The seafood, the atmosphere and our server, Amanda
We had an incredible dining experience while celebrating our anniversary tonight. It was our first time visiting and certainly won’t be the last. We had a table outside and our server, Eric, mentioned it was one of the best in the house. We couldn’t agree more as it was a beautiful setting and view. Eric was wonderful - so attentive. Our meals were delicious, we had the lobster pasta and stuffed shrimp, then ended our night with a champagne toast and dessert on the house,...read full review

The Mill on the River offers an excellent setting with a great ambiance and some of the best quality food in the Hartford area. The menu features delectable options like the grouper, seafood martini, and delicious salmon with mashed potato and coleslaw salad, along with choices like Rigatoni with rabe, chicken, and sausage, and the Prime Rib special. Guests say the prime rib is some of the best they have ever had, and the house-roasted garlic olive oil served with bread is a happy surprise. Dining on the covered patio provides a relaxing experience with a view of water and woods, and the restaurant sits beside a waterfall in rural Connecticut. The interior is attractive and decorated beautifully, especially for Autumn, enhancing the lovely setting. The service is exceptional, with friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive staff who make guests feel welcome. Customers thoroughly enjoy the dining experience, praising the superb food prepared to perfection and the attention to detail by the chef. Many visitors say the presentation is lovely, and the atmosphere creates a five-star experience. Guests often return to celebrate special occasions, including birthdays and weddings, or simply enjoy the wonderful environment and delicious meals, such as the Coconut shrimp and chicken parm. However, some guests have noted that on busy evenings, the seating arrangements can be tight, impacting the overall experience.
