    The service at this restaurant was impeccable. The staff never rushed us, yet they were always attentive and ready when needed. The food was absolutely delicious! We are eagerly looking forward to many more visits to sample more of their menu.

    Main & Mill was a very good restaurant. My wife and I went for a date night and do not regret our decision. The service was outstanding; we ordered a Blue Wedge Salad to split as an appetizer (along with the Jersey Devils [deviled eggs topped with jalapeños and fried oyster]), and our waitress had the kitchen go ahead and split the salad, plating it beautifully on two separate plates (so props to the kitchen, too!). I had the Chicken Milanese and it was very good, the chicken was cooked perfectly. I would definitely recommend it. My wife had the Mahi Risotto, she was less thrilled with her dish. The fish and risotto were both bland (and I agreed with her), the dish needed some arugula for color, and something acidic for the flavor. But the appetizers and my meal were exceptional. We also had the Cocoa Picante (espresso martini) and I had the Diablo Margarita. Both drinks were delicious as well. The only negative thing that we can say about the state of the restaurant was that it was a little dusty, especially in the air vents. Other than that, it was very nice inside. We will be returning to try other oyster appetizers and the Ribeye (I’ve heard great things about it).

    Chelsea was our server. She had many tables and juggled them very well. She was attentive to our needs stopping by just enough. Our meal was delicious! My only suggestion would be to have two hostesses instead of one as the one hostesses was overwhelmed with the amount of guests that showed up all at once.
