Wow. Simply wow. Party of five had the tasting menu and drinks, meal was exquisite. Service was absolutely top-notch I cannot recommend Neil's restaurant enough. read more

A quick walk from our house brought us to Field & Main where we celebrated our 10year anniversary. I made the reservation weeks ago on open table. As we entered the old house, our host came out of the closet lol. Very cute use of space. First words were "welcome, Happy Anniversary we have your table ready". We got seated in the first room. Our server was very attentive while still giving us plenty of space to enough each other company. Drinks arrived quickly after we placed our order and enjoy equally as fast. Devil eggs were amazing. For entrees we had beef roast and pork porterhouse. Both equally delicious. Roast potatoes were amazing too and the bottle of Crappy something from New Zealand was a great pick. No dessert we were stuffed... We finished the night with Glen 18year sitting at the rocking chairs before you get to the bar then moved to the bar where we met Tony. He was kind enough to give us a tour of the house formerly owned by my current neighbor family the O'Bannon's. She told me family stories about the house and was nice to see the places she told me about. When you visit this place ask about the shoes.

Excellence. We booked an entire room for a rehearsal dinner. Tony, who I think is the owner (I probably should have asked) helped me plan the event months in advance and created a very interesting menu that really reflected the local area. We had lots of out of towners that were very impressed with the local fare. Everything was fresh and artfully prepared. The staff was incredibly attentive and un-intrusive, and the value we got for the booking fee (a set price minimum) was more than fair. I would recommend to anyone, and hope to be back for a regular dinner soon. read more

The skirt steaks we ordered were cooked perfectly! However, that, along with our appetizer of stuffed peppers (which was basically a small/medium size pepper stuffed with coleslaw) were covered in WAY too much seasalt which detracted from the overall taste of the dishes. For a $33 steak dish, the only sides were some small potatoes. The dish didn't have much going on for it and I'd recommend ordering an actual side dish if you need more food to fill you. I'm only a 105 lb woman but that entire steak dish and the appetizer did not completely fill me. As formy drink, the "red lantern" (slight variation of an old fashioned) was terrible... A $12 cocktail that tasted like orange bitters with a drop of bourbon. I had it sent back and tried a beer instead of risking another terrible cocktail. read more

Had another wonderful experience at Field on Main last weekend. Wow, if you have not tried their Bloody Mary then you don't know what you are missing. The service is always top notch and the food is something to write home about. Make a reservation as they are full! read more

My family and I were not impressed with the limited lunch menu and slow service. The drinks however were great! The shrimp salad was a disappointment with overcooked shrimp and tasteless dressing in which I only had one bite. Comping the dish would not have made a big dent in our $350 bill, but it would have gone a long way to provide smart customer service. None of us will be returning. read more

The good news: lovely building and dining areas including at the kitchen. Great wine list and Sommelier, Meredith. Bad news: the Quail was with head and feet so presentation was gross, quite frankly. Skinniest quail I have ever seen. About 6 bites worth. Never shot one that small. Commendably, they took it off the bill and two staff let me know they reported my comments to the chef. Rolled flank steak with a light horseradish sauce was so-so but cooked to medium rare as requested. Salmon was good. Desserts - the two we had - were mediocre. We shared them and for the pastry based dessert the waiter should have brought a knife and forks. Disappointed we were disappointed because we had heard good things about the place. Given the number of diners, it was a sign of a better-than-we experienced restaurant. read more

We had a wonderful dinner at Field & Main. Felt very comfortable with their Covid procedures. Had dinner inside but the restaurant also offers private cabanas in their garden which we will try to reserve the next time. Waiter was very friendly and knowledgable. We ordered the garden salad, tomato and peach salad, bison steak and yellow tail snapper. All were nicely prepared and delicious. We split a chocolate chip cookie sundae for dessert, which was excellent too. Overall a very nice experience. read more

Omg!! Randomly found this super delicious place cuz the vineyard doesn't have food on Wednesday! Great service, dog friendly, awesome food! Definitely will come back read more

One of the best meal ever! Scallop starter was perfection. The pork chop, Steelhead trout , Brussels sprouts and Jerusalem artichokes only confirmed the talent of the chef and his crew. And not to forget, our waitress was outstanding! Very highly recommend this little gem! Looking forward to returning soon! read more

