This place is alright ...reminds me of Chili's or TGIFs. The food is also just "okay" - the portions are generous though. Chicken Caesar salad was crunchy and the chicken was cooked well/had a blackened crust and the Cobb Salad has a good presentation but you will drown in all of the cheese.
The waiter could've been more attentive - we needed to flag him to our table for Tabasco sauce, extra napkins, and the check. After taking our bills back, we had to wait 15 minutes before credit cards were returned.
The layout of the restaurant/bar is odd. There is a private party room (mind you this room has little insulation in the wintertime and is FREEZING) and then the huge bar is in the main room with another seating area of just wooden booths. These tables are extremely uncomfortable.
TVs abound...there are about 10 40" TVs all around the main room with football, gymnastics, baseball, etc. I was happy about that bc I'd prefer to watch something other than football.....
Even with decent food and a big layout where you can spread out with your friends, Miller's Ale House never seems to be crowded...
I planned on coming here for my best friends birthday seeing as it was her favorite place to eat. I called earlier that day asking if they took reservations in which they said no. Little did I know that later on that evening around 10pm there was a PPV fight on. We had planned on having dinner around 7:30/8 and I was told that I would HAVE TO PAY a cover charge for sitting down and celebrating a birthday and having nothing to do with a PPV event in which people have been sitting around for no exaggeration 3 hours just to wait for the event. I was highly offended when I was asked 3 times to pay for an event I was not staying to watch. Although the food was delicious I really don't think I will be returning, especially being harassed over a cover charge that went into effect right before we were about to leave.
Review Source:I don't know whats happened to this Millers...it was my favorite place to meet friends for dinner and drinks but the quality has drastically changed in the last month or so. The last 2 times I've gone in the evening I have experienced terrible customer service and degraded food quality. I travel pretty far to get to this restaurant to meet friends and the last 2 times I've been there the waiters have been quick to rush us out. Now my table of 6+ people aren't getting there during the dinner rush or even when a major sports game is on, we go there weekdays after 9:30 and the place is usually empty. We love the drink specials, half price apps after 10 and dinner and dessert sometimes too. But the last 2 times we've been there we have felt considerably rushed to finish. The first awful occasion my friend asked our waiter if it was too late to order a pitcher around 12AM he said it wasn't so we hung out longer. Next thing we know we are saying goodbye to some friends standing next to the table and the waiter came behind us, started clearing the table and shoved dirty utensils in my friends full glass of beer. Despite that waiter and the negative end of the night and a friend getting food poisoning from dumplings we decided to give it another try and returned weeks later. This time we had the bill put on our table at 11pm soon after some of us received our food. I had only been there for maybe an hour and a bunch of us were nowhere near finished eating let alone drinking! We asked someone what time they close, 2AM still as usual. The waiter gave us an attitude saying under their breathe "well I've been ready to go for 2 hours" like their schedule was our problem. Then there was a pissed off manager looking person that stormed by our table and was hanging around the dining area. Needless to say my friends and I don't feel our business is appreciated at this Millers and we won't be going back. We are hoping for the newer Millers locations to be better run because we used to have great times at Millers and the food used to be great. One star for lousy service.
