Main Event Restaurant & Bar Reviews

One of my favorite spots for the PPV events... Wings & drinks.

Been here more times than I can count. Although it's not cheap considering it's a sports bar, the food is delicious. I usually stick to the Tennessee Chicken or something similar but my family raves about the fish, as it's always fresh.

It's a sports bar but the food is great and the staff are pleasant. Plenty of seating and good for families. A nice place.

VERY nice atmosphere, very nice staff, drinks were reasonable, but i gotta give three stars because of how ridiculous the food was priced... bar apps for 15-20 bucks?! entrees at a sports bar at 20-30 bucks? come on, the place was packed, the working man wants to eat here too.

Great atmosphere, waitstaff was great and the food was fantastic. We had the calamari and the peppercorn steak. Billy and Gina have this place running really well. Fun night out.

Food & service good, a bit noisy, too much going on loud music mixed with multiple tv's

def beers only..ufc fight night extra $5 per person, which by the way no one told me when i was making reservations. had the wings and olympic platter. def all pre packaged frozen garbage. did I mention overpriced?? waitress checked on us twice in 2 hours and I had to ask for the check.the place is nice inside and all.miller's ale house blows this place away with food and prices.

Excellent service, great seafood, outdoor dining.

Just got out of hospital. It is midnight with hours posted until 1am. Rushed me to make food order then came back saying they only serve based on business. Let waitress know I would pay anything it cost even a full table worth of food and let her know I just got out of hospital but she did not care..

Great place to grab some food & watch sports. Staff was accommodating and pleasant

The ribs were great. The wings were too spicy. The waitress was terrific.

These other reviews have it all wrong...ate there tonight...service was excellent...food was excellent in taste/presentation..talked with a couple of other patrons and they stated food is always good there...just goes to show u that you can't always believe what you read..otherwise I would have never found this great place...bartender was awesome..I think her name was Sheryl..def give this place a try.

Sports Bar food is excellent you'll have a good time try it I think you'll like it

Food was delicious, definitely better than what it looks like it would taste like. Lol. Place looks like an applebees but food tasted like quality restaurant food. Didnt earn 5 stars because there was a kids party at same time and kids were running all over restaurant and were extremely loud. Other than that excellent

Did not like the chilli but wings and stir-fry was good. Decent service.

Food is very overpriced. Waitress did not offer to refill our drinks. Will be crossing this off our list of places to eat.
Don't order onion rings. A mouthful of oil in every bite

Fun, non-fancy but high quality place with an awesome amount of TVs

The only good thing was the waitress unless microwaved garlic bread is your thing. The food was less than 1 star. Wish we went to McDonalds across the street.

Cool place. Bartenders work hard to keep it all moving along.

Love the wings. Grilled wings not on the menu so you have to ask

Great food and atmosphere. Our waitress Anna was phenomenal! So sweet, on top of things, helpful and gave good recommendations. We waited around for the manager just so we could tell him about her wonderful service but unfortunately he never showed up.

Terrific sports bar Lunch was excellent Service was very good

Visiting from out of town. Found the food way over-priced, and of mediocre quality.
Disappointing.
Staff was friendly though!

Sports bar food is mediocre-at-best Services good if you just interested in the ball game it really doesn't matter much

Drinks were good nachos kinda average service waa good

All the televisions were on the same channel
Other than that, Danny, the waitress was great. Food good. No complaints

I was in town for work, went to this sports bar for the baseball season/playoffs. Asked for the sound of three game to be put on, they turned it on for the tv in front of me but the owner turned the music up in the rest if the place. BAD sports bar

If you are prepared for the noise level of a sports bar, this is a fun neighborhood place for a late meal. Or any time, but it's one of the few Plainview places that serve dinner late. Menu is ridiculously large. Options for everyone! Food is fresh, cooked well, creative, and tasty. A true local fallback. Never disappointing.