I'd heard about it before I visited - but despite what I'd heard, I went as a guest in a party of four. Suffice to say that it lived up to my expectations. I won't be back. The "creative" menu was a masterpiece of pretentious hyperbole - but guess what? The emperor wasn't wearing any clothes... They clearly work hard (overly hard) to be "different" - but that is only a merit if the content is good. It wasn't. All four of us chose the beef tenderloin, and that beef was delicious: the star of the entire evening. The sloppy, black, soot-flavored mush that came with it was disgusting. The presentation was just embarrassing - it looked like a small pile of manure on the plate. The portion size (had the mush been at all appealing) was very small. Fortunately, I had ordered a side of the crispy potatoes with garlic - which were actually nice, and I ended up sharing them with the whole table (see comment re. portion sizes). Still hungry, we all ordered dessert (which is something I never normally do). I ordered the "apple pie sundae with shortbread cookie". That sounded safe enough, right? Not a lot you can do to mess that up. Sadly, they managed to do exactly that. The "sundae" was cooked apple on top of vanilla ice-cream, with caramel sauce drizzled down the inside sides of the glass. Left as it was, it would have been... ok... Not particularly good, but ok... However, to my surprise, when it was served, the waitress promptly poured a small glass of milk over it before I could stop her. Pouring milk over ice-cream instantly turns it into a sloppy mush. I love good shortbread. The two slightly collapsed, doughy discs that came with this dessert were neither good nor real shortbread. The service was enthusiastically attentive and smug. If your sense of worth centers around hollow pretension... if you enjoy feeling like you're "in with the in crowd" and don't have much discernment about what actually constitutes outstanding food... then this is the place for you. read more

This is a great place in Marshall, Va. Jackie the bar tender is wonderful. Her taste is music is fun and entertaining. The food is creative and pleasing to the pallet. Excellent service too. Our kitchen server overheard us saying something about a dish, and had the kitchen remake it without us asking (but not because what she heard was negative, just because she wanted us to try it a different way). Very impressive! We will be back with friends. read more

We decided to drive from Arlington to Marshall yesterday to try this restaurant that I had heard about. It was well worth the trip! The restaurant seating, both outdoors in the cabanas and indoors is exquisite, service is knowledgable and very attentive and the food was EXCEPTIONAL! We tried the "present" menu which is a six course 'tasting' menu - it was amazing. The vegetables were all fresh and locally sourced and the teriyaki soft shell crab was the best soft shell I've ever tasted. It was a more than 5-star experience and we'll definitely be back. Kudos to Neal and his talented staff for a superb dining experience. And don't miss the cosmopolitan - best I've ever had! read more

Yuuuuummmm!!! This place is a rollercoaster for my tastebuds! The food and the cocktails are top notch and the staff is so warm and nice...kind of like the mushroom broth I was served before my meal. Currently looking for every excuse to go back! read more

Wonderful food and ambiance! We ordered an array of food from their menu and had a hard time deciding which was our favorite, everything we tried was tasty and delicious. Sitting in the main room by the cooking area was also quite the experience: typically, being near the "kitchen" at a restaurant can be disruptive and at times unpleasant. Not so here! Unique in its kind. Will return! read more

It awesome atmosphere. Quiet little place and great customer service. However, this place is expensive... everything a la carte. Be prepared for that. read more

The food was decent, but not worth the high price tag. The artwork on display is basically just garbage someone picked up along the highway and glued to the wall. Kind of weird seeing bits and pieces of cotton, plastic, and Bobby pins stuck together with twigs and grass. I was expecting to see a used syringe or condom somewhere in the mix. read more

My first time visiting. I will for sure be back. The food and service were amazing! We had the deviled eggs to start, black angus rib eye steak, burger and the carrot cake. The lemongrass beer was refreshing too. read more

Field & Main Restaurant - Seafood Near Me - Marshall, Virginia

Excellent meal and service. The cabana was a bit chilly but well worth it because our meal so very good. Tony-thanks for the great service.

While it is refreshing to see a new restaurant that offers quality attention to their food and atmosphere in Marshal I am not convinced the prices they are charging align well with any concept of portioning. $22 for two scallops is pretty steep by any standard although they were pretty good. $17 for 10 gnocchi left me hungry. Also there are no sides that come with any entree nor is there bread offered unless you want again to pay for it. Also, the menu, while diverse and interesting is exceptionally difficult to read because the menu items are written very small and there is no line spacing. They do have an impressive wine collection as well as a $65 16oz ribeye from a locally owned farm. What really perplexed me is they are offering a bowl of Pho for $35 while the best Pho in the state of Virginia - produced by actual Vietnamese immigrants is only $12 in Fairfax. I won't be back and I don't mind spending money on quality food - I left after spending $111.00 before a tip on three people and I was still hungry. read more

