   Under construction.....and a new (post covid?) menu. I miss some of the old items and not convinced the downstairs should have the white linen table look (vs. the old wood bar vibe). Feels like you are trying too hard!

   Our server was outstanding in all areas. I had the lamb loin which was lovely except for a very large portion of unevenly cooked & bland kale. My dinner guest ordered the sole and enjoyed every bite. It was perfect weather for the recently updated patio.

   The Miller remains The Miller with the high volume of noise which suits the younger crowd, but not the seniors and there are many there…Our waitress Maria was good and fun. Of course sold us the bottle of wine and I am sure with directions from Management to do so? Food delicious but wonder about smaller portions, thus kinder prices? David and I could not get our mouths around the volume of the sandwiches which resulted in a lot of fallout and quite the mess on clothes and table. Wonder about half sandwiches with a soup? So little amount of lobster in my Lobster Club thus highly overcharged. All 4 of us commented that the volume of the orders reminded us all of the heaped orders that are prevalent in the USA with horrible waste. Hoping that the Second Harvest is hooked up with the Miller kitchen in gathering all leftovers for the poor and hungry.

   The management staff (GM) couldn't possibly any more arrogant. When I questioned the price for 3 shrimp for $39.00, they told me that this is market price, and I shouldn't have ordered it, if I thought the price was out of line. No apology, just a "we charge what we pay", which, if that were the case, would put them out of business. Also, after paying the ridiculous overpriced bill, the restaurant cancelled my Open Table reservation so I couldn't collect the points from the rez, forcing me to call OT and fix the issue. In summary, this is a 3.5 star restaurant, at best, that thinks they are a 5 star, and can charge whatever prices they want. The food is mediocre and priced at the same level as Morton's, Harbor 60 and STK, which are real 5 star steakhouses.

   The service at the Miller, as always was fabulous. The food was also great. However, it would have been nice to spend Mother's Day afternoon outside on the terrace on such a beautiful day, especially on a terrace a great as the one at The Miller.

   As regular visitors to the Miller Tavern for many years we were very excited to celebrate Mother’s Day 2022. It is important to state firstly that the staff were, and always are, excellent. 5*’s to them. The food however, was dreadful. Mother’s Day Brunch: $55 a head for 3 courses, plus we added a $50 bottle of Prosecco. To start: 2 x crab croquettes 2 x steak tartare The tartare was excellent. Good portion with a huge amount of delicious bread. 5/5 The crab croquettes were terrible. 3 tiny fried ovals with a tiny amount of aioli squeezed on them, rolling around on a tea plate. Fryer burnt and greasy on the outside and cold in the middle, zero flavour or seasoning. We would have sent them back but they were literally a single mouthful each. Happily there was more than enough beef tartar and bread to go around. 0/5 Mains: Breakfast Benny x 1 Wagu Burger x 3 The Benny was OK, but the unpalatable, un-toasted, cold, soggy crumpets it was served on spoiled it. 3/5 The Wagu burger, which we have previously enjoyed many times at MT, was so disappointing. It had been changed up from usual to a brunch version - it was gross. Served with over-cooked fried egg, cheese and bacon, (knowing Wagu beef is both high in fat and very tasty), it was impossible to enjoy the beef with the frying oil that was pooling on the plates - the bacon was soggy and wet. We had them boxed to take home for the dog. 0/5 Desserts: 4 x brownie. Took them home, and the kids tried them. Not very brownie like - heavy and solid. They said the flavour was decent. 2/5 Our total bill came to $392 (including tax, tip, 4 orange juices and a $50 bottle of Prosecco). Much as we love the Miller Tavern, we will not be eating there again in a hurry. The patio is beautiful and a wonderful spot to stay for a drink, (the patio wasn’t open). We have dined here many times over the years, have recommended it regularly. No longer. Hope this was a blip, but it will take a lot for us to eat meal here again.

