The service was absolutely five-star, attentive, friendly, and professional. However, for a restaurant positioned as high-end, the food just didn’t deliver. The restaurant was nearly empty during our visit, and while the presentation was nice, the quality wasn’t there. I’ve honestly had better crab cakes from Harris Teeter’s (Signature crab cakes). The succotash with the crabcakes seemed old and flavorless. For the prices charged, I expected a much higher level of flavor and quality. Overall, great service but very average food for the cost. I won’t be going back again and it’s the second time I’ve eaten there and both times disappointing.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

We had a reservation for 8, we were a few minutes early but sat immediately. Our waiter was so kind, patient (I take a while to decide), and continued to check on us. It was decorated for Christmas which I loved!! But the most important thing was the food...it was amazing 👏. I thoroughly enjoyed those Brussel sprouts, and the shrimp fried rice! Can't wait to go back! It was my birthday 🎂

Not typical Milner’s. Have always loved Milner’s, but last Saturday, 1/17, just didn’t hit the mark as usual. I thought it may have been that we were seated by a large group with three loud toddlers, but when the food arrived I was a bit disappointed. Our party of four was graciously served by Lisa, who is “top notch” and I’m sure would have taken care of my cold sautéed spinach and yucky mashed potatoes plated by an ice cream scoop, had I said something but we were in a rush to get to a concert reservation. I was quite happy that everyone else loved their food and enjoyed the meal. Like I said before, I know that my meal would have been taken care of if I had said something about it. Try them!
