Spacious | Fun | Ice Cream | carrots Spacious - The restaurant is very spacious, featuring both outdoor and indoor areas. When the weather is nice, the indoor space opens all its windows and doors, seamlessly blending with the outdoor area. This setup creates a great atmosphere, especially on summer or fall days. Fun -The restaurant has a great atmosphere with a mix of students, professionals, and others enjoying a fun vibe. Ice Cream - Right next to the restaurant, there's a cute ice cream shop that has a great selection of hard ice cream and delicious milkshakes. It's the perfect spot to wrap up your night, whether you're on a date, hanging out with your kid, or just treating yourself to something sweet. They have all kinds of flavors, from classic vanilla to fun seasonal options, so there's something for everyone. Plus, the friendly staff and cozy seating make it a nice place to enjoy your treat and make some fun memories. Carrots - the absolute highlight of the meal was the glazed carrots. They are the ideal side or appetizer dornthr group. One of the best sides I've had in 2025. Pro tip - They do not have a military discount. Pro tip - they do not have a ton of parking. So budget another 5-10 minutes to your travel.

Froze
Scarlett D.

Millie's was a great restaurant! Even after happy hour, it was packed which is always a good sign. We started with a Froze while waiting for outdoor seating. They were cool and refreshing and probably the best Froze i've has in a while. The only downside was the heat and bugs , it would've been great if they had fans or some kind of bug repellent to make it more comfortable. Now, let's get into the food: We began with the chips and trio dip (guac, queso, and salsa) simple, fresh, and delicious. It was the perfect starter to snack on while we waited. The quesadilla had zucchini in it, which was a refreshing twist. It was flavorful, filling, and a great way to sneak in some veggies. My friend loved it!The elote was creamy and well-seasoned I could've done without the nuts or seeds on top, but I'd still order it again without it. The Rockfish was the star of the night crispy on the outside, perfectly flaky on the inside. It was served over jasmine rice that was green (maybe cilantro-based?) and absolutely delicious. 10/10! We ended dinner with some ice cream from the stand outside the restaurant. I got s'mores, and my friend had vanilla with Oreos. Both were tasty and a fun way to finish off the night. Our server was fantastic friendly and attentive. Overall, we had a great time and I'd definitely come back to try more from the menu!

Food was kind of bland, especially the crab fried rice. Didn't really get the umami taste or flavor. The dish just overall lacked the depth of flavor but I guess it's expected from a place that doesn't specialize in an Asian dish. The quesadillas were decent but nothing worth revisiting. They could get a bit greasy since the peppers, steaks and onions were all sautéed in oil and covered in melted cheese. Overall the quesadilla flavors didn't really meld together for an overall better taste.

I tried a variety of dishes including the lobster dinner, lobster roll, lobster spring roll, and the branzino, and unfortunately each one was just mediocre. None of the dishes stood out in terms of flavor or execution, which was disappointing given how appealing the menu sounded. The atmosphere is nice and the service was solid, but the food just didn't live up to the hype. With such a strong focus on seafood, I expected the lobster dishes especially to shine, but they fell flat. Overall, Millie's felt more like a spot for the vibe than for the food. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT6qm7Bjc/

We had a great meal at Millie's and I am so glad I finally got to try my friend's regular local spot. I had the trio of dips (that queso! ), potstickers, frose (omg!!!), chicken sandwich but grilled and topped things off with s'mores ice cream. Super cute atmosphere and the food is like an elevated Chilis/Fridays and a step below The Smith.

Lobb Salad, crudo, Swordfish Kebob, clam chowder

Everything was amazing. Food, service, super dog friendly, family friendly, and a great vibe!

I did that they could take a big group reservation. We were 15 people and they were able to provide separate checks. Ryan was very efficient in taking our orders. I got the riptide, which was amazing and the potstickers. While I liked the sauce, it was a little overpowering. The meat was also cooked variably inside-my first potsticker had a little bit of pink and the last one I ate was a tad overcooked and tough. They were pork and shrimp, though I only tasted pork. Loved my drink and will come back for more!

