Market Grille in Manchester, Connecticut is a nice combination between an upscale eatery and a casual restaurant. You can meet your coworkers there for drinks just as easily as you could bring your child to Market Grille for their birthday. The menu is mostly modern American cuisine, but there is also an extensive wine and beer list.

The four-cheese lasagna at Market Grille is very good. Two other very popular entrees here are the classic fish and chips and the stuffed domestic pork chop. If you like seafood, the raw bar here will not disappoint. Every day, fresh oysters of all varieties are offered.

Specials are always top notch. With seasonal appeals. With regularity my daughter and I go for dinner. I mostly order from the specials list and have not once been disappointed. Service is wonderful and the price point is so well valued for such a high end meal. Perfectly prepared fresh high quality ingredients. I've been disappointed by other places that attempt to offer high end dining. But the Mill Restaurants are always on the top of their game.

Everything was fine. I was disappointed that I put in the reservation that we were celebrating a birthday and I also mentioned it while the waitress was present and she wished my sister a happy birthday birthday. I thought they might do something special. they didn’t. That was the only disappointment.
