We enjoyed a fantastic meal at Barrhaven State & Main last night - Feb. 21st, 2026. It was our first time visiting State & Main and we would highly recommend this restaurant. The food was delicious, hot and the service was excellent! Our Servers were Robyn and Kyana. Robyn served our main meal & Kyana dealt with our after supper drinks & dessert when some friends joined us. My wife and I enjoyed the steak while our daughter enjoyed the salmon. All were cooked exactly how we asked. They were both very friendly, personable & efficient. They made us feel very welcomed and never made us feel rushed. We will definitely be returning to this location in the near future. BTW - We sat in one of their semi-circular booths which was very comfortable.

First time visiting today. (Sunday 2 ish). Fabulous food, excellent service and wonderful atmosphere. We were able to hold a conversation and the music was just background which was wonderful! A lot of places these days seem to think loud is wanted, it is not, so this was a relaxing meal and enjoyed. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing experience.
Robyn is exceptional — highly professional, confident, and clearly excellent at what she does.
Becca truly lives and breathes State & Main. Her care, composure, and leadership presence are immediately evident.
I recognized the caliber of both of them right away. They operate at a level that reflects experience, trust, and real responsibility. State & Main are fortunate to have them. Enjoy guys

I have been here three times now, have ordered three different meals, and each have been delicious! I never leave hungry, yet I also never leave with that full bloating feeling one often gets after having restaurant food. One item on my order that never changes, however, is my drink of choice: The Sunshine State. Made with Peach Shnapps and rum, this slushie concoction tastes so good I could easily get plastered if I ever had room to drink more than one! Our server, Kendra, was also very lovely. Also, a perfect place for a date night.

We had the best experience yesterday at State and Main.
We were looking for a place to host an engagement party for my sister that could accommodate a little bit less than 50 people and I am so glad we chose to go with State and Main. Their 4 seasons patio was a perfect space to have our event separated from the restaurant for some privacy and you would never know that it was -40° despite being on the patio in January!! The service was amazing from the moment we started the planning process with Esra (the GM) to our arrival for set up (which they allowed us to come before our reservation time to get a head start on) to the killer servers and bartenders. So many of our guests commented on how great the service was and how much they enjoyed all of the interactions they had with all the staff!
Overall we had an incredible experience and I cannot recommend this restaurant enough when it comes to catering to the customer experience. Well done State and Main and thank you for being apart of a moment so important to us!!
