    So happy to have found this restaurant in Libertyville. We went on a Saturday night with another couple. Great wine selection. The guys both had chicken piccata which was excellent and my friend and I shared warm Brussel sprout salad and firecracker shrimp. Large portion. Absolutely delicious. Love the atmosphere. Cozy. Great place for girls night out also. We'll be back.

    This is a wonderful place for a bottle of women and a nice Italian meal. I ordered Ossobucco and my only issue was that for over $40 there was not very much veal in the dish. All else was bey good but I missed a good serving of veal.

    As always, the experience at MainStreet Social was superb. Food was excellent and of course Shanna took great care of us during our meal. I’m a regular, but I introduced MainStreet Social to two work colleagues who are new to Libertyville. They were extremely pleased.

    Everything about this restaurant is wonderful. Every staff member is friendly and welcoming. We went for my birthday and multiple staff members wished me a happy birthday and made the day special! The food is phenomenal, the mocktail I got was the best I’ve ever had; I truly can’t say more wonderful things about this place!
