I celebrated my 41st Birthday as I have done for the past 8 years or so (either or my other favorite in the City). I always have the absolute best experience! Our server, Chris, was amazing! He was very attentive and accommodating! Chris made my birthday extra special! I'll always come back to this place. I love it!

Still the best vegetarian restaurant in the East Bay! Wonderful setting, service was very curteous and attentive. Every dish, from the appy to our 2 mains, to desert, and the glasses of wine were outstandingly delicious. It's quite pricey, but not outrageously pricey, so still affordable once or twice a year.

Everything was amazing. The levels of flavor, nothing over salted. The mocktails and lemonades were amazing. Great staff, friendly, attentive. Fast service and food came out in each course which was timed perfectly.

Absolutely delicious meal! Only thing I would change is the ambience. When it’s cold outside, the doors should be closed when it’s cold outside.

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