A great energetic neighborhood vibe with a diverse menu, great service and yummy food! Marjorie was our server and she was wonderful. We had various tacos and sandwiches, plus the shrimp/oyster starter and biscuits with jam. Everything was wonderful -- very impressed with how perfectly cooked and chilled the shrimp were. Lots of thought goes into the sides too -- the bean salad and mixed rice that accompanied the mains were delish. Decor is charming. Staff were plentiful and attentive. Only wish is for salt and pepper on the table. The tacos could have used a bit, and we all like black pepper on our raw oysters.

Avocado toast with eggs
Lilianne N.

It's an alright place! Sometimes the service is better than other times!!! Food quality is mediocre and service is not terrible! Overall the dishes we ordered were not something to hold your breath for, but if you are hungry and need to grab a bite,then why not give it a try. My food was kind of on a smaller plate, the avocado was placed on a small piece of toast!!! Was not like your expected avocado multigrain toast. More like a kids size! No joke Prices have gone up sizes went down lol We will make this restaurant our last option, if we had to go again.

Clam chowder
Jenny T.

I wonder why reviews are so low. We thoroughly enjoyed this place. I thought the lobster roll was yummy and refreshing -- you can get it hot or cold. Cole slaw was okay. The clam chowder was very tasty. Service was fine, we didn't have to make a reservation surprisingly but we were there in between lunch and dinner prime times. It was still pretty packed though.

I came here to watch the US Open. The atmosphere attracts sports fans and families inside and outside on the spacious patio. You can tell this is a big neighborhood spot. The bar area only has two TVs, so it was split between tennis and a football game. Millies made their own Honey Deuce drink that fans were getting at the US Open. I have no idea how it compares to the actual one, but it was very good, sweet, and pretty looking! Lots of seafood options to choose from on the menu. I decided to take mine in the form of a taco, the Esther Island. The scallops and rest of the filling were delicious. I could only finish the two tacos and had to box up the rice salad, which was also very good. There was a little bit of a delay in getting my food even though I ordered quickly. I don't know if there was some confusion amongst servers. Still worth the wait though! This is really ideal for a casual hangout spot with friends or family, but I can tell it can get pretty busy. Driving by it always looks popular!

My wife said, as she returned to the car with the takeout, that Birdsong was not crowded. To stay…read moreby the side of our elderly dog, we are foregoing the experience of dining out, more and more. After we finished eating, she remarked we needed to visit the restaurant sometime. We'll have to look for an opportunity when we are around the dog all day, so she can be on her own for a couple of hours, likely sleeping. Birdsong already is acclaimed. This is much more Thai and Thai American. Like Chinese or Italian cuisine before it, Thai flavors have assimilated to a palate not accustomed to the true strength of the spices. Birdsong is a remedy. They do not offer the pad thai that has become a staple, no longer exotic but to its detriment. (A digression. The history of pad thai, with contested origins, is fascinating. As you delve into these matters, you see how syncretic culture is. You also are exposed to the efforts to fashion a unifying mythology.) We ordered the chicken, the shrimp, the crab fried rice, the papaya salad, and the enhancement. The chicken and the shrimp were quality ingredients, prepared well. Although both proteins were fried, they felt clean. The crab fried rice was one option of many with the rice base. The papaya salad was fresh. The enhancement was radish with "fermented daikon, garlic, red onion, cilantro, palm sugar, and fish sauce scrambled with eggs for a balanced savory and sweet flavor," and the portion was generous: we put it on the rice, then I finished it off in an omelet the next morning. We have traveled to Bangkok. Thai spiciness exceeds what I would endorse, and I love hot dishes. Birdsong was much milder, though with sufficient pepperiness my wife, who does not share my preferences, remarked it was closer to her limit. They will work with you in this respect, and I'm confident I could request something that would test my capabilities. That is, in my book, all positive. The dishes that were mild according to the menu, were mild, but they were flavorful. If you do not like fish sauce, for example, you may not appreciate the offerings, which if they don't have fish sauce have something along those lines. I hope Birdsong fares well.

