Elora Mill Restaurant

Beautiful restaurant with a beautiful view of the river. Even if you don’t sit in the Solarium room (the room with the river view), the secondary lounge dining room is beautiful with wood beamed ceilings and a fire place.
I had read a lot of bad reviews about the food being very over priced for the quantity of food and the value.
So, 1st; we ordered the PEI Oysters for our appetizer. You got 6 for $24. That is definitely not a good value because the oysters were nothing special - not giant oysters and you can get good oysters at a lot of restaurants for a better value. In addition it of course is not a special appetizer made in house.
2nd: we both ordered the duck entree, $39 each. Was cooked medium rare and you got two large pieces, with a couple small potatoes on the side with a beautiful lettuce/green pure sauce that tasted amazing, really finished off the dish.
Overall we had a good experience, we would go back.

Excellent service, food and ambiance! We reserved a table just before the 3rd lockdown, and so glad we did! We were able to take our time and relax. Loved it.

Love the new menu. Dined several times in the past and one of best menus. Few more desert options would be nice.

A wonderful experience, looking forward to coming back

Nice Sunday evening experience. The food was very good, the view is magnificent, and the staff attentive. Overall - worth to visit.

Delicious. Beautiful atmosphere. Chef made me something vegan. Delicious.

Food was great. As was the wine. Service from Chris was as good as it gets. Great dining experience all around.

Great place. Always great to come back!! Food is delicious abs service is awesome.

Gorgeous view, super tasty food, excellent service, the only one thing I would hope to have is clean window so it doesn’t affect the view

The gnocchi was amazing! Every meal I’ve had there has been perfection.

Great atmosphere, food and environment for special occasions

Awesome place for a date, really gorgeous seating area and good service :) quiet and easy for chatting as well :)

Very good flavored meal. Fun and courteous server.

Everything was great! Will be back again! The grass fed beef dish was very dry but everything else was great!

The experience here was absolutely amazing. Our family of three enjoyed lunch in the dome outdoors. Amazing service of staff and great overall experience. All the safety measures were followed. We will be coming back!

Excellent food with an outstanding view and ambience.

We had a great lunch experience, fresh tasty food, courteous service, and spectacular views topped off the experience. We will be back.

I appreciate the attention to detail in all aspects of the dining experience. The service caters to your every need, the food is creatively prepared and extremely well executed and the atmosphere is ...what can I say,...special. We dined in one of the outdoor globes and it felt like we were out there with nature. Wonderful!

Specific place, nice ambient we enjoyed, we will coming back
Thanks

As ever the Mill provides a spectacular setting, with excellent service and ambience.
Prices are exorbitant, but with the sparsely occupied dining room, what could I expect?

This was the first time my son and I visited your Mill's restaurant, and we were extremely impressed with everything from the view from our table (magnificent) the service was friendly and personable, and our food was outstanding. It was an experience I will always remember and will tell our friends all about.
Your staff really made our Christmas a special day for us, and I would like to wish everyone there a happy and safe New Year.
Sincerely
Carol Kelly

Great food, ambiance and decor with a spectacular view of the Elora Gorge

We ate outside in a heated plastic dome overlooking the gorge. We dined to the sound of rushing water. It was absolutely wonderful. The dome was warm and cozy fitted with comfortable chairs and a rug placed on a wooden platform. The service as always was attentive and accommodating. It was a wonderful highlight of our COVID Xmas week.

Lovely! Looking forward to our next lunch! Crab salad was wonderful!

We were able to enjoy the snow globe igloo dining experience which was an unexpected pleasure. Superb service, great food as always with the added benefit of the outside igloo which took our luncheon a step above. Kudos to the pivot you’ve made during this tough period.

We had so much fun in the Dome Dining ... cozy, warm and listening to our own tunes with the Bluetooth speaker! Fun experience!

Simply incredible experience great food, service and location

We enjoyed the Mills food was amazing we had Kayla and she was a amazing, friendly kind person worked very hard 5* all the way

Due to this tragic pandemic only the window side tables were being used and they were well spaced. This gave us an intimate dining experience. The menu was limited and for a lunch meal it was expensive. The food was good, portions relatively small and not aligned with prices from a value perspective. We suppose the premium was justified by the terrific view of the gorge. Service was excellent.

Exceeded our expectations as the view was outstanding and the service was excellent!

Kevin was great in explaining the dishes and suggesting what to go for. The whole experience was amazing but his demeanor and special takes on the food just made it extra special.

Amazing food. Amazing service. Amazing location. Would insist that people try!

Its a unique property and would love to go there on special occasions. Still to experience the spa and hotel stay.

Great view and Service. Very limited menu. Put in more

We felt very safely distanced from other diners with the COVID-19 precautions. The menu offered good choices and when the wine we selected was not available the sommelier was quick to offer an alternative. Our only issue with the service was the waitress didn't write things down and had to recheck part of our order and forgot something we ordered to take home. Overall still a great experience and we'd definitely go back.

The floor staff was driven to move at a speed of service - fast- that was unpleasant. The floor manager removed my plate before my friend was finished eating. Unacceptable for service at this type of establishment.

Amazing experience, will definitely return again!

We found the menu a bit odd, we are fairly adventurous eaters. Little appealed
We were not informed of the specials. Wine list ok, bread really good

despite corona protocol - it was an enjoyable lunch and we even walked away with a most special and appreciated "doggy bag".......

Crab salad and cauliflower soup were good. Mains, bass was tasteless. Ben ballontine was not very good. Dishes were very expensive $36 mains.
