I hadn't been to Millie's in about a year. Â My wife and I used to frequent Millie's and I've held several work functions here for large groups (and those have always been pretty well managed and provided for).
My past experience was for my Wife's birthday........about a week before this writing.
We had a group of 8. Â Were planning on eating and making merry on a very nice evening. Â The server we had was smug-not very helpful and made a few mistakes that set the tone for the night.
I should preface this by saying that Millies is under construction and they are remodeling so it looks a bit out of sorts. Â
6 of our group ordered the Prime Rib-which my wife and I have a fond kindiling for really good Prime Rib. Â It was $18 for a small cut, but typically that's plenty for me. Â The Prime Rib was like a piece of Roast Beef that was well done.
I found it odd that (a) they don't ask you what temperature you want it at-well, medium well, rare, etc.....so that should've thrown me a flare (b) the server never asked if we liked the food or if it was cooked properly. Â It was disappointing.
One of our guests ordered the Mahi Mahi and said it was okay. Â I think all of our group were underwhelmed with the food.
We did stay for many drinks.......although, one of the chocolate Martini's was rimmed with a lime. Â And when we brought it to the Server's attention, he said "a lime?.....well, I was the one that made that drink". Â He never offered her another beverage or to redo it properly. Â He did recognize that it was incorrect. Â Poor service for a larger group with a guarantee'd rake of 18% (and it's typically more if the service is good from us).
Top this off with the bar running out of Budweiser.........a restaurant, "with a bar"-running out of Budweiser. Â I have more Budweiser in my fridge at home than a bar? Â I've only seen this in cases where they stop paying the distributor, so this probably doesn't bode well for Millie's.
It was disappointing. Â We probably won't go back to Millies for quite a while. Â There must be some strange things at the circled K for them to be this out of whack.
