    Mill Valley has outstanding food for a decent price but the ambience of the restaurant needs some work. It has decent decor and layout but the lighting was way too bright. This place has very good food and a very different menu than most of the Rochester menu so we were sorry to see that it did not have many people in it for a holiday week evening. But the lighting in the place made it feel more like a cheap diner in terms of ambience. Food service was a little bit slow, especially given that there were less than 10 groups in the place.

    First time for dinner at this relatively new restaurant in Rochester. Unique well crafted reasonably priced cocktails. There was an amazing crab leg special. Our servers recommended chicken with risotto and it was excellent. Great food at moderate prices. I’ll definitely be back

    First time experience, food service and atmosphere above average. Old Fashion drink needs muddle cherries and bitters mixed in by bartender. Will return again soon.

    Milk Valley Kitchen is one of my favorites. The Miso -crusted Sea Bass is top of my list. Service is excellent!
