During an overnight stay in Jasper, our home base for helping to harvest grapes at Chateau Meichtry Family Vineyard, we asked the hotel reservation clerk her recommendation for a good restaurant nearby. Well, 61 Main was highly praised so we gave it a go and it was awesome! Luckily, we visited on Monday evening and found it to be the only day of the week when both lunch and dinner meals are served. We were seated by a very courteous young man although we had no reservation. Menu was simply inspired! My wife and I chose the Peruvian Fried Chicken Thigh with cauliflower cake and seared okra. Along with the entree was a piece of pepper spiced cornbread and, to our delight, a slice of strawberry-peach upsidedown cake was included as dessert. Service was excellent, food was outstanding, ambiance was pleasing. The wine list was adequate with both whites and reds present but selections weren't thought provoking. In short, when in the vicinity of Jasper, you simply must sample this exquisite jewel in the Blue Ridge foothills.

We were so excited to learn about this restaurant. It is a hidden gem tucked away in our mountains. The service on the phone and in person was delightful. The young women that we encountered were all very well trained and focused on excellent service. We were excited to try the NC Trout and it did not disappoint. It was so well prepared with a lite and crunchy texture on one side. There is a varied wine list and craft beers available. We were very impressed and expect to go back. Can't wait to tell our Ellijay friends!

Eight of us had very good food here. Nice menu, good drinks selection, very good service in a casual atmosphere. If you like loud music, this is the place for you. If you would prefer to hear your dinner companions speak, maybe not. The volume of the music cost The Local a star from me. Our musician friend says if the drummer would switch from sticks to brushes, problem solved.
