The Mill at 2t

Outstanding cuisine. Great atmosphere, you can see everything that the chef does to prepare your dinner. Just fun even if it is a little more expensive. As I was leaving, I was thinking to myself, how soon can I get back here.

Amazing. Each time we go there we try new dishes that are unique and exciting, and commonly there is one dish that blows us away. There are not many places where you can have consistently amazing food and get to talk to the owners while you eat. Sit at the counter and watch the chef cook for you. If you like fine dining or new American you have to go here.

Our party of five arrived here on a Wednesday night around 8ish and closed them out. When all seven tables are seated, it can get quite loud in here since the place is relatively small. However, it's certainly not loud enough to make conversations difficult. The atmosphere in here certainly feels like a NYC or Philly restaurant.

The majority of our table had the Chef's tasting menu, with some others opting for the wine pairing as well. Since the menu changes daily, I won't bother going into a play-by-play of each dish. In general, the food here - from the first dish to the sixth dish - was delicious. The flavors ranged from simple yet powerful to complex but harmonious. Weird words to describe flavors, but it's true.

I was surprised to find a spot like this in the Hartford area, and will definitely return.

Very disappointing. For the price, the food is good, but not great. We went for a birthday celebration and my entree came out cold - twice. The first time they took the entree (sea bass over risotto with lobster), they reheated, but it wasn't heated evenly. The lobster was still cold. They took it back the second time and prepared a new dish. Meanwhile, my wife had her entree while we waited for mine to come back out. Some 30 minutes later, when my entree finally came back, my wife was done with her dinner. Not an ideal presentation or service. We won't be going back.

Sitting at the Chef's bar was probably one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. Ryan the chef was amazing to watch and the food was just incredible. My wife and I have been 5 times and never had a meal that didn't blow us away. The menu is never the same and the staff were very attentive.
