    This was a great night at the Mill for Vday. My wife and I had reservations for 8:00pm. Although we weren't seated right away the wait wasn't no more than 10 minutes as they were very busy with sold out reservations throughout the evening/night. While we waiting they came around with complimentary champagne for everyone, it was great. Food and menu were top tier and we enjoyed ourselves. I have known this restaurant for years since I was a child, so I have never been disappointed.

    The food was amazing. The waiter was very nice and kept checking on us. Just looking around you can see everyone enjoying themselves and all the servers doing there job to make everyone have an amazing time. I shared a memorial moment and the whole staff knew about it and i thank them all. I highly recommend it. Even another costumer said it is the best restaurant hidden in Ct.

    Great food with wonderful service! Our waiter - Leighton - was very attentive, but not over-present. He timed inquiries perfectly between courses and conversation!

    We had a wonderful pre-theater meal at Trumbull Kitchen. Megan was the hostess when we arrived and was terrifically accommodating on our request for a table in a specific location. The service was excellent, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our dinners. Everything tasted as beautifully as it looked. It's a wonderful place to go for a drink or dinner before the theater. My only less-than-enthusiastic comment was that the restaurant was very loud made worse by music playing way too loudly in my opinion. It makes it a challenge to have good conversation over dinner.
