Disappointed. Our waitress had an attitude from the start. She Never filled our waters, even once. She was aloof and always "busy." Food was average. Someone brought out a Birthday Cake with no candle, even though it was listed on the reservation. That person also was like, Oh, do you want a candle? The rudest staff I've met in 10 years. If you're up for a Fun Night! Definitely Avoid this place!

Fantastic food and friendly service! This bistro offers stunning dishes with complex flavors and fresh ingredients, cooked to your preference. The drink selections are equally impressive, catering to all tastes. The staff is welcoming, and the bar features comfortable seating indoors and outdoors. It's also pleasantly quiet, making conversation easy. I'll definitely return often!

I went with my husband for brunch I had the crab cake Benedict. The crab cake was all crab not other restaurants that only give mostly cornmeal and bit of crab if you like crab cakes you need to go to L&M my husband had shituka he said it was delicious! This place is a hidden gem for brunch!

I had the burger which was excellent, and cooked exactly the way I wanted. My dining companion had the steak tips which were very good as well. The food came out promptly, and the staff were extremely nice. The restaurant itself is very cool inside with young, upscale feel. Definitely will be back to try more stuff.

No surprises. Just what you would expect for a restaurant in a suburban mall. Overpriced, mediocre, unimaginative, cuisine in an upscale wannabe. The service and ambience were ok, and it is fairly easy to park.

I met a friend for lunch today. Despite no masks on any employees (including the chef when he was out of the kitchen), I felt very safe, Covid-wise. Our table was away from everyone else and the restaurant is very large. I love the decor (although I think I was under an air vent, because I was freezing). Good-wise, 5 stars. They have Pepsi, not Coke (what's with places around here? Why no Coca-Cola??), unfortunately for me. My friend and I split 3 things: - Grilled bacon & PB, without jalapeños. The bacon was rather fatty for me, but the crispy pieces I got were delicious. It was VERY salty, so be prepared. -My friend had previously had a burrata salad and requested it again. They had some, so the chef made it for us. We asked for 1, and got 2. That's a LOT of burrata, but I ate it all. VERY garlicky - too much for my friend, but I didn't mind. -Sweet potato fries. I'm not usually a fan, as they're usually too soggy for me, but these were great. Crispy, tasty - just the right amount (although I could have eaten more). The menu isn't huge, but there was a lot I wanted to try, so I'm sure I'll be back! Our waitress was nice, but service was rather slow. Luckily, we weren't in a rush.

Don't believe Yelp reviews. They deliberately keep the bad reviews and eradicate the good ones. They also want the business to buy into their advertising package and if you don't , you pay for it with bad reviews. Liberty and Main is an excellent establishment and they have the best head chef Doug who takes great pride in coming out to customers to see how their meal was. Great drinks, food and staff. Always a solid choice.

I just had lunch here and service was extremely slow- the fries were yesterdays fries - the tacos were lacking in flavor. No lime given for tacos. And it is not cheap! $22 for fish taco lunch ? Don't bother.

Atmosphere: Pretty chill. Music varied between NKOTB and Culture Club. Drinks: THEY STUFF YOUR OLIVES! Drink menu is great. Food: Ordered the Shrimp and Grits: soooooo good, I would have ordered the etouffee on the side, but it was good. Stuffed chicken leg with whipped potatoes, baby, carrots, cornbread and chicken, stuffing sausage, apple cider gravy: !! A little pricey, but overall super food food.

My family and I came here for Easter dinner, and it was absolutely fabulous. The variety of the menu was fantastic, especially since we had a number of "fussy" eaters in our company. Everyone raved about the chicken parmesan meatballs and the mussels, and the cocktails were made to perfection. We also felt the service was right on point. It was a busy Sunday, and our party was 14 people, and we were never left looking or waiting for our waitress. My wife and I have added this to one of our "go-to" spots for date night.

