Burger (BEST BURGER EVER)
Jaz R.

Parking is right across the way and street parking super easy, all the staff are so friendly and hospitable and helpful! The vibe inside is super cute - rustic dim lit vibes. But the FOOD !?!? MY GOODNESS. Came back for the burger TWO DAYS IN A ROW- SO DELICIOUS!! And the Ribs - do NOT come here and not experience the ribs. Everything else i can't speak for but the burger and the ribs are ELITE. The food quality here is unmatched.

We stopped at MSM for a quick bite on our way back to Atlanta after visiting Rosie Mae's. The plan was just a little teaser since we were heading home for dinner... but wow. There were three of us, so we shared one burger with fries (they're potatoes sliced into coin-sized pieces ) and each had a cocktail. Everything was delicious. The ambiance, the crowd, the staff, total vibe. The energy in this place is so good. Honestly, I'm low-key mad we only ordered one burger between the three of us because it was THAT good. I'd absolutely go back and order my own next time. Great spot, great food, great energy.

Cornbread
Eddie C.

If you're in Chattanooga and want a meal that feels both elevated and comforting, Main Street Meats is the spot. We started with their cornbread appetizer, and let me just say--it's the kind of cornbread that makes you rethink every other version you've ever had. Perfectly baked, rich, and just the right balance of sweet and savory. For the main event, I went with the pork porterhouse paired with goat cheese grits, and wow. The pork was juicy and flavorful, cooked to perfection, and the creamy, tangy grits were the perfect sidekick. It's one of those dishes you'll be craving long after you leave. On top of the incredible food, I have to give a big shoutout to Madeline. She wasn't just our bartender--she was our host, guide, and storyteller for the evening. Attentive, welcoming, and spot-on with recommendations, she really elevated the whole experience. Main Street Meats nails the vibe: a mix of upscale dining with a warm, approachable feel. Between the food, atmosphere, and Madeline's hospitality, it's easily one of the best dining experiences I've had in Chattanooga. Highly recommend!

This was a happy accident. I was suppose to go to a different spot but said let me give this place a try. It was truly amazing. I love the finished wood minimalist look. Indoor and outdoor covered seating. The service Shoutout Lex!!!was amazing, and the entire team was amazing. The food was so fresh and the meat melted in my mouth. Everything tasted amazing. One of the best meals I've had in Chattanooga in a long time. The broccoli was so good a little salty but it was such a chill vibe. There is a bar with lots of aged libations and a large bar variety.

Half Turkey pesto sandwich and half burger
Julia C.

Holy cow!!!! A must dine-in spot in Chattanooga in my opinion. The sandwiches at lunchtime (including burgers) are DELICIOUS. We had the Warm Smoked Turkey and a burger and split them. They totally knew the drill in terms of splitting a sandwich half-and-half for two people to share!! I would HIGHLY recommend going here. It's so fun to eat locally, and this had a complete local field from the food to the ambiance and the AMAZING service (thanks Seth!). If I lived in Chattanooga, this would be my go to lunch spot for meeting friends. But NOW it will just be my go to lunch spot every time I'm in town!! My boyfriend wouldn't let me make this review complete, without shouting out there incredible bourbon selection too ! just a cherry on top of a perfect experience

PB&J Cream Cheese Panna Cotta @tiffhuangry
Tiff H.

MEAT SWEATS WITH MAIN STREET MEATS | just kidding we had just the right amount of meat to NOT give us meat sweats - I was craving a steak and we apologized profusely as we were seated outside (with our pup) right before closing time at 8:30pm. However, the server was super nice and didn't care that we had arrived so late. We got a fun little impromptu light show since the fire station across the street had an emergency so that was exciting. We went big with the Bear Creek Farm 48 day dry-aged porterhouse, served with bordelaise & mashed potatoes. The steak was juicy and tender, although the fat could have been rendered a LITTLE more, but I still enjoyed the nearly perfect medium rare. The server also recommended the autumn squash which may not have looked like much but was delicious.it was a hearty meal for 2 - maybe lacking in some greens but one meal without greens can't kill us... We were convinced to order the PB&J Cream Cheese Panna Cotta - and even though we were stuffed it was a fun way to end the meal. It really tasted like we were eating an elevated PB&J in panna cotta form. We will 100% be back for the burger, tallow fries and a cocktail next time we're in town...

