There’s a sense of excitement that you will delight in as you enter The Main Event.  The Farmingdale location boasts about 80 flatscreen TVs while the Plainview restaurant has about 50, all surrounding the bar room and dining rooms.  An eclectic mix of people, some enjoying sports events, some engrossed in conversation, all have one thing in common... they came for a wonderful meal in a casual relaxed setting.

We tasted several appetizers from succulent ribs with tangy BBQ sauce to zesty buffalo wings to crunchy sweet coconut shrimp.  Juicy mini burgers on soft pretzel rolls is a favorite here.  The vast menu reads like a sports book with categories like Starting Line-up, On the Green, All Star Entrees, and All Pro Pasta.  There are about three dozen appetizers and even more entrees from lobster and shrimp ravioli to mouth-watering Certified Black Angus T-Bone steak.  We enjoyed char grilled rare tuna topped with wasabi and ponzu drizzle, and an over-stuffed lobster roll.  There’s a variety of wine, cocktails and beer (24 on tap) from domestic to imported.  In addition, the fully stocked bar offers a wide array of scotch, vodka, bourbon and tequila.

Photos of sports figures, sports memorabilia and trophies decorate the comfortable rooms.  The Constantatos family,  Mike, Alex and Jerry, pay careful attention to every detail and are always on hand to make sure your dining experience is memorable.  Their Farmingdale location has a private room suitable for all your special occasions or business functions and their team of professionals will create the perfect event.  

There’s always something special happening: Happy Hour, Monday to Friday 3:30-7pm; Seafood and Clambake Nights, Monday and Tuesday, Wine Down Wednesday, Tap and App Thursdays, and Paint Nights when you can release your inner Picasso.  The Main Event is for everyone... bring a date, bring the family or come with the team and experience all the delicious food and fun times The Main Event has to offer.
