ML is out of the way for us, but it is worth the trip. Menu always impresses and it's hard to choose. We ALWAYS include an order of the buffalo cauli mac because it's our absolute fave, but it's best to order a bunch and share (if you're into that!). So many great choices & generous portions at a fair price. One of the best.
