Today the food was, as always, delicious. I had the frisée salad and a side of fries. My friend had mussels with frites. But I want to write about the great staff. EVERY person I encountered - from the maitres’d to our waiter to the support staff - was bright and cheerful and extraordinarily helpful. How can you not love a neighborhood restaurant like Cafe Luxembourg?

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

This spot was the perfect tea room experience. The size of the tea room allows for a more intimate experience. Also, it feels like a real tea room, rather than a hotel restaurant with tea. The food was amazing and the individuals teas for each person were just great. Would 10/10 recommend for a special experience.
