I don't know why you didn't ever turn on your Air conditioner, because your place was all so dang hot that i couldn't even eat. Also, very cruel to have such a pregnant woman work in those conditions. She was there every day I was and seemed miserable. Shame on you and simply not cool!!
This place was great! My friend and I stopped by on a cold day after kayaking on the North Santiam, and I was in the mood for a burger, but the menu was so diverse and inviting, I actually had a really delicious open faced roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes. Tom had a prime rib sandwich. The deep-fried mushroom appetizer was perfect and irresistible. I loved the inviting atmosphere, with comfy booths. We were waited on by a super friendly, nice, attractive wait person -- she made us feel perfectly welcome. She explained the roast was cooked in house and so on. It was absolutely perfect and we'll be back! Wish I'd thought to take photos. Next time!
Had never been here before. I cant attest to the food, but it looks good. Stopped in on a 90+ degree summer day for a cold beer. Very, very friendly staff. Menu has modest prices and is typical small grill fare. Looking forward to trying the food.
Last week I was disheartened and appalled by the experience I had to endure at this locally beloved resaurant. I had heard wonderful things about the food and sevice at The Grill and was so was excited for a nice night out. Unfortunately, I had anything but. I'm not sure if she was new or what but this poor lady's so called server was horrible and made the atmosphere of the restaurant extremely uncomfortable. She wasn't wearing a nametag but she was hispanic, had bright red hair, unsightly neck/chest area tattoos, and was very loud and belligerent. She had taken the lady's order and returned to kitchen where she preceded to refer to the customer as "Big Bertha" in an annoyed tone and the look on that poor woman's face told me she had heard as well. My heart broke for her and was disgusted with the rest of my evening there. I have never heard a server use such profanity in front and around customers. Also, the use of the n-word I heard said out of her mouth was beyond description. I remain unsure and bewildered as to why such a hostile, rude, aggressive, and frankly unqualified/unprofessional employee would be working in the front of the house or there at all but it confirmed I will not be spending my money at that restaurant again. I love to support and eat and local establishments but if that's the service that is allowed there that is something I cannot support.
The Mill City Grill rose to the occasion, in a difficult time of fire and COVID. I and 26 of my closest motorcycle buddies descended on the scene in a time of service uncertainty. Our hostess, Lyna, took our orders and kept us watered and entertained while Bob, our cook, slaved to deliver 26 disparate orders together while still piping hot. We had to eat in the back and shuffle among too few seats. But when lunch finally arrived, the burgers were moist and the fries were crispy. We all knew how lucky we were to find accommodation. Thank you, Bob and Lyna, for a job well done. We'll be back...maybe, two at a time.
