I keep trying to go but it's always closed. I have been trying for a while between 5-7. Is this place open or not?

I posted this revues on Google and also sent an email to the restaurant explaining how frustrating…read moreour experience was. They neither responded to my email nor the review with any sort of explanation or apology which suggests that they don't really care. So I'll share this on Yelp too so others are aware of their poor customer service. We visited this restaurant with a group of seven and were excited to try it, especially because the outdoor seating area looked like a great spot for dinner. Unfortunately, the experience ended up being very disappointing. Service was extremely slow and disorganized from the start. About 15 minutes after ordering, a different waitress brought food to our table that we hadn't ordered, then quickly took it away without much explanation. From there, things only got worse. Our meals came out slowly over the course of 30-45 minutes, just one or two plates at a time, with no communication about the delays. Our four-year-old waited nearly 45 minutes for a simple order of fish sticks. Even basic service was lacking. We had to ask multiple times for something as simple as an apple juice refill, and it still took far too long to arrive. Toward the end of the meal, our waitress stopped checking on our table altogether, which made it difficult to order dessert. The food itself was pretty good, which is the only reason this isn't a one-star review. However, the poor service and lack of attentiveness completely overshadowed the experience. Overall, it was frustrating and disappointing, and we don't plan to return.

I am so happy that we have a new New Orleans restaurant in town! Oh my gosh! I have only been to…read moreNew Orleans once, so long ago, and the people I was with had us eating Italian. I have wanted Gumbo and Creole food and all the New Orleans goodness, but haven't experienced it in New Orleans. Oh my gosh, I walked in and was greeted by Andreas. (I hope that's how he spells his name.) He was very kind and patient and helpful with me. He pointed out the fun atmosphere inside. I looked at the menu and picked out: World Famous Gumbo over rice, Shrimp PO Boy, and the Sweep the Swamp PO Boy (Oysters, Shrimp, Crawfish, Gator) with Bayou Sauce, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles. And I got an order of the Fried Pickles too. YUM! I wasn't sure if my younger son would like his shrimp Po Boy. He loves shrimp, but he can be super picky about things. He wolfed it down. I am not entirely sure he was even hungry. But he ate it all. I ate part of my delicious Sweep the Swamp PO Boy. I am so full, I couldn't even eat 1/2. I will be having the rest of it probably for 2 more meals! So good. Wow. My other son isn't home and will have his Gumbo later. I am 100% positive I will be having a spoonful of that later. I was so happy to see they have the Beignet mix and coffee choices from Cafe du Monde. We just got back from Kona, Hawaii, and have so many bags of Kona coffee, so I didn't buy any of the Cafe du Monde coffee today. But I know I will be buying it in the future! An extra fun thing - Andreas gave me Marci Gras Beads too! Same color as my shirt. I think he picked them out since he knew I must like the color. What fun!!! A nice touch. Also, I needed to use the restroom while I was there, and it was nicely done up & clean. I will definitely be going back to this restaurant and food truck !!!! Go try it! Really good food, DELICIOUS.

I drove 40 minutes to get here to support my own and while their hours are listed as open on yelp…read moreand google, there are not here with no signage. Very disappointed.

We had a really good experience at The Mill Street Grill. We ordered the prime rib, steamed…read moremussels, and the barbecue platter. Everything was good, and the portions were generous. The prime rib was cooked well, the mussels were flavorful, and the barbecue platter had a good variety. The service was great--fast, courteous, and attentive without making us feel rushed. The restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere. It felt lively and energetic, but it was not too loud to have a conversation. Overall, this was a solid dinner and a place I would recommend when visiting Staunton. I would definitely eat here again.

Always love the restaurant, been going for nearly a decade, but I gotta ask, what's with the nearly…read more73-146% price hikes in less than two years? COVID -19 ended years ago, so what's the excuse when inflation is less than 5% annually. I would love to continue visiting, but I can't justify prices that egregiously expensive, particularly in this economy. And it seems to have started in 2025. See the photos. Mill Street BBQ Platter: $22.99 $40.99 (+78%) St. Louis Combo: $22.99 $40.99 (+78%) Flintstone Platter: $29.99 $51.99 (+73%) Beef Ribs Full Rack: $23.99 $58.99 (+146%) And before anyone blames beef prices: per the Bureau of Labor Statistics, retail ground beef went up about 24% from December 2024 to August 2026, and wholesale beef is only up about 3% over the past year. That doesn't come close to explaining a 146% jump on beef ribs. I hope the prices can come back down to Earth sometime soon. Fair pricing was always one of the primary reasons I recommended your restaurant.

Ordered the Fried Chicken with bacon collard greens ... Excellent! The chicken was hot and moist, and the breading was flavorful and crunchy. Menu said choice of brown gravy or jalapeño honey ... Waiter brought both as his MO (bonus!) ... I drank the rest of the brown gravy. Partner ordered the Jar BQ Burger ... She ate almost all of it, which is rare, but menu said "medium rare," but it was over-cooked. Fries were excellent. Loved the outdoor seating right at the end of downtown pedestrian mall. The downside? There was one restroom for men and ladies. The toilet didn't flush and was full ... When I saw it, I washed my hands and fled. Gross! Only reason this is not a 5-star review.

Our server was nice and attentive. The reason for the 3 stars is the food, it's average. I'll speak to the plates I tried, which were the Po Boy and the Red Snapper plate. Neither of those dishes stood out, where I could taste delight while eating them. I didn't feel they were made with love, moreso this is what it is. Another friend ordered the rib platter, which the meal was big in size, they could finish it.

Came here from Harrisonburg a little after noon on a Sunday after visiting a couple restaurants…read moreearlier that just had long waits or a menu that conflicted with my allergies. My girlfriend and I decided to come here because the reviews were great and we hoped that it wouldn't be crowded. And boy am I glad that we did! Do note that parking can be a bit awkward, we decided to park across the street in the post office parking lot which I'm not entirely sure was legal but it was a Sunday so they weren't open anyways. Immediately upon walking in you can take in the entire restaurant. Maybe ten tables, a little counter, and then two doors leading to the restrooms/kitchen respectively. The hostess sat us down immediately and I felt like we were treated so nicely. The small town vibes of the place really shown through. Seems like the place had a bunch of regulars too and the hostess was making conversation. I was torn between the Dayton burger and the waffle with breakfast meat, but ultimately went with the burger. I was not disappointed at all! The burger was cooked perfectly, super juicy and tender. It got a little messy but that's what you want out of a good burger. I also got a side of onion rings. They were very crispy and delicious, and paired well with their aioli. The sandwiches also come with a pickle spear on the side which I love. My girlfriend got the cali burger which was advertised as coming with guacamole. She said it tasted more like mashed avocado than true guacamole; nevertheless she enjoyed her burger. I will definitely be coming back here! Do yourself a favor and enjoy some delicious food while also supporting this super friendly local business.
