Millwright's Restaurant

"First time visitors and would go back again. This is an upmarket establishment and you can tell the employees are trained to a very high standard. I'm a very fussy eater, basically I'm a child, so I like my food plain and simple. It's important to me that the server listens and delivers my food the way I want it, so if I ask for just steak for instance without sauce on it, I expect that. My server listened and my food came exactly as I wanted it. Some might find the prices high, but you get what you pay for and you could tell they paid attention to detail. We were celebrating an anniversary and they gave us a glass of bubbly for free and decorated the desert plates with happy anniversary written in chocolate. It was this type of listening and attentiveness that makes the difference. For two meals, two deserts and 2 drinks each the total including 20% tip was 190. We will definitely be back"

"I’ve been wanting to go to the Millwright for a while now and decided to finally go to celebrate the big 30. And I’m so glad we have it a try. The the food was amazing- the flavors, the freshness. 12 out of 10 would recommend the chicken and gnocchi. Our server was attentive, kind, personable. Overall, it was a really great experience. We are looking forward to go back to try the chef tasting special text time!"

"We hosted our wedding last month at Millwright's and are still on cloud nine from such a special day! We cannot say enough wonderful things about Millwright's and our experience. Ashley and the team made our wedding dreams come true, and Ashley helped create the most amazing experience for our family and friends. Our guests still rave about our wedding and the professionalism and friendliness of the staff at Millwright's! From our ceremony in the loft, to cocktails and passed appetizers enjoyed throughout the space, to dinner in the main dining room, to dancing in the tavern, every element went off without a hitch. We enjoyed many of our favorite dishes and so many of our guests commented that is was the best meal they had ever eaten (a few favorites included the mini lobster rolls, the meatballs, the johnny cakes, the steak frites, and the olive oil cake and brownie dessert). It was a spectacular day and we would highly recommend Millwright's for a wedding or your next private event."

"My husband and I have dined at Millwrights on the bridge and in the tavern a number of times, but our most recent experience blew us away. We sat in the dining room for our anniversary and the attention to detail to make us feel special made our night feel like a dream. The service, food, drinks and views were impeccable (and I have to add that we are both difficult to impress). We ordered the short rib and duck breast and both agreed it was the best we’d ever had. Millwrights also sources their food locally which is something we both greatly appreciate. We look forward to our next visit, thank you for taking care of us!"

"The most romantic atmosphere we have found in Connecticut. The customer service was superb, the food was amazing and the wine selection was right on point. Tonight's dinner transformed our ordinary Thursday into a remarkable memory. We'll definitely go back soon and hope to see our new friend Ron who took such great care of us tonight."
