    Crispy Rice Sushi - Spicy Salmon
    Ericka D.

    I enjoyed the restaurant atmosphere, the bar, the service, the food, and drinks! Everything was really nice! Our waitress was very accommodating and gave great menu suggestions. If you looking for a casual night the handhelds are great, if you want a more upscale experience the steaks are your go too! Happy hour is great as well with half of drinks and some of their popular appetizers. Great place for a date night, girls night out, or a solo date!

    I've been to Earls at Millenia three times now. I was really excited to try it the first time, and the other two visits happened because it was the restaurant the group chose. I kept hoping I'd have a better experience, but unfortunately, my opinion hasn't changed. The biggest positive is the location. It's in a great area, the restaurant itself is beautiful, and there's plenty of seating both inside and outside. The service has also been consistently good. Every waitress I've had has been friendly, attentive, and professional. The food, though, just doesn't do it for me. I've ordered something different each visit, hoping to find a favorite, but I always leave feeling underwhelmed. The cocktails have tasted watered down, and most of the dishes have lacked the flavor I was expecting. On my most recent visit, I ordered the shrimp and scallop spaghettini. It was overwhelmingly pasta with very little seafood, and the dish itself was pretty bland. Of everything I've tried, the truffle fries and the Korean bibimbap were the standouts because they actually had some flavor. I can definitely understand why so many people enjoy Earls, and it's always busy, but it just isn't my style. If I'm in the Millenia area, there are several other restaurants I'd choose before coming back here. For me, the atmosphere and service are much stronger than the food.

    Stopped by Earls Kitchen + Bar after shopping at The Mall at Millenia and honestly, such a dope lunch spot. Located on the second floor with indoor and outdoor seating the patio is definitely the best view, but this time I sat at the bar and still loved the vibe. I ordered the happy hour petite steak frites with truffle fries and it was the PERFECT lunch. Not too heavy, super flavorful, and those truffle fries were sooo good. I also had the Don Julio Reserve margarita with black salt because I'm a sucker for black salt on a margarita lol. Service was great too everyone was super attentive and friendly. Definitely one of my favorite spots to stop at after shopping for good food, drinks, and a cute atmosphere.

    I came here for the first time in a long time and was really disappointed. I was bringing a friend here for the first time ever and was honestly embarrassed. For starters, service was extremely slow. At least a 20 minute wait for each round of drinks. More than that for each plate of food. The food was a miss, lacking flavor. The drinks were weak and were not well balanced. I will probably never return because of how poor this experience was. The table was sticky and cleanliness was clearly not a priority.

    Food service and ambiance is absolutely amazing. Delicious deliciousness and more. Recommend this place for a date night or celebration. Love this place.

    Updated review I have returned. The customer service was better this time and the food was decent. Still not my choice when coming to this area but if you're looking for a nice aesthetic, then this would be the place to go. Love the atmosphere but the customer service for that day was very snooty and nice at that same time. The food came out hot and taste good but unsure if I would come back due to the customer service.

    We visited into Earls for dinner. There were 4 of us dining. Our server was Trey. We tried the following: - Crispy birria tacos (appetizer) - Blackened chicken with the potato salad and Cole slaw - Classic burger with fries - Deluxe burger with fries - Steak (4 oz) with fries We passed on dessert. The menu looked really great, pastas, drinks and different things to choose from. Service was decent nice. Lemonade was like water and lemon, they could do better on that but everything else was good.

    I came here for an early Sunday dinner and it was such a peaceful experience. The restaurant itself is beautiful, which made the whole vibe even better. We ordered the charred corn + avocado dip (great portion), the aburi salmon sushi press (definitely worth it and super flavorful), and the deluxe burger, which was really juicy. The Kentucky mules were good too, just a little strong on the ginger. Overall, I'd come back, especially to try more of their appetizers!

    This restaurant is a gorgeous classy and very spacious establishment. Staff was very friendly. For lunch we had great service. Our first server left but Isabella took over and did an amazing job. I enjoyed the ahi tuna poke bowl, simple but exactly as described. My friend had the Cajun blackened chicken with fries nothing else and it was excellent. Wonderful lunch!

    Crispy Rice Sushi

    Stopped into Earls Kitchen + Bar at the Millenia Mall and grabbed a seat at the bar for happy hour -- a great choice overall. Started with a Ketel One slightly dirty martini with blue cheese olives (half price HH), which was absolutely delicious and a strong way to kick things off. For snacks, we ordered the Crispy Rice Sushi, a standout dish. The rice had a satisfying crunch, topped with spicy ahi tuna and finished with a sweet soy-based drizzle that tied everything together into a perfectly balanced bite. We also tried the Birria Tacos, served alongside a heavenly consommé. The tacos were small, crisp, and nicely spicy, making them dangerously easy to keep reaching for. Definitely a highlight of the visit. The space itself is stylish and well designed, with comfortable bar seating and a properly placed foot rail that makes settling in easy for a longer stay. Service started a bit slow, likely due to only one bartender managing the crowd early on. Around 6 PM a second bartender arrived, and after a brief conversation he mentioned a family issue had delayed his shift -- completely understandable. Once both were behind the bar, service noticeably improved, and it was reassuring to know the bar is typically staffed by two. All in all, a very enjoyable happy hour experience with great bites, strong cocktails, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'll gladly stop back in next time I'm in the area.

