We had such a fun evening at Milly’s! The wines we tried were delicious (my friend and I shared three of the “wine fights” and had fun guessing which of each was the expensive one) and we deeply enjoyed the food as well. Our servers were friendly and attentive and the ambience of the place was swanky and cool - definitely will be coming back to Milly’s!

This was our first time at this restaurant, which was suggested by our adult son to celebrate his birthday. It was outstanding! The food was delicious, and the service was fantastic. Our server make excellent alternative suggestions to help with a food sensitivity. It was not inexpensive - we did the course menu experience & added 2 bottles of flavored sake - but worth it for the celebratory experience. I would definitely recommend and would be happy to stop in & sit at the bar and enjoy just the Beef Sukiyaki Bibimbap! It was a favorite of everyone at the table.
