- SScottNew York City •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoAwesome food and great service. The pork belly app and mussels were world-class. The paella was also fantastic, but could’ve used more shellfish and less salmon (frankly, it would’ve been better if the menu said “salmon”, it just said the dish included “market fish”). That being said, I gave the salmon to my wife and she said it was delicious.More infoEl Dorado KitchenPrice: Moderate• Californian• Sonoma•4.7

The Mill’s location is enchanting—nestled beside a fast-moving creek. Parking was convenient in a nearby lot near the bridge leading to a charming complex of restaurants and shops. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the owner (Sanjeev), who escorted us to a cozy table for two right at the creek’s edge. The lunch menu was thoughtfully curated, offering a variety of dishes and beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. On the owner’s recommendation, we started with their special bread, a favorite among many Yelpers. It was fresh, perfectly seasoned with olive oil, garlic, and parsley—absolutely delicious! For our main courses, we had the clam chowder and the spicy chicken salad. Both dishes were flavorful, satisfying, and generously portioned. Whether you’re on a wine-tasting weekend or simply a local out for a scenic drive, we wholeheartedly recommend The Mill at Glen Ellen. It’s the kind of place that combines excellent food, picturesque views, and genuine hospitality to create a memorable dining experience.More infoThe Mill at Glen EllenPrice: Expensive• American• Glen Ellen•4.8
