Plates are small...we had 4 guests and ordered 5 tapas...not enough! And they were expensive. Drinks were iced/watered down. Nice ambiance, but that was it. Not going back
Great service if a little bit overbearing. Due to Covid the restaurants are nearly empty. So our waiter was kinda hovering over us. The food was great though.
Great selections and al food was cooked to perfection
The food was fantastic as well as the service. I would definitely recommend.
What an amazing meal and experience. The outside does not do the inside and the food justice. It is our new go to place!
Excellent cocktails. Very nice comfortable patio. Close parking. Walking distance to the shoreline.
Not a good experience, my best friend and I went for dinner on a Friday night. 1- There was no one really there, for a Friday night that was odd to me. 2-the shrimp cocktail tasted off, can’t explain but it did. 3- I ordered the steak and frites and the steak wasn’t seasoned much, My best friend ordered a Caesar salad with shrimp in it and ask for the dressing on the side and the doused her salad and dressing.
Pro’s- great drinks and service but won’t be back.
1st time there. Sat outside side. Food and staff were fantastic. Took a look inside. Dining and bar area looked warm and inviting. Going back soon.
Great service! Great food!
I love this place. I’m glad that I was still able to enjoy a meal outdoors as they have large heating lamps outside. Food and drinks are great and our server did a fine job making sure that we were comfortable and well taken care of.
This was only my second time dining there, but what a home run! I had some of the best oysters on the half shell in my life! The beet mignotte was awesome. That was followed by sublime grilled scallops with an asparagus risotto. I concluded with the churros. Over the top deliciousness. This is definitely not an inexpensive restaurant, but for my dollar, totally worth it and I look forward to returning!
Great food. Great atmosphere. Clean experience.
We will be back!
Beautiful setting near the water in Milford, amazing mediteranean food.
Food was excellent
Food was terrible not cooked well and flavor was awful
We had a 7:30 reservation and when we got there they told us “we don’t have a table for you.” We then had to wait a half hour before they sat us.
The food wasn’t fresh and the taste suffered behind it, but the service was okay.
Restaurant was beautiful. We had Heather and she was amazing! Thank you Village Bistro for an amazing experience!
We had amazing meals! Such a fun place in a great location Service was outstanding!
Excellent food, ambiance, & service! It's why we keep coming back at least 1-2 times a month! Highly recommended!
Our service was slow. Food was great. Bug repellant needed for outdoor diners

Excellent evening
Service was terrible
I keep going back and giving them one more chance, but nothing is improving. Service is slow to say the least. We ordered a cheese board and guacamole before we ordered dinner so we could sit and enjoy. The $17 cheese board had no meat, one slice of bread sliced and toasted, a few grapes, a few walnuts, a few olives and about -0 slices of cheese. All tasted great but not sure it warranted a $17 price tag. They never brought out the guacamole and our server never came back. On top of that she put in the dinner orders before we had a chance to “enjoy” our half appetizer. Drinks weren’t refilled either. I had ordered the beet salad with grilled shrimp. No shrimp. It was a giant disappointment yet again. I want to love it and love some of the dishes but the price doesn’t match the service or portions.
Great outdoor patio dining. Quaint place. Nice menu with lots of options. Friendly good service. Food was very good. Very relaxing and nice atmosphere.
Enjoyed the outside patio and felt the spacing was good. Very nice setting. Tequila martinis very yummy with Spicy Mezcal having a little kick to it. Ordered primarily tapas and starters, tuna tartare, duck leg confit nicely prepared and tender, portobello mushrooms all quite good. Grilled Octopus pretty good but have had better. All and all, a score of 5 in many of the scoring categories. Just the 4 out of 5 due the starters described above. Will visit again..
Food was excellent. So was the service. Sitting outside is never as comfortable as inside but it was still the most pleasant outside seating experience we've had since COVID started.
Village Bistro is located a few blocks from the beach in the Woodmont section of Milford easily accessible from the interstate. It has a lovely stone patio in front with spacious seating Across the entire front of the restaurant. Service is warm and friendly. The menu has many choices including tapas, small plates and appetizers along with regular entree choices. Wines by the glass are well-priced with generous pours.
The staff was friendly, the restaurant was lovely and the food and menu were great!
Outstanding service, well spaced out seating outside with one way system implemented to assist distancing
Convenient parking, easy access for covid distancing. Friendly hostess, staff and professional maître d! Food and drink always 100%. Love the atmosphere and location!
Great Service, nice outdoor dining, interesting and creative menu.
Tried the Marguarita Pizza, unlike any we've had before, sorry to say it was awful. We've eaten there before and it wasn't bad, but wouldn't consider it gourmet by any means. To bad, the outside patio is really nice. I would give it another try when they have entertainment again.
First time eating here & absolutely loved the food & the service was amazing
Always a great meal and fabulous atmosphere. Nice job being COVID friendly. Thank you!
The food was amazing! Our waiter was outstanding. He was courteous and attentive, without feeling like he was hovering.
Found this place randomly as Milford is a regular weekend getaway during the summer. The food was outstanding! I had the best seafood paella of my life and my wife had the goat cheese salad with shrimp that she loved. The French Onion soup had a very flavorful traditional sherry broth and guyere. Our server, named Al, was very friendly and prompt. We will definitely be back.
Perfect spot for dinner.
We have NEVER left a bad review for a restaurant but we felt compelled to share our experience. We were here for 1.5 and in that time we were served one drink each and one of our lunches. The waitress came by twice, once to take our order and once to serve us our drinks. A busser came out with one of our lunches and we asked for another round of drinks. 30 minutes later- nothing so we got up and asked to speak to the manager who was actually our waitress. We were floored that a manager would provide service like this. We asked for the bill so we could pay for what we were served, we waited another 5 minutes and simply left cash as our patience had grown very thin by then. The "ambiance," was less than desirable with 20 something year olds yelling, taking shots and making crude remarks which no one stopped. We were hoping for a relaxing Sunday brunch and we were highly disappointed.