    Attentive and friendly staff and delicious food. A little pricey given the location and dated ambiance of the lower level. Looking forward to seeing the renovations.

    Great food but servers not wearing masks. Old uncomfortable booths and too noisy for relaxing conversation.

    Miller TavernResponded on May 8, 2022

    Hello Martin, Thank you for sending us your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your food and service. Masks are no longer required indoors, as per the change in the government mandate, but the patio will open next week, if this is more to your liking. We fully renovated the patio last year, and are completely renovating the upstairs dining room currently. This should be ready in June. There are currently plans to renovate downstairs as well. Yours, Andrew Inman, General Manager.

    You need to scratch things off your wine and food menus that aren't available. Not our server's fault but two or three different wines we tried to order and he recommended weren't available when he went to punch them into the system. Also, one of the main entrees weren't available either. Management should let their staff know so they have to tell their customers...oh sorry, we don't have that one either.

    Good food, but grilled shrimp were $6.00 each and overcooked. Oysters were superb. Salad was good. Espresso coffee was excellent . Service was excellent, our server Maria was attentive and friendly and very professional. Restaurant was under renovation but not intrusive, but diner noise level was high. Overall experience was very enjoyable and would definitely return.

    I would say the experience overall was OK. Certainly not poor but also not excellent. Our server was pleasant and professional . The Squash galette was OK but not particularly flavourful. Meh. Waldorf salad OK but not much actual fruit in there which is the essence of Waldorf Salad. Ordered focaccia bread to drink with our wine while waiting for our dinner but it arrived with our food. When it did arrive it was very good. Noise level very loud due to some large groups. Why the music is blaring loud so that people have to shout over it to be heard is beyond me.

    Always a lovely meal at Miller Tavern. Looking forward to upstairs opening up and the patio too. Not a big fan of downstairs but understandable during renos. Love going here with friends as we used to come here "back in the day" when it was the Jolly Miller - great sentimental value to the place for us too. :)

    The upper level was closed due to construction which we were not notified of in advance. There was loud drilling and construction noise as well as construction related chemical smells. Our server was excellent, friendly prompt and polite. Our meals were good however the menu is very limited if you’re seeking healthier (especially gluten free) options.

    At the time of the booking, I checked the menu they had on open table. It had many choices; I was specifically interested in one item as it is my wife’s favourite. When got there, I was so disappointed to see that they only had very few selections and I was told the menus changed long ago! I was almost ready to leave but then we decided to find something and have it. As it seems open table or / and this restaurant is not up to date on their menus, please call the restaurant to make sure they have what you are looking for.

    Hello Kamal, Thank you for your message. There are only two menu options for in house dining available on Open Table. One is our Mother's Day Menu (available May 8th), and the other is a link to our current menu on our website. Both are correct, and I have just checked them. I am not sure where you have seen anything else, but I would be most grateful if you could bring to my attention to its location. Thank you, Andrew Inman, General Manager

    We are repeat customers of this restaurant. But our last visit on 12/4 was disappointing. There was a significant drop in both food quality and service. My wife ordered a Caesar salad to start and it was great as usual. I ordered French onion soup but it was so salty that it was not edible. I sent it back and had crab cake instead. That was so-so. We shared a lobster club as the second course. It took forever to come. When it arrived, the bread on the bottle was really soggy. Probably due to two factors. First, the lettuce and tomato were really wet. Second, it had probably been sitting around for a long time before our server picked it up so the water from the aforementioned wet veggie dripped to the bread on the bottom. We will give this establishment another chance snd hope that it will be better.

    We go to the Miller Tavern a lot. I love the atmosphere on the lower level. It's so cozy. The service was excellent. I was very disappointed in the food this time though. The trout almondine was just swimming in fat and I had ordered that lunch as a healthy choice. The skin was crunchy and delicious - well done on that! My guest had a very soggy (bread) Reuben. The coffee and dessert were excellent. I'll be back but the chef should know about food issues.