Came here tonight with some friends for a double date. They got here before us and put their name in with host stand. The host was so unorganized and didnt know what she was doing and it showed. I use to host and after waiting 20 mins she gave away the table she had for us. Mind you I'm currently 6 months pregnant! We sat at the bar decided maybe be faster just get dinner there. We were so wrong the bar just tried to push drinks. And after another 45 mins maybe longer my friend got his salad about an hour we got our food literally after half the restaurant cleared out. I got a burger and fries and it was very bland. The bartender told us she had to wait for my friend to be done with his salad before we got our entrees. To me from previously working at restaurant sounds like she forgot to put in our food order. My husband got the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich and wasn't impressed said we should've just gone to Yard house like we originally planned! Place was not somewhere I'd come back or recommend.

We visited here on 3/16/24. We overall had a great experience. The martini selection was quite good. We had the truffle fries and the curry fries for appetizers I had the purple rain. Both my kids had the Togarashi Tuna. I had the steak tips and my wife had the panzanella salad. The Baked Alaska dessert and the mousse were both delicious. One of our diners was gluten free, and most of the menu was available to him. The service was excellent and attentive (thank you Matt). It doesn't get the fifth star for two main reasons. First, the steak tips were more like steak cubes. Any of you who are steak tip regulars know that they are usually very soft and chewy. While good, not what I was expecting. Second, I felt the pricing was a little off. a. The steak tips were $34.00, about $5-10 more than I would have expected for this type of restaurant and in hindsight based on the quality. There was also no vegetable, which I knew about, but it didn't look right on the plate without a little green. b. The curry fries at $13.00 were disappointing. The curry sauce was delicious, but it was literally a handful of fries to dip. If there were more than 15 fries, I would be shocked. Note that across the street, quality fries at Tavern in the Square are $7.00. For that amount of fries, $9.00 would have been palatable. Note though that we will go back, but we'll probably stick to lower priced items on the menu and forego the fries, despite their delicousness.

We were excited to try this restaurant as the menu was interesting. They have 4 types of expresso martinis. The $16 drink was in a small glass and had no flavor. It tasted like a lot of ice melted and diluted the drink. The entrees had beautiful plating but the dishes had absolutely no taste. The lemongrass cod looked beautiful topped with pomegranate seeds and a nice bed of cauliflower rice--no taste. I had the chicken rice bowl. I like my food bland--but no taste. And the entrees were not inexpensive. Perhaps the sandwiches maybe ok, but we wont be back to try. The waitress and atmosphere were fine.

Nothing but good things to say about Liberty & Main, which is especially nice since we had dinner at 8pm on a Tuesday and they easily could have just cashed it on. They had plenty of outdoor seating which would have been nice on a cooler day, but we opted to dine indoors. The interior has a cool, new American lounge vibe - very chic and dimly lit (in a good, not creepy way). We shared the burrata app to start, and it was phenomenal. The tomato jam and balsamic glaze added just the right amount of sweetness. My only feedback would be that the flavor of the toast points (like a lemon pesto almost) was a bit overpowering, but all in all, the app was delicious. I had the sweet chili chicken sandwich, which was also amazing. The sweet chili sauce had just a tinge of spice and coated the chicken nicely. Sometimes, you get chicken sandwiches that say they have a sauce or flavor and it's too light to even notice - this was NOT that, thankfully. We also shared a side of the crème corn brûlée, and holy cow was that good. It tasted like melted caramel corn, if that's even possible. We also a shared a cheesecake, which was good but not great. Our drinks were perfect - I ordered the Mother Brook martini and it was a lovely peach cocktail. Husband ordered the Bourbon in Dedham and he loved it as well. The service was fantastic - great recommendations and everything was very timely. The owner (I think?) even dropped by to check on us. Overall, just a really great experience! We will definitely be back since this shopping area is super close to us. Excited to try some other things on the menu that looked good too!

Best chicken saltimbocca I've ever had. Melts in your mouth and a nice, generous delicious hunk of chicken.

