Chef Tony Maws has been showered with accolades since opening his doors. Each night, Maws & crew create an ever changing a la carte menu that includes dishes like spice-bread-crusted wild boar chops and whole-roasted Vermont squab. The wine list, too, is sure to impress thanks to an emphasis on vineyards that tend to be overlooked by the more mainstream eateries. Craigie on Main is a hard reservation to score at the last minute because along with new diners, Craigie has a loyal following of repeat customers who return time and time again not for their favorites (because Maws literally creates the menu daily based on the best ingredients he has found) but for what they may find and love that night.

- French: "Splurge for the tasting menu, the eight course if you can spring the $118.00! You'll be treated to a journey through creative French food you'll remember long after you've completed your meal."
- Best for French Because: Far from inexpensive, Craigie on Main is worth every penny. The daily menu contains a variety of seasonal French offerings that you won't find elsewhere.
