Trattoria Il Mulino is a great spot all around. The food is consistently delicious, with fresh ingredients and rich flavors that really stand out. Whether you're in the mood for pasta, seafood, or something off the specials menu, you can’t go wrong. The atmosphere is warm and inviting—comfortable enough for a casual dinner but nice enough for a special occasion. It’s lively without being too loud. The staff is fantastic. They’re friendly, attentive, and make you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. It’s clear they care about providing a great experience. Overall, this place delivers on all fronts—great food, great service, and a great vibe. Highly recommend.

First time here. We didn't know what to expect. The food was good very but not great. The service couldn't have been better. Good wine list and a good bar. Cocktails were very good.

The ambiance was upscale and entertaining, but relaxing. The service was exceptional throughout the evening, and the meal was exquisite. The shrimp I ordered were cooked perfectly and tasted delicious, and the pasta was fresh and buttery. A very enjoyable and memorable experience.
