Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Milford

We love this place in the summer. The windows and doors are always open, eliminating the intense noise level you fave in the old months with all that shut. The service was good! The food was mediocre. I had a salad with salmon, and my husband had a steak salad. Portions were just enough. My salad, while good, was not a $21 salad. It was lettuce, with dried cranberries and some gorgonzola cheese. There was supposed to be apples on it, but I didn't see any, then an overcooked piece of salmon on top. That's it. Drinks are another topic entirely. I ordered a "holiday special" margarita. The first drink was alcohol laden. Almost too much so. The 2nd tasted entirely different and was heavy on the lime juice. Neither was good, but at $12, I didn't expect a lot. Bottom line - great for a quick bite, a large party, or a young crowd. If you are looking for a date night restaurant and are over the age of 45, skip it and try it for lunch in the summer months.

Founders House has been our Thanksgiving dinner destination for the last three years. We always look forward to the experience. The menu consists of your choice of traditional turkey dinner, prime rib, or baked stuffed shrimp. The turkey is moist and delicious, the prime rib cooked perfectly and the shrimp generously stuffed with tasty stuffing. All are served with mashed potatoes potatoes (best I’ve ever had) and perfectly sautéed whole green beans. The specialty cocktails are amazing and service is impeccable. Many thanks to Founders House for making our Thanksgiving meal so special.

We ordered the mussels and asked for the garlic toasts on a side plate AND they didn't do this, they placed the garlic toasts right on top of the mussels. I have to be gluten free and we just don't understand why people do not read the instructions. Our waitress stated that she did put in this request.

Food was excellent and ambiance was very nice even though it was a rainy day. Our server was very good.

I had the scrambled eggs with lobster, excellent! Our server was prompt, personable, professional and just excellent! Sat in a glassed in section in the back of the restaurant which was great. Highly recomment!
