   We'd been wanting to return to for some time. One word: FANTASTIC! Millennium is a VERY hot spot and it can be challenging to get a reservation on a day and time that suits you if you don't plan far enough ahead of time. PLAN EARLY if you can. I had a day/time in mind but had to adjust a bit, but got a spot at a "High Top" (tall table with chairs). When we arrived, the Maître d' showed us where we were "scheduled" to sit. It was close to the front door on a breezy winter night. IF we were at the other end of this longish table, it might have been okay (not perfect). We asked the Maître d' IF there were any options. He reviewed the options and said he could place us in the patio or at the bar. We went to the patio, which is more or less sheltered, but not fully enclosed. There was ample heating (as far as I was concerned) but it didn't suit my wife. We went back to the Maître d' station and he reviewed the situation anew. A colleague reviewed options with him, and Voila.....we were fortunate to get a very nice table for two! Thank you Millennium and staff for taking the time to accommodate us! Stars for service: 5 Attentive but not intrusive - timing was perfect throughout Stars for Food: 5 Creative, sumptuous and plentiful Stars for Ambiance: 5 Comfortable, unpretentious, interesting I hope this review helps you decide if Millennium is a place you want to experience. - Graystroke

   I went to Millennium with 2 friends to celebrate my birthday. It had been many years since I last ate there and my memory was that the food was less than average. I decided to give it another chance after I read that the restaurant had Michelin recognition. I'm so pleased that I did. The food was excellent and very interesting. We shared 3 appetizers and 1 main dish along with 1 dessert and a glass of wine. The wait staff was attentive and pleasant. The ambience was warm but the noise level was rather loud for 3 "older" women who wanted to talk to each other rather than scream at each other. Really that was my only complaint. I would definitely go back again.

   We love Millenium for many years. It was my wife's milestone birthday and we wanted to celebrate with the Saturday pre-fixe menu. While the food was awesome and servers were fantastic, I'm a little disappointed that they didn't do ANYTHING special for the birthday girl! Hope they can make sure to at least put a candle on the dessert!

   Millennium never fails to disappoint! Thoughtful and delicious cocktails, exquisite dishes with unique ingredients that are down-to-earth and the staff is outstanding. Been dining with Millennium since their SF days in 2000 and still find them to be exceptional choice whether it’s a special occasion or just snacks at the bar.

   The service was amazing. I completely forgot about my friend’s nut allergy when I booked a vegan restaurant for dinner, but the waiter and chef made all of the accommodations. We shared several plates, and each had such a unique combination of flavors. Would absolutely go back if I lived in the area!

    We were so excited for our dinner here, as it was recommended by multiple vegan/vegetarian friends. The ambiance was lovely, but the food was so so. A bit complicated with so many ingredients that it lacked focus. There was no real favorites in the favor profile. The Mexican chocolate torte was phenomenal tho!
