    Fried Cheese Sticks
    Dawson S.

    The food was excellent. Food was cooked as expected with the steak being perfectly cooked at a medium as I requested. Prices are reasonable for what you get at a more expensive restaurant. Service was quick and fast, waiters being very friendly and constantly coming back to check on us and get refills without question from us. The atmosphere was very calming and pleasant with a great country environment that will make anyone feel at home.

    This one is a tough review for me (I would give 2 1/2 stars). I love to find and support local businesses and really had high expectations for The Old Mill. It is a long standing staple in Dothan, Alabama. We were in town for Christmas and got here a day early so we wanted to have a nice meal. We got there at an average time for a Saturday night. We weren't really greeted but since there were only two of us we were sat immediately. There isn't any ambiance and not sure that anything has been updated since 1986. There is a full bar behind the hostess station where you can get drinks while you wait. Our server was the highlight of the evening as she was so pleasant and provided lots of "southern hospitality". She got our drinks quickly and we ordered the Cowboy Bites appetizer. It is a fried combination of sweet corn, jalapeño, cream cheese, and bacon. These were delicious! It had just the right amount of pepper flavor and I could clearly taste all four ingredients. They do ask if you would like some rolls which are homemade yeast rolls. These were ok. The tops were nice and soft but the bottoms were a bit overdone. For our entrees I ordered the 10oz ribeye and crab cake combo with a baked potato and steamed broccoli. My wife ordered the grilled chicken with the same sides. The chicken is topped with Swiss and sautéed mushrooms and onions. She opted for the onions only. Unfortunately, the entrees is where things went downhill. The chicken was not very well seasoned and although cooked well to maintain the moisture it just didn't have much flavor. The sautéed onions were mostly the skin of the onion so that was disappointing. Both of our steamed broccoli sides were steamed well but on the cooler side of lukewarm. My crab cake had some good flavor but the lemon butter sauce was much too salty which was surprising as that shouldn't be the case. My steak was also lukewarm at best although I will give credit that it was cooked a perfect medium and had nice flavor. Amazingly, the best parts of our meals were the cheapest parts which were the baked potatoes. Both were hot and fresh. Our food came out pretty quickly which made the lack of hot / fresh temp more disappointing. Our server did thank us for coming in, welcomed us back and wished us a Merry Christmas. In the end, the food quality definitely did not match the price.

    I was in town for a network meeting and wanted local fare and this Old Mill fit the bill for what i wanted. Amber was my server and she kept my water glass full. I ordered the 5oz cheeseburger and it was more than enough. The burger was juicy, the bun was toasted and a separate plate of toppings was provided so i could build my burger. I also had the bread pudding and it was very good. If I had one critique, it may be that the bread wasn't as soft as I like it, but the vanilla ice cream made up for it. If you want to support a local restaurant in Dothan, who makes great burgers, Old Mill is worthy of your money. One addition to this review, Amber brought me a to go water without me even asking and she used my first name when saying goodbye. This is a good, local, restaurant who knows how to treat a customer.

    Food was good. Service was okay, not as friendly or helpful as other places in Dothan. I would try it again.

    Good home cooked dinner. Side salad was a little small, dinner rolls were good, very hardy. Crab cakes were pretty good.

    We stopped here years ago and hoped the food was still the same. It might even be better than…read morebefore. We started with a bowl of gumbo. It was loaded with little bites of sausages, chicken, shrimp, and scallops. All those proteins were nestled with just the right amount of spices in a rich broth with onions and tomatoes. A nice helping of rice topped off the dish nicely. We shared the grilled catfish fillets. You have an option of one, two, or three fillets. We opted for three for only $21. The filets were good size and nicely grilled with a bit of blackening seasoning. The meal came with a single trip to the salad bar and a side. The salad bar has several options of pasta salads, chopped lettuce with toppings, and a sweet slaw. We chose the blackened new potatoes as our other side. We thought that they were really good. Bread options included: hush puppies, cheese, bread, or yeast rolls. The hush puppies were a little overdone. So we were able to get an order of the cheese bread. Which is large yeast rolls with cheddar cheese, baked in the top. They were really good. The servers are friendly and never seemed to stop moving. The seating is basic older restaurant booths and tables which are comfortable. They offer interesting sayings at each table such as... "I'm not saying it's your fault. I said I'm blaming you." They have a full bar and lounge. Side note-the parking lot is huge and has plenty of room for vehicles towing trailers.
