With its unique setting perched atop a waterfall in Simsbury, Connecticut, Millwright’s invites guests to dine in the 17th century mill with acclaimed, James Beard nominated Chef Tyler Anderson and his team. Featuring daily-chosen farm ingredients, the freshest and most select product, proprietary cocktails, and exciting wine menu, Millwright’s offers a new experience to the Farmington Valley farm-to-table dining scene. The culinary team understands the impact of the highest-quality fresh ingredients. Millwright’s kitchen thrives on local ingredients – grown, raised, produced, foraged and prepared – whenever possible. They also take the farm-to-table concept one step further. Millwright’s has partnered with a farm that will grow most of its organic produce. The “Inspired New England” cuisine at Millwright’s pays homage to the land, to the flavor-rich quality of local, fresh ingredients and to the time-honored cooking techniques that enhance the natural goodness of those ingredients.

    I invited my daughter and grandson to enjoy a special dinner with me. Millwright‘S did not disappoint, our waitstaff was spot on and described each dish we received and my picky eater Connor tried everything and thoroughly enjoyed the tapioca themed clam chowder! It was wonderful to see him get a complete experience with your restaurant. My compliments to each member that we encountered on our visit to Millwright‘S !! We shall return soon !

    My sons and their partners and I decided to have Thanksgiving dinner at Millwright and it was overall a very good experience. We had a 5:30 reservation though we were not seated til 6 (which was a bit ironic since they had called me the day before to indicate that we had to be there on time and they would only hold the table for 10 minutes), however, they made up for it by offering a half off bottle of wine, which was quite generous. The prix fixe dinner was excellent, being Thanksgiving, most of us opted for the turkey, which was great, especially the confit. I loved the smoked salmon mousse, it was a nice creative touch. All else got the more conventional first courses, as is their wont, and they enjoyed them. The sides were delicious, the service impeccable and the atmosphere lovely. Rather expensive for a turkey dinner, but it is a vibe. So I would do it again, I am a semi-regular visitor to the Tavern, my favorite part of the restaurant.

    This was our third Thanksgiving at Millwrights and we felt like the quality decreased and the level of service dropped quite a bit. Our server was very friendly, but he must have had too many tables to manage at once. Some tables were provided bread and butter, but it was never offered to us. It took 10 minutes for my husband to receive the beer he ordered. We enjoyed our meal, but we’ll try another restaurant next year.

    went to Millwright for Thanksgiving. had a reservation but still had to wait 15 mins to be seated. our server Scott was outstanding. Friendly, personable, attentive and timely. we were seated in the covered bridge seating area, which had great views and was decorated festively but was a bit chilly which definitely affected the comfort level while dining. although the chairs themselves were extremely comfortable. for Thanksgiving it was a prix fixe menu (standard for most restaurants). the quality, flavor and portions of the food were excellent, but the biggest overall issue and the one that would keep me from giving a 5 or even 4 star rating, was that the food was served lukewarm to warm at best. combined with the fact that the dining area was already a bit cold made one feel as if they had to rush eating their food while it was still a bit warm. over all though, a good experience.