The restaurant itself is really new as noted by a decor piece that stated 2021 as the opening year. The space itself is well structured with a bar off to right upon entering and some high half moon seating directly in front of that and finished off by table seating to the left. While a nice restaurant, I feel that the food itself was okay and not something I'd go out of my way to eat. We tried some B&B Wings, the Steak Bomb, and the Churro French Toast. The wings itself really lacked flavor and the sauces carried it. Stated as paired with a wasabi ranch and gochujang mirin, it really just tastes like plain ranch and I tasted neither the gochujang or mirin. The steak bomb also needed more cheese and the horseradish aioli was nowhere to be found. I forgot that was an element until writing this review and checking their menu. The French toast was quite good though, light on the sweetness and the chocolate cream helped cut through the sweetness it did have. Overall, I spent almost $80 pre tip. The wings and each main was $15+ along with a boozy espresso drink and house beer that ran $15/$6. If I'm dropping almost $100 pot top on brunch, I'd want to be wowed and wanting to come back. Sadly, this doesn't seem to be the case.

Made a reservation for two on a Saturday. Was dead when we arrived, but busy when we left. Pleasant front desk. Seated quickly. Nice decor, good ambiance. Limited booths, but chair/table was comfortable enough. Read the reviews, and went in with mediocre expectations, hoping to be impressed. Didn't love the menu. Spent more time talking about leaving and anguishing over ordering or staying. Started with the bread basket, which was good enough. Not sure it's worth the $5 up charge. Got a burger despite the poor reviews, and it was accurately portrayed. Would not recommend it or get it again. My wife had the house salad with steak tips. Ate 10% of it. Steak is in BBQ sauce, and no option to get without sauce. Has sweet potatoes on it, and my wife convinced they were rancid. Waitress didn't ask how anything was until the end. Offered up a manager visit after we paid. How could we assume that visit or any replacement item would be average or better? One and done. Wish we left.

I'm not sure how I missed this place as I frequent legacy place quite often but it's a newer spot. I decided to order something from here for takeout one day after work and some of the hostesses were friendly. I ordered the cauliflower tacos. Once I got there it took about 5 or 7 mins for my order to be ready. I tried them immediately and to my surprise the tacos were less than warm and the chips a little stale possibly from the steam. Minus the temperature issue, I would rate the tacos a 7.5/10. Inside the establishment was cute, I may try dining in next time.

The one star is for service- otherwise 0. I have eaten here 4 times since they opened, each time worse than the last. I want to like this place so much, but always disappointed. This replaced our go-to for a family dinner out, Aquitaine, and they have kept much of the ambiance, which is good. We also live 5 minutes away so we know there are excellent choices in the area. Always excellent service, from host to server to bartender. Food is generally awful and extremely overpriced. I usually never mention price, as I am willing to pay for a good meal, but this one deserves it. $200 for 3 people, one drank water. 2 or 3 oz of dry and overcooked salmon ($12 add-on and what was that weird flavor it was cooked in?) came on my Caesar salad, which was a bowl of 1/3 wilted, 1/3 brown and 1/3 edible romaine, an enormous amount of croutons and apparently the end of the container of shaved parmesan. A steak frites at the table was $35 (steak frites!) and only 2/3 was edible between the massive amounts of fat and the well-done ends of what was ordered medium. The fried shrimp appetizer was actually good, but not enough to redeem this experience or any of the previous experiences here. I gave it chances, but I'll be dining elsewhere in the future.

The definition of painfully average. Food was under seasoned, drinks were meh, service was whatever. Our main course was brought out and dropped at our table as we were still in the middle of eating our appetizers. Food came out way too quick. There's no way the food was made fresh to order.

Waitress was ok not unfriendly or friendly. She seems tired. Food was ok. Nothing special. But way over priced. Do not get the warm bread bowl for $6. Not worth it. Basically rolls from Shaws heat up. Would I return? NOPE!

Have been here probably 4 or 5 times, each time choosing to forget the last experience, hoping that they were anomalies. Really great looking place inside. Clean, modern, "upscale". Unfortunately neither the food nor price match the atmosphere. This place could be great, given the atmosphere and location, but the price does not match the quality of food or drink. Service has always been fair, so would give that 3.5 stars.

The owner Michael came over! We joked.a true professional. Had mussels, fish tacos, pastrami sandwiches, cod, baked Alaska ( yummy) seaward, 4 martinis, $229. All food very good, service good.

We've eaten there twice for lunch and once for takeout. Upscale American faire. The severs we had were knowledgeable and friendly. They were busy both times we went, but appetizers and burgers came out in a timely manner. Peanut Butter Bacon has a little jalapeño kick, fair warning. But tasty! Will eat there again!