    LOVE Earls! food is always amazing, I've never had a bad experience with service... this time around Charlize was our waitress and she was just the best! Great energy, so sweet, made sure our table was taken care of during our entire visit. I only wish they would bring back the buffalo cauliflower lol

    Crispy Tofu
    Alexia M.

    We originally came here for happy hour. I arrived about 15 minutes before it ended, but unfortunately you have to sit in specific areas such as the bar or patio to get the happy hour menu, and both were full. If you're coming for happy hour and have a party larger than two, I recommend arriving at least 20 to 30 minutes before it ends. Instead, we were seated inside and the food was delicious. I ordered the crispy tofu and salmon sushi press, and they were definitely crispy. My jaw was a little sore by the end of the meal. The steak was my favorite dish; it was juicy, tender, and full of flavor. Overall, the food quality was excellent and I would definitely come back to try more from the menu.

    Do they take reservations?

    Yes! On the Open Table app, you can reserve a seat. They may have a link to it on their website. You can also call them.

    I heard they stopped using Creekstone farm beef for their steaks. Can someone confirm?

    Yes, this is correct. USDA is now their supplier.

    Is this place halal? Someone had stated that they might be

    Earl's supplier, Creekstone Farms, claims that their beef is halal. You can do some research on it.

    Anyone tried the Leroys Dry Ribs?

    Such a fun spot for happy hour! We came in ready to relax and left already planning our next visit…read more The drink specials were generous and the vibe was warm and lively without being too loud to actually talk. Hands down the star of the show was the shrimp dish, perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and honestly some of the best we've had in a while. We ended up ordering a second round just to enjoy it a little longer. Service was friendly and attentive the whole time, which made the experience even better. If you're looking for a great happy hour with a standout menu item, The Whyskey delivers. We'll definitely be back!

    We popped over here for lunch on a Saturday around two in the afternoon. We were very surprised…read morewith how busy it was as it's typically not that busy on Saturday afternoons. We chose seats at the bar and were greeted promptly by Brian and Rowan. Because there were a lot of people and just the two of them, they were running around taking orders from tables as well as servicing the bar so it did take a little bit to get our drink orders in, but we were enjoying looking through the whiskey library anyways. I started off with a Suncreek blonde ale. It is strawberry blonde ale and it's delicious. My husband started with the Yingling. He keeps hoping they will bring the Kentucky bourbon ale back on tap again. For lunch, I got the whiskey dip which is full of chopped beef with cheese and onions. Served with an herb, dipping sauce, and your choice of side. I opted for the sweet potato waffle fries because they are delicious. My husband got a burger with fries cooked perfectly. Once we are done with our food, we did opt for a taster. My husband had to go through several different bottles before he found one they actually had in stock. That is one of the downside is the whiskey library that is online is not always reflective of what they actually have in stock as he was really looking forward to trying the old Fitzgerald birthday, but alas, they did not have it in stock. He ended up going with the jack Daniels 12 year and really enjoyed it. I opted for the widow Jane 14 year very sweet easy to drink. Great service from Bryan and Rowan always enjoy seeing them behind the bar

    We don't hear for dinner on Monday night. We did not make a reservation ahead of time but because…read morewe ate around 6:30 it was fairly easy to just walk in. We did have to wait for just a minute because they were at changeover for servers and many of the night servers were just coming on.. We started with the lump crab hush puppies. They come as an order of four and they literally just kind of pop in your mouth. They are so good. We would definitely come back just to have those. My husband got the Cajun steak, but he got everything that comes on the steak on the side, including the seasoning. He wasn't sure how spicy the seasoning was or what the sauce was and he likes to be able to control that himself. Steak was good. He did have a little bit of the season and said next time he definitely order it with the seasoning on as the seasoning wasn't that spicy. He also got a side of the au gratin potatoes and the collard greens. The collards were not the best. They definitely need some more flavor. He added hot sauce to it and it helped it but they definitely need some additional seasoning. The potatoes were good although as you got to the bottom, they definitely were not cooked all the way through. They could've been cooked a little bit longer. I got the chicken and waffle - it comes with four pieces of chicken and a half waffle. The waffle is really delicious. It's got a little crunch on the outside but a little sweetness in it and the chicken was absolutely amazing. I would definitely get the fried chicken again there is a reason they are famous for it. Our server, Ariana was incredibly sweet and very attentive to us throughout the night. Great service like that would also have us come back to this location again in the future.

For them to have Cajun/soul food...it was extremely bland. Truffle deviled eggs were bland, Mac and cheese had taste but just wasn't a fan, and the fried chicken had no taste. I was there with 3 other people and they weren't thrilled about their food either, it was a shame. The food was also not consistent. 2 ppl overweight Mac and cheese, one came out with breadcrumbs the other didn't, 2 ppl ordered oysters-1 order was good the other was clearly burnt. The area that this restaurant is in has many quality restaurants with great tasting food, I'd go elsewhere with my money.