Pretty good service and descent food quality! I would come back, everything is pricy nowadays

NY strip
Alec T.

Hard to decide if lunch is better than dinner! Lunch, or dinner has an amazing bacon cheeseburger that all other burgers are compared to. Amazing bartenders available. To mix up some goodies,... Dinner time we had ribs, New York strip steak, add on broccoli, mashed potatoes, and about the best potato salad I've ever had! (Potato salad has some horseradish in it that gives it a little heat, Amazing ) Not our first trip, definitely not our last.

Corn bread
Kurt H.

Ok I'm a foodie, I Travel the world and I've always said " a steak is a steak" until now. Possible the best ribeye I've ever had and the broccoli with garlic was breathtaking. Can't finish what they delivered but I'll be back someday!

Is this a kid friendly restaurant?

I don't recall a kids menu and every thing seemed "more involved" than food that kids usually like.

Why do open at Noon on Saturday's?

The butcher shop opens at 11am and the restaurant opens at noon for lunch service. Happy to get you started with a beverage if you come in before noon. Hope this helps!

Entertaining a vegetarian and would like to bring her here for dinner - is there an off-menu entree available?

The do not officially have a vegetarian menu. They do have salads, hummus, and sorted cheese.

I have a hard time with my rating of G's Detroit Sausages…read more What I love: The location is super convenient on MLK. It's great to have such a niche shop that has a really strong personality and voice. Some of the sausage is really solid. The spices on the food are really nice and well executed. It's a good place to experiment... and discover what "turkey ribs" are -- YUM! What I don't love: The quality of the sausages is decent, but one of my packs had freezer burn, which was disappointing. That really destroyed the flavor. The red beans and rice tasted nice, but was mostly rice. The gumbo also tasted nice, but was more like jambalaya... there was no "gumbo/stew" quality to it. It was a rice dish with some sauce and meat/veggies in it. That was confusing. It also took 27 minutes to get my order of pre-made gumbo. That was frustrating when ordering quick food to go which requires no cooking. I think there's potential for this spot, if the food and service model can be cleaned up a bit.

I had the fun experience of visiting my parents and seeing the different sites and tastes of…read moreChattanooga. While we waited for my dad's order of a sausage sandwich, we were treated to free red beans and rice. This had a lot of red beans and meat. Lots of flavor. Then, we read the articles on the wall. The establishment was very clean. The owner shared about his history. The sausage had the right amount of spice. I would recommend this place for catering a picnic. I hope it does well.

Awesome place for lunch!…read more This is the old Green Spot location and it's a good one. We always get the cheeseburger and side.....typically tater tots..... It is fast and delicious and VERY competitively priced at $10 per person. They are friendly and their meats are fresh and delicious! They also have a great selection of choice cuts of meats.....this is a classic butcher shop. And with all the ingredients and cooking components right there. Pretty delicious cup cakes too!

What a cool & novel place! A Deli, a Butcher Shop, a Grocery, a yummy cafe where the meats are…read morefresh off the butcher's block and beer on tap all rolled into a one stop shop! Love it! We ordered a Reuben and our hostess was gracious enough (without our asking!) to have it cut in half and served in separate baskets with 2 variety of pickles for each. The broccoli salad was delicious; made fresh with yellow & red peppers, red onion, and cauliflower. We enjoyed browsing the store seeing some interesting food & imported beverage items and sampling their homemade pimento cheeses. Be sure to check out their website & menu! We will stop again when we are in the Dalton area and come prepared with our cooler. We are already thinking this will make a great stop to pack a picnic when heading to Chattanooga for the Riverfront Nights this summer.
