This restaurant is weirdly afraid of salt and spices.
The service was amazing, the ingredients are super fresh and plating + atmosphere is great. The food sadly has mild - no flavor. Well the ingredients do taste fresh but I kept wanting the dishes to be seasoned. They seem to be afraid of spice and salt here. For example the fried oyster mushroom (a fried dish known to be a little salty) had no salt at all. For the price it is, it’s disappointing that there is no seasoning/ flavor. It’s also such an easy fix. If the seasoning was applied correctly this restaurant could easily become 5 stars. 2 people: 2 mains, 2 apps, a dessert and some drinks and the bill came out to about $150 without tip included. It’s 1/3 only vegan finer dining experiences in the bay so I will probably eat here again in the future. Hopefully the chef can adjust the menu to be better seasoned between now and my next visit.

We had a reservation for a party of 7 and were seated almost immediately. We had 6 different entrees, several appetizers & 1 dessert. Everyone liked what they had as well as what they tried of others. Great service!

I have eaten here several times, and each time I swear that I will not come back. But like Charlie Brown and the football, I keep hoping that it will work.
Dinner here last night started with a waiter cautioning against several dishes. Not confidence-inspiring. We ordered salad and soup -- and they were basic but very good.
Then came the mains. A burger that crumbled into a pile of lentils and had to be consumed with a spoon. A pastry brick that tasted like a brick. The bill was $75/head.
Vegan food is just not that complicated. I keep thinking that this place will step up. We literally do better with Purple Carrot, the vegan cook-by-numbers kits.

Millennium Restaurant in Oakland offers an excellent vegan dining experience. We loved the flavorful starters and well-crafted main courses. Desserts were just okay, but the cozy ambiance and overall quality made it a very enjoyable meal.

Absolutely loved the Thanksgiving Feast experience - the creative menu and plating, amazing service and can't wait to experience near year's feast already 🍁❤️
We had reservations for 5:30 pm. After waiting 15 minutes, we still hadn't been seated. The host didn't want to hurry or suggest to the people who were lingering that it was a very busy night, Thanksgiving, and people were waiting for their reserved tables. After I suggested we would take any table available, we were finally seated. The food was just OK as it was their 5 course Thanksgiving dinner. I have been to Millennium several times, and their food is usually much better. The service however was excellent and I was given a free glass of wine to compensate for the wait. I would still eat at Millennium, but not at Thanksgiving.

the rigatoni was spiced but was dry, the sauce was chalky and undersalted
the tempeh itself was good but the rest of the dish was underwhelming, the carrots and jicama had no seasoning (raw unsalted carrots for a $26 dish), i was hoping it would be at least pickled or seasoned
the pumpkin mochi was good though! creative with edamame pesto
for a $75 for three dishes i was hoping there would be more flavor

Top points for menu innovation, such a range of dishes to choose from. Everything was tasty and interesting and I thought portion size was relatively good for the high price point.
We were recommended the oyster mushrooms and arancini to start. I felt these were nothing special for a fine dining restaurant. The olives were served warm and delicious. The smokey tempeh was good and I loved how the menu wasn't based on faking meat dishes, rather letting naturally vegan ingredients shine.
