As we pulled up all of the cooks AND servers were sitting outside smoking right in front of the door. This was a huge turn off, but we decided to go against our gut and try anyway. Our waitress was fine, a little short, but ok. The other waitress was drinking a beer, had shorts that referred to illegal substances, and was not wearing any shoes throughout the restaurant and the multiple times she went outside. That is NASTY.
The food tasted good, but the atmosphere felt dirty.
I used to love the place. I’m so sad this happened.

Was there Saturday evening, waited 45 mins for meal, ended up getting it boxed up togo. Ordered a Reuben with fries... received rye bread with cheese and a hamburger pattie.... Gal picking up her food that was called in togo stated she ordered less than 30 mins ago and her food was sitting waiting for her. I was less than impressed!

Had the pizza. Hawaiian Style, Thin crust. It was very tasty, hot and fresh.
We try to try something different each time we go there and have not been disappointed yet. Waitress was friendly and attentive. Worth the trip to Milford for the food.

Local bar & grill. Hubby had the pizza burger...seemed like just a breaded hamburger patty. No cheese, marinara, etc. My salad was fresh. Popular place for a lunch burger. Never been there evenings.

They have a pasta night on Thursdays and it's a pretty good deal. You won't go home hungry cause it's all you can eat. They have all the fixings laid out and you put whatever you want in a bowl then take it to the chief and he makes the pasta right in front of you! I haven't been there for any of their other specials but the pasta night is awesome!

I'm here from Houston TX and this is one of my favorite places we've been here by far. One of the only places that offered pickle chips and were extraordinary. I got a burger and it was one of the best I've had while here, all my fellow Texan family member were huge fans of all the we ordered from the pork tenderloin to the chicken sandwich. I recommend all those near and far to make a trip to the mill creek Restaurant and lounge

The food was great, we all ate it without a single complaint! The service was nice, but could have been better. I had the grilled chicken sandwich and it was delicious! A member of my party had the pork tenderloin sandwich and he loved it as well. Great food for the price!

The server was friendly and the food was disappointing. The first order of onion rings arrived to the table burnt; the replacement was better and was only OK. I ordered a Cobb Salad that came with lunch meat, it should be removed from the menu. The waitress did not offer to refill our ice teas. I was hopping for better.

On a recent trip back home to Okoboji, I had a craving for a good old fashioned Burger 'n Fries. I was taken to Mill Creek. I wasn't too impressed with the dimly lit decor, but I am not rating the interior design. Besides, in my experience, the "Dives" are usually the best and Mill Creek did not disappoint. I swear, the cheeseburger from the first bite to the last was by far one of the very best, juiciest, seasoned-just-right and cooked perfectly Burgers I have ever had. So much so, I had to ask Sam if I could speak with the CHEF, Kolton. Kolton beamed with pride when

The only reason why this place is getting a 1 is because that's the lowest it will go. If you ever get the joy of sitting at the end of the bar with a full view of the kitchen I recommend it if you're prepared to walk immediately out of the establishment. Tonight we witnessed the cooks rubbing their eyes, nose and head and then turning to tend to food without washing their hands. One of the workers removed a bandaid on his finger, replaced it without washing his hands. There were people that had been there for two hours who still had not received their food. We obviously left hungry!

First visit to this restaurant tonight. Enjoyed the special of the night the rack of baby back ribs. Ribs were extra smokey and fall off the bone tender. Portions we're plentiful. Service was quick and the bill small. We'll be back! Definitely a great unexpected find in Milford.

It was ok. The waitress got not just one order wrong but two. When we said that was the wrong order she said oh I thought you said the 3 meat pizza when we said no she replied oh I really can't hear because you are lower from me. Would not come back and check on us eather. Had to go up to the bar to ask for more to drink. Not a good experience.

It's a bar, nothing out of the ordinary. They do have killer sweet potato fries. Unfortunate that they no longer have a salad bar that they advertise on here

The food was mediocre and the service was less than desirable. It took forever to be waited on and even longer to get our food. The wait staff acted inconvenienced by our slightest requests. This is the third time we have tried it with the same results each time. We will more than likely not be returning.

Half cooked fries, 'calzone' was a tortilla with tomato sauce and gross cheese. She not once asked us how our food was, we had to call her over if we needed anything and it was too loud so it was a lot of work... Then to get a refill i had to go searching for her.. Then she rolled her eyes and handed me it back after she filled it. Friends patty melt was burnt, and had no seasoning or anything.. Not happy, will not return.

Bar and Grill atmosphere; food is excellent; service is great. Recommend the reuben (healthy portion of meat) or the chicken parm. You can tell the manager and chef are invested in the business.
