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.

Great food, great service. Pace of dining experience was just right. Have had consistently good experience at this restaurant!

Perfect for a date night! The pear martini was amazing! The ricotta with fig toast appetizer and the gnocchi were delicious. The main course took a little bit of time to come out, but we didn’t mind at all. We topped off the night with cappuccinos and the chocolate torte with homemade salted caramel sauce. Chef’s kiss!! We will definitely be back!

The 5-course bourbon event was outstanding! Delicious food and fantastic service. As expected, we were seated with others sharing the experience. James is an amazing host. This is on our regular restaurant rotation - highly recommended for both the special events like this one and for everyday meals.

A great spot for lunch with delicious salads and sandwiches
