Descriptiontext

Kix on Main is a privately held, single-location full-service restaurant and bar founded in 2021 by co-owners Kimberly Vakiener (Ki) and Alexander Bacon (X) at 170 S. Main Street in downtown Canandaigua, New York, in the former Gleason's Food and Drinks space. The establishment offers American-style creative cuisine with monthly rotating specials, appetizers, salads, sandwiches, entrees (including premium items such as Beef Wellington at $44, Osso Buco, and Braised Short Ribs), shareable sides, and desserts, complemented by a wine list and a full bar featuring cocktails such as the Kix-A-Rita; menu pricing spans $9-$20 for starters, $15-$17 for salads, $19-$24 for sandwiches, $27-$44 for entrees, and $8.50-$22 per glass of wine. Executive Chef Will Andrew leads the kitchen and is positioned as the creative engine behind the rotating specials program.

The business operates a dine-in service Tuesday through Saturday from 4pm to 9pm with the bar open until approximately 11pm, supported by online pickup ordering through the Heartland POS system, off-premise delivery through a DoorDash partnership, and reservations managed via Resy. The 7-employee operation extends into a Sunday-only seasonal event format, Clams N' Jams, a summer concert series pairing live local bands with a $20-per-person event buffet and $10 littleneck steamed clams. Revenue is generated through one-time dine-in purchases, beverage sales, transaction-fee delivery, and event buffet admissions, with marketing concentrated on Instagram, the company's own website, and the Clams N' Jams community-event series. The company is bootstrapped and founder-owned with no disclosed institutional investors, parent entity, or additional locations.
