Founder is always a solid "go to" restaurant in Milford. Food is always good and service is excellent. It would be nice if the menu would vary a little more and please return the oyster po'boy sandwich!
October 2025
Great atmosphere, great server, but the food and drinks were meh. I had a white cosmo and it was very sweet and not cold enough. The polenta was ok, but the it was unexpectedly soupy and very salty. The halibut was overcooked and the dish itself was too salty. I'll be back at some point, but this time was not a good meal.
September 2025
Wow. Incredible food! Polenta was beyond delicious and our entrees (angel hair, burger and frittata) were all SO good. Desserts were just as impressive. Nice covered porch with tables. We were inside, the booths are not very plus-size friendly, but other than that, A+. Our server was great as well.
