Mixed review for us Start with the good. Sat at the bar, bartenders were attentive and were super helpful in helping us make decisions. Both of us loved our drinks and dinner (I had the pork chop - out of this world). Cool bar setup too. Cozy spot on cold night. 5 star experience and we will be back. Now the bad. Had reservations and noted in the reservation that we didn't want to sit next to the garage doors/windows because it was single digits outside and those tables are cold. The place was empty when we arrived. Hostess noted our reservation request and said the system is showing a table near the window. I said "there's 15 open tables away from the windows, can't we sit someplace else." She said "the system is saying to sit there". What happened to customer service? so we sat at the bar - see above. And over half the open tables when we arrived were never occupied before we left?? Very odd experience there. read more

I am absolutely glad I celebrated my Birthday at Milestone. I had so much fun with my sisters and friends. I love their happy hour menu. Their pizzas remind me of Rome. Every time I come here I try something new, but still order my usuals. I tried their wings and everyone devoured it. Our bar tender keeps us entertained as usual and making amazing drinks for everyone. read more

pleasantly surprised by this spot! my bf, his mom and i went to milestone for a quick lunch on weekday during thanksgiving and we were really pleased with the vibes, food and service! we were one of maybe 4 parties there and service was quick and attentive. we started with the meatballs which were phenomenal (ngl, it had us thinking about it for the rest of our trip)! really fresh and rich in flavor. we all got the good bowl with various toppings - me with salmon, bf with steak tips and her with shrimp! it was light, healthy, fresh and exactly what we were looking for to hold us over til our early dinner. the space is open and airy and we loved their upside down christmas tree decorations! they seem to host a lot of neighborhood events and seem very community oriented. def recommend checking out for a good, quick bite! it's a good option for us and we'll def be back when we're back in town! read more

A cute little spot! Parking can be a little difficult in downtown but we decided to go to the pay lot across the street. Came on a Tuesday evening around 6:30 pm and we were able to get a table right away. The service was nice and quick. The menu has a variety of burgers, pizzas, and salads and soups and other entrees. I ordered the good bowl with chicken and really liked it. The ingredients tasted fresh and the flavors worked really well together. Loved the sauce on it. The inside is cute and has a nice atmosphere. I thought the bowl was a little more on the pricey side for $27 with chicken. But overall a nice meal! read more

LOVE this place for happy hour. We were in Mystic for one weekend and came here two days in a row. The happy hour deal is amazing and the margaritas are large and tasty. The food was also so flavorful, we ordered a bunch of appetizers to share and there were no misses. Not too crowded, especially if you come early, and the vibes are high. Not on the main stretch, slightly tucked away but worth the walk! read more

We selected to dine at Milestone in Mystic because of their outdoor patio, we decided this before knowing what kind of food they offered. A bit backwards, but it worked out okay! It was such a beautiful, sunny day, I'm surprised more of the patio hadn't been occupied. Lucky for us there were plenty suitable choices for all of us in the menu. I got the Good Bowl. This is my kind of salad, it was very fresh, filled with all of my favorite things. It had quinoa, radish, sweet potatoes, red onion, avocado and toasted pepitas seeds. We also got their Spring Pie and Herbed fries. The pizza was a bit too thin and flimsy. It was ok, but certainly not anywhere near the top of the list for the best pizzas. One thing that was a bit annoying about the service was the lack of water. As I mentioned it was pretty warm outside. We received lukewarm water, and no ice. When our food arrived we hadn't received a refill. Eventually I had to ask the waitress for more water, she brought a big bottle of not so cold water, filled our glasses, and took it away. Hmm.. this is a bit strange. Other than this the service was fine. read more

Had a great dinner here with friends. Our waitress was quick and helpful. We love the Betty White pizza! Corn ribs were great too. Only complaint is the indoor patio area smelled of sulphur, it doesn't usually so it was a bit odd. read more

Food and drinks were great, however my boyfriend and I were deliberately ignored by your female bartender tonight and she was tending to everyone around us and acknowledged people that came in after us we only got service by the male bartender because he saw us sitting there with no menus or that we had not been greeted yet at all . I am highly disappointed because this is the second time that the same male bartender has had to come help us because the female bartenders don't acknowledge us... it felt very direct and I hope you fix the situation it felt like discrimination and I am in the food and industry business and I would have never done that. read more

I finally checked out milestone the other day and I was pleasantly suprised by my experience. The waitress was attentive and offered great suggestions for the menu. The artichoke dip was warm and paired well with the pita. The cocktails I tried were refreshing and bright in both flavor and color. The standout was the salad tho. It had a cumin based dressing that left me floored with how incredible it was. If they are willing to sell me that dressing I'd gladly buy it . read more

