Very very limited menu which I know they are closing soon but still! Also the pizza was particularly bad- the sauce tasted like Hunt’s tomato sauce- and the crust wasn’t crispy- it was just bad all the way around!

Bad experience overall. It was our wedding anniversary. No mention was made despite our daughter calling ahead to not only let the restaurant know but she wanted to buy us two glasses of champagne. We had no idea until she texted to ask if we received the glasses. The manager and hostess whom she spoke with (and gave her credit card number) were both completely oblivious to the request. Additionally, the service was very poor. Unattentive. Ignored our initial request to bring the two starters we ordered as two separate courses rather than together. She needed approval for everything including a vegetable substitution request. Overall the food was OK. Nice atmosphere, except for whatever reason the deoderizers used in the rest rooms could be smelled in the restaurant. This was the third time we had eaten at The Milling Room. Needless to say we will not be back again.

It was Mother’s Day so there was a prix fix menu of $80…fine we were hungry so we stayed. We had pea soup which consisted of twelve spoons of bland soup no bread as it was not on the menu.I had steak and broccolini..steak fine broccolini cooked tree bark. I asked for potatoes or French fries ..sorry not on the menu..dessert peach pie almost passable except for the undercooked dough….$200 later we left feeling totally ripped off for mediocre slop. Even the utensils were cheap ..an all round bad experience….never again
