At First & Main, nestled on 100 W Main St in Turlock, CA, culinary delight awaits with an impressive menu and a vibrant dining atmosphere. Guests rave about the braised beef and Korean Stone Bowl, which showcase generous portions and bold flavors that leave a lasting impression. The restaurant's friendly staff enhances the experience, making diners feel welcomed and well-cared-for. Patrons like Travis Marquardt highlight the “amazing food” and “huge portions,” while TonyTesla was pleasantly surprised by the quality of sushi, particularly lauding the Last Dragon Roll, which struck him as “triple fire.” Erica Quinn's encounter with the Korean Stone Bowl and refreshing margaritas solidified the place as a must-visit gem. The attention to detail in service has been commended, with Chukwudi Osondu noting a standout experience despite a busy evening. First & Main’s atmosphere, however, is noted to be somewhat loud, making intimate conversations a challenge. Nonetheless, with its eclectic mix of large plates, exquisite dumplings, and innovative cocktails, it's evident that First & Main successfully combines flavor and a lively vibe, making it a worthy destination for both locals and travelers in search of culinary adventure.

Amazing food, huge portions, friendly staff. Only negative is there's no noise dampening in the ceiling so it's difficult to hear. Crab Louie Salad

DOR 8324: This is crazy!! This is my first 5 star review for a non Mexican food restaurant! I was blown outta the agua by this place. The sushi was 5 outta five. We had two sushi rolls. The Last Dragon Roll Bruce Lee edition was triple fire! The crispy rock shrimp roll. Also, 4.5 outta 5. But the sauce & shrimp that came on it!!... I could have a bucket full just of that! We also had 3 cocktail drinks! The mango frozen margaritas and the Mexican fire squat. Both 4 outta 5! Well made & punch you in the face delicious! Finally, the price! 90 for two grown ass adults exploring new places! Price was a 4 outta 5. I can see if it's pricey for some. But the quality and amount were on point! Zero issues giving it my seal of approval #gorditoapproved #fatboyapproved Chefs can't wait to return!

What a delightful surprise in the charming town of Turlock! Stumbled upon this hidden gem of a restaurant and couldn't have been more pleased. The Korean Stone bowl was an absolute standout—generous portions and bursting with flavor. And those 5 margaritas? Pure bliss! The bartender was not only super friendly but also incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu with fantastic recommendations. A must-visit for anyone passing through Turlock!

Went there for dinner last night with my friends and was truly blown away by the level of attention and quality of service by our waitress Jordyn despite how busy they were. The drinks were great, the calamari appetizer was delicious, the Vietnamese coffee was strong, and the food was delicious! I and my table had ordered 2 stone pot bowls, 1 shaking beef, 2 flat iron steaks, 1 ahi tuna plate, and a side order of truffle fries. It was some really lovely food! Would absolutely come back again for the food and the super friendly service!

First & Main offered a variety of drink options we ordered off of their seasonal drink menu. The drinks were well balanced. For appetizers, we ordered the Honey Walnut Shrimp and the Crispy Rock Shrimp Roll, both dishes were delicious. For our entrees we ordered the Salmon and Thai Shrimp Coconut Curry. The salmon was cooked to the temperature we requested, the sauce was creamy and tasty, the broccoli had a bit of char but tasted as if they were only steamed. The Thai Shrimp Coconut Curry was sweet but not overly sweet the coconut was not overpowering overall the dish was very flavorful and well balanced. I would recommend this restaurant to family and friends.

First time here, and they got it out of the park. Every dish was absolutely perfect. Food 5 stars, presentation 5 stars, service 5 stars, wonderful night. If you haven't been.... go, and thank me later

Great service and very, very yummy food! We ate family style, and shared the fried calamari, poke nachos, Thai shrimp coconut curry, Pan seared Ahi and Cheesecake with bruleed bananas and chocolate bundt cake for dessert. All were excellent, and even though we don't live near Turlock, I'd definitely come back next time I'm in the area!

Amazing dinner spot in down town, tasty menu and unique dishes. The poke nachos are a must and their small plates are such great additions to any meal. I love this place and the service is amazing. I love how present the owner is at dinner even came to introduce himself during our one of our first of many visits. Love this place!
