   Was disappointed by the menu change for lunch. Portions felt very small for the price and fish, lamb and steak were all over cooked.

   The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. The restaurant had a nice ambience, and the food was amazing and beautiful presentation. Loved everything we had. Maybe a little pricey, but I guess what's expected from a fine dining restaurant

   We found a hidden gem of a restaurant, we will definently be back. It was our anniversary and we received a table overlooking the millpond dam, very romantic & easy drive home.

   Excellent food, as always. Very good service. The restaurant hasn’t changed in years, which is a good thing. Price is what it is. It doesn’t change either, which is fine.

   Server was brilliant, dinner was fine although a bit pricy for what it was. Breakfast was terrible, cane with the room rate booked ($25), but juuce and toast was extra. Food at breakfast was bland, cold and not appetizing at all. We left most of it and took the b-fast off the room package for our 2nd morning.

   Our server Lisa was INCREDIBLE! The appetizer was not good, and the main was plain and nothing special. The dessert was unbelievably delicious. Our server and the dessert was the best part.

    Server made us very uncomfortable. Referred to my dining companion (my daughter) as my "sister". An old, not-funny joke. Was over-familiar - asking us too many personal questions. Tried to up-sell on our order. Wanted to shake hands at the end of our meal! Who does this? Especially post-Covid. Meal was good, but over-priced.

    Service was good and portions very generous but both the ahi tuna and foie Gras has zero flavour. Felt like a their back 40 years but not in a good way. Decor is VERY dated.

    The food quality was exceptional. The chef presented the foods in interesting array. Seasonal ingredients were constructed and deconstructed in interesting presentations with attention to taste. The portions were perfect. The Mushroom Croute is a must have appetizer. The use of Chevril makes the dish stand out and covering it with puff pastry adds to the decadence. I highly recommend this.

    Very good service and the overall ambiance is fantastic. We booked ahead to get a table overlooking the falls. My wife got a truffle pasta dish which really was a 10. However I got a beef tenderloin for $58 that was just meh…. Coupled with the fact that I asked for medium fully expecting it would be slightly under that, and instead it was overcooked and closer to the well done end. Unfortunately on a cut like this it robbed the meat of most of its flavor. The accompanying au jus that went with it was also lacking in taste and the small potatoes and rutabaga were also very bland. However the waiter was very accommodating and was also disappointed for us and included our post dinner hot drinks and crème brûlée for no charge. Crème brûlée was one of the best I’ve had and it’s pretty much a staple for my wife and I whenever we eat out. So overall, I would suggest this restaurant to try if you’re in the area, but hopefully if you are considering the beef tenderloin they improve on the dish on every level. The resort and spa with the hot springs and the 2 person hot tub on our back patio also made the stay truly one to remember.

    Sangria was watered down. Tasted of club soda had to ask for additional cranberry juice to add bit of taste.. Latte was 1/2 full I. A small cup. It looked and tasted like dirty water. Asked server and she said it’s from a machine. For a high end restaurant to have a machine latte was disappointing additionally the machine was not working properly. Had to ask server for extra milk so it was drinkable. Overall I expected better quality of food especially for the prices being charged.

    My husband and I used to dinne at Millcroft a few times a year for special occasions. Lately, the service and food quality are not at the same high standards as they practiced before. The prices are ridiculously high compared to the quality and quantity of food served these days. Starting with the hostess who had offered us a table with no wiew, in the middle of the way in an empty restaurant claiming that all other tables are reserved. We made this reservation weeks prior but were treated like walkins , it made us feel that some customers are more important than others and for a returning customer it felt quite insulting, given that the restaurant remained not even 50% occupied by the time we finished dinner. The food in general is OK , some appetizers come in large portions, especially the greens salat, two can comfortably share. For mains we had steaks that came in very, very small portion, overcooked and no taste, that were accompanied by some wired potatoes selection and consume (soupe like souce) that did not enhanced its flavor but actually made the potatoes soggy. For a $58 steak, we expected perfection! This was not nearly satisfying. Perhaps other dishes may be more appealing, but we recommend staying away of this one foresure. All in all, this is just an ok restaurant located in the countryside where one can have a quiet dinner but their prices are no longer justified relative to what is offered and the service is lacking charm and skill, sad to see that it lost its edge over the time!

    The food and service is great. The state of the accomodations and condition of the hotel is horrendous. It is essentially a tear down. No significant upgrades have been done to this place since probably the 90's (maybe longer) and it shows. I felt like I was staying in a haunted house when I stayed in Room 103 of the Crofts. I would not return to this place unless there is a major renovation.
