The food in here is incredible - and the service was amazing. They accidentally got someone's order wrong and really went out of their way to correct it. Definitely going back.

Today's walk was from Ballymena to Gracehill, called into Millside just after it opened at 1200. We were shown to a table quickly. The order was taken shortly after the food arrived as requested. The food was excellent and cooked fresh. Chicken was available either battered or breaded.

The food is great! We didn't have a reservation, but they got us a table. We only got the 2 main courses, but it's enough for our family. We got our little one the kid's meal, their kid's chicken bites are perfectly cooked "real chicken". You can tell, it's hand-battered real chicken nuggets. We got the roast beef and the turkey and ham. Food was all good!

Six of us dined in this two storey restaurant including two kids. The food was delicious. I had steak strips with fried mushrooms and pepper sauce for £20 which included a portion of champ. They even had proper Colman’s English mustard the world’s greatest mustard. My wife had a chicken in pepper sauce with properly seasoned mash and butter was offered and accepted. The kids meals are about £8 with a drink and a dessert that included a small steak with a mini pan of pepper sauce so while granddaughter stuck with sausages and chips, grandson chose the kids steak and he really enjoyed it. He got his first steak in an Outback Steakhouse in Orlando a few weeks ago. Staff are genuinely warm and friendly folks. I was disappointed in the quality of the cappuccino I ordered - they could do with upping their game on coffees. Still a 5 star experience though.

Hadn't eaten here in a while and called back to try this restaurant again recently. The food was good and plentiful, the early bird menu is very good value for money. We all had a different choice from the menu and everyone was happy with their order, will certainly return. Staff are all lovely, very pleasant and helpful.

Young girls are very unprofessional towards male partners, didn’t acknowledge females of the party at the start, or giving menus etc - continued to stare intently at males any time at table. The males felt very uncomfortable and after tonight my partner doesn’t want to return. We ate in both restaurants this month, Sat 13th and 31st Jan, same experiences with two young waitresses with blonde hair. It has been commented in our work circles and wider friends of similar experiences. It’s a pity as the food is beautiful but just a very strange atmosphere and when working professionals, it is nice to enjoy an evening out. We have never experienced that level of unprofessionalism elsewhere. I rarely leave a poor review but would go elsewhere for service.

We enjoyed a triple birthday celebration with extended family on a Saturday afternoon at Millside. We arrived a differing times, yet that was not an issue for the staff. We all enjoyed our main course dishes, desserts and coffees. Every single dish was delicious. I had the Bang Bang Chicken with half rice and half chips. Followed by profiteroles which were beautifully presented as well as being very tasty. The staff are so hospitable and go out of their way to ensure that everyone's needs are met. Highly recommended

My wife and I called here on the recommendation of a friend. We wanted a more substantial lunch than just our usual sandwich. She had the Chicken Maryland with garlic wedges which had a large chicken fillet with sausage, bacon, pineapple and banana fritters as well as peas and a wee bite of salad. There was a generous portion of large potato wedges doused in garlic butter. I had the breaded chicken goujons with chilli potato wedges which offered 5 large goujons with a wee bite of salad and a generous portion of large wedges doused in chilli sauce. This was excellent food at very reasonable prices and offered a very substantial meal. Very highly recommended!!

I had heard about this place a lot and we went for dinner. Being minded to save money we chose the 'early bird' menu, and we were not alone in this as the place was packed. We had booked and got a table upstairs. We were, however, sort of squashed into the corner due to a very large group beside us, but at least a partition divider had been placed between them and us. It also seems there is not a great deal of ventilation in the place and although we were beside an open window, it had to be shut given the flies and – more annoyingly – wasps coming in that were hovering around us. So quite stifling. And I noted a number of flies buzzing around downstairs too. The staff were, however, very good and friendly as well as helpful. The early bird menu was good value and we chose well, I think. The steak strips in pepper sauce were not all that appealing to look at, and came more as a stew than anything else. But it tasted very good. The other dishes seemed to be pleasing and certainly worth the money.

This was our third visit and unfortunately we were left disappointed. The staff, as always, were very pleasant and helpful but the food was left a bit wanting. I ordered the chicken with a whiskey sauce. The chicken was bland and tasteless. The sauce must have had a dash of whiskey as it was barely noticeable. The seasonable vegetables were ok but swimming in liquid. My husband’s fish was more batter than fish although my daughter’s fish was great. The pavlova was excellent although the chocolate fudge pudding was a bit dry. The quality and consistency of food wasn’t up to the same standard as on the previous two occasions.