Love the food. Their ribeye steaks are high quality meat that are cooked to perfection. The Filet was a perfect medium rare, beautifully seared, the filet was pink/red juicy. They paid great attention to the fattier cap and it came out juicy and crispy. Really well cooked! The service both times I went was very professional and pleasant. The Ambiance is where they stumbled. The music is too loud and they didn't turn it down when asked. The music is perfect for a lively bar (which it has) but is uncomfortably loud when seated and trying to enjoy a meal with friends. In short, this would be my go to right now for a great steak if I was sitting at the bar, or with one other person. It's too loud for four people to enjoy both a meal and conversation. They do have a second little bar area when you first enter the restaurant where the music didn't seem quite as loud but it's not as nice as the main dining room. read more

We came here a few months ago when the area had a power blackout - the staff were so accommodating as they told us right away the heat was just coming back. The bar area had great heaters on so we sat there - had a great meal of salmon served perfectly. The bartender was very helpful also! The other person was gluten free and they were happy to accommodate that. We've eaten here before for lunch and also had a wonderful filling soup and salad. Great job. We will be back when in mystic (we are original Mystic-ites!). Lots of folks there all having a good time. Nice ambiance. read more

Great Music playing in the back ground. I walked in and paused to see if I was treated for a moment and no one greeted me, so I asked some staff that were sitting by if it was self seating and they said yes. So I sat at the bar. I was welcomed and water was provided along with the menus. Drink and happy hour menus. I got here early, so the happy hour bites and libations were all that was available. Found out when I began to order and was told that I had to wait until 4, so I ordered off the happy hour menu.... Figured I would chill until 4 and then order a main dish. Sometimes you need to be patient to see what comes up. Drinks are made to order, in case you don't see your favorite on their drink menu. I was served by Rolando, which a fellow Yelper mentioned Dips were yummy and hit the spot. Left to right, dips a different take on hummus, cheesy, and olives Really flavorful. Tried the taco. Yes, one taco... It fell apart. Not bad though. I mixed the olives and cheese and it was on point. I was also able to order a little early because of Rolando. Also recommend dipping your fork in one or multiple dips before tasting the Brussels, I think you'd be surprised at the great taste they can give. There gets to be a crowd, even on a rainy night. Saturday night reservations recommended. Parking. Not so fun when it's raining. read more

Seriously cannot believe this place was not packed for brunch today. The Bloody Mary was perfect. Today's special drink was a watermelon spritz and two in my group loved it. For food we all enjoyed the meatball appetizer The Eggs Benny was delicious, the fish and chips plentiful and I highly recommend the chocolate pudding for dessert. Can't wait to come back! read more

Staff was very nice, our group of 4 got drinks, carmelized onion dip, 2 pizzas... all excellent! Will definitely go back

Fun place. Cool inside. Smash burgers and salads are very good. Wings are just ok. Never had the pizza. The bartender girl from NJ was great. Not sure if she's still there. The male bartender who is there a lot is a really nice guy, but painfully slow behind the bar. Been there prob 10 times. First night there was a Thursday and I asked the outside bartender how are Thursday nights here seeing it was really slow. He told me about Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays instead. Well ok then. Either way it's nice to have a good casual spot in Mystic. read more

Tried this place for the first time. Has a great vibe and we had high expectations based on the ambiance and how the menu looked. Unfortunately all of us were thoroughly disappointed. Start with the good: ambiance, service, margarita was well made, wings were good. Now the bad: every one of our entrees were extremely bland and frankly unimpressive. Small portions that didn't remotely meet what the menu described while also at a high price. One entree was a hanger steak at $36, however it was the exact same amount of food and almost same presentation as a "small plate" of steak tips at $19. Both came with "garlic mashed" which were runny, bland, and to be honest seemed to be instant potatoes. The French onion soup was burnt on top so had a burnt bitter taste. The chicken pot pie was small and ordinary. We had really hoped based on how nice the restuarant looked, that the food quality would match. I have never had a bad meal anywhere in mystic so this was a bummer. I fear that with so many amazing surrounding restaurants that this place will have to really step up when it comes to their food in order to survive with all the competition. read more

We went for happy hour with friends. I had the mash & tips along with a Cosmo. Friends had pizza. We all agreed the food was delicious, drinks were potent, and the ambiance is really great! Would definitely recommend. read more

Came here with a friend over Memorial Day weekend and it was absolutely amaaazing! Our server Emily was very kind and attentive. We started off with the "Drinking with Chickens" cocktail and subbed the gin for vodka. It was delicious but a little heavy on the Campari, the prosecco was faint, definitely not a bubbly drink but still very tasty. We shared Roasted Brussel Sprouts as an appetizer. They were scrumptious and seasoned to perfection. I also got "A Good Bowl", it was great but definitely not a very flavorful dish. Very light. My friend got a burger, I believe it was "The Milestone" with LTO, she said it was great but the burger was MASSIVE. A bit messy to eat. Came with 2 patties. The perfect option if you're super hungry. What I loved the most about Milestone was their seating options! They had an outdoor patio with umbrellas and an indoor/outdoor area with lots of natural light and fans (where we sat). They also had an indoor portion that was closed the day we went. Overall 10 out of 10 would recommend. read more

Food was good had the white pizza, and fish balls. Drinks in my opinion were on the weak side. Would stick to beer or wine. I would have rated 5 stars but took one off because of the drinks. Would come back read more

The Better Beets and Burrata was amazing. The most delicious beet salad I've ever had!!!

