    We were excited to see when we arrived this summer in Midland to start the boating season that someone had finally brought a Italian restaurant to Midland. Of course we had to try it, we have been there twice so far and both times something has been strange.. When you first walk in the door, you see a completely different restaurant then the Wimpy's that once was and only lasted a short time. Its very busy, which is nice to see in such a small town that people are supporting a new restaurant and giving them a chance. We both ordered the Veal Parmigiana and a large cesar salad for the table. The salad was actually very small for costing 10 bucks and wasn't amazing either. The veal on the other hand was completely odd, like from space. The breading wasn't like breading, if that makes since.. more like a soggy piece of bread left out in the rain. The meat was good quality however. Most meals come with asparagus and pasta with pesto sauce, which pesto is not for me and its a bit odd from the normal pasta and tomato sauce. We both changed our sauce, mine to tomato and his to alfredo sauce ( the alfredo was an extra charge). What I didn't like was they CHARGE for bread and butter!! We both felt very very sick after our meal and we never thought that it could be the food so we went back for another try and guess what? WE WERE SICK AGAIN! We happened to mention to some locals that we tried Lilly's and before we said anything they said their friends went there and they got sick and they had the veal as well! We even mentioned to the owner the veal was very odd with the breading and her was response was "that's how it is" She must be doing something very wrong with people are getting sick. I will not be going back here, unless things change.

    Had dinner here and it was pretty good. The menu is great looking and it's got a lot of diversity which is nice. The atmosphere is really nice and our bartender server was great. We got two apps and two entrees and that was enough to feed four people! The appetizers were absolutely fantastic, but the entrees lacked some salt and flavor. I got the chorizo truffle pasta and the pasta was wonderful. Cooked perfectly and al dente. Update: the next day. Reheating the pasta was great. The little salt I had added really sunk in and gave it great flavor!

    Didn't have a Chance to take a photo of the food because it was so good .... love You lillys

    Ok me and my food junkies have been coming to Lilly restaurant for the last 3 years, we drive 2 hours just for this place and every time has been amazing from the customer service to the food and knowledge of food. The restaurant is family owned and managed from the kitchen to the front house, I love this place and if you love food as much as I do come to Lilly's it's worth the travel and the taste of love... omg if you love cheese you will be treated to glory of the 3rd kind

    First time having been and wow if you love amazing flavour and generous portions, you'll love this place! Also the cutest and romantic atmosphere perfect for a date night. Overall amazing experience!!

    I shared the filo wrapped brie appetizer (which was FABULOUS), ordered the mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes pasta, and shared the chocolate bomb dessert.

    Great food! Unfortunately they are in desperate need of a server... but they are very much doing…read moretheir best! Salads are large, fries are well seasoned and taste great, lots of specials. We look forward to ordering the cheese garlic bread and pizza in the near future as they were sending them out like crazy for takeout.

    We stopped here for dinner last night while driving the area. We asked if they had fish & chips…read moreeven though it wasn't on the menu. The owner was quite busy running around, serving people, grabbing drinks from the bar, taking orders, cleaning tables & bringing out food. It would have been nice if he had a waitress to cover the customers who were seated instead of him trying to do everything. He would make us fish & chips with halibut even though it was not on the menu. The order included soup or salad so my husband got the house salad with dressing & I got the bacon potatoe soup. Both were a good size portion and I really enjoyed my soup! The orders came with 2 large crispy & very hot portions of halibut and fries. We probably could have shared an order but we didn't know how big they were. Excellent dinner and fixed our cravings for this. Was so hungry I slathered the tartar sauce on & was digging in so fast... so tasty & almost forgot to take photos. I will come back next time so try their Greek food...
