The choices for appetizers and main courses was good. We enjoyed them. I think their downfall is desserts. They are not very exciting or tasty. Service was wonderful and ambiance comfortable. Was happy not to rushed. All in all a wonderful time

I needed a place for brunch that would be quiet, nice ambiance, convenient location, that we could sit a while and where the food was good. This hit the mark on all fronts! Plus it wasn’t exorbitantly expensive. Great choice for date, old friends, meet the parents, party or just every day.

We reserved for an early dinner after a visit at the Museum of Natural History located across the street. A great experience in a grand dining room with a flawless service and fine food.

We made an early reservation and lingered at the bar for a cocktail. The dining room is well separated from the bar area and it’s bright and inviting. The $60 menu is a true find and the wine selection that accompanies is rather large. The waitress made a few recommendations and we enjoyed every bite.

After all these years, The Milling Room keeps going strong. Always packed and with an enthusiastic staff, seamlessly circling tables placed under a huge skylight. The food is always prepared with care and the menu is ample.

We tried the pre-fix menu. The burrata was very silky and the meatballs were tender and flavorful. Desserts were very straightforward, and we opted for a refreshing sorbet. The rain outside the vaulted glass ceiling was a perfect companion to a magical room. Service could not have been better

We went back to The Milling Room after a few months, and the restaurant is still our favorite choice in the neighborhood.

Great value for the $60 menu. Everything was delicious. Tables are really well spaced, and it’s easy to carry a conversation. Very attentive service.
