    AMAZING! 12 out of 10 experience. ⭐️ The best restaurant we’ve been to in the state of Kentucky! Being from San Diego, we regularly dine at great restaurants, and Millstone is right on par with the level of excellence we’re used to in San Diego. Beautiful interior design, incredible food, and friendly staff. Great date spot, good place to bring out of town guests, somewhere to go for a celebration meal, etc.. So charming!

    It was a 43rd anniversary and the service and the food was excellent. My husband had the bone and pork chop and I had the filet mignon but my favorite as always is the butterscotch cookie with ice cream.

    We had a phenomenal time! This is such a fun restaurant to come to for special occasions, & we could have stayed for even longer if someone didn’t have a plane to catch :( Sitting near the kitchen is fun so you can see what they’re preparing & planning to bring out next. The “salad bar” is an experience all on its own- the smoked salmon is perfection! From the meats….truly, the special sirloin is the best cut they have. Kept the card on green for that one!
