We visited the Pepper Mill for our anniversary last evening. There is nothing to fault. Staff are attentive. The atmosphere is delightfully adulty. We went at 5pm and the place was filled as we left but we wouldn’t have known. All very refined! The food is so good! Just the right amounts and cooked beautifully. Price wise yes it’s on the top side but we aren’t talking your standard faire. Quality over quantity for us. Thank you Pepper Mill!