We were looking forward to eating at Birdsong, which has gotten great reviews. A few friends said…read morethat they went and loved it. But we thought only one of the four dishes we ordered was especially good, I wouldn't order the other three again. The Basil Shrimp - described as "Battered and golden fried" seemed more like tempura. I wouldn't have ordered if I knew. The Tom Yum soup was good, but very pricey at $25. For comparison, a similarly sized, likely an even larger entree Tom Yum soup at Bambu is $14. It had lots of noodles. We were sharing, and asked our server for recommendations- she suggested a second dish with the same noodles. Usually a server points out if diners are ordering two dishes with the same base ingredient (noodles) but our server actually suggested the second one. Seriously? And unfortunately, it was underwhelming, just blah. We left most of it. We got the chocolate crème brûlée, the presentation was very nice, with gilded peanuts on top. The taste was just so so, sweet but not much chocolate flavor. We liked the decor and the atmosphere was nice. We loved the bird mural. Service was mixed. Our server was friendly, but could have been more helpful. First, the recommendation for a second dish with the same noodles was not a good one. We asked if we could share everything, including the soup. We specifically asked if they could put it into bowls for us. They brought two bowls, but we had to wait a while for a spoon to divide it ourselves at the table. She ended up bringing us one of those small soup spoons that you often use for soup at Chinese restaurants. It was around the same size as a regular soup spoon. Apparently they didn't have anything that is more like a ladle, and it was not very useful for portioning out the soup. We thought we'd love this restaurant, but it was a miss for us tonight. Not only that, and this is on us, the only dish with any real nutrition or healthy ingredients was the soup. For one "small plate" appetizer, two entrées and one dessert, the total was just under $100.

The burger that my husband ordered looked a little undercooked for the medium he requested. The pasta dishes my party ordered were more of a 3/5. Didn't get dessert but it looks like they have a lot of delicious-sounding options! Service: 5/5 server was kind and attentive, poured my bottled beer at the table with a perfect pour, and updated us when drinks were being made and the food was getting plated. Ambiance: decor includes planes/boats/trains, tables are not too close together, lots of tables available. I have been here with parties as large as 7 and sat comfortably. Parking lot/garage available about 2-3 minutes of a walk depending where you get a spot. I believe you can get your ticket validated.

I don't usually leave negative reviews, but this experience needs to be shared--primarily due to…read morehow poorly it was handled by management. From the beginning, there was a clear lack of leadership and accountability from the manager, Sandra. When issues came up, she was dismissive, disengaged, and made no real effort to resolve anything. Instead of listening or taking ownership, her response came across as defensive and indifferent, which only made the situation worse. What was most concerning was how a serious situation between guests was handled. One customer approached another and made racially inappropriate remarks. In today's environment, that kind of behavior requires immediate and thoughtful intervention to keep everyone safe and respected. Unfortunately, Sandra did not step in appropriately and instead contributed to the escalation. Situations like this aren't just uncomfortable--they can quickly become serious and reflect poorly on the business. As someone who books a significant number of corporate events, I pay close attention to how businesses handle challenges like this. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this location--especially while this level of management is in place. The one bright spot was Ally, the bartender. She was attentive, kind, and clearly cared about the customers despite everything happening around her. She handled herself professionally and was the only reason the experience wasn't a complete loss. Mistakes happen, but how they're handled matters. Until there's a clear improvement in management, I wouldn't return or recommend this place.

Another wonderful meal at Macon…read more My friend and I shared everything. We started with deviled eggs. They were amazing. We shared the house salad and Steak Frites . FABULOUS!!!!

They are awaiting their liquor license approval so we brought our own wine and they brought out a wine holder with ice to chill the bottle. The staff was warm and courteous.

There was an empty table next to us on the other side, but ideally we would have been sat there originally if they knew someone had a reservation at that table. We did feel a little cramped sitting between two tables with only a little bit of space between us, when we could have been sat in a different area. Overall our meals were good, no complaints, portion sizes were nice. We had the chicken and waffles, nicoise salad, shrimp po'boy, and caprese sandwich. We ordered coffee at the end of the meal and it was a french press, but when poured it was incredibly bitter and full of coffee grounds. We had to send it back and ask for a new one. Our waiter was very nice, service was a little slow with the drinks given it was not very busy, and they didn't have ingredients for one of the drinks we ordered. Overall the outing was fine.