Last night the restaurant was packed with a wedding after party, Yankee fans and sports fanatics. The staff was running around in full speed and the service never lacked nor did the kitchen. Well done Main Event!

Good food and fast friendly service. Lunch specials are a good deal. Lots of TV's for sports'ing

The Waygu was very tender and buttery - each bite had its own personality. The Rossini was topped with Grilled Foie Gras and Black Truffle which was a nice way to top your steak if one felt that they need a saucy steak. The scallops were a nice surprise because they were cooked all the way through but were still tender. The panna cotta was silky smooth with the rhubarb compote that gave a little kick to it.

The calamari was chewy the grilled shrimp tasted like rubber and the rice was just plain nasty and soggy. I can't believe I paid $40 for my meal it should have been $4 not $40 I know where I will never go again and that's here. YUCK!!!!!

This place is always great. Good food and service.

Great place, family orientated, great staff and very friendly, excelent menu and a great bar going since 2005

This location at Plainview is quite nice, right on Old Country Road of Rt 135. We went on a weekday during lunch and so the place was quiet. But during sporting events, this place is crowded and noisy. The food is standard, nothing which says "Wow". You get tacos, burgers, paninis, sandwiches, wraps, salads and more. The portion size is good, but the prices are on the higher side.

This place is great for a nice fresh meal. Friendly atmosphere, staff and workers are very professional. I recommend Main Event for a get together with friends and or family!

I saw the prior reviews about it being fast service. I'm just concerned about how a medium well hamburger could be brought to my table 4 minutes after placing the order?

Said it was open till 1am. Get there at 11:30 and it was closed

Pretty solid spot. If you've ever been to a sports bar like Greene Turtle, this experience is very similar. Individual tables and larger tables accommodating different size groups. Lots of TVs so you can watch basically 5 things at once. Pretty solid bar/sports food. Service is also very good. Attentive staff.

One of our favorite casual eateries. Excellent hamburgers.

Food is terrific! Excellent service! Great for dine in and take out. I get take out a few times a month. I like to sit down and order my food and have a beer. By the time I am done the food is ready. Excellent tap beer selections. Wide variety from pilsners to IPAs.

Always great food and drinks. Highly recommend the Buffalo cauliflower

A perfect Sports Bar to unwind with family and friends.

The helpings were generous. And the seasoned rice is a must.

Great food and service people were very friendly. Bar was also very comfortable.

Worse service ever.once again using covid as and excuse. It was not the waitress it was how being run .

Good food and service. Great for sports fans and to bring your kids.

Very well kept and accessible spot. They offer big portions and for fair rates. We enjoyed the meals very much and the waiters were very welcoming and explanatory. Will definitely recommend this place.

Great burger & salad. Loved indoor social distance with tables. Thank you!! Will be back.

Good food and a great beer selection. Order your wings grilled they are the best.

My second visit to this place just about a year after the first made me very happy. I'm not in this neck of the woods much... but when I'm here this is a go to kind of place. It's a great sports bar... plenty of screens, friendly environment but it has unexpectedly upscale food. Chilean Sea Bass anyone?! They do the usual... wings and sliders... and they do that well. But they also do healthy alternatives... lentil soup, incredible hummus, tasty salads. I've been here with large groups both times and everyone left happy. Great tap selection. Especially friendly service. Last year we were trying to set up a special event and management was very cooperative. Our event fell through... but they were great about it all. They surpass all expectations for a sports bar!!

Great staff..Great food and drinks.. Great for all occasions

A very family friendly place with gluten free and veggie options.

Great food. Never too crowded good food and drinks.

Ehhh noisy and the fare is sub par...predictable in a pinch

Fun sports bar and restaurant. Food and service always great!

Fish n chips! They are great... along with the Cap'n and Pineapple!

Very good service friendly staff great sports memorabilia and one of the better steaks I've had in a long time

Fast friendly service...large portions! VERY good.
