    Everything was absolutely excellent. And had an exsquisit bottle of wine on discounted wine Mondays which I was not aware of. I would recommend this for a very very nice dinner out for anyone.

    We visit da Capo at least 1/month. Sometimes twice. Very consistent and meals with taste. Not generic but authentic. Cocktails are real, and mixed there it appears to me, and properly strong. We had wings and pizza. Couple of drinks each amongst the four of us. Super causal night and a good dinner out. Atmosphere is on the louder side but that does ensure your tables conversation is your own. I recommend lunch or dinner at da Capo

    Another great meal at Millwright's. My husband and I celebrated both of our birthdays here on a Friday night on the bridge. Our table was ideal, overlooking the waterfall. They have done an amazing job enclosing the bridge and making it warm and cozy and not jamming too many tables in there. Service was perfect throughout. We were wared that entrees were taking an hour, but our meal was very well paced. We started with shrimp cocktail and a cocktail. We had wine with dinner, which was duck breast for my husband and Lamb shepherds pie for me. Both were excellent. Dessert was a banana sticky toffee pudding, which was very good - but not quite as good as Gordon Ramsey's :) Millwright's offers plenty of vegan options and, for the service and ambiance you get, I think the food is priced very well. Except one steak, everything was under $40.