Went to Liberty and Main for the first time yesterday and the food was so good. I had the steak frites with truffle fries, hubby got the veal chip plate both plates were delicious. I also had the expresso martini... it was so damn good! Our child had the child size bacon mac and cheese and practically ate most of her meal which was impressive since she's such a picky eater. We definitely will plan to return to Liberty and Main

I expected $9 fries to be better than fries cooling in a tube which turned a bit greasy. Had the steak tips and found it to need more than just a bunch of sauce splashed 9n the plate over the other ingredients. For the cost, I'm underwhelmed by the food. Drinks were good.

For the money not worth it! We ate here a year ago for lunch and thought it was good. The quality of the food has since gone down. Fries used to be steak fries and perfect now skinny and over cooked. House salad on menu as Gem lettuce just Romain and a few tomatoS --$15 -- add a protein $12 -- that's an expensive salad-- blackened salmon was burnt not blackened with Cajun seasoning -- just burnt. Burger paper thin like a post it note -- can get better burger at shake shack for a 1/4 of the price. Nobody really ate their food -- it was just expensive. If you charge $29 for an entree people will expect a lot more. Stop supporting the chain restaurants and look for the hidden gems there are plenty of good places to eat in the area--this isn't one of them.

We live nearby but this was our first visit. We came an an odd hour (around 2:30pm), so most of the inside tables were empty and outside was at about half capacity. We were seated immediately and service was very good. Our server (who was new) was very friendly and attentive. Now for the food... we had no real expectations since we were shopping at Legacy place and chose Liberty & Main primarily because it was new to us. It seemed pretty casual so we gave it a try. They definitely exceeded our expectations. My wife had a Caesar salad with grilled shrimp which she really enjoyed. She shared a bite with me and the dressing was exceptional. I had a crispy chicken sandwich which was spicy and served with a blue cheese sauce. The two stand-out items, however, were the hand cut fries and the "corn brûlée. The fries were the best I've had in a very long time. They had a super crispy shell and soft interior (the way fries are supposed to be, but rarely are). I'm guessing they must fry them twice with a higher finishing temp(?). I'm not exaggerating... they were great. The corn brûlée is exactly what it sounds like... corn meets Crème brûlée. It could honestly be eaten as a desert but is served as a side. We shared this and both thought it was fantastic. There are other items on the menu we would love to try in the future (fried zucchini flowers!) .Overall, I would describe this restaurant as casual Euro-American gourmet. It should really appeal to any foodie since they have both unique dishes and twists on traditional American. We are going back for dinner one night soon. We may become regulars!

I've given this place a handful of chances and each time disappointed. From dishes I was told don't contain mustard and do, to a continuous of overcooked steaks. It's too bad because the ambiance is great. When my husband asked about his steak (ordered medium rare and was clearly medium well). Server came back told him it was medium rare and that the lighting outside on the patio where we were was bad. Further more - the table next to us sent back their chicken wings because they had feathers on them. Their steak was also well done when asked for medium rare. Sadly more - another table of six walked out because someone had gone to the bathroom and witnessed a kitchen staff member not wash their hands after using the restroom. We will not be going back to this restaurant

The vibe is like an Applebee's with a small menu that is trying to present itself as being higher-end, plus everything is freedom themed. I ordered the Nashville "hot" chicken sandwich, which had literally no heat whatsoever, and very little flavor. The fries were actually pretty good. The baked Alaska dessert was tasty, but way too large. The server was friendly but not very warm or attentive. All in all, the experience felt very generic and bland.

Excellent food and service!! Located in a high end outdoor shopping mall in Dedham MA. Pleasant atmosphere to dine and or kill time. Nice experience and good looking restaurant with great food!

We had a nice time at Liberty and Main during our time in Denham MA. Our waitress was very nice and responsive and the space was very nice. Unfortunately, the food was underwhelming given how pricy the restaurant was. The Nashville hot chicken sandwich was particularly disappointing as it was not spicy, had cucumbers instead of pickles, and had very little bacon jam. The other items were okay but nothing really phenomenal.

