About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines
Charming

Taverns have had a constant important presence in American life since the late 1600's. Many of them, which were attached to inns, were opened as resting places for travelers needing a place to stop, relax and fortify themselves. Of course the local residents frequented the taverns too, purchasing drinks and meals as well as participating in lively conversations. Taverns were the focal point for neighbors to come together, exchange news, talk of politics, and share in the general feeling of conviviality. Taverns were firmly established as gathering places for the light hearted socializing, serious talk, and of course, a
hearty meal accompanied by a tasty libation or two.
In this American tradition, we at Mill’s Tavern welcome you with genuine enthusiasm. Our staff is warm, friendly, caring, and knowledgeable. So please come, relax, visit with friends and family. You will leave refreshed and nourished, body and soul.

I ordered the pork tenderloin. It was the so dry and flavorless. The potatoes and peppers that came with it were good but that was the worst pork I ever had.

This was our first time at Mill's Tavern. I decided to try it after having a great lunch at their sister restaurant, recently. We were a little early for our reservation, and we were seated in a terrible table in the corner inches from the bar that was cramped and cold. We asked to be moved which they accommodated. The menu is an upscale and little on the pricy side with a French flair. The food overall was good and presentation is solid. Unfortunately, my duck three ways appetizer was under seasoned the mushrooms were almost tasteless which was a bit disappointing since it was a special that evening. The flatbread appetizer was solid although we were expecting parsnip boursin and duck sausage but could not locate any boursin or duck on the flatbread. Entrees were: the halibut special which was served over green lentils with rainbow swiss chard and hazelnut crumble. The cook on the fish was good but the lentils were over seasoned and very salty. We also ordered the ordered the cider glazed swordfish which was completely overcooked but the root veggies and shaved brussels sprouts sides were great. The chipotle BBQ chicken was excellent as was the accompanying succotash. We also ordered a side of crispy brussels sprouts which was excellent. Our server was great but the service was very slow for a Thursday night. The meal took two hours for a table of four. Overall the meal was good and I would try it again.

It was a great date night, wish we sat at another table in an empty Resturant. If we were seated there because of the server, it was worth it, she was great.

This restaurant is absolutely incredible. The service and food are impeccable. Our steak was cooked perfectly (rare). Everything was excellently seasoned. The sides are phenomenal and are definitely for sharing. The small mashed potatoes is more than enough for 2 people. The ambience is somehow cozy yet elegant, and a great location for a date, a family get together, friends having dinner- whatever!
