Diner Reviews

"They have a great lobster special on Tuesday. Also, the ambiance is warm."

"We met another couple there on Friday July 4 for dinner. I felt the food prices were alittle high and the food was good, not outstanding for the price. The atmosphere was very nice inside and out. Although a high bill, we would be willing to try it again in the future."

"We went for brunch on Sunday. It wasn't as crowded as usual probably due to the holiday weekend. Brunch at the Mill is usually one of our favorites. This time some of the food was not hot. We told the waitress and she came back and told us some of the sternos went out. This was a bad excuse as the staff was standing behind the serving tables. This was corrected, but too late for us. Hopefully when we go back, this won't happen again."

"The serene view was incredible. The service was impeccable. Dining experiences are enhanced by service. Loved The Mill."

"A few friends and I came here for Sunday brunch recently and overall it was a nice experience. We were seated by the window with a view of the water in the back which was nice. The variety of food available at the buffet was very expansive, I was impressed by all of the choices they had to offer for both breakfast and lunch. They also had so many deserts but we were so stuffed by the time we got to them so we only tried a few. The only minor complaints I had were that we didn't get clean silverware when we got up for new plates and desert, and a couple of the chafing dishes that held the food must have had their flame go out because they were pretty cold. I would come back here though again we did have a good time."

"Went for my mom's 75th birthday. The service and food were exceptional. The waiter was extremely patient and willing to work with my picky eaters. There was a wedding there which gave us limited access to the deck by the pond. Most nights they have entertainment check out the schedule."

"Food fantastic. View unbelievable. Must sit outside. But the waitress was slow and the bus girl was horrible."

"This was our first time to the restaurant for a family of 9 gathering. I can't say enough as to how wonderful this experience was. Everything was great. Our server was so attentive we never had to ask for anything - he just knew!! There was a variety of foods something to please everyone in our group. You have to see it to believe it :)"

"After several dinners, this was my first lunch experience. Everything, the oysters, shrimp soup and crab cake, were all very well prepared. I really appreciate the several choices of wines by the glass; but then, their whole list is quite impressive."
Dined on 6/27/2014
"Food was good not great, the signature lobster pot pie was a disappointment. The waiter was knowledgable."
Dined on 6/25/2014
"Although the food was good and the seating outside was wonderful, our server was very slow and unattentive. It appeared that she was overwhelmed with the number of tables she was responsible for. We'd try it again hopefully getting a better server."

"Everything lobster is the theme for Tuesday nights. At $19.95 for a 1.5 lb. lobster, who can resist? The lobster was sweet and succulent with a good sized tail. The bread was crusty, soft, and warm. Appetizers from the regular menu were amazing: lamb lollipops and a roasted beet salad. For dessert, a dark chocolate crème brulee was decadently good. Ask for a window seat so you can watch the swans and ducks glide around the pond. The service was ok, not as attentive as I would expect from a fine restaurant. We had to remind the waiter that we ordered a second round of drinks. He never stopped by the table to ask if we needed anything more. And the table was not cleared promptly from the first course."

"Celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary at the Inn which was acknowledged in a special way by both management and our server (Laurie), very nice touch. Beautiful setting as our table overlooked the pond. Excellent, timely and attentive service. Generous portions among the appetizer, entree and dessert were served. Presentation of the main course was noteworthy and the entrees (Grana Padano And Herb Crusted Chicken Breast and Pan Seared Atlantic Salmon ) were exceptional. Restaurant is highly recommended. Will definitely revisit with friends."

"We celebrate our wedding anniversary tt the Old Mill every year. We started off with lobster bisque and Caesar salad. The soup was so thick and tasty and the salad crisp and cold. The lobster pot pie and the 32 ounce prime rib special were our meals of choice. The meals did not disappoint as usual. Everything was very delicious and served piping hot. We look forward to dining there again (perhaps even before our anniversary). Thanks again for a great experience!"

"We chose the Mill for our Son's graduation dinner and it turned out to be a great selection. Both the food and the service were outstanding and it really complemented what was a memorable day for our family. Thanks for a great evening."

"The brunch was excellent with so much variety! Loved the glass of champagne. I will definitely recommend The Mill to others and will return."

"Everything was very good - I rated the service as very good rather than outstanding because it was very good but not extraordinary."

"We waited over an hour for appetizers - given the excuse that the kitchen was backed up although place not nearly at capacity. Long wait for entrees - they were freshly cooked and hot."

"We were absolutely delighted with our dinners. The Mill has to be one of the best bargains at the shore. The food is great; the view is marvelous; and the service can't be beat."
Dined on 6/10/2014
"We visited The Mill for the first time on a Tuesday night to celebrate a family promotion. To set the stage we were seated by the mill with a view of the lake and water fountain. To start we ordered the crab cakes, served over lightly toasted corn, that were over the top delicious. The bread was served warm with 3 choices of topping - I highly recommend the herb butter. I had the lobster special served with mashed potatoes and vegetables - everything was cooked to perfection. My husband and the others had the filet mignon and lobster tail. My husbands filet was a bit dry so make sure you order it rare. For dessert we shared a parfait served in a mason jar and ice cream puffs - the perfect ending to a wonderful meal. "

"This was a special occasion for a family reunion and the Mill was a real treat. Friendly and well run and the owner came over to chat with us which I thought was a nice touch. Great venue and good live Music. The food was first class and our server was great and so all in all I would be very happy to recommend the The Mill to all."

"The Mill offered a great selection of food that appealed to all the different tastes of the people in our large group. Everyone - both young & old - left feeling happy and satisfied. We're all looking forward to going back again to try the dishes (especially the desserts) that we didn't have room for this time."

"We've been to the Old Mill several times, and never been disappointed. The food is always delicious and desserts are great! The only complaint is that the bartenders are not knowledgeable. Best thing to do is order wine or something on the rocks. "

"The bar features a great menu as well as delicious and creative drinks. Do yourself a favor and order a specialty cocktail. Food is always very good. I highly suggest ordering the daily fish specials. They are fresh and very flavorful. Fantastic atmosphere as well"

"This our 1st tvisit to the restaurant in over 10 years. The waiter met us in the 1st 30 sec to take drink orders, which is responsive but there was no explanation to the specialty drink menu nor the wine and beer list that was also on the table. Would have appreciated the waiter explain the options and then return. The "round"table was actually a square table that had fold up sides. Very prone to spilling your drink if you placed your drink in front of you. The waiter tried to explain to 1 member if our party by showing a visual of the leaning beer bottle, but I did not hear what he was trying to convey. The waiter asked if we were ready to order and then walked away to another table and then returned The food though was very good."

"Made a reservation for 8 pm and requested a window seat. Upon arrival I reminded the hostess about the window seating and was asked to wait at the bar till a table was ready. After a 40 minute wait we reminded the hostess that we had 8 pm reservations. We were given a table near the door to the kitchen. So much for waiting 40 minutes for them to honor our request!"