The Dedham location does not offer any dairy alternatives to serve with coffee or tea. This oversight made my experience here less enjoyable.

Dinner for two on a Saturday night; reservations at 6:45 pm with advance request for a booth. Upon arrival, it was already loud and busy and yet not fully seated. Several booths available but we were declined. "We save those for parties of four." Okay, so we expected to be sat at a 2-top but we were sat at a 4-top table. So why couldn't we have a booth? Not spending enough? Yet a family with kids would get a booth and probably spend less? Anyway, no sooner we were sat down, a couple was sat at a nearby booth. Ouch. Thanks for making us feel special. The food? It was very good. My friend loved his (very expensive) steak but thought it quite small for the price. I enjoyed my meal but in a very rare situation, I hate every last bite. I usually don't. I'm pretty small and always have leftovers. Always. Not this time. Portions were small. I had two alcoholic drinks, my friend had none. Our bill was $200 for two including tip. We expect to pay that at Davio's, not here. You get awesome puff pastry at the other place, too. Nothing free here! No bread, nothing. In sum, way overpriced for the quantity of food provided. Plus, they did not make us feel special. We won't be back.

I'm not someone who usually thinks to eat at a restaurant in a shopping area, but after 2 spectacular dining experiences I am looking forward to coming back for more of that PB bacon app and the sweet chili chicken, those mashed potatoes and hanger steak! Not to mention the cocktails! The dining space is gorgeous, warm and inviting. Relaxed, but with high end details, like the stunning floor tile and the table scapes. Here's what I tried so far: Cocktails: the cocktails are awesome, very well done and balanced ( not too sweet or tart) I had the well rested, and my friend had the mother brook, both good. I preferred the well rested. PB bacon- unexpectedly fantastic mixture of textures and flavors (salty, smoky, decadent bacon, with the sweet and salty PB and jelly, and a touch of zing and fresh from the jalapenos, apples and micro greens) Tuna tartare- I loved the tuna, avocado and nori- could have done without the rice tbh. Hanger steak frites- the steak is a highlight here and the fries are great. Don't even think about ordering it anything other than rare/medium rare as you would miss out on the melt in your mouth meat with the crunchy fries as a contrasting texture. BBQ steak tips and mashed potatoes- the sauce is pretty good, more spicy than sweet and the potatoes are creamy. The hanger steak was better IMHO, but this was still a great dish. Sweet chili chicken sandwich- WOW my favorite thing on the menu so far: the chicken was crispy, the slaw and sauce sweet tangy, sweet and crunchy. Even the bread was buttered and delicious. Came with thick cut fries that were sooo good (crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside) I think this is a good value of a meal for $16 for the quality. Creamed corn creme brulee- OMG the subtle sweet flavor of the corn and creaminess of the custard was incredible! Like dessert, for dinner :) Speaking of dessert: The S'mores mousse dessert was amazing! The chocolate mousse was good, but the star of the show were the accoutrements (graham cracker crumbles, marshmallow fluff and toasted mini meringue cookies!) I would go back for this dessert, and I don't even love desserts usually. My friend ordered the cheesecake pops- also very good, not too sweet you can really taste the cheesecake. My favorite flavor was the almond joy! Well, that's my review- the space is cozy and comfortable the food is really thoughtful and well done- not what you expect at a shopping center! Will return!

Under the watchful eye of owners Michael Feighery and his wife our Sunday brunch was a gastronomical extravaganza! The restaurant had a very hip and happening vibe, added to by an afternoon DJ. The food was imaginative and outstanding. We started with mimosas, Bloody Marys and chicken wings. Great spice on the Bloodies and the wings were moist & tender. For our mains we couldn't resist the imaginative bacon & peanut butter appetizer and the soma noodle salad to which I added chicken. These 2 dishes were over the top delicious. Another member of our group enjoyed a very juicy and messy to eat burger. Afraid we wouldn't have enough, we ordered a very ample and diversified charcuterie board, which we ended up bringing home. I'm sure all the menu offerings are equally delicious and owner MF has fun ideas to keep the atmosphere interesting. If you're a foodie, you won't visit just once.
