Lovely place and usualy equal service and overall experience. However, we had to wait for wine sommelier so long we gave up and got just glasses (which were comped- thank you, forgivable.) What was not forgivable was no recognition of our guests birthday after mentioning we were celebrating both when the reservation was made and when we sat down. We ordered 3 desserts and no candle?!

Pretty space. Good menu. Two issues: 1) we couldn’t hear each other, so had to shout. Very uncomfortable. 2) Bronzino cost $46. It had been sliced in half (most likely to filet); half was served as one portion. Not good value. Pasta was delicious.

Milling Room is a great spot for a date night meal. The ambiance and styling aim to impress which it did. The food is above average without going over the top in either presentation or price. Just watch out for the drink prices. The waiter up charged by 50% for a Hendrix martini, without informing, then tried to pass it off that I should have known the menu price was well liquor. Despite the blatant attempt at a rip off, I will be back