I have to start with the biggest surprise of the evening-the pig ears. My mom has tried to get me to eat all things cartilage for years and I have always hated everything, but my husband wanted to try them and they were a part of the five course meal we tried. The texture was crispy and fantastic. It has a really delicious buffalo sauce and complemented with some equally delicious cheese and the freshness and acidity of celery and fennel ribbons. The deviled eggs were not my favorite. The peppers and the chicken were great, complex and balanced flavors. The soft shell and the steak were also delicious, but a bit heavy on the salt. The twist on the French onion soup delivered everything you would expect. The dessert was lovely, very heavy on the chocolate in the cookie, so I would have preferred a different ice cream and honestly it doesn't need any. The marshmallows were perfectly roasted! The char on them made this dish! read more

A terrific restaurant experience run by great people. No one prepares a chicken better! A good choice for the entire family, well-located and with comfortable seating. Neal and Starr are wonderful hosts. read more

My wife and I have dined here twice. The first time was for New Years and we instantly knew we found a new local favorite and would be back. We made a reservation for our Valentines Day dinner and this night just exceeded our expectations. We were seated at a table that was close to the door and my wife was cold so they moved us to a table seated inward towards the kitchen. That accommodation alone, and the fact that they were so kind about it, started our night off great. A manager came to us while we were waiting for our dinner and asked if our new location was warmer for my wife. She answered honestly, saying it was much better - but she is naturally always cold as it is, and thanked them for accommodating her. About 5 minutes later the owner of the restaurant approached our table with a gift for my wife. It was a beautiful tan soft shawl wrapped up with twine. He said it was a gift from them to help keep her warm. I had to come home and write this review, as we are still so shocked at the kindness and amazing customer service we received tonight. The icing on the cake was the wonderful meal we had. Dinner was just incredible. The food was so flavorful, our server was so kind. This place really goes above and beyond and I'm so glad we live so close by and can eat here frequently. read more

Went here for a special occasion with family. Never been before but seemed like good food. Not only was the food very good, the service was excellent. Possibly the best service I've ever had. And I think most people would agree that bad service can make food taste worse. But no worries here - we were here for approximately 3.5 hours we ordered appetizers, entrees, desserts and many drinks and our waiter kept up no problem. We never had to ask for a drink refill - by the time we were thinking about dessert the menu was in front of us. He was honestly the best and made great food taste even better. Would absolutely come back here. read more

My hubby and I ate there Saturday evening and both of us were blown away by the flavors, the quality, the service and the ambiance. Our waiter, Hank, was very knowledgeable about wine pairings and found the perfect wine for each course. We started with the Deviled Eggs and a delish raw beet dip that my super picky husband loved. My hubby had the angus steak, which was cooked to perfection. I had pappardelle pasta with rabbit confit and duck egg, and I do believe I was in heaven the whole time I was eating. I've never had rabbit before and it was b-a-n-a-n-a-s. We had the broccolini with smoked mushrooms and brussel sprouts on the side, along with the sourdough bread with bacon butter. BACON BUTTER. Seriously, I cannot stress this enough - order the bread and bacon butter. Our desserts were amazing too. Butterscotch budino for me and chocolate brownie with raspberry ice cream for him. We didn't want dinner to end. It is expensive here, but the experience was worth the price. read more

We tried Field and Main last Friday. I must say I love the dining room very comfortable, We tried the Gnocchi in tomato cream sauce with fried duck egg, mushroom terrine and duck confit. Loved the Gnocchi and Duck, mushroom not so much. Then we shared the steak, rockfish, potatoes, green beans and collards. All but the rockfish were a big hit at our table! The fish was beautiful but tasteless. We enjoyed our drinks and the service was good as well. Definitely will be back! read more

Had a wonderful dinner last night with a group of four. Our server Julie was great. Made wonderful selections and was very attentive. Before we left we had a nice conversation with Tony (one of the managers) who gave us some of the background about the restaurant and its vision for the community. He was a wealth of information and we can't wait to go back! read more

Very cool older building with a ton of history. It is extremely warm and inviting and while it is great for groups, it also has an intimate feel. The menu has a wide variety of options and everyone I was with enjoyed their meal. The food and service was on point. And parking is a breeze! read more

Hands down one of the best meals I've ever had in my life. Ingredients are fresh, chef is professional, staff is friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere is perfection. read more

Food looks amazing and you eat with your eyes first, after that you most definitely will not be disappointed. The food is always good fresh meats and veggies, their sauces and wonderful. Love the old day feel the building has too. read more

