"The Milling Room is good, the decor is interesting enough, the staff attentive and the food well presented and cooked. It's sort of a "hearty meal" in that there's plenty on your plate and lots of meat. It's actually a very good restaurant and if you are nearby it's a worthwhile choice... In general the meat seemed more compelling than the salmon which is what I had.. In general though it wasn't very differentiated or creative..."

"From what I understand, they’re going to start a remodel on the interior of this restaurant and in the meantime, they have a pizza baked at the curb outside by some fantastic chef, but when we got there at 8:45 the pizza was off the menu as they ran out! That left us very few choices for us to eat. we had hibachi which was very good And peas on straciatella. They didn’t even have bread! the bread that they did end up bringing us after we complained a few times was hard as a rock. I hope the remodel goes well. I don’t wanna dash this business to bits, but you should not go there until they’re done remodeling mid July. We left very hungry."

"The Milling Room is an absolute standout! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a warm and elegant atmosphere—high ceilings, beautiful skylights, and a spacious yet cozy dining area that makes you feel welcome and relaxed. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the staff genuinely seemed to care about making our experience special. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations."

"My wife and I have both worked in the service industry, so it takes a lot for us to leave a negative review. We go out for Thanksgiving dinner every year in New York, and unfortunately our experience at The Milling Room this year was the worst we’ve had. The service was the biggest disappointment. We were never offered bread, which we only realized at the end of our meal when we noticed other tables receiving baskets. Our pre-dinner cocktails were never cleared, even though we had finished them well before our entrées arrived. We actually wanted to order wine with dinner, but ended up having to flag down a server halfway through our main course just to get someone’s attention. Even our table was missing a light—small detail, but noticeable in a dim room where every surrounding table had one. The food itself was good, but we were surprised that the $115 Thanksgiving prix fixe didn’t include traditional sides. The turkey came with only potatoes, and we were charged an additional $45 for stuffing, brussels sprouts, and cranberry sauce. The portion sizes—especially the tiny serving of cranberry sauce—made the $14-per-side pricing feel unreasonable. It’s hard to understand how a Thanksgiving prix fixe can consist of turkey and a spoonful of potatoes unless you pay extra for basics. In total, we paid $450 for two people and left feeling deeply disappointed. We’ve had far better Thanksgiving meals in NYC for less—and with far better service. As neighborhood residents and longtime customers of The Milling Room, we expected a memorable, well-executed holiday dinner. Unfortunately, this experience fell far short."

"Milling Room used to be amazing but Comete is an absolutely disgrace. In 10 years of living in NYC this was the worst dining experience I’ve had in the city. I’m going to be having nightmares about this place. I feel like management should have to pay for my therapy sessions to get over this atrocity. There was no heat so had to wear jackets through dinner. (The couple next to us were smart and left.) Maybe I’m high maintenance but getting plates with appetizers would be nice. Overall ridiculous prices for the most basic and bland food imaginable. I’m being melodramatic but this place was honestly terrible."
