    Pretty space. Good menu. Two issues: 1) we couldn’t hear each other, so had to shout. Very uncomfortable. 2) Bronzino cost $46. It had been sliced in half (most likely to filet); half was served as one portion. Not good value. Pasta was delicious.

    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

    Brunch for six, reservation was ready for us, server was attentive, food was served timely. Ambience amazing, a beautiful space. Only a little loud, not bad. Food was delicious, nothing off the beaten track but as expected. Very nice spot for brunch as well as our usual dinner there.