I'm guessing that Field and Main is a great place for Marshallites and Middlebergians who are tired of having to come in from the country to eat tepid food and drink average wine from Virginia. First off, I would assume that if you use Open Table to book your reservation you are going to banished to the Siberia that is the upstairs dining room. When we arrived and were escorted to this brightly lit, white-walled interrogation room, we were greeted with some sort of 1930's jazz that made me wonder if the restaurant was owned by the Great Gatsby or if flappers frequented the place. Once seated we were immediately set upon by the staff to get drink orders, even before we had opened a menu. I expect that they want to get you drinking to make you forget about the fact that the floor and all the tables shake every time a guest or waiter walks across the room. Here's a tip to all restaurateurs, if you have an upstairs room, make it worth your patron's efforts to go there, no a sad conciliation prize. It was interesting to watch patrons each and enter the room, show visible disappointment that they were stuck "in siberia' and then each continue to look around the room wondering who they had angered to arrive in this place. We ordered a few Tequila- based drinks from the house menu that were good...not amazing,,but good. Of note, naming a drink a ubiquitous name and having a bunch of unknown ingredients does not assist in the selection process. Our server was helpful in describing when asked, but not everyone is a mixologist (as if that's a thing) We order the fried pig's ear with bleu cheese and crystal;s sauce, ( which was tasty but arrived cold.) and the beet salad. The beet salad was very nicely done, although it was a running joke between my wife and I that the server had told us that this portion of three beets (two the size of a quarter and one the size of a half dollar) was a shareable dish. After finishing our drinks, we then decided to visit the wine list, as we have to drive back to civilization we chose wines by the glass. Surprise they are all from Virginia, (except for a malbec). While I am not a sommelier, I know that there are better options out there than bottles from Virginia. Our entrees were fine,but arrived cool, (I assume due the trek from the kitchen) My berkshire pork chop was nicely done and my wife's pork roast was good, (please know that it is a traditional pork roast and thus far fattier than what you might normally encounter). Our sides were good, but I though they were pricey for handful of carrots next to fire and some collared greens. Most sides at a steakhouse are at the same price point and at distinguish themselves vis a vis quantity or flavor. All said, for nearly $200 for two people, with two drinks, two glasses of wine, two apps and two entrees, I think I can find more interesting options that Field and Main. read more

I love Field & Main. It's the complete package - outstanding, personal service from the owner and the staff, excellent food and wine no matter what the selection and wonderful ambience. We recently recommended it to our son and DIL for a special dinner and they loved it as well. Can't wait until our next visit - it's always a great experience. read more

We went for our 17th wedding anniversary and had a most wonderful time!!! We opted for the "feast"--a five course meal selected by the chef. Every course was better than the last. Our favorites were the pork belly and roasted carrots, but everything was delicious. The wine suggestion was spot on and the old fashions were perfect. Try the bread!!! And ask to see the hearth!! The service was attentive but not overbearing. The atmosphere was welcoming and warm. We will definitely be back! Thanks Field and Main for a wonderful celebration. read more

Great service, cute settings. The food was delicious, especially the cornbread pudding and pigs ear appetizer. I wish they had cappuccinos but the tea selection was great. read more

Awesome experience! We did the tasting menu & enjoyed all of the courses. The customer service, ambiance, & food were great! It's A LOT of food but you can ask to box some to take home. read more

We have been picking up from Field and Main during Covid. So fantastic. Burger is amazing. Food has been brought out very promptly.

I've waited to come and try Field and Main. I should not have waited. We sat at the Chef's table and watched the brilliance happen. Both the food and service were impeccable. I would give the team a 6 if I could. Congrats Neal and Anthony! read more

Came here for a fantastic birthday dinner. Wonderful tasting menu and attentive servers!

My wife and I think this is the best restaurant in the region. The owner is a consummate professional and a wonderful host, and his qualities are reflected in the staff. We enjoy everything on the menu and the wine selection is excellent. We recommend reserving early and requesting seats at the kitchen bar where you have a front row seat to the entire chef operation. read more

We went to brunch there on Nov 20, 2016 and made a reservation 2 weeks ahead. Be prepared to show your hunt club membership when you walk in the door. Maybe that will get you a table in the elegant "front room" With plenty of empty seats there we were put in the farthest rear corner of the back"bar room" we were the only ones seated there. We were appropriately dressed, jacket and tie and pearls. The wait for service in the empty room was long enough for the server to apologize for neglecting us. The mimosa was great but strongly advise reviewing the menu before you go. The only eggs to be ordered were in an omelet smothered in Mexican ingredients. The bananas foster monkey bread was good but I was sure they forgot the whiskey cream mentioned in the description. Turns out it is drizzled slightly and impossible to detect. My husband ordered an authentic Hawaiian dish, small portions in a small bowl. I am glad we ran a brunch trial as a dinner there would seriously make a dent in our dining out budget. We won't be back read more
