    Meatball and calamari appetizers were delicious! Our mains were chicken parmigiana and sautéed chicken. Both were excellent! Portions were generous!
    Mill Creek TavernResponded on April 11, 2025
    Thanks so much for the great review! We're glad you loved the meatballs and calamari — two of our favorites! And it’s great to hear the chicken parm and sautéed chicken hit the mark too. We appreciate you dining with us and hope to see you again soon!

    As usual we had a very nice dinner last night. The bar and main dining room were very noisy when we arrived. We were seated in the other dining room which was quiet and relaxing. I would give it a try if you’ve never been there.

    Thank you for joining us again and for the thoughtful review! We're glad we could seat you somewhere quiet so you could enjoy a relaxing dinner. We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you back again soon!

    We go to Mill Creek Tavern Frequently. People there very friendly (Vanessa, Cindy, Gene, Steph, Lousia, Sue, etc). Food is good and reasonably priced. I guess we know what to order and feel comfortable eating here. Doesn't break the budged and well worth the visit. Accommodating even with a 1-year-old in tow.