In the spirit of a New Year, filled with Resolutions and hopes to live a healthier lifestyle all while doing it to the fullest... Milestone is my first review of 2024!! Upon first arrival I recognized a familiar building in which used to be a local Asian restaurant, reimagined into a new modern vibe that fits perfectly in the heart of downtown. From what I I've heard locally, this is a sister restaurant to another establishment in CT, will update review when I 100 percent confirm. Being greeted immediately usually tells you right away what the overall experience is going to be like, and the entire staff was attentive and pleasant. While the drink menu was plentiful I stuck to my guns and continued with dry January and ordered an N/A Guinness, which surprisingly tasted no different than if it did have the alcohol. Moving onto food and continuing with the healthy habits going into 2024, we kept the meals small plates trying two great apps. 1. Good Beets (the name doesn't do them any justice) the beets were Perfect Beets. Nice creamy ricotta cheese and pistachio crumble with honey and balsamic drizzles. 2. Street Sprouts (seems and tastes like a take on street corn). Pickled onions and some chipotle aioli with a nice crispy Brussel sprout platter. The atmosphere and overall vibe, will be a great addition to dining options for locals as well as tourism! Cheers read more

Ambiance is nice, clean. Bar is good, extra bar and open area in back. Music sometimes too. Food and menu are decent. Burgers and pizza are fire! Drinks and beer selection good too! Good for big parties with long high tables or date night at the front windows people watching. Owner is super nice guy too. You can tell he cares about the dining experience and food. Great to have him in Mystic! read more

We hosted a private gathering for wedding guests and Milestone was the perfect place. They offered an extensive menu of delicious food and options for cash or open bar. Everyone had such a great time - we could not have asked for a better experience. read more

Have been a few times and always have a great meal and great service. We went on Thursday and it is apparently 1/2 price bottle of wines which was a great deal. We started with the wings which had homemade hot sauce and homemade ranch which was very tasty. We got a Cesar salad to split, the dressing was great and presentation was pretty. We then got half margharita pizza and half Anthony's (sausage and hot peppers). We were seated right away, there was live music in the main part but sat on the covered porch. Our server was attentive as well. read more

Rorlando behind the bar is THE MAN! The place is awesome as well. Location is ideal for a great night out in Mystic

So glad they could accommodate a party of 6 during a busy Saturday evening. We were on patio, which was sealed up for the cold weather and it wasn't uncountable. Plus the Christmas lights made it feel cozy. We had time to check out the happy hour menu. I got the tips and mash along with a Greek side salad. It was a great portion for the price. read more

Beautiful place, right off the Main Street. Great vibes, so clean and cozy at the same time. The staff was all Super nice. We didn't have a reservation and also have two young kids but were made to feel welcome and they were able to make a kids meal and even let my kids share because they don't eat much. Food and drinks were all delicious- great chili for a cold and rainy day. We don't live nearby but will definitely come back if we are back in Mystic! read more

Nice, casual place for a drink. Wife loved the aperol spritz. Wings were really special. Friendly bartender.

We love it here. The staff is great the food is delish. We love the slightly dark ambiance. Happy hour is great!

Went out with a group of four and enjoyed it all...we had drinks, appetizers, entrees, and dessert. There was a good selection of seasonal cocktails that we ordered right away then moved into appetizers. The gazpacho wasn't a favorite because it had whole pieces of vegetables in it rather than chopped or blended vegetables; the flavor was good though. The group really liked the chili and the artichoke dip was fantastic. We also had the scallop appetizer which was phenomenal. Everyone enjoyed their entree with the crispy side of potatoes being a favorite. Ended with chocolate pudding and after dinner drinks, which was perfect. The restaurant is a bit loud when having a conversation, but the vibe was fun! Our server was excellent; the kitchen was busy, but she kept us informed about when our food would be out and we enjoyed each other's company while we waited. Live music was just starting as we were leaving and there was a great summer crowd out enjoying the evening. I would definitely recommend making reservations, which were very easy to make. read more

Atmosphere has great vibes. Drinks are good. Waitstaff pleasant and very attentive. The food however is awful! I ordered chicken wings. They had no flavor, served with ranch instead of blue cheese, no accompanying celery or carrots. In addition I got chili, the worst. It had no beans or other ingredients just hamburger meat so thick without any sauce. My husband had chicken Parmesan with rigatoni. Obviously microwaved sauce and reheated rigatoni. The chicken was dry without flavor. I would go back for drinks but would not eat there read more

Was excited by great reviews. Drinks- great Appetizers- beets, brussels, shishitos. All great. Pizzas- nothing special 1/2 chicken- lame sides, chicken plain, too $ Salmon- blah but ok, too $ Atmosphere- loud but fun and casual Service- terrific Would definitely go again for drinks and small plates read more
